with John W. Thompson Things Are Taken Seriously at Earlham Where They've
Played Football Since 1889 and They Still Hope for Franklin, De Pauw Scalps.
RICHMOND, Ind., Oct. 14.—The year 1929 has become indelibly impressed upon the minds of most people because it. was the year of the crash. But some folks down here remember it because it was the last time Earlham beat
Franklin in football.
After a 19-10-12 defeat in But when J. Owen Huntsman, former
Jin from its schedule.
1932 Earlham dropped Frank-
star halfback at Earlham, returned last year to become athletic director, he saw to it that the old rivals were put back - on the card. The game is to be at Earlham’s home-coming,
Saturday, Oct. 24.
The Quakers always have a big time the night before home-coming. There is a bonfire and pep session that lasts into the wee hours and it’s all climaxed by the annual freshman pajama parade which leads the rest of the student body
into Richmond.
But Earlham is used to customs like that.

Football started at Earlham in 1889. The first team was coached by Augustus T. Murray. Mr. Murray, during the administration of Herbert Hoover, was asked to take over the pastorate of the new Friends Church in Washington, D. C. The first game Earlham played was against Miami University at Oxford, O. The score was 8 to 0 against Earlham. On the Earlham campus no one is more revered or more respected than “Prof. Ed,” or Prof. Edwin P. Trueblood, who is head of the department of speech and chairman of the faculty committee on athletics, besides being known as the
“father of Earlham athletics.” first Earlham football team. n ” »
Mr. Trueblood played on that

IN 1890 the first intersectional football game to be played west of the Alleghenies was played at Springfield, O., between Earlham and Wittenberg College. But Earlham’s biggest rivalry is with De Pauw, whose grid teams the Quakers have not defeated since 1911, when Earlham set De Pauw back, 10 to 0. : Since that time Earlham has scored but 60 points against De Pauw’s 387 in the 17 games between the two. Against Franklin, Earlham has scored 189 points as com- - pared with the Grizzlies’ 293 in 21 games. Bossing the Earlham gridders again this year is M. O. Ross, who is in his twelfth year as coach. Everybody around
school calls him “M. 0.”
During his college years he played
tackle at Kentucky Wesleyan in Winchester, Ky. He came “here in 1924 and was assistant coach until 1925 when he was “appointed director of men’s physical education, succeeding Norman G. Wann, who went to Ball State Teachers College.

ACTION
Week's Games: Important in Title Chase
Tech, Manual, Washington and Shortridge Play Feature Tilts.
CITY PREP SCHEDULE
Friday
Rushville at Broad Ripple. Technical at Manual. - Washington at Southport (night). Elwood at Cathedral. is Shortridge at Jefferson of Lafayette (night). / Saturday Knightstown at Park School.
Three highly significant football games are listed on the schedule for
the gridiron campaign nears the halfway’ mark. Technical is carded against Manual, Washington journeys to Southport and Shortridge plays at Jefferson of Lafayette in the feature tilts. The intra-city rivairy involved in the Technical-Manual 'enagement holds the element of importance for that contest. It will be the first rasté* of city competition for the Big Green eleven of Coach Ball, whereas took a lacing from the Blue Devils of Shortridge last week and thereby revealed their potentialities in the scrap for the city title. : Ganfe Is Yardstick
Significance of the WashingtonSouthport fray lies in the fact that the game is expected to reveal just how “tough” the West Side eleven can really get. The Cardinals, rated as one of the state's leading prep teams, are unbeaten this season and should prove to be a real yardstick for Coath Henry Bogue's Continentals. The Washington squad drubbed Bloomington and Shelbyville in cpening tilts but few eyebrows were raised. Then came. last week's debacle in which the Continnentals virtually slaughtered a strong Cathedral team and rival coaches began to take a few hitches in their belts. Yes, the interest in the Washington-Southport contest is likely to spread beyond the confines of the two schools. The third feature of the chart-- { -»rtridge against Jeff of Lafayette —is important because of the comparative facts it may reveal. Technical opened its season against Jeff and gained a 6-to-6 tie with Abie Master's seasoned outfit. Shortridge’s efforts against the up-staters may be a tip-off on what to expect in the Blue Devils’ tilt with Technical on Nov. 13—a long way off to bz sure, but none-the-less an important landmark in the battle for the city grid toga.
Irish Play Elwood
Cathedral's game with Elwood here will give Coach Joe Dienhart’s Irish team a breathing spell before tackling Tech on the following week-end. : Broad Ripple will entertain Rushville in the only other tilt booked for Friday and Coach Lou Reichel’s Park School eleven plays host to the Knightstown Soldiers and Sailors Home team on Saturday. Football is in its infancy at the HKinightstown | school, having been introduced only this year. In addition the team got started late in the season. Reports from Knightstown indicate, however, that the eleven will prove a worthy foe for the Park squad. :

By United Press CHICAGO, II, Oct. 14.—Leo (Gabby) "Hartnett, Chicago Cubs’ catcher, doesn't want to go to Brooklyn even if he is invited to manage the Dodger’s team he said today. Hartnett reportedly had been considered a possible successor to Casey Stengel. He was to be traded for Pitcher Van Mungo, reports said. However, he went to owner P. K.

‘age Brooklyn, either. :
Wrigley, pointing out that the Cubs’ need for a pitcher was lessened by recent acquisition of LeRoy Parmalee from St. Louis, said
the Cubs valued Hartnett as a catcher and would keep him if he
wanted to stay. 7

Kizer Rounds Out Defense
Times Special / LAFAYETTE, Ind. Oct. 14— Coach Noble Kizer drilled the Purdue Boilermakers today to perfect timing and round out the defense
in preparation for the game with
Chicago University's Maroons at Stagg Field Saturday. Kizer appeared satisfied with the Purdue attack which has sparkled brilliantly in games against Ohio University and Wisconsin but was worried over the team’s defensive strength. ® The varsity experienced considerable difficulty yesterday in turning back the attack of a sturdy freshman team carefully drilled on the type of plays the Maroons are expected to use against the Boilermakers. Saturday’s conflict will bring to an end the current series of Purdue-
Chicago games which has extended |
39 years without a break.
