ing in the football season the high
school championship of Indiana still
remains in doubt. There are a num-
Der of undefeated teams. Some Of
the prep school elevens have played
both good and bad football this fall,
and this makes the comparative score
route more uncertain than ever as
means Of determining the leading
teams.
In northern Indiana there are some
powerful and speedy elevens. Elmer
son Of Gary has won its games by
top-heavy. scores. On Nov. IS, Emer-
son High School viii play ElwOod.
The game is important. Coach Phil
lips plucky Elwood team has lost but
one contest this season. Sheridan
defeated EIwood in the first game Of
the year.
Since that time ElwoOd won from
Technical by a close score and piled
up top heavy scores against Peru and
NoblesviIle. Technical defeated Sher-
idan and weakened Sheridan's hold
on State championship hOnOrs. FL
wood viii be handicapped in its game
at Gary if East, star end, does not
recover from an injury received in
the game with Noblesville. Should
Elwood halt Emerson then the pick
ing Of a champion viii be easier.
Among the Undefeated
However, other teams have strong
claims TO first honors. Warsaw has
not been defeated and has one Of the
best eIevens that ever represented
that high school Decatur in north
eastern Indiana. also indicated. has
a powerful heavy team that seems to
he in class by itself in that part Of
the State.
Two games scheduled this week by
Indianapolis high schools are i'm
rortant Coach KingsOlver's Tech
meal High School team viii play
Kirkliu at the Technical athletic field
Friday. Kirzlin has made a good
record this year. However. Kirkin
does not appear as strong as last
season when that school was one Of
three to claim the Indiana State high
school football championship.
Manual Training High School has
played both good and bad football this
year. The early season games in
which Manual was tied by Wabash
High School and defeated by a to 0
score by Peru. made the followers Of
the Red and White team believe 1t was
q weak combination. Then Manual
showed d complete reversal OF form.
Il went TO Evansville and played
Central High School a tie game. the
score being 19 to 19.
Manual. since that game. beat Short
ridge but Manual did not play as good
a game against Shortrfdge as It did
against Central II. S. On Friday
Manual meets Greenfield at Green
field.
Richmond Meets Decatur
Richmond appears to he the strong
est Of the eastern Indiana high schools
and made q good impression on the
indianapolis football fans by defeat
ing Shortridge by a decisive score.
However, il must be remembered that
Sheridan defeated Richmond by a
oue-sided score Richmond has one
of its most important games when 1t
plays the indicated Decatur eleven
at Decatur, Friday, Nov. IT.
Cathedral High School and Short
ride meet Friday, Nov. "a. This game
viii have much bearing on the In
dianapOHs high school championship,
as Cathedral does not meet Manual

l. 60 &c
game with Technical, TO be played
Friday. Nov. Il. Technical and Man
ual meet Wednesday, Nov 20.
Jasonville has an indicated team.
JasonviIle has an open - G Satur-
day. Nov. IS It is just possible that
some Of the teams which claim State
hOnors might find a worthy opponent
in JasOnviIle.
While Cathedral Of Indianapolis
was able to defeat Wiley High School
of Terre Haute, still the Wiley team
is regarded as dangerous in the west
ern part Of the State.
Hopes to Play Warsaw
Central still has on its schedule
games with Wiley at Terre IIaute.
on Nov. Il; New. Albany, and also a

high school. The Central team Is
trying to schedule a game with the
indicated Warsaw eleven for
Thanksgiving day.
BickneH High School appeared
strong until last week BicknelI
played d O-to-O game Sept 80 with
Bloomfield and Bloomfield. while de-
feated by Technical played the east
end indianapolis school a close game.
BiCkneu played a 12-tO-12 tie with Lin
ton and Bicknen defeated Petersburg,
40 to o. Then Bicknen was defeated
last week by Pinceton II to 0, and il
must be remembered that Princeton
lost the week before TO Central Of
Evansville by a 46-tO-O score.
Garfield High School Of Terre Haute
is another team that is reported to be
strong. It begins to look as if the
high school State championship in
1922 must again be decided in the I'M
satisfactory way of comparing scores
and as a result at least four teams
will be claiming the honor three
weeks from the present time
