Meyer. the last years center, has
held down both his regular POSI-
tion, and the quarterback post, very
efficiently. He is q sure, rapid,
passer and q real mar on defense.
He is one of the heaviest on the
team, and therefore has a decided
advantage.
Captain Oliver Nichols holds down
the end job and he sure holds it.
He is a fiery leader. popping his
men up all the time. In the last
few games his tackiing has been
miraculous.
Hamacker and Myers. who hold
down the .nckle jobs are splendid
at their game. Hamacker Is the
plunginG type. while Myers is the
waiting type. nabbing his man
every time.
Kieireye. Friedman and J. Ball,
playing guards, back up the plays
efficiently. 1t has to be a pretty
good fullback to tear through them.
Their offensive work is a revelation
and a Joyous sight to watch.

With due respects to 10th the
Hammond Scatenas and the East
Chicago Gophers. I. as manager of
the Famous Chicagos, wish TO rec
tify this error in the minds of the
fans of both teams by stating that
the Famous Chicagos that faced
the Hammond Scatenas were In a

Of six OF their regular players. who

Professional Foot Ball a Menace
To Collegiate Sport Coaches of
Middle West to Discourage 1t

providing that "tampering with
players on college elevens shall not
be tolerated by this association"
The Notre Dame case is direct
violation OF this rule and a general
demand is being made Tor the BAN
ishment OF the team which was re-
sponsiblf for tempting the college
! players Rith money.
The Notre Dame case is not the
only one where the professionals
have suddAnly ended the career OF
promising amateurs. There have
been several Instances OF late years
where promis tg players have sud-
denly dropped }ut OF sight In more
than one of thAse cases professional
foot ball has bed IN the cause.
The unscrupulPus manager, realiz-
ing the value OF tSe prominent college
player, tempts hNn with money.
Many students wtSking their way,
through school and \hnding the gof
ing a little rough arcNsorely disturb
ed in mind when they RECEIVE offers
Of this kind. The temptation is great.
The professional gridiron game
would not come in for much 6riticism
if the promoters recruited their play
ers from those who have finished theirY
college careers.
The Notre Dame case has aroused
many OF the coaches in the middle
west and a movement is under way
to discourage the professional game.
The coach usually has much influ-
ence with his players and this inilu-
cncc will bc directed against the
practice OF players continuing their
gridiron activities after they have
graduated. q
