But the school publicity depart
ment goes to much typewriter Ia
Dor to point out the advantages of
the outlying pews. Writes the de-
partment: In the relatively small
Indiana stadium, seats in the curves
are closer to the field of play than
are thousands Of seats along the
sidelines of the larger stadia. I'm
til the depression cut attendance,
seats in the curved sections sold at
regular reserved seat prices.
Some fans prefer seats in the ex-
IRENE depths of the curve because
of the view they get of holes being
opened up in the opposing lines"
TINE department, warming its OPP
4 timism for the coming fracas,
goes on to say: If necessary,
bleachers will be erected at the west
end Of the stadium to increase the
seating capacity from nearly $4,000
to about $4,000. While Purdue-In-
diana games have been near selloutS
in the last 10 years, only twice has
it been necessary to erect bleach
ers at the open end of the Bloom
ington stands. That was for the
stadium dedication game in 1925 and
again in 80
1t appears, however, that ballyhoo
in exploitation of the curve chairs
is unnecessary this time. The local
Indiana University Extension divi-
sion reports today that its ticket
allotment has been gobbled up, while
stories drifting out Of Bloomington
place the estimate of seats still I'M
sold as low as so.
IN Fed KELSO, captain, center,
IN place-kicker and general handy
man, has been Indiana's leading
scorer against the BoilermakerS in
the last two reunions. Two years ago,
in his first season of varsity compe-
tition, KelSo booted a field goal for
the CrimSon'S only tally. In last
years 17-6 triumph by Indiana, Kel-
SOS golden toe accounted for an
other field goal and two markers
after the touchdown to boost his
grand 'tOe-tal' to eight points.
NUMEROLOGISTS have a talk
~ ing point in Tom McGannon,
Purdues surprise sophomore half
back. Tommy, who started with a
54-yard touchdown dash in the early
Northwestern game and is going still,
wears jersey No. &c. which last year
flashed on the back of Jim Carter,
one of the teams much-publicized
Touchdown Twins" The other was
Duane PurviS.

boys in Crimson see trouble ahead
when those CHEEKY statistics singers
inform them that Iowas touted GAL

NTRITERS in several sections of

and commented upon Indiana'S new
electric scoreboard, which is touched
off by huge clock alert to keep
players and spectators abreast of
the time.
