me of the hfgh points in the foot-! ball season will be reached Saturday' when the Earlham football team meets I

Rose Poly on Reid field. This Is the sentiment being expressed by the followers of the Maroon and White. The Rose Poly game is generally a good indicator as to the strength of the other teams In the state, although this year the Engineers have not met any of the strong teams. Three-quarters of an hour of scrimmage occupied the attention of the grid pquad Wednesday evening. Al Carter held down the quarter-back position very creditably considering the fact that he had only been at the job during one evening of signal drill. The scrubs had the varsity on the run in the opening part of the session but when the signals got to working more smoothly the first string squad had little difficulty in wading through the second string eleven for touchdowns. Girton at Fullback. Otrton, whpm Coach Mowe had been grooming for a line position, has been pulled back to the .fullback job and! ' Beck shifted to a half. This seem? to be thf best way for the Quakers to take the field against the strong Rose Foiy team Saturday. Further plans for the home-coming are being made by the college and advance news from old timers state that they will be on hand to see the Maroon and White try to take the measure of the down state representatives. LACK OF SUBSTITUTES HANDICAPS HIGH TEAM Hard work and plenty of scrimmage is the program that is being followed by Coach Null of the high school. He is giving his men plenty of stiff opposition and thinks that in this way they will be in much better shape for their scrap with Elkhart on Reid Field Saturday than they were against the fast Shortridge outfit last week. No changes in the lineup have been made and the same eleven that tackled the capital city team will do duty in the next game of the season. It is one of the weaknesses of the local J nign scnooi prospects that they do not have sufficient substitutes to run into a game. t'lenty of pep is still manifest around the high school and the fol lowers of the Red and White are sure that if their team has half the breaks in the game with Elkhart the score will be a reversal of last Saturday's defeat. Tonight Ends First Round In City Bowling League The end of the first round in the City Bowling League will be reached with the close of play Thursday night. Handicaps will be determined after the close of play. Maher's Meats have been leading the league a merry chase and will try to continue to do so when they stack up against the Feltman Tramps Thursday. Hill's Laddies will crack maples with Lee Tires, while the Wilson Cleaners take on the I. H. C. representatives. The players are beginning to' hit their stride and better games and closer scores are expected to result irom now to the close of the season PURDUE UNIVERSITY SEEKS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT (By Associated Press) LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. 14.
