INDIANA HANDICAPPED
BY INJURIES FOR FRAY Y1TH MICHIGAN AGGIES BIXXTMINGT01S. lad, Oct 25. The Indiana university football team -will digress from Big Ten competition this "week and take on the rejuvenated Michigan Aggie team. With many of ne varsity players on the hospital list as a result of Saturday's game with "Wisconsin. Coach Herron -will have to call upon several of his second string men to play Saturday. Captain Henny received a severe cut over his left eye and other minor Injuries hut will he In the game this we-ek. Butler, regular left guard, had his shoulder partially dislocated, and probably -will be out of the next game. Wilkins and Eberhart who alternated at lefl end against "Wisconsin last Saturday, also will be out of thre game. Other members of the squad were badly bruised and a week's time is considered harddly enough for the men to recuperate Coach Herron'a program for this week calls for five days of secret practice during which time he will put the men through many new plays and try to strengthen the weak places In both the backfield and the line. In the first half of the game, at Madison, the line showed much Improvement over the Minnesota playing and stopped the fast Wisconsin backs time after time. The only gains mad were by the aerial route against Indiana. The Indiana line - weakened in the second half of the game and Wsconsin made many long gains on off tackle plays and through center. To Be Hard Game. Judging from the game Saturday In which the Michigan Aggies defeated the heavier South Dakota team. 7 to 0, Indiana will not have an easy contest this week end. Prior to the Dakota game, the Michigan Aggies appeared to be rather weak; They were beaten by Wabash" 26 to 0, but after a thorough shakeup among his players, the coach of the Michigan Aggie aggregation haB shown that he has a team to be feared in the future. Following the game Saturday, Indiana will play the strong Notre Dame ttiam at South Bend, Nov. 4.. This is an annual gridiron battle, usually played at Indianapolis, which is known as the Hoosier gridiron classic. Indiana's home-coming game is Nov. 11, with the University of West Virginia, at Bloomlngton Two weeks later, on Nov. 25, the annual grudge battle be tween Purlue and Indiana yill be played at Lafayette. MISKE'S DEFEAT ROBS DEMPSEY OF OPPONENT NEW YORK, Oct. 25. Hope that Billy Miske, the St. Paul Heavyweight, had "come back" to the point where he had become a logical opponent for Jack Dempsey in a little contest, was exploded by Miske's showing against Tommy Gibsons, his fellow townsmen. Miske took such a beating and was so clearly outpointed that the decision which gave him a victory on a questionable foul meant not a thing to his credit. When he met Dempsey several years ago, Miske was not a well7 man. He was just recovering from a long illness and he was in no condition to take the punching that Dempsey gave him. He took things easy for a long time before getting back into the ring and when he did resume active operation again he came so fast and -looked so good that he was picked as a choice over Brennan and the other Dempsey victims for a chance at the title. . Ever since Dempsey knocked out Carpentier, it has been agreed that Harry Wills, the huge colored fighter, was the only one in the class who deserved a chance for the title. The more the other contenders mix around among themselves, the stronger that conviction becomes. Tommy Gibbons is a first class light heavyweight, perhaps the best in the American class, but he does not size up as a fit opponent for Dempsey. Hebis too "small and the handicap of over coming 20 pounds of the hardest hitting fighter in the ring is too much to ask of him. Dempsey-Wills Match Little more than a month ago talk of the Dempsey-Wills battle was the chief topic of conversation, but it has lapsed now to the point where it is seldom mentioned. This cannot be taken as a loss of interest in the prospective meeting of the two leaders of the heavyweight division. It is the result of information from responsible sources that the fight cannot be held until next summer and that increased agitation would throw impediments in the way. Joe Beckett, England's "Count of Ten." got back into the good graces of the British fight fans when he stopped Frank Moran, the ancient Mary Ann. Regardless of the fact that Moran is considered about a sixth rater in the United States, the British ringworms regard him as an American fighter and to Beckett they give all the palms for beating an American. N Battling Siki Hits Hard BeckeU's next big fight will be with Battlinsr Siki. the heavyweight champion of Europe and the conqueror of Georges Carpentier. Even though Siki is rated in this country as an accident, Beckett-will not be a cinch bet to win from the Senegalese fighter. Siki can hit and Joe doesn't like to be hit. Should Beckett get away from the orthodox method of hitting for the jaw, followed by. all European boxers, he onght to win from Siki. Carpentier tried to knock out the Battler with straight rights and left to the jaw and al Ihe got for his trouble was two broken hands. Two good licks "down stairs" might have won the fight for him.. t Reports from the other side quote Siki as having turned a new leaf upon which absinthe and wine are not entered. If he would get down to serious training and have some good instructor take hold of him, he might turn out to be a fair fighter. Unless Dempsey should happen to lose his mind, however, talk of Siki having a chance with the champion is silly. Children To Be Guests At College Grid Battle Children under 13 years old will be given free admission to the EarlhamHanover football game at Reid field next Saturday, according to an announcement made Wednesday. The guests will occuny seats at the east end of the field and will be under competent supervision.

Hampered by Blindness Herman Still Has Hopes
Br FBATf K G. ME.NKE Blindness has stricken Pete Herman, one-time king of all the bantams. " The sight of one eye is gone forever has been gone for more than two years. The other Is in such a condition now that Herman cannot see with it possibly never will ba able to see with it again. Yet Herman, with heavy bandages over his eyes, .lies in 'bed in an uptown hotel has lain there for weeks hoping, hoping and feeling confident that surgical skill again can r&Btore his vision to a point where he can return to ring warfare. But the hope seems barren. The doctors insist that if they can, in somo miraculous fashion, bring back sight to the better eye of the two, all their accomplishments perhaps would be set at naught, and Herman would be rendered totally blind by one solid punch to the optical region. Willing to Take Risk Herman listens to what they say and then, when the doctors have gone, he says: "1 guess they're right but if they can fix me up now I'd rsk total blindness for just one more smash at the title just, one and then never again. Win or lose I'd quit then--sure. It isn't the money I'd want to fight for. I'm in pretty good shape that way, I saved most of what I made and I guess I can take care of my family through the rest of my years, even if I don't earn a dime. ' "But I want to be champion again just once more. And I could be that if they'd fix up this eye that has a litle sight left in it. That's all I need to whip Joe Lynch just one eye. I did it once with one eye and I can do it again." Dreams of Victory There are times when Herman, as he rolls and tosses on his sick bed, drops into a troubled sleep and becomes a bit delirious. Then he imagines he is fighting again and the climax of every such fight is a knockout triumph for him over Lynch, the present bantam champ. At other times rational times Her man talks of the past "You know," he says, "I. have been fighting with only one eye for a good many years. I lost the other one in Philadelphia in an exhibition bout. The tin part of a glove lace cut me in that eye and ripped it. Doctors thought they could put me up but they didn't. The eye was gone. "But I kept the thing secret I didn't want to let my opponents know I had only one eye because I knew they'd slam away at the other and render me sightless as early as possible in the fight. Put Out Lights. "Sometimes that did happen. And when it did I'd usually put up a bad fight. That's why so many people wondered about me; couldn't understand how I'd fight like a world beater one night and a ham the next. "I lost the title to Joe Lynch because my good eye was punched up pretty early in that fight and I had to fight by instinct from then on. But Jimmy Wilde didn't reach that good eye and I knocked him overboard. Then I came back, got another fight with Lynch, kept the good eye well protected, beat up Joe, and got baok my title. "After that I fought Buff. The good eye was failing a bit even before that fight I couldn't see very clearly even with that, 'and I couldn't see at all out of the other. But I figured that even with half an. eye I could beat Buff. "But it was too great- a handicap, and Buff got the decision and the title, although a lot of spectators thought I won, anyway. "Later I fought Midget Smith. 1 Marlon, Ohio, Commands Attention In Football ITHACA, N. Y., Oct. 25. Harding, as president has been drawing considerable attention to Marion, Ohio, his home town, of late. But George Roberts Pfann, quarterback of the Cornell grid team, opines that the town can stand a little more fame without losing its several heads. So he is busy bringing more glory to it Gil Dobey, coaching wizard, has virtually built Cornell's aerial attack around Pfann. With the memory of Charley Barrett's gret work still fresh in their minds Cornell adherents believe Pfann will at least equal the great Charley before he ends his days at the institution. Which won't cause any hard feelings because Barrett, too, is an Ohioan. Pfann's good generalship was one of the brilliant features in Cornell's hard-earned victory over Colgate. Pfann handled the team with consummate skill and scored one of Cornell's two touchdowns.

LESS TILL THEY WIN was going along nicely for a few rounds. ' Then Midget caught me above the good eye, opened up a cut and the blood streamed down. I was almost totally blind from then on but I managed to stay the " 15 rounds. Smith beat me by long range fighting. He could see to hit me and I was blind "Some think my fighting days ara over. I don't agree with them yet. 1 may never be able to see again, but I don't look at it that way. I'm sure the 'docs' can fix me up and that I can get" another fight with Lynch. If I do I'll whip him sure." - But the chances are that the little New Orleans bootblack, who rose iu a few years to fame and greatness, and who smashed all ring records for little men by earning over $200,000 in a single year, has doffed the gloves forever. (Copyright 1921 By Kin Featnrea Syndicate, Inc.) Chips and Slips Just after closing hours one daj at the offices of Kuhn, Loeb and company, it was discovered that some very important papers had to be delivered to J. P. Morgan, of J. P. Morgan company, and that there was no one left in the establishment to deliver them except the negro porter. The impor tance of conveying the papers was so great that it was at last decided to immediately dispatch the negro on the errand. -Upon his arrival at Morgan's offices, Rastus explained that he must see J. P. Morgan of J. P. Morgan company, In person, on an important matter. He finally reached the big financier's exclusive retreat and asked if he was J. P. Morgan of J. P. Morgan company. . "I am," condescended Mr. Morgan, "and who are you that comes on such an important errand?" "Sur," replied the negro haughtily, 'Tse de coon of Kuhn, Loeb and company." Wabash and Butler colleges are working overtime in an effort to have the edge in the big game between the two schools at Indianapolis Saturday afternoon. Wabash should be able to win over the Butler aggregation by a narrow margin. The Little Giants tripped- Jage's men last year, 14 toO. i Chicago is working hard for its fracas with the Princeton eleven at the Windy City this Saturday. The Chicago win over the Tigers last year, has not been forgotten and this game is expected to be a great grid battle. Indiana university will tackle the Michigan Aggies Saturday at Bloomington. The Hoosier college eleven has a chance to defeat the Aggies in fine shape. "Get down to earth" is the appeal of all grid coaches battling with their material this year. Perhaps one of the most difficult tasks of a coach is to get his men to run low down with their heads ducked.

Georgia Tech's golden tornado is preparing steadily for its game here with Notre Dame the chief intersectional contest to be played in the south Saturday. Reports from South Bend indicate that Notre Dame will start on its southern trip tomorrow with practically all players in excellent physical condition. Despite the hard game with the heavy Navy team, all of the golden tornado players returned in good physical condition. Tech's aerial weakness was revealed by the sailors and the Tornado is preparing for a similar attack by Coach Rockne's eleven. Notre Dame is expected to arrive in Atlanta Friday noon and w-orkout on Grant field. Indications, are that the game will be witnessed by between 10,000 and 20,000 persons. Sarazen Narrowly Escapes Injury In Auto Accident (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Oct 25. Gene Sarazen, American open golf champion, had a narrow escape from serious injury last night when he made an unsuccessful effort to avoid running down Luke Robinson, an old resident of White Plains. Sarazen, who was discharged from the hospital nine days ago after a remarkably quick recovery from an appendicitis operation, ran" his car onto the sidewalk in trying to avoid Robinson who was knocked down and suffered a fractured skull and several broken ribs. Sarazen was parolled by Coroner Fitzgerald after eye witnesses had described the accident as unavoidable. The golfer was uninjured, although his machine was damaged slightly.

HOWE'S PLAYERS SET FOR HANOVER ELEVEN With the Butler game off their hands the Maroon and White is turning to the coming fray with Hanover on Raid Field next Saturday, Oct 28. It will Ife the Home-coming game and the Quakers are hoping : to score a win over the Ohio river eleven. Preparations are being made for a great day Saturday at the Quaker college and. a good game is expected as the Maspou and White will meet a team of nearer the same class than she did at Indianapolis. , . , ;. , : . ' - With, the -exception of Hatfield, full and Borden, center, Xtie Quakers came out of the capital city battle in good shape, although" all the men were bruised and sore as the result of having to hold up against at least three different line-ups. Hatfield has a bruised chest which will probably bother him for some time and Borden is out with a bad leg. Hatfield may be in shape to play next Saturday but Borden will not get into the game unless it is absolutely necessary. Coach Mowe has reliable men in Shumaker, Young and Radford to take the places of Hatfield and Borden: Both Shumaker and Young were in the game at full against Butler and Raiford went in for Borden when he was forced out " , Quakers In Shape. The men are net feeling badljt over their defeat at the hands of Butler last Saturday.' Although they would have welcomed a win they did not expect to' do more than was accomplished; In view of the fact that Butler beat - Illinois 10-7 and , Iowa, Big Ten champions and victor over Harvard, was held byJJlinois to a 8-7 lead and this won by a safety, the Quakers were fortunate. to come out as they did. Coach Mowe said, "we were out-weighed and out-classed In all departments of the game and nothing else could have been expected." Although not satisfied with every detail of the game Coach Mowe is well pleased with the playing of th men last Saturday. The men are sore and tired at present and this week work-outs will be comparatively light, allowing the men to rest up for Hanover. The fine physical condition of the Quakers was a feature of the Butler game. The fact that many of the men stayed jn practically the entire game against continual substitutions of fresh men by Page shows that Coach Mowe had the men in the best of condition. Evenly Matched. Next Saturday the Quakers will meet a team which is more nearly in their class. The strength of Hanover is unknown here but they are expected to put up a hard game. At the first of the season Rose Poly walked all over them. However they came back and held the strong Franklin bunch to a tie. Hanover did not play any one last Saturday so should be in fine shape for Earlham on Home-coming Day, Oct 28. Chess Champs To Play 18 Games For $5,000 fRy Associated Press) NEW YORK, Oct 25.
