Although the : opponents for the game are un1 known the boys are showing up fine and putting e'very ounce of en- ! ergy in this week's practice.

All the Wrhitlng Kang is in the proverbial pink of condition and they are nervously awaiting the opening whistle. The latest reports say that Blue Island's team Is going great guns, but the Oil City gang Is confident of taking their measure. Coach Hart has constructed an eleven from mostly green material, as only four veterans reported for the initial practice session. Hopes were brightened, however, by the return of Captain Ernie Walsko, who is again expected to scintillate at his old halfback birth. In practice. Case at center appears to be the find of the season, while such veterans as Sheperd. Dovan and Dewey are outdoing themselves. Whiting has a stiff schedule and as yet Hart has not made any pre-season statements as to the outcome. Coach Hart is srtarting his fourth year as mentor at Whiting high. His teams this jcar will be built up from green inaterlal, as many stars in sportdom have finished their athletic careers at the Green and White institution. But with Hart at the helm. Whiting can be depended upon to have teams that w-ill fight to the last ditch. Following Is the schedule for tho season of 1?22: Sept. 30 Blue Island at Whiting. Oct. 14 Froebel at Whiting. Oct. 21 Michigan City at Whiting Oct. 27 Whiting at Valpo. Xov. 4 East Chicago at Whiting. ALSO LICK T Well, will they never stop kicking the bankers around? They oughta cut it out. First it was the terrible Times men who shook down the rich and idle bankers for three defeats, and now tho brave firemen come along and whip them 6 to 4 at Harrison Tark. It would be unmerciful to write a facetious story today about the game yesterday. Why add fuel to the flame? If the bankers still have a chance to eell their uniforms, why spoil that? Bill Kippo has been offered 15 cents apiece for the outfits but he's holding out for two-bits. Jack Rozan. again went into the box for the bankers and held the fire laddies to eight hits. He had four strike-outs to his credit. Mr. Call of the firemen pitched a fine game, striking out ten men and holding the bankers to four hits. Other players on the firemen's team are Shirmer, Riblsky, Hoffman. Schroeder, McKay, Stone, Horenburg and Pollex. There may be a game played early next week between the Times and the firemen. Announcement of that Important event will come later. Budd Shades Joe Welling in 10 Rounds at Atlanta ATLANTA. Ga.. Sept. 29.

LIFT LID By GOPHER With Sunday only a couple of days away, the middleweight division football champions of the MidWest, namely the East Chicago Gophers will lift the lid for the first game of the season. From all Indications a very large attendance is expected. Fans from near and far will gather to see what last year's champs look like. With a fe more days of strenuous practice, the Gopher eleven will be as fit. as a fiddle. Last night was signal and skull practice. In taking on the strong South Chicago Orpheums, the home club has picked a football club that has been organized for several yeais and is credited with winning more games In several years than any two clubs In the Mid-West. The South Chicago club has played teams that were rated as professional teams, .meaning men that played college football. Last season they were In the heavy weight division and cut of fourteen games they were defeated once. Batchelor of Indiana Harbor, who has played football for a few years and is considered one of the fastest men in this part of the country. Is out with the Gophers. Last season he played halfback with the White Eagles and the Lion.. It was during a game with the Lions that Batchelor broke three ribs, but Batchelor suya he is a "football lov. ing fool" find wants to play. If he can produce the stuff he will be put in with the regulars. He was one of the stars that played on tho General American baseball team. Tomorrow night the lineup for Saturday will be published In The Times. The Gophers last year was the lightest team in their division, never scaling over 14S round:-, where they could have gone up to 160 pounds. This season the club will average the same. So on taking on teams in this division the boys are taking on teams that outweight them about 20 pounds. The Get-Together Dance which is scheduled for Saturday night wlil bring out the population to give the boys the once over before they start the season.
