Wabash Gridmen Drill for Season Finale at Crawfordsville. IN TRIM FOR BATTLE B * CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 15.—Head Coach Robert E. (Pete) Vaughan has put his Wabash College gridmen down to hard toil this week in preparation for the Little Giants’ final clash of the season here Saturday against the De Pauw Tigers. It will be the Wabash homecoming. Stiff Fights for Both The Scarlet encountered a tartar in Butler last Saturday, and the Bulldogs took a 13-to-6 decision from the local crew. The De Pauw outfit had a hard battle last weekend by disposing of the tough Central Normal eleven, 19-14, and should be in full fighting trim against the locals. Vaughan expressed disappointment in the showing of his club against the Butler team. The Little Giants lacked the real scoring punch when it was needed. The entire squad came out of the game in good condition and should be in top form for the season windup. Probable Line-Up “Tootie” Thornburg and Collins probably will line up at the wing posts against De Pauw, Capt. Perry Loer and Cheney at’ tackles, McCorkle -and McMasters at guards and Kimes at the pivot position. Prail probably will start at quarter, Bayer and Brooks at the halfback positions and Coffel at full. The work of Coffel was especially noteworthy against Butler.
