EHINGS are rapidly drawing to a climax for the local high school football teams. The first intra-city game is scheduled at Irwin field, Friday, between Manual and Technical. What makes things interesting this year is that every club is given a chance against every other. Shortridge seems to have the best chance for some time to defeat its city rivals. But one can never tell. Manual and 'fecit appear to be about, on equal terms with Shortridge given a slight edge by most of the dopesters. •The dates for all city games between public high schools: Oct. 29—Manual vs. Tech. Nov. 12—Manual vs. Shortridge. Nov.l9 —Technical vs. Shortridge. Coach Goldsberry of Shortridge will admit after much hemming and hawing that lie has a pretty good team. Personally, we believe that Shortridge is even better than rated. The main weakness is a lack of reserves. Otherwise the team seems to be bigger than usual. Most of the players are experienced, having played last year • on the first team or scrubs. Brugman, anew lineman, makes up in fight what he may lack In experience. He is the only one in the . line who hasn't played before. | Peacock is a good back field man and could be even better If he only would. He has been used at quarter, B. Jeffries is another good quarter who seems to use liis noodle. Toung Skinner, another back, likes the game and is trying hard. A love of the sport is very essential. Hill and Miller are big youths who are capable of a smashing game if only stirred up to the proper pitch. Better keep an eye on Short-, ridge, folks. They are not the best In the world; neither are they the worst Cathdral has a strong team, but Is not a member of the I. H. S. A. A., and does not play any local prep team this year. * * • OHORE who like to figure football games ahead of time from comparative scores will have a good opportunity noxt Saturday to dope the Butler-Wabash contest here on Nov. 6. The annual rivalry fray always causes feverish Interest and Irwin field usually cannot hold the crowd. There will be something to talk about a J next week. I/ombard, which mr-ets Butler on Saturday at the locals’ gridiron, lost to Bradley T'Hh last week. The score was 14 to 6. Wabash plays Bradley on Saturday at Crawfordsville. It will be easy to put two and •wo together. But two and two do not always make four in this football game. When rivals meet s there doesn’t seem }o be any I dope and figures lie and lie and He. • • • There is always something doing when Wisconsin and Minnesota clash. In 1926 the contest ended up In an unsatisfactory deadlock, 12 to 12. The elevens appear evenly matched again. They meet Saturday at Madison. • * * lost year Ohio State and Chicago played a 3 to 3 tie. It doesn’t seen* that close next Saturday when the Buckeyes Invade the Maroon camp. It begins to look as though a number of tl*e Maroons’ old enemies are going to get revenge this year. Purdue started the fashion last Saturday after years of reverses. • * • ET looks as though each section will have something to crow about after next Saturday’s big East-West contests. Pennsylvania appears the logical favorite over Illinois at Urbana and Michigan should take the measure of the Navy at Annapolis. Ts those games were arranged differently there would not be so much confidence in predicting the winners. What if Penna were clashing with Michigan? The impact would be terrific. The two clubs undoubtedly are among the strongest in the country. • "Navy Bill” Ingram, coach of the Middies, has unpleasant memories of Michigan, fie got a terrific beating from the Yostmen when coaching Indiana. It is very doubtful whether he can get revenge pvith the Navy team next Saturday. Some are saying that the Wolverines are not as strong this year as in 1925, but they are good enough to heat the Navy. The Midshipmen also have unpleasant memories. They were defeated last year 54 to 0, at Michigan by Friedman’s great passing. Pennsylvania, from all reports, is a real tough customer. The overwhelming defeat of Chicago helped the idea along, and it will be more firmly imbedded than ever in the minds of the football fans if the eastern team can knpck off the Illini. Zuppke’s boys are plenty hard to get along with in their own little playground.

ONLY THREE INTRA-CONFERENCE GRID STRUGGLES THIS WEEK

RIVALRY H.S. GRID CONTEST Manual and Tech Warriors Tune Up for Annual Clash Friday. Irwin Field, Irvington, will be the scene of the fit si city series high school grid struggle of the year. The contest will be between Manual and Technical and will occur Friday afternoon at 2:30. Coaches at the two institutions are driving their warriors Jiard in preparation for the rivalry battle and there is sure to be plenty of excitement for the spectators when the youthful gridsters clash. According to close followers on local prep fotobuli, Tech appears to be favored to win, but the Manual athletes are not letting this opinion curb their enthusiasm. It is said Tech is better otf in allaround physical condition, a few of the Manual main stays being reported on the crippled list. Tech is the holder of the city public high school championship and seems to bo in a mood to defend it during the current campaign. It remains for Manual and Shortridge to dispute the. Green and White reign.

Ownie Bombarded With Wires

The troubles of a big league manager start the day he is appointed. Ask Ownie Bush. Official and deflnuite word that Ownie will manage the Pittsburgh Pirates next year was given to Pittsburgh papers Monday night. Today Bush was bombarded with tele grams front various newspapers of the Pirate city asking hint what his “policy” would be The United Press sent out word that Bush is known through the baseball world as a fighter. The United Press must have interviewed Tom Hickey, the A. A. prexy. Pirate fans will find Bush a. fighter and hustler and-a general fire alarm around their ball park. He goes after everything the same as when he was a phenom shortstop. Ownie was a free agent and single when he signed with the Pirates. Big league scribes will get a big kick out of that. Bill McKechnte. former Pirate pilot and Bush are opposite types. McKechnle is quint and unassuming. The only time Bush Is quiet Is when his team Is nine miles out In front and he is a “last word orator” In all diamond disputes. flush will help the Pirate pitching staff. He did wonderful tilings with Indianapolis hurlers during file three years he managed here. Telegrams of congratulation are piled high out at the Bush home on Walcott St. The wily OwnJe has a host of friends in baseball.

TRIPLE GRID PASS, WITH THE DOUBLE REVERSE

By EKNIK NKVEKS, AlI-American Full Back, 1925 m DOUBT if any football coach has a greater bag of tricks than Coach Glenn Warner of Stanford. Whatever little success 1 have had on the gridiron was due to the teachings of Stanford. “The greatest one-man coach in the country” is the way 1 have often heard the football experts refer to Warner. I am sure It is a well deserved compliment, for to

me he always has seemed to have the enthusiasm and energy of a half dozen coaches. Warner deal's in diversified football. I am Inclined to think that his teams are hard to scout. In no two games last season did we use exactly the same system. In the old days when Warner had charge of the Carlisle Indians. I understand he kept rival coaches busy trying to ferret out his tricks. I have heard him relate how one of his players once ran for a touchdown from kickoff against Harvard by secreting the ball under his jersey. I also have heard* him tell how in one of the big games all his players had a duplicate of a football sewed on their jerseys, and as the ball was passed each player would make it seem that he was carrying the ball. I am told it practically was impossible for the opposing team to distinglish between the player actually with the ball and the ten others with fake footballs.

NEVERS

The stunt of having one of the Carlisle Indians rolled up in a blanket, along the sidelines to spring to his feet and remove the blanket as play was started, thereby upsetting the opposition, was another favorite trick. The rules comndttee has since so worded the rules that It is now hard to beat by trickery. In recent years I know of no trick play used by Stanford that afforded Coach Warner greater satisfaction than the trjple pass with the double reverse. The first time Warner sprung it against California, the greatest rival of Stanford, a touchdown resulted. That was a great break for the Warner strategy. As full back at Stanford I handled most of the passes. In this play the ball came direct from the center to me at full back. I would make a bluff to go around the opposition's right end. At the same time the right half back would start running toward me and I would pass the ball to him. The right half back then gives the bail to the left half back, who proceeds to run around the right end. / While the play is not new. yet it requires extreme accuracy on the part of every player for It to go over. Coach Warner always insisted that every Stanford player he in action during the progress of the play, making it seem as If he were carrying the ball regardless of what he was actually doing, in order to increase the deception of the maneuver.

APPOINTMENT OF BUSH AS NEW PIRATE PILOT GIVEN OFFICIAL STAMP Peppery Manager, Product of Indianapolis, Becomes Field Boss of Strong Pittsburgh Club —Career Notable in Baseball.

By Eddie Ash Who is going to be the manager of the 1927 Indians? This was the question debated by local biiaeball fans today following the announcement by Barney Dreyfuss in Pittsburgh Monday night that Owen J. Bush. "Ownie” or "Donie." whichever you prefer, had signed a contract to manage the Pirates next year. Barney Dreyfuss, being president of the Pirates, means the announcement is official, and Indianapolis loses another diamond field general. Bush piloted the Tribesmen the past three seasons, finishing second in the American Association race each year, the team of 1924 losing | out in the pennant tight in the final week of the campaign when injuries to players forced Rush to finish with u college rookie playing regularly. Glorious Chance Kua-h leaves his home-town club with regrets, but* he hardly could afford to ikiss up an opportunity to graduate to one of the strongest teams in the major leagues. Pittsburgh won the National league flag in 1925 and defeated Washington in the world scries that fall, but fell to third position in the senior circuit this season. Discord in the ranks was blamed for the downfall of the 1926 Pirates, because many baseball critics still figfire it a powerful outfit with great batting strength. And President Dreyfuss believes Ownie Bush is the type of manager to bring his club Bark to normalcy. Burth feels sure he can win with the Pirates and break into the 1927 world series, the dream of all baseball pilots. fiefs Good Contract It took a fat contract to beat the terms of Owner Smith of the .Indians for Bush's services, hut the Pittsburgh President went up into high figures and coaxed tlie peppery manager away from the Hickey loop. Ownie did all of his major league playing in the American loop. For years he was the crack shortstop of the Detroit TUere. going There from Indianapolis In ID'S. He was sent to Washington In 1922 and played the utility role and was appointed Washington manager in 1923. The following season found him back' home, managing the Indians He did very well with the Washington team, hut departed when Owner Griffith persisted in trying to do part of the managing. Remembering that experience. It can be taken-for granted Bush made certain he would be the one and only field general when he agreed to go to Pittsburgh to succeed Manager Bill McKechnie. Was Free Agent Rush's age is 38 and he Is unmarried. He first signed a two-year contract with the Indians In 1924. then a one-year document to cover 1926. He became a free agent again when the ’26 A. A. season closed and was free to sign with any club for 1927. The Tribe roster has undergone a number of changes and Bush’s successor will face a task. Os the !926 team. Pitcher Henry and Speece have been sold. Catcher Hartley has been drafted, and Outfielder Fisher, who was here on option, has been recalled by Minneapolis. Owner Smith was not in the city today and could not be questioned concerning his plans for 1927. Secretary Clatter said he had no idea whom Smith had in mind to succeed

Bush. However, fans are confident Smith will lose no time in building a formidable machine for next year's race. ' As to Bash’s Successor Eddie Sicking, veteran second baseman, has been mentioned as standing a chance to succeed Bush in the Tribe managerial shoes. Johnny Corrlden, assistant Minneapolis pilot the past season, also has been mentioned. There will be many applicants for the job and Owner Smith will not be ready to appoint anew boss for about ten days. „ Managers In the A. A. must be of the aggressive type to be successful. Silent pilots get "stepped on” in the Hickey circuit. V Develops Many During his three years as Tribe manager, Bush proved a wizard at developing players to a point where big league clubs sought their services. He sold Outfielder Brown and Stephenson, Third Baseman Hodapp, Pitchers Petty, Fitzsimmons. Hill, Henry and Speece. Shortstop Schreiber. and Catcher Krueger. Pitcher Maun and Catcher Hartley were drafted, and Catcher Florence was recalled by the Giants after Bush developed him. Since w. C. Smith took over the majority stock of the Indianapolis club, he has had only two managers, Jack Hendricks and Ownie Bush. When Bush succeeded Hendricks, the latter went to Cincinnati and was elevated to the pilotship of the Reds on the death of Pat Moran. Now Bush becomes manager of the Pirates of Pittsburgh in the same league with Hendricks. Joe McCarthy, who went to the Chicago Cubs as manager, was an inflelder with the Indians many years ago. And Pirates, Reds and Cubs appear strong enough at this time to be rated pennant contenders next season.
