THE WINNERS SHERE are several football on Saturday and the old urge to tempt Fate and predict the winners is on us once again. Things we have read, things we have heal'd, bits of dope gathered hither and yon, all go to make up our estimate of various teams’ chances. If some of the information is not accurate that our bad luck. We have tried as much as humanly possible not to let prejudices interfere with our best judgment based on whatever information we may have. In most cases we are relying on what others have seen and reported. None of the predictions is guaranteed. So many things can happen. If anyone was sure of the outcome of the various games there would be no need (o play—no liO|>e for the underdog—no excitement at alj. We will begin right at home. I.uckily we can pick the home club and Will not get in bad right at the start. BUTLER should defeat Franklin by three touchdowns, at least. The Baptists probably will not be able to stop the local back field. WISCONSIN is likely to de- * feat Purdue in a fierce battle. The Badgers will gradually wear down a game Boilermaker eleven. NORTHWESTERN must be given the edge over Indiana, but Pat Page’s teams always have a chance and an upset is possible. The Purple, however, is a 2 to 1 choice on a local board. NOTRE DAME should have a rather easy time with Penn State. We look for a"margin of three touchdowns favoring the “Irish.” Rockne’s men may not open up hut they will get enough scores at South Bend to make it decisive. It is always dangerous to predict a Chicago defeat, but PENNSYLVANIA 'looks too strong and should win /by at least one touchdown. OHIO STATE appears to have all the best of It at Columbia. A great array of backs should make life miserable for the New York school. It’ looks like a couple of touchdowns advantage < for the Buckeyes. ILLINOIS will ratable agaimti lowa. Zuppke has just about everything and the decisiveness of the count is going to surprise the dopes tors. MICHIGAN is the choice over Minnesota but it may bo closer than some imagine. The Gophers have a pounding attack and the Wolverines lost three of that great 1925 line. If Minnesota gets on the rOn Michigan will pile up a score, otherwise look out for a nip-and-tuck affair. DARTMOUTH at Yale looks like a toss-up. From this distance it appears to he the toughest game in the East. The Dartmouth team is given the edge. Both are exceptionally strong—a battle of giants. The NAVY may surprise Princeton. Neither team at this present moment appears as strong as in the past. The Tigers 'always are slow starters. They were mediocre in their first two games. It is another even-Stephen affair. ARMY’ must be give the slight margin over Syracuse. But here is another chance for an upset. Not many points are going to separate those two elevens when the final gun is fired Saturday evening. GEORGETOWN is supposed to have a strong club and so is given the prq-game verdict over West Virginia.’ As Kansas failed to show a tot against Wisconsin last week, Kansas AGGIES are given the choice in the all-Kansas game, a feature of the Missouri Valley conference. In the South, Alabama and Georgia Tech go round and round. It is one of those .toss-up affairs as far as advance dope goes. Use your own judgment. We sorta lean toward GEORGIA TECH. After the results come in, kindly refrain from writing in any letters telling us how far off we were. We will realize it and will be told about it. Undoubtedly there will be There always are. * * * ImIHE players of the short I priced favorites have had a L ’ terrible time of it during the first three days of fall meeting 1 at Latonia track. The choices have been going down with sickening thuds. Wednesday not a favorite won. Susan Rebecca, Goohogan and J. Marrone 111 were backed to even money and less, but that did not make any difference. Susan was second, Coohogan third and Joe out of the money. • The form players are gasping for air and the bank rolls are fast disappearing.

The game at Ann Arbor will be the first conference clash of the season for both teams.

Illinois will meet its last year’s jinx, lowa, at Urbana and Coach Zuppke has made no predictions that the ’ ‘ifighting Illini,” will take a handy win. Zuppke declared he was not yet satisfied after Butler’s defeat by the Illini last Saturday and has put his men through a week of gruelling practice. year lowa sprung a surprise attack in the last few minutes of play to defeat Illinois by a small margin. AVisconsin has been making threats during the week of rushing the Purdue eleven with an aerial attack at Lafayette. If such is the case there will be plenty of passes fiying as Purdue is noted for its overhead game. Northwestern will meet India Via at Evanston, 111., Vith a strong line-, up.

Wisconsin at Purdue Features State Games— Franklin Plays Here. By William J. Dunn, Os United Press Staff. Indiana grid teams are marking time today, after a week of hard work in preparation for several stiff games which dot the Saturday schedule. Probably the best college game in the State will be played at J.afayette when Purdue clashes with Wisconsin. Wisconsin defeated Purdue, 7 to 0, last year and Purdue is anxious for revenge. The Boilermakers have shown strength In their first two games of the year and are conceded a-fighting chance with the Badgers. Indiana will Invade Evanston, 111., to do battle with Northwestern and Coach Pat Page is confident his men will give the Purple Wildcats a battle. Indiana has a fast team year, but football critics are hardly willing to concede them an even pre-game rating with the veteran Northwestern aggregation with Lewis, Baker & Cos., in action. At South Bend Notre Dame is expected to stop Penn State in short order when the easterners take the field at South Bend. Notre Dame is anxious to make up for the 0-0 tie they played with Coach Huge Bezdek's men last year and critics feel they have the stuff to turn the trick. •Franklin comes to Indianapolis for its annual battle with Butler and Coach Hinkle’s Bulldogs will be the favorites. Franklin displayed strsngtTi in victory over State Normal last week. Saturday will be "Old Gold day" at De Pquw and alumni of the Greencastle school will gather to see the Tigers battle Earlham. De Pauw is favored to drop the Quakers, although Earlham has shown much improvement in the past two weeks with victories over Cedarville and Indiana Central. The Tigers are crippled by the loss of Sturtrldge. Teachers at Wabash Terre Haute Normal will meet Wabash at Crawfordsvllle and the Little Giants are overwhelming favorites. Wabash is crippled tyday, but should be able to handle the Teachers with little trouble. Rose Poly will be the under-dog again Saturday when it meets Evansville on the Purple Ace's home field. Evansville is favored to win handily over the Terre Haute Engineers. ATncennes and Manchester meet at North Manchester. Muncie Normal and'lndiana Central were to meet at Muncie In the only college game scheduled for today within the State.

INJURIES CHANGE OUTLOOK Star Back Field Men Reported Out at Yale and Princeton Saturday. Bu Times Socrial NEW Y’ORK, Oct. 15.—Injuries to college foot! ill stars this week have changed materially the forecast as to the outcome of Saturday's important eastern games. Yale, needing every ounce of power to stave off the Big Green team which Jess Hawley has brought down from Hanover, has lost Bruce Caldwell, her best running back. Dartmouth became a favorite when the outstanding Ell half back sprained an ankle. Tad Jones apparently needs ankle braces for his Bulldog squad, as Bill Webster, the veteran right guard, also is incapacitated. Hawley, with his squad in first class shape, was to work his men out in the Yale, bowl this afternoon. Princeton, which always hard for victory over the Navy must! get along against the Midshipmen, Saturday, without Jake Slagle, the great Tiger triple-threat man. Slagle, who eluded Yale and Harvard tacPlers last season, fell out of the New Jersey “Alps” while-on a geology expedition and injured himself so that he cannot play against the Navy. Captain Davis also may bo missing from the Prlncton line-up, in which case the Middies will be favorites.
