ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY

h sssss''. ''''''s' q
Well. It finally happened After fool
ing around most of the summer and fall
with that original $500, Across the
Hoard shot It all on Thursday and today
woke mp broke. And the way it hap
pened is enough to cause the most hard
of heart to get out his handkerchief and
wipe away few crocodile tears.
We went broke by the margin of a
horses nose. In an effort to get back
into the running a $50 win parlay was
played on CyclOps and Big Blaze ON
Thursday. CyclOps won at odds of 3
4 to 1. but Big Blaze lost by inches. The
combination would have figured 1910.
Sniff Sniff Boot Hoo!
When a rich friend heard Of our pre-
dictament today he came to our rescue
and advanced us $500. The condition
he made was that we shoot the whole
works at once. He wanted to see some
action. Beggars cannot be choosers SC
the entire $500 will be put up today.
Here's how we are going to risk the
coin: $50 across on PANDER PETE in
on OH SUSANNA in the fifth at
Churchill; $50 win. place and show
parlay on the two mentioned: 500 win
CRurcliil. w That's short and to the
point.
This is the day that the
IL dopesters must put down
- their opinions in black and
white on Saturdays games, or for
ever holi their peace. 1t is easier
not to select the probable out
comes of the grid contests. We
will choose the harder way in
few games. There are four con-
tests between Big Ten rivals. This
is the way they look to us:
Iowa to defeat Wisconsin after
a hard battle.
Illinois to win by fairly large
score over Chicago unless the
MarOOns play above the form
showed SO far.
Michigan to win by decisive
margin over Northwestern.
Ohio State to defeat Indiana
U. by comfortable margin.
Here's something for the $50
ciety for the Prohibition Of Every
thing to investigate. Coach
zuppke Of Illinos gives his grid
players green tea. Tannin, which
is found in tea, must have a ter
ribIe wallop. We would like to
have some Of the old lady members
look this up.
T1 ONE Of these days Mime
- sofa is going to join the
Big Ten conference. The
Gophers have played only one
Western Conference football game
this fall, which resulted in a tie
with Wisconsin. Butler is the op
ponent on Saturday. The Swedes
have something to think about in
the last two games of the season
when Iowa and Michigan are met.
Red Grange will find the going
much tougher against Chicago.
Teams that have had some ex-
perience with the flash devise
means Of stopping his sensation
al dashes. Don't expect too
much of him this week.
II the latest reports from Iowa
are true and Kutsch will not be
able to play against Wisconsin
because Of injuries sustained in
practice, the Badgers have an out
} side chance to spoil the Howkeye
title hopes.
"A rOdeo was held last summer
in Grant Park stadium, Chicago.
III there are any lassOes lying
around which the wild west per-
formers forgot to take with them
Northwestern had better gather
them up for use ON Friedman,
M0lenda and Oosferbaan of
Michigan Saturday.
WO midgcts will direct the
attack Of the opposing elev'
ems when Franklin and Pur-
due clash at Lafayette on Satur-
day, Chaplin Of the Baptists never
strained any weighing machines
when he stepped on the scales.
The huge youth tips the beam at
around 1875 pounds. Smiley of the
Boilermakers pushes the dat up
around 143 pOunda.
