BUTLER READY FOR HOME-COMING CLASH WITH W. & J.

————————

Locals Expect Close Contest With Visitors

Presidents Once Among Mighty of Gridiron: Pete Henry on Staff.

Butler University celebrates its 1937 home-coming Saturday by en- | tertaining Washington and JefTer- | son College, of Washington, Pa., in | an intersectional football clash at | Butler Bowl. The game, scheduled | te start at 2 p. m. will mark the | first meeting between the schools. For the Pennsylvanians, it will be | their fourth game of the season. | With Head Coach George W. Roark at the helm as the new mentor, the | Presidents dropped their opener, 7 | to 6, to Muskingum. They followed with a 9-to-0 win over Bethany and Dickinson held them to a 7-to-7 tie last Saturday. Coach Paul D. (Tony) Hinkle's | gridmen dropped the opener to Pur- | due University but defeated Cincin- | nati, Valparaiso and Evansville on | successive Saturdays. | With the exception of Purdue, the W. & J. squad is expected to provide | the stiffest opposition the Bulldogs have faced so far this season. On | ine basis of past performances, the Presidents are an impressive team. | During past campaigns they have | competed on better than even terms | with Pitt, Carnegie Tech, Yale, Princeton, Navy, Army, and Har- | vard. ! Probably the most successful W. | & J. football team was that of 1921. | That year the Red and Black went | through their schedule undefeated and were invited to play in the Rose Bowl. There they met and tied a stubborn University of California team | to score a upset. | Pele Henry Assistant Assisting Roark is Wilbur F. (Pete) Henry. Henry was an All- | America tackle at W. & J. and was selected on Walter Camp's all- | time All-America team. Coach Hinkle has stressed funda- | mentals in early practice sessions | this week. { The Butler aggregation is expect- | ed to be in fine shape for Saturday's contest. Captain Inman Blackaby, | fullback will be back after recov- | ering from a slight back injury. Also | ready to don uniforms are Andy | Boa, halfback, now up and around | after recuperating from a strained | muscle and Jim Hauss, 210-pound | tackle who has been out with a | sprained ankle. | Tom Harding, Negro triple threat | star who is Butler's topnotch ground | gainer, probably will see plenty of action.

Cubs Asked Lazzeri

Release, Yanks Say NEW YORK, Oct. 20 (U. P.).— | Release of Tony Lazzeri, veteran | second baseman of the New York Yankees. was made at the request of the Chicago Cubs, Ed Barrow, | Yankee secretary, said today. Bar-| row said the release was granted so that the Cubs could deal with Lazzeri without violating baseball rules | against tampering with players of other clubs. This indicated the Cubs were readv to make a place for the popular player. It was further reported the St. Louis Browns were | considering offering Lazzeri its managership

MONTREAL, ,, Oct. 20 (U. P.).— Walter (Rabbit) Maranville will pilot the Montreal Royals International League baseball club in 1938. Hector Racine, club president, has announced.
