The heuvy Tech team, which weighs nearly as much as the University of Nebraska eleven per player. Is ex pected to throw liasses In order to gain victory. South High has a light but stub born line and may prove a large rock in Tech's path to victory. Should this turn out to be true, the Book keepers will resort to the air attack. The Tech backfleld of Charnquist at quarter. Holm at full and Swartz and Zust at halves, is a hard hitting backfleld. The line, however, wob bles under hot fire of the enemy: Coach Drummond experts to start West and Garvey at ends and Mausdam and I.ucas at tackles, with Short, captain, and Knight at tlie guards. Winston will probably be at center. Coach Patton of South sent his men through a hard scrimmage last night. Will) file exception of Captain Kceves and Bertieini, tile ten in is in good physical condition. Tlic Packer coach expects to start Pankowski and I'rban on the wing positions, Knlawik and Kal strom at tackles, and fVilbert and .Sherman at guards. Kurts will lie at center. Tills line is kpown as one of tlie gamest in'the'state and a hard one to puncture, although it is light. In the backfleld Coach Patton has Captain Reeves at fullback. Reeves has a bad leg and may not play the entire contest. Bertieini and Olson at halves are expected to gain yard age. The former had a badly bruised shoulder. Bernard will bark the sig nals. He Is one of the best tacklers in the city. Mickey Walker Beats Malone _ i Newark, N'. ,1., Oct. 30.—Mickey !

STAGG LOSING SLEEP TRYING TO FIGURE WAY TO STOP GRANGE IN ANNUAL ILLINI-CHICAGO GAME Maroon Coach Attempting to Develop Scoring Medium With Two Dropkickers, Caruso- and Curley—Latter’s Toe Tied Ohio State Contest—Chicago Is Minus Good i Passers. 1 ' IIC AGO, Oct. 30. — You can take the other f e 11 o w's watch, wallet and what not with an unloaded gun. provided he Isn't aware of the in nocuous condition of the weapon in question. But the entire "Big Ten" conference knows that the Univer sity of Chicago has neither passers who can pass nor punters who can punt and is conduct ing itself accordingly. "Nowadays," said Alonso Stagg, the old man of collegiate football, as he yawned behind a weary hand. you Ciidt' get along with merely a tunning attack. You must have at least the threat of something else." That Is one of the old man's problems. The other Is more or less of a community affair it has to do with the possible business of stop plug Harold (Red) Grange of Illinois, probably the greatest ball runner the western conference has known since the days of Willie Heston. Stage makes no attempt to evade the fact that Ills present outfit is not a typical Chicago team. It lias all kinds nl power between the two 20-yard lines but when the de fense t reeps tip under its guns, power alone will not do. In the emergency, he is trying to , develop a scoring medium with i two dropklclters, Caruso and Cur- i ley, tlip latter having tied Ohio Stale with a field goal last Satur day. Caruso kicks them from alt angles in practice and front no 1 angles whatever during a game. S M’GILL TO MEET CHAMP TONIGHT "Pat" McGill, W:sner. Neb., heavy weight wrestler, will get Ills f-econd chance at the world's championship title in Chicago tonight when he meets Champ Ed (Strangler) Lewis in the main bout of a mat show. McGill met Lewis several months ago and lost to the champion. Twelve Pointer ins Race. London, Oct. 30.—The Cambridge-! shire, one nf the best known races on the British turf, was won today by Twelve Pointer. Bachelor's fort ran second and Verdict third Curley would seem to be more con sistent. The rest of the backfleld punch is supplied by Harry Thomas and Mc Carty. line plungers. McCarthy is quite a line cracker but they have to get him right out of there when the other team has the ball. Thomas Is a good man In the open field, once he breaks off tackle. Kernwedn, slightly injured at the moment, is a regular back. So Is McKinney, a sprinter; Clarke, leading punter among few, if any; Rouse, Francis, Law, Gordon and Marks. There is little to choose among those men tloned. Abbott, ex-tackle, ex guard and ex end, is Stagg s quarterback. It being figured that a heavy man is needed for the interference. His understudy is he of the gifted toe. Bob Curley. Robert also is something of a punter. The ends, Barnes and Iiarto, are so indifferent on defense that Stage is juggling with the idea of swing- ' ing Law from fullback to one of the wings, probably Itarto's. Henderson, active, intelligent, is the best forward in the squads. He plays one of the tackles. The other is taken care by Gowdy, weighty and consistent; the guards are Pon detik, I’okrass and RoHeston, the latter having been injured in the Missouri game. At center, Goodman appears only on defense, Gowdy shifting over to pass the ball on attack. Emerlck, another good man. lost the Missouri game by poor pasting and now is in very bad repute. Most of the men mentioned are vet erans, the list including Baines, Bar to. Law. Gowdy, Henderson, Hibben Pondelik, RoHeston, Abbot, Thomas and McCarty.
