WOULD MATCH EAST AGAINST THE WEST Football Followers Want Contest Between Representative Sectional .... Champions. IDEA 20 YEARS OLD Game Has Been Much Improved in West in Recent Years. By CHALMER MUTCHNER. Notwithstanding Kipling's positive assertion that "the East is the east, the West is the west, and never the twain sha!! meet," have renewed their agitation for an annual battle, each year, between the best, football tain in the West and the best in the East. Such a meeting would generate as much, if not more, enthusiasm among the gridiron devotees, as do the world's series baseball battles anmog the lovers of the national game. Such i game would settle the much mooted riuestion as to which style of football is superior -the eastern or the western. Easy to Pick Winners. It is a rather simple matter each year for even the most casual observer to find which teams in the east and the west are superior. Harvard last year would have ben the unanimous choice of the east as the team to go into the inter-sectional clash. In cases where there would be some question a committee of football experts could make the selection. It lias ben suggested that the best two out of three series would be the most satisfactory, the first two games to be played at the different home fields and the third game, if necessary, played on neutral ground. Idea An Old One. Something like twenty years ago the intersectional series idea was first broached. It immediately was loudly poo-hooed by the big eastern universites, also by the football critics. Each and every one in the east frankly declared that such a contest would be no contest at all, simply a little burlesque on the great college game. And then Fielding Yost oozed his way into the spotlight as coach of the Michigan eleven. Aided and abetted by Heston, Weeks, Redden, Snow, IVTeGuigan and a few others, he built up the greatest football machine in history a team that never had an equal and never will. Afraid of Michigan. At that time the fotball enthusiasts throughout the country demanded a meeting between Michigan and the best team in the east. But to no avail. Michigan and Minnesota had thrown fear into their hearts. They merely dodged the games and blocked every attenyd at a meeting. A few years afterwards when the Michigan cloven was only a fourthrater in comparison with the eleven during the days of Heston, Pennsylvania scheduled Michigan for a game. Each year since then there has been an increased commingling of the eastern and western teams until now the bars placed up by the snobbish easterners are about down and the time seems ripe for a battle each year, at the close of the regularly scheduled season, between the championship teams of the east and the championship of the west, to settle the question, "Which is the greatest team in America?" COLTS BRING LESS THAN THEIR VALUE Owing to a lack of purchasers the sale of weanlings and yearlings yesterday at the Reidston stock farm was stopped alter a lew colts had been auctioned off. The proprietors felt that ihe colts were not bringing what they should, and rather than let all of them go at a sacrifice price, decided to hold the lot until next spring when they will be consigned to the Lackey sale at Cambridge City. Drivers of cars have been fond of mascots from the earliest days of motoring. When in the Gordon-Bennett cup race in France, ten years ago, one of the cars ran into a tree and its driver was killed, the tree was ravaged for splinters which motorists took away as charms against similar disaster.

HIGH SCHOOL TEAM ' IN G00DC0NDITI0N Will Play Annual Game With Teachers on October Twenty-third.
With about a month before the season opens, the high school basketball squad is hard at work every evening. The squad is in excellent shape, as the members have been practicing since school opened. The average weight is about 155 pounds, which is considered a good weight for teams of this class. At the present time seventeen games with schools in Indiana and Ohio have been scheduled with prospects for a few more These games are with fast quintets, and some interesting contests are expected. The local team will play the high school teachers October 23. Games of this nature are always thoroughly enjoyed. They are not played strictly according to rules governing basketball and a great deal of fun is had at the expense of the teacher, who know very little about the game. This match probably will draw the largest crowd of the season. It will be played in the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium. The line-up of the faculty has not been announced. IS AD BUFFALOED? Fight Fans Think Story" Is a Fake. 'Rib CHICAGO, Oct. 22. If the rival Milwaukee promoters can reach an agreement on dates, Charlie White and Tommy Murphy will battle the rounds in the Beer city Monday night. Murphy is being substituted for Ad Wolgast who was to have faced White Friday, but who called off the match because of a broken rib. Murphy yesterday accepted the but insisted that the fight be set over from Friday to Monday. This night belongs to Ben Steinel, who stages shows at the South Side A. C. If he will cancel or postpone his show and allow Mulkern Monday's date, the White-Murphy clasu wil lbe on. The belief of local fans is that Woolgast did not break a rib but realizes the tough game he i facing in White and used the rib story as an alibi. Wolgast has left Milwaukee and is back in Cadillac. White's manager, who was given the tip that Adolph isn't seriously injured, believes the commission should make a thorough investigation into the affair. Eddie McGoorty will arrive in town the later part of the week, to prepare for his battle with Jack Dillon at Milwaukee, on November 3rd. FOOTBALL VICTORY ELATES STUDENTS De Pauw Declares Holiday to Celebrate Defeat of Wabash Eleven. j GHEENCASTLE, Oct. 22. Intoxij cated with victory over Wabash Dei Pauw students yesterday declined to j come to classes continuing the celebration started the day before until . In o'clock yesterday morning, while the instructors waited alone in the I class rooms. t At the chapel hour the faculty was invited to leave the platform and the members of the victorious eleven were given the seats of honor instead. Following a lusty song and cheerfest the members of the team, the coach and some of the members of the faculty addressed the student body. Surrendering to the inevitable President Grose announced. "By virtue of the authority not invested in me today, I hereby declare this a school holiday." The football workout yesterday consisted of light signal practice. None of the men seemed any the worse for the Wabash game. REDKEY TO PLAY AT WINCHESTER SUNDAY WINCHESTER, Ind.. Oct. 22. -The Winchester Athletic club will playthe Redkey team on the Franklin ball diamond next Saturday. The Redkey team has a very enviable record and a fast game is expected. The Winchester team has won a number of football games this season, defeating the Connersville Tigers last Sunday in a very exciting game by the score of 14 to t. SPECIAL EDITION OF AMERICAN FRIEND A special edition of the American Friend devoted to Bible School news is being put en the press by Editor Edgar Nicholson for distribution to the Friends attending the Five Year's Board meetings this week. Sketches from prominent Bible school men of the world are included in the edition The matter of enlarging the paper will come up for discussion before the end of the week. Some are in favor of adding a number of pages to the edition. NOTE MANAGERS Managers of football and basket-' ball teams in Wayne and surrounding counties wishing games are invited to write to the sporting editor of the Palladium, who will be pleased to give their desires publicity in these columns. There are a number of teams in towns near Richmond that are unaware of one another's existacce. and the sporting page of the Palladium is offered to bring them together.
QUAKER SQUAD GETS ADDITIONAL IMPETUS
Stiff Signal Practices on Program in Preparation of Butler Game. A second nights scrimmage practice under Glen Thistlethwaite, former Earlham Coach, has niven the Quaker squad additional impetus and now only a few stiff sitrnal practices will be held before the Butler tame. Some new formations were taught the varsity men and then the scrubs were brought against the regulars for a few minutes scrap. The scrubs were unable to make any headway against the onslaught of the reconstructed Earlham line. This is the first time during the season that the linemen showed any scrap and they made effective gains for their team by fighting their men. Heretofore in the games the men on the line were satisfied with meeting their men and not charging. Thistlethwaite, the big tackle, who was put out for a time during the Hanover game, was out for practice and his appearance will strengthen the lineup. With Thornton , the Georgetown tackle, in for a position there will be a clash for that position. The varsity and scrubs will engage in a brief scrimmage and signal practice tonight. PURDUE PREPARES FOR CHICAGO GAME LAFAYETTE. Ind., Oct. 22. Changing his mind regarding the desirability of secret practice, Coach Smith of the Purdue squad will drill his team every evening for the remainder of the week behind locked gates in preparation for the game at Chicago, Saturday. Purdue's recent showing against Wisconsin has made her an enemy to be feared and the coach intends taking no chances in having his formai tions tipped off to a rival school on the eve of an important contest. A number of new plays are being perfected. A Giant Manager Showed Poor Ability in Critical Test. While the Giants were being made monkevs of in the world's series, so was their manager, John J. McGraw, hailed loudly as the Little Napoleon of the diamond. It seemed that every time McGraw was called on to do something he did the wrong thing. The Giants would have been overwhelmed any way, of course, even with -perfect tactics on the part of their commander, but as it was his poor judgment made the rout all the worse. It is about time for McGraw to go away and take a back seat. For years he has been proclaimed by most 'baseball fans to be the equal of any manager in the game, and some even j MANAGER M'GRAW. ! rating him at the top. above .Mack.! Clarke. Chance, Jennings and Griffith. the that But the 1 high lle used such woeful tactics in world's series of 1911 and 1012 many beaan to lose faith in him. this yenr's exhibition has bf-n ast straw that has broken all the opinions held of him by some of his formerly staunch admirers. Makes Mistake. ! McGraw made one tremendous misMake in last year's series one that ! resulted so disastrously for him and jhio team that nobody expected him to i make it again. He had one pitcher on whom he could depend to be un- : swerved by the excitement incident to the opening game of the world's i series. That man was M.-.thewson. But McGraw didn't start him. He chose Tesreau. After the Red Sox : made a couple of bits off him. Tesreau lost his equilibrium and the Bos-mis-tonians batted in a victory. McGraw- made the very same ; take again this year. The correct move was obviois to all so much j so that practically every man who ; wrote a word for his newspaper about said Mathewson was almost certain choice for the opening game. But no, .McGraw chose Marrjuard. It is history now how the Rube went up in the air in the excitement, and finally, desperate in his effort to get the bali over the plate, served such an easy little lob that Baker hit it into the grand stand for a home run. So, through the fault of McGraw. and nobody else, the Giants have been compelled to start two world's series with opening day defeats.

CHANGES IN RULES BETTER FOOTBALL 1 j Smaller College Teams Meet Successfully Larger Schools. ADVANTAGES OBVIOUS Saturday's Scores Show That Minor Elevens Can Compete on Parity. HERBERT EILER. The defeat of Earlham by Hanover, the tie score at Lafayette, the ictory of Depauw on a Craw fords vil!-' ti 'hi and some of the other surprises that lu: e be'-n so prevalent during the last week are not without their l. leaning. One of the chief ambitien.-. of the American inter-collegiate fotball rules committee tiiat oi amending ihe rules so as to give supposedly wealo r elevens chances to win from larger college or university teams was redlized for the first time since 1 r with the playing of last Saturday's game. Teams which heretofore have been considered mere prefaces in the development of the big elevens for the hardder and more important struggles at last accomplished what they had fought for year after year victories over teams which are rated as the strongest in the country. Equalize Differences. The adoption of the forward pass and the ten yard and four down rule have tended to equalize the difference in weight so smaller college teams are able to combat on even terms with their opponents. This equalization of offensive and defensive strength is a feature of football needed to arouse interest in popular colcentive for the small teams to meet the large elevens, with overwhelming defeat a certainty. , Under the old code the under dog went into the struggle with the one aim of keeping the score as low as pos. No hope of victory was entertained. This course of procedure annually did not tend to stimulate interest in the game. In many cases the beaten teams were so riddled by injuries that they were unable to make good showings later in the season, even against teams of their own standing. With the defeats of Michigan and Minnesota by the Michigan Aggies and Nebraska, the tie games between Purdue and Wisconsin and Ohio State and Oberlin in the west, and the slim margins by which the army won from Colgate and Cornell from Rucknell in the cast, the biggest set of surprises since the new rules were adopted in lVOfi was recorded. "Beat Rose Poly' Cry of Scarlets Hopes of Wabash Rest on Game With Engineers. CR A WFORDSVI LLE. Ind., Oct. 2. "We must beat Rose Poly" was the cry heard yesterday on the campus, in the corridors and even in the class rooms of Wabash college yesterday. Having fallen before the .Methodists and letting Butler play to a tie score, the hopes of the Scarlet have gone glimmering. Should the game with Rose be lost, it will be all over with Wabash for this year. By defeating Rose by a decisive score Wabash will be able to wipe out part of the stigma of the defeat by DePauw, providing that Rose trounces the .Methodists later in the season. Rose has not played any of the secondary teams and it has been difficult j to get a line on her, but from all re- '' ports her tea'm this year is fast ami strong and the Engineers are determined to make a strong bid for the secondary championship of the sta'e. ST OP HIS OTENCE Roy Stratton Says That He Doesn't Mind Gains? to White's Institute "I'm going to the reform school. Yon won't know me when I tret back. I don't mind ffoing. I made my fathr think so and he gave me this ring," was the laughing boast of Roy Sraton. thirteen-year-old boy burs-Mar who was taken to White's Institute at noon today by Mrs. Candler. The boy made the remark in a store yesterday when his pan-nts were at home almost overcome by their son's waywardness. He maintained t!v deception of repentence while with his parents and until he was placed on the train to be taken to the ward for incorrisihle boys. Young Stratton is exceptionally quick and intelligent for his aee and when in court before, made friends with the attaches. His first arrest followed a series of petty thefts. In company with two others, he stole bicycles, shot guns, money, and finally cut the screen door of a house and committed a daylight burglary with his two companions.
