SCORELESS T

BT HECK. "WHITING, Ind.. Nov. 23. Taking no chances in injuring any of his regulars for tho Turkey day game with the East Chicago Gophers, Coach Hart sent his second string men against the powerful Hub City Legion team, Sunday, and' was content wtlh a scoreless tia , Crown Point came here with a team that outweighed the Friars thirty pounds per man and a strong desire to wipe out the defeat that the blacK and gold eleven handed them parly in the season. Thoy loft the field satisfled that they had done ft good Job in holding the Friars' second string men from crossing the last chalk mark. The Friars threatened the Legion team's goal twice. In the second onsrter tbev vnrkcil the hall deep in

to Crown Point territory but were halted on tha ten yard line. Again in the third quarter they carried the pigskin to within a foot of goal but the light backfleld men could not penetrate tha heavy forward wail of the Legion team. To start the fourth quarter Crown Point threw a scare into the crowd when they took tha oval from the center of the field to the Friars 8-yard line. Here the forwards braced and Crown Point lost tha ball on downs. The game ended with the ball in Whiting's possession on their own forty yard line. Quarterback Kecklch did not open his bag of trick plays but stuck to straight football due to the presence of Gopher scouts. M. Opatt. G. Opatt. Adley arid Jimmy Callahan were the brleht lights of the game.

OVIESPROVEIIilNOIS' VICTORY WAS FLUKE

Not Likely That Formal Protest Will Be Made by Coach Wilce. COLUMBUS. O.. Nov. 22 Much Interest was evidenced here yesterday In the claim of some Ohio State followers that Illinois defeated Ohio State In their annual football game here last Saturday by a touchdown on a forward pass rlay that was completed after the hall had been grounded.

MoMon pictures of the game played at a downtown theater night, showed clearly that after ball had been passed It struck

ground twice before It was scooped up by Walqulst, of Illinois, who then ran several yards for tha only touchdown of the game. Coach "Wilce made arrangements to see tha picture at a private showing today and "stills" of the play were being taken from the motion picture film. The Ohio State cnach Indicated that while no formal protest probably would be made on the play, trie photographic proof would be called to the attention of the men who officiated at tho game. Coach "Wilce declared that immediately following the lay Ohio State players had asked the officials whether tha ball had grounded and were told It had not. Despite the tale told by the moving pictures, Ohio State officials declared yesterday that the Illinois victory probably would stand.

dlslast the the

Thursday Last Game for 10 Irish Stars NOTRE DAME, Nov. 22. Quarterly examinations prevented the dally scrimmage at Cartier Field yesterday, but Coach Rockn will have his men hard at work today In preparation for the Michigan Aggie game, which will close the local season here on Thanksgiving Day.

E. C. DODGERS ELIMINATE LIONS Hava you ever been to an Important prizefight and witr.essad a knockout by an unexpected blow to the K. O. button after the pugs had fearfully mixed It for a minute and a half? Do you remember the agonizing look that spread over the batterea map o the unfortunate battler as he bent towards the ctinvas in the preliminary stages of closing his peepers for the referee to announce the official ultimatum of defeat over his body? And do you recall with what breathless expectancy you followed tha - loser's final desperate effort to rise to his feet again for another chance at the waiting victor, but fall helpless to tho mat beaten and defeated? If you hava witnessed all this then you have a concrete picture of the football game at the fight arena last Sunday between the East Chicago Dodgers and the Indiana Harbor Lions for the 125-pound championship or Lake county. The two teams were about equally matched and furiously battled all over tho field without counting a marker. In the last few minutes before the close of tho first half tha Dodgers brilliantly worked tha pigskin on straight football to within thirty yards of the Lion's goal and then pulled off tha unexpected a boautlfui trick play. Blake, Dodger quarterback, after going thru the motions of feeding the ball to the backs on a fake criss-cross Una buck dashed twenty or thirty feet to the side and then fired a sure shot to Duffy who was waiting behind the goal line for the sailing pill. So quickly and so perfectly was the play pulled off that the Lions resembled the beaten pug after his KO. spot had been unexpectedly punched. It completely demoralized their whole team. Only once after that did they recover sufficient courage and spirit to earnestly try for the Dodger's goal but then it was too late for tha timekeeper's whistle announced the ending of the game as the Lions forced the ball on a series of good passes to the Dodgers' forty-yard line. And so the name went down in local gridiron history as a 7-0 victory for Pat McShane's East Chicago Dodgers over such loaded stars as Galick. Kenny, Gant,. Nw)ell, Sutton, Lind. Mattakowskl and other high school illuminaries of equal calibre. It was a great victory and It eliminated one of the most serious contenders for the lightweight championship of tha county.

N FOOTBALL

Many Games Have Kept the Fans on the Jump This Season -

BY JACK VEIOCK (STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE! NEW VOHK.. Nov. 22. This Has been a season of many upsets n the gridiron. Centra's victory over Harvard. Harvard's triumph over Vale, Navy's humbling of Trlnceton and many other games that resulted in surprises have done their bit toward keeping the football fan guessing. As a result followers of the game have come to the conclusion that it Is best to take nothing tor granted in fcotball and critics are wary today about picking favorites in the final games of the season. Several games of importance remain to be played. The I'itt-Penn state contest at Pittsburgh Thursday and the ArmyNavja game at the Polo grounds Satuiday are the headllners. While followers of football are disposed to regard Navy and Penn Stat as favorites to win these fames, the fact remains that the betting public here Is up in the- air on how to size the annual battle between the cadets and middles .and adherents of Tenn State while confident their eleven will triumph over Pop W.'.rner's Pittsburgh Panthers, are not offe'lng the longest odds ever put down 09 a f-otDall team. Penn State's player?, too, hava taken Pitt seriously end worked harder for this game than any other contest of tha season. The Navy looked gr at after the Princeton game and still looks good. The defeat of the Middies by Penn State was n disgrace for the Annapolis team, as the 13 to 7 score Indicated. Arrpy looked good In the Yale game. The Cadet seemed to be a team of surprising strength. But along came Notre Dame and swamped them under a 2S to 0 score which sent their stock slHlng down the toboggan. However, Army, like Harvard, fights harder aga-nst the one opponent than any other team and Coach Daly's boys may surprise every one. After the Penn State-Pittsburgh game, Coach Bezdek will pick hl3 squad for the long trip to Seattle where L'nlverslty of Washington is to be mt by the Nittany Lions .m December 3. California beat this teaai 72 to 3 and It will be interesting to see what Penn State can do witn It after a long trip across the continent. Iowa has not yet accepted the invitation of the tournament of roses committee at Pasadena to play California's champions on New Year's Day. Lafayette or Notre Dame may be invited by the golden staters. v
