The machine consists of two perpendicular arms attached to a horizontal crossbar under which the linemen charge . . . As they do they hit the vertical arm which, through an intricate series of springs, levers and hidden wires, rings one of many bells, tuned to gong out the pitch of the speed.

Tech Triumphs Over Manual, 13 to 6; Shortridge Bows to Jeff Broncos
First Half Touchdowns Give
Big Green Margin Over Redskin Eleven.
By LEO DAUGHERTY
There are setups and upsets in football, in both the coliegiate and prep school sphere, and followers of the latter here today had the wellknown bafiles over that upset which came to what appeared to be the town’s best schoolboy eleven. Yep! Shortridge took one—on the chin! And who handed it to them but Jefferson of Lafayette! It was 7 to 0 last night at Jeff by a team which came here and could beat a Tech team which has been more chilly than hot by only 6 to 0. But that defeat of Shortridge must have made Tech feel extra good because the Green Wave went out to Delavan Smith Field yesterday and outpowered the Manual Redskins, 13 to 6. Washington’s Continentals went out to Southport last night and literally fumbled themselves into a 13-to-7 disaster when they otherwise looked like they were more than equal to the occasion. Broad Ripple’s Rockets -answered when opportunity knocked and bagged themselves a 13-to-6 verdict over the Rushville Lions. Park ran its victory string to three at the expense of Morton Memorial of Knightstown, 34 to 7. Under Stout Field's lanterns, the Ben Pavis Giants out-touchdowned the Indiana Boys’ School of Plainfield, 14 to 6. There was almost everything but cricket out at Delavan Smith Field when the Green cripples—as Coach Robert Ball had labelled them— cast aside crutches and braces like the faithful at a shrine. There wasn’t only a bitter gridiron scrap, but a mile relay which the Tech thinlies also won, and somewhat of a band contest. Referee Mike Layden, the old Notre Dame race horse, almost wore out a whistle tooting the footballers into the right of way for the start of the second half. At any rate, in the first quarter, the Redskins got a tough break when Dewey Donovan’s boot went high and sailed out of bounds on his own 28. Samuelson Scores Charley Howard pegged the pigskin into Dick Samuelson’s arms on the next play and he skirted around end for a six-point voucher. Marshall Campbell erred in his placement kick for the single counter. Power alone brought the Ball boys their second counter early in the next quarter. Warren Huffman and Jimmy Weschler led the push as the Green drove down the field for 44 yards with the latter finally penetrating center for a touchdown and then hoofing the point. Mite Moe Nahmias, who lately had come into the Manual backfield, started wiggling and running now and Norm Williams started thrusting himself at the tackles, but the Manual threat was checked on downs inside the enemy’s 5. Manual stood its ground on its own goal line early in the third frame and after recovering Forest Risley’s fumble on the Green 35, drove for a touchdown with Williams leading the onslaught and pushing across the score. Manual threw a big scare into

First Washington Nite Tilt Henry Bogue took the Continentals out to Southport early because he said his boys had never played under the lamps this year, that he wanted them to try themselves under the white way and see if they might not need eye shades. The lights may have been their trouble for Washington might have won the ball game if it had not been for miscues just at times when they Soom destined to strike touchdown o Both were playing run of the mine football in the first quarter with neither side having any decided edge.

a whole new Washington team with the exception of Quarterback Harold Roth.
With the ball deep in Washington territory, Frank Sawyer recovered for Southport on the Washington 12 on a bad pass from center which the Washington backs couldn’t get to. Jimmy Williams and Schienbein in two plays worked the ball to the Washington 5 as the quarter ended. Washington’s first team came back in, but on the first play of the second quarter Williams went over. He took Schienbein’s pass for the point.
Use New Pass Play
It was tough for the Continentals that the half had to end as they advanced the ball to the Cardinals’ 10 via the sky—George Smallman to Negley and to Boris Dimancheff and Bill Howard. Washington was using a peculiar passing formation. Only the passer went back. The three other backs roamed out to the left end to receive, the ends played wide and only five linemen were left to defend him. Early in the second half, after Washington had roamed to Southport's 45, the latter intercepted Smallman’s long pass on the Cardinals’ 25. Smallman evened that score by recovering a Southport fumble right down there, but on the next play he muffed the ball and Bill Shimer recovered for the winners and raced 54 yards to the Washington 19. On the next play, he rocking-chaired his way through for six points, but missed the kick for one. Howard, Dimancheff and Roth brought the oval to Southport’s eight as the third quarter ended and then continued the drive with Roth scoring and Howard pointing on a double reverse.
Passes Advance Ball
In the fourth quarter, a thrilling Washington overhead with Zupanzic doing most of the pitching advanced the ball to Southport’s 20, but then he fumbled and Southport recovered to stave off what appeared to be a certain scoring march. Ed Diederich out at Broad Ripple is getting to be pretty well satisfied since his Rockets lost their first one to Shortridge. victory over Rushville was his charges’ fourth in a row. Fred Miller's block of a Rushville
way for the Ripple’s first marker in the initial quarter. Ed Cornelius circled end for 12, Gene De Prez
nelius rammed the ball over, Vance Wilkinson adding the point from placement. De Prez’ 20-yard fling to Ray
latter brought another score in the second period. Cornelius’ plunge for the point failed.
Sharpe leading the way, the Lions marched in the third quarter, 70 yards to a touchdown, the latter getting it.
Park Has Something
Some of these days when the boys reckon the power of high school teams hereabouts, one of them is going to ask: “And how about Park ‘School ?” , .Park has something to romp to three consecutive victories. Halfback Marion Carter bagged himself his sixth touchdown when he galloped 70 yards yesterday. While Quarterback Bud Harrell converted successfully after three touchdowns, he increased his total of one-pointers to eight, far ahead of anyone else in the town. He also scored a touchdown. Bud Pack aided Carter in setting the pace for victory over the Knightstowners. He scored two touchdowns.

Blue Devils Lose First Tilt of Season, 7 to O, Lafayette Contest.
Times Special LAFAYETTE, Oct. 15.—Jefferson High School's Broncos played
the previously unbeaten Blue Devils of Indianapolis Shortridge, 7 to 0, under the arc light here last night. Scoring the winning marker in the last quarter, Coach Abe Masters’ proteges thwarted three Shortridge scoring threats. Kenney Smock and Nelson Johnson, Shortridge stars, toted the ball to the Broncos’ 24-yard line in the first quarter before Jeff stiffened and halted the advance. A fumble and an offside penalty spoiled the Blue Devils’ second chance to score in the second period after they had reached Jeff's 17. The winners earned the decision in the last quarter when Floyd Lancaster escaped on a long run and then threw a pass to DeVault, placing the ball in scoring position for Dick Wellington. Smock paced 50 yards for Shortridge in the last period, but a desperate Blue Devil aerial attack fell short.

Mike Goes West to Sell Fight Unwanted in East
Henry Pens Gentle Warning to San Francisco as Jacobs
Heavyweight Duel.
M’LEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Oct. 15—This city, which O. Henry called Bagdad on the Subway, is such a large place, with so many daily happenings, that one is taxed to keep up with all that goes on. For instance, I didn’t learn until today that Michael Strauss Jacobs of the boxing set had departed for California and a visit to the smarte
Whalen?” I asked Mushky. “Do you mean to tell me that there are persons brash enough to challenge the Trylon and the Perisphere?” “Huh?” Mushky said, in his pure Castilian Bronx. : His One Purpose T repeated and being a man who will take only two “huhs” from a Mushky, I hung up and started figuring out Jacobs’ trip for myself. Mike went out there for only one purpose. He went out there to sell San Francisco a heavyweight duel between Joe Louis, champion, and Max Baer, former champion, former butcher boy and former piayboy. I don’t want to delve so deeply into Mike’s mind that I spoil my new herringbone suit by tangling with his cerebellum, but Mike wouldn't be trying to sell that fight to Frisco if he didn’t have a sneaking suspicion that it wouldn't ge over in New York. You may not like New York any better than I do, but there is no getting around the fact that it is a city which contains a whole lot of people with a whole lot of money, most of whom are eager and anxious to part with some of it to see a sports event. If Mike could sell that fight here, he wouldn’t have gone west even to save his lungs. So, you people out in San Francisco, don’t let him fool you too much. He is the smartest, cutest, know-all-ingest gentleman New York has seen since Peter Stuyvesant traded a broken arm southpaw and a string of phony pearls to Chief Squat-Down for the hatcheck concession at El Morroco,

But I want to tell you this, if you wind up with Him, you'll wind up with all the boxing there is in the United States. Back of his vest, hidden beneath his two-flights-up teeth, is the power to jerk the strings on every fighter that crawls, from flyweight to what the dear and respected old Mr. Muldoon used to

As I get it, which means it comes to me from little birds second Hans: if Louis and Baer do not fight, the San Prancisco World's Fair will be brightened by an encounter between Louis and the winner of a fight between Tommy Farr and Lou Nova. If I lived in San Francisco, I wouldn't count too much on this one. As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t
*lcount too much on it if I lived in
Denver, because neither of the gentlemen named belongs in the same ring with Louis. Bad as he is, Max Baer is the only biped walking the earth today who, given the propep conditions could beat Joe Louis, California, here we do not come, Shier ti,
