o................ :........... c
ACROSS The Board" had big day
last Saturday. In fact 1t was rather IA
remarkable day. Eleven horses we had
sssected went to the post and eight of
80 were winners. Two of the eight
were hooked up in parlays with losers.
Two parlays went over.

When Captain Had was scratched we

custom the $50 across the board parlay

withdrawn. but went on RhinOck. In
combination the money "rides' on what

loaned us the $500 and give him a ten
spot as interest. We may need him

After settling our debt we have
$621.8O.
There is only one track in operation
today. PimlicO. 1t is a very ordinary
card with not much class. The feature

some good ones out, however. BIG

r7 CCORDING to a Chicago
TAI paper Almquist, Minnesota
backfield flash, almost quit
the game at one time. He thought
he wasn't big enough and was
loosing too much weight in
practice. Butler would just as
soon have seen him quit. He
rambled against the local gridders
on Saturday.
Harold isn't a very proposes
name but two of the leading
scorers in the Big Ten have that
front handle. Everybody knows
Harold (ReO Grange and they also
may know Harold Shorty Aim
quist before the season is over.
Harold Almquist has now scored
one point more than Harold
Grange, 81 against Sc. Kutsch Of
Iowa leads the Western Confer
ence players with 49 and Benny
Friedman Of Michigan is second
with 43. Neither scored on Satur-
day. Kutsch didn't play and
Grange was stopped by the mud
and Chicago.
According to rumors drifting
over the seas Georges Carpenter
Is to come back to the United
States the latter part of this month
GNn December. Georges better
Whge his style this time and be
has stolen all the Frenchmans
perfume and gentle gentleman
stuff.
The Dartmouth traffic signal was
turned to go" all the way against
Cornell. The big Green" team
never noticed the red "Stop" sign
of Cornell. From here on i'm we'll
let the Dartmouth eleven ramble
along. We won't try to pick any
team to beat it. Oberlander throws
those passes too straight and true.
7T looks as though Butler
and Wabash can't break
the deadlock existing be
tween them on the football field.
After playing a 0 to tie with
Wabash on Irwin Field the locals
thought they might cause a few
arguments by holding Minnesota
to lower score than the Scarlet
had been able to do.
The Gophers defeated the Little
Giants, 80 to 6, earlier in the
season. On Saturday Butler lost
to the Swedes, 33 to Z. One can't
get any arguments started that
way.
That mud probably tasted like
(NEnbrosia, food of the Gods, to
~'Ambrosio of Illinois, who fell
on tumble back of the goal line
for the touchdown that beat Chi
cagO.
Among other strange happenings
of last Saturday was the per-
Torrance Of Grange, who lost
more yards than he gained. Truth
is much stranger than fiction, as
the old crack says. 1t was proved
many times last week.
We never knew mud had so
many names until Saturday. Writ
ers called the stuff everything
