By Eddie Ash Many Thrills Seen at Secondary Games • mm Butler and De Pauw Tilts Recommended

jP VERY fall season the football fans as a whole usually overlook a lot of interesting and hard-fought games by passing up some of the scintillating battles between the secondary schools of the Hoosier state. It frequently happens that from the standpoint of entertainment a so-called secondary tilt produces thrills that are not matched by the high-geared elevens. Coming to Butler bowl Friday night is Indiana State of Terre liaute, starring one of the most glamourous grid gallopers in Indiana, one Charlie Bush. Go out and watch him swerve over the greensward. The Bulldogs may stop him, but it will be a scrap. He is a “one man thundering herd,” a threat at all times. a a a a a a A T Greencastle Saturday, at the De Pauw home-coming, the Panthers from the Hanover hills will be the visiting attraction, meeting the Tigers of Old De Pauv, unriefia'ed. untied and unscored against in ten games, including of course, the 1933 season. Hanover has defeated Wabash this year and the Panthers have worked up a brand new and fresh appetite craving Tiger meat. On the other hand, De Pauw is sure to extend itself in an effort to keep its victory march going. It s an almost guaranteed treat. Anyway, the conic t :s recommended for seekers of genuine action every second of the tussle , a a a a a a r V ''HE Picker Pete football selections blank, for the Oct. 20 A gam* is being carried a second time today to give the “wide world" \ an op;)ortunifv to fill in the cozy little brackets with the scores of twenty i of this Saturday s big college games .Some amateur grid experts reported that the brackets on the score blank appearing in the early editions of The Times yesterday were 100 thin, so new brackets of increased width •were substituted.

Another Negro football phenom has come on to remind former Hawkeye supporters of the famed Slater, one of the greatest grid players of all time. Oze Simmons is the new phe- I nom’s name and he hails from Ft. Worth, Tex. He is playing his first | year in the back field for lowa. Simmons is 20 years olei. stands 5 feet if inches and weighs about ! 170. The sophomore sensation helped defeat South Dakota and Wis- j consin and was a terror to Nebraska in the game that the Cornhuskers j won from lowa last week. 14 to 13. Here’s wnat the twisting, whirling, ! charging Oze Simmons has done in his first three games on the lowa varsity: A . craped six yards a trial from scrimmage in his intercollegiate debut against South Dakota, returning one punt sixty-one yards, and another thirty-two, and scoring after a side-stepping, catfooted dash of twentytwo yards. Raced forty-seven yards through the Northwestern Wildcats for a touchdown and averaged nearly six yards a try against some of the best tacklers in the Big Ten to give lowa a 20-7 victory. Nebraska boasted it had him stopped last Saturday—but he tore off runs of from ten to twenty-five yards, and punted and passed with the skill of a seasoned third-year man. a a a a a a SPEAKING of the “human element” in connection with college football, Harry Mehre, head coach. University ol Georgia, gives an intering slant usually overlooked by the aveiage giid follower. He says: “A book could be written on how to handle football players, the psychology ; of youth the foibles df their nature and all that. And even then you wouldn't have the subject covered. “The human element is one of the many things that makes football the exciting, unexpected and sensational pastime it is. If it were played by automatons, a dull and routine sport would result. But as long as the eleven players are mere youths—college youths—you can expect mistakes. superlative playing, psychological angles, sensational stunts and the devil knows onlv what in the game.” a a a a a a PRINCETON'S all-powerful eleven is handicapped by a weak schedule. Here is a team that fairly screams in all-around class and yet the Tiger gridders are unlikely to be tested until in November when Harvard is met on the third. It is said Princeton will be first choice for the trip to the Rose Bowl, if the team goes through undefeated. However, most football fans knew last year that Princeton was going to be tough this fall, and why the schedule makers over there failed to build a more attractive schedule is a mystery. Amherst was met in the 1934 lid-lifter and was crushed to earth, 75 to 0. and Williams was drubbed last Saturday. 35 to 6. Remaining Tiger games are with Washington and Lee. Cornell. Harvard. Lehigh. Yale and Dartmouth. It may take the very last game, the one with Dartmouth, to put the Princeton men under tepnotch pressure. The Tigers were Undefeated last year, cowling over Amherst, Williams. Columbia, Washington and Lee. Brown. Dartmouth. Navy, Rutgers and Yale. Only eight points were tallied against the men of Old Nassau. Rutgers getting six and Yale two. Princeton scored 217 points. a a a a a a BILL BRADY, manager of Jim Jeffries and Jim Corbett during their reigns as champion, witnessed the recent Art Lasky-Steve Hamas heavyweight fistic fight, and now bobs up with the information that: “Not once during the ten rounds was the third man in the ring called on to separate the contestants. Whenever either of the two was stung, in- ! stead’of going into a clinch, he fought his opponent off. That is the reason why. for me. it was the best fight since the Jeffries-Sharkey ' contest.”

His article in a recent issue of the Trojan Alumni Review was misinterpreted. Wesson said, in commenting on an editorial in the Daily Californian. U. of C. campus newspaper, and on other stories. "In my article, written more than a month ago. I merely pointed out California at Berkeley's intensive rushing campaign which that mstitu’ion certainly has made no attempt to keep secret." Wesson said. "It is regrettable that by pointing to this campaign I have been misinterpreted as having accused California at Berkeley of having inaugurated an 'athlete snatch racket.’ For it U. S C. or any other conference institution wishes to make such accusations they will do so through the proper channels of their conference representatives.’’ Wesson deplored the fact that the article, written before the football eason started, was being interpreted as an alibi for the Trojans’ two successive defeats.

TIGER GRID RECORD TO GET HANOVER TEST

De Pauw Tearn Has Panthers | for Opponent Greencastle Crew Holds 10 Straight Shut-Out Victories. By Time* Special GREENCASTLE. Ind„ Oct. 17 De Pauw university’s marathon grid i shutout streak, which now stands | at ten straight games, is expected to get a severe test when the Tigers i play Hanover here Saturday before a home-coming crowd. I The Tigers had a hard time sub- ! duing Hafiover’s Panthers 12-0 last j year, being played to a standstill in ! the first half. All but three of De \ Fauw’s players in that game have graduated. Hanover has lost only two. Kickoff will be at 2 p. m Hanover, which with Wabash is considered De Pauw’s hardest grid competition, already has trimmed Wabash 6-0 this season. De Pauw has had little margin to spare in its last two games, nosing out Evansville 7-0 and defeating Ball State last week, 13-0. Hanover Noted for Upsets Coach John Van Liew's Panthers lost to Miami last Saturday after downing Earlham the preceding week, 27-0. The downstaters are rangy, heavy and experienced and in the last two years have handed ; out more than one surprise. The De Pauw-Hanover tilt undoubtedly will top Saturday’s Indiana secondary college action. De Pauw has not been beaten, tied or scored on in a ten-game streak which started with the opening of the 1933 season. A crowd of about 5,000 De Pauw alumni and visitors, as well as Hanover fans are expected | to witness the action. Most of this week's time in the Tiger camp has been spent in polishing offensive plays. Only minor injuries were reported to coach Gaumy Neal ;Vter the Ball State game. But coaAh Neal is not optimistic over this week’s encounter, despite the fact his full squad probably will be in harness. Tiger Backs All Stars Hickman, who played an outstanding game last week at end. is expected to get the call with Kay for the De Pauw wing positions. Sandberg and Noel are considered likely choices for tackle, with Schroeder and Horst at guard. Kopta was injured in the Ball State game, but is expected to be back at his regular berth at center. The dashing back field of Fribley, Bishop, Bollinger and Pierce probably will start. Fribley showed drive and power last Saturday. Hanover’s lineup includes Hay, quarter back, who scored three touchdowns against Earlham; Arnold, full back; Young and Pease, half backs; Gunther, center; Meese and Schuler, ends; Slick and Denton, tackles, and Stein and Mann, guards.

Foxx to Recover, Earl Mack Claims Scoffs at Story Slugger’s Career Is Ended. By 7 imes Special PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 17.—Jimmy Foxx. star bat swinger of the Philadelphia Athletics, is all right and will be playing regularly in a few days. Earl Mack, business manager of the touring American League allstar squad, insisted last night. “It's all bunk!” was Mack's answer to the report that a head injury Foxx received in Winnipeg last week had put an end to the clouter's baseball career. Foxx himself claims that all he needs is further rest. Jimmy has not attempted to play since he rejoined the team on the coast, complaining of drowsy spells in which he “wants to go to sleep all the time.” The all-star team sails from Seattle Saturday.

Texas Pilot Joins Chisox Coach Staff Bu T l mc/t Special CHICAGO, Oct. 17.—Billie Webb of Chicago, who piloted the Galveston club of the Texas League to the loop pennant this season, has been acquired by the Chicago White Sox to act as a coach, it was t.’inounced today. Jimmy Austin, veteran coach will be retained. I. U. LOSES TACKLE: SCHILAWSKI AT HOME /?'< I ml• <I Pr< . BLOOMINGTON. Oct. 17.—Faced with the possibility that at least two of his players may be out of the Chicago game Saturday, coach McMillen today groomed his Indiana squad against the Maroon's passing attack. Ralph Schilawski, regular end. was called to Green Bay, Wis., last night by the death of his mother, but may rejoin the I. U. squad at Chicago Saturday. McDaniels, relief tackle, is lost to the squad with an attack of tonsilitis. COAST NETMEN TRIP PERRY AND HUGHES B’j l inii'f Sperxal LOS ANGELES. Cal., Oc. 17Gene Mako and Lester Stoefen, rising young coast net stars, completed the rout of Fred Perry, number one courtman of the world, in an exhibition doubles victory over Perry and Pat Hughes, an Englishman, here yesterday. The scores were 7-5, 6-3. Monday Mako adled a big feather to his cap when he trounced Perry in a singles fray; 6-0, 6-2.

Fightin’ Faces! These Lads Battle for the Blue

, Wi

ONE of the headline attractions for the visiting teachers, coaches and others during the state convention here this week will be the Shortridge-Newcastle football team at Shortridge field tomorrow afternoon at 2:30. The Blue Devil fans are all excited over the comeback performance by their gridders last week when they upset the old rival Manual team, 7-0. They are pulling for coach Bob Nipper and his boys to battle to a .500 standing this week after a slow start and loss of the first two games. The play of the tackles in the Manual rame last week, particularly by Qtto Oppenheimer, was outstanding. Besides being a bear on defense, Oppenheimer is a fine punter. Dick De Mars also is a stellar grid pastimer.

Expect 10,000 to Watch Butler Play Sycamores Bulldogs, Undefeated and Unscored On Except for Two Safeties, May Uncork Aerial Attack Friday. A crowd of nearly 10.000 persons is expected to watch Butler university’s undefeated football team attempt to outgallop Indiana State and Charlie Bush, leading state secondary scorer, in a home-coming game here Friday night.

Officials of the north side school estimated probable attendance at that figure in view of the fact that a large crowd here for the state teachers’ convention likely will attend. Butler's last two games drew a total of 9,000 persons. A large delegation of Terre Haute fans also is expected to accompany Bush and company here. The State flash may find the going difficult here, as Butler nas been making special plans for handling him. The game will be the Bulldogs’ last tilt of the season under the lights and their last game in the bowl until Nov. 10, when Manchester comes here. Butler has won three games without a defeat and is unscored on with exception of two safeties. * A passing attack is expected to be used against Indiana State by the

‘Alley Oop’ of Wrestling Is Tagged Out on Ropes _ % Big Boy Davis Loses to Sarpolis in Bruising Match at Armory; Buckeye Grappler 'Outsmarts Himself.’ BY VERN BOXELL Big Boy Davis, wrestling s Alley Oop, not only is tough, but smart. But the Columbus <OJ giant certainly outsmarted himself last night by taking himself out of the picture in the feature wrestling event at the armory.

After dividing the first two falls with Karl (Doci Sarpolis, Big Boy was counted out on the final flip while resting in a corner with one leg dangling between the ropes. At the time, the Buckeye bruiser was matching blow-for-blow with Sarpolis and naturally he raved and ranted when referee Heze Clark lifted the Sarpolis paw in victory. Crowd Is Satisfied But his wailing and gnashing of teeth availed him naught, and the near-capacity crowd which had come hoping to witness the annihilation of Davis departed in the merriest of moods. Taking a cue from that “nasty man,” Chief Chewacki, Big Boy used none tco gentle tactics on Sarpolis in the first fall. Sarpolis claimed that Davis was using some substance in his tights that temporarily blinded him. Sarpolis Cuts Loose Sarpolis’ complaint appeared to be borne out by Davis’ actions. But for all his alleged clever plotting and scheming, Davis collected only brtfises as Sarpolis lashed out with both hands and battered him out in twenty minutes to win the first fall. Sarpolis brought his favorite scissors hold into action in the second fall, but Davis rallied and started hammering away at Sarpolis’ side. He hit him w-ith everything but the front row chairs, raising big welts where the Sarpolis right kidney reposed This eventually proved too much and Sarpolis was pinned in twenty-five minutes. During this heated tussle, the rivals squared off in pugilistic fashion, with Davis proving the better slugger. Sarpolis pummeled Davis to open the final fall, and the Big Boy, seeking temporary peace and quiet, scurried from corner to comer, tarusung a leg between the ropes

Indiana State has beaten Evansville and Rose Poly and lost to Valparaiso. With a view toward bottling up the dashing tactics of Bush, who quarter backs for the Sycamores, Coach Tony Hinkle is understood to be planning on assigning two men to the little star. Special blocking plays also are being practiced. All Bulldog regulars are expected to be in namess for the encounter. Butler’s passing attack, if employed, will be carried out largely by Jim Wulle, tossing to Eddie Conner and Roscoe Batts. Bob Stewart will have charge of the plunging.

U. S. Should Compete in 1936 Olympics, Says Joe Waiter Sees German Concession to Jews as Diplomatic Move; Beauty of Games May Teach Lesson.

BY JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Sports Writer NEW YORK, Oct. 17. —The accumulated mail disgorged two letters from editors of national Jewish newspapers, requesting the views of this writer on the participation of American athletes in the 1933 Olympic games at Berlin. This correspondent’s views, to make an immediate answer, are that America should compete In the games by all means.

Before trying to justify these views, attention is called to the fact that Brigadier-General George H. Sherrill, who has been abroad investigating conditions pertaining to the situation, returned yesterday with favorable reports. At least the reports were favorable from his point of view. The gentleman, who is an old time the first to use the crouch in competition, I believe—pointed out that Nazi Germany had “very generously” invited seventeen Jewish athletes to prepare for the Olympics. This was an extremely liberal attitude, the general insinuated, when it was considered that of the 448 American competitors in the last Olympics there were only five Jews; and that of the seventy-eight British competitors there was only one Jew. And here you have the generous Hitler inviting seventeen. a tt a IF Sherrill does anything other than to encourage the participation of Americans in the Berlin meet I think he will be grossly in error; but his attempts to strengthen his position by quoting the above figures are ridiculous. The number of Jews who may represent any given nation has nothing whatever to do with the issue. This is strictly a racial issue and if the old sprinter doesn't know it, it's high time he found out. In any event, his opinions on the subject would be accepted with more seriousness by all concerned if he'd put that red herring back in the barrel. Very obviously what has happened is that Hitler has made a few temporary and unimportant concessions to save both the national face and the games. By naming seventeen Jews as potential Olympic performers, more than three times as many as represented America in 1932, he gives himself a talking point. Everybody who .has followed the actions of Hitler, Goering, Roehm and Goebbels must know precisely how the Jew stands in Germany. He just doesn't stand at all. So no matter what or how much is done to seemingly insure the Jewish athlete an equal chance socially with his German brother, the mocking truth will remain—it is merely a diplomatic convenience. As this department sees it, both Sherrill and Avery Brundage, president of the American Athletic Union, who preceded him to Berlin on a similar snooping tour, succeeded only in beclouding the picture. “My, my, this is terrible,” they screamed, as they lifted their crinolines and scurried up the gang plank. A few weeks later they came back and said it wasn’t so terrible after all. One hopes the gentlemen weren’t just going through the motions. It will have to be admitted, however, that the old brigadier-general evidenced a thoroughness and firmness characteristic of the army. He ; personally got the names of the seventeen Jews, who are to be allowed to compete for Olympic berths ■ —yes sir, all seventeen of them written right out in black and white. Hitler isn’t going to give him the works. a a a THIS will be quite a spectacle to look'forward to —the old briga-dier-general out on the Berlin field with his list of names, thumb prints and Bertiikion measurements checking up on Hitler. What greater assurance of fair play, sportsmanship and social idealism could any one ask? Just the same, one wishes Brundage and Shefhii had stayed

The Joke That Back-Fired Kingfish Levinsky, heavyweight, went out the other day and let all the air out of the tires of a friend’s car. Afterward the Kingfish was tooling his own buggy through the Chicago streets when a stench nearly ftoorcl him. Smeared on his motor was hot limburger cheese.

home in the first place. I mean what good did they do? By now the reader must be thoroughly baffled? How in the name of Goering’s red-striped pants do I reconcile these comments with the insistence that America should grace the Berlin pageant? Perhaps I don't in a way that is wholly logical or convincing, but my chief feeling is that no enduring point is to be gained by a boycott. I can’t possibly see where the refusal of America to compete would help to make a wise man of a fool or brothers of boors. On the other hand, there is at least a hopeful, far-ofT possibility that out of the beauty and fire and spirit of the great athletic carnival may emerge in the politicallydrugged German mind something approaching an image of fellowship, sanity and common decency. I confess that in the present circumstances this would amount to a phenomenon comparable to the most fantastic miracle of Mr. Homer's time, but as we say at the track, you never can tell when one of those 1.000 to 1 shots will come bouncing down in front.

Pitt Has Full Strength for Tilt With Gophers Nicksick Recovering From Minor Hurts; Coach Sutherland Trying to Build Substitute Line. By Uniti rl Press PITTSBURGH. Oct. 17.—Pitt is looking forward to having its full ' strength available for the game with Minnesota Saturday despite injuries j to Mike Nicksick and Leon Shedlosky, both half backs.

Pitt trainers are working over- ] time with Nicksick, who started and ! starred in the game with Southern California despite minor hurts. Shedlosky, second-string half back, who relieves Bob Larue, sophomore, at right half, probably will be ready for the game, it was revealed. He was held out of the Trojans game j and Heinie Weisenbaugh, alternating full back, was relief man for Larue. The Panthers are being drilled unmercifully for the invasion of the potential Big Ten champions. Coach Jock Sutherland, not altogether pleased with the performance of his line, is attempting to put together a second-string forward wall. The center of the Pitt line played most of the game against the Trojans, but Sutherland wants to give them some rest in the Minnesota game. A classy tackle, Red Daniel, sophomore. was uncovered in the Trojan game and he is expected to see much service in the line. Capable substitutes for the two ends, Rooker and Baxter, also are being looked for.

Badgers Give Purdue First Big Ten Test Game Features Boilermaker Home-Coming Program Saturday. By Time* Special LAFAYETTE. Ind . Oct. 17 \l- - the Purdue grid machine has been submerged twice this season, the Wisconsin Badgers are expected to find an aroused and aggressive Boilermaker squad when they arrive here for their Big Ten open**? Saturday, The tussle will raise the Conference curtain for both schools, and the Boiler warriors have been drilling intently in an effort to make a successful bow into the circuit. Records of Past It will be home-coming day at Purdue, and the game will feature the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the dedication of RassAid stadium. The Badgers and Boilermakers have clashed in four home-coming encounters since 1926. Purdue has snatched two contests by 7 to 6 margins, and the other two ended with the scores knotted. The Badgers last Saturday prepared for the battle with a game against South Dakota State, coached by “Red" Threlfall. former Purdue star, who uses the Boilermaker system. The formidable Wisconsin back field this year, built around Fontaine and Jankowski, showed to advantage in that tilt. Coach Noble Kizer believes the experience gained by his Lafayette charges in the Rice and Notre Dame games will help them hold their own against the sturdy Wisconsin line. Good Seats Available The tilt will share <hc Big Ten spotlight with the Indiana-Chicago clash at the Windy City Saturday. Although there has been a brisk demand for tickets to the Purdue game, C. S. Doan, ticket manager, announced today that good seats still are available, and that ducats may be purchased at game time. In addition to reserved seats, approximately 7,000 general admission tickets for seats in the north curve of the stadium, priced at sl.lO including tax, are on sale. i, Sears Betters Run Mark in /.
