sport is the topmost travelling
point of previous years.
Furious Games Promised
Either the omniscient oracle is to
upset Hoosier hardwood circles, or
Indiana basketball is to topple a
choice axiom of the gods.
The new system of tourney play,
caused by the insertion of the semi
finals, may provide in fury what it
lacks in longevity and color. Each
of the Big Four comes with a po-
tential champion, its power proved
in well-deserved victories in the
other tournaments.
Coach Mark Wakefield of Evans
vile today is more thankful than
any for the change in tourney
schedule. 1t provides a week to
repair team handicapped by sick
ness and injury. Without the serv-
ices of Dixon and Cunningham, the
Bears retarded the touted New AL
bany team last week and then de-
posed the Washington squad which
had scored a major upset over
Martinsville.
The No. Underdog
Two more games Immediately
might have been too much for a
tired team, but Coach Wakefield
has all this week to prepare the
squad for its big chance. Eleven
victories, six defeats-capped by
eight straight in elimination meets
"a points in last weeks games,
as much as scored by Fort Wayne's
powerful team, in semi-f1nal meet
as tough as others. That is the
background of a team that is
placed fourth among four by fore
casters, yet smiled upon by a god
dess of fortune.
This should not be interpreted
as a prediction, merely reminder
that four teams measure even in
combined qualifications and exist
ing conditions. Where one team
holds the upper hand in estimated
power it carries burden of men,
tai strain or extenuating hoodoos:
1t will require more than an oracle
to decide the Hoosier 1896 cham
piCu.

The eX-collegian wrestlers did all
their cutting up with scissors" and
the match ended with each holding
one fall and the rivals head be-
tween his knees. Dynamite Gus
Sonnenberg, who Jared the grid
opposition at Dartmouth, forgot his
instructions to hit EN- below the
knees.
Joe's Head 1T Target
The Savoldi head, which had
pierced it's way through some of the
best football lines in the country,
was the object of the originator of
the flying tackle in the mat sport.
After 80 minutes of head scissors
and head locks, Gus croke through
the line to drop Jumping Joe for
loss. The safety scored two
points, and after a rest period the
players came out to the 20-yard line
for more scissors holds. Then %
minutes later Gus missed his Sec
ond tackle and Joe dropped back
for kick, and the field goal made
it to 2.
Only five minutes of the time
limit remained for the deciding fall
and neither man could get past
midfeld. Referee Art Shires lifted
the hands of both men, and Gus
refused to shake hands.

Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn

If you are troubled with corns or

poison by pairing them. Statistics show
that many infections have occurred
from this seemingly innocent practice
of pairing corns.
Simply go to your druggist and get
some Ice Mint. rub a little on any pain
full corn or callous. The pain promptly
disappears and in a short time the corn
or callous will loosen and lift off easily
root and all-leaving the surround
ing skin in healthy normal condition.
This, together with the fact that Ice
Mint Quickly eases such troubles as
sore, tired. aching. puffed or burning
feet and makes them cool, easy and
comfortable, is probably the reason for
the hearty endorsement given it By
druggists.
To rid ones feet of every hard corn,
soft corn. corn between the toes or
painful callouses in such a pleasant
and safe way. makes it seem the
height of folly for any one to pare a
corn and people are warned to stop it,.
