GIPP, MIRACLE MAN PERFORMS SATURDAY IN CRIMSON BATTLE

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 12 Unless a blizzard breezes down from the north or all the bridges across White river fall down or something else terrible happens all of the 17,000 football fans who turned out last Saturday to see "Bo" McMillin, Centre's red haired gridiron luminary, will be back at Washington park again tomorrow for a glimpse of George Gipp. "miracle man" of the Notre Dame eleven.

Notre Dame versus Indiana is tne attraction advertised and a day in advance there are prospects of a lively skirmish. But the eyes of the fans will follow Gipp, whose performances throughout the season have put him in line for all-Ameriean honors when the experts pick their mythical teams. The Notre Dame-Indiana game is the headline attraction of the games on Hoosier gridirons tomorrow. Other contests of Indiana teams are as fol

lows: Northwestern and Purdue at Evanston. Rose Poly and Butler at Terre Haute. Indiana State Normal and Hanover at Hanover. Purdue Has Chance Purdue, bavin? lost the two conference games it has played this season, has an opportunity tomorrow to improve its standing. Northwestern has not displayed great strength and the Boiler Makers should have an even chance of scoring a victory over the Purple. Purdue's conference defeats came at the hands of Chicago and Ohio State, two strong teams. Northwestern has been defeated by Wisconsin, Indiana and Iowa but scored a victory over Minnesota. Purdue's showing against Northwestern will give a direct line on the relative strength of Purdue and Indiana, the Crimson having defeated Northwestern here 10 to 7. Wabash College is celebrating home-coming today with a game between the Little Giants and Kalamazoo Normal. This is the third invasion of Indiana by the Normalites. They defeated Earlham last Saturday but lost to Notre Dame early in the season. Butler, after playing all season on its own gridiron, will be out of town tomorrow playing Rose Poly at Terre Haute. The Engineers have been trailing this season, while Butler, under the inspiring leadership of Pat Page, has been hanging up a record. It will take some stiff fighting on the part of the Engineers to stop the onrush of Page's team. Indiana State Normal, which is taking its first football steps, this being its first year in the sport, will try its strength against Hanover.

Above: David Jayne Hill, left, and Senator Fall. Below: Ex-Governor Stokes, left, and Representative Nolan. i Recent discussions of the possibilities for cabinet positions in th Harding administration lay stress upon the possibility of the appointment of David Jayne Hill, former U. S. ambassador to Germany, at secretary of state, provided Senator Knox is offered the position and declines it. Representative Nolan of California now is mentioned as the favored one for secretary of labor. Senator Fall of New Mexico is one of the men considered for secretary of the interior because of his knowledge of the west. Former Governor Stokes of New Jersey is mentioned in connection with the naming of the secretary of commerce.

With a part of the varsity band, a procession was formed, and every fraternity house, as well as the freshman dormitories, was visited. Recruits wero easily secured, so when classes opened at 7:30 in the morning, about ninety per cent, of the student body wasn't on hand. The strikers received a lecture in chapel service, and were told that they would be required to make up the time lost.

Under the caption "The Unpaid Debt," the New York Times editorially depicts conditions that are ret. rehensible. Service men have not been treated so cruelly and thoughtlessly here, but Isolated cases of neglect have been discovered by officers of the Harry Ray post. The editorial of the Times follows: There has been a great dal of fine talk about "paying our debt" to the soldiers. How much performance is to be given to these easy promises? The people of three states are paying the debt by blithely voting indiscriminate bonuses, money that will be quickly and unproductively spent in many or most cases by the sound beneficiaries' and can only be a temporary dole to the disabled. For them permanent provision on a far-seeing plan must be made. Has it been made? What has the government done? There are three often interlapping, colliding, imperfect organs for the car-i of the disabled the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, the Public Health Service, the Federal Board for Vocational Training. With the best inten

tions the government does business in the lame and clumsy traditional gov ernment way. You go before this or that board to get. examined. When you present yourself for examination, you find thai

the board has decamped. In the course of time you are ground out of that board, only to be deposited, after much labor and correspondence and the unraveling of leagues of red tape, in another board. You are driven from pillar to post. Many men get disgusted with these everlasting circumnavigations of the Circumlocution office. They give up in disgust. A concrete case illustrates the remarkably efficient efforts of the how-not-to-doit Federal method. The law says that, if the illness. of a soldier cared for by the Vocational board was contracted in the service, the physicians of the. Public Health service shall examine the soldier and the Bureau of War Risk shall pay lotsuch medicines as he needs. If tho illness was not contracted in service, the Vocational board was in the habit

of paying for the medicines prescribed. It was the board's business to bring the boy or man into good, condition, and the medicines were necessary for his health. The controller of the treasury held a few weeks ago that

the Vocational board had no legal authority to pay for medical services, medicines, and so forth, for a soldier whose illness couldn't be traced in the service. So he wouldn't pay even the bills of hospitals, physicians and druggists, honestly contracted in reliance on the previous practice of the Vocational board. As if there were not red tape enough around the three arms of relief, the

Treasury haB to add some more. The toldier has only money enough for bare subsistence. He can't pay for his

medicine. The War Risk Bureau can t ' beron. N

See how we do it. This is from a let-t5on that Mrs. C. C.

pay because his illness can't be shown to have been contracted in the service. The Vocational Board can't pay because the Controller forbids. The soldier, whose health the government is supposed to be restoring, can go without the medicine. His health can grow worse. He can die. Thus do we fulfill our boasts about "paying our debt" to the soldiers broken in our defense. At Elbernon, N. J., today there are some twenty-five or thirty young fellows, all of whom have been discharged from the army though they are ruffering, and some of them incurably, from poison gas. To about half of them the government gives no pay, no help whatever. Unless their parents or relatives are well off enough to relieve them, they have no resource but charity. They are too ill to work. Probably most of them never can work. Sisters of Charity, ever true to their noble mission, are taking care of these poor boys. They have lost their health, some or most of them will probably lose their lives, for a grateful country, which leaves them to buffer and die. Private charity must

do what the generous government won't do. Charity patients, neglected 1

beggars that is what a gracious government has made of these youths who have thrown away health and life in its behalf. j
