% Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

Chicago. Oct. 7. OUT here the population seems to ran largely to lightweights. In the space of a few hours time you are likely to run into Bat Nelson, a pretty sad looking character these days: Packey McFarland, prosperous and portly; Charley White, unchanged as to appearance, and the proprietor of a swank gymnasium catering to overstuffed ladies from the Gold Coast, and, of course, Sammy Mandell, the current titleholder, bemoaning the dearth of opposition in his class and yearning lor a match with either Jackie Fields or Vince Dundee. “I think I can outstab either one of them,” he tells you. And maybe he can. a a o Chicago ha* produced more stand-out lightweight* than any other section of the map. Including, if top happen to feel that way about it. Bit Bill Thompson, the mayor. Neiaon still *rabolliea doggedne*.* and unyielding rourage wherever flats are thrown. Mrlarland was probably •leverest of all lightweight*. BUB White had the moat explosive left hook inv 135-pounder ever brought Into the ring. A slow functioning noodle kept him down with the second raters. I think the records will show he had more chances to win the title than any lightweight the game ever knew. He fought Willie Ritchie, Freddie Welsh and Benny Leonard, but he r.o :ld never quite make the grade In 1920 he took on a badly conditioned Leonard and knocked him through the ropes in one ■ of the early rounds, but the champion came back and bulled him Into submission.

It doesn’t seem so many years ago that the headlines used to refer to Hoppe as the “boy wonder.” But the truth is it’s been a long time since he was a child prodigy of the cue. He's well along in the forties now find his hair is as gray as a New England fog. Hoppe admits interest in billiards is not as keen as it cr-e was, particularly in the smaller ; cities where the country club life i overshadows the downtown recrea- ' tion halls.

State College Elevens Escape Upsets; Irish, Purdue Show Power Sophomore Backs Lead Boilermakers to Victory; Elder r Flashes Speed Against Crimson Rivals.

BY DICK MILLER Hoosier fans lacked upsets to talk about today in referring to Saturday’s football games, but what a world of other interesting topics there were. Ask any fan who watched the 1929 edition of Knute Rockne's Notre Dame team perform at Bloomington against Indiana Saturday and big odds to one the first thing he tells you is that this Elder is a wonder. Eder, who reached fame while dashing down the cinder paths in record time for the short dashes, now bids fair to reach head lines in football. They also tell about a few other items of the Notre Dame offense that are interesting. With Welsh ineligible Saturday, and Harmenson performing just a short time, the sophomore back field quartet that Jimmy Phelan, Purdue mentor, threw at the Kansas Aggies to win 26-14 had the men who spend their lunch hour talking football jubilant about the Boilermakers’ chances this fall. Welsh is expected to be eligible next Friday. White, Purvis, Pope and Yunevich form the combination that promises to make Hoosier fans forget about any line weaknesses at Purdue. Bo McMillin's Aggies were unable to stop the young ball toters. Breaks Hurt Butler The 13-0 defeat suffered by Potsy Clark's Butler Bulldogs at Northwestern is a story of a bad break, a stubborn defense by the Bulldogs and only one concerted drive on the part of the Wildcats. Dick Hanley's bunch found the Butler boys plenty tough at the Outset and the game resorted into a punting duel. Chicago papers say Cavosie was the Butler star, but other reports have it that from the defensive standpoint the Bulldogs functioned as a machine. It didn't look like a Wabash team ol the old that eked out a 13 to 0 win at Danville over Central Normal. Coach Cook, presenting a Danville team that is the best ever, employed a successful defensive game against the Scarlet. Dr Pauw Triumphs Edwards intercepted a pass and raced thirty-five yards for the first Wabash touchdown. Woods, Wabash half back, treated the fans to some spectacular broken field running when he dropped back for a punt, circled right end behind perfect interference for a 99-yard dash to the goal line. Bratton, Dean and Liveley led Danville. De Pauw and Oberlin had a vicious scrap at Oberlin. but the

Gray Beards Play on Last Day Bn Vnitni Press NEW YORK. Oct 7—Oldtimers as well as rookies broke into major league baseball lineups in the closing games of the season Sunday. Nick Altrock. Washington, batted in the ninth inning and hit a single, while Johnny Evers. Boston coach, took his old stand at second base and muffed his only fielding chance. Jimmy Austin, 49-year-old St. Louis Browns coach, played third base and had two assists to his credit.

Fans From Everywhere and of All Types Gather for Classic

Babe Likes Athletics, but Believes Cubs Have Edge on Mound and Experience Bambino Timid About Predicting Series Winner as Opening Game Draws Near: Would Prefer American League Victory, He Admits; Still Boosts Earnshaw. BY BABE RUTH CHICAGO, Oct. 7.—One more day and the world series will be under way and those of us who have been expressing opinions in advance will be able to know just how good or how bad our guesses were. Every series prediction is influenced a little by sentiment. Somehow a fellow always see the strong points in the team he's pulling for, and the weaknesses of the fellow he wants to see trimmed. Asa ball player

I guess I’m just as much subject to sentiment as any one else. But now' that I’m on the ground where I can get both sides of the argument and where I can sort of get the smell of the battle, I believe I’m less .prejudiced than I was before. I admire the Athletics as a ball club. I’ve got a lot of respect for their ability. I know them all well and I would be a sucker if I didn’t pull for them to I win. After all, they represent my league. They’re my friendly enemies throughout the season, and they’re fighting right now to hold for the American League the championship which the Yankees held for two I years before. So I like the A’s—and I want them to win. But in giving my opinion to the public as a baseball w'riter, I must honestly confess that I think the Cubs have a

slight edge. And I say that because they seem to have some advantage in pitching and a considerable advtar.ge in world series experience. Which may mean a little or a lot, depending on the breaks that come.

I've played in a lot of world series since I broke into baseball, and have seen a lot of others—but I’ll be durned if I ever saw' one where there was quite so much excitement as in this one, or one w r here there are so

It was waste-basketed. .. . Residents of Twentieth street, near Shibe park, erected nifty bleachers on their housetops and were all set to cleahup on the world series. . . . Then the building inspector said nothing doing. .. . “If there should be a collapse, or persons were injured hurrying to exits, citizens would be asking where the building inspectors had been.” . . . That was the inspector’s explanation.

Ohians were not strong enough to to stop the fast flying Tiger backs. After they entered the fray in the second quarter. Van Riper sent a pass to Bailey for thirty-five yards and Hogan galloped over, De Pauw winning 7-0. Phil Brown’s Engineers from Rose Poly stood off the Earlham team for a half, but the Quakers presented and offense that became stronger as the game progressed and three touchdowns resulted. Young, Johnson and Taylor scored. Hill and Gillett starred for Rose. The score was 20-0. Indianapolis glimpsed its first night football Saturday night when Franklin defeated Indiana Central on the Central field. The central back field appeared demoralized without Brenneman, recently injured. On the other hand, Franklin appeared stronger than a week ago. winning 14-0. Bud Surface scored two touchdowns and added two place kicks. Smith and Moore were best for Central. Ball Teachers college lost to the Western Teachers college at Bowling Green, 13-0. Wally Mark’s Indiana State Normal team didn’t do as well as expected against an injured Valparaiso team, winning only 14-0.

Down the Alleys

Joe Fohn, rolling anchor for the Van Dam team of Kokomo, entered the hall of fame when he rolled a perfect 300 score In a special match game against the Recreation Five of Indianapolis at the Uptown alleys Sunday. The Van Dam boys were easv winners, tfcetting a total of 3.070 to the locals 2,872. Two-time wins featured the Ritzy Rollers I eagu a games at the St. Philip drives, the Beliler and Hausser girls defeating the Zimmer and Brewer quintets. Ellis was best in individual play with a total of 485. Rov Halslup is sporting an average of 207 to lead the fast Indianapolis League to date. Jess Pritchett Is on Roy’s heels with 205. One hundred seventeen totals of better than 600 were turned In during the last weeks play the 699 count of Jess Pritchett's leading the field. Hod Eller and IV. Hare tied for the hirh single game count with a score of 267. Barrett is hitting the maples in fine stvle for the Maple Road boys in the Bankers League. Did vou see the three "rabbits” of the Hare Chevrolet team Step on the gas in Fridav night's play of the City league at the Elk Club drives. This club turned in the high three-game total of the week with a score of 3.080. A. Hare had 64 <; F. Hare. 648, and W. Hare, 682. Meridian Garage also crashed the m.vples hard during this loop s play, being but eight pins awav with 3.081. All three games were over the 1.000 mark.

many people trying to get into the games. wife and I got off the train here this morning and went to the hotel. As we walked into the lobby we were completely surrounded by fans. I was all set for a lot of questions, thinking they’d be asking me who I liked, what I thought of the pitchers, and the hitters, and all ! that sort of thing. But did they do • it? They did not. The only question j I heard all the time w'as, “Say, Babe, i can you get me a ticket?” i Right now Chicago and Philadeli phia both are a lot more interested in getting tickets than in who wins the ball games. And if any one is worrying much about scores they certainly are keeping quiet. You do hear some discussion about starting pitchers. And, of course, I’m as much in the dark as any one. If I w'as making a guess, I’d say that McCarthy will start either Root or Malone. And I’ve got a hunch Connie Mack will open up with Earnshaw. And it will be a smart move, too, I think. I’ve got a hunch that either Root or Malone will go better in that opener than Bush would —and Earnshaw' certainly is less affected by excitement and the thrill of the opening game than either Grove or Walberg. Remember this, too. If Earnshaw I pitches that opening game, he’ll be ( available to pitch again in the ! Philadelphia opener if necessary, and can start still a third game if the series is long drawn out. The way the schedule is arranged with traveling days out and an idle Sunday, two pitchers, or three at the most, can work the entire series I wouldn’t be surprised to see Connie use Grove and Earnshaw in at least five games, and I’ve got a hunch Joe McCarthy might do the same thing with Root and Bush or Root and Malone.

Windy City Seethes With Baseball Interest Day Before Series Start. SCALPERS IN DEMAND 55,000 to Jam Cub Fark Tuesday Afternoon. BY MERTON T. AKERS United Pres* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 7.—The baseball clans gathered in Chica-go today for the 1929 world series, the lucky ones with tickets in their pockets loafing about hotel lobbies reminiscing, the others haunting street corners trying to find scalpers. Out on the north side V/riyley field, home cf the Chicago Cuss, National League champions, stood ready for the invasion of Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics and the 55,000 fans who are expected to pack the grandstands to suffocation and overflow to the roofs of nearby apartment houses Tuesday, The baseball spectacle that comes annually and alw r ays pitches interest to the breaking point, drew a host of notables and near-notables to the city on Lake Michigan that boasts of a baseball history extending from Poo Anson to Rogers Hornsbv. Foremost on the list of great here for the series is Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, the silver-haired veteran w'ho resigned from, the federal bench to run or"anized baseball after the Black Sox affair. He is staying at the Drake hotel, not far from Wrigley field, “the ball park that chewing gum made.” Babe Ruth, who this year breaks his custom of home-run hitting in w'orld’s series to be a mere onlooker, has reservation at the Congress hotel, headquarters for the converging army of baseball writers. The roster was to be completed today by late arrivals for the sporting event that brings players of an- ' cient and modern days together with 1 officials and big business magnates who remember their barefoot days on the village green with a string ball and a dime bat. The steel industry is represented by James A Farrell, president of the United States Steel Company; the theater by Charles Dillingham; the motor car industry, by W. J. McAneeny. vice-president of the Hudson Company, and the bonkers by Rogers Caldwell, Nashville. Tenn.; F. H. Hobson of Cleveland and a score more w'hose “yes” or “no” makes or turns down loans of millions. Wallace, Dillon Display Form in Sunday Exercise Roy Wallace and Young Jack Dillon worked out at local gymnasiums Sunday and Major Greene, Legion matchmaker, visited both quarters to watch the boys do their last calesthenics before their scrap at the Armory Tuesday night. The major expressed himself as highly pleased. Wallace boxed seven rounds w'ith Billy Moore at the Atherton gym and looked to be in wonderful shape. He weighed 165. Dillon held forth at the Arcade, where he boxed five rounds with Norman Brown. He seems in better condition than when he met Wallace at Ft. Harrison recently. It will be recalled Dillon had boxed ten rounds the night previous to his first scrap with Wallace. The biggest advance sale of the season is reported by the Legion ticket committee. Brothers Ahead in Links Match The Stonehouse brothers, Ralph of Coffin and Russell of Riverside, increased their lead in. a scheduled seventy-tw'o-hole match with Herman Uebele of Pleasant Run and Roy Robertson of Sarah Shank, by scoring a one-up win in the eight-een-hole leg at Coffin course Sunday. The Stonehouse boys now hold a two-up margin after fifty-four holes and the final eighteen will be played next Sunday at Riverside. The brothers showed excellent team work Sunday to score a best ball score of 69 as each of them had an individual 75. Robertson had the low score Sunday, a par 71, but Uegele couldn’t get going and scored 78.

Aerial Annie Oakleys

Major Greene, matchmaker for armory fight shows, sent fifty tickets for Tuesday night’s show to Simor* Johns of Louisville, manager of Young Jack Dillon, w T ho meets Roy Wallace in the main event. Johns is an aviation enthusiast and pilots his own' plane, and he plans to fly to this city Tuesday, end, arriving here about noon, will make a wide circle and drop the tickets from his plane.

Oct. 7.—'The hopes and prayers of all Philadelphia today were centered on Connie Mack and his American League champions, the Athletics. The “White Elephants” got a rousing send-off here Sunday night as their train pulled out for Chicago, where they will meet the Chicago Cubs, National League champions, in the first game of the world series Tuesday. A moment before the train pulled out, Connie Mack lowered his lean frame from a doorway and told the crowd what was in his mind. “We are going to a strange city to play on a diamond to which we are unaccustomed,” the sage of the Schuylkill said. “We have never played the Cubs, but after the first game I think we will know just about what to expect. “Maybe we will give them something to think about and then, maybe. they will give us something to worry about. However, we are going to do our best to win.”

The Philadelphia lead of eighteen games was exceeded in the American League 1 1 > years ago when the Yankees won with nineteen games to spare, but the Cubs, margin is the largest a National League team has enjoyed in recent years. Only one American League club, besides the Athletics, improved its standing over 1928. The Cleveland Indians advancing from seventh place to third. Detroit finished sixth, the same as in 1928, while the other five clubs finished lower than a yea rago, when they ranked as follows: Philadelphia, St. Louis, Washington, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Boston. While the Cubs advanced two lotclies in winning the 1929 pennant, the Philadelphia team made the greatest improvement of any National League club, finishing 27 Vi games ahead of their 1928 average and soaring from eighth to fifth place. Pittsburgh advanced from fourth to second place and Brooklyn again took sixth place, the other four teams finishing lower than in 1928 when they ranked St. Louis, New York, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Brooklyn, Boston and Philadelphia.
