P'OLLOWERS of high school football in Indianapolis don’t know which way to jump nowadays when they wish to See the youthful warriors go about the business of toting and chasing the pigskin. For instance, there were four games carded on local gridirons this afternoon and one billed for tonight. Shortridge invaded the south side to take on Manual, and advance interest indicated the presence of some of the hot rivalry that went with this clash years ago. However, the “spread” of high schools over the city, east, west, north and south has removed the prep sport bitterness that usually made Shortridge and Manual virtually armed camps on the eve of a battle in the old days. Street fighting that followed one game between the Red and Blue led to the abolishment of high school football for a long stretch of years and the game wasn’t restored locally until officials felt sure high school rivalry had been distributed sufficiently to tone down the fireworks. a a a a a a FIRST, Technical was added to the Indianapolis field and later Washington and Broad Ripple came in under the city supervision. Then the private schools. Cathedral and Park, Joined the interscholastic group for games now and then w’ith city school elevens, making seven high In all for the Hoosier capital. Moreover, Southport, nearest neighbor south, started scheduling with Indianapolis teams and the suburban Cardinals have demonstrated they are hard nuts to crack in any kind of an athletic contest. City prep football is well-governed and more and more the state colleges are looking to Indianapolis for talent. The youngsters have developed rapidly under wise coaching and nearly every game staged supplies entertainment of high order. 000 a a a WHEN the veteran inflelder, Charlie Dressen. was made eligible for the world series, with the consent of Washington, the Giants got ! a break. Charlie saw no action in the classic, but he supplied some valu- I able information. In the fourth game, with the bases loaded with Senators and one down, the Senators sent up young Bolton as a pinch hitter. Manager Terry and other Giants went into a huddle to discuss the situation and the batter. None of the regulars knew how fast Bolton was. Charlie Dressen knew and sent out the tip from the bench that Bolton was a slow runner. Terry says it was then the Giants decided to try for a double play. Ryan and Critz moved back and Carl Hubbell made Bolton hit into the ground. It was a cinch. Bolton bounced to Ryan and the result was a twin killing, ending the game. a a a BUB PAUL RICHARDS, second string catcher with the Giants, is ambidextrous and he used to be a pitcher in the Western Association. In a game one day, Charlie Wilson, formerly of the Cardinals, who is a “switch” hitter, faced Richards, and when Richards changed throwing hands Wilson shifted from one side of the plate to the other. Every time Wilson switched Richards wanted to throw with a different arm. This was kept up for a time until the umpire called a halt and compelled Richards to announce in advance which hand he would throw with, allowing the batter to select his side of the plate. The clown stuff annoyed the fans. a a a a a a 'T'HEY have found a bearded prize fighter. He is Allan Morasas, amateur heavyweight of Boston, and he wears the whiskers long. What Chuck Wiggins would do to that beard! Chuck used to reach out occasionally and tweak the nose of Iris opponent and he certainly would not pass up grabbing a handful of chin alfalfa. a a a a a a THE New Deal backfired on A1 Mamaux, for three years manager of the Newark Internationals. He was let out. He led the Bears to first place in the regular race two years and finished second once. Newark j finished the 1933 campaign in top position by fourteen and a half games, i but lost out in the post-season play-off. a a a a a a Phil Weintraub, former Indianapolis player, and now a rookie with the Giants, was ineligible for world series play. However, it was his bat that won the title for the Giants. Mel Ott used Phil’s bludgeon when he combed that tenth-inning victory homer in the last game. a a a a a a DUANE PURVTS, Purdue Boilermaker half back, believes In doing things in a big way. Last fall, Purvis tossed a remarkable pass, a 55-yard heave to Paul Moss against Chicago. Last spring, he broke the Big Ten javelin throw record and won the national collegiate Javelin throwing championship. Against Ohio U. last Saturday, performing the role of a punter. Purvis got off one boot that traveled sixty-three yards from the line of scrimmage, which is quite a boot in any league. Paul Pardonner, Purdue’s chunky drop-kicking quarter back, fattened his average against Ohio U. Paul made good on his only attempt for a point after touch down against the Bobcats last Saturday to run his string to twenty-two successful points after touchdown via the drop kick route out of twenty-four attempts. ass 000 SHORTLY before the 1933 American League season closed Eddie Collins. Boston Red Sox business manager and adviser to Owner Yawkey, paid tribute to Marty McManus, playing manager, for the enthusiasm he j instilled into the players at Fenway park. Moreover, Collins spoke of McManus’ “ceaseless” efforts and mentioned this as one reason the Beantown fans supported the team. A few days later Collins released Marty. What kind of monkey business is that? 000 000 Charlie Stoneham, owner of the New York Giants, was worked up to a high pitch when his club clinched the world series. He was so excited he became dizzy, and when he was hustled up to say a few words over the air he tipped his hat to the microphone when introduced to the listeners.

’Powerful Evansville Eleven Tests Butler Bob Suhrheinreich, Sensational Full Back, to Lead Aces Against Improved Bulldogs at Fairview Bowl Tonight; Sutphin, Simpson Get Starting Berths. Coach Fritz Mackey’s persistent stress on defense will be put to a stiff test tonight when his Butler Bulldog gridmen stack up against the Purple Aces from Evansville at 8:15. Mackey has hammered all week on the defensive side of the team, and scrimmage has been a daily dish on the practice diet. Last night’s drill, however, was given over to running signals and polishing up the new offensive formations learned earlier in the week. Sutphin replaced Eynotten at the right wing position, and Ralph Simpson, hard-working little half-back may start the game in place of Weger at the right back field station.
Irish Coach Club Speaker Coach Hunk Anderson of the Notre Dame football team will speak at the Little Flower Men’s Club meeting tonight at 8 o'clock. The meeting will be open to members and their friends. The entertainment committee, consisting of Leo Ostheimer, John Gorman, William Flick, John Noonan, Joe Ryce and Frank McCarthy, will be in charge. The meeting will be held in Little Flower auditorium, Fourteenth street and Bosart avenue. The Notre Dame grid squad was in Indianapolis a short time today. Light practice was to be held in Martinsville this afternoon. The Irish warriors will play Indiana at Bloomington tomorrow.
Wabash Out to Repeat Win Over Rose in Grid Opener
By Times Special CPAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 13.—Lively action is expected here tomorrow when Wabash opens its home season with high hopes of repeating last year’s 13 to 6 triumph over Rose Poly. Both teams will be handicapped by injuries. Jim Campbell, Rose half back, Is on national guard duty and will not play. Jack Newsome, tackle, has a kidney injury and will not perform for the Engineers, Red Richardson, Harry Richardson, Hufford and Caulsy will form the Rose starting back field, which is small but speedy. Wabash also is bothered by injuries. Red Varner, stellar half back;
• Down The Alleys • WITH LEFTY LEE
The tonic of conversation on local alleys is the coming alley owners’ 1.000 scratch team sweepstakes that will reward the winners with almost $3,000 in prize money. The award of the full 100 per cent handicap has the well-known speed boys wondering if perhaps t.he low average bowler won't have an eaual chance to cash. The answer to that is. yes. for the first time in the history of the game locally the poor and average bowler will be on an eaual footing with the stars of the game, and these same stars would show poor sportsmanship if they failed to enter, after all the donations contributed bv the little fellow for years. Past tournaments have proven that the two-thirds handicap allowance, was Just what it read, and the low average bowler really entered all contests under a handicap of onc-third. instead of being on an eaual footing. The “new deal meet" promises to eliminate this and a record entry should be the result. Posters for a “new' deal meet” of the Central States Bowling Association to be held in Detroit, were received in Indianapolis yesterday. This tourney will have to be far different from past meets, if thw wish to interest the local followers of the game. The Manilla Case team of the Universal League rolled a total of 2.988 with a single game count of 1.038 to take three games from Cam Lunch. Polk Milk and Gem Coal also won three from Barkeepers Friend and Blue Point Service, as Raab Brothers and Bittrich Meats won two from Held Floral and Berkies Lunch. Jerrv Prochaska was the leader of a flock of 600 shooters, his total being 659. Roth had 637; Barrett. 637: Pohl. 603: Campbell. 627; Bradlev. 619; Bisesi. 612; Woodard. 605. and Runyon. 600.

Th Indianapolis Commercial Printing and Thomas Restaurant won three games from Pivot City Ink and Kautskv A. C., C. E. Pauley and Rolles Printing lost two to the Star and Bingham Rollers. The members of the American Central Life loop also found the pocket and a new season's record for this loop was posted bv K. Koelling who tossed in games of 257 and 245 after a 199 start, for a three-game mark of 701. F. Moris rolled 655. Wilmoth 643. and Kaarman. 607. Carl Sturm and Thompson fought it out to the final frame, in their battle for top honors in the Bankers League, the former closing with a 248 to total 648 and nose out his rival by si xpins. Thompson’s final game was 238. Hewes "got hot" his second game and waded into the pocket for a 256 count, that gave him the league leading total of 595 during the Parkway plav on these alleys. Team results showed a triple win for Sterling Printing and Peiper Grocery over Central Buick and Worrell Cleaners, and an odd game win for Beech and Arthur. Acme-Monon Coal. Garrick Theater and Roberts Milk over National Farm Bureau. Hoosier Pete. Schwenger Case and Dr. Chambers Dentists.

Comparative scores show that Evansville aggregation to be a point higher in the scale than the local team, but the hopes of the Mackeymen are high and the spirit at the Fairview school has shown a marked improvement during the past week. Bob Suhrheinreich, the sensational full back who has scored all four of Evansville’s touchdowns in two games this season, will provide the chief test for the Bulldogs tonight. He is fast and powerful. Graham, left half back, McCutchan and Hostetter, brilliant ends, and a powerful line boost Evansville hopes. Cecil Ray again will lead the Bulldog offense. Koss, guard, is the only regular out with injuries, and his place will be taken by Batts. Probable line-ups are as folows: . BUTLER EVANSVILLE. Laymon L. E McCutchan Brown L. T Banke Bunnell L.

Stierwalt, former Shortridge (Indianapolis) player, and Wheaton, a converted end, probably will share the pivot duties. Snyder, Gerow, Varner and Luzar probably will start for Wabash in the backfield, although Long may be used either at quarter or half back.

Brilliant Big Ten Program to Attract 150,000 Fans Saturday
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 13.—New interest in football was awakened today along the Big Ten sector with crowds totaling more than 150.000 expected to see tomorrow's seven skirmishes, involving some of the hottest mid-October competition in years. Almost 100,000 persons will be drawn to four stadiums to see Big Ten teams in action in intersectional battles against elevens from the east, south, far west and Missouri valley. The two Big Ten games—Purdue vs. Minnesota at Minneapolis and Wisconsin vs. Illinois at Champaign —are expected to attract 20,000 each. The old intra-state rivalry between Notre Dame and Indiana at Bloomington is likely to pack in 22.000. customers. The mid-west and the nation's most important inter-sectional contest involves Stanford and Northwestern —both exponents of Pop Warner’s double wing back formation—at Soldier Field, Chicago. This game, with good weather, will draw more than 40,000. The east’s representative In the

; day’s inter-sectional rivalry is Cornell, which battles Michigan, Big Ten champion, at Ann Arbor. Coach Harry Kipke’s massive Wolverines are expected to steam-roll Gil Dobie’s boys before an attendance of 30.000. The south sends up Vanderbilt, long a nemesis of Big Ten teams, to meet Ohio State at Columbus, before approximately 25,000. Two years ago, Vanderbilt made four touchdowns in the first half to beat Ohio, 26 to 21, and the Buckeyes will be I out to avenge that defeat.

Last week Illinois defeated Washington U., 21 to 6, but the game should prove a test for Coach Clark Shaughnessy’s young Maroons.

Zuppke has craftily kept the Illini | under wraps in beating Drake and Washington U. “Illinois is ready to challenge the I field again," says Zuppke. “I expect great things from this team of mine some time this season and they may be ready Saturday for Wisconsin.’' Although tied by Indiana. 6 to 6, | last week, Minnesota has the power and strength to give Purdue, Big Ten favorite, a real battle. Pug Lund, Gopher, half back, is one of j the outstanding offensive players in the west, and Purdue must stop him to win. Gamblers will lay even money that Notre Dame doesn’t beat Indiana by more than nine points, and this seems a smart bet, in view of the failure of the Irish to get their offensive clicking early. Unless Notre Dame gets much better field generalship than the Irish did in their 0 to 6 tie with Kansas, they'll be fortunate to win. Indiana has a 200-pound line and a pair of real ends in Lyons and Antonini and a great defensive full back in sophomore Vernon Huffman.
