Illinois, unbeaten Western Conference
football teams, will be called upon Sat
urday to defeat elevens of strength. If
these two great machines are to meet
pt Urban a on Nov. 20 to decide the Big
Ten chainuionsMn.
The Buckeyes appear to hare the
harder game, as they will clash with
Michigan at Columbus, while Illinois will
lake the field against the badly crippled
Maroon eleven. As several upsets already
have featured the Middle >\ est season,
surprises are possible on Saturday.
Michigan should give Ohio a great bat
tle. Coach Yost and his Michigan players
have entirelv recovered from the 7 to o
defeat bv Illinois and are bent on put
ting the Buckeyes out of the running
There is no getting away from the act
there are some good players on this
year's Michigan team, which is certain
to show improvement over the Illi. game.
On the othes- hand, Coach Wilee real
izes this -ame must be won. It is the
only contest standing between him and
the opportunity to meet Illinois for
the championship if Coach Zuppke*
eleven wins from Chicago and W iscon
sln. Ohio has a strong close and open
attack. It did not show to good ad
vantage against Chicago, but the known
ability of the Buckeye players is enough
to warrant the statement.
Illinois will take the field against Chi
cago on Stagg field a topheavy favorite.
The Orange and Blue aggregation U one
of the most versatile seen In the U est in
years It can play the close game Just
as effectives as the open, running stylo
combined with the forward pass. The
plavers have shown improvement with
every game and will be better against
Chicago than they were against Minne
sota and Michigan. . .
Coach Stagg has a task to develop a
team which will hold the down staters.
The loss of Cole and Crisler has rut two
big holes In the Maroon machine, and
other plavers must be coached to tak *
their places. The Maroon line should
hold its own with the Illinois forward
wall and it then wil! be up to the sec
ondary defense to break up Zuppke s ex
cellent forward pass attack.

take the Centre team out to the speed
way Friday morning in a drive around
the city. The schedule was for Centre

PURDUE DRILLS
FOR HARD TILT

Scanlon has turned his Purdue foot
ballers around and headed them for
George Oipp and the remainder of the
Notre Dame team. They will tangie
on Cartier field. South Bend, 'Saturday.
Yesterday the Hprdue combination
worked in the armory, Coach Scanlon
taking no chances on twisted ’ end
sprained Joints as a result of spills on
a soggy field. Although given a stiff
battle by Wabash Saturday, the Purdue
players came through the game without
anything more than minor bruises and
they will be In shape to put up their
beat game against the Irish.
Scanlon Is spending most of his time
this week in drilling his men to break
up Notre Dame's aerial play, and they
have been learning their lessons well
He also worked them In this style of
defense last week and the result was
that only one es Wabash's fifteen aerial
attempts worked right.
Meeker, who was injured in the Ohio
melee, was out for practice yesterday,
and will be ready to play at full In the
Saturday contest.
LARSON OUT OF
N. I). LINEUP

rest Monday afternoon. Preparations for
the Purdue game were to begin with n
bound today. Larson, center, had the
muscles of hiß stomlch torn in the West
Point struggle and will be out of the
game for an Indefinite period.
Considering the fierceness of the play,
the squad came through the battle in
good condition. George Glpp, half buck,
suffered minor bruises, but he will be
in first rate condition for the Boiler
makers.
VALPO CLEARS
SICK LIST
VALPARAISO, lud.. Nov 2.—Val

the word go. but they came through It In
good condition and should bo able to
trounce the Friday visitors.
Valpo will hold the weight advantage
In the coming tilt and will start out to
win .with straight football. Bradley
Valpo’s big full back, who was out of
the De Pauw game on account of In
juries received In the Notre Dame game,
will be ready for action against St. Louts

RICHMOND, Ind., Nov. 2.—The Earl
ham are losing no time in pre
paring for their clash with Michigan
Normal here Saturday. Despite a eon
■ stant drizzle and a sloppy field, the Earl
hamites ran through a snappy scrimmage
yesterday and were out for the same
thing this afternoon.
The Quakers will have had the benefit
of a two weeks' rest when they meet
Normal, having been idle since their
tough scrap with Butler at Indianapolis,

TIGER STOCK
IS SOARING
GREENCASTLE. Ind„ Nov. 2—lt
Ceutre College defeats the De Pauw foot
ball team at Washington Park, Indian
apolis, Saturday afternoon, it will not
be because of lack of practice and hard
work in preparation for the great tilt
on the part of the Tiger warriors.
Despite the rain and the mild, mem
bers of the De Pauw squad who did not
take part lu the Vaipo struggle lust Fri
day held a hard scrimmage on McKeen
field Monday afternoon. Meanwhile, the
Tiger regulars were perfecting weak
nesses which were disclosed in the Vaipo
contest. Coach Buss purposed to iron
out all Caws of the team, thus far dis
played, In Monday's practice before at
tempting any special work for the Centre
game.
During the remainder of the week.
Coach Knss intendeds to -send the Tiger
gridsters through some of the hardest
workouts they have had laid out to them
this season. Weather conditions will cut
no figure in this schedule. It Is said. All
practices will be held behind barred
gates during the week and for the re
mainder of the season.
Reputation, weight, and speed of the
Bluegrass super-scoring machine will
have no effect on the morale of the
Tigers, it Is predicted. Tiger strength
has been growing recently, as was shown
by the Vaipo game, and local fans see a
chance for their team to fight the Colonels
to a standstill. The De l‘aaw warriors
have both the weight and speed with
which to combat their finned opponents,
Saturday's game will bo the third con
test between the two schools in the last
four years. Do Pauw won the first, lost
tbe second and hope* to win the third.
Weaver, all-American choice lust sea
son, probably will have hts hands full
In dealing with ''Ted” Ogden, center and
(aptain of the De Pauw squad. These
two men met at the opposing pivot po
sitions in the l>e Pauw-Centre game last
year, and at that time Weaver confessed
that Ogden played the best game of any
wan he had ever opposed. Ogden was
selected nll-State center last year while
Weaver was picked as all American.
It will not pay the Centre crew to give
Galloping Galloway un open field. Gallo
way is widely recognised us an open
fleid runner, and he expects to be In the
Centre contest from start to finish to
help along with the good work. It was
Galloway who mule the on , !e kbk In
the Vaipo game which caused the North
erners to forfeit.
Butler Set to Beat
Franklin and Annex
Secondary Laurels
All Bulldogs in Great Shape
for Hattie—Fear Kings-
Oliver and Strohl.
Butler will meet Franklin Saturday at
Irwin field in u game that in all prob
ability will decide the final I. C. A. L.
championship. Butler haa a great chance
to beat the Baptist* and if It doe* and
event:.ally annex the I. C. A. I/, honors,
the achievement will be regarded ns one
of the most spectacular In the history
of college football In Indiana. And to
Pat Pago goes the lion's share of the
credit, for the Butler team of 191!) did
not win u single game.
That the Franklin game will be the
most crucial on the Butler card is tindls
putable and one of tbe greatest battles
In the history of the I. C. A. L. awaits
local fans whdo the two eleven* square
off for tbe kick-off. The shifts, trick
plays and general football strategy that
Pat Page is famous for Is expected to
be brought into play bv thy Butler eleven
for the first time this season,.
TEAMS HAVE
EVEN CHANCE.
The dope on this battle gives little
to choose bet wee h the two teams. Butler
holds a win over Hanover by a bigger
score than does Franklin, but the Bap
tists came right back with their -10 to \
win over Rose Poly Saturday. Earlhain
beat Rose. 7 to fl, and Butler Just man
aged to squeeze out a win over Karlhatn
by a 13 to 7 count. Butler beat Wil
mington by n bigger score than did
Franklin.
Neither eleven has lost an I. C. A. L
game this year. Butler has beaten Han
over and Earloani, while Thurber’s ag
gregation has whipped Hanover ami Rose
Poly.
Page was given an opportunity, by the
feeble resistance that Georgetown of
fered last Saturday, to save his regu
lars to a great extent, and the Blue and
White should go Into the game with
Franklin In the best condition they have
been in this year, and it will be a for
midable combination that will attempt
to keep the Butler L. A. L. slate
clin.
In Klngsollver, Franklin quarter. But
ler will confront an individual star who
ranks with the best in the Htnte and the
local play will have to be fashioned to
order for this man If his rushes are to be
stopped. A clever, shifty, all-round
player, and above all a man who uses his
head Is Klngsollver, and If the Butler
grldsters can get hi* number right at the
start they have a great cham-e to pull
down the houors. Klnltsollver also has
a dangerous too that will bear watching
whenever the Babtlsts get near the thirty
or forty-yard mark.
STROHL ALSO
IS GOOD MAN.
No less important than Klngsollver is
iilrohl, Franklin right end. This man,
a veteran of the Baptist squad, has been
playing a whiz of a game all year and
the success of the Thurber machine this
season can be traced largely to hltn. Ills
play will be ft big factor In Saturday’s
game.
Arrangements, are being made to care
for n large crowd and additional bleach
ers have been started on the south eqd
of the field. The crowd from advance
indications bids fair to oxcell the home
coming audience of the Earlhain game,
which was estimated as tho biggest
crowd that ever pushed Its way into the
Butler field.
Two De Pauw Specials
De I’anw folk* will inarm to In

RETURN SCRAP
PROBABLE FOR
JESS WILLARD
Eastern Reports Say Dempsey
Will Meet Giant After
Brennan Bout. *
FRENCHIE GEORGE NEXT
NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Before he meets
Georges Carpentier, the European two
title mnn. Jack Dempsey, world’s heavy
weight champion, will fight return en
gagements with Jess Willard and Knock
out Bill Brennan, according to rumors
here.
The Pempsev-Carpcntier match prob
ably will not take place until next spring
at the earliest. Some time this winter
Dempsey will give Jess YV lllard a_ crack
nt the title he took from the big Kansan
in Toledo, if plans of the promoters ma
toriallze.
Thu meeting with Brennan will pre- I
cede the Willard match. Dempsey signed j
to box Leo I*. Flynn’s man some time j
ago, but the thing was put off until after
election. It probably will be the first
real big Madison Square Garden match.
CUBAN TALK
BELIEVED MYTH.
The Wills id-Dempsey fight also will
take place at Madison Square, and will
be scheduled for fifteen rounds to a de-
I clslon. Despite the tnlk of Cuba, the
Dempsey-Carpentier match Is another j
Garden card, the promoters figuring that i
with prices at from $lO to S2OO per seat j
they can draw close to a million dollar
house.
If Dempsey beatß Carpentier tbe cham
pion will spend next summer touring
Europe. The possibilities of a return
match with the Frenchman on his na
tive heath are not being overlooked.
Aside from these little matters and mak
ing another moving picture. Dempsey Is
! not going to do a thing for the next few
months.
Os course, th? whole program is sub
ject to revision. Brennan. Willard or (
Carpentier may upset his plans in some 1
small detail. A loose punch In the Jaw :
can sometimes disturb the best laid i
schedule not u little. However. Dempsoy !
and his manager, Jack Kearns. have;
mapped out their itinerary with tremen
dous confidence.
WILLARD SAID
TO HE TRAINING.
Willard las been quietly training for'
a return engagement with Dempsey for
, some time. With tlm possible exception
\ of Wills and Carpentier. big Jess can
probably give Dempsey the J>e*t tight of
| the heavyweights now doing business.
I If Jess demonstrates that he can get
, into condition he wlfSJjave many follow
! er. including <o:ne of those who saw
! the battle at Toledo, when.-punch drunk
and leg weary, the giant from Pottawa
tomie slnggd Dempsey on the chin In
i the s-wond round in a manner that made
Jnck's fr.ends pause for an Instant lu
ttetr cheering.
j Jess tried to train himself for the To
j ledo tnssio. He was fat and jelly-legged,
l although condition really made no differ
\ ence lifter he got that pasting in the
j Cr,t round. Whether a man of Jess' age.
which must bo ground +O. can , very
really get into condition 1* a question.
Anyway, the tight ought to draw plenty
of mom-y, and It is no more than ring
! ethics for Dempsey to give the big fel
low a return match. Jefferies licked h!
inrlous opponents twice around for good
j measure.
Dempsey and K,-nrns are not Itkely to
: belittle Carpentier* ability In view of
| the fact that the match Is on, and they
would not want to damage its drawing
lower, but there Is no doubt they r„n
s ler Willard a more formidable man
than the Frenchman.

than tho twenty-yard line, but it was on
the offense that the locals showed the
most stuff. The backs were given clever
interference every time they took the ball
ami if the wet ball bad not caused u
few fumbles, the count would hnve been
much larger.
Hartnett, right half back of tho Ca
thedral team, was the bright star of
tbe contest and looks about as good as
any high school half back in the city.
Th's lad started the scoring for Ca
thedral lu tbe first, period when he In
tercepted a forward pass on Ft. Waynes
forty-yard line, ran over near the west
side line, where a strip of grass made
the going better, then tore through the
entire visiting team for a touchdown.
Late In the second period Hartnett
scored again on a neut criss-cross play,
cllpptng off twenty yards behind good
Interference.
The tlfird period ended the scoring
for Indianapolis when Hartnett broke
through the line on an off-tackle play
atid ran thirty-five yards, carrying two
members of the Ft. Wayne second Hue
of defense with him as he crossed the
goal.
Ft Way no scored a safety In the
final period when .Mooney, Indianapolis
quarter back, fumbled a punt which
rolled behind the goal line and was
tackled before he could bring tbe ball
out.
While the work of Hartnett woe efts

The High-Grade Winter Gasoline
It has an initial boiling point of 100 degrees Fah
renheit, or 40 degrees lower than that required
by U. S. Government specification.
Easy starting is a most desirable quality in a
gasoline for winter use. It conserves everything,
including time and disposition, not to men

ignition system..
Better switch over to Red C rown if you have not
been using it. It is the high-grade winter gasoline.
