PURDUE’S BATTLE WITH BADGERS TOPS BIG TEN GRID BILL

Rivals Are Undefeated Boilermakers, in HomeComing Fray, Seek Revenge for 1931 Loss. By f nitrrl PrrM LAFAYETTE, Ind , Oct. 11—One of the three Big Ten leaders is certain to fall by the wayside this week when Wisconsin's surprise team meets Purdue's veteran eleven In Saturday's most important western conference game here. It will be home-coming day for the Boilermakers. Michigan, the other pacemaker, is expected on advance dope to hurdle Ohio State, but the Wolverines’ tripped over the Buckeyes last year and the game may be a thriller if Coach Sam Willaman can get the Scarlet and Gray offense clicking. Since Wisconsin and Purdue resumed football relations in 1925, their annual game has been a close, hard-fought battle. Badgers Hold Edge In seven games Wisconsin has won three, Purdue two, and two were ties. The only one which w'as won by more than two touchdowns was Purdue's 13-0 victory in 1929, the year the Boilermakers won the undisputed Big Ten title. . Last year Wisconsin scored three touchdowns in the first period, and won out 21-14, the only defeat on Purdue’s 1931 record. Wisconsin's 34-0 victory over lowa, even though the Hawkeyes are young, inexperienced and handicapped by a change in coaches, indicates Dr. Clarence W. Spears has developed a strong offensive machine in his first year at the Madison school. Joe Linform, Des Moines (la.) boy, looked like one of the best running backs in the conference in the lowa game. Purdue Stars Injured Purdue came through its gruelling game with Minnesota in good shape. Duane Purvis, half back; Doxie Moore, half back; Ben Merz, end, and Dutch Fehring, tackle, received a few bruises but will be ready for action again Saturday. Regular practice was resumed today after members of the Purdue team were given a day of rest to help them recover from the Minnesota game. Instead of an outdoor session, Coach Noble Kizer gave the players a brief lecture on the Wisconsin running attack which overwhelmed lowa last week. The other two conference games this week bring together Northwestern and Illinois at Urbana. and lowa and Indiana at Bloomington. For the last two years, Northwestern has crushed the Illini, 32-0 and 32-6, and Coach Bob Zuppke is anxious to avenge those defeats. Zuppke has been bringing his young team along slowly in three warm up games, but will turn it loose full force against the Wildcats. Illinois End Returns The eligibility of Hunter Russell, fast end of two years ago, has added strength to one of the weakest spots on the Illinois team. After its 7-7 tie with Ohio State, the big and ‘strong Indiana eleven expects to get into the win column this week with a victory over lowa. In two nonconference games Minnesota plays Nebraska at Minneapolis and Chicago has a breather with Knox.

2 N. D. Sophs Given Chance By I nitrd Press SOUTH BEND. Ind., Oct. 11. The only tangible results of Saturdays victory over Haskell in the Notre Dame grid camp today were two changes in the second team lineup. Dominic Vairo, sophomore left end from Calumet. Mich., was in Sturla Canale’s place with the shock troops. Dick Pfefferle of Appleton. Wis., replaced Mike Leding of South Bend at left tackle with the second team. Vairo showed little in spring practice, but has developed fast this fall, working his way up from the fifth team. Calumet. Mich., is the home of George Gipp and Coach Hunk Anderson, so Vairo may be another star before he gets through. An all-day rain drove the team ihdoors Monday for signal drill. IRISH FACE SPARTANS Connersville. beaten only once in two years, is the next foe to face Joe Dienhart’s Cathedral eleven, with action scheduled at Butler bowl Friday afternoon. Three Irish past imers—Breen. half back; Farrell, guard, and Delaney, tackle—are out with slight injuries, but will be ready for Friday's tilt.

sippian personally, ‘he doesn't think so much of him as a ball player. It seems that Hughey drops too many throws, both from his infielders and outfielders, to be offset by his occasional breath-taking stops and pegs. It also is reported that several of the Giants consider Critz an “average player.” By average, we cjpn't mean ordinary. In baseball parlance an “average player” is one who always is thinking about his fielding percentage and so thinks twice before going after a ball he might miss.

♦ Cruising in Sportland ♦ BY EDDIE ASH

CONNIE MACK, the dean of big league managers, usually steers clear of stove league sessions, but it is evident he is going in for the “next season” conversation in abig way now. No doubt the tall leader realizes his sale of three mainstays, Simmons, Haas and Dykes calls for him to give the fans some information on his plans for 1933 and as a result he has issued a tentative lineup and batting order which may or may not hold up when the next campaign gets under way. It follows: Bishop, 2b; Cramer, cf; Cochrane, c; Coleman, rs; Foxx, lb; Higgins, 3b; McNair, ss; Finney, If, and the pitcher. n tt THE new pastimers on that roster are Higgins, at third; Finney, in left, and Coleman in right. Cramer had made good the past season when forced out on account of injuries. Ed Miller, displaced by Coleman in the stove league lineup, is still on the Athletic roster. Age has overtaken Ed. It is said Mack also will have available Bob Johnson as an extra fly chaser. He batted .330 in the Coast league this year. However, the veteran Miller is expected to give Coleman heated competition for the right field berth. ant: Lou Finney, up from Portiand, walloped | the sphere for .351 with the Beaver penI nant winners and Higgins. back from the ' same club, hit .326. This Higgins is capable of belting home runs, his total circuit blows for the Webfeet nine reaching thirty-three in ’32. Moreover, the new Mackian third-sacker pilfered twenty bases. Coleman is a giant left-handed swinger and was handicapped with the Athletics this year owing to bad luck on bruises. The lineup Mack is discussing has plenty of young blood in it, but it seems it is topheavy with left-handed hitters, five out of eight. an a CONNIE has announced there will be no sales or trades involving mainstay pitchers unless trouble crops over salary terms, and if that * happens the veteran pilot says he will lose no time in arranging deals to unload the balky boys. He announces what he believes will be his first string mound staff as follows: Grove, Earnshaw. Walberg, Freitas, Mahaffey. Cain, McDonald, Peterson and Claset. The last-named starred with Montreal this year, was bought in mid-sea-son and left with the Royals to finish out the International schedule. a a a Claset is a whole lot of man. weighirg about 220 and reaching skyward 6 feet 2 inehe3. He is a southpaw and will team with Grove, Walberg and Freitas fer the lefty assignments at Philadelphia, if he makes the grade. His control is said to be excellent for a lefty, but there's always the danger of control being too good when facing big league swatters. The huge fellow will add color to Mack's southpaw staff, Grove and Walberg, lanky and ihinny, and Freitas a little runt.

Lindstrom may be disappointed that he didn't get the club, but he doesn't hold any grudge against Terr/.

TT will be Big Ten home-coming time in Hoosierland this Saturday and the football parties are organizing for hip-hip hooray excursions to Bloomington and Lafayette, homes of the Scrappin’ Hoosiers and Boilermakers, respectively. With Purdue and Indiana off to fine conference starts this fall the chests of the alumni of both schools are seeking an outlet for cheers and it’s a good guess the blasting will be launched Saturday. The Crimson is favored to tip over lowa and Purdue is expected to outscore the Badgers after a hectic fight. tt tt o Anyway you take it there will be streams of fans pouring out of Indianapolis headed for the hills and valleys of Monroe county and the banks of the Wabash at Lafayette.

Starr, Mancuso Join Giants in Cards* Deal

Bill Walker and Jim Mooney, Southpaw Hurlers, Vet Bob O'Farrell and Ethan Allen Go to St. Louis for Young Battery. By United Press NEW YORK. Oct. 11.—Bill Terry, young manager, made his first move today to rebuild the New York Giants, who tied for sixth place with the St. Louis Cardinals in the National League pennant race, one of the outstanding failures of the major league season. Terry announced he had traded southpaw pitchers Bill Walker and Jim Mooney, Bob O'Farrell, veteran catcher, and Ethan Allen, fast but light hitting outfielder, to the Cardinals for right-hand pitcher Ray Starr and Gus Mancuso. young catcher. It was a player swap only, with no money involved. Terry admitted this trade was just the beginning of a general reorganization of the club. However, he offered no intimations as to the principals in future deals. Terry said he wanted to inject new blood iftto the club. He believes several of the players have gone stale by remaining in the same environment too long and that they will snap out of their lethargy in other uniforms.

Walker and Mocfiey had poor seasons. Walker finished with eight won and twelve lost. O’Farrell, sec-ond-string catcher, is 35 years old and well past his prime. He formerly managed the Cardinals. Allen was on the bench most of the season. playing in only fifty-four games, batting .175. Starr, Mancuso Comers The two players from St, Louis look like “comers'’ to Terry. Mancuso is rated one of the most promising catchers in the big leagues, although he played second fiddfle to Jimmy Wilson in St. Louis. He can hit, field, peg and has a good head. He is 27 and bats and throws righthanded. Starr, 25-year-old right-hander, is more or less an unknown. He made an excellent showing with Rochester of the International League in 1932, and when the Cards brought him back to the home club late in the season he turned in a couple of dazzling performances for them, most notable of which was his 3-0 shutout over Brooklyn when pitted against Dazzy Vance. Walker in Big Slump Mooney looked like a big-timer at the close of the 1931 season when the Chants brought him up from Bridgeport. He turned in seven straight victories, but in 1932 he was unable to get going. Walker, who came to the Giants from the Denver club at a reported cost of $25,000, also failed this year after a brilliant 1931 campaign, in which he won nineteen, lost nine and led the league in effectiveness.
