Hid Gleason Says 1t Was the Sox
Who Were Victims Of the
Enforced Idleness.

Chicago. Oct. 6.-Rank, dank
weather yesterday kept somebody
from winning a ball game. w. Kid
Gleason declared it was the White
Sox who were drowned out Of a
victory and P. Joseph Moran was
equally certain the Reds would
have won if Comiskey park had
been fit to play on.
However that may be, the
worlds series was hopelessly lick
ed by the weather bureau and the
whole schedule was showed ahead
a notch. Yesterdays game will be
played here yesterday and today's
game will be played in Cincinnati
tomorrow. Whether or not there
will be any day after tomorrow in
the series rests with 9Ie White Sox.
They declare there will be several
days after tomorrow and that the
ultimate score by games in the
worlds series of 1919 will be five
to three in Chicago's favor.
Perplexed patrons besieged the
White Sox ball park between show

ment meant and tried to collect on
the rain checks attached to their
tickets for the third Chicago game.
AS rapidly and courteously as pos
sible they were informed that their
tickets we're good for the third
game in Chicago-the fifth of the
series-whenever it was played.
The departure OF the rival teams
and their supporters for Cincinnati,
which was booked for several
roads and several special trains,
will be deferred until tonight. and
if conditions do not improve it will
be delayed another day.
Call on Game Early.
Comiskey park, in spite of its de
luxe drainage. was bEow food tide
yesterday morning. and after TAX
ing a look at it the quartet of UNI
pires called off the game as early
as 1920 The arbitrators had the
final decision in this case. because
the rules governing the worlds Sc
ries give il to them instead of leav-
ing it up to the home club to say
whether or not the grounds are fit.
as is the practice in the regular
season.
The conditions were so bad that
neither team donned a uniform, but
the rival players spent the day in
doors or under raincoats.

Coach Swedberg's Aggregation OF
Veterans are Held to 6 to
6 Score Saturday.
Especial to The Argus)

bloomington, Oct. 6.-Close to
500 hundred persons Witnessed
the twin football attraction at
Wilder field, Saturday afternoon
and saw two splendid, hard fought
exhibitions of football, Wesleyan
and Augustana battling TO a to
tie, the result Of field goals.
The college clash was lulu, and
produced two stgoug elevens, both
of whom should make a bid for
Little Nineteen" hOnors.
Augustana has a strong, vet
eran team and Wesleyan support
ers on the whole are well satisfied
with an even break, although the
Rock Island collegians were 'tA -
ceptionally fortunate to get away
with a tie score, Anderson's final
field goal being made in the last
second of play.
Captain ROhWer Stars.
Captain Clarence Rohwer's won
derful field goal kicking was the
chief factor in giving Wesleyan
an even break with the heavy
Swedes.
Rohwer. a Moline boy, kicked
one of his goals from the % yard
line, and the second effort was a
beauty from the 40 yard line. His
punting was also high class.
Wesleyan's backfield worked
we'll, Strange. Stackey, Abrams
and Martin working together nicely
for their first game. Zook at ePn

FORWARD PASS
WILL BE USED
TO ADVANTAGE
Saturday Games Among Colleges
and Universities Indicate En-
plOyment of Method.

Chicago, Oct. 6.-That hard, con-
centrated attacks on and off the
tackles, varied by frequent use of
the forward pass, will be employed
by big teams throughout the coun-
try this fall, was shown with the
playing of last Saturdays football
games. These contests were feat
ured by the defeat of Indiana by
Center College of Kentucky, IL TO
3, and Purdue's 14-l4 tie score with
Franklin, in the west, and the gen
eral improvement of the leading
eastern elevens.
In practically every game, either
hard concentrated or running at
tacks were used to gain ground on
the first two or three downs. When
the secondary defense had been
drawn up to reinforce the forward
wall. the forward pass was used
to make the secondary players re-
turn to their normal defensive po-
sitionS.
Fumbling Evil Present.
Fumbling marred a number of
the contests, but this is to be ex
pected at this time of the year. The
players have not yet become accu7-
toned to the hard tackling and in
reference which is going to be one
of the striking features of the sea-
son, and they have not yet learned
the all important thing: to hang
on to the ball regardless of what
ever else happens.
The fact must be taken into con-
c fdnrnffnn nEarfiaaITar
team will be composed of one or
more players who faced danger on
foreign battle fields. They have for
gotten the meaning of the word
fear, and still retain some of that
exceptional vigor of attack taught
by war. Other players become i'm
bued with the same spirit and any
warrior who f1inches in the pinches
will not be welcome in any camp.
Indiana's Defeat an Upset.
Indiana and Purdue are the first
of the conference elevens to be
given only slight chances of max
ing creditable showings in the Big
Ten race. The HOLSTERS defeat by
the Kentucky college in the last
two minutes of play never should
have happened. Indiana led by
three points two minutes before the
end of the game and should have
played a safe game. Purdue did
not show anything against Frank
lin to warrant its being considered
a strong aggregation, although the
fact is taken into consideration a
number OF the regulars were Grip
pied.
In striking contrast to the caliber
Of football played by Indiana and
Purdue was the hard. steady, and
sure play of Iowa. Michigan, Ohio
State, Minnesota and Wisconsin,
the other conference teams which
went into action and won their
games decisively. Faults expected
at this time of the season were
shown, but these will be corrected
before the big games are played.
Iowa Turns on COrnhuskers.
Iowa won a we'll reserved victory
over Nebraska, IS to 0, in a game
which shows the Hawkeyes will be
just as strong as last season, when
they lost but one conference game.
Although the game was played on
a muddy field, Iowa played the
right sort of football under the
and now will set sail
for the Illinois game at Urbana Oh
Oct. Is. The Hawkeyes have no
game scheduled next Saturday.

Davenport accuses Moline of

The result is that considerable

FARMERS UP TO EMERGENCY
What They Did to Win the War and
Save World From Starvation
Told by Houston.

Washington, Dec. Elm his annual
report, issued this afternoon, Secretary
of Agriculture Houston tells in a brief
way how the farmers of America
helped to win the war and are saving
the world from starvation by marvel
ously increased production of food
stuffs. He says the wheat crop for
1919 is estimated at million bushels
over that of 1918 and that of corn 3O0,-
100000 bushels over the last years
In meat production, also, the record
figure of last year will be exceeded,
and the same is probably true of milk,
eggs and poultry. Crop yields per
acre, says Mr.. Houston, show an up
ward tendency, due largely to better
methods and better machinery
Among other recommendations made
by the secretary are: The building up
of a system of personal credit unions !;
expansion Of existing facilities and
activities for aiding farmers in mar
keting; continuation of present policy
Of federal participation in road build
ing; regulation and control of stock
yards and packinghouses; protection
Of consumers against misbranded and
adulterated feeds and fertilizers and
