Rockne Praises Champion Boilermakers and Predicts -^Another Victory.

Notre Dame Coach Looks for Real Battle on Part of I. U. HAS FEAR OF WILDCATS Knute Figures Wolverines to Beat lowa. BY KNUTE ROCKNE, Member All-America Football Board (Re*. U. 8. Patent Office) This certainly has been a hazardous fall for picking teams. The strenuous schedules no doubt are responsible for the fluctuations in form. This Saturday Indiana plays Purdue. Regardless of the outcome Purdue is the champion of the Big Ten and everybody’s hat roes to Jimmy Phelan and his allant little band who, with very ew substitutions, waded through heir schedule in such an effective inshion. It is not, however, without the 1 ounds of possibility that Purdue ill let down enough to let Indiana in, but it is hardly likely. There i . too much at stake in this annual iioosier classic. I pick Purdue. Predicts lowa Slump Illinois seems to have a slight dge on Ohio State and I pick Michigan to win from lowa. lowa has played its heart out for two Saturdays in a row and they are bound to slump. The Wisconsin-Minne-ota game looks like a tossup with the edge in favor of Wisconsin. Doc Spears has had some serious iniuries. Asa matter of fact, Wisconsin in the three games it has lost hat lost to top-notch teams only and they j are the only teams so far to win ■ over Colgate. The University of Washington invades Stagg field for what ought to be an interesting struggle. I pick Washington to win. Northwestern Feared Notre Dame should win from Northwestern Saturday, tut you never can tell. Stung to the quick by their unexpected defeat by In- j diana last Saturday, Dick Hanley's boys probably will be out there rooting like a lot of infuriated hogs, whereas Notre Dame is bound to i crack somewhere along the line. Northwestern has played fine ball I in the high spots of its schedule j this year. The line from end to end j has ranked with the best, while Bergherm at full back has shown! himself to be one of the most versatile gridders in the country. It will take a lot to beat the Wildcats Saturday. Oregon State, which startled the football world p. year ago by its victory over the great New York university team, invades Detroit to play Gus Dorias's superb eleven. It is doubtful, however, if Orgcon State can repeat their upset of a year ago The Wabash-De Pauw annual fray looks like an even up prepo- j sition, but I give a slight edge in , favor of Wabash.

Rockne's Selections for Saturday Tilts Piirdvp to take Indiana. Illinois has slight edge over Ohio State. Mirhigan to win over lowa. Wisconsin frvoretl over Minnesota. Washington to defeat Chicago. Notre Dame should heat Northwestern. Kansas to beat Missouri. Oklahoma to win over Oklahoma Aggies. Oregon State to bow to Detroit. Drake to ta':e Temple. Wabash slight edge over De Pauw.

New York Boxer Here Monday Has Met Star Opponents

Tony Pellegrino, Now York Italian, who tackles Lou Terry, St. Louis, at Tomlinson hall here Monday night, boasts of scor.ng a short knockdown on A1 Singer, famous Gotham pug. Pellegrino mot Singer in a Brooklyn ring and put up a great fight, though losing on points in ten rounds. Tony has victories in his record over such well-known lads as A1 (Rube) Goldberg. Pancho Dencio, Marty Silvers and Johnny Lawson, and a draw with Young Zazzerino. one of the recent fistic sensations in the east. Indianapolis fans are familiar with Lou Terry’s caliber, for he performed at the Armory last winter and beat Jimmy Borde and battled on about even terms with ' !; e Anderson.

sa ™ a ' '<s,„S

DIXIE sport writers are boosting Gene McEver for high consideration when the experts start picking their all-America teams. McEver is the speed merchant half back with the University of Tennessee, and in the opinion of numerous scribes down that way is one of the greatest ball toters and all-around grid performers the south ever has produced, which is saying a lot. He stands 5 and 9 and weighs close to 185. His legs are extremely heavy, but do not cut his speed. His specialty is running back kick-offs for long gains.

Wabash Grid men Ready for Annual Battle With De Pauw Early Home-Coming Fans Arrive for Thirty-Third Renewal of Classic; Rivals Appear Evenly Matched.

Hu Time* Special CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 22.—Light workouts completed Wabash’s preparation for the thirtythird annual rivalry contest with De Pauw here Saturday. In eighteen of the previous battles, the Scarlet gridders have triumphed, ten victories going to De Pauw and four battles ending in ties. Early home-coming arrivals were on the campus today, and festivities are to begin tonight with a pep session and pajama parade. The largest crowd of the season is expected at the game, which will end the 1929 campaign of both teams. On paper, the two teams appear evenly matched. Both lost to Butler by two touchdowns. Wabash has had a hectic season and has nlayed ir on'istan'lv. Coach Vaughan has instructed his squad in several new iormut.cns to use against the Old Gold, and the Wabash gridders have shown more enthusiasm in their drills this week than for any other contest of the season. A shift In the Scarlet line-up is expectad for Saturday’s game. Rehberg, former Evansville player, continued to hold down a tackle berth in the workout Thursday.

Long Prelim Card Filled for Tuesday Greene Lines Up List of Ten Boxers; Wagner to Train Here. The Eddie (Kid) Wagner-Billy Rose feature at the Armory Tuesday night will be preceded by a sixround semi-windup which the matchmaker promises will be of the “redhot” brand, and as soon as contracts are returned the names ot the contestants will be made public. In the meantime, Major Greene has completed the task of matching up ten * prelim performers in five four-round scraps, as follows: Bruce Britt. Terre Haute, vs. Willard Brown, Indianapolis; featherweights. Henry Brentlenger, Terre Haute, vs. Young Jess, Indianapolis; flyweights. Young Teach, Indianapolis, vs. Young French. Indianapolis; bantamweights. Rex Whitehead. Anderson, Ind., vs. Jimmie Reynolds. Ft. Harrison; lightweights. Bob Sparks. Anderson, Ind., vs. Soldier Goolsby, Ft. Harrison; middleweights. The top six, between Bruce Britt and Willard Brown, looks especially promising. Brown is the boy who’ knocked out Spike Kelly at the Armory two weeks ago. Eddie (Kid) Wagner will wind up his training here at the Arcade gym ever the week-end, and will box with sparmates both Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Talking It Over

(Continued From Fage 33) Giganticos to San Antonio, McGraw will carry his ciuh into Mexico tor a couple of ?ames over some nice week-end. act But the grand tour of the republic to the south has been abandoned, for reasons quite similar to those which keep the Giants and ether big league clubs from training in Cuba. a a a THERE are rumors, disturbing and hardly to be believed. The wise boys out in Chicago say that the “great” Shires, champion of American League dugouts, never will take part in that boxing match for which he is reported to have signed in the Garden here. They do say that Judge Landis will step in and stop Shires from “defiling” his baseball reputation with actual appearance in the professional ring. a a a There Is no objection to Shires’ eonuse of White Sox managers as sparring partners That matter will be entirely in the hands of Owen Bush, who has ta!:en the p!acc of Lena Blackburne a palpable set-up for Shires either on the field or in hotel rooms. Bi:t Landis is re--orted to be opposed t othe public appearance of the soul of the White Sox with boxing stoves on his fists. a a i IN discussing the Carnegie Foundation report recently, Rev. Charles L. O’Donnell, president of Notre Dame, made an interestin'” ebservation. He said that football and the so-called abuses dug up by the Foundation’s probers did not oresent the moot serious side of the colleges’ task in setting itself right with the public. a a a “Yft arc most concerned now with the false idea of college life given by motion pictures,” sr.id Father O’Donnell. ‘‘Football can take care of itself. But now about those films of wild parties, drink•ng and the like which convey to the general public the idea that every colirae is a sort of country ciub?” OREGON MEETS DETROIT EVANSTON, HI., Nov. 22.—The Oregon State football squad left here early today for Detroit, where it will play ihe undefeated University of Detroit team Saturday.

Paul Balav ONE of the most important cogs in the Indiana university football machine is Paul Balay, former Tech star, Pat Page's most versatile back. The husky balltoter is one of the best punters in the conference, and has been doing most of the forward pass tessing for the Crimson. His blocking, has accounted for several long gains by his teammates. Page has used Balay at quarter, half and full.

Frosh Down Varsity Men Butler Yearlings in Win Over Regulars. Butler’s promising freshman football team added insult to injury Thursday when they took the Bulldog varsity into camp for an 8 to 0 victory. Asa result, Coach Potsy Clark has ordered more intensive drills in preparation for the Thanksgiving day battle here with Loyola. Fumbles, which helped Millikin defeat the Blue and White machine here last week, again marred the play of the Clarkmen. The yearling eleven held a weight edge over the varsity. Sammy Polizotto, speedy Gary product, scored in the first three minutes of play, taking a lateral pass on 10-yard line and galloping across. Forbes, 200pound freshman lineman, blocked Royce's punt for a safety.

IT'S all fixed for Wallie Pipp to tak? the place of Charlie O Leary as New York Yankee coach, according to some inside info released by Joe Williams, sports editor of the New York Telegram. If it happens it will be a tough break for O'Leary, for he has be?n on that job for many years. Charlie managed the Indianapolis club years ago when instill was cavorting as a short stop. O'Leary has done a lot of good turns in his life despite the fact some people want to see him bounced out of the Yankee stadium. u tt b Speaking of tough breaks, many workers for ’lenry Ford got it when they were knocked out of employment shortly before he announced a wage increase. n a b It is saftl Outfielder Eddie Roush, the prominent Hoosier, is to remain with the Giants next season but won’t attempt to play the entire schedule.
