They are emulating the famous Carlisle Indians, who, In former years, spread fear In the camps of the paleface grid warriors. Jim Thorpe, former Carlisle star, to our notion. Is the greatest football player that ever put on a pleated shoe, For all-round ahlllty he makes some of the modern stars look Insignificant. * * • SHERP3 nre jseveral Indianapolls youth's on the Wabash team that comes to Irwin field next Saturday In the annual battle with Butler. They have a Jinx to overcome. It seems as though the local gridders, when they come back home, try too hai’d. At least, In years past, some of them have had tough luck In the Butler frays. Myers In the back field, Painter and Mulbarger In the line are former Manualites. Zollner, former Tech player, Is a tackle. Wat,ch your step, boys! * • • A bit o' eastern collegiate atmosphere was seen In Indianapolis, Sunday, when a young football warrior, resplendent In Ids uniform, strode down the street. On the chest of liis white sweater was emblazoned In huge blue letters the word YALE, Then, Just as the casual onlooker was beginning to wonder what this son of Ohl Eli was doing out here In the great midwest, a smaller word was noticed under |he “Yale.” It was "'fires.” And the young advertiser went merHiy on his way to victory or mayhap, defeat. ... Hot Pepper was cold Monday in the third race at Pimlico track opening and finished a distant last. Lieutenant IT was first In the *fth event and paid $17.50 for a $2 lutuel ticket, to win. That one always comes down In front at great odds, It's Just, knowing when. • * * SFTTCR all this talk about the great Wisconsin defense, along comes a yarn about strengthening the Badger line, Joestlng of Minnesota Is likely to work havoc with any set of forwards. He Is one of the greatest plungers In the game. Speaking of the Badgers, they almost won from the Gophers Saturday without making a first down. The score was 10 to 9 In favor of Wisconsin, with only five minutes to go and the team in the lead had not made a first down. A touchdown, point after touchdown, Rnd field goal had made ten points. The scores came after Minnesota fumbles. Tt took a slxty-flve-yard run by Nydahl to turn the tide In favor of the Gophers, who had beep ripping things up all afternoon. Ts Wisconsin had won that game It would have been a world’s record, at loast. * * • Man O' War has some illustrious sons. Crusader, If he keeps on going, may almost equal the record of his great sire. Crusader won the feature rare at Phiilico Monday and earned the Riddle Farm, $21,500. Sande was the Jockey. Two champions. Mars, another Man O' War colt, - was second.

("ryVI'IKRK are times when footI J[ I hall ceases to be a sport. A—* The Syracuse-Army game out affair. And there are other games of the same nature one does not hear about because the teams participating are not nationally known. It Is not only the professional clubs that occasionally engage In Impromptu battles on the gridiron and resort to “dirty” tactics. Some of the best known teams at times fry to get an opposing star “mad” by punching him In the nose, twisting his neck, “laying” for him and crashing him, etc. On Saturday in a State game such a thing happened. And it finally worked, Sometimes a man cannot be blamed for smacking an opponent who has constantly throughout the game used every mean little trick he knows. When football gets down to sueli tactics then it is no longer a sport. It is simply another type of ancient gladiatorial combat with leather protection instead of steel and fists, knees and cleats in place of swords. • * * SHERE wasn’t much doubt about any of the winners at Latonia Monday. Myra M. took the first race by five lengths. Ho-Horry led all the way in the .•pond to hold his field safe by lengths. Azure came strong in the stretch to draw (away to a six lengths victory in the third. Joan d’Albret, Great Sport, Florida Gold and Blue Torch all were far in front. There was no straining of eyes to detect the winner in close finishes. Plenty of daylight showfed between first and second horses.

BUTLER-WABASH ARGUMENTS START-RIVALS CLASH SATURDAY

Annual Fray at Irwin Field Expected to Supply Customary Thrills — Battle Looks Like Toss-Up. Pre-game Butler-Wabash discussions are under way as the annual grid clash of the bitter rivals approaches. The contest is to be played at Irwin Field, Saturday and when kick-off time arrives at 2 p. m. the Butler stands are expected to be filled.

Bulldog and Scarlet battles are classics for thrills. For a time this season Wabash appeared to hold the upper hand in the dope, but close followers of the rivals now figure the affair a toss-up. Both teams flopped to a ce’jtain extent and Saturday’s tilt looks like anybody's scrap until the end of hostilities. Each team took a pasting last Saturday and it is said} the warOrn wfordsville and Irvington will be fed on something this week that will curl their hair in ord -r to put the old spirit of the Stone Age into their hearts. ' The Wabash alumni nre to gather at the Athenaeum, Friday night, to work themselves into a frenzy. The powwow is labeled a smoker this year instead of a banquet, because heretofore the "wild aluminum” of the Caveman institution gave very little heed to what was on top of the banquet tables.

Mark Wakefield

Destinies c>f the Technical High School basketball team are in the ’ hands of Mark Wakefield this season. He Is a veteran who knows Indiana basketball from A to Z. He came to the local school this year from Central High of Evansville. His team went to the semifinals last season in the State tourney.

Cue Performer on at Lyric

From baseball to billiards, briefly sums up the career of Larry Stoutenberg, well-known exhibition pocket billiardist, who is at the Lyric this week giving an interesting exhibition of his skill with the cue and ivory balls. Though Stoutenberg has played billiards since early boyhood, he started out to be a professional ball player, was catcher for the Wilkesbarre club for two years, and was drafted by the New York Giants after the season of 1908. An injury sustained from a foul tip, however, impaired his eyesight and forced him to quit the game. Stoutenberg has competed in national billiard tournaments for fourteen years. He has wins to his credit over Frank Taberski, former champion, and Ralph Greenleaf, present world’s champion pocket billiard player. He has made high runs of over 100 exactly 136 times, his highest run being 233. He also is a trick shot artist.

Larry Stoutenberg, nationally known three-cushion pocket billiard player, who is appearing at the Lyric Theater this week, will give an exhibition at Cooler's Wednesday night as an added feature to the regulsr State tourney tilt.

They prefer to smoke, shout and gaze on vaudeville stunts and if anybody happens to feel hungry it will be a simple matter to dispatch a runner’ for some raw red hamburger. It’s been a long time since Wabash has ‘been able to crow over Butler and each season the Scarlet herd takes renewed hope. Out In Irvington the Bulldogs are being prodded daily and the vioiouaness of the workouts indicates Head Coach Hinkle Is throwing “his all’’ into the Wabash fracas. ’ Tickets are on sale downtown at Ous Habich’s, Clarke & Cade’s, and Smith, Hassler and Sturm. What has gone before Is of no consequence when Butler and Wabash clash —lt’s*Vhat occurs on “the day.” Fans are advised to make early ticket purchases if they desire choice seats from which to view the mad struggle.

to mix In the four-round opener, anjl fans who saw these lads perform at Brightwood the past summer, no doubt, will greet this scrap with applause. The boys fight like wildcats. In the six-round encounters there will be a number of “sockers,” otherwise known as knuckle dusters who either win or get flattened. It looks like the biggest show of the indoor season. Considerable talk Is heard of the Wallace-Wiggins feature, and the whole of Brightwood is excited over the possibility of the youthful Wallace hanging a sleep punch on the veteran Chuck. Billy Meyer, local heavyweight, who meets Wild Bill Clemons, New York, in one of the six-round bouts Monday, stopped George Gehrig, Louisville, in the third round in a scrap In Louisville Monday night.

His games carried this team to a three-gaine win over the Coca-Cola team. Baker Bros, and the leading Silver Flash also made a clean sweep of their series with Shell Gas and 3 F Coffee. The Bailey Realtors and Roberson coal team had a close match, the Realtors noting out with the odd game by four pins. Eleven of the boys in this league passed the 600 mark. In the Century League the Para Optlcals and Lincoln Highway teams were the clubs to sweep their series with the Florshelm Shoes and Century Billiards, respectively.

DEMPSEY OFFERED LICENSE N. Y. Commission Won’t Sanction Return Bout With Gene, However. By Henry L. Farrell Unit :d Press Stall Correspondent NEW YORKwNov. 2.—Jack Dempsey, former heavyweight champion, will be granted a. license to fight again in New York, but tho commission will not sanction a return bout between Dempsey and Gene Tunney, the new champion. That information cannot be given officially, but it comes from the same source which decreed Dempsey could not fight in New York until he had accepted the challenge of Harry Wills, a decree that forced Tex Rickard to take the Tunney-Demp sey fight to rhlladeljihia. After a conference last week with Tex Rickard, Dempsey said lie was returning to California to resume training and that he would return to the ring if he felt he was in good condition to resume boxing ai. the end of his preparatory work. The commission, at its meeting Monday, explained that a appearance by Dempsey was not necessary to file an ajiplicatJon for a license and that he could mall an ajiplicatlon. The commission, If can be said, resents the inference that it persecuted Dempsey and drove him out of New York to fight Tunney. The commission realizes what the State dropped financially in losing the big heavyweight show of three vears and the commission does not boast of its judgment in championing a Wills who was so hadly beaten In his first real fight against Jack Sharkey, but it was pointed out that the minority member and the license committee merely followed the rules which made Wills the priority challenger. However, it was pointed out, if Dempsey gets a license and wants to box in New York he will be considered only a heavyweight and no favors will be shown him us a former champion. Unless something happens to deprive him of consideration before the six months expire in which Tunney has the legal privilege of ignoring challengers. Jack Sharkey, who dumped Harry Wills into the second raters, will he regarded as the official challenger. Sharkey was the first to file a challenge against Tunney. N. Y.
