STATE ELEVENS
END SCHEDULES
NOtre Dame, Wabash, Earl
ham, Franklin and ValpO
in Hard Games.

The 1921 Hoosier College grid season
was to come to a close today when four
Indiana elevens completed their sched'
ules with Turkey day games. The
Thanksgiving day program Included
Notre Dame and Michigan Aggies at
South Bend, Wabash and Marquette at
Milwaukee, Franklin and Earlham at
Richmond and ValpO and South Dakota
State at Gary, Ind. From n general In
diana viewpoint the first two contests
were the most outstanding, although the
game at Richm nd was expected to be one
Of the best of the year.
The performance of NOtre Dame ana
Wabash today was watched with intense
interest by grid followers in the State as
the two games furnished an ideal means
of regulating state standing by the com
parative score route. Marquette, the
Wabash opponent today, only last Satur-
day met Notre Dame and made the Iris irish
hustle to win ny a p to score. There
fore, the result If tOday's game will fur-
nish the best opportunity Of the season
for comparing the two out standing
teams in Indiana-Notre Dame ana wa
bash.
In the Notre Dame ggie contest rested
an opportunity of comparing Notre
Dame and Butler. Butler won from the
Aggies by a 3 to score several weeks *
ago. The Irish were overwhelming IA
vorites to win by top heavy score to-
day, but in the past the Aggies have
had habit of upsetting the dope en-
the annual meetings between the two
eevens by forcing the Notre Dame eleven
to step fast to carry away the honOrs.
Apparently evenly matched and each
armed with a good team, Franklin and
Earlham were to stack into each other
today in what promised to be one of the
most furiousIy and bitterly contested
struggles in the grid history OF the two
schools. Coaches Move and Nelp of
Earlham and Franklin, respectively, have
had their men pointed toward this con-
test since the initial practice of the sea-
son, and anything which either mentor
has been keeping up his sleeve through
out the season was to be brought into
play for this game.
Both Franklin and Earlham won from
Hanover by seven point margins. while
Franklin lost to Butler by % to 0
score and EarIham lost TO the same team
by a count ow 80 TO 7. According to
these scores the two elevens meeting to-
day were about evenly matched on dope.
Valpo was to wind up good season
by taking on worthy opponent in
South Dakota State. There is practi-
cally no means available OF comparing
the two elcvens. but the South Dakota
bunch is reputed to have one of the best
teams in that section.

SCHAEFER WINS
HOPES CROWN
Young Jake Unseats Cue
Champ by Great Display
of Billiards.
HOW THEY FINISHED.

CHICAGO, Nov. PA new champion
today sits upon the billiards throne that
Willie Hoppe has occupied for sixteen
years. jake Schaefer, whose father
helped him make billiard history more
than quarter of a century ago. is the
new 1872 balk-line billiards champion Of
the world.
Schaefer defeated Hoppe, 500 to 346 in
six innings in a match for the title. 1t
was the fourth time in sixteen years that
Hoppe has been champion that he has
lost a billiards game
The feat performed by Schaefer in de-
feating the mighty Hoppe two nights In
succession stamps the new champion as
a performer of exceptional merit Schae-
fer won from Hoppe night before last
in the closing match of the championship
tournament, thereby tieinG the tOurna-
ment and making last nights play of
necessary.
Hoppe played better billiards last night
than on the evening previous, when he
was beaten 400 to 90, but he played in
hard luck. After running 126 in the
fourth inning he miscued and Schaefer
came back with a run of $50. Hoppe then
ran A, when he again miscued and left
Schaefer with the balls close. The new
champion then took the title with 4 run
of A.
Hoppe will challenge Schaefer within
ten days, according to billiards rules.
and the new title-holder must defend
his crown before March %.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 24-Ahe charge
that professional gamblers of Atlanta
are casting a shadow over football in At
lanta, and that If 1t is not stopped 1t
may prove injurious, is made in a letter
sent to Atlanta by William z. Garrison,
graduate manager of the Rutgers foot
ball team, which was defeated by Georgia
Tech on Grant field here early in the
season by score of 4S to IA. Speaking of
thi sphase of the football situation in
Atlanta, he writes.
Last year when We were invited by
Tech to play we We're aware of the break
with Centre and Pittsburgh and the at
tending publicity it attracted. In addi-
ton we heard ugly rumOrs concerning
other conditions in Atlanta which made
us pause and think the situation over.
The game was scheduled on the advice
of some of our alumni, who assured us
from personal observation that Tech
was desirable opponent. The game
was therefore scheduled and prepared for
to the best of our ability.
BETTORS APPROACH

"Our squad had not been in Atlanta
an hour before a number OF people IN
terested in gambling on the result OF the
game sought our coaches, managers anu
This was a brand new experience Tor us.
Ugly rumors having to do with gambing
activities soon began to go the rounds,
and I confess that the atm SoI ere was was

Il know this situation exists In any
sport crowd, but seldom to this extent.
The press in Atlanta is naturally inter
ested in supporting and upholding the
fair name of the city. The greatest favor
newspapers can do Atlanta and Tech is
to use your powerful sporting page to
combat the gambling tendency on the
part of certain elements in your popula-

Harvard Captain Shows
Good Sportsmanship When
Touchdown Is Ruled Out

CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 2A-There were
many sportsmanlike happenings on the
football field at Cambridge last Saturday,
but none more noteworthy than the cpl
sOde that followed the Harvard touch
down which WAS called back because of
holding in the line. 1t was one of those
little Incidents which, unfortunately, are
not shared in by the spectators.
When the ball was brought back at the
insistence of Umpire Tom Thorp, several
Harvard players demanded TO know who
was holding. 1T was the man next TO
center on the short side" said ThOrp.
Tell me who he was and I'll tell you who
was holding.H Keith Kane, Harvard's
captain, had come up Just in time to hear
the officials words, and he promptly
said: Il was the man next TO center,
and you're right. 1 was holding. I'm
sorry, but it can't be helped now. What
will the penalty be-" When told that
IL would cost Harvard fifteen yards, Kama
said, in pleading voice: jDoes 1t have
to be as much as that?" 1t did, and
Harvard never got near enough again
TO restore those SIX points. But Harvard
won the game nevertheless.

A pittsburgh man writes to protest the
custom of certain colleges to furnish tut
ton and board free to the stars OF their
football team, and he asks me to write
an editorial on the subject that will either
uproot or adjust the evil. Pretty big un-

can expect from human nature. But that
