BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Nov. 6.-The out
look for the team at Indiana is at present a
subject for much speculation. Just what
the developments will be remains as yet
to be seen. 1t seems that there is, in the
first place, great lack of spirit among the
men. Since the Illinois game last Satur-
day the men have not gone TO their re-
spective places with snap and vigor, and
in the face of these conditions no great
game Is being put up against the scrubs.
One or two of the men are going little
slow in practice work owing to sore ears
and other slight injuries.
knight returned from Marion last night,
but will not be able to play his position of
full back until his knee, which was injured
i'm the Notre Dame game, is healed. He
will, however, be in trim for the Purdue
game, which is looked forward to as the
biggest game in the schedule. All prepare
tions possible will be made TO have the team
in good order for this battle. A training
table will be started this week for the men,
and they will lose no time in putting them
selves in the finest shape to go against the

strange admixture of Greek Catholicism.
mysticism and Tolstoyism. They practice
nonresistance and are anarchistic TO the
extent of believing organized government

and squad, too, has taken on increased
confidence. In the line-ups with the

siveness that characterizes contests be-
tween close rivals and Coach Best believes
he has a much better team to-day than on
last Saturday The victory over North
western had good effect generally on the
men. an influence which is believed will
cause itself to be felt in subsequent con-
tests. Yesterday Long John" Miller was
in uniform for the first time since the chi

injury he has been able to get back into

other end position. MacManus and Allen

the line may knock out the former. David
son undoubtedly will remain at center.
Osborne is a permanent fixture at quarter
back and gives promise of developing into
one of the best quarters Purdue has ever
known. He is very popular and the root
ers are enthusiastic in his support. Knapp.
Miles, Mills, Zimmerman still bid for half
backs position, with odds in favor OF
Knapp and Zimmerman. Kaylor Is a
tower of strength at full back and much
confidence Is reposed in him.
The contest with Green College next
Saturday is regarded as a light practice
game and there will be no attempt to run
up a big score, many of the best men re-
naming on the side lines. The Indiana
contest on the 18th is the next important
date.

stork at the house of Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur
w. Becker, of No. S002 Gerber avenue,
bearing a precious mite of a baby girl.
proved the biggest event that has happened
in the Becker family for seven score years.
But one other girl was born to the Becker
ancestry in the history of the family tree,
and even that birth, which Is supposed to
have occurred 40 years ago, is only men
toned in the family genealogy as the first
birth. The advent of little Miss Becker has
given hope to all members of the Becker
family. who have long since despaired of
having female issue. The father is the son
OF J. p Becker, who had four sons as the
fruit of his marriage, all of whom are
living. One of the sons. Charles III. Becker,

that this will be the result and he will
not be satisfied If Wabash does not make
at least forty points. The Wabash team
has had merely light practice this week
