BADGERS TRIUMPH
BY A GREAT START
Make Three TouChdoWnS in
Opening Period to Beat =.
BoiIermakers, FILA.

NH ADDISON, Wis, October II
M Flashing an offense
that dazed their oppo-
nentS in the first period
Wisconsin scored three touch
downs in rapid succession to de-
feat Purdue, 81 to IA, in a Dads
day game played before $4,000

The game was only five min
uteS old when a surprising 30
yard Drive sent the Badgers across
the Purdue goal line for the first
touchdown. Eight minutes later
came the second, due in part to
a Purdue tumble which Wiscon-
sin recovered on the Boilermak-
ers' 25-yard line.
A blocked punt brought the third
Wisconsin touchdown. After the Bad
gers found they could pierce the Purdue
line they played as if inspired and were
not in danger until the third and last
periods, when Purdue got their aerial
game functioning. During the last two
periods the Badgers defense was IRE
Quently taxed to stop Purdue's passes.
Two Lead i'll March.
Linfor. Schneider and Mcclure, Bad
gers stars in the first period offensive,
alternated in taking the ball 10 the B.
yard line. Schneider hurtled over for
the counter. Linford kicked the extra
point. After a short punting duel Ha-
worth recovered Horstmann's tumble on
the latter's 25-yard line and Schneider
pass to Loyshin on the 10-yard line
put the Badgers in position to score
again. Schneider went over and Lintor
again kicked goal
After the third kickoff, Purdue S
running attack was checked by l5-
ward penalty that put the ball on the
9-yard line. Kabat broke through and
blocked Moss punt. falling on the ball
for the third touchdown. The Badgers
scoring ended when Linfor kicked the
extra point.
Boilermakers Make Drive.
At the start of the third period the
Boilermakers opened their o1enslVe.

that paved the way for another touch
down. Pardonner faxed a pass which
drew the Badgers out Of position and
then ran across the goal line. Pardon

ST JOHNS is BEATEN
BY CALVERT HALL, 60
A Pass That Nets so Yards Gives
Baltimore Team Victory in
Hard-Fought Game.

Calvert Hall School foot ball team of
Baltimore scored 60 triumph over a
hard-fighting ST. Johns eleven yester-
cay afternoon in Central High School
Stadium.
A 3O-yard pass from Baier to Green
who stepped 20 more yards to score.
brought the visitors their touchdown in
the second quarter. Baiers kick for eX-
ira point went awry.
st Johns never seriously threatened
to count, though the Kaydets got into
enemy territory several times on aerials
from Mccarthy to Scanlon. The latter
was st. Johns outstanding performer
on attack, his kicking as well as ball
carrying being of high order.
Calvert Hall shortly before scoring
its touchdown reached the st. Johns
20-yard line, where the Kaydets held
for downs.

BUCKEYES CONQUER
WOLVERINES, 2O-7
Aided in Scoring, but Show
Great Defense Against
Varied Attack.
By the Associated Press.

A mn ARBOR, Mich, October
~ 17.-Rated as underdogs,
"A a husky Ohio State eleven
took Michigan by surprise
today, swept them off their feet
from the start, and delivered a
major blow to the Wolverine
championship hopes. The final
score, 20 to 7, was as unexpected
to the 10000 spectators as it was
to Coach Harry Kipke's 1880 CO.
champions.
Michigan'S running attack was
stopped on nearly every occasion
and her Wanted aerial attack
failed to function until too late to
be effective.
A series Of costly fumbles brought
trouble to the Michigan line early in the
g~ene. One by Jack Heston, sophomore
fullback, second son Of the famed Willie
HeSton of a generation ago, contributed
directly to the first Ohio touchdown.
Even Michigan's famous scoring play,
OIQ oS, QeNelOpeO years ago Dy 1lcio-
ing H Yost, failed when an official be-
came entangled in the play, and Ohio
recovered the ball.
HestonS tumble gave Ohio the ball
on Michigans 31-yard line midway in
the first period. Henchman, Buckeye
halfback. drove through for FIRST
down on the 1l.yard line, and Carroll
went around right end for the first
Ohio score. aided by excellent blocking.
Haubrich place-kicked the extra point.
Michigan scored in the second period
when Williamson blocked Cramer's punt
behind the goal line and fell on the
ball for touchdown. Goldsmith boot
ed the placement and the score was
tied. Z all.
Ohio came back in the third period,
however, with 55-yard march down
the field TO Michigan's 2-yard line,
where Carroll again slipped through
for the second score. Haubrich failed
to make the extra point.
Ohio's perfection in blocking brought
the final touchdown in the fourth
period, when Cramer caught Heston's
punt and raced As yards down the side
lines, Peppe kicking the extra point.
Ohio State had a ret gain CT 109
yards from rushing, while Michigan had
Al. Three Of the Buckeyes four for
ward passes were completed for gain
of 81 yards Michigan completed 4
passes in II attempts for gain of e5
yards.

said.
For forty years this old building
has served BrownsvilIe-and serv-
ed the city well up until the past
Few years when the rrowth of
Brownsville began to necessitate
more accommodations in its fed
eral building.
Postmasters Outstanding
During this 4O-year period some
OF the outstanding citizens OF
Brownsville served at various times
as postmasters. The position of
postmaster carries with 1t the Of
flee of custodian OF the federal
building.
Succeeding MFR. Hoyt at the be-
ginning OF the Mckinley admins
tration In 1889 was William q.
Russell, who served during Cleve-
lands second term, up to 1858. In
that year A. AshheiI who had been
assistant postmaster under Hoyt
and Russell, was appointed.

and September. with other special
terms, and many cases OF interest
to all Texas, and at times nation
ally. have been tried In this old
building. one OF the most recent
cases attracting national attention
was the Creager-C Golfers libel suit,
tried last year.
Change Necessary
The steady growth of Browns
vile. the increase In postal busi-
ness. In the court business. and In
other federal business made IL APP
parent that some change In accom-
modations must be made here.
In 1926 the old Hiding was IN
larged by the addition or u one
story annex to the postoffice Sec
ton, and the raising OF ne roof
and construction OF a third story
70 the entire building, only part OF
which had originally been three
stories.
II was also slightly remodeled
and modernlzed.
In 1928 postal officials visited
Brownsville and inspected the
building. and decided that a com
plete remodeling was necessary.
For this job a $4,000 appr0pria-
ton was being considered.
IL was then that the campaign
for the new building was launch
ed. Active in helT ing Brownsville
get this move through we're Con-
gresham John NJ. Garner. and n.
B. Creager. Practically all citizens
OF Brownsville took part In the
campaign, coordinating their eff
forts through the chamber OF COM
merce.
The result was a $4,000 ap-
preparation secured last year.
Now the results or that cam
paign. and that appropriation. are
beginning TO become apparent In
a material way.
The new federal building will be
a model Of substantial construction
and efficient arrangement.
1t will coordinate practically all
OF the large number or federal
agencies and groups In Brownsville.
II will bring additional federal
employees to Brownsville. one OF the
most important being a federal

parallelled for steadiness Is shown
In business at the Brownsville
postoffice during . : period be-
tween 1892 and 1891. The postal
receipts. for instance, increased
from $3.516 in 1895. TO $66, 659.74 In
1897. This increase vas gradual but
steady. There are only five years
during this period when postal re-
ceipts failed to show nm increase
over the year Immediately ureced-
ing. One Of these was In 1918, the
year after the troops left the bor-
der. when receipts dropped from
$500 to S28.329.
The Brownsville postoffice be-
came a first class office in 1875,
when the receipts went above $40
600 annually and remained there.
They have continued to mount
since that time.
Customs receipts have showed
more OF q fluctuation. depending ON
conditions in Mexico. duties, etc.
For instance the business with Mex
leo through here was $4,000 u
1895. 5000 In 1905. $4,000 in 1918,
and $1.700 In 1916.
However. there has been a steady
increase the past few years. the
receipts coming up from $4,000 to
more than 100000 annually. IN
dications r that these figures will
be greatly exceeded with the de-
velopment of traffic through here
into Mexico by air. highway and
rail.
VIM. A. Neal Is deputy collector
OF customs mt the present time. He
has occupied this position since
1921 Mr.. Neal vas preceded In the
office by r.. L. CHM. who later be-
came postmaster.

a time a district by itself. ard q
collector of customs was stationed
here. Among the collectors OF Gus
