teams. The game is expected to attract.an opening day crowd in the neighborhood of 15,000. In attempting to launch the 1845 campaign victoriously, the Boilermakers, third-place winners in the Big Ten chase last fall, will have] to cope with Johnny Rudan, brilliant Marquette left halfback, who is recognized as one of the most versatile collegiate performers of the day. Two Freshman Backs Coach Cecil Isbell of Purdue is expected to call on a rather unusual blend of youthful enthusiasm and mature experience, The Bollermaker backfield foursome, composed of two major lettermen, Ed Cody, hard-hitting, fullback, and Bill Canfield, left haifback, “and two freshmen, Bob DeMoss, quarterback, and Dave Shaw, right halfback, will depend more on speed and deception than power. But the outcome of the game Is expected to hinge on the play of the forward wall, where lack of proven reserve strength provides one of Isbell’s most worrisome problems. Pat O'Brien at left tackle, will: be the lone member of the Purdue starting line who drew regular starting assignments throughout last season, although he will be bolstered by two other major lettermen who saw considerable ac-

But in experience, Indiana will have an edge toward repeating last vear’s whitewash of the Wolverines, Michigan will have six freshmen in its starting lineup, while Indiana can field a starting squad consisting of only two freshmen, the rest veterans. Probable 1. U. Backfield Ben Raimondi, Brooklyn, N, Y, at quarter; Dick Deranek, South Bend, who averaged 7 yards per rush last season, at right half, both sophomores, and George Taliaferro, fast-stepping Gary Negro {freshman, at left half, is the most likely starting backfield, along with Chuck Sanders, junior, at fullback. Sanders is the likely replacement for John Cannady, veteran, who did! not make the trip”on account of a knee injury. A 200-pound line, flanked by veteran ends Bob Ravensberg and Ted Kluszewski, may help the Indiana cause a lot. Veterans Russ Deal, Bicknell; Joe Sowinski, East Chicago; Frank Ciolli, Campbell, O,, will also be in the forward wall, along with freshman John Golds berry, South Bend. Most likely to fill the center spot vacated by Capt. John Tavener last year is Bob Meyer, Indianapolis, converted sophomore guard,

Formerly, DePauw held it for two consecutive years, winning it with 6-to-3 and 33-to-0 results in 1942 and 1943. The 33-to-0 decision, sec~ ond worst whipping the Tigers have been able to hand the Little Giants in 52 games, came when All-Ameri-can Bob Steuber, and Bob Johnson, former All-Big Ten center at Purdue, led the Tiger attack in an undefeated season.

— YORK, Sept. 21 (U, P.).— The “Turtle Derby” for the American league pennant lacked only the strains of slow music today with the Detroit Tigers and Washington Senators funeral-marching along as if to their doom instead of to the fat money payoff of the world series, The bedraggled ball clubs, finding it hard to regain the sizzling pace that made them contenders in the first place, were doing a fine job of backing into the pennant after their “all-out” series at Washington over the last week-end. The Senators looked like “nine old men” in losing their fifth straight game at Yankee stadium to New York, 6 to 1, yesterday, playing with their eyes on the scoreboard to see whether the Tigers were faring any better at Cleveland, They weren't. The Indians made it two straight over Detroit, also by a 6 to 1 score. All of their runs came along with a deluge of rain in the eighth inning when play was delayed nearly an hour. The Tigers salvaged more out of

GREENCASTLE, Ind. Sept, 21.—

By HARVEY HARRIS Football prospects don’t look very good at Speedway this year. Coach Ralph Johnson, who celebrates a decade of coaching at the Sparkplugs’ school ® this year has only the future to look toward resolutely. In a nutshell, the Speedway picture can be summarized under the heading “inexperience.” As Coach Johnson explains his predicament, “The team was terribly shot to pieces with the last commencement exercises.” With the exception of a few experienced boys who can be counted on the fingers of one hand, the’ reserve strength of the Sparkplugs

this season is numbered in freshmen and upperclassmen who have

not tasted previous high school grid battle. On the brighter side of the ledger

Each Washington defeat makes it necessary for Detroit to win one less game, Detroit is ahead by one game. The Cardinals tightened up the National league race again as Harry Brecheen pitched a 2-to-0 six-hit shutout over the Cubs for his sixth straight victory. That reduced Chicago’s lead to two games with eight more for each team to play. The Cards made three of their 10 hits off Ray Prim in the first inning to take a ‘1-to-0 lead. Ray Sanders drove in Buster Adams with a scratch single. Three more singles in the seventh produced the other tally with Al Schoendienst scoring Marty -Marion, The Cubs threatened in the ninth, but were stopped. After Johany Hopp in right made a backhand

The Yankees scored twice off Washington starter Mickey Haefner in the first. George Stirnwelss doubled, went to third on a sacri~ fice and scored on a long fly. Her. shel Martin, who had walked and gone to second on the fly, scored on Nick Etten's single. Stirnweiss added another run with a thirdinning homer to counter a tally by Washington. After that Joe Page, the Yankee lefty, closed the scoring gate on the listless Capitolians, Alton Benton, going into the eighth with a 1-to-0 lead for the Tigers saw it blow up in his face when his mates made three errors behind him. Lambert (Dutch) Meyer, with two singles in the inning, scored one run and drove in another to lead the six-hit Cleve land assault on Benton and Paul Trout, who relieved him.

picture of a fairly intact veteran backfield. Returning lettermen include: Jim Kelley, quarterback; Bob Harrah, left halfback and Dick Becker, right halfback. Returning veteran linemen are Bob Cassady, center; Bob Oslos, left tackle, and Bob Kuykendall, left gaurd. The line is light. And to prove it, the Speedway pilot gestures toward his string of 150 pound mem-~ bers of the forward wall who were to oppose Decatur Central this afternoon. About the only hope for that barrier that Johnson can see is the football-wise activity of Oslos. The biggest boy in the line, Oslos, a Junior, is a smooth worker on both offensive and defensive. The Speedway coach points to his work in last Friday's game in which the tackle blocked two kicks. Seniors On Line In addition, there are seniors holding down berths at the right tackle and center positions, But about those freshmen, Johnson smiles and admits that prospeets in that department. are looking up. Of course, the Speedway pilot says, it won't come this year. The. Sparkplugs will be playing on a shoestring for the next couple of seasons, in fact. To round out the backfield, Speedway has a senior fullback who promises to match strides with any of his letterman friends. Out for the team for the first season, John Humphreys will set the backfield in good shape. He is an excellent kicker and a consistent ball carrier. The remainder of the Speedway schedule 'is as follows: Sept. 28 at Lawrence Central, Oct. 5, Deaf school;* Oct. 12, Plainfield; Oct. 17 at Beech Grove and Oct. 23, Pike Township.
