Modest chap, Rice, as is made
apparent by the typically humble

though lacking any flare for show
manship, was a real star over a
stretch twice as long as the career
of an average big Lacquer lasts and
who contributed as much as any
other individual among an-accom-

which the team proved uniformly
successful and which netted three
pennants as well as world cham
pionship.
"I don't know what I'll be
doing in a base ball way this

always have nothing but the
kindest thoughts and best

smothered Indiana, Al to 13, and MAIN

The Boilermakers made good on 20

were good for points.
Seven thousand fans jammed the In

Purdue had piled up q 22-to-5 lead
at the half, largely through the sensa-
tional shooting of Fehring, Eddy and
Shaver. It was q weird exhibition
which partially demoralized the In
diana players, who until tonight boasted
the Big Tens best defensive record and
were expected to be the first team to
spoil the Boilermakers' ''point-a-min-

Saturday will be the fourth

But I don't know. AS q rule
this department is inclined to
take football results at pretty

accordingly.

take a ticket on it that it is not
