Coach Cook Has Usual Obstacles to Overcome in Training. TWO EARLY CRIPPLES Horse Bites Lineman; Former Captain Also Hurt. BY DICK MILLER Times Staff Correspondent DANVILLE, Ind., Sept. 20.—Unusual things usually happen around the football camp of the Central Normal college here. Newspaper writers have come to expect something of the exciting variety when they come here each year to looi: over the football prospects of Russe.i Cook, blonde athletic mentor of thr Normal school. Cook has his annual tale of woe. It was a horse this time that interfered with the conditioning program that Coach Cook had his squad of thirty-five engaged in. Just a common oid "dobbin” it was that bit a hunk cut of Donald Long, 190pound guard prospect from Onward Ind. Captain Hurt in ’2B It was Just a year ago that Captain Grant Walls, fell in dummy scrimmage and was carried off the field and rushed to the hospital with a spine ailment that placed his life in danger for several weeks. That injury wrecked the morale of the 1928 team and the pastimers never recovered. This year, before the season is under way, ex-captain Hazlett, giant tackle, is laid up with a finger felon. Coach Cook, however, is taking the "jinx” setbacks with a smile, and with a squad of between thirtyfive and forty out each night is very hopeful for a good season. Most of the number are veterans and ali of the first team is made up of sophomores, juniors and seniors. In contrast to his policy of former years of expecting rood results because he had good turnouts at the start. Coach Cook this season is waiting for each game to spell its owti verdict. “I expect the bunch to take care of themselves very handily in their own league,” he said. Out of Own League "What do you mean, their ‘own league’?” we interrogated. The "why” follows: Danville opens with Dayton university at Dayton, 0., the night of

HAZEN CUYLER HAZEN CUYLER, fleetfooted outfielder of the Cubs, expects to enjoy the 1929 series far more than his last experience In the baseball clas-

biggest year of his career, Cuyler is one of the Cubs’ best bets. . . . Has batted around .350 all season. . . . Easily the fastest and best baserunner in the National League. Enjoys a comfortable margin over his close rival, Frankie Frisch of the St. Louis Cardinals. . . . Slumped badly in 1928 after being traded to Chicago by Pittsburgh. , . . Batted only .282 and made it seem as if Bush had the right slant on his ability. . . Has made a remarkable comeback this season, which has been very bad news to Barney Dreyfuss.

Sept. 28. First of all, Cook advises that his team will be out of place in the night league, having no lights to practice under and being up against a stiff foe in the Dayton outfit. Part of the handicap might be overcome if Cook can borrow the use of the Wabash college gridiron one night next week for practice. Next on the list comes Wabash. Danville has been hoping for many moons for a victory over the Scarlet. Year after year the Little Giants have chilled the local hopes

He was forced to part with Pitcher Sam Gray to make the deal. . . . Gray last season won twenty games for St. Louis It was a costly deal, but Mack feels Miller’s work this year has justified it.

when they were at the highest pitch. The Cookmen will be playing for an upset this year. However, the locals have one thing in their favor. The game will be played on the local field. It will be played the week after Wabash invades Indiana university stadium, and Cook rather expects Pat Page’s warriors to soften up the Little Giants that afternoon. Os course, this will help the Normal team, providing the Dayton team doesn’t soften up his team, Cook adds. After Cook’s bunch has played Dayton and Wabash they will get into their own league and play Valparaiso, Ball Teachers college of Muncie, Oakland City, Evansville, Rose Poly and Franklin.

Caraway Shifted to End Position by Purdue Pilot Bu 77m c* Bnecial LAFAYETTE, Ind.. Sept. 20.—Eb Caraway, veteran Purdue full back, who accounted for many yards every time he stuck his helmet into an Opposing line last season, has been shifted to a wing post by Coach Jimmy Phelan in an. attempt to bolster his forward wall. While shifting Caraway breaks up the great Welch-Harmeson-Caraway back field triumvirate, the change, if permanent, is expected to strengthen the squad as a whole, for Caraway’s speed and experience as a blocker and defensive man is expected to bolster the forward w T aIl strength, while a number of likely sophomores give promise of developing into ball-carriers of varsity caliber. Among the most outstanding sophomores who are making determined bids for regular back field assignments are J. A. White, quarter back; Jim Purvis and Ed Risk, half backs, and Alex Yunevitch, full back.

Naughty Boy Art Repents At Least That’s What Shires Tells Fiancee. Bp Vnited Press NEW YORK, Sept. 20.—Baseball’s "Bad Boy” is ready to repent, the United Press learned today from the fiancee of Art Shires, youthful Chicago White Sox first baseman, who is under suspension for engaging in a fight with Manager Lena Blackburne and Traveling Secretary Lou Barbour at Philadelphia a week ago. "If they’ll only give me another chance,” Shires told his fiancee here before leaving for the west in an effort to straighten out the tangle. “I’ll put all my surplus energy into getting base hits and winning ball games instead of getting into jams.” Shires thinks he has been given the tvorst of a bad deal, according to his fiancee, but he is ready and willing to let bygones be bygones if the White Sox will take him back.

Did You Know That— A “STIFF” is a horse that's not trying to win. . . . When you’re “in the back of the book,” that means you owe a bookmaker, and when you owe too many bookmakers you can always “take the fence.” ... A “bug rider” is a boy with an apprentice allowance . . . In the old days a “bug” was a battery they used to apply to the horse to make him go. . . .
