FOOTBALL shorts: Scouts say that Tommy Harmon, the Hoosier from Gary, has everything it takes to become a grid whiz. . . . It’s his first varsity year at Michigan and many close observers confess they won't be surprised if the young halfback finishes with a scintillating record over the three-year span. ... Well, there's got to pe a second Red Grange some day. Governor Chandler of Kentucky once served as scout for Uncle Charlie Moran when the veteran baseball umpire was a grid coach and brought Centre College to the fore. Incidentally, Moran himself never worried about scouts because he changed his plays from Saturday to Saturday. Bob (Spanky) Haak, Indiana University’s all-America tackle candidate, became the first Indiana player to play a full game when he went 60 minutes against Nebraska last Saturday. . « Haak, who weighs 235 pounds, lost 18 pounds during the game. . . . The temperature was 87 degrees at the kickoff. :
HEN 42,850 customers showed up to watch the Detroit-Wash-ington professional football game at Briggs Stadium, Detroit, last Sunday, Detroit became the third National Football League city to establish a new attendance record this year. Previously, the Redskins and the New York Giants attracted 37,500 clients to set a new mark in Washington and the Lions and Packers drew 24,000 customers to hang up a new record in Green Bay. Center Lee Mulleneaux, released by the Chicago Cardinals, has been signed by the Green Bay Packers. . , . His younger brother, Carl, plays end for the Packers, giving Green Bay the only brother combination now active in the league. . . . They both played college football at Arizona.

EXT week-end will be the biggest of the football season for Dave Strong, Michigan halfback, for it will mean playing against the team which he once led to a win over the Wolverines he now represents. Strong, as a sophomore quarterback at Illinois in 1926, placekicked the field goal which gave the Illini a 9-8 victory over Michigan. . . . The following year he transferred to Michigan, his father’s school, and this year has been a valuable triple-threat backfield replacement.

ROM the Minneapolis Journal: “Not often has one man—and this one only half a mahi at that because he had been commanded to take no part in the rough give and take—so completely transformed a beaten team as Harold Van Every transformed the Minnesota Gophers against Michigan last Saturday. “He had been two weeks in the hospital with bruises and hemorrhages around the kidneys. He had spent three days limping and hopping along the sideline of the practice field and had lined up in ' the backfield a few minutes to throw some passes. “Not until Saturday morning had permission been given to use him, on a promise he would not be permitted to make any contacts. His poise and personality had established him as the finest leader Minnesota has had since Pug Lund, and he won that ball game.”

HE present Syracuse varsity eleven is plenty good, as the recent 19-17 victory over Cornell would indicate, but next year’s team will be twice as talented if the freshman squad of the moment is any indication. . . . The Orange cubs trimmed the Penn State frosh recently by 20-0, and the week before the Penn Staters whipped Pitt. There are four men on the Syracuse varsity squad who compose the quarter and half-mile relay teams. . . . Harold (Babe) Ruth, Phil Allen, Johnny Morrison and Marty Glickman. ...

a nine-game schedule for 1939 including five newcomers.
Home-Coming For DePauw, I. U., Purdue
Clash; Indiana Faces Wildcats; Butler in Ohio.
By LEO DAUGHERTY The measured allotments’ of 14 inches of space per person on the hard boards along the 40-yard line at either Memorial Stadium at Bloomington or Ross-Ade Stadium at West Lafayette will be among the most densely populated spots in Hoosierland tomorrow afternoon. Bring on the Kansas State Wildcats! That’s the challenge of the old grads digging out the blankets for Indiana’s homecoming rumpus. _ Bring on the Badgers! That's the yell of the alumni on the march back to Purdué for the Boilermakers’ home-coming and Big Ten struggle with Wisconsin. These, along with DePauw’s Old Gold Day and home-comer against Manchester, and the rampaging frish’s ruckus with the Carnegie Tech Skibos at South Bend top tomorrow’s. state gridiron slate. Eleven other Indiana teams, including Butler which invades the Buckeye State, will be off to the wars again. Bo McMillin made a pre-season that his Crimson would win at least this one against his former proteges. And how good a Wildcat stew would look to the alumni since the alma mater’s touchdown larder has been empty for three weeks! Mal Elward always dares 8 “We'll win.” So the ex-Purdue scholars can expect a no-punches-pulled fight, kayo, kayoved, or no decision.
Gang on Hackney
To stop One Man Gang Hackney, touted as one of the country’s hardest running fullbacks, the Indiana Pigskin Pedagogue has swung Capt. Paul Graham from fullback to quarter and blocking-back work. Vince Oliver goes to the tailback. Joe Nicholson will pass from right half and El Clasen has the kicking job at the other wing. The casualty department is working overtime to mend Ends Frank Petrick, Eddie Rucinski and John Janzaruk before the whistle. The latter vows he’ll start. Otherwise, the starting Bo-Men are all set—Archie Harris, Spanky Haak, Frank Mikan, Russell Sloss, Jim Logan, and Bill Stevens. The Wildcats (no relation to Northwestern's) reached Bloomington today with-the entire squad im

E | from a game between the University
of Detroit and Santa Clara at Sacramento, Cal.,, Nov. 27, Coach Gus Dorais of Detroit said today. Long an advocate of eliminating the extra point which often costs a superior team a victory against a weak one, Dorais all season has advocated a rule change. He thinks the extra point should be eliminated and that in case of a tie the team gaining the most yards should be declared the victor. Buck Shaw, Santa Clara coach,

Scramble for
Dominance in City Series
The 1938 city series football championship scramble was to be
further untangled today as. the Shortridge: Blue Devils were at Washington for a 2:30 p. m, game and Manual clashed with the Broad Ripple Rockets at the same time on Delavan Smith Field. - Six other city and district contests were to find 10 teams in action. Cathedral was at Tech, also at 2:30, Ben Davis is to invade the Southport lair tonight, Park travels to Shelbyville for a night game and Bates of Danville, Ky., moved onto Shortridge Field to battle Crispus Attucks at 3:15 p. m. The Blue Devils were seeking their second city series victory against Washington. They have already downed Broad Ripple, and will take the field free of injuries. Coach Henry Bogue of the Continentals has been cheered by the return of Capt. Bob McCalip who has been out with a hand injury. The
Blue Devils .won last year’s fray,
12 to 6, and hold the lead, five to four, in games with the West Siders. Broad Ripple entered their second intracity game today without Bill Wetmore, regular right halfback, in the lineup. The leading Rocket scorer seriously injured his right arm in a fall down the school steps yesterday. Gene DePrez was to start for Wetmore, Coach Ed

Diederich indicated, The Manual lineup was to be the same as that which played against Tech last week. : Cathedral's unbeaten Irish were seeking their sixth victory against Tech. Last year the eleven’s fine ished all even, 0 to 0. Although Chuck Howard was not likely to be playing for the East Siders the rege ular forward wall was to start and the backfield: was strengthened by the return of Warren Huffman at the quarter and John Higginbotham at half, Cathedral was to present the same starting eleven which romped over Elwood .a week ago. The Crisups Attucks Tigers were after their fourth consecutive vice tory in their homecoming tilt with Bates. Tom Sleet, one of the city’s leading scorers, was to play against the team he was on last year. The Silent Hoosiers rest today but
