FOOTBALL SHADES FALLING FAST,
STARS PASS into HISTORY SOON

Football shades for 1920 are fast
falling and another two weeks OF the
great fall sport will see the gridirons
deserted for the winter and stars OF
q season will have passed into history.
The greatest of college games has
forged rapidly to the fore in Indiana
during the past season, as has been
the case over virtually the whole coun-
try, and sport followers predict that
the Hoosier schools will assume the
place that naturally belongs to them in
pigskin circles within the next few
years.
Last Saturdays contests were moth
ing above the average as rule. Ad-
vance predictions held true in every
case on Hoosier soil, although not con-
fined to points.
Earlham's showing against the
strong Kalamazoo team furnished food
for thought for sport writer's, as the
local college demonstrated that they
have the stuff for high class COM
bination when they held the supposed
ly invincible Wolverines to point
lead, even outplaying them in the first
part of the game.
Notre Dame Strong.
Notre Dame had an easy time with
Purdue playing second rate men the
greater part of the contest. Gipp, the

Catholic star, helped his team to It's
easy victory. The Notre Dame crew
are now preparing for Indiana next
Saturday at Washington Park in In
dianapolis. This game is expected to
prove a much harder nut to crack
than the Boiler Makers. Indiana is
represented by one of the strongest
teams in it's history and Rockne recog-
nizes this, and will take no chances on
losing his claim to state honors. A
record crowd will probably witness the
contest in which Notre Dame will rule
a heavy favorite.
Purdue will jump into conference
competition again by journeying to
Evanston to battle Northwestern. This
should be a fairly even match, both
teams being slightly below the rest Of
the Big Ten representatives. Sad 20
relate the Purple has a slight advant-
age in the figuring.
Crack Wabash Team.
Wabash and Kalamazoo will lock
horns at Charlottesville in big home
coming game for the Little Giants. The
Wabash crew are supposed to have a
crack organization but will probably
need all they have to get any advant-
age over the Michigan school, which
is represented by a shifty orgariza-
! ton.
DePauw will take an off day Satur-
day in preparation for their big game
of the year with Wabash, in Indian
apolis on Nov. 20. This is the one
| feature event of the year for both
schools and every effort is made to
cop this contest.
Butler will play Rose Poly at Terre
Haute this week. This contest should
prove easy for the Pagemen as the
Rose Poly team is badly battered from
the last three games they have enter
ed. The Engineers have seemingly
failed to recover after their loss to

HICHENS IN NEW VENTURE.

LONDON, Nov. "a SWarthy Arab,
in his native costume, accompanied by
very dapper Englishman, was at
tracing considerable attention in
Long Acre when l happened to pass
through that thoroughfare the other
day. Taking a second glance at tbs
second of this queerly contrasted
twain, l recognized Robert Hichers.
l then recalled hearing that the auth
r-playwright had recently returned
from Algiers. where he had been iCr
some time for the purpose of collect

be staged at Drury Lane as soon as
PavlOva's season there comes to all
end.
London has had to wait long time
for THE Garden of Allah" which was
produced in New York in pre-war days.
The American production, supervised
by the author, was supposed to be the
last word in realism and "effects," but
at Drury Lane, where things are done
regardless, they hope to go it even
better. Arthur Collins, manager of
Drury Lane, accompanied Hchens TO
Biskra and the two collected scores
of native costumes, a bunch of cameis,
with Arabs to look after them, and
whole album of photographs.

Miami Team Crippled in
Game With Ohio Wesleyan

OXFORD, O.. Nov. 9.-Miami uni
versity's football team came out of
its contest with Ohio Wesleyan uni
versity Saturday in fairly good shape.
Big Mike Essig. who was switched
from left end to left halfback, was
knocked out, and it is doubtful wheth-
er he will be able to play again before
Thanksgiving. Dick Wolf, fast half
back who took Essig's place, had been
left out on account Of an injured knee.
He succeeded in playing three periods
without further injuries. also he sue
ceeded in making the only touchdown
in the game.
Miami is hard at work this week
getting ready for the last home game
of the season, which will be played
Saturday with Mt, Union college, of
Alliance. This. it is generally con-
coded, will be one of Miami's hardest
fights of the season.
Miami will close the season in Gin
innati on Thanksgiving morning play

HIGH SQUAD RESUMES
GRIND FOR GAME AT
DECATUR THIS News

High school pigskin chasers. resum-
ed their grind Monday evening in prep
aration for the coming contest with
Decatur high school at Decatur next
Saturday. The Nullmen are out with
a determination to win their two re-
naming contests of the year and are
going after the old oval with new
grit and determination.
The high school lads must be COM
plimented on the spirit they have
shown all this season. In spite of the
fact that at times there have not been
enough men out to make up two full
teams for scrimmage the squad has
worked out daily and put up a man
sized scrap against every opponent
they have gone against. No one can
accuse the local lads of Sinking their
duty and the high school owes them
considerable of debt
Dark Horse Contest.
Saturdays contest is dark horse"
in the dope column, little being known
of the upstate gridders. What little
inklings have come in state that they
are about the average weight but very
fast. This will be a handicap to the
Nullmen who are better match for a
slow team than they are for fast
outfit
The same lineup thathas been work
ing in virtually ali the games thus far
will probably be started next Satur-
day, Some minor changes may be
made but it is thought that this late in
the season the team will probably fin
ish out with the same lineup.
Good College Material.
Several of the high players are
stacking up to become good material
for college teams with the experience
they have gained in high school.
Greene, tackle, plays his position in
great style and very few gains are
made through his side of the line. He
is shifty and keeps bis eye on the ball
Clark and Loehr handle themselves in
their respective positions with more
confidence and better results each
time they take the field Loehr was
hitting the sIe against Newcastle with
telling effect until he was taken out
of the contest because of roughness.
Lehman improves.
Lehman has improved rapidly since
the opening of the season when he
and has come around into one of the
best backfield men Null has on his
squad even though he lacks consider
able in weight. His tackling was one
of the features of last Saturdays
contest.
If Null has sufficient men left over
from graduation for the nucleus for a
team next season an eleven worthy of
the entire city's support could almost
be assured.

MOVE COACHES SQUAD
OF AMERICAN LEGION

hard workout under the direction
OF Coach Move of Earlham was held
by the American Legion football team
on Reid field Monday evening. Con-
siderable time was spent at tackling
the dummy and running through for
nations. The Legioners are rapidly
rounding into form for their contest
and those next to the particulars are
expecting them to put up great fight
against the fast Indianapolis aggrega-
ton which will oppose them on Reid
field at Earlham next Thursday after
noon as d part Of the Armistice day
celebration.
A short and light scrimmage may
J be held Tuesday evening which will
end up the hard workouts previous to
the game. The eleven men who will
probably start the game are in good
condition and Captain Ashinger is

McMANUS
EARLHAM GRID TEAM
AWAITS LAST SCRAP:
CLASH WITH FRANKLIN

Earlham football candidates will be
given a complete lay-off for the great
er part of this week by Coaches Move
and Higgins. Only one more game
remains on the Quaker schedule, this
with Franklin college at Franklin,
Nov. 20. Reid field has been turned
over to the American Legion football
team to practice during the first part
of the week. Thursday their game
will be played at the college, and Fri
day will probably be the first day the
Quakers will don their moleskins to
begin their preparations for the clos
ing of the season.
Franklin has strong eleven and
Coach Move is anxious that his men
be in the best shape possible for the
game. He thinks that this can hest
be accomplished by lay-off. Dope
has the two teams about even, with
the local squad little in the lead.
Comparative scores might seem to run
the other way, Franklin having beaten
Rose Poly by larger score\than Earl
ham, and also scored more points
against Butler than the locals. In
spite of this those that have seen both
teams play seem to favor the Quakers,
if they can get into condition for the
contest.
Beasley, giant center, will be out of
the game. Just who will take his place
is matter Of conjecture. Gordon,
who has always played tackle seems
a likely candidate for the job. There
is little doubt but that his defensive
work would be exactly what is needed.
The knee that has kept him out of the
last few games would stand less
chance of being injured at center than
at his regular position. Russell, sub
center, may be g;"en the chance. He
is good scrapper but lacks weight
and experience.
Al Carter. quarterback, will be in
shape for the coming contest and will
pilot the team. His hand has knit
rapidly and the little quarter will be
in great shape for Franklin. The
ether members of the team will be in
good shape for the contest and hope
to give the Baptists real scrap if not
a drubbing when they meet them on
their home lot. Last years Earlham
victory is bothering the Baptists con-
siderably and they hope to get revenge
for the humiliation suffered here at
that time.

campaign in that country. A German
Mexican society was formed about two
years ago, with a separate branch in
Berlin. Last May it began to exhibit
to the public of that city films le-
presenting Mexican scenery, industries
and opportunities. =
This exhibition was accompanied by
lectures intended to show that Mexico
has attained high level of civil
cation, that it has a modern school
system and that it is encouraging in
dustrial development. Among other
things shown are airplanes built in
Mexico, large cotton mills, sugar plan
tations, paper factories and the like.
The general purpose seems to be 10

country.
