Valparaiso, Wabash Place Two on
All-Indiana Secondary Eleven
Raber of Butler Named at
Full Back; Many
Stars Included.

Indicated and united, Coach j
M. (Jake) Christiansen's Valparaiso
university football team is accorded
the Indiana secondary college cham
pionship for 1882.
Their claim is challenged only by
the powerful little team assembled
by Carl Burt at Manchester college
The upstate Uhlans are figured the
winners of the gonfolan principally
because Manchester dropped its
opening game.
1t is regretted these two sterling
football machines did not clash
Both lineups were sprinkled gener-
ouSly with individual stars.
Schools Evenly Matched
It is hard to recall a season when
the smaller schools of the state
we're so evenly matched.
That several of these secondary
college teams possessed players who
could grace the varsity lineup of al
most any big time college is not q
radical statement. Kenneth Olsen
who played every minute of seven
games for Valparaiso; Don Wheaton
De Pauw's wonder player, and Lit
tie John Piper, spark plug of Man
chesters attack, are three such
players.
Olson Great Quarter
Olsen was ofaultless in his direc-
ton of play and was without sin
gle playing weakness. Wheaton
possessed a fine playing tempera-
ment and was able to take punish
ment and still shine. Piper ran wild
against all opposition.
Lefty Powers, Wabash tackle, Doc
Ellington, Franklin end, Stryker
Valpo tackle and Billy Daley, Fan
over end, were better than ordinary
stars.
Greatly responsible for his teams
great garrison finish at the end Of
the season, Nelson Raber of Butler
is accorded the full back post, mainly
for his defensive ability. Bob Stew
art, team mate, could lug the ova
as well as any player in the state
with the exception of Meese of
Hanover, but with such offensive
players as Wheaton, Olsen anc
Piper it is felt that the first team
needs defensive balance-and Rabel
gives it.
Nelson Was Versatile
Nelson was a great asset to Wa
bash at guard or any place else they
needed him in a pinch. Byerly
played well at all times for Man
chester. When Manchester and In
diana State clashed, May, the little
Negro player, was the Standout de-
fensive man on the field.
There was shortage of good Gen.
tiers. Hunt improved as the season
progressed and was praised highly
by Coach Lawrence McPhee.
Redding of Ball State was a very
fine Wingman and Logan Gillett is
unquestionably one of the finest all
around players in secondary col
lege circles.

[. u. Rival

By Times Special
BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Dec. g.
Indiana U. and Wabash, ancient
Hoosier hardwood rivals, tangle
here tonight, inaugurating their
1928 cage campaigns. Varsity &C
ton is slated for 7:30, to be followed
by a reserve tuSsle.
After weeks of conditioning and
two weeks of intensive drill, the In
diana starting lineup seems pretty
we'll settled with veterans predomin-
ating in spite of the great number
of sophomore candidates.
Hodson and Weir are slated to GO
in at forwards while Hoffar prob
ably will play center. Porter, a
former Logansport flash, is the only
sophomore reasonably certain OF
starting. He will play back guard.
Floor guard lies between Heaven
ridge, Hollars and Henry, sophie
mores; and Cordell, Opasik, and
Dauer, veterans. Heavenridge
formerly of Washingtons state
championship quintet, appears to
hold the edge. Campbell and Kehrt
are forwards who probebly will play
relief roles.
Wabash has strong lineup with
Knisley and Fobes at forward
Berns, former Shortridge ace, at
center and Mason and Criler at
guards. The two guards performed
together at Anderson high school.

rikSon'S picture as we'll as her COM
ment on the car. Naturally, we are
sorry to hear of the A. A. US &C
ton. InaSmuch as Miss DidrikSon
did not receive so much as a penny
for her testimonial, she must have
been ignorant of the A. A. U. ruling
on such things. Certainly, our firm
was.
Down in Dallas, Colonel Nc
Combs, in discussing his charges
case, made no mention of any let
ter of release. He said Babe owns
an earlier model of the same make
of automobile, that she had not
even seen the 1888 model.
Many experts rate Miss Didrikson
as the greatest woman athlete of
all time. In addition to the worlds
records in the eighty-meter hurdles,
lavelin throw and high jump, the
Texas wonder holds world and
American records in the eight pound
shot put and the baseball throw.
She also broke the world record in
the discus throw in post Olympic
competition, and has broad Jumped
II feet IL inches.
Babe also is an America bas-
ketball player, and is highly tai
ented in baseball, golf, ten p
swimming, boxing, parchesi and
quoits, to mention a few of her
Sidelines.

circuits-the International and Pa
cific Coast Leagues and the Amer
lean Association.
The discussion is not expected to
produce results. however, for the
officials Of the three leagues are at
variance on the proposal. The
American Association already has
adopted the $6,50O-a-month budget
which was proposed by the execu
tive committee of the National AS
ISOLATION of Professional Baseball
Leagues, now in session.
The international League heads
think this limit too low to be con-
ducive to f1rst-class ball, and favors
one some $4,000 month higher.
The Coast League isn't particularly
interested in fixing any player or
salary limit.
