Aggressive Team at Purdue.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Sept. S.-Yesterday's
football practice at Stuart Field showed
the Purdue Varsity team to be strong and
aggressive, and rapidly rounding into old
time form. Varsity lined up as follows:
Left End, Minch: left tackle, Davidson;
left guard. Rebel; center, Emeis; right
guard. Miller; right tackle, Allen: right
end. Holm; quarter back. Leslie (captain);
left half back, Miles; right half back,
Mills; full back, Kaylor. The scrubs pre-
scented a strong line and held the varsity
for downs several times. Allen, the new
left tackle, Is a freshman from Blanchard,
Ia, and is one of the strongest candidates
in the squad for first team positions. He is
aggressive, sure-footed and rarely fails to
advance the ball when called on to do
so. In Allen and Davidson Purdue has
two of the surest and best ground gamers
ever in a varsity team, and IL the other
positions are filled with men as strong
Purdue will have a winning team. The old
men are all in good condition. Captain
Leslie in quarter backs position seems to
be in his proper place, as in that position
he can best run the team. Rebel and
Miller held the scrubs well, but Emeis
is weak at center and several times al
lowed the scrubs a loop hole. Kaylor, the
former NJ. I. III. 8. right guard, is show
ing up well at full back and will make
a strong bid for the position. There are
now fifty men in the squad.

Good Attendance at Hanover.

Special 10 the Indianapolis journal.
HANOVER. Ind, Sept. 1S.-College

His subject was Water; Its Forms and Its
Work." Previous to the lecture, President
Fisher introduced the new members of the
faculty, Profs Melcher and Hood, who were

An interesting feature of Hanover this

intense.
