'Hmrnniniiiiinniiiiiiitiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiuiiinininnniiißiiiuu \tirrin’ f*the DOPE By VEDDER GARD

Os |UT at Irwin field on Saturday between halves of the franklin - Butler football game two rabbits sorely disappointed the spectators. After the freshman snake dance the youths gathered around while the two bunnies were turned loose. Evidently the cotton-tails were too excited to run. They hunched up close to the ground and did not ,use any of their vaunted speed. A couple of freshies hesitated to give the bunnies a chance and then pounced on them. The crowd boo-ed. This all reminds us of the timeworn story about the wrestler who was put in the ring with a bull. The animal refused to exert itself and calmly permitted the grappler to twist its neck. The fans yelled their disapproval. The matman became angry and stepped to the side of the ring, explaining, “Say, youse birds, this bull may be faking, but I’m not.” Now, folks, those rabbits might have been faking, but the freshmen were in earnest. Don’t blame the boys. * * * | The Army football team got in some good experience in their chosen calling—that of fighting in tlie Syracuse game Saturday. Press reports say that Syracuse resorted to cleats and fists when skill on the gridiron failed. * * * ®F we are not very much mistaken this tall boy Lyons of Franklin should be a whizz on the basketball floor this winter. He was just a string bean in his freshman year. He developed last season as a sophomore and was getting bigger and heavier. He also was learning how to handle those long legs. Lyons, is playing an end on the Franklin eleven, and if he is not injured, the grid experience and the accompanying physical development should make him a real court luminary. Just wait and see. * * * * Extra! Extra! Harvard won a football game. * * * SHIS ought to make YVabasn “mad.” A story from Minnesota says the Gophers will have a week off this Saturday when they meet the Scarlet. The Swedes need a slight rest after playing Notre Dame and Michigan, undoubtedly two of the best, but whether they will get it against Wabash is rather problematical. * Vaughan’s outfit is not in ‘be habit of serving tea on the gridiron. They’re plenty tough and >will give the Swedes an interesting matinee. * • • Coach Duggan of Franklin deserves quite a bit of credit for putting a fighting outfit on the field against Butler last Saturday. Ed hasn’t so very many gridders, but what there is of them, surely battles. The big sophomore linemen effectively stopped Butler’s fast backs. * • • ET is said by those who have witnessed Notre Dame in action this ypar that Niemic in the backfield makes Flanagan look slow And this is no reflection on Flanagan. Some football write-ups had the "Irish” crippled because of the loss of Boland and Collins. Knute missed those players just like the seashore would miss a couple grains of sand. Collins is a back field man. “Rock” has a. half dozen or more better ones. Boland was undoubtedly a loss/at tackle, but Miller, a recent find, who had not played •football before, was giving the veteran a battle for the berth at the time Boland was injured. Miller played on the baseball team. Football is an epidemic at. the South Bend school. Ts a man doesn’t have it when he arrives, he catches It. * • * I-owis ami Baker of Northwestern may not be very good students in the classroom, but on the gridiron they are teachers.

NOTRE DAME-NORTHWESTERN, ILUNOIS-MICHIGAN THIS WEEK

YALE IS STRONG IN EAST Defeat of Dartmouth Boosts Eli’s Stock —Pennsylvania Routs Chicago. Ha United Prc*x NEW YORK, Oct. -18.—While the eastern football season Is not half over, several of Saturday’s developments were almost a climax. Dartmouth tasted her first defeat in two years at the hands of Yale. Harvard came forth from her schooling days and signs of j’eal power against William and Mary . The Army downed Syracuse and tthe Navy beat crippled Princeton. Pennnsylvania took Alonzo Stagg’s Chicago eleven and sent it home whipped. Yale's 14 to 7 defeat of the Big Green team left no doubt of the superority of the Blue eleven. Jones’ warriors must be reckoned with as among the likeliest contenders for the mythical eastern crown. Yale won, playing Dartmouth’s superbly developed aerial game, and should have had two more touchdowns. Harvard Better Harvard last year found William and Mary a tough little southern opponent, but this year romped away to first victory of the year, 27 to 7. Horween's first Crimson charges showed smoother and potentiallly more promising*vigor than had been expected. The Army, after a struggle, beat Syracuse, 27 to 21, and the Navy found the badly crippled Princeton eleven a victim, 27 to 13. The score was an upset, however, for Princeton loid been rated much stronger. Pennsylvania’s 27 to 0 win over Chicago has made her one of the favorites for the Eastern championship The Western eleven was outclassed. Intersections) The intersecthinal clashes in Greater New York aroused the metropolitan gridiron fans and brought surprises in their wake. Ohio State came east after Columbia and returned with the scalp, 32 to 7. N v Y. U. sent home to New Orleans last year’s undefeated Tulane tetlm, with a 21-to-0 defeat. Cornell beat Michigan State 24 to 14 and proved again that Dobit has a good team. Holy Cross trimmed Rutgers 21 to 0 as expected after showing Harvard she was to be feared, \\;hile Pittsburgh won over (Colgate 19 to 16.

PURDUE SURPRISES AND N. D. KEEPS SPEEDING Boilermakers Go to No Decision With Badgers—Rockne’s Army Delivers—Butler Beats Franklin.

There were a couple of things to get excited about in Saturday's football games in which State college teams were the participants. Notre Dame’s 28 to 0 victory over Penn State at South Bend .showed the “Irish" to be one of the out-standing clubs of the year. Coach Rockne has so many highclass players that it doesn't seem to make much difference which of his performers are in there. The result is about the same. The other high spot was Purdue’s great fight against Wisconsin The Boilermakers could not win, but held

SHOW STUFF J. J. C.s Play Snappy Ball in 7 Victory. The local J. J. C. eleven showed plenty of pep Sunday at Washington Park in defeating the Louisville Goldbergs, 25 to 7. Loomis, former Dartmouth player, scored three of the touchdowns for the locals. He hit like a ton of brick behind a line that was charging hard. Phillips made the other score. The Indianapolis team scored three touchdowns in the first half and one in the second. The giant linesman, George Fisher, former I. U. star, made a hit with the crowd. Burns, former Franklin College player, another new one, was in the line at guard. Jackson and Seidensticker also showed up well In the locals’ back field. Louisville’s score was the result of a fumble which gave the Kentuckians the hall only two yards from the J. J. C. goal, BASS VS. GARCIA Bu United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 18.—Benny Bass of Philadelphia will meet Frankie Garcia, Spanish featherweight, in a twelve-round bout In Brooklyn tonight. In the ten-round semi-final Sergt. Sammy Baker will meet Irish Johnny Jordan. N. Y. GRIDDERS LOSE Bv United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 18.—The National League football season opened here Sunday with the Frankford Yellow Jackets from Philadelphia wdnning over the New York Giants, 6 to 0. PRO GOLF MATCH Bn United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 18 —The first half of the seventy-two-hole exhibition match between Johnny Farrell and Joe Turnesa against Gene Sarazen and MacDonald Smith ended Sunday at the Fairview Country Club with the Farfell-Turnesa team In the lead, 3 up. The match will be concluded next Sunday.

Two Football Contests Stand Out in. Mid-West Next Saturday. By Clark B. Kelsey United Preafi Staff Correxpondent CHICAGO, Oct. 18.—Two important games stand out on next Saturday’s football schedule ns midwestern teams swung into mid-season practice today. These contests may determine sectional and intersectional championships. Illinois plays Michigan at Ann Arbor, and smart football men are of the opinion that the winner of this battle will be at the top of the heap when the Big Ten conference standing is counted up. Northwestern University takes on Notre Dame in the New Stadium in Evanston. Northwestern’s Wildcats for two years have been Coach Knute Rockne's greatest menace Last year an inspired rally in the fourth quarter pulled the Irishmen from behind to win when defeat seemed certain. This year's Notre Dame team looks about as good as the 1924 “'Four Horsemen” team. It Is a workmanlike organization, and is sure to rank as one of the strongest in the country. Northwestern likewise has a better team than last year's. Determine Status Saturday’s game is sure to de termlne the status of “Moon” Baker. ‘Tiny” for the Purple, and Christy Flanagan and Johnny Niemic of Notre Dame as candidates for All-American honors. Another game vital to western Conference fans is the contest of Hawkeye against Buckeye at Ohio stadium. Columbus. Ohio heat Columbia easily last Saturday, while lowa was loser by a one touchdown margin to Illinois. The game is important In that it will give a line on just how Coach Jack Wilce’s highly touted team stacks up'against competition In Its own league. Coach A. A. Rtagg at Chicago this week goes through his annual business of “fearing Purdue.” He will have reason to do so this year. Although Stagg’s Maroons hal*e an Impressive winning record over the Boilermakers, this year’s Purdue team is the strongest In a decade. Wilcox Threat Saturday it held the strong Wisconsin team to a 0-0 score, and a back-field star. "Cotton” Wilcox, loomed up as a far superior article to any offensive man on Stagg’s squad. Wisconsin tackles Indiana, and should he Hhle to win. as did Northwestern last Saturday. Minnesota, comparatively shaking, takes a week off after defeats at the hands of two of the best teams in the country, Notre Dame and Michigan, and plays Wabash. In the Missouri valley conference the Nebraska game against Kansas, at Lawrence, and Missouri against lowa at Ames, stand out as the most important contents.

the Badgers, 0 to 0, and had the Wisconsin eleven striving mightily to stop Wilcox and Koransky in the second half. Phelan Builds Well Jimmy Phelan seems to have a team that is going to be tough for any of them to fool around with. Indiana U. turned back the driving Northwestern backs for three periods, only to wilt in the final quarter when the Purple scored three touchdowns. Lewis and Baker are two of the toughest hack Held men in the Big Ten. At Irwin field Butler was rather lucky to win. A ball batted out of the passer's hands was picked up by Geisert who ran fifty yards for a touchdown. Collier place-kicked the extra point. That was all the scoring. The big Franklin line, made up largely of sophomores, put up a great battle. The Baptists did not show much on the offense until the fourth quarter when they suddenly came to life. Stopped on Four-Yard Line They punched and passed their way down the field to the Butler 4yard line. Butler rose to the occasion and stacked ’em up. An incomplete pass over the goal line on fourth down gave Butler the ball. De Pauw showed improvement to defeat Earl ham, 34 to 6. Sturtridge started despite injuries. The Tigers are bent on downing Butler here next Saturday. Wabash had no trouble defeating State Normal, 33 to -6. Scarlet reserves were in most of the time and Pease distinguished himself by scoring three touchdowns. Other Manchester. 33; Vin cennes. 0. Evansville. 7: Rose Poly, 6. Oakland, 0; Hanover, 0.

The Ash Pile By Eddie

The way Chunk Helvie backed up the J. J. C. line Sunday it seemed he was trying to knock his opponents all the way back to their old Kentucky home. Who cowlm Albright College? Maybe the Albright boy* are all so smart they don't need a tutor. Our idea of a snappy job would be to scout the Juanita Collebe team Just to hour the referee shout before the kick-off: “Are you ready, Juanita?” And then there is Mtllsap t'ollege, where the referee must be careful with his accent when asking the home boys if they are set. Does slagg fear Purdue again? We’ll say lie does, and lie'll be on the square with his fear this fall. Indianapolis bank bandits wore light topcoats and fall soft hats. They can afford to wear the best. President American Prison Association says none of bold crooks of today “comes up with Jesse James.” Old -Jesse’s gang didn’t have machine guns and fast autos. And smooth, paved highways on which to make a getaway. Many people are inclined to the beliaf, however, that Jesse James was merely a naughty hoy compared with some modern bandits. He was a robber and looked like one. Being without schooling like present day crooks, and being rough and tough, he’d roll his “chew” from one Cheek to another, squirt a stream of nicotine and shout: "Stick up them paws, drat ye!” The boys nowadays make a survey of a hank, hold a conference, visit a tonsorlal parlor for a shave, manicure, marcel and shine, drive slowly to the bank, saunter in and leisurely 'go Jo work. They must / be very' careful of fhefr apearanee and language, or somebody might suspect them of being crooks. They have a breath of old Spain in their display of galfantily. They not only hold up a hank—they serenade It. In the Home Brew League Is it the kind you cook, or is it “no boil?” Quit crabbing, you’re drinking it. Let’s go to that place where you get a kiss with every can.

LEGION WINS Kokomo Finds South Bend Pro Gridders Easy. /? ?/ T ittir* $ nee in I KOKOMO, Ind., Oct. 18.—The South Bend Pros were no match for the local Legion eleven team here Sunday and were swamped, 28-0. The visitors, coached by .Jim Thorpe, were woefully weak on offense. The first quarter was scoreless, but in the second period Hungate broke through and blocked a kick by Dunlap, and when the ball bounded over the goal line the former Butler star pounced on it for a touchdown. A few minutes later Carmen tackled Letsinger. who fumbled, and Raj’ picked up the bail and raced thirty yards for another touchdown. Hilgeman ended the third period with a twenty-yard dash for a counter and later Hunneson raced around the end for a score. Harmeson plucf* kicked the four goals after touch down. Next Sunday the famous Dayton Koors play the locals in what is expected to be the big game of the year.

ON INDIANA GRIDIRONS

AT PL'KDI’E Ha I nited Prefix LAFAYETTE, Oct. 18. —Preparations for Purdue's annual invasion of Chicago will get under way here at once. Pleased with the way his line checked the Wisconsin backs Saturday. Coach Jimmy Phelan feels he can turn the trick this year and trim the midway eleven. \T NOTRE DAME SOUTH BEND. —poach Rockne's "Fighting Irish” will enjoy a rest today and preparations for the Saturday battle with Northwestern will start Tuesday. Rockne hasn't for gotten the fight necessary to tame the Wildcats last year and will pre pare for one of the hardest games of the season. \T DE PA l \V GUKKNCASTLE—With Karlham out of the way. Coach Hughes today started his Do Pauw Tigers at work on prc| orations for the next game With Butler sit Indianapolis. The Tigers have shown improvement in the last two games and are expecting to he the first State team to stop the Bulldogs in two seasons. \T WABASH CRA W FORDS VI LLlv—With his first team in good condition Coach I’ete Vaughan today opened in earnest the campaign to rush tlie Wabash grid team into shape for its clash with Minnesota at Minneapolis. AT BUTLER Several things are likely to happen out at Irwin field this week. Coach Hinkle was far from satisfied at the showing of Butler Saturday in the Franklin game and plans some changes if the Bulldogs do not snap out of it. The team scented to he over-confident against the Baptists. De Pauw offers a serious menace to Butler next Saturday and there will not be much let-up this week in preparation for the Tigers. AT INDIANA Bloomington—Coach Page has another strenuous week of practice outlined for Indiana in preparation for Wisconsin at Madison next Saturday. Tlie Crimson put up a gunie buttle last Saturday against Northwestern but suddenly went to pieces in the final period. Naturally Page was disappointed and will try to correct defensive weaknesses that showed up. Buckner, a quarter hack, is eligible to play against the Badgers.

Worth Knowing

When Glcnna Collett was eliminated in one of the late rounds in the recent women's national golf tournament, the Providence player lost a chance to equal a record that has stood alone for six seasons—winning the crown twice in succession. Not sin<(e Alexa Stirling (the present Mrs. ’Fraser) successfully defended her title at the Mayfield Country Club. Cleveland, has a champion turned the trick. True, Miss Collett did bag the honors twice, but not in successive campaigns. In 1921. Marion Hollins -came home in front; in 1922, it was Miss Collett; in 1923, Miss Edith Cummings; 1924. Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd and last year Miss Collett. None could repeat, however, while in the role of defending queen.

FoQihaU Captains liu SPA Serriee HI.. Oct, 18.— I I Illinois is without the services * lof “Red” Grange and Earl Britton this season, but a winning team is expected nevertheless with the material on hand. One of the outstanding play-

era on the 1926 squad is "Chuck” Kassel. captain and end. Kassel is a star in every sense of the word, being strong on defense, a deadly tackle and an expert at handling passes. Last year Kassel was named by many as the greatest Hanker in the Middle West. He was just about that, too. This year his admirers

Toll of Death in Havana Races

Ha I nited J'rexs HAVANA, Oct. 18.—Four persons were killed, four perhaps fatally injured and thirteen others hurt, ten seriously, at the automobile races here Sunday in honor of President Gerardo Machado, who fired the starting gun in the four events. About 80,000 spectators lined the circuit of twelve miles, which was improvised by roping off several streets. To complete the tragedy of what was to have been a gala Sunday, a balloon, carrying a ’.urge advertising 1 inner, fell, killing the pilot, Aveiino Rodriguez, ami a dredge which was clearing up the harbor, caught Jesus Gonzales and ground him to death. Those dead in the automobile accidents were Manuel Guerra, a mechanic. and Ramon Fernandez, Aurora Cela and Marie Valdez, spectators. The worst accident occurred‘when in the principal race, a Bugatti driven by Antonio Jane, threw a wheel while rounding a curve. The wheel struck the curb, hounded into the air anil struck Cela on the back of the head, then landed on Valdez, killing both. Other automobile accidents at the same race accounted for the remaining deaths and injured. Practicallj- all the accidents occurred at the curves, which many drivers attempted to negotiate at fulPspeed.

KANSAS AGGIES LOOM UP Missouri Valley Conference Grid Title May Rest Between Two Elevens. By Dudley E. McFadden Unit and Prefix Stuff ('nrrrxnonilrnt KANSAS CITY. Mo., Oct . 18.— Kansas Aggies’ victory 27 to 0 Safeurelay over Kansas University leaves two teams bidding strongly for the Missouri Valley football title for 1926 with possibility that only dope can decide wljich has earned the crown. Valley followers look to Nebraska to show which team, Missouri or the Kansas Aggies, is to be the champions this year.
