INDIAN WAR DRUM
WILL AID GOPHERS
BY the Associated Press.

MINNEAT OLIS, Mimi, October 81
An old Indian war drum, one that
sounded the Tocsin for the last Indian
uprising in Minnesota, will be brought
to Minneapolis to help the Gophers
scalp Chicago" Saturday, and in the
course of time will take its place beside
the little brown jug in the foot ball
traditions of the University Of Mime
sofa. It's new role is to be that Of a
touchdown tom-tom."
Up until Tuesday that drum has been
one of the most treasured tribal possess
sions of the Pillager band of Chippewa
Indians near Walker, MINI. For more
than 20 years it has throbbed out its
songs at every Indian festivity. And
once, years ago. it thumped its defiance
to the white mans rule, and around it,
in the Pickering light of camp fires,
Redmen gathered for the Leech Lake
uprising. That was 80 years ago, and
1t cost the lives of six white men and
a dozen Indians.
Yesterday Ed Rogers, old-time foot
ball star and now a practicing attorney
at Walker, visited the Pillager band and
gained the consent of the chief to its
removal. Rogers, himself a Chippewa
and one of the most famous ends Min
nesota ever had, is going to bring the
drum to Minneapolis for the home-co
ing.
That marks the climax of several
years effort on the part of Prof. Otto
Zelner who first got the idea that Min
nesota, with its Indian background,
should have some things of the kind as
a distinguishing feature at its foot ball
games.

"Pest" Welch and Ed Caraway, both
Texans, were Chicagos greatest griefs
Each scored two touchdowns and Cara
way kicked three goals after touch
downs.
Purdue hung up only 20 first downs
to Chicago's 13. The MaroonS tried "a

eight were wild, and nine completed
for a total of 159 yards. Purdue tried
only six, three of which were completed
for an average of 13 yards each, and
the other trio being incomplete.
Welch had to be carried off the field
in the first period, but the wiry foot ball
player, so appropriately named Pest
by his opponents, started the second
half and managed to get in his share of
stampedfng before the game ended.
Purdue owed at least half of its score
to Chicago blunders. for the Maroons
punted badly, passed poorly and failed
to play good foot ball when they had
their one chance to score, near the
end of the second period when they
had the ball on the 1-foot mark.

0. 1t was Vandy's second conference
victory.
The game was won Systematically,
and although spectacular and replete
with thrilling runs 1t was a victory
for a blocking system McGugin taught
his team.
Scarcely had Virginia received the
first kickoff and lost ground before
the Commodores began pounding away,
and the Cavaliers gave. With Amistead
skirting ends and Schwartz wrestling
valuable gains from the Virginia line,
Vanderbilt soon worked the ball to the
Cavaliers 2-yard line, but lost 1t on
downs.
The Commodores took the ball in
midfeld on a punt. however and
worked it back to within striking dis
tance from where McGaughey and
Schwartz took it to the Virginia 4-yard
line. Amistead swerved through tackle
for the touchdown.
Then the crippled Virginia team ap-
peared to break" and the Commodores
piled up three more touchdowns be-
fore the first quarter was over.
After this deluge the Cavaliers pulled
themselves together and battled well to
the finish, the Commodores not scoring
again until the last period.
Armistead scored three of Vandy's
touchdowns and McIlwaine the other
two. Abernaty kicked four of the five
extra points.
At intervals, particularly when Sloan
had the ball, Virginia looked like an
important drive might be in the Cava-
liers, but each time the drive was
headed of by a staunch Commodore

Ohio State Keeps Its Confer.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, October 81
Ohio kept its Big Ten slate Clean
crushing Indiana, 13 to 0, before a
homecoming crowd of 10000 in Memo
rial Stadium here today.
The Buckeyes skirted the ends and
plunged through large holes in the In
diana line opened by Ohio forwards to
pile up a lopsided advantage. The
HooSierS showed fairly sustained de-
fensive, but their attack could gain
little against line that was 13 pounds
heavier to the man.
The punting of Harrell, Indiana back
kept the Scarlet and Gray threat away
from the Hoosier goal during most of
the first half, one of his boots travel
ing 70 yards. His advantage over Eby
in this department largely nullifed the
Buckeye gains.
1t was when Eby began skirting end.
protected by splendid interference by
Kruskamp, that Ohio added mcst of its
yaroage. This pair, working behind a
stonewall line, was the main cog in a
smooth-running Buckeye offensive that
made forward passes needless.
The first Ohio touchdown resulted
after Cory intercepted an Indiana pass
and returned it to the Indiana Award
line. Coach Wilce sent Kriss in for
Kruskamp and Kriss slashed the In
diana line to bits, finally skirting end
to put the bali on the 4-yard line.
Cory then took four attempts against
a Hoosier line, fighting for every inch,
and his fourth plunge went over. Bar
ratt place-kicked a goal.
In the third quarter a tumble by
Harrell, which was recovered by Ohio
on the Indiana 35-yard line, paved the
way for the start of varied attack,
which swept the Hocsiers back to their
goal. Kriss broke loose for about 20
yards. and from the 5-yard line Ebv
Slid of the Indiana right end. eIuded
two tacklerS and fell across. Barratt'a
placement attempt was blocked.
