BY DICK MILLER

Butler university surprised a
multitude of grid fans Friday night
as the Bulldogs nearly edged out a
victory over the vaunted Ohio uni
versity team at the Butler bowl.
The Buckeyes, undefeated since
1928, were able to squeeze out a
1877 win in the last quarter.
Some times it takes years to do
it, but it can be done and Oakland
City dropped a powerful Central
Normal team of Danville 1910. A
savage last quarter rally by Wabash
fell short of victory and the Scarlet
was nosed out of a tie in game
that was settled when try for extra
point failed after the final gun was
exploded. The score was Manches-
ter, ID; Wabash, IL.
Franklin Loses Battle
1t was stubborn Franklin team,
much improved over their perform
ance Of week ago, that battled
Indiana State Teachers at Terre
Haute before Succumbing to defeat
8 to 0. Friday afternoon and night
grid results proved entirely the I'M
certainty of football and the chance
for the upset.
Lone-handed, or should we say
footed" Kenny Booz and his edu-
Gated punting toe nearly gave
Butler the edge in their game with
Ohio U. After a scoreless first
quarter the invaders drew first blood
when they benefited bs half-dis-
tance-to- goal-penalty, taking the
ball on the 22-yard line from where
Phillips and Hart plunged in three
plays.
Hinchman Goes Over
The Bulldogs came back and once
Hinchman was stopped six inches
from goal. But a passing attack
was rot to be denied and a heave,
Booz to Ray Miller, was short of a
touchdown only because Miller
stepped out less than a yard of goal.
Hinchman quickly plunged over.
Polizotto added the edge point with
a place kick and Butler led Z to 6
at half time
A 20-yard punt return by Maurer,
a 25-yard pass, Maurer to Burke,
and an end run by Hart took the
ball to the Butler 4-yard line where
the Bulldogs repulsed three plays
before Kepler plunged over, but the
extra point try failed.
It was all Kelly at Oakland City,
the Oak quarter back counting both
touchdowns against Central Normal
both scores coming in the last half.
Loge was a great aid to Kelly.
Coda Is Star
The first half of the franklin
State game was a bit in favor OF
Franklin, with Downey, Surface and
Ellington frequently threatening the
State goal. An occasional dash by
little Tom Coda, sub half back for
State, kept the State team alive.
Dick and Carl played great defen-
sive games, but cut-bcak play with
Coda carrying the oval placed the
ball on the one-yard line and Mar
tin carried it over. Place kick for
added point was wide. but after
Franklin stopped State scoring
march on the two-yard line, a
Franklin man blocked his own
teams punt and the ball rolled out
of the end zone for a safety, which
ended the scoring.
Chapman Leads Chesters
Chapman, for three years one Of
the mainstays of the Manchester
team, was the whole works Friday
night at Charlottesville, and he
scored the first touchdown in the
first quarter after being on the heav-
ing end of some short effective
passes. In the third quarter Chap
man tossed one to Tully after
Wabash tumble and Chapman place
kicked the extra point, giving the
Chester a 1870 lead.
