By Eddie Ash DON’T SELL OLD PURDUE SHORT a m m BOILERMAKERS ARE CLICKING

'JMIE Purdue Boilermakers are doing less worrying than their followers. Naturally, they are going to miss the valuable services of Capt. Ed Skoronski, center, who was ruled ineligible the other day, but any team that bags three consecutive victories without allowing an opponent to score is not going to fold up because of the loss of one warrior. Purdue was tabbed as the “Forgotten Team” last year, losing to Pice. Notre Dame and Indiana, but Coach Noble Kizer lost no time in rebuilding, and without spreading the success of his progress in the headlines. First 1935 opponent was Northwestern, defeated, 7-0; second was Fordham, bowled over, 20-0, and third was Chicago, blanked, 19-0. That record is a convincer. The Boilermakers are on their way again. Skoronski will be replaced by George Bell, an able varsity warrior, and other grid gladiators will be developed to assist Bell. Leave it to Kizer. He is a smooth coach. A demonstration of the "comeback of Purdue’’ will be given at Lafayette Saturday when the Boilermakers tie into Carnegie Tech. It will be home-coming on the campus and the Old Gold and Black pigskin chasers are sure to be at their best. Football observers in New York and Chicago readily admit that this year's Purdue machine is geared to score ponvs as well as defend its own goal. That's fair enough in any league. o jar tt tt tt tt A VETERAN baseball fan lodges a grievance. "What's, become of the x\. stove league gossip?” He expresses the opinion that newspapers have tossed off-season baseball overboard and have gone collegiate, forgetting that many baseball fans don't relish being dropped off the limb when the league schedules end. And he winds up his phone call with, "and ail you read nowadays is college and high school football and bowling. Give the rocker chair veteran a break on professional sports. Ho usually pays the freight anyway when the newsboy comes around to collect.” It won't be long now. The Stove League will be up and at ’em shortly. The big convention of the minor leagues will be held in Dayton, 0., Nov. 20, 21 and 22 and the guess is that plenty of news will pop at the pow wow. In the meantime clubs in all leagues are scheming to buy, trade and sell to ready-up for the annual convention. a tt tt a a tt VI7ELL, as the Detroit Free Press says, it added close to 130.000 readers ▼ ▼ last summer, and the newspaper, without any reservations, according to Sporting News, attributes the increase to its enterprise in playing up Mickey the Mike’s Tigers. The Press got a break, of course, because Mickey’s Bengals got, out in front and stayed there—and then went on to win the World Series. a a a a a a The New York Yankees lost 27 games by one run during the 1035 season. Perhaps Babe Ruth wasn't overpaid after all. o a a tt tt if The Louisville Colonels are looking for anew manager. Pilot Ken Penner won’t be back. He used to pitch for Indianapolis. tt a a a a u TERRORS in composite box scores of the 1035 World Series charge Pilcher Lon Warneke of the Chicago Cubs with two earned runs. He, however, yielded only one, and allowed it when .serving as a relief hurler in ihe third game. The mistake was generally made of charging Warneke with one runner left, on base by Bill Lee in Ihe eighth inning of that contest, whojater scored, but the tally should have been chalked up against Lee and not Warneke. a tt a a a Chuck Klein and Johnny Corriden. attention! Checks to the members of the Chicago Cubs for their share of the World Series money probably will be mailed tomorrow, the office of Baseball Commissioner Kenesaw M.

Six is California's lucky number. The Golden Bears have won from Whittier, Oregon and Santa Clara by the same score, 6-0. Unbeaten Piinceton has had to come from behind in every game it's played.

John Revolta Is Winner of P. G. A. Title Ex-Caddy Beats Armour in Finals; It’s Present for His Wife. By L'viti <i Prrax OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct. 24—An erstwhile caddy from Wisconsin today presented his wife a handsome fourth wedding anniversary present —the National P. G. A. championship festooned with SIOOO in cash and the wherewith of a many-times richer harvest within the year. The donor was John Revolta, 24, who eliminated Tommy Armour of Chicago in the final match of the annual tournament, 5 and 4. Revolta's victory a few weeks ago in the Western Open apparently gave him the confidence he needed for the event. He Knew He’d Win "I knew I was going to win,” he said after the final match. “I had wired my wife I’d win thus one for her as an anniversary gift.” To the winner went SIOOO first prize money, along with the assurance of reaping some 10 times that much in side money going with the title. Revolta's match with Armour was a re-enaction of the oft-played drama of youth against age—age as counted in golfing circles. Armour has held the National Open, the British Open and the P. G. A. National titles. Armour Crowd’s Favorite Armour was the favorite of the crowd that trooped over the chilling fairways to watch the deciding match. He was considered the undordog, since Revolta had been playing better golf. Revolta took the lead on the first hole and held it through the thirtysecond, where the match ended. His score for the first nine was 33, two under par, and at the end of it he had a three-hole lead. The advantage had increased to four holes at the halfway mark. Early in the afternoon play Revolta carded two consecutive birdies and was five up. At the start of the last nine the advantage was six holes. Three holes were halved, Armour won one and then the match ended with Revolta two strokes over par for the 32 holes and Armour eight, over.

SOUTH Alabama-Georgia—A toss-up with Georgia favored slightly. Georgia Tech-North Carolina— North Carolina in a close one. Louisiana State-Vanderbilt—Lou-isiana has the necessary power.

YNDIANA UNIVERSITY'S fiveman back field formation has caused a lot of furore. It is a “misnomer” invented by Coach Bo McMillin. Bob Keck holds down one of the guard positions on the Crimson team and as such is frequently referred to as the fifth man in the back field. It all depends upon how Bob shifts, whether he is a guard or a back field worker. He is especially dangerous because he can carry the ball and kick. Saturday Indiana will try to please home-coming fans with a victory over the vaunted Ohio State eleven. The Buckeyes will invade Bloomington a top-heavy favorite, but Indiana usually does its best playing before the old grads. To make the five-man backfield a veteran affair for the Ohio State clash Coach McMillin last night assembled Vernon Huffman, Wendell Walker, Roy Eads and Corbett Davis, with Huffman calling signals and Davis at the full back position. Keck displayed form in the first out-of-doors workout of the week and indicated his injured knee has mended. The week-end celebration festivities will open with a huge campus pep session tonight.

Butler, Valparaiso to Clash With Perfect Grid Records and League Lead at Stake Bulldogs and Uhlans Both Have Clean Slates in Indiana Conference Competition; Night Tilt in Bowl Likely to Draw Best Crowd of Year. One of the topnotch collegiate grid attractions of the season Is scheduled here tomorrow night when Butler University's football team clashes with Valparaiso in the North Side bowl. It will be a night tilt with the kickoff scheduled at 8:15, and it will be the last game played under the arcs by the local eleven this fall. The game attracts unusua'l atten- i— ——

tion because neither the Bulldogs nor the Uhlans have met defeat so 1 iar this season in the Indiana In- ; tercollegiate Conference race. In j fact, neither has been defeated. Valparaiso was tied by an out-of-state eleven, St. Viator's of Illinois, the count being 7-7, but in games with Indiana foes the Uhlans defeated St. Joseph's, 26-0. and Ball State, 20-6. Last Saturday they downed Defiance, 14-7. Locals Total 145 Toints The Bulldog machine, under the coaching of Tony Hinkle and Wally Middlesworth, has revealed strong I power this fall with topheavy vic- | tories over Evansville, Hanover and Indiana State Teachers, their three Hoosier foes. The Bulldogs also took Louisville into camp, 29-0, to give them a total of 145 points in four games to 14 for the opposition. Asa side attraction in the tilt Inman Blackby, Butler sophomore ball-toting star, will have his leadership of the state league in high scoring at stake, as his closest competitor for the honors, Willie Karr, Ls a member of the Valparaiso eleven. The Butler mentors have been working on a versatile attack for this game, undecided as to just which might get the best results against the upstaters. Coach Jake Christiansen always presents a stiff defense, but injuries have forced him to shift his lineup before every game. Group of Stars Besides Blackabv the locals have other topnotch offensive men in Andy Boa, another sophomore find; Jim Wulle, former Cathedral star; Waldo Stout of Sheridan, Emerson Musgraves and others. Generally speaking the Bulldogs appear to have one of the strongest teams that has represented the local school in years, the forward wall, too, being made up of veterans with strong sophomore replacements. The Blue coaches felt they discovered more power last night at practice when Dick Curtis, 178pound varsity guard, came through as a place-kicker. The game tomorrow will be designated as “High School Night,” with students from Manual, Shortridge, Tech, Washington. Cathedral and Broad Ripple admitted free. The fine records of the two teams, ! together with the interest being shown locally, indicates the larg-1 est crowd of the season will take in the struggle.

Defiance to,Play at Central Normal Purple Warriors Await the Buckeye Invasion. Tim ft Bprrinl DANVILLE. Ind.. Oct. 24.—Coach Sewell Leitzman prepared his Purple Warriors of Central Normal College for rugged opposition here Saturday when Defiance (OJ College invades Danville for the second game of a locals' home season. Injuries to Roudobush, end, and Franlkin, center, received in last week's victory over St. Joe College, may keep them out of the game this week against the Buckeye team. Pike probably will be at the pivot position with Lynch at the wing berth. Because of a 32-6 win over Earlham, a team that held Central Normal to a 6-6 tie, the invaders hold a “dope” edge in the game.
