The little city of Kirklin has created
quite a stir Fl high school football cir
cles OF the State this fall by the great
record hung up by it's football team.
The hirklin eleven has kept It's slate
unmarried after many sti1 skirmishes
and II has expressed a desire to meet the
Emerson High School team of Gary to
settle the prep football supremacy Of the
State. Kirklin and Emerson are the
leading teams OF the State apparently,
for each has gone through without sur
fering defeat. Kirklin's most notable
victory was over the powerful Sheridan
eleven.
The town of Kirklin may be short on
population, but It certainly is long on
football talent. 1t has turned out many
stars for the college ranks in the past
and 1t evidently means to continue. All
the boys IN the high school are enthu-
siastic about football and this spirit is
great help to the coach This years
squad is long on numbers and the sec
Ond string players always filled the bill
when they were called In to fill the regu-
lars shoes. In a game Of State wide at
tentiOn staged at Frankfort last Satur-
day the hirklin youths decisively de-
feated the LOganspOrt eleven, "a TO @.
If 1t is possible to arrange a game.
grid fans Of the State would like nothing
better than to see Kirklin and Emerson
get together.

WABASH LEAVES
FOR MILWAUKEE
Little Giants Mean to Give
Powerful Marquette Plenty
of Opposition.

CHARLOTTESVILLE. Ind. Nov. %
The Wabash College grid squad departed
for Milwaukee today for the big clash
Thursday with the powerful Marquette
University eleven. With the exception
Of Meese, end, the Little Giants are in
good shape and hopeful Of upsetting the
dope, which is favOring Marquette. The
fact that the Milwaukee outfit is one Of
the heaviest in the West and that it held
Notre Dame to a 21-tO-7 score, probably
accounts for Coach Ryan's team being
the choice for victory by a number Of
the big city grid critics.
However, followers of Wabash believe
the men Of Vaughan are capable Of Civ
ing Marquette q terrific argument in the
Turkey day struggle, although the ma
Jority Of Scarlet supporters are well sat
isfied with the record the team has eStab-
lished to date, especially with that 22-to-0
beating handed De PAW last Saturday.
In HoOsier State games Wabash trimmed
Purdue Butler, Rose Poly and De PAW,
an achievement that has boosted Wabash
stock far above par in grid circles of
Indiana.
Following the Marquette game tho
Scarlet squad will disband and a number
Of the players win turn out for basket
bali, after enjoying a weu-deserved rest
for a short time.

HOPES GROWN
THREATENED IN
MATCH TONIGHT
Schaefer Has Chance to Grab
Balkline Cue HOnOrS in
Play-Off.
CHAMPION OFF STRIDE
HOW THEY STAND.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-Wnlie Hopes
supremacy in the balk-line billiards
world will be at stake and his title as
champion seriously threatened for the
first time tonight when he meets Jake
Schaefer IN q "play-off' game for top
honors in the 1872 balk-line champion
ship tournament here. Prizes aGgregat-
ing $500 also Will be involved in the
match, $1,000 going TO the winner.
Hoppe sustained his third defeat In
sixteen years at the hands OF Sehaefer
last night in the closing match Of the
regular tournament. 1t likewise was
the most decisive beating Hoppe has had
since he became prominent in the bill
Hards world. Schaefer won by a score
of 400 TO 20 in six innings.
Young Jake's father beat Hoppe In
1908 and KOji Yamada won by three
points in 1912.
Schaefer started suspiciously last
night, running up 192 IN the initial IN
ming, followed by lbs for the second.
Hoppe could not get going. The winner
also went out with a run Of 159 uni1n-
ished. The winner averaged 90 %,
while Hoppe had q high run OF 10 ana
an average Of 4 90.
In the preliminary match Morningstar
defeated Sutton by 400 to 123.
Both Schaefer and Hoppe have won nve
games and each has lost one. Hoppe ap-
peared TO be far below his usual form
last night and this led many TO believe
that Schaefer has a chance TO become the
champion in tOnights match.

season. The Navy looked great after the
Princeton game and still looks good. The
defeat Of the Middies by Penn State was
no disgrace for the Annapolis team, as
the 13-to-7 score indicted. Army looked
good in the Yale game. The Cadets
seemed to be a team Of surprising
strength. But along came Notre Dame
and swamped them, IS to 0, sending their
stock sliding down the tOboggan. How
ever, Army, like Harvard fights harder
against the one opponent than any other
team, and Coach Days boys may sur
