‘Badgers in Home-Coming at Purdue

DESIGNATION of the Wisconsin game to be played at Lafayette on Oct. 24, as Purdue's official home-coming marks the ninth successive time that the Badgers have furnished the “even year” home-coming opposition for the Boilermakers. The Badgers hold the edge in the all-time football series with 12 victories as compared with nine triumphs for Purdue and five ties. ,' Since the start of the modern series, however, which has progeded without a break on a home-and-home basis since 1925, the 0 akers have Held the upper hand with seven victories as pmpared with six losses and four ties.

2.8 un x = = * PURDUE'S EDGE in the modern series ‘has been largely com‘piled in the home-coming engagements at Lafayette. . . . Only once in the last eight visits to the' Ross-Ade stadium have the Badgers ‘been able to return home on the long end of the score, the lone “triumph coming two years ago when Wisconsin scored a touchdown in the last six seconds of play to eke out a 14-13 triumph. The home-coming series at Lafayette has been a memorable one... . Football fans should recall the 19-19 tie in 1928, Purdue’s 9-8 victorty in 1932, and the Badger’s Frank Merrjwell finish in 1940. Wisconsin has been almost as dominant on its home lot during the same period, allowing Purdue only two victories in nine starts

$39,000 Await Stake Winner

By JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent GOSHEN, N. Y., Aug. 12.—As post time approached for today’s $39,000 Hambletonian stake, classic of the harness world, the - experts were agreed that the race would be decided by behavior rather than speed. Almost without.exception the experts admitted that Colby Hanover —the big gaited little colt that was 2-year-old champion in 1941—had the speed to win, if he didn’t becofne fractious and fancy himself a “running hoss” in search of a jockey, instead of a trotter. Hele sould win if he doesn’t “break,” they said. There was no question of ‘the favorite’s Speed. In his belated first start this year he won the national stake at Old Orchard, Me. July 22, registering 2:03 for the mile in one of his heats. That was the fastest mile for 3-year-olds in 1942. But in his second and last start, on Aug. 1, he broke in one of the heats, coming home fifth, losing the race.

Paxton Hanover, a brown colt

ting at 6-1, largely because Paxie is “perfectly mannered” and never breaks, and has enough speed to be nsistently up in the money.- It is generally. believed that Paxton ‘Hanover-will win if Colby ‘Hanover fails to respond properly to the driving of veteran Fred Egan. Gréen Diamond, a bay colt owned | ance by Leo C. McNamara of ‘Indianapolis, is third choice at 8-1. The odds range from this to 25-1 the quotation for Elbridge T.
