NEW YORK, Oct. 31-Yale and
Princeton, ex-members of the old
Big Three, are leading the pack into
the, November stretch along the
eastern gridiron trail.
Equipped with a good, old-fash-
toned line and one of the star backs
of the Nation in Bruce Caldwell,
Yale has on successive Saturdays
beat Brown, Army and Dartmouth,
giving the last two their first de-
feats of the season.
Georgia came up from down
South to give Yale a 14-to-10 de-
feat in early october, but if the
truth of that game be known Geor-
gia was mighty lucky to win. Yale
squandered five opportunities to
score in the final quarter.
With something of great line it
self and a four-star. back field -
Baruch, Wittmer, Norman and
Miles-Princeton is swapping at the
heels of the Yale Bulldogs. Prince
ton is undefeated, but its only real
claim to greatness is a 21-10 victory
over Cornell.
Both have intersectional games
this week, Princeton meeting Ohio
State at Palmer Stadium for the
first gridiron game between those
two schools and Yale playing Mary
land in the bowl.
The following week, Nov. IL, Yale
and Princeton meet at New Haven

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 3l.-Intersec-

ference contests in Missouri Valley
and southern districts Saturday
and the title races in both confer

Battle for Eastern Grid Honors
Between Yale, Princeton Elevens

Nov. IL Clash at New Haven

in the annual game and the victor
may walk off the gridiron with the
best claim to Eastern football honors.
Two Pennsylvania elevens-Pitts-
burgh and Washington and Jeffer-
son-have been cutting quite a
swath and rank among the best
elevens of this section. They clash
at Pittsburgh Saturday.
The widely heralded New York
University eleven failed miserably
in its first real test of the season,
being held to a scoreless tie by Col
gate, beaten by v. P. I. and Wabash.
The Army smashed the unbeaten
record of Bucknen with "a to O
defeat. Brown, the biggest disap-
pointment of the season, lost its
fourth straight game to Temple,
7 to 0. Nine of last years unde-
feated iron men" are on the 1927
Brown team.
In stopping the triumphant
march of Dartmouth, Yale proved
a rugged line will Offset an eleven
built strictly along offensive lines
with its strength in the backf1eld.
The score was 10 to O.
A running mate for the great
Caldwell was discovered in the
second quarter, when John Garvey
went in for Caldwell and in four
teen plays carried the ball for two
touchdowns, covering nearly 100
yards.

Indianapolis high school elevens

ington made it all square by battling
to a tie with Carmel.
The Cathedralites nosed out the
strong Jasonville eleven. 7 to 6, in

the year for the Irish. Dugan scored
the touchdown and added the win
ming try for point.
Boys Prep turnbled beforee the at

The locals were surprised with the
speed and snap of the Wilkinson

BY DICK MILLER

Mr.. Hoosier football fan thrust
out his chest today and with broad
smile O. KID the weekend show
ings made by Indiana College teams
Saturday. Of twelve games played,
eight we're against out-State elevenS.
Of these trays three we're won, four
lost and one tied. The other four
games were intra-State battles. The
victors generally were acclaimed by
dope before hand.
1t was highly pleasing the way the
Notre Dame team walloped the adj
vertised best of the South, Georgia
Tech, 26-7. Knute Rockne had few
worries as he sat on the bench and
watched his shock tIpops ably han
die the vaunted Southern tor
nado."
Wilcox Spurs Purdue
Another fizzle challenger was
Montana. The alleged Cowboys
seemed to ride Cotton-shod mounts
as they galloped into the Purdue
Boilermakers. Jimmy Phelan, Pur-
due mentor, decided on the second
string idea of a starting lineup.
Montana spurted to an early touch
down. Phelan rushed out the regu-
lars, including Captain Wilcox who
has been on the hospital list most
of the season. The pair, Wilcox
and WEIGH, certainly obtained prac-
tice as they ran, passed and kicked
in spectacular manner all afternoon.
The final whistle stopped the scor-
ing that had reached 39-7. The re-
turn of Wilcox to the lineup seemed
to be the Stimulant needed to make
Purdue winning team.
After playing two great games in
which they had been keyed to
supreme efforts, against Minnesota
and Notre Dame, the Indiana Uni
.versity squad travelled East and
tackled the big Harvard team at
Cambridge. 1t was a different
Harvard team than Purdue met
three weeks ago and defeated. In
fact the Fasteners seemed to profit
Tby the Purdue defeat. About the
fourth quarter the excitement wore
off and the firing process of
Harvard SUBSTITUTES began to tell in
touchdowns. The fasteners scored
three and ran their lead to rs to 6.
Bennett Scores
Harvard plunged the line for a
march to the Hoosier goal in the
first quarter. Indiana turned tables
for similar driven in the second
period. A pass, Balay to Bennett,
was good for six points. The score
remained Z to 6 until the last
quarter when Harvard began inter-

SouthpaWs Beaten, but
Give Kokomo Battle in
Hard Independent Fray

BIZ Times Special
KOKOMO, Ind, Oct. 31.-The
Kokomo American Legion eleven
turned back the Indianapolis South
paw team Sunday, 100. The local
team was never in immediate goal
line danger, but the Indianapolis
squad was threat until the last
whistle.
Bolstered by the presence of the
three Fisher brothers, Scott, George
and Fred, the Southpaw warriors
battled the locals even the first
quarter. An overhead attack by the
Legion carried the ball to the fiji
teen-yard line, where the visitors
held. for three downs. Harmeson
dropped back and booted a. place
kick for. three points.
The teams battled for a break
and the locals got it when Stroll
intercepted a Southpaw pass and
sprinted to the ten-yard line. A
drive ended when Singleton plunged
over just a few seconds before the
half ended. Harmeson kicked the
additional point. That was the ex-
tent of the scoring.

WILDCATS AT PURDUE
Suckers May Be 1927
Miracle Team
BY CLARK b. KELSEY,


CHICAGO, Oct. 31.--Bob Zuppke,
crafty coach of the University of
Illinois, now appears in the role Of
miracle man" of the 1927 football
season so far as the Middle West is
concerned.
Zuppke's charges, viewed by the
experts when the season opened as
good football team which wasn't
going anywhere" rest today on the
top of the percentage column in the
Big Ten Conference. They are
there by virtue of their surprising
14-to-0 victory over Michigan Sat-
urday-the outstanding upset of the
weekend.
The Illini have three more games
on their schedule-IoWa, Chicago
and Ohio State-and any one of
those games may turn out to be
an upset; but If dope means any
thing at all, Illinois should come
out at the end of the season the
only undefeated, united team in the
Conference.
If zuppke's men lose any one of
those three games, then it is up to
somebody to. beat Minnesota or
Minnesota will be undisputed cham
pion. Minnesota won. Is to Z, over
Wisconsin Saturday.
Northwestern, with one victory
and one defeat on its Big Ten
record, faces Purdue at Lafayette.
With Tiny" Lewis and several other
regulars on the sidelines, North
western suffered a huniliating ga
to-19 setback Saturday at the
hands of Missouri's Tigers, who were
likewise crippled.
Michigan and Chicago. each with
two victories and one defeat, meet
at Chicago and the outcome is a
toss-up, although most critics favor
Michigan.
Indiana, disappointed in its defeat
at the hands of Harvard, rests, this
week by taking on Michigan State
of Lansing. Ohio State, victors over
Chicago by count of Is to 7, goes
East to meet Princeton, and Wis
consin's Badgers-who pressed Min
nesota to the limit before accepting
defeat Saturday-take on Grinnell
in a practice game at Madison.
Illinois meets Iowa at Iowa City
this Saturday in the first of its three
tests and this game will be one of
the feature attractions on the
Saturday program. Iowa hasn't
showed to good advantage yet this
year, but if the theory that every
team has one good game in its
system proves up, it may be that
Saturday will be "Iowa's day" The
Hawkeyes didn't add much to their
glory in beating Denver u, is to 0.

whi~. content themselves with an an

to bondholder.
There are, of course. companies en-
gagged in business which are seasonal
in nature so that quarterly reports ar
sometimes misleading and, yet that
can be allowed for, and is much mo ;
satisfactory than to have no report
at all. 1t is this element which en-
ters into the making of the market
price of some real estate bonds. There
are no data as to earnings and so no
guide to current changes in value.
This is not necessarily a reflection on
tho bond itself; it only explains tn J
market appraisal.
In a sense also this lack of informa.
ton enters into the making of the
prices of foreign securities. The in
formation is really available. but it
takes time to gather 1t and good
many investors will not go to the
trouble. So it happens that foreign
bonds as well as real estate often sell
below their real value. This is an i'm

when examining the list of hlgh-yield-
ing bonds which has been discussed
