Ennis and Rufli Back Bulldogs to Have Full Strength for HomeComing Tilt. Butler's chances for victory In the annual rivalry battle with Wabash grid warriors at the bowl here Saturday were boosted Wednesday with the announcement that two stellar linesmen probably would be ready for action, giving the Bulldogs full strength for the fray. Ennis, veteran end, who received an ankle injury in the Dayton game, and Rufli, senior guard, who has missed practice due to an injured eye, both turned out for Wednesday’s drill and probably will start Saturday. Light practice sessions are carded for the Blue pastimers the rest of this week, Coach Harry Bell not wanting to risk the possibility of Injuries in scrimmage sessions. A three-hour Kirill, featured by a scrimmage against the yearlings, occupied the Bulldogs’ practice session Wednesday. Coach Bell ordered the lights turned on to complete the practice. Wabash plays failed to make much headway against the Blue defense. SCARLET DRILL LONG CRAWFORDS VILLE, Ind„ Oct. 28.—Wabash eased up in practice today after one of the longest and hardest sessions of the season Wednesday in preparation for Saturday’s trip to Butler.

Three other sophomore backs also were given special attention in Wednesday’s practice, including Peterson and Radford, half backs and Meese, quarter back.
Purdue to ‘Shoot Works’ Against Crippled Maroons
By United Press LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. 29. Anxious to redeem themselves for their defeat at the hands of Wisconsin two weeks afeo, the Purdue Boilermakers are not likely to show any mercy to the Chicago Maroons Saturday. Coach Noble Kizer's pastimers will be out Saturday to show the grid world they truly are a great team, and will cut loose with all their brilliant back field strength in an effort to convince fans the Wisconsin upset was just “one of those things.” Kizer polished off the Boilermaker

Hanley Drives Wildcats for Illini Battle ISy I nitrd free* EVANSTON, 111., Oct. 29.—Working the Northwestern Wildcats as though they were underdogs instead of favorites to win the Big Ten title, Coach Dick Hanley hasn’t given his team much chance to get overconfident regarding Saturday’s game against Illinois.

Price Cut By Times Special ANN ARBOR, Mich., Oct. 29.—University of Michigan athletic authorities have scaled down prices for the In-diana-Michigan game Nov. 7. Michigan attendance figures in the past have been among the highest in the country, but the depression is being felt. Since 1917 a price of $3 has been maintained for seats at all local Big Ten grid tilts, but for the Indiana game this fall only seats between, the 20-yard lines will sell for that sum. Those between the 20-yard lines and goal posts will sell for $2 and others for sl.
Tommy Wants Sharkey Bout By United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—James Johnston, new Madison Square Garden matchmaker, has another feature heavyweight scrap half-way lined up, a return go between Tommy Loughran and Jack Sharkey. Loughran, it seems, is convinced his knockout by Sharkey was all a horrible mistake, and won’t be satisfied until he proves same. Sharkey and his manager, however, seem perfectly competent to let the matter stand as is, and insist on suggesting that Johnston pair Loughran with Ernie Schaaf. This one won’t come off, for Johnston knows that a fifth go between this pair wouldn’t draw.

Unbeaten Columbia, Cornell Elevens Clash in Top Tilt
BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—Further reduction on the east's select little group of seven unbeaten and untied football elevens is in prospect for Saturday. Columbia’s invasion of Cornell provides the feature contest. Lou Little’s New York team earned ranking with the eastern leaders by walloping Dartmouth and for the first time in a decade is a candidate for sectional honors. If Captain Ralph Hewitt and his mates can duplicate last year’s 10 to 7 triumph over Cornell they appear likely to complete their season undefeated. Although Columbia has a strong line, Cornell is believed to have more strength in its forward wall and this factor has made Gil Dobie's team a favorite. Syracuse, which invades Lansing, Mich., for a tilt with Michigan State, expects plenty of trouble. The Michigan outfit was defeated by Army, but has won all its other games impressively. Brown, boasting impressive victories over Princeton, Tufts and Lehigh, hopes for a triumph over its traditional rival, Holy Cross. New York univeritfv is a topheavy favorite to defeat Oregon. The western team was held to a
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Indiana Sharpens Pass Attack for Buckeyes Warner System Meets Warner System in Crimson HomeComing Tussle Saturday; Opasik and Sabik to Be Key Men in Hoosiers’ Air Raid. By Times Special ' BLOOMINGTON. Ind., Oct. 29.—Indiana’s offense against Ohio State here Saturday probably will depend largely on forward passing. A strong aerial attack which blossomed forth for the first time against Chicago last Saturday will be in even better shape for the home-coming struggle with the Buckeyes. Opasik and" Sabik will be key men in the Crimson air raid. Opasik did the bulk of the hurling last Saturday while Sabik, though ready, was held back as the ace in the hole. Sabik, who tosses ’em accurately up to sixty yards, has completely recovered from practice season injuries. In the fifteen times the Hoosiers and Buckeyes have tangled on the gridiron, Indiana has triumphed six times. Ohio State seven, and two tilts have resulted in deadlocks. Indiana held the Buckeyes to a scoreless tie in 1929. They scored tl?eir last triumph in 1924.

The Kansas Aggies, leaders of the Big Six conference, were en route east today to meet West Virginia Saturday at Morgantown in an intersectional football game, ’ In the Kansas Aggie style of play, the east will see a five-man back field, developed by Coach Bo McMillin, all-America from Centre college. McMillin uses a right full back and a left full back, giving his back field an additional ball carrier and making for more deceptive execution of trick plays. JAPAN GREETS STARS By United Press TOKIO, Oct. 29.—Thousands of cheering natives lined the streets of Tokio today to welcome a group of American baseball players who arrived by special boat train for a tour of Japan.

Midwestern Grid Supremacy Fading—Noire Dame Lone Survivor
BY LARRY MacPHAIL National Football Authority FOR the last several years the middle west has dominated intercollegiate football. The answer is mainly Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish }iave had great teams in four of the last five years. Northwestern, Michigan and Purdue in recent seasons have made the middle west’s intersectional edge even more convincing. That supremacy may or may not be tottering this fall. The season is half gone and there is no new champion in sight, simply because no team has yet knocked off the old champ. The question mark at Notre Dame seems to be the development

KIRN REJOINS NAVY By United Press ANNAPOLIS, Md., Oct. 29.—Lou Kirn has returned to right half back and navy's back field now appears stronger than at any time this season. Kirn worked with Tschigi, Campbell and Denny in Wednesday’s drill.
An interesting feature of Saturday’s fray here will be the clash of two teams using the Warner wingback system. Indiana is using the Warner offense with a little of the Michigan close punt formation thrown in, and the Michigan system of defense. Ohio State is a confirmed Warner school. Ohio State has been a problem this season. Pre-campaign dope indicated the Buckeyes none to strong, but they attracted attention with a ten-touchdown win over Cincinnati U. Then came the loss to Vanderbilt, but State blossomed forth with a win over Michigan the next week. Last Saturday, Coach Sam Willaman’s outfit put up a great battle against the spectacular Northwestern Wildcats, title favorites, losing 10 to 0. Coach Billy Hayes rapidly is installing his new system at I. U. He is giving his green sophomore material “football background” and they are showing improvement with each game. Ohio, with its speedy backs and fast charging linemen, is the favorite Saturday, but the Hayesmen will be out to spring a surprise. STATE USES TWO GROUPS COLUMBUS, 0., Oct. 29.—Two separate back fields, specializing in speed and power, will be employed by Ohio State against Indiana Saturday.

City Schools Ban Night Grid Tilts; Curtail Two Seasons
Postponing effect of its decisions until next year a committee of city public high school officials Wednesday discontinued night football games and shortened football and basketball seasons of city high schools. Night football was abolished because the committee decided it drew a type of audience not desirable, for high school sports, and because‘the gridiron is usually slippery after sundown and more dangerous to players. In the future no school will play more than two games prior to Oct. 1, and the basketball season, after this year, will not begin until Dec. 1.

Baseball Pays Final Tribute to Comiskey, Late White Sox Owner
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 29.—The final rites were held today for Charles A. Comiskey, late owner of the Chicago White Sox, and one of baseball’s foremost pioneers. Hundreds of the “Old Roman’s” associates, friends and admirers gathered at St. Thomas the Apostle church on the south side to pay final tribute to the veteran baseball leader who rose from the players’ ranks to the ownership of one of the most valuable franchises in baseball. All of the American League clubs were represented and most of the National League clubs. Among the baseball officials who attended the services were Commissioner K. M. Landis, whose office was created as a result of the 1919 Black Sox scandal; Will Harridge, president of
but each lacks experience. If the judgment of either falters, Notre Dame may be defeated. And if Notre Dame Is beaten, that tornado of past seasons, mid-west supremacy in football, will have degenerated into a gentle breeze. The caliber of Big Ten elevens this fall is not enough to keep it going.
Summer training camps were not barred by the committee, which felt that a later opening of the grid season will offset their detrimental effect. The committee reiterated its stand for medical attention for players, ifi games where physical injuries may be expected, and urged coaches to allow no boy to play if he was not in top condition. The committee was comprised of K. V. Ammerman, Broad Ripple; Russell Julius, Shortridge; Justin Marshall, Washington; Fred Gorman, Tech; Russell Clunie, Manual, and Emory James, Crispus Attucks.

THE most threatening gestures are coming from the west coast. St. Mary’s is poison—nothing less. Slip Madigan opened against Southern California and California and took them both. Unfortunately, the east won’t get to see St. Mary’s this year. The Gaels meet Southern Methodist, the southwest’s leading contender for national honors, in a Dec. 5 game. One of the first of the far west’s all-America candidates to emerge this fall is Bill Fisher of St. Mary’s. They say on the coast that his sensational play at guard for the Gaels was largely responsible for the St. Mary’s triumphs. Despite a loss to Madigan’s team in the season’s opener, Southern California will come east Nov. 21 expecting to win from Notre Dame. In Arbelbide at end, Mohler at quarter back and Pinckert at full back, Head Man Jones has three of the great players of the season. tt tt tt FOOTBALL was born in the east, but quite some*time ago it took old Horace Greeley’s advice to “Go west.” And it forgot the way back. But this fall you’ve heard rumblings from the seaboard. Chick Meehan’s hat is in the ring. His New York university team has power and versatility and it’s exceptionally well coached.

Jack Denies Sharkey Go Dempsey Claims He Has Not Been Approached on Chicago Scrap. By United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 29.—Jack Dempsey has not been approached for a match with Jack Sharkey, Leonard Sachs, business manager of the former heavyweight champion, said today in denying reports from Boston that a second Dempsey-Sharkey fight would be staged In Chicago next June. ' > Sachs said after a long-distance telephone conversation with Dempsey that the former champion was not yet ready to open negotiations for his second comeback.
