peeial to the indianapolis Journal.

Special TO the Indianapoli Journal
BLOOMINGTON. Ind. Oct. 25.-It was
a bruised and battered lot OF men that left
Jordan Field last night after the hardest
weeks practice that an Indiana team has
ever experienced. The hard part of the
work was over. for to-night'f practice con-
sisted merely of running signals, and it Is
the Indiana team as ii now stands that will
win or lose to Purdue IN to-morrow's con-
test
This is the one great contest of the year
in Indiana football. For the last two years
Indiana has gone TO Lafayette on Thanks
giving day, and, as a sort of fitting climax
to the season, has there won the State
championship 1t is unfortunate for In
diana that the game this year is scheduled
for such an early date, for it finds the team
in the midst of practice work. and, while
it is not exactly crippled yet many of the
men are not in the best of shape. Foster,
the star quarter back and the general of
the team. has a bruised leg and has not
been in the practice since Tuesday. In the
event of his not being able to play Ayres
will take his place. Red Smith, the
brilliant right end, had muscle i'm his arm
torn in the game with Franklin and has
not played any this week, but he has prac-
tically recovered and will play tomorrow.
Captain Davidson. Darby, Coval and
Elfers are suffering from bruises, but none
of them is serious. Rucker has shown
signs of entertaining and was given a rest
last night.
But in spite of these conditions. the out
look is not at all discouraging, and Indiana
men believe Indiana will win, and are
willing to back their belief. The offense
has a force and dash about it that looks
good to the coaches. The men get i'm their
places in the interference quickly, and the
blocking is by no means gentle, while as
a line bucker Darby has proved the peer
of any man who ever played this position
at Indiana.
One of the peculiar features of the game
will be Davidson, the star tackle of the
Purdue team, playing against his brother,
Captain Davidson.
Indiana University will line up tomorrow
as follows: Rucker left end; Highley, left
tackle; Elfers, left guard; Markle center;
Railsback, right guard; Davidson, right
tackle; r. Smith, right end; Foster, quarter
back; Clevenger. left half; Coval, right
half; Darby, full back.

TO PERFECT TEAM WORK.
ShOrtridge Players Practiced Yester-
day for To-Day's Game.

For nearly two hours yesterday after
noon the players of the Shortridge High
School team practiced at Newly Oval for
the game to-day with Hanover College on
the Newly oval gridiron. Captain Dean
did not exact hard work from the players.
but he endeavored to perfect their team
work and gave them signal practice. The
players have shown increased speed in
their training since they met and defeated
Louisville last Saturday, and they are
greatly encouraged over their prospects
to make much better showing the
mainder of the season. The team will line
up practically the same as il did in last
Saturdays game with Louisville. TOlin
will probably play guard instead of Dugan.
The Wabash team defeated Hanover yes
terday by score of to ), and the Snort
ridge players believe they can send Han
over home with another defeat. The game
will be called at 2:30. Hanover will line
up the same as it did against Wabash.

Local Interest in the Game.

A great deal of interest is shown in this
city among the followers of the Purdue
and State University teams in the cham
pionship game to be played between the
two teams at Bloomington this afternoon
During the week there was a great deal of
Indiana money fiourished for bets on l. L.,
but when the discouraging reports were
sent out from Bloomington later in the
week telling OF the crippled condition of
the State University team the Indiana fol-
lowing took to shelter and the men who
wanted to bet. Purdue could find no
takers. \ merchant tailor on Monument
place had a roll that he wanted to bet on
Purdue but he could find no one who was
willing to take the Indiana end of the bet.
