The annual Wabash-De Pauw strug
gle holds the center of the stage Sat
urday at Irwin field. For several
years local grid fans, even though
not connected with the two colleges
in any way, have awaited with ex
pectation the ’yearly combat between
the two bitter rivals.
There Is always something doing
and the contest Saturday probably
will be no exception. Alumni of both
Institutions make the day one of the
high points of the year and enthu
siasm is always at a high pitch as
the traditional foes meet on the
gridiron.
The “students and a number of
townspeople from Greencastle and
Crawfordsville will get into the city
Saturday morning and parades and
music will start. Both delegations
will parade the downtown streets led
by their bands.
Both elevens took their final work
outs today, consisting of light signal
drills and warming-up stunts. Most
of the Wabash regulars will be back
in the game. Kip Kessler probably
will start at his guard position and
Stasand, who has been out with in
juries, will be at one end. Henke Is
still out and Hobson will fill his shoes.
Otherwise the team is in better trim
than at any time since the Purdue
game.
De Pauw -will be without the serv
ices of Liz Burton, the hard-hitting
full back, according Jo advices from
Greencastle. He was hurt in the Han
over game. The other members of
the squad are in fair shape.
Dope on the contest is in favor of
Wabash, but strange things happen
sometimes when two hot rivals tangle
on the gridiron, and the contest looks
to be a typical, hard-fought en
counter.

By Dick Anderson
IRWIN field will bo the scene of

year. Wabash and De Pauw will meet

just passing out for Indianapolis fans?
That’s a question.
No doubt there will probably be
several feature games played here
li-xt year. There should he more.
Situated as it is former students from
ail parts of the State can get here
easily. The majority of the games
of eaurse should be played at the re
spective schools, but as far as pos
sible every college In the State should
be seen in action in Indianapolis at
least one time during the season.
It will advance the sport and boost
the school.

Times Sport
Forum
‘Air* Your Views on Any
Athletic Subject in
This Column.
Times Sports Editor: I think the
try for point after touchdown in foot
ball could be eliminated without hin
dering the game In any way. It is
too much responsibility on one man.
Games are often won or lost on the
try for point. If the man designated
to try for the point falls in a tight
game he receives the whole burden
for losing. Is that fair? I don’t think
so. Many conditions enter into a suc
cessful place or drop kick. The lan3
never consider these in case a man
fails.
True it is elective which way the
point will bo contested for, but it
usually falls to one man.
Without it the game will be Just
as fast and interesting and one man
will not have to carry the burden of
defeat should he fail to deliver.
This Is one fan's view of the try
after point discussion. White your
view to the Times sport deportment.

STATE TITLE AT
STAKE IN BIG
BATTLESATiDAY
Warsaw and Emmerson High of
Gary Will Meet—Both
Undefeated.
By Timet Special
WARSAW, Ind., Nov. 24.—Warsaw
High School football team will play
Emerson high of Gary at Warsaw
Saturday. When these two undefeated
high school teams clash it Is be
lieved by most football fans that the
game will settle the State high school
gridiron championship.
Coach Frank E. Cash former Wa
bash College football player is coach
; Warsaw and he has a well bal
anced team, and only four men stand
out above the rest. The Warsaw team
is light, averaging 145 pounds. What
Coach Cash’s eleven lacks in weight
it makes up in speed. The line
charges fast, they block well and fol
low the ball.
The backfleld is speedy headed by
the fast Stamates. They tackle hard
and run good interference.
Stamates, quarter back, has played
four years and thinks and acts- foot
ball all the time. He weighs only one
hundred and thirty-five pounds and
stands five feet two. He Is a triple
threat man and does all well. He is
a remarkable open field runner and
goes wild on end runs. Having scored
twenty-one touch down3 this year
from running plays going all the way
from ten yards to the full length of
the field a couple of times.
He passes accurately and gets them
off quickly. He punts high spirals and
averages about thirty-five yards on
long kicks. He chooses his plays well
and runs his team in the best of rash
ion.
A Fast End
Stuart Stokes, right end. Is six feet
one and weighs about 175 pounds. He j
is the largest man on the team, is
fast and aggressive, a good blocker j
and a deadly tackier. It Is on catch- j
lug forward passes that he stands out. j
He has the “knack” of running full j
speed and pulling passes out of the j
air.
Rodgers, full back, weighs 155 j
pounds, is fast and has all the at- j
tributes of a football player. He |
backs up the line In fine style and \
solves the opposing plays well. Is i
a line plunger and can be depended
upon to get ground
Hill, right tackle, weighs 150 j
pounds, uses hie hands well on de
fense and Is a smashing tackle. He j
smothers plays before they start. All
but Hill have played four years.
Warsaw has played nine games this ;
year and had a strong team last year, j
only losing one game, 7 to 6. They j
piled up 271 to 19 points last year I
With this In mind they scheduled j
hard teams.
The record of the Warsaw team this j
season follows

By United Press
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 24.—Phila
delphia, called the “sleepy place” in
vaudeville jokes, was enjoying all the
thrills and excitement today of “Main
St.” on circus day. It has been years
since Philadelphia had an Army-Navy
game and the city was acting as
though it never before had provided
the battle ground for the annual
fracas between the cadets of West
Point and the midshipmen from An
napolis.
The Army Khaki and the Navy
Blue mingled in the crowds battling
for hotel accomodations and the colors
of the two institutions blazed from
all the shop windows. Blaze New
York had never done anything like
it for an Army-Navy game.
