In independent football circles
this weekend, II was the Heralds
who took the beating and the Ma
rooms who defeated their rivals.
The Evanston North Ends. who
have won o mid-western champion
ship or two, caught Bill Marshall's
Heralds on an on day. and gave
them a 6 to 0 defeat. The Detroit.
ers had several chances to score,
but lacked the punch with which
they usually crash through the
sturdiest of opposition. The North
Ends were well coached. and exhib-
tied some fine team play.
Making a touchdown and kicking
goal In each Of the final three quar-
tiers, the Maroons won an easy 81
to 0 victory over the Shelby Blues.
Maher, of course, made the major
ity OF touchdowns and Morarity

GRAND RAPIDS
AND CENTRAL
PREPARE FOR TILT

Detroit Central will 30 back to
fundamentals this week. While
Saginaw Eastern. the foe of the
coming Saturday, Is very weak
this year and IL not likely to give
Central even good scrimmage.
Coach Buss noted the fumbling that
married Saturdays fray with Mus
kegon and will give his boys q lot
of practice in clinging to the oval.
II Is not likely that there will be
q whole lot of scrimmase, however,
for Central was conditioned to the
minute for the Muskegon game, and
there 10 danger of the team going
stale. -
The next big game will be- with
Grand Rapids Central. This con-
test will be sta sed at Grindley field
week from Saturday. Grand Rap
ids does not seem to be as strong
as usual this year. but next Satur-
days game has been cancelled and
Coach Upton will spend the entire
two weeks in preparation for the
Detroit game. Upton can get lot
OF psychology into his coaching. and
he is certain to have lighting
crew to launch at the Bussites. II
Is doubtful II Grand Rapids pos
sesses the power to set It's attack
In motion against the Central line,
but the Detroiters are always promo
to over-conhdence, and Saturdays
victory will make this tendency all
the more pronounced.

Thurston, who Is conceded to be
the greatest Of American stage ma
gicians since the passing OF Kellar.
is appearing this week in the Ly-
ceum. with a series OF tricks and
illusions which prove startling, not
only TO youngsters but to the grown
ups as well. Anyone who believes
that a magicians appearance on the
stage is OF interest only to little
ones would have changed his opin-
ion had he seen the packed houses
which greeted Thurston at both per-
formances, Sunday.
There Is something about Thurs
tons offerings which makes you
leave the theater with a halfform-
ed opinion that you're going back
to see him again and again, until
you've solved the secret of some OF
his tricks. Then you think Of some
OF the things he does. and you real
ize. smilingly, that it's hopeless
task.
The Thurston program Is divided
into three acts. and the principal
feature Of the first one Is the part
I'm which the princess floats of her
couch into the atmosphere, appar-
emily under the influence OF Thur
