THE TIMES

East Chicago to Have Real Football Team Gophers Expect This Year to Shine With 20 Members Back From War.

East Chicago gridiron fans will te treated to a high grade brand of football this year. The Gophers, runners up for middle western championship Jjonors in 1017. will ba represented by an eleven 'hat promi8ea to eclipse any aggregation pvrr turned out by the Twirr Cities. The Uophers had no team in the field during ho 13 IS season due to the fact that sorr.e twenty young East Chicagoans forsook the khaki of the grid for the khaki find blue of Uncle Sam's fighting forces. Having played their part in the momentous argument across the Atlantic 'hrfie sturdy little athletes are again r-rdy to don the moleskins and confine l.tir strenuous activities to the football f.e'd. When tha Thorns of ruiiman and the Oophers staged their historic battle in 1017 the weight which was set at 140 pounds proved easy for the l"ast Chiaso Idols. Military life, however, so ;.sreed w.th the local boys that they will iti-p on the field this season weighting f?-ven or eight pounds more per man. Tt in possible that the Gophers will " admission to the Chicago football :iKue, either as a home club or as a ir.veler. Several prominent East Chi-.ife-iT erortsmen are said to be angling or control of the team. A meeting of h- players wil be held in the Quality l ine Shop, 613 Chicago avenue, YVedi.wcday evening at 8 o'clock at which Mm plans for the com.ng season will be : vrmulated. lielow Is a list of the Gophers who toi k part In the great World War: Army Delor. Karlin, McShane. J. Rosenthal. D. Rosenthal, Wickey, O'ConTic It. Steffer, Browu and Oswego. Xavy Dixon. Burse!!, Polon?k, Iilake. Carlson, Quinn, Cleary, Madura, tCostur. and S. Thomas. Still In the service. Whether or not all of these boys will rc'urn to the game Is not known but It is a safe bet that a vast majority of them will be pursuing the inflated pig-t-liin when the season opens. f

YANKEE FANS SLANT

EONARD S

RECORD

IT IS BUT TO SIGH

By JACK VElOfK, Internal tonal vr Sports TZMtOr NEW YORK. AUG. 11 A salaray dispute by the common garden variety, smarted by Dutch Leonard and ended by the Yankees, who refused to grant his demands and sold him to Detroit, has. bad a bearing on the American Leag-ue pennant race, aeording to the Yankee fans. Every time the Yankee fan lamps ihe pitching averages cr sees where .eonard has won a game for the Tigers he Is reminded that the things might have been different. Miller Kagglm, co do'Jbt, is often reminded of it, too. Leonard, who Jumped the Red Sox '.ast Summer to go to work In a ship yard, was originally included in the f!g Yankee-Red Sox deal which brought Ernie Shore and Duffy Lewis i the Yanks. But Leonard made an itttrr.pt to hold up the Yankee owners and stuck to his demands so strongly

The Yankee fan. therefore, is asking: How would Leonard have looked iii a Yankee uniform this year? Several members of the Yankee pitching staff who were expected to go great guns for Hugprins have proven a disappointment. Ernie Shore being among them. Bat Leonard, with a club that got away to a rather poor start, is holding a position among the .500 pitchers at this writing, and the chances are tha.t he would hove done as well, or even better for New York. The White Sox, betting a fast pace, and making opposition dizzy by their fighting ualities, might have had Mr. Leonard too. They could have had the pitcher had they wanted to pay h'.s price for pitching, but they did not enthuse over It. The fact that Kid Gieason is often forced to use two or three pitchers per game indicates that Leonard would have been a pillar of strength on the Sox roster. Cleveland too, could have had the temperamental pitcher, but like the White Sox the owners of the Indians failed to see the value In Leonard at the price and passed him up And the fact that at this writing the Detroit Tigers have a chance for the rag shows where Leonard can be figured as a picher around whom the American League pennant race might settle by chance. Any one of the clubs which might have had him today the Yanks. Sox and Indians would be well able to use him. JOIE RAY TAKES AKRON POSITION Joe W. Ray. America's greatest distance runner, has become a member of the experimental department of the B. F. Cfoodrich Rubber company, at Akron, but will be eligible to represent the Illinois A. C.
