those elbow pads f—r-JOACH YOUNG and his If' j Pennsylvania U. football i I players must take this football game very seriously. Why else would they put such big pads on their funny bones? (You surely have heard of the latest of the easterners who wehr leather elbow pieces which look like footballs.) i • • * Coach Zuppkn of Illinois is smart, but wily Lou Young seems to have beat Zupp to something good. Beware, Lou. The Illini coach may substitute a balloon in place of a pigskin next Saturday and Frosty Peters will boot a 75-yard drop-kick. All’s fair in love and war and football. * * * Pennsylvania says that the eastern rules committee has put the official O. K. on the leather elbow pads. The team that wears them has put the K. O. on all its opponents so far. “Now you see it and now you don’t. Gather closely, gentlemen and watch the little football disappear. Where is it now?” The “four magicians” of Pennsylvania will perform at Ilinois stadium next Saturday. .Just how many does the stadium hold? Well, that’s the number that will be on band to see the magic stuff. Such publicity surely is tough on attendance records. * * * Soma, of these days a football coach is going to India and study the disappearing act of some of the far-East fakirs. A husky half back will vanish in thin air, only to show up behind the opponent’s goal line. Then the rules will have to be changed again. * • * From here on In there will be much talk of the ethics of football. And most of those who do the talking simply are disappointed because they did not think of the elbow pads first. * • * JUST A BOY. 0"1 WNIE BUSH, new manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates, t___J is a youngster again. Ts you don’t believe it, look at the pictures used Tuesday in many newspapers throughout the country upon the announcement of the former Tribe pilot's new job with the Pirates. Editors dug up the cuts from old files and there is Ownie—just a kid. He’s pretty smart for a boy. * * * Yale whipped the Army la?t season—did it to the tune of 28-7. There wasn’t much doubt about it. The two meet again next Saturday. The score won’t be as large, but we venture a guess that Old Eli again will be on top. * * * What’s this? Bobby Jones twelfth In a field of a dozen starters. Surely not. Yeah, 1 hat’s xvhat happened Tuesday, but It wasn’t on the golf links. Bobby Jones finished very much an “also ran” in the third race at Ijaurel. A race horse with such a name will have to do better than that. * * *

mNDIANA UNIVERSITY has its home-coming on Saturday at Bloomington. The feature entertainment for old grads is the Northwestern-I. U. football game. The Crimson undoubtedly is the underdog. In the previous meeting between the elevens this season the Purple won, 20 to 0. Another Big game was lost to Wisconsin. It is at such a time that the alumni have an opportunity to show their real colors. A battling team fights hardest when it is behind. The grads can show their confidence in Coach Page by pouring out in numbers and supporting their team. There Is no reason why the alumni and students cannot take on .some of the virtues they expect of the football players. It is so easy to quit as things are going against you—so hard to keep on with the fight. • * * CiTJUIAT is this world coming \V t 0? Fldel Ijnßarba - I— 1 weight champion, is to enter Stanford University next year and take a general course. Gene Tunney, heavyweight champ, is reported to be fond of “heavy” reading—quite a highbrow and qu|te a polished gentleman. The latest yarn about Gene is that at a party in Gotham some one started to tell a rather risque story and the champ interrupted with a “need we go that far?” stow times do change.

REDSKINS IN GRID POWWOW Not on Wild Ponies, but in Motor Cars —Haskell Home-coming. Bn United Prefix LAWRENCE, Kan., Oct. 27. Reminiscent of the days, to some extent, when white-faced men raced over the plainr* sounding the alarm, "the Redskins are coming,” to the pioneers, the vanguard of a host of Indians, 5,000 strong, gathered in Lawrence today. It is home-coming at Haskell Institute, the first in the history of the school and the first Indian homecoming in the history of America. Tribes from the four winds stated gathering here today to participate In a four-day celebration, culminating Saturday in a football game between the Haskell Indians and Bucknell College. Saturday, Secretary of Interior Work, pale face chief of all the Indians, will officiate at the dedication of Haskell’s new $200,000 stadium, built by voluntary subscription of the Indians. Toddj? while the braves and their squaws arrived in all their paint and feathers, there was a difference to be noted. They came on the wind on their wild ponies before. This time it was in high-pow'ered motor cars, for the most part. The Osage tribe, richest of all the world’s peoples, is here in force from Oklahoma; Pawnees are here from farther West; Creeks, Crows, Pueblos and a dozen other tribes have members at the gathering. AT WABASH • Little Giants Bruished as Tech Fray Nears. By United Prexx CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 27.—Wabash hardly will have a chance to recover from the battering received at the hands of Minnesota last Saturday before it must face another strong team in Bradley Tech. The Tech eleven has been undefeated since 1924 and the Little Giants anticipate a terriffic battle in the home-coming fray here Saturday.

Charles Cray, a veteran of many campaigns in the ten-pin game, has a wonderful start this season and has his average up to 208 for twentyone games in Capitol No. 1 League. Eicher, shooting with the Falr-banks-Morse team in the Commercial League, had a wonderful start Tuesday night, getting 205 and 270, but a bad third game held his total down to 633. Mounts of the same league, shooting with Crescent Paper, was very consistent, getting scores of 200, 195 find 223 for 618. The Rotary League, shooting at the Capitol alleys does not break records with high scores, but makes up for this in pep and noise. The Fields team is far in the lead in this loop, having lost but two games this season. The Fruit Salad and Plums defeated the Prunes and Pineapple three straights in the Ko-We-Ba League and the Apricots took two of three from the Peaches, losing the last game by one pin.

Browns and Red Sox Berths Unfilled Bush Rated - Two-Fisted Boss. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Corresoondcnt NEW YORK, Oct. 27.—Appointment of Ownie Bush, Indianapolis, as manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates next season leaves only the St. Louis Browns and the Boston Red Sox without leaders. Unless some of the many former managers and prospective managers now out of jobs are in actual want there may be no rush for either berth. On the other hand, when a veteran of the type and character of Stuffy Mclnnis can be trapped into a job of managing the Phillies, the Browns and the Red Sox may not have to draft a successor to George Sisler and Lee Fohl. Among Unemployed Besides Sisler and Fohl, Arthur Fletcher and Bill McKechnie are out of work and there are some prospects in the mindr league worth attention since Joe McCarthy, fresh from the minors, put the Chicago Cubs back into the running and made a money maker out of the club for the first time in years. Ownie Bush can’t be rated as a busher. The former Detroit shortstop had extensive experience in the big time as a player and a brief career as a manager with the Washington Senators. What the Pirates need most. Bush is said- to have. The Pirates don’t need a master-mind. They need a Legree to handle the players and Bush has the reputation for being a two-fisted boss. Many Guesses Until a manager is announced for the Browns and the Red Sox every candidate out of a job will be mentioned as a sure thing. Phil Ball, owner of the Browns, is taking his time about naming Sisler’s successor. It was first reported that Bill Killefer, who acted as Rogers Hornsby’s first lieutenant with the Cardinals list year, would switch over to the Browns. But that was denied and it was Intimated that Bill's brother, Wade, from the Pacific Coast League was being considered. The situation in Boston has been spared from a lot of rumors. Possibly because no one cares to speculate about misfortunes that might befall any poor fellow out of work. It has been reported, however, that Lefty Leifield, who has been helping Lee Fohl, will get his former boss' job. Dan Ilowley, Toronto manager, is said to be another strong candidate. CLARK LEAVES PIRATES Bu United Press PITTSBURGH. Oct. 27. Fred Clarke, vice president and director of the Pittsburgh Pirates, has resigned. A telegram from his home in Winfield, Kas., said the resignation had been mailed to Barney Dreyfuss, president of the club. Clarke generally was credited with being the stormy petrel of the team in the 1926 campaign. An argument over his sitting on the players' bench during games resulted in the dismissal of Carey, Bigbee and Adams, and perhaps the loss of the pennant which, in turn, was partly responsible for the dismissal last week of Bill McKechnle as manager. It is evident Ownie Bush, new manager, is to be given a free hand. Clarke piloted the Pirates to a world championship in 1909. ♦

SOLDIERS PREPARE FOR ELI Cadets Aim to Keep Slate Clean, but Yale May Upset Them. Bu Times Soeelat NEW YORK,, Oct. 27.—West Point’s football team Is preparing for next Saturday’s game at New Haven against Yale with two obecta in mind. The Cadets want to avenge a long series of defeats at the hands of the Eli, and they want to establish it claim to the championship of the East. Yale presumbably will be stronger against the Army than against Brown. There will be no over-con-fidence to hamper the Bulldog, which will return, as before the Dartmouth contest, to the status of under dog. With Wilson, Harding, Hewitt and Cagle, a strong back field, Biff Jones, in his first year as head coach at the Point, as a fine chance to hang up a record of a season without a defeat. It is more likely, however, that Yale again will pro* duce a form reversal and take the measure of the Cadets. In case the Army loses or ,1s held to a tie, the eastern championship, which doesn’t mean much, but which everyone aspires to, probably will drop into the lap of the University of Pennsylvania.
