HE Hoosier Big Three all tangle with major opponents next Saturday and the load on the grid warriors will demand top physical condition. . . . Indiana is booked at Lincoln where the Cornhuskers of Nebraska will be encountered, the same Cornhuskers who achieved the season’s first major upset by tripping the mighty Gophers of Minnesota. . . . It was a close one last year, Nebraska down. ing Bo McMillin's men, 13-9. Notre Dame’s opponent on Oct. 30 will be Minnesota at Minneapolis and the Gophers’ stadium has been sold out for the attraction. ... Both teams have been defeated but the rivalry still is there. They did not meet in 1936.

oy = u = on n URDUE will swing back into Big Ten competition against Iowa at Lafayette when Dad's Day will be celebrated on the Boilermakers’ campus. . . . Purdue outscored the Hawkeyes last fall, 13-0. . . . Minnesota and Purdue had open dates today. Butler is scheduled to invade the DePauw stronghold next week and the outcome will have an important bearing on the Indiana Intercollegiate Conference championship. ... Butler is the defending champion. . . . It will be the first clash between Bulldogs and Tigers in several years.

u " = u u »

THER Hoosier games next Saturday will bring together Franklin at Wabash, Rose Poly at Earlham, Evansville at Indiana State, Manchester at Ball State, Central Normal at Hanover, Oakland City at St. Joseph's and Luther, Ia., at Valparaiso. . . . In addition to the Purdue-Iowa battle, other Big Ten games will be supplied by Ohio State at Chicago, Michigan at Illinois, Northwestern at Wisconsin. Big games in the East will find Dartmouth at Yale, Harvard at Princeton. Navy at Pennsylvania, Columbia at Cornell, Pittsburgh and Carnegie Tech, Temple at Holy Cross. . The traditional struggle between Villanova and Detroit will be staged in the Motor City.

” » n " u =

HE South. Southwest and Pacific Coast will have heavy schedules sprinkled with star attractions and when the Oct. 30 statistics are compiled the sectional winners probably will be fairly well determined. For the 22d time since “way back when” Pennsylvania and the Naval Academy will meet on Franklin Field next Saturday. . . . Pennsy was the Navy's first major opponent in football and the first clash was won by Pennsy. 20-9 In the second half the Middies rallied and when Cadet Taylor, who had been denied the right to play football by his parents, was injected into the game, a touchdown and a field goal, both by the supposedly non-playing Taylor, were scored. = » = = 5 5 ENRY ARMSTRONG, Negro flash from California, is the favorite in the world's featherweight title bout in New York on Oct. 29. . .. Pete Sarron of Birmingham is the defending champion . . Some close boxing observers say Armstrong will have to score an earlv knockout to win. basing their opinion on the Negro's weight problem. He no longer is at his best fighting form at 126 pounds and may be too weak to annex the bout on points if compelled to go the full 15 rounds Sarron makes the official poundage without trouble, but does not measure up with Armstrong as a puncher.

‘Tommy Wilson Stars for Big | Green: McKay and Perry | For Cathedral.

Tech and Cathedral still had a | score to settle today. Yesterday

{ their football teams played to a

| scoreless tic on the East Siders’ field in the fifth renewal of a series in

{which each has won two games. The bitter defensive - battle was featured by long runs which never quite reached the goal line, by bril|liant defensive stands on the part |of both teams, and by a series of pass interceptions that kept a capacity crowd of about 4000 in a | constant state of excitement. Tommy Wilson, Tech's diminutive | quarterback, led the Green both on {attack and defense, while Bernie McKay and Bill Perry did a major part of Cathedral's ground gaining. Wilson provided the first thrill of the game in the opening period (when, on a fourth down punt formation, he picked up a bad pass from center and carried the ball | forty-two yards to the Irish 11 be-

{fore he was stopped. Here the],

| Cathedral line stiffened and the | Irish took the ball on their 20 after [an incomplete Tech pass into the {end zone. ( Late in the second quarter the | Irish started a drive which ended { when Tech took the ball on downs | on its 12-yard line. Again in the | third period the Irish marched to the 12 before their attack was halted. In the fourth period Tech threat ened twice. Fitzgerald of Cath- | edral intercepted a pass on the 5

grabbed another Tech pass and sprinted 42 yards to the Tech 38

| before he was finally cut down.

MICHIGAN NETTERS RELY ON TOWNSEND

ANN ARBOR, Mich. Oct. 23.— Basketball practices at the University of Michigan will begin next week, according to Frarklin Cappon, coach. Beginning Monday, eve-

| until the end of the football season,

[ when the hardwood court is ready. |

Cappon this year will have as a nucleus of his club Capt. John | Townsend of Indianapolis, all- | Conference center and forward | for two years and acclaimed the | greatest cager in Michigan history.

| Graduation took John Gee, 6-foot

9-inch center, but the elimination | | as well.

Perhaps this spectator psychology | | 8s you will see it rampant {rom | | Coast to Coast today is a primary | factor in the growth of the game | as a spectacle, and in the develop- | ment and sale of its myriad fascina- | tions.

of the center jump this year cushions that loss.

ers and coaches. And the goal posts

the average onlooker does know— he will set himself up as a second guesser. The nation is strewn with | Monday morning quarterbacks. The trouble—and I call it serious trouble—may be traced to the insidi‘ous spread of the canard that on | important varsity elevens true am|ateurs are as scarce as penguins in | quito, and college football is a hot- | bed of professionalism. | In the minds of thousands of on|lookers, this professional slant [brings a demand for professional

| nicety and precision. It breeds the

| ridiculous expectation of New York | Giants form from kids who just are learning the game and very likely [will not have mastered its technique leven by the time they are graduated | from college. { They Fight for Nothing | As you watch two college elevens {poke and push each other up and {down those 120 yards that lie be‘tween the end zone boundaries forget all about that professional gumbo in which so much of the spectator attitude has been mired. Yes, there are scholarships. And there are thousands of men high in their professions and industrial councils who, but for football and scholarships, would have gone from high school into the ranks of the millions submerged by financial frustration.
