Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

I demanded. "Slip Madigan. You see hes the . oarh.

At that time it was a college of seventy student;, including the tender snd the bird who u&ed to wash the dormitory windows. The place was located then in Oakland, across the bay from San Francisco, and the natives used to refer to it rather slightingly as the old brick pile’. This was only partially true While the place was old it was hardly pretentious enough to be called a pile. a a a "In those days Slip had a tough time getting a squad together. For nearly three years he was coach, trainer, doctor and robber of the squad and while I question the truth of the statement it has been said that on occasions he used to frot out on the field and run with the ball, especially when a niece of first class running was needed. a a tt "But things have changed. Today the enrollment is more than 700. The Saints have moved back into the hills, about fifteen miles from the Bav. and the sight erlng guides who steer their busses up that wav point with pride to the new Moorish-Spanish buildings that cost two and a half million dollars to build, a a a “OLIP has a lot of material to pick Ofrom now. Why, he even has an assistant coach, though this is still looked upon as an ostentatious display of luxury by the old timers around the college, and not wholly in keeping with the primitive spirit of the picture. There’s a band out there this year for the first time, but I am not optimistic about its future, due to a growing feeling that the presence of saxophones and trombones may be devitalizing to the masculine mood.” a a tt Stevens paused to open another brief case, and I was somewhat disappointed Ibat he didn’t dig into the contraption and come up with Slip and the varsity squad without further ado. a a tt ' The Saints didn’t get going until 1926 when Slip's team went through the season undefeated.

NINE PLAYERS IN ONE DEAL ONE of the biggest strictly minor league deals of recent years has been completed between the Nashville and Knoxville clubs of the Southern Association, nine players being involved. It was an outright trade with no cash included, and was a five for four transaction.

Two other games of importance outside the conference will be staged in this section, with Notre Dame battling Drake and Marquette facing Detroit. Title Hopes at Stake Tlie final solution of the Big Ten football championship is dependent on the outcome of the NorthwesternWisconsin and Michigan-Minnesota games. By beating Wisconsin, Northwestern will at least tie Michigan, for the title. Michigan, however, must defeat Chicago next week to complete its season without defeat, even if the Wolverines down Minnesota. Despite the fact that Coach Stagg has abandoned his customary caution and pronounced the IllinoisChicago game a toss-up, Illinois is a slight favorite in this age old rivalry. Illinois has lost four games in succession, while Chicago has lost three of its last five games and played scoreless ties in the other two. The Big Ten’s representatives in the two intersectional games should add two more victories to the conference’s record. Ohio State’s offense which began to click against navy last week is expected to prove too much for Pittsburgh. lowa Is Favorite lowa has lost four out of six games, but Coach Burt Ingwersen has brought a young team along to a point where it has considerable strength. Penn State, which has either tied or lost its last four games, will go into the game an underdog. The Notre Dame-Drake game at South Bend may prove closer than expected as Coach plans to use his second and third teams. It will be remembered that Drake threw a scare into Notre Dame last season by leading the Irish for three periods, only to lose, 19-7. Detroit, beaten by lowa and Fordham after winning its other games, will attempt to halt Marquette’s undefeated march. Marquette has had only seven points scored on it in seven games.

Logansport May Battle Froebel Eleven for Mythical Prep Title

BY DICK MILLER Teams believing they have a right to place their fingers in the mythical state high school football championship pie today were hopeful that something may be done in the next few days to unravel a perplexing situation. Raymond Trobaugh in his first year as coach at Logansport high school, who has directed the Berries through an eight-game undefeated and untied campaign, this week issued a challenge to the state. Coach Rutherford’s Wiley team of Terre Haute added its sixth Wabash valley conference victory Armistice day, defeating a city rival, Gerstmeyer, 13 to 0. Garfield, who shared the lead with Wiley, fell before Clinton, 25 to 0. As Wiley has been tied and still has a crucial game with Garfield to play on Thanksgiving day, they are claiming nothing. The tie game the Red Streaks played was a scoreless tilt with Casey, 111., and does not mar the Hoosier standing of the Terre Haute eleven. Coach Orville Hooker, at Newcastle, has announced definitely

versity publication, Tuesday, bemoaning the I. U. football team’s position as “the door mat of the western conference.” The editorial points out that the team has good players and good plays; displays brilliant teamwork by flashes, and gets good support from the student body—yet it loses consistently. Without attempting to analyze the puzzling question “What’s wrong with Indiana?” —the editorial concludes: “Whatever may be the causes for Indiana’s numerous failures earlier in the ‘season, there is one thing that is certain—the team, the coaches, the student body and the alumni must pull together and all lend a hand in beating Purdue. We are tired of this long string of defeats.”

Canzoneri to Battle Singer for Mitt Title Tony’s Prophecy of 1929 to Come True When He Meets Conqueror of Mandell in Al’s First Defense of Lightweight Crown. llv > nitid pri ss NEW YORK. Nov. 11—Tony Canzoneri, in addition to being quite a handy man with his fists, is something of a prophet. Back in 1929 Tony, thoughtful to a fault, walked into A1 Singer's dressing room when that young man was mourning his knockout at the hands of Ignacio Fernandez and offered his consolations. “Snap out of It, kid," Tony said. “In a couple of years you ana me ll be fighting for the lightweight title.” Tony was right, for on Friday night at Madison Square Graden, when Blnger and of ends his title for the first time since he won it from Hammy Mandell, the little Italian-American will be his opponent

The two boys are not strangers, in or out of the ring. When Singer was first coming to the front he was matched with Canzoneri, and made such a gallant fight of it that he was awarded the decision. Most of the ; expert*, however, were of the opinion j that Tony wj> s the victim of an unfair verdict. Since that time Singer has gone on to the top and Canzoneri—Fridaynight will tell whether he has gone down or up. Tony, who at 22 is a real ring veteran, insists that he Is a better fighter than the Canzoneri Singer whipped. Because he is champion and the younger of the two. Singer probably will enter the ring as a slight favorite, however, despite his recent poor showing against Eddie Mack in Chicago and in workouts. The fight Friday night will mark Canzoneri’s sixth engagement in a title bout. He twice fought Bud Taylor for the bantamweight championship and whipped Dundee and Bass in his march to the featherweight crown. Sammy Mandell outscored ..him in a lightweight title brawl.

traditional rival, Muncie, and has a team that undoubtedly would show well in faster company. But Hooker appears to have little interest in a state title claim. Johnny Kyle, who had about the best claim to the state championship a few years back, and received The Indianapolis Times’ trophy significant of having the outstanding team of the year as selected by the writer, is back in the challenging role. Two weeks ago, Kyle’s team slumped and fell before Emerson of Gary, 27 to 13, but came back to knock off Horace Mann, 12 to 6. Keith Crown’s Horace Mann team has ruled the northern district for the past several months. Froebel is willing to play Logansport and since the Gary team has finished its schedule, unless called upon to play the winner of the eastern division of the northern Indiana conference for the league title, the game should supply a true line of the comparative strength of Logansport and northern teams. Kyle states the other Gary teams would admit Logansport’s superiority if the Berries can defeat Froebel. A tie looms in both the eastern and western divisions of the northern conference. Froebel may be forced to share the western flag with Roosevelt of East Chicago and Horace Mann or Emerson, while Mishawaka and Michigan City are deadlocked in the eastern race. Froebel and Mishawaka appear to be the outstanding leaders, however, and probably will be named to clash in the Thanksgiving day game for the northern conference championship.
