night when A1 Mohr returned. The lanky
gunrd bad been a alck nan aince the game
with Drake Russell Smith, a likely se
lection for the other guard, will be avail

greatly. With Heilstrom as a probable
end Zuppke Is seeking another reserve
quarter back. Ghee is being tr ed out
Emu is certain to play tackle Saturday,
but Anderson and McCann are likely subs.
ANN ARBOR, Mleh„ Oct. 14.—The
Michigan varsity dr lied behind r?ba~ l
gates Wednesday afternoon In a practice
at which only the coaches and plavers
were present The varsity, with C'appon
and Goebel, ends; Ooetz and Wiemm,
tackles; Dunne and Wilson, guards; Vick,
center; Dunn, quarter back; L'sber and
Andrews, half backs, and Stekettee, full
back, spent the entire afternoon In a long
signal practice. The reservea also drilled
with the new signals. Secret practice will

lOWA CITY, lowa, Oct. 14.—-Coach
Jones drove the football eleven until
darkness last night. It was the last
hard workout on lowa fiield prior to
the battle with Illinois. The regulars
fought like demons against the heavier
freshmen team. The yearlings used Illi
nois plays, but with strengthened de
fense, thanks to Hawk scouting. The
first team offered an Impenetrable bnr
rier to the attack. When the varsity
took the ball two touchdowns were
scored in rapid succession. Aubrey
Devine dashed through the entire team
Land Captain Kelly slipped through the
kine for another.
Manual vs. Sheridan
in Scrap on Butler
Gridiron Tomorrow
Red and White Students Back
ing Team to Come Through
v With Win.
Although Manual, at present, stands
third !n the rating of the Indianapolis
High School football teams, having won
one game and lost two, the South Side
students have lost none of their pep and
are confident that their gridiron repre
sentatives will be sett r.g the pace for
Shortridge and Tech before the season
closes.
Wabash and Louisville, the two elev
ens that drew victories from the Red and
White, were strong teams. Marion, which
was defeated to the tune of a 14-to-0 score
lest Saturday bv the Mannalltes, was also
doped out as u strong eleven, but the
south side grldsters were too much so
them. However, the fact that it was
Marlon’s first plunge in the game for two
years creates a possible excuse for their
loss.
Tomorrow Coach Evans's warriors bat
tle the eleven from Sheridan on Irwin
field. Little is known about these hoys
save that they are usually ranked with
the best in the State. This does not
worry Coach Evans, however, as his men
have made rapid strides since the
Wabash game. The line, which showed
np rather poorly in the first game, has
undergone changes, the tackles and
guards being shifted. Another weakness
was the team’s seeming inability to
handle forward passes, but stiff prac
tice has lessened the danger of fumbles.
The backfleld, that has showed itself to
good advautago in previous gamesv has
not been changed.
And when the final whistle blows to
morrow Manual expects to be at the
long end of the score. •
Pirates at Marion
MARION, Ind.. Oct£,, 14.—The Pitts

POLITICAL SIDE
OF GAME NEXT
Fans to Watch for the Pro
posed Housecleaning.
By JACK VEIOCK.
International News Sports Editor.
NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—With the worlds
series out of the way baseball folk will
now turn to the political side of the
game.
In other years the baseball pulblie at
large did not take any especial Interest
la the wrangles and bickerings of the
magnates, but with the game due for a
housecleaning fandom is keenly interest
ed today.
The first concerted more on the part
of the small clique of baseball men who
have gone on record as favoring anew
controlling body for the game will come
next Monday.
A Joint meeting of the club owners of
the two major leagues has been called for
Chicago with the announced purpose of
finding a suitable substitute for the Na
tional Commission President John A..
Heydler of the National League, the own
ers of the two Chicago clubs. Pittsburgh
the two New York clubs and the two Bos
ton dubs are behind the movement.
It remains to be seen how much these
pioneers In proposed baseball reform will
be able to accomplish. That President
Ban Johnson of the American League
and certain of his colleagues will fight
the plan is considered a certainty, and
one well-informed baseball man who. for
obvious reasons, does not want to be
Identified, said that the magnates will
meet but they will do nothing radical.
It seems to be the opinion among ma
jor league owners that the scandal of
the 1919 world’s series will soon be for
gotten and that the old ship beebaU
can resume an even kee! by the coming
spring.
One thing which is expected to get
some real attention at the Chicago meet
ing Is the relations between the majors
and the minors. Ever since the minors
brought about the abrogation of the na
tional agreement there hat been frost
in the air and a good many leading
owners on both sides of the fence feel
that It is time for a get together meeting.
SHAKEUP RUMORED
AMONG MANAGERS
CHICAGO, Oct. 14. —When the joint
meeting of the American and National
Leagues is started in Chicago Monday,
plenty of real bast-baii news will be pop
ping. It Is known that several new lead
ers will be in the majors next season.
The American League alone may have
four new managers when the IK2I gong
sounds.
Trls Speaker, of course, will go back
to Cleveland. K'd Gleason Is coming bnck
to rebuild the White Sox. Clark Griffith
owns a big chunk of the Washington
stock arid quite naturally he will manage
the Nationals again, if he so desires. The
same holds good with Connie Mack In
Philadelphia.
Four American League clubs may have
new pilots next season—Detroit. St. Lou's.
Boston and New York. Hughey Jennings
has lost some of his popularity in De
troit. The fans want another lender, and
it is common talk in the Mlch'gan ritv
that Ty Cobb will sit in the plot house
next season.
Jmmy Purke made good in St, Loti's
with the Frowns and should be retained,
but they Jo .funny things in St. Louis,
and even now It Is whispered In the
Mound City that he will have a successor
next spring.
Edward Barrow is said to be through in
j Boston and Miller Huggins Is through in
I New York. Rumors have It that Wilbert
Robinson, who piloted the Brooklyn Na
! tlonals to two National league pennants
will lead the Yanks In 1921, but Robby
! has denied this. It’s a cinch, however,
! that he has been approached.
Will Fred Mitchell be retained as Cub
manager? That is a question that Is be
ing asked by Chicago fans. Cub officials
refuse to say.
McGrsw will remain with the Giants
Cactus Cravath probably will be retained
in Philadelphia. The Brooklyn situation
is doubtful, but George Gibson is sure
of his Job in Pittsburgh, as are Stallings
at Boston, Rickey at St. Louis and Pat
Moran at Cincinnati.
NO RECEPTION FOR LOSERS.*
NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—With character
istic indifference. New York received the
defeated Dodgers on their return from
Cleveland Wednesday aftrnoon.
When the players’ and reporters' spe
cial rolled Into the Pennsylvania statlou
there were less than a half dozen per
sons on hand to greet the team and these
were personal friends or relatives.

Will Go Abroad to
Try for Ascot Cup
WINDSOR, Ontario, Oct. 14.—Man-o’-
War, the greatest horse of the century,
probably will run in England. This won
derful piece of horseflesh may carry the
Glen Riddle colors In the Ascot Gold cup.
This is a race over the regular cup route,
two miles and a quarter, aud the winner
must be a real thoroughbred to stand the
gaff
The idea of sending Man-o’-War abroad
was discussed by Sam Riddle and the
party that came here to witness the
triumph of the great horse over Sir Bar
ton.
All but Riddle voted to send Man-o -
War across the sea. Finally he capitu
lated and then put the proposition up to
his trainer, Fenstel. The latter was will
ing. so it looks now as If the wonder
horse will seek new fields to display his
marvelous speed and energy.
The Ascot cup is run in July, so Man
o’-War wouldn’t leave here for several
months. While Kiddie dtscusses retir
ing Man-o’ War, he has such a strong
pride In bis pet that he ts anxious to
nare him enjoy further honor*. For that
reason alone the invasion of Britain by
this great horse ts next to certain.

Carpentier and Levinsky
By TAD.
NEW YORK Oct. 14.—As George
Cohan says, *’P. T. Birnum had the
right Idea. The more you trim a sucker,
the better he likes it.
New York and New Jersey saps paid
more than $300,000 to see Csrpentler. the
Frenchman, tip over an cid. foundered
boxer like Levlnsky, in four rounds.
Any guy who knows his right shoe
from Ms left could figure that -<grjeu
tier would win In a punch or two.
The Frenchman did. He had nothing
In front of him to fear. He could do
a* he pleased. The punching bag be
fore the Frenchman wasn't even lifelike.
It didn't bounce back worth a darn.
Carpentler had everything his own way
and showed his speed, his feinting ability,
hia footwork and his punch.
He did it well. we’lJ admit that.
But he didn't show us how he can
fight, because be had nothing to fight
with. There was no competition. Levln
sky went in to get the abort end and
that's Just what he got. lie knew he
was in for a licking, and he got that, too.

of Assistant Prosecutor George T. Vick
ers today.
"I think Carpentler dazed I.evlnsky in
the first round,” Vickers said. "He has
a punch thnt would kick over a mule.
I saw no Indications of a frarne-up. I

SAINTS’ HOPES
BADLY JARRED
Kelley’s Champs Prove Easy
for Balto Orioles.
ST. PAUL, Oct. 14.—Followers of Mike
Kelley’s champion Saints were "singing
the blues’’ today as a result of the de
feat handed their favorites by the Balti
more Orioles yesterday. The score w?s
6 to 5 and It was the fourth victory H-f
the International team In the Class AA
series.
The Eastern squad nnnexed three out of
four in Baltimore and then when the
clubs shifted the scene of hostilities to
this city Jack Dunn’s boys proceeded to
take another.
Now the Orioles need only one more
victory to prove their right to the minor
league championship and fans here are
about ready to concede the honor. Os
course, the Saints still have a forlorn
chance, but the task of winning four
straight seems rather hopelesn.
In the contest yesterday the police baa
to take a big part in the fracas when
the crowd kept yelping at the umpires.
Field Umpire Stockda'.e was the chief
target and he had to have escorts after
the game. Cushions were flying through
the air at a dizzy rate and many fans
got bumps tjjey were not looking for.
However, nothing serious was reported
and it is not believed that extra pre
cautions will be necessary when the
teams take the field in the next game
Friday.
Charlie Fla!!, veteran, started on the
mound for fr.c Association team yester
day and he received his bumps starting
in the ,third. Williams replaced Hall In
the seventh and Griner replaced Wil
liams. Big Dan did not last long how
ever because the Grices charged him
with using a fake delivery and he was
taken ont, Foster finishing. Bentley went
the enblre distance for Baltimore and
thereby won his third victory In the
series.
Not cnJy th* Saint pitching seems to
have cracked out the defense of the local
club Is giving way and Baltimore Is
right on the job ready to take ad
vantage of the openings. Score:

Emmelmann to Follow 150-
Pound Mcjt of Last Season
With Bigger Affair.
Plans are being completed by Wayne
Kmtnelmann of this city to determine
Indiana’s independent amateur basket
ball championship in a championship
way. Last February Emmelmann held i
a two-day tourney here on the Y. M,

basket-ball was dished ont by the play
ers who participated in the affair, which
was won by the Anderson Y. M, C. A,
quintet.
The tourney was known as the 150-
pound championship tourney and each
team which participated in the nveet was
required to meet age and weight re
strictions. Eighteen of the States lead
ing 150-pound squads participated, rep
resenting all parts of the State This
season the tourney will be opened to
every independent team in the State
rated as amateurs.
A drive will be made to get every
amateur Independent team in the State
to participate, and it is believed that at
least three hundred teams will be bat
tling this winter. Entry blanks for the
classic will be ready the early part
of November. . ,
The championship will be decided on
the same plan as the high school basket
ball championship is decided each sea
son. Twenty district meet* will be held
over the State, and the winners of these
meets will battle in the final tourney
here in February to decide the tale.
Teams, players or a vff one desiring in
formation concerning the affair, are re
quested to write Wayne Emmelmann, 219
