DOOLEY TO PLAY
IN GAME SUNDAY
Star End Will Have Bum Ankle
in Cast and Buck Up Against
Olympic Forces.

From present indications Keith
Dooley, star end of the Roche aggre-
CATION, will be in the lineup when the
Independents face the Moline Olym-
pics at Browning field next Sunday.
in a clash to determine the state
championship.
Dooley fractured an ankle in the tie
struggle at Island City park, two weeks
ago, and has since been navigating
with the aid of a crutch.
He has now discarded the artificial
prop and last night was out with the
team for practice. Although he took
no active part, he got a line on the
new plays which Lift is handing out,
and stated he would be in the Sunday
game sure.
Against the advice of his physicians,
he has decided to play, and the bum
ankle will be placed in a cast for the
battle.
Leon Lift last night set at rest all
talk concerning his being in the lineup
next Sunday, by uttering large and
decidedly negative No"
The Independents hoped to secure
his services for the Olympic game.
and, in fact, for the remainder of the
season. Last night Manager Roche
and Captain Robb put in Is minutes
of pleading with the ex-high school
Illinois star. Nothing doing, boys"
said Lift. 81 am not in condition now,
and wouldn't consider getting into the
game"
Roy Salzmann has a bad left pin
which is troubling him considerably,
and Manager Roche this morning fear
ed that the big boy would be out of
il Sunday. Should Bones" be lost for
the Sunday game, Smith. viii go in at
the vacant tackle position and Bach
will play the guard.
Coach Lift is drilling his men every
night this week in preparation for the
crucial struggle, and is confident that
his men will give a good account of
themselves. There is practically no
betting on the game, as the poor show
ing of the Olympics against the Illini
last Sunday threw an awful scare into
HartGell's ranks.

POKER PLAYERS BEWARE!
DON'T BET OVER $1,000

Washington, Nov. 12.-Bookmakers
lucky enough to win more than $4,000
a year will be compelled to file returns
under the new income tax law. Their
losses and exemptions may be charged
off and they must pay the assessment
on the balance. Betting on horse
races or on three of kind in a draw
game is not in violation of federal
statutes except in the District of Co
lumbia and the territories. So income
from that source looks just like any
other to the tax collectors.
