Friday, q to O. 1t will take a mighty
good dope artist TO figure out an advan-
tage for either team on the strength Of
these scores,
The Manual-Brazil game Friday, how
ever, should be a big factor In manu-
featuring dope for this battle, as Short
ridge holds a decisive win over that
eleven.
wabash, by virtue of its 81 to win
over Shortridge, stamps 1t as one Of the
best high school football elevens turned
out In Indiana in many day. Short
ridge, fresh from two victories by scores
of go to and IS to Q, was playing foot
bali that should cause trouble to the best
high school teams In the country, and
the fact that Wabash was able to beat
them so decisively speaks well for the
upstate aggregation.
Managers Of the Manual and Technical
football teams evidently have the wrong
impression regarding press arrangements,
nnd 1t would be a wise move If they
would communicate with the sports edi-
tors of the daily papers and gain some
valuable Information. 1t was the work
Of the press that restored the grid game
to the local calendar and 1t is the work
of the press that keeps the interest up
in the game Also the thousands Of
high school athletic followers who are
unable to attend all the contests LOOK
to the press for accounts Of the games.
Therefore, 1t Is necessary that certain
courtesies in the way of press tickets
be issued by the high school managers.
1t would be we'll for the team officials
to get together and clarity the situation n.

END NEXT FEAT URE ON LOCAL COLLEGE C
IN THE HIGH SCHOOL CAMPS

Tech VS.. Noblesville Friday at Irwin
Field and Manual VS.. Brazil Saturday at
Brazil Is the grid card for the local high
schools this week Shortridge does not
play until a week from Friday, meeting
Manual In the second game Of the city
series on that day.
The spirit and sportsmanship dis
played at the Manual-Tech game was Of
high order and 1t would seem that the
bitter lesson learned at so great an ex-
pense since the disastrous Manual Short
ridge game in 1907 has been learned for
good.
1t took about $40 worth of balloons
to carry of the Tech banner before the
game, but In the opinion of Tech rooters
1t was worth 1t,
The playing of Reichel, Manual center,
stamps him as one of the best high
school hnesmen In Indiana. Three times
he broke through the powerful Tech line
and downed Screes, Tech quarter. before
he could hand the ball to the back called
to carry it through.
Payne, Tech right end, who has been
the recipient of so much Tech praise this
season, WAS BADLY off form in the Mum
ua game, aitho 7gh late in the third
quarter he managed to snag q pass that
was good for thirty yards.
The Manual Shortridge game a week
from Friday, the first between these
schools since 1907, should be a corker.
Manual lost to Wabash, IS to o, and
Shortridge got beat by the same team
