Chicago, who was Hammond's nearest rival all season, finally wound up in a ti .for second place with Harvey just

three full games behind th leaders " the league. Too much credit cannot "b given to Manager Heimbach of the Hammond club, who so successfully piloted the local team throughout the season. There were several times during the year when things looked a little blue, but not withstanding a couple of ba4 reverses which happened at rather critical times Heimbach managed, with the capable assistance of Tommy Harle, to hold the players together with the result that the team was kept Intact, which accounts for the wonderful success of one of the best amateur ball clubs ever turned out in this city. On paper the team did not look like a, real top notcher at the start of the year tut as the season progressed the club as a whole, urged on by the untiring efforts of Manager Heimbach. played good ball and surprised not only their own followers but also many other local fans who were not inclined to take the most optimtistic view of Hammond's chances for a pennant at the outset of the Suburban League. Aside from trimming every team in the leage at least 2 out of 3 games, the Hammond K. of C.'s also won several exhibition contests, defeating such strong clubs as Valparaiso. Lowell and the Hammond Foresters. Following is a complete record of all games played by the K. of C.'s from May 8th. the opening date of the Suburban League, up to Sept. 18th when they closed their season: May 8, Hammond, 19, Harvey, 1, at Hammond; May 15, Pullman 7.

HAMMOND SEEKS FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP OF COUNTRY

Dr. Young Has Four AilAmerican Players on the Team Which Looks to "be Best City Has Ever Had.

Hammond Is out to win the professional football championship of the United States. With a team on paper that eclipses anything the city has ever sponsored on the gridiron. Dr. Alva A. Young, owner of the Hammond professional football club, announced today that he expects to win the undisputed championship of the country. He said that the club which will open the season at Buffalo next Sunday is the best that he could assemble without thought of expense. The eleven is practicing dally at Harrison park. The tentative line-up for Sunday follows: Fullback. C. Txn.io, Pennsylvania, 1919; halfbacks, Oscar Knop, captain Illinois U., 1S19, and "Wallie Hess. Indiana U.; quarter. Charles Mathys. Indiana, 1920; ends, Clark Hankp. University of Minnesota. '20. and Mayo 'Williams. Brown University, '20; tackles, Ijow Usher. Syracuse U., '20, and Risley. captain Indiana U.; guards, Tolman. Syracuse U.. and Dave Tallent. Grov-; City College. Pa.. '20; center, J. Depler, University of Illinois, '20. The replacements Include Frank Sellger. Hammohd; F. Oltz, Illinois; L.. Turner, Georgia Tech.; C. Miller. Brown University; Dick King, Harvard; E. Voit, Northwestern; Mox Hicks, Pennsylvania; Henry Gillo, Colpate .Minnesota, and Gil Falcon. Wabash. The tentative schedule Includes

PORTER. Ind, Spt. 29. Weather permitting-, next Sunday will see the greatest crowd of speed fans ever assembled in Northtrn Indiana at the Porter Speedway when Jack Lieech,

Hammond race promoter will put on

the auto meet which he had announced for September 11.

Rain played Jack a nasty trick three

weeks ago. the first time it has interfered with him since he cot Into tli

racing- game. He was out looking

over the track this morning and after

making several turns around tho oval in his car decided that little needed to

bo done to put It in perfect condition.

"All this rain we have had has not

bothered the track," he explained. "We put plenty of oil on it during the dry weather and It ;s now worked

down like a roadway. The clay undsr

it is like concrete. I look for some

migrhty fast time next Sunday." The same bunch of drivers who had

entered for September 11 will be present next Sunday and in addition there

will be half a dozen new ones. A couple of drivers wtih fast buses

The refusal of other schools of the conference is taken to mean that there will be no more post-season contests in the "Big Ten." such as Ohio State played last year with California.

headed this way and would enter Sunday's meet. There will be five events. The time

trials which are really a series of races themselves, as prises are given, will be run in the forenoon as they lengthen out the pr ok rani too much to be put on in the afternoon. The spectators get restless. The opening face of the afternoon will be the ten-ratio light car avant. The heavy cars will compete in a tenmile race followed by a five-mile raoe for slow cars, the ona which failed to qualify for ths ilrst two. Probably the most interesting and exciting- will be tha "miss and out" race. There will be six starters and It will cover six miles. They all start from tha tape at onoe. In each circuit of the track the last man to cross the tape must drop out so tat each driver must be on his toes all of the time. Thus there will be only two cars competing In the last mile. It Is expected that this event will provide even more excitement Jor the fans that the popular battle royal which Mr. Leech introduced this season.

It is a noteworthy fact that many of the clubs in the first division of professional football a few years ago ar? no longer in the game or not sufficiently strong- to demand games of Hammond. These, teams are Wabash, the Fort Wayne Friars, the Cincinnati Celts, Detroit Heralds and Toleo- Maroons. A few years ag-o they had to bu defeated in order to gain the f:ajr. By the middle of October Dr. Young will have made at least one addition to the squad. . He has engaged Powell, the sensational fullback of the Oregon Aggies -who will Join the Hammond team not later than Oct. 20. According to all the critics Powell is In class by himself as a fullback. There are several all-Ametican and all-western men in the Hammond line-up. Mayo Williams. Depler, Lew Usher, Dick King and Powell" are allAmerican men. Critics who have watched Coach Hicks of Pennsylvania putting the eleven through its workouts daily at Harrison park are agreed that it appears to be the fastest aggregation Hammond has ever seen, not excepting the teams of '18 and '19. The players are living in Hammond. They have skull practice at Dr. Young's office daily and George Sommers has donated the use of his gymnasium and shower baths. The training is as strict as college training and the old college spirit is being instilled into the men. "I don't see how they can stop this team." said Dr. Young. "It looks unbeatable to m"."
