 The bout will be lover the 10 round route to q judges decision, with the weight set at 1S5 pounds.
 There are several hitches or near hitches in this program, however 4 rording to Manager Denny Nc Mahon, McGraw and Hudkins were originally scheduled to meet at the Garden on October 2S. but McGraw has declared he will not go through with the match unless Hudkins en- ters the ring at 135 pounds. Hud- kins wants to tip the scale at 13S pounds and this, In McGraw s opinion, is bit too high. Me- Graw's fighting weight varies from 1S2 to l35 pounds,
 If Jess McMahon, Tex Richards matchmaker at Madison Square Garden, decides to eliminate Hud- kins, Kaplan will get the shot at McGraw. If Jess acccdes to Hud- kins' demands, the Wildcat will be thrown in against Kaplan and Nc Graw will be placed on the shelf. At any rate.

PURDUE UPSE7S
 BIG TEN OUTFITS
EGstWhile Stepping Stone Holds
 Wisconsin to SC0lfleSS Tie

Chicago. Oct. IS LP,-It remained for Purdue, whose teams usually have been stepping stones in the de- Nclopmcnt of other elcvens, 10 upset the Western Conference bucket of dope on Saturdays tournaments.
 Michigan's defeat of Minnesota and Illinois victory over Iowa were not unexpected. but when the Boiler makers from the banks of the Wa bash held the powerful Wisconsin eleven to scoreless tie and kept the Badgers fighting to stave off de feat. Big Ten followers began look ing over Coach Jimmy Phelan' s gridiron boys with q microscope.
 They saw that he had one of the finest backs in the Conference in Cotton" Wilcox. and another star of the first order in Fullback koran- sky. whose defensive and offensive work had much to do with stopping Wisconsin. After viewing the con- test one scout unburdened himself in this manner: Tt is about time that some of the boys began to realize that Jimmy Phelan's football ma chine can get more mileage on a gallon of gridiron gas than many more machines that are better up holstcred and more striking in de- sign"
 Purdue will have an opportunity further to demonstrate it's confer ence rating next Saturday when it takes on the Maroons, who fell by the waysidc the last weekend in matching boots and passes with Pennsvlvania. Incidentally Chicago was the only one of four leading mid-western teams to fall in inter- sectional contests with eastern elevens. Notrc Dame taking the measure of Pennsylvania State. Ohio beating Columbia and Michigan State triumphing over Cornell.
 Knutc Rockne's men invade Con ference territory next Saturday talk ing on Northwestern, which moved into the charmed circlo of mythical Big Ten leaders along with Illinois and Michigan by it's victory over h. diana.
 The field will hc narrowed down considerably after next Saturday as Michigan plays Illinois and Ohio meets Iowa. Tn the other games Wisconsin will try it's skill against Indiana and Minnesota will tackle Wabash.

HANLEY PUTS HASKELL INDIANS !. WELL AHEAD ON FOOTBALL MAP

Lawrence. Kas., Oct. 1S.-When Richard F. Hanley, a Washington State star, came to Haskell to take charge of athletics the Indian foot ball eleven had some difficulty in holding its own against small I--nsas conference teams.
 Today the name of Haskell stands on the football honor roll just where Pop" Warner placed the name of Carlisle some years ago.
 Hanlcy is starting his fifth year with the Indians this season. In the, last four years he has sent q team into the field which won 37 games. lost only nine and tied two. The team has played frequently on both coasts. playing three times on the Atlantic and twice on the Pacific.
 His Indians hold impressive vic tories over schools like Brown. Will liam and Mary, Gonzaga, Creighton. St. Xaviers, Butler and the Los An geles Athletic club. The Indians lacked orly a point of tying teams like Boston College and Minnesota.
 Coach Hanley is ambitious for a victorious season this fall, but Buck nell, Michigan State and Boston Col lege are the hurdles his team must take.
 The best season in the history of Indirn participation in football is predicted for Haskell by football ex- perts. This is due to the fact that abundant material developed by Hanley himself is available, also to the spirit generated by a new sta dium, and to a schedule which does

BANKERS URGED TO
RESTRICT LENDING

Ali bankers in Arkansas are urged
by State Bank Commissioner Loid
Rainwater, in an open letter issued
last week, to require farmers to raise
their own feed and food and cut their
cotton acreage as a condition TO oD-
tanning loans to finance the planting
Of the 1926 crop.
"Your excess loans and long past due
notes are Illegal" Commissioner Ram
waters letter says. Credit has been
so disgustingly cheap that borrowers
of all professions have abused it. The
banker has been called live wire,
good fellow most progressive citizen
and kidded into the idea that he ls
responsible for the life, death and wei
fare of his constituents. This idea
prevails and your note case with Us
frozen loans and Indifferent creditors
is a silent reminder that you, gradually
but surely, are betraying the trust i'm
posed In you by stockholders, directors
and depositors."
The commissioner said that frequent
examinations and criticisms for pam
violations of the state banking laws
are necessary" When a banker has
impaired his capital, depleted his re-
serve, exhausted his borrowing capa-
city, and the commissioner is compelled
to take charge, the verdict always has
been condemnation of the banker ana
not the creditors, the letter says.
The banker has his money in trust
only, and has no moral or legal right
to lend the funds of his institution
to any man of any profession, unless
backed up by sound securities, the
letter continues. Anything short OF
equal value for these funds is specula-
tive and not sound for the banker or
good for the borrower.
The letter called attention to the
fact that the two banks at Ashdown
adoped resolutions recently, over the
signitures Of all the directors, giving
the terms on which money will be ad-
vanced to farmers. The commissioner
said similar resolutions should be
adopted by every country bank in the
state.
He said his 36 years experience has
permitted him to know the country
bankers burden and that he has my
sympathy more than all other individ-
uals combined" He added that he
went into the bank commissioners
office for the express purpose Of "help-
ing and saving" the country banker.
The commissioner said he is in per-
feet accord with the comptroller of the
currency, the Federal Reserve Board
and supervisors Of other Southern
states as to a determined policy for the
betterment of banks and bank credits.
"You are just entering your fur
nishing season." the letter concludes
land it is my desire to warn you of
the mistakes of the past 20 years, and
to effect promise that you will have
your clients raise their feed, cut their
cotton acreage and follow as nearly
as possible the basic plan outlined by
the Committee on Agriculture of the
Arkansas Bankers Association"
