PHILADELPHIA Nov. civilian
T. Tilden, tennis champion, will lose
the upper portion of his middle finger
on his right hand from the distal
joint, DR.. W. B. Swartley, attending
physician, announced today.
THE terminal phalanax has be-
come gangrenous. The upper portion
Of the finger is very loose now anc
may drop off any day." the physician
stated.
Tilden's finger was scratched in a
recent tennis match when he collided
with a wire backstop while chasing a
line drive. He paid little attention to
the injury until the finger became
infected.
Losing the upper end Of the middle
finger Of his right hand from the dis
tai joint may not put an end to the
tennis stars career, according to his
doctors.
Tilden can now get a little motion
in the lower end Of the infected finger
and with time may be able to revolu-
tionize his grip on the racquet 30 as
to retain his championship hold.
Seven incisions have been made on
Tilden's finger and at the time Of the
operations the pressure was so great
as to cut off the blood supply.

PURDUE STAGES
REAL GOMEZ BACK
BoiIermakers Brace and Give
Wabash Terrific Battle
Notre Dame Plays to Form.
CASHIER SHINING STAR
Rose Puts Up Stubborn Defense
Against ButIer-Griggs
Fails to Kick.

The dope ran fairly true over the
week end as far as Indiana football
was concerned, although Butler was
expected to run up more of score
against Rose Poly and some fans
thought Wabash would be a bigger
winner over Purdue.
Purdue was the team to give the
best account of itself in the Saturday
battles. The Boilermakers, staging
q come back after their disastrous
beating at the hands Of Iowa, fought
every minute of the time against Wa
bash and lost by the narrowest mar
gin of one point, to 6. a blocked
punt in the last quarter proved the
Endoing of Phelan's team.
Duffin, substitute quarter for Wa
bash, kicked the ball over for the
point needed TO win after Knee had
plunged through the line for a touch
down.
Penalty Hurts Scarlet
A peculiar penalty came up at the
start of the second half Wabash was
not on the field when time was called
and received a penalty of twenty-five
this time that carried the ball over,
with Wellman making the final
plunge.
Butler used second-string men
against Rose and got a surprise at
the way the Engineers fought. There
we're no scores in the second half. The
final count was 70 to 0. Griggs tried
numerous place kicks. but could not
get the ball over. He missed five DIFF
ferent attempts at distances ranging
from twenty-five to fifty-flve yards.
Long runs were made by Northam
and Hungate. The Rose defense was
much better in the final half and But
Ter was held for down on several occa-
slams. Forsythe and Miller stood out
for Poly.
Cashier Day at \. u.
In the Notre Dame Homecoming
game with Indiana, Paul Cashier
PLAYED wonderful football. The versa
tile Irish star thrilled the huge crowd
with his marvellous work. He scored
all three touchdowns, kicked for point
after each. and booted two field
goals for a total Of q points. Indiana
was seldom dangerous on the attack
and made only three first downs.
The first half ended to in favor
OF Notre Dame. but Cashier was teeI'
ing lust right In the last half OF the
game and ran wild. He was ably as
sisted by Don Miller. Notre Dame
started a second string backheld and
ended up with numerous subs In tho
game. It was Cashiers day.
De PAW showed great strength
against Kenyon and from indications
Butler has a task on its hands next
Saturday when the M9thodists are
met on Irwin field The De PAW at
tack swept everything in its path and
KENYON failed to make one first down
through the line.
Earlham went over into Ohio TO
play Muskingum College and was de.
feated. 70 to 0. Hanover swamped
Oakland City College 66 to 0.
