nounce to their many friends that they are giving their initial "ladles' day" game at Sawmill park next Sunday, when they meet the exceptionally strong Chicago Culvers. The Culvers are one of Chicago's best teams at 135-40 pounds and promise to give the locals a strong argument for possession of the victory. Th game is rather remarkable -owing to the fact that both teams have firstclass records to sustain them the Culvers not having been beaten for two years. In which they played such wellknown teams as West Pullman. Jollet, Racine, Kenosha, Dubuque, Iowa, not to speak of several high class Chicago teams, while the Anchors have never been defeated or scored on so In an
ticipation of holding their record each team will play the best game of which It is capable. In regard to the record of the Anchors the public of the region are already familiar with the high class timber of which the team is composed, s6 a review of their past victories is unnecessary. The Anchors won from the West Pullman team which it was to have played last Sunday by forfeit. 1 to 0, as the visitors did not put in an appearance. The Anchors want to hear from the
Hammond Maroons and Tigers and the Harbor Gophers for games, and unless these teams get busy no place on the schedule will be left open for them. In next Sunday's game police will patrol the field to keep the- crowd off
the gridiron while the game is. In progress. Admission to game 13 cents.
PURDUE FOOTBALL STOCK WAY UP Lafayette. Ind., Oct. 18. Purdue came out of the. Chicago game without a scratch and after resting yesterday afternoon the team was put through light practice this afternoon. Coach Horr complimented his men on the fine showing made against the Maroons and
told them that "with the same spirit and speed Purdue should beat Indiana this year. The Boilermakers have no game for next Saturday, but on the following Saturday they play DePauw. This is expected to be a hard game, as the Methodists tied Wabash and Wabash defeated Purdue, 3 to 0. The result of the Chicago game and the surprising strength' shown by Purdue has
given the men fresh courage and the rooters look for some great things from
the team from this time on.

NELSON BEATEN BYPAL MOORE Boston, Mass., Oct. 18. Pal Moore gave Battling Nelson one of the worst beatings the Battler has ever taken in their twelve-round bout at th Armory Athletic association last night, referee Flaherty giving the decision to the Philadelphia boy. For the first five rounds Moore made the old Battler look like a novice. In the eighth and twelfth rounds, Nelson showed'a flash of his old-time speed and had the better of these two sessions. In the preliminary, Joe YVolcott, the former welterweight champion, knocked out Bob Lee, a husky negro, in two rounds.

FUMBLING CAUSES YALE MEN FEAR New Haven. Conn., Oct. 18. The game with West Point next Saturday seems to worry the Yale coaches and the fact that there doesn't seem to be a man In the back field of the varsity, outside of Capt. Howe, who seems to be able to hold the ball without fumbling, will probably be met by a shakeup unless great improvement is shown In the coming few days. Much time is being devoted to handling punts and passing the ball. At the opening of yesterday's scrimmage the scrubs drove the varsity down the field and scored a touchdown, the first made against the varsity team this year.
