FRESHIES OUT Rloomington, Ind., Sept. 25. Two football elevens going at top speed, one coached by Jimmy Sheldon and the other by Allen Mesetek. showed their familiarity with the signals and made it plain that Indiana Is not going to suffer from a lack of pood materia! after all. Barry Whitaker. and "Jakie" Hunt are having a hard fight for the position of quarter back, and both will be used Saturday in the game against Depauw. In the loss of Andy Gill, the crimson star kicker, a new man for this department must be found. Knglehart has the best record as a punter and place kicker and will be relied on dur

ing the season. The freshmen had fifty-eight men out today.

!the second team on for a short practice

game. Several members of last year's freshmen team are making a strong bid for the line positions. Among these are Hays, Hedrlck, Clark and Street. "lOckle" Moll passed a good part of his time in tutoring O'Brien in punting. The back fit id material shows great speed, and is much heavier than

the men of last year.

i

tin .spjKi-.. Gridiron prospects for the Hammond high school football squad this season not only look brighter than it ever has, but is proving satisfactory. After a week of hard scrimmage work and making a thorough canvas of the present lineup chances are better for a championship team than ever, and the students are not only living in high hopes of capturing the county honors, but will make a hard struggle t bring home the bacon from northern Indiana. Although prospects look glowing for Hammond this year the squad have a lot of hard work ahead of them, as there will be nearly six new players in the lineup. Coach wen and Captain

Swanton realize what this means and are making a big effort..to put all the snap and ginger in the team as possible. With the advantage over other years i of having nearly two squads out at practice. Coach Owens Is putting them

through daily scrimmage work and by the first game, a week from Saturday, hopes to develop points in the lineup that they have been weak In before. The team so far has shown consider

able interest in their work and not only will have one of the fastest squads to commence the season with, but the lineup will weigh five pounds to a man heavier than last year. In a scrimmage game at the H. A. A. park last week the regulars walked away with the scrubs, gaining two touchdowns. Hammond's first game will be with Gary a week from Saturday afternoon at the steel city. Although a complete schedule has not been arranged, the local school has secured the following games:

STAGG fiAY START REAL WORK TODAY

The East Chicago Tigers, who won

the championship of northern Indiana last season, have Joined the Chicago football league In the middleweight division and will play regularly scheduled games with Chicago teama during the coming season. The Chicago football league Is offering a handsome

silver loving cup to the best team, and i central committee

Kast Chicago is going to work hard to win It. and if past merit counts, should I have a strong chance. The team this year will be backed by the East Chicago Baseball association and will be managed by Melvin

Hascall, who has managed the team for the past five years. The ames will all be played at the East Chicago baseball park, 141st and Forsyth avenue. Although most all of last year's team will be on hand again this year, In order to give everybody who wonts to play a chance, there will be a practice game and general tryout at the park next Sunday and every one who can piny football is urged to come out and try for the team. Mat Sternberg of Indiana Harbor

will captain the team this season, and all trying for the team should report to him. East Chicago probably will play only

three games outside of the league, ' Pr

namely, two games with Hammond and one with South Bond. ! Now remember, football players,' next Sunday at East Chicago baseball park.

MINERAL SPRINGS TRACK ALMOST

COMPLETED "The track at Mineral Springs will be ready for the horses to gallon over

next Sunday and we expect some of the advance guard at the course by that time," was the announcement made by A. F. Knotts. who is in charge of the construction work, when he came in from the new race course yesterday. An inquiry as to whether state officials might interfere with the proposed meeting seemed to furnish amusement rather than annoyance to the man in charge of the works. "Of course I have heard of the bookmakers' association that has been formed In Chicago," said Mr. Knotts, "but I can say truthfully that no one connected with the Mineral Springs Jockey club has ever seen or had any connection with this organization. Open bookmaking will not be allowed and

those or us who have invested our

money in the track will see that gam bllng laws are not violated." John A. Gavit, city attorney of Ham

mond and chairman of the democratic

also one of the own

ers of the new course, said there would

be no interference with the plans of the

Jockey club. "We are paying no attention to what we hear about bookmaking," said Mr. Gavlt. "If we had not been certain of our standing in the matter we never would have spent the money we have invested in this racing plant."

Maroon Coach Plans to Send Football Candidates Into Scrimmage.

Scrimmage is next on the Maroon i football bill. Coach Stagg is ready to; test the actual playing ability of his! candidates and will rush the- season by ; orde-ring a scrimmage earlier this year 1 than ever before. He intends to stage a battle royal at the Midway camp today or tomorrow. j Improvement in the physical condi-! tion of the players is responsible for j the coacii's decision. Yesterday's prac- j tlce was the Irmuest to date and the, men came t V. r u . . h the grlnrl with enough wind left tr show spee-el in the daily sprints. Coach J-tagg; figures that they will be- able' to stand a scrimmage session of fair length. The first four practices have brought out the relative strength of the candidates, and the director already i3 mapping out provisional lineups. At present, with the Indiana game only ten

days away, the Maroons are ail at sea as to the makeup of the team. The rivals for the vacant places had to stand good Inspection in yesterday's practice, but nothing definite resulted from the tryouts. Stagg will take no chances of injuring green material by forcing aclvanceel work.

TIGER ELEVEN'S DEFENSE STRONG Princeton. N. J., Sept. 25. A driving rainstorm did not keep the Tigers from a grueling scrimmage today. The scrubs were given the ball, with instructions to test the1 varsity's defense. The field was so wet and the ball so slippery that line plunging was the only attack. Twice the scrubs forced the varsity back on their goal line, but no scoring was done. The defense was surprisingly strong. Logan, the scrub tackle, who tore things up yesterday, was given a chance on the varsity today, and held his own.

New Y'ork, Sept 25. After several weeks spent in observing the work of

voting plavers in the minor leagues

throughout the country, Arthur Irwin, scout for the New York America nr has come to the conclusion that the lefthanded pitcher is dying out. "I have combed the bushes thts year as never before." said Irwin, "and nev-

did I see such a scarcity of south

paws. I cannot account for It, except on the theory that left-handed persons are getting rare in all walks of life. "In my travels this season I saw few left-handed pitchers, fewer than I ever saw in all my years in baseball. I'll venture the prediction that next season there will be fewer new southpaws in the big leagues than in any season in
