BOOST KILLINGS
Gain of Fl Over 1926 Is
Shown in 1927 in Indi-
ana Murders.

TWenty-one more persons were
murdered in Indiana during 1927
than IN 1926, report OF H. M. Wright,
director of the State bureau of vital
statistics shows.
Figures show 1872 murdered last
year and III the year before
Increase in murder can be di-
rectly charged to the weakening OF
family ties, high speed automobile
and bootleg whisky" Frederick E.
Schortemeier. secretary of State
and nominal head of the State
bureau of criminal identification
said.
Suicides Keep Pace
Findings of the bureau show that
weakened family ties means loss of
moral perspective, and the rotten
liquor now sold causes temporary
insanity. The fast automobile makes
escape from the scene of crime
comparatively easy.
Suicides have kept pace with the
murders, Wright's statistics show.
An increase of fifty-three suicides

methods the remainder.
The most spectacular death was

VIRGINIA ANNEXES
THRILLING BATTLE
Downs Washington and Lee,
20-13, Registering Two
Quick Scores.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, November
3-Virginia defeated Washington and
Lee, 20 to 13, this afternoon, playing
alert foot ball to win the third success
sive victory from the Generals and the
tenth in a series of IA games dating
back to 1890.
Cavaliers and Generals alike seemed
to have shaken off the sluggish play
of the last few contests, and the 10000
in the stands we're thrilled by con-
test full of excitement and color from
Virginias successful on-side kick at
the opening until Pinkerton intercepted
a pass in the Cavalier end zone at the
close.
Coach Earle Neale'S charges started
the contest on their toes and followed
the surprise kickoff by blocking the
first Washington and Lee punt. Flip
pin was on top of Thibodeau before
ne could kick, and Debutts recovered
the ball on the 25-yard line Five plays
later Johnny Sloan carried over the
first touchdown, but Faulconers try for
point was blocked.
A few minutes later Sloan ran a punt
back Is yards to midf1eld, and within
Jess than 10 minutes after the game
had started Faulconer went across with
The second score. This time his drop
kick was true.
Washington and Lee took on new life
when Thibodeau went 30 yards around
end to the 6-yard line. Virginia's de-
fense steadied. out White went over
the goal on the fourth down Lofts
kick for point was blocked.
The Generals continued their mag
nificent rally with another drive of 60
yards, which ended when White scored
again. This time Lott tied the score
with his kick.
Virginia's winning touchdown came
carly III the second hclf when Lofts
tumble was recovered Flippin, who
cerried 1t 35 yards = oss the goal.
Faulccncr added the extra point. Flip
pin, who is Virginia captain of track,
was at end for the first time after an
illness of a month and play3d SEN
sational game throughout
Both Gain Steadily.
Both teams continued their attacks
upon each others goals, but neither
was successful. Washington and Lee
finally resorted to the air, hut Taylor,
Sloan and finally p.Ekerton intercepted
passes from Lott. Near the close the
Generals coach sent In Williams, who
had not played since he was injured
aiding the Generals in defeating Caro-
lima State. His chance came after two
runs by Lott had putt the ball IL yards
from the Cavalier goal. He tipped with
his fingers the pass which Pinkerton
intercepted IN the end zone for touch
back on the last play.
From start to finish the game was a
spectacular duel between two teams de-
termined to win The Generals were
somewhat over-anxious on the start,

seemingly hopeless against them. while
the virginians appeared aler: at all

CENTRAL AND TECH
BATTLE. THIS WEEK
Game on Friday Is Feature of
Attractive Card of
School Clashes.

Featuring the scholastic foot ball card
for District elevens this week will b-
the annual CanGral-Tech public high
title battle Friday in Central Stadium
at 3:l5 o'clock. In the other champion
ship series game Of the week Business
and Eastern will clash Tuesday at the
same place and hour.
In another game of more than ordi-
nary interest, Eastern and Gonzaga will
meet Friday in the Eastern stadium
The same day will find Business and
st. Johns battling, probably on the
Monument Lot, and st. Adams engag-
ing its old rival, st. Christopher, at
Richmond.
Emerson will engage York (Pa.) High
at York on Saturday in the only tilt
listed that day IN which Washington
schoolboy eleven will figure.
While Tech, which is tied with East
ern at two wins and no losses for the
series game, when it fell before Central,
trail on the basis of comparative show
ings to date, the game is certain to at
tract large crowd and to be marked
by much color, as are all athletic meet
ings between the Mckinley and Colum-
bia Heights boys. That Tech will strive
to hand its old rivals an artistic lacing
is certain, as the Maroon and Gray
wants 10 even scores for the 1910 de-
feat handed it by the Blue and White
last Fall.
Eastern will be seeking its third win
in as many starts against Business, and
indications are that the Lincoln Park
ers should triumph rather handily.
Business was unimpresSive in its last
cries game. when IL fell before Central
0 to Is, and Eastern will present line
up strengthened by at least one new
player of ability Business has lost both
its starts to date.
Eastern and GonEaEa have long been
rivals and Fridays battle has aroused
a deal of interest, as both elevens are
strong and a spirited contest is expect
ed to be in order. Gonzago vanquished
Eastern, to 0, last Fall.
Business and ST. Johns likely will
stage an interesting game, as they ap-
pear rather well matched.
St. Adams would call its foot ball
season a success if it could trim ST.
Christopher its traditional foe, regard
less of how many other games 1t lost.
In its only contest to date st. Adams
took the measure of st. Paul's School
in Baltimore. IL to 0. st. Adams de-
feated st. Christopher last season 6 to
0, here.
Emerson probably will find York High
a worthy opponent The Pennsylvania
scholastics recently drubbed Business

ed Central, to 6.
