EIevens in Con-
ference.

Chicago, Oct. 26.-With the elm.
ination OF Michigan. Minnesota and
Illinois. the race for the big Ten
foot ball championship tonight is
narrowed down to fight involving
Ohio State, Chicago and Wisconsin
the only undefeated elevens in the
conference, with indications point
ing strongly to another champion
ship triumph for the powerful Buck
eye squad.
The impressive 1873 victory Ohio
State scored over Michigan yester-
day-Ohio's first in the 10 years of
foot ball relations between the two
universities installed the Buckeyes
as strong favorites for the 1919 title,
although Chicago, as result of its
crushing Al to 0 defeat of North
western, is given serious champion
ship consideration. The undefeated
Wisconsin eleven with victories over
Northwestern and Illinois. is also
firmly established in the race and
will battle Ohio State for supremacy
November IS. The relative strength
OF Ohio and Chicago. however, will
not be brought to an actual test
this season as the teams Will not
meet. f..a
Perhaps the biggest upsets Satur-
day were the defeats of Minnesota
and Illinois. After being held al
most powerless for three periods,
Wisconsin unmasked a smashing Of
fensive that broke down the Illinois
line and paved the way for IA to
10 victory. ...,........

has died and bequeathed his various
holdings to this American soldier

possession of his Kingdom"
The sultan's fondness for Mclean
grew to such an extent that he ex-
pressed the wish of making him his
legal son. Mclean did not take this
seriously. The old man was sc.

DRAFT PROGRAM
FOR MEMORIAL
LEGISLATION

Following a movement instituted by
the Richmond Chamber Of Commerce
about a month ago, petitioning the
State Chamber Of Commerce to assist
, in securing proper legislation which
should aid each community of the
state in solving the financial problem
Of erecting some fitting memorial for
the world war soldiers, sailors and
marines, a statewide committee has
been appointed and legislation Is now
being drafted. A woman's committee
has been appointed, headed by Mrs
Anna Studebaker, Carlisle, chairman
of the State Council Of Defense, to CO.
operate with the mems division.
While the matter Of the memorial
committee was taken up at the elev-
enth annual convention OF the State
Chamber OF Commerce, held in Ander-
son, January Is and 16, and precipi-
tated spirit of animated discussion,
it was finally referred to further
committee hearing called for Indiana
polls January 2, at the Claypood ho-
tel. The state was widely represent
ed at this meeting, among those pres
ent being Mrs. NJ. F. Johnston, Of
Richmond
AS result OF the various views anu
wide discussion q committee was ap-
pointed as follows: Arthur Brady,
Anderson, Ind, chairman; Capt. H. S.
Norton, Gary: Joseph H. Mills. Rich
mond; Mrs B. W. Gillespie. Indiana
polls and Miss Margaret Holland, Vim
cennes. This committee was empow-
cred to redraft the bill under discus
sion and incorporate as nearly as pos
sible the suggestions received favor
ably at this meeting.
Mrs. johnson brought out the idea
that while We were building a memo
rial we should consider not only the
present uses but for the possibilities
OF the usefulness and the beauty of
such Memorial one hundred years
hence. She is chairman of the Rich
mond Art association and suggested
that in some way the supervision OF
an Art commission would aid in max
ing these memorials more beautiful.
She felt that the different public.spirit-
ed citizens might decide to make gifts
Of art or other memorial work for
the identifying of different parts Of
tho building.
