PURDUE AND

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Oct 26-Every
thing is hustle and hustle with the Pur-

Little Giants of Wabash come here Sat
urday for their annual tilt and 1t is
thought that one Of the toughest battles

their Chicago game and the Wabash Chi

the coming Tilt. The Chicago score over
Wabash was double that over Purdue
However, the Wabash combination looked
much better against Rose Saturday than
it has all year and there is chance. a
slight one, that the dope bucket will be
tossed about from pillar to post by the

BASEBALL JURY
HEARS GAMBLER
Rothstein Expected to Tell of
Certain Corruption.

CHICAGO, Oct 2G.-Important infor-
nation concerning alleged corruption of
major league baseball players by dis
honest gamblers was expected by the
grand jury here today from Arnold Roth
stein, wealthy New York gambler. and
Joe Gedeon, second baseman of the st.
Louis Browns. Both Rothstein and
Gedeon are in Chicago, waiting to
testify.
Rothstein has been mentioned rs one
of the gamblers said to have been ap-
preached by Abe AtteIl, former feather
weight champion. in an effort to induce
him to participate in the fixing" of
the 1919 worlds series. Officials here
are inclined TO believe that Rothstein
had no part IN the frame up" but be-
aid them to discover the real instigators
Or the plot.
Gedeon conferred with Assistant States
Attorney Replogle soon after his arrival
here and IS understood to have denied
any knowledge OF the 1919 scandal, al
though admitting that he won 5000 bet
ting on the Cincinnati Reds against the
White Sox.
Ii is believed that the grand Jury is
nearing the end of its investigation.
President Ban Johnson of the American
League announced Monday that an in
formal conference of the American League
club owners would be held this week to

Philip Ball. president of the st. Louis

ference with President johnson concern

Victory OUer EarIhdni Brings
Unlimited Stock of Conf
dence to Christians.

EIated over Saturdays victory over
Earlham, Butler followers are awaiting
the appearance OF the Georgetown Col
lege eleven on Irwin field next Satur-
day.
Although the result of Saturdays
game was entirely satisfactory and prop
erly fitting on such a homecoming oc-
casion, there were a number OF things
that showed up in the contest that Will
have to be done away with at once II
the Blue and White athletes expect to
continue their march to one OF the most
successful seasons in Butler history.
Chief Of these is the habit OF fumbling
the ball. Fumbles by Indiana lost to
Iowa, fumbles by Purdue lost to Chicago,
and fumbles by Butler almost lost to
Earlham and will be the means Of losing
to other teams unless remedied right
away.
The Butler aggregation came through in
great physical shape and should be In
top condition 20 take on the kentuckians
Saturday. Page has started his men
on one OF the hardest weeks OF prac-
tice OF the season I'm an attempt to
iron out the defects that came to light
Saturday. While little is known about
the strength OF the Georgetown eleven,
the contest has been regarded as one
of the most crucial on the Butler card
and the outcome win be watched with
interest by local followers.
After next Saturdays game only three
more contests Will remain on the Butler
schedule. Franklin will show at Irwin
field the following Saturday in a game
that In all probability viii determine
the final I. c. A. l.. leader. Following
this contest Page will take his men 10
Ierre Haute and send them against Rose
Poly In the only away from home game
OF the season for the local collegians.
Earlh1m holds a 7-to-6 win over the En-
gineers and, although the dope slightly
favors the locals, it Is bound to be n
mighty close and interesting scrap. Chi

Camp as Likely Spot

With the opening of the stove league
season in baseball the Indianapolis club
grabs off n seat in the inner circle by

and, according to a statement made by
Vice President Smith, efforts are under
way whereby the Indians will be taken
to San Antonio, Texas for their preim-
mary training for the next campaign
The New York Giants train in San
Antonio and the Tribe officials believe
1t would be a wise move to take the
Hoosiers there in order to get the benefit
of practice games with McGraw's athletes.
However, nothing definite has been done
other than to make inquiries. 1t Is
known, however, that Owner Smith will
agree to a long southern trip only if
all the regular players report. He says
the benefit of a training jaunt is lost
when a few Of the mainstay players re-
fuse to report until late or until the
squad returns from the Ssuth.
