- team this year If couple
of the sophomore players come
through as expected. The club,
however, meets a severe early sea-
son test at Illinois on Saturday
night against veteran outfit of
much class.
Coach Ruby at the Urbana
school has seven IT" men back.
Ex-captain Mauer, Captain Haines
and Martin have played two years.
It is reported that Mauers bum
leg which bothered him last year
is o. K. again.
Lipe, Daugherity, Reynolds and
Kassel played last season.
Daugherity and Kassel are foot
ball players Of more than ordinary
ability. Kassel was all-conference
selection at end on most Of the
Big Ten mythical elevens.
The Illini crew which tied with
I. u. for second place last year
looks better than ever with a
wealth Of material also available
from the sophomore players. No
doubt but that Butler has real
task ahead.
1t is the first game Of the sea-
son for Ruby's aggregation and
opens the season in Illinois new
gym which has seating capacity
Of 1000.
\ 1T Just can't be done, Red. You
7 can't play football every day and
satisfy the fans or yourself.
Along with the berries you sock
in the bank there are bound to
be plenty of razzberTies II you
don't deliver. And you CAN'T
deliver every day. This football
game is not like the ice business.
Jimmy PHELAN, Purdue
football coach, at the Elk
N hart Lions Club football
dinner said that he liked his foot
ball players tough-no drug store
cowboys for him. This will in
suit some of the present day
sheiks. They like to be thought
bad, bold men.
They don't know that it takes
more real nerve these days to DO
something than it does to hang
around a corner, shoot pool, chase
the ladies and Charleston. In
their eyes any one who works,
or studies and goes to bed at night
is a weakling. The sermon being
finished, we will now turn to page
157 in the green book. Every
body stand while we sing.
Tim MULLEN, the Chi
cagO promoter, was in
the city Wednesday and
signed up Merle Alte for the big
Christmas Fund show in Chicago
on Dec. 10. The opponent was
not named. The f1stic carnival
is an annual affair sponsored by
Chicago society leaders.
The bout is part of Merle's re-
ward for his showing against
Rychell in East Chicago last
week. Rychell, Chicago
favorite, also is on the card.
Rychell and Alte probably will
be matched again at some later
date in an East Chicago bout.
The Illinois-Butler basketball
game will be broadcast by WRM,
the University Of Illinois broad
casting station, on 273 meters
wave length. The "knothole"
story of the contest will be on the
lir starting at 7:27 p. m.
Bogoljubow, Tore, Ritz, Boga-
tyrtschulk, Loewenfisch, Gotthilf,
Saemisch, Chotimirsky, Subarew,
etc. This is not the linotype oper-
ator's fault-just list of some of
the chess masters who competed
In the tourney at Moscow won by
Bogoljubow. Celluloid fire-tongs
will be given to anyone who can
enunciate these tongue twisters
without denunciation.

E7RS. MALAPROP, who has
I'M been keeping herself scarce
lately. dropped in to see us
today and wanted to know how it
was that they played football at
the Polo Grounds. She thought we
were kidding her when the infor-
nation was impaired that in reali-
ty 1t was a baseball field.
She said she was glad that Wal
ter Johnson's great worth had been
reconciled and that he had been
elected into the presidency of the
American League. Wrong again,
but we let her go.
She wanted to know when the
all-American team was to antici-
pate in football game because
she wished to see those great In
formers.
Mrs. Malaprop is interested in
