FOOTBALL
NOW BOASTS
NEW BIC 4"
IN THE WEST
Chicago, Illinois, Wisconsin
and Purdue Stand at Top
in Conference Ranks After
Saturdays Conflicts on the
Gridiron.

Another Big Four" emerged from
Saturdays football battles to hold the
gridiron eye hypnotized to attention
during the next stage of the confer
ence championship fight Chicago,
Illinois. Purdue and Wisconsin were
the quartet of stellar performers, and
by the same token these institutions
may be considered the title leaders to
date.
Chicagos % to 6 victory over Iowa
at Marshall field and Illinois 81 to
score against Northwestern at Cham
paign give the Maroons and down.
staters more prestige than any other
Big Nine" teams, while to be-
tween Purdue and Wisconsin rushes
the Boilermakers in one fell swoop to
the conference heights as a real con-
tender. Northwestern's misfortune was
expected, as was 1owa's defeat
Minnesota's Z to 0 licking by Ne
braska at Lincoln was a bitter pill for
the Gopher fans. but 1t will have no re-
suit on the conference title race. while
Oberlin's 0 to tie with Ohio State was
only of local interest. Michigan's IL
to defeat by the Wolverine "Aggies''
was more important as 1t showed the
Maize and Blow on the downward path
and apparently in for another period
of humiliation.
The Chicago-Iowa and the Purdue
Wisconsin results must be considered
together, since Chicago plays Purdue
next Saturday at Marshall field in
what will be the first of the actual ma
jor championship battles. With both
teams in the race for blood, the loser
will be out of the running, and from
all Indications the fur will fly before
the affairs is finished The game
should be by all odds the classiest in
Maroon Boilermaker history.
The Maroons raised their ranking in
the Iowa game. Coach Stage feels
over its form in the Indiana game two
weeks ago. especially in the line. The
forward test was by no means thor
ough. however, as the Hawkeyes were
much lighter than the Midwayites. The
defense. which crumpled too much in
the Hoosier game, held CALAMITY at
critical stages, but will take lots of
tinkering with before it is prepared
for Purdue.
The game practically settled the line
UP question. After Russells steady
work, none of his rivals has half a
chance of beating him out of his Job.
Pete" is now a Maroon hero for good
and all. and Norgren, Gray and Pierce
are just as much fixtures in the other
back field positions. They will be kept
new tricks to spring on Purdue next
Saturday.

FIRE DESTROYS
HARVE DE GRACE
RACING PLANT

Baltimore, Oct. 20.-Racing in Mary
land for 1913 will terminate with the
Pimlico meeting on November 10.
There was a two weeks fair meeting
to be held at Havre de Grace, but the
burning up of the magnificent club
house. grand stand and betting ring
early this morning forced the promot-
ers of the late meeting to announce to-
day that the racing dates would be
abandoned. The fire was the second
that has occurred at Havre de Grace
this year and it is believed to be the
work of incendiaries.
The loss. is estimated at 5000. 900,
and whether Eddie Burke and his assoc
ciates will rebuild on the former Law
ish scale is a matter OF conjecture.
with late fall meetings in New York
next season it Is a good bet that the
season at Havre de Grace will not be
as profitable as this season and to re-
build will necessarily mean the outlay
OF much money.
Burke and his associates cleaned up
$4,000 this year. but they had no
opposition in the spring and very lit
tie in the fall Next year will be en-
tirely different.

doubtless would have been more than
doubled AS 1T was the boys took in
enough cash to pay the bills to the
next town at least, and they gave the
fans a swell game of ball for their
money, too. The Giants came out vic
torious with a ninth inning clouting
festival that netted two runs and made
the final count to 1,
Because of the chills the fans were
glad to see somebody win in the NINTH
for there was no joy in anticipating an
extra inning combat with nothing at
stake.

SHOWING AGAINST
THE GADGERS GIVES
PURDUE CONFIDENCE

Lafayette, Ind, Oct 2o.-Purdue's
splendid showing in the Wisconsin
game Saturday makes the Boilermak-
ers optimistic in estimating their
chances against Chicago next Satur-
day.
The Purdue men went through the
Wisconsin game without a scratch
The work of Oliphant, Glossop and
Blocker was remarkable. Blocker, a
new tackle, outplayed the great But
Ter, Wisconsin's all American forward.
Glossop in defense was tower of
strength. Oiiphant was the star In Of
fensive plays, and gained more ground
than all the Badger backs together.
Purdue. with better luck, would have
scored at least one more touchoow
Three times the Boilermakers were
close to the visitors goal, but fun
bles and penalties prevented scoring.
Purdue's goal was threatened only
once. and that was when the visitors
made their lone touchdown.

been the progenitor of the elephant.
These remains were found in a
stratum of sand and mari which was
once an old sea floor. AS no remains
Of the mastodonS have heretofore been
found in this region, It is supposed
that the dead body of the monster was

the ice drift Of the great glacial epoch
and dropped on the bottom Of the sea
that then covered all this tidewater

near where the tooth and vertebrae
were found, but the great depth at
which they were discovered precluded
any extended search for them.
The discovery of these remarkable
remains has created much interest
here, and many persons are coming
