TWO FLASHY BACKS TO LEAD ILLINOIS AGAINST PURDUE

Purdue’s ‘Unsung Hero’

One of the young men tolling on the gridiron for Noble Kizer and old Purdue, Is Jack White. Jack is an important part of that famous veteran quartet of backs He does the signal barking, and an excellent job of it, too. You rarely read about him because he leaves most of the ball carrying to Risk, Purvis, Yunevich, Horstman and the others. But he’s one of the most important cogs. He’s in their thinking all the time, blocking the way for the ball carriers and he can do some fancy passing when he feels it’s the right thing. During his sophomore year, when he directed Purdue to the Big Ten crown, he didn’t carry the ball once. He’ll be calling the signals Saturday for the Boilermakers against Illinois at Lafayette.

Berry and Cook Star Boilermaker Line Faces Real Test in Big Ten Opener. LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. 7.—lllinois’ great showing against St. Louis university, an eleven that uses practically the same type of offense as Purdue, has given the Boilermakers plenty to worry about as they prepare to meet Bob Zuppke’s up and coming eleven here Saturday. It will be the Big Ten opener for both teams and the “Dad’s day” attraction for the Old Gold and Black. With Oil Berry hitting the same ground gaining gait that made him an outstanding back last season, and Dave Cook, 200-pound triple threat sophomore, uncovered as a brilliant player in his own right, the Illini will present a back field that ate up ground In great gulps against St, Louis. At the same time, the Illinois forward wall, bigger and more rugged than last season, is primed to stop the ramblings of Purdue's great collection of backs. gophers Drill for Cardinals By Timet Special OAKLAND, Cal., Oct. 7.—Minnesota’s Gophers, here for their big intersectional gridiron battle Saturday with Stanford, started work today on new offensive formations to be used against the Cardinals.

Sox Take City Series Al Thomas Holds Cubs in Final Game of Chicago Play. By United Pret* CHICAGO, Oct. 7.—Donie Bush’s White Sox today held the baseball championship of Chicago, gained when they defeated their north side rivals, the Cubs, 7 to 2, in the seventh and deciding game of the city series Tuesday. It was the first time since 1926 that the American

Leaguers held the title. The Sox virtually won the deciding game in one inning, the fourth, when they pounded Bob (Smith and Jakie May for six hits and as many runs to break a 1-1 deadlock. Tommy Thomas, who went the route for the Sox, held

\ jk

the Cubs to four hits. During the

Bush

series the supposed weak-hitting Sox, who finished last in their own league, made sixty-six hits to the slugging Cubs’ forty-three. Manager Hornsby used seven pitchers, while Bush needed only four. The series drew 137,451 fans, who paid $154,124.50, of which the players received $37,108.10, Each White Sox player received about S7OO and each Cub player about SSOO.

Pickerd Is Tagged for 2 Losses Two losses in one night—that’s the unenviable record of Walter Pickerd, local heavyweight. In the first place, the big blonde came out on the short end of a ten-round ring tussle with Benny Touchstone, Detroit veteran, at the Armory on Tuesday night. An additional wallop was landed by John Law, when Walter had his share of the purse attached. Pickerd is doing his fighting out of Bud Taylor's stable at Terre Haute now. He formerly was managed by Mike Mitchell of this city. After Tuesday’s bout, deputy sheriffs greeted Pickerd in his dressing room with attachment papers, sworn out by Mitchell, who claims Pickerd still owes him for an automobile he purchased from .Mitchell. Gerald Ely, Legion boxing matchmaker, and Bud Taylor, Pickerd’s manager, also were served with papers. The case is scheduled to come up in municipal court on Oct. 15. Repeated low blows contributed to Pickerd's defeat and Touchstone's left banged into Walter's face often and with enough force to carry the verdict. Pickerd landed the harder punches and shook the veteran Bennv with some solid blows. It was a close verdict, in which one official gave a draw verdict and the other two voted in favor or Pickerd. Although he held a slight edge in each of the first three rounds. Pickerd received the credit on The Times’ scorecard for only the first, low blows costing him in the other two. A rally in the sixth, seventh and tenth frames practically evened the count for Pickerd on The Times’ record. A semi-windup which rivaled the main go for action and slugging honors saw Billy Rose, the veteran Cincinnati welter, make a strong finish to outscore Peter Mike, local puncher. It was close all the way. George Welsh. Chicago heavy, failed to last the first round of his scheduled sixstanza argument with Andy Kellett, Terre Haute red-head. He took a terrific beating for two minutes before going out. Eph Virt, local middleweight, lost on a

15,000 Fans 800 Leonard’s ‘Knockout’ Win in Comeback

BY DIXON STEWART United Press SUIT Cor respondent NEW YORK, Oct. 7. Even though Benny Leonard remained out of the ring for seven years, he apparently kept in close enough touch with boxing to learn modern practices. Benny no longer is the shifting shadow who ruled the lightweight class from 1917 until he retired undefeated —and independently wealthy—in 1924. Instead, the Leonard who made his “comeback” debut Tuesday night with a tworound “knockout” over Pal Silvers of Brooklyn, is a pudgy, slowfooted old man of 35, making a desperate effort to recoup the fortune lost in stock speculation. The 15,000 spectators who paid $25,000 to witness Leonard’s debut at Queensboro stadium were disappointed. Benny scored his “knockout” in the manner made famous —or infamous, if you will—by Primo Camera. The technical knockout In the second round to Howard Webb of Louisville. Kv*. after taking the first frame. He was ordered from thtf ring with a severe head cut. Tiger Lvons of Cincinnati and Bruce Britt of Terre Haute slugged out a sixround draw, and Al Grande of Terre Haute met Eddie Roberts, local bantam, in what the officials called a four-round “draw.” Muggs Kerr, local heavyweight, and Tonv Cancels of Detroit meet in next Tuesday’s top scrap. Legion officials announced. CHICAGO STARS OUT CHICAGO, Oct. 7.—lnjuries probably will keep Paul Stagg, University of Chicago quarter, back, out of Saturday’s game with Michigan. The Maroon back field will be in bad shape if Pat Page Jr. fails to pass his German examination today, postponed from Tuesday.

spectators, who sat in stunned silence as the once unhittable Leonard had his face peppered red by an opponent who wouldn't have been considered worthy of carrying the gloves of the Leonard of a decade ago, greeted Silvers’ “dive” with boos and catcalls, and for the first time in his career, Leonard was hooted as he left the ring.
