Hammond Football Chief Offers Doug Fairbanks a Place

HAMMOND. Ind, Nov. 28. Paul Parduhn. promoter cf the Hammond football team, was snorting inad when Ins club was crushed by Pine Village, "1 to 6, Sunday. The cause of his anger was the fact that college stars, one after another, nad turned down his offers to play with Hammond after the close of the conference season. The fact that Ewert, Indiana university star, was fired from the conference because he was in the Hammond lineup one Sunday last season, has cut off the supply. So Parduhn today wired Douglas Fairbanks, offering him $1,000 or 20 percent, of the gate and expenses to play with Hammond against the Fort Wayne Friars next Sunday. "We need the 'pep king' for you birds," the owner told his players. Thehot stove league in Hammond

SOLDIERS GAME AT GONNERSVILLE

An army football game is to be staged at Connersville at 2 o'clock on Thanksgiving day on the vacant lots south of the Connersville Furniture ompany. The two elevens that will play are from Company C, 335th Regiment, Camp Taylor. The first team from Company C is the champion team of the Regiment. The price of admission is 50 cents, which is to be turned over to the boys to pay their expenses home. Company C is comprised of men from Fayette county and adjacent territory.

"I'll never forget my first week at Carlisle," said Warner recently. "I coached as I had been coached taking advantage of the fact that players do not talk back to the coach. Before the first week was over some of the best players had quit the team and did not show up for practice. I sought them out to locate the trouble. They said that they liked to play football, but they did not like being cussed and. tongue lashed so much. I reformed, and got them back on the team. It was a valuable lesson for me. I soon found that I could do my work without abusing or insulting my men." It i3 understood that before New

Contributors to the funds for 'athletic equipment for the soldier boys will be interested to learn that every bit of this equipment will go right along with the Sammies when they are ordered to the front. Each company has one corporal who is responsible for every boxing glove, every baseball bat, every medicine ball, in fact every bit of this athletic equipment He checks up the supply each night and then locks it in a large box provided for this purpose. And the Sammies had almost as soon leave their rifles in this country as their sports equipment.

BUTLER TO PUT OUT HEAVY TEAM

The team sent against the soldiers will be the heaviest that has represented Butler this year. Mullane, Dailey and Agnew are out of the game on account of Injuries. Their positions will be filled by much heavier men. John Ferre will be allowed to get into this game and his weight of 214 pounds should carry '-him through the heaviest opponents lins for long gains. . : Different plays will be used in this game than were used in the Indiana game Saturday.

Purdue is Crippled For Soldiers Game

LAFAYETTE. Ind., Nov. 28. Just how many Purdue players will be able to line up next Saturday against the 'army tpam at Camp Zachary Taylor, Louisville. Ky., is uncertain. Several

of the mainstays of the Boiler Maker'

team are suffering severely from injuries received in the Indiana game. Captain Berns has a ligament in his leg torn and is badly crippled. Huffine, the big fullback, has a sprained anklr. Allpn is also lame and Hume has a black eve.

Coach O'Donnell and his men will ioave here Friday night for Louisville. The lineup of the army team has not yet been announced but it is likely ihat Van Aken. formerly of Purdue, onw a lieutenant in the national army will play against his former teammates. The Boiler Makers do not particularly relish the post-season game but will play it to keep a contract and eive the Camp Taylor boys some entertainment. Prospects are that Huffine will be elected captain of the 1918 team at Purdue. Berns, Mize. Allen and Olmstead have completed their , intercollegiate football careers. Purdue's hope next season will rest in the members of this year's freshman team, including Trowbridge, end; Sellew, tackle; Reevese, Hamilton and .D;iilv.. halfb.ifks: KiitK jrimrd- Shin.

Drey fuss Says Honus Has Quit For Good

LOUISVILLE. Ky., Nov. 28. Confirmation that Honus Wagner, whom he characterized as the "greatest shortstop of all time," definitely has retired from baseball comes from Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the Pittsburgh Nationals. "He really should not have tried last season" Dreyfuss said. "He found it impossible to play with the speed which the fans have grown accustomed to expect of Wagner." "Honus quits the game, to which he has been a credit, with probably as many friends as any ball player ever had," Dreyfuss stated, adding that Wagner has accumulated a competence and would live in retirement with his family in a Pittsburgh rh.
