uLuI GRID TEAM
HAS HARD SEASON
TO FIGHT THROUGH

Urbana, Ill. Aug. 30.-That the
Illini are biting off a big chunk
is the admission of even the most
optimistic Illinois enthusiasts as
they glanced over the Orange and
Blue football card for this fall. 1t
is certain no conference team has
ever attempted harder schedule
and there are those who insist that
the program is the most difficult
ever undertaken by a Big Ten out
fit
The Illini open against Purdue

consin come to Illinois field Then
on Nov. 1 the Maroons invade the
local field for the annual home
coming battle.
Illinois expects it's alumni re
union to be the greatest in its his

service are all coming back to fan
over the great war. Heretofore

1914, when 1900 persons saw
"Slooey" ChapT1an's champions
win from Chicago.
Despite the decisive victory over

looking back to the upsets which
have featured Chicago Illinois
competition on the gridiron, will
hav no overconfidence.
On Nov. Zuppke will lead his
squad to Minneapolis for another
tussIe with the Gophers. Mime
sofa and Illinois have had a great
rivalry since the little coach took
hold at Illinois On the two oc-
casions Zuppke has invaded Nor
throp field he has brought home
the bacon, first in 1914 and again
in 1916. The Gophers won on Illi-
nois field in 1913 and 1917, and the
two teams fought to a tie for the
championship here in 1915
For the first time since 1905 Illi-I
nois and Michigan will meet in
football on Nov. Is on Illinois field.
If Ann Arbor correspondents con-
tinue to insinuate that Zuppke's
team of 1918 had "cold feet" re-
garding a Michigan post season
game. there is going to be unusual
interest
The final game for zuppke's
