At this time Emerson and Misha-
waka, with three victories each,
have 1000 percentages and an equal
claim to the title Of the Indiana high
school Big Ten title. A cup will be
awarded each Of them at the an
nual meeting here Dec. II at the
Indianapolis Athletic Club.

claims to the title and announce

blesville are two other undefeated
teams. Their victories are not as
impressive, however, as those of
the northern and southern teams.
This is the way the manipulators
of the dope tell 1t to you. Misha-
waka barely nosed out one-point
victory, Z to 6, over South Bend.
Surely 20 to defeat handed them
by Emerson places the Gary club
higher on the comparative score
basis than Mishawaka.
South Bend travelled to the far
south corner of the State and de-
feated Central Of Evansville, 13 to 0,
making them much stronger than
Central.
In the South
Jasonville defeated Reitz High of
Evansville overwhelmingly, but last
Saturday along came Central and
turned a similar trick, which leads
the dopesters to believe Central and
Jasonville are about even in
strength; South Bend stronger than
both. Mishawaka 'even with South
Bend, with Emerson towering above
them both.
Then, to make the dope more
scrambled, Gary nosed out 3 to 0
victory over Wabash High School,
due to a great place kick by Hughes.

AT the outset of the season, Notre
Dame students boosted of a back
field composed of -Four Mules"
contrast to the -Four Horsemen"
Of 1894, when the Irish were ao-
claimed National champions, The
season has decided that Knute
poclzne, the wonder coach, has not
four mules, but at least ten great
backfeld men.
One of them. Flanagan, is an
AlLAmerican possibility, Other
men on the team who received
Favorable mention in the East as

Purdue, under the guidance of
James Phelan, enjoyed a fine sea-
son. After years Of wait they de-
feated Chicago. Wisconsin was held
to tie, and the Navy was played to
a standstill, the Boilermakers losing
by a scant three points, II to IA.
The season was closed with a "a to

Green Material.
Indiana with its new coach, Pat
Page, did all that was expected with
green material. Wabash closed with
to victory over De PAW, their
bitter rival. Both DePauw and Wa
bash defeated Butler, which had a
very bad year, after an suspicious
start
Other teams that played fine ball
were Danville Normal; Muncie Nor
NAL and Franklin.
The above selections speak for
themselves, Flanagan, as has
been said, is a national figure,
Wilcox, likewise, was one of the
best In the Big Ten. Bennett
was about all the offensive
threat Indiana had. Koransky
was a smasher. He is also fine
defensive player.
Tt took two such players as Elan
agan and Wilcox to push Sturtridge
Of De Pauw to the second team. In
his last year he played the ball ex-
pected of him since his matr1cula-
ton, but which did not appear until
this season. Bennett and Nelmic are
similar type players and it is rather
expected that the Indiana flash
playing behind stronger line would
| have been a real wonder.
Kincaid was one of the giant line
men that made the Franklin team
what it was. The Baptists did not
| have much offense except Chaplin,
Anderson Selected.
Anderson, of DePauw, was one Of
the leading ends Of the State. This
is another instance where it is purely
the opinion of the writer as to su-
periority over Wallace Of Notre
| Dame.
Loer was the mainstay Of the Wa
bash line. Mayer; we say again, ts
Ar.American timber. The second
team contains some great players,
and even the third team boasts Of
some exceptional choices for that rat

sparkling players as the fans will
testify who saw some thrilling games

ball have terrible time
- convincing the boys what
the regulations are supposed to do.
The gridders pay very little at
tention to the five-yard penalty
inflicted for two incomplete for
ward passes in q series of downs.
If they want to pass, they pass.
This was the rule that caused
much commotion last year when
Il was put through. Some of the
coaches and sports writers said it
would do away with forward pass
ing. It has had about as much
effect upon the game as telling a
little boy to keep out Of the jam
or he'll be spanked.
And last week Ames against the
Kansas Agg1es added the straw
that broke the camel's back. After
ell that trouble about fixing UP
new rule on the safety, Ames
pulled the old strategy Of an in
territorial downing of the ball be-
hind its own goal, thus giving the
opponents two points, rather than
rislzing a tumble or a blocked
punt. The final upset score was
Ames, 8; Kansas Aggies, 2.
You know, the rule says this
year that the ball, after a safety,
must be put in play on the 20
ward line by kick. But Ames
did not seem to care.
The Army and Navy teams are
smart. They play after the sea-
son is over for most of the other
elevens and get reams and reams
of publicity-not that they need
any help to fill those 100000 seats

He brings back information that is price, less for aeronautical engineers, as we'll as from the military standpoint. We know a great deal more than any other nation about the Arctic, and we have MacMillan and Byrd to thank
 "One of the problems uncovered lies in the fact that in the Arctic the cruising range of plane is cut down considerably because of the increased consumption of gasoline. Both Mac Milan and Amundsen found this to be true. I think it probably is due to the extremely humid conditions in the troubles were due to cold oil.'
 Suggests More Powerful Plane.
 MT. Looming said he believed it was possible to design a plane capable of landing on a space of water filled with ice. Such an arrangement, he said, probably would call for about three hundred pounds of added weight in landing gear and springs.
 T think" said MT. Loening, "that for Arctic flying the planes should be larger and more powerful, with longer cruising radius. This can be done, I predict further study along sensible, unenthusiastic Hines which will enable the defects in design to be overcome. It won't happen tomor- row, but it will happen soon. We always have overcome such difficul- ties and we shall continue to do so.
 T am especially anxious to go over the three planes by. the MacMil- Ian party. When we uncover them we can learn a lot. This develop ment is going ahead, despite the cries of failure. Why, in three or four years from now, planes will be land ing vertically" ,.zt...
