Chicago, Oct. 20. Hopeful rather
than .confident, the University of
Chicago foot ball team departed to
day to meet Princeton on Saturday
with a squad of 36 players and
coaches, headed by Coach Stagg and
Captain McGuire. Training efforts
the past week have been largely de
voted to stiffening the Maroons'
scrimmage line to withstand the
Tiger offensive in the first periods,
while the backfield has planned a
punting and forward passing game.
Coach Stagg declared he was
strongly hopeful of a victory if
favored by breaks of the game and
felt that he had a strong eleven.

Result of Injuries
Coach James Drummond's Com

Captain Emery's end and in the
event that the shifty line plunger is
unable to go into battle with Mar
quette, Mahoney will get a chance.
Coach Baldrige expects Marquette
to prove a much stronger opponent
than the Kansas Aggies.
"We have three bone-crushing bat
tles ahead," the lawyer-coach said
"One is with Marquette, the second
with the Oklahoma Aggies and the
third with the University ol bouth
Dakota."
Out for Revenge.
Creighton is especially anxious to
chastise the Milwaukee outfit, as
they administered a 21 to 0 defeat
to the local last year.
Although the clash with St. Xav
ier's college at Cincinnati will.be a
hard one, it will not rival these three.
St Xavier's claim to fame this year
lies in its battle with Center college
"wonder eleven." Although ; going
down to defeat, it gave the Bible
students a run for their money.
Marquette is looking upon Satur
day's clash as a stepping stone to its
game with Notre Dame. . .

Minneapolis, "Minn., Oct. 20. The
University of Minnesota : foot .ball
team, which meets the University of
Imiiana at Northrop field Saturday,
is being worked into shape for the
strong opposition Indiana is expect
ed to furnish.
The unexpected defeat suffered by
the Minnesota team last Saturday
against Ohio State has given Head
Coach Williams and his staff of
assistants material to work on in
correcting his defensive play and de
veloping a penetrating ottense. Ihe
injury to Arnold Oss, left halfhack,
who has been out of the play since
the Northwestern game, in the onin
ion of Dr. Williams, is responsible
for the poor showing Minnesota
made last Saturday on the offense.
Minnesota's attack was built about
Oss, and without his dashing play
the Maroon and Gold was unable to
develop an offensive which . could
carry through Ohio's defense. Min
nesota's inability to stop Ohio State
is said to have been due to the weak
ness of the ends, who are green, but
show promise of development. .' .

Trounces University of
Omaha in Hard-Fought
Game, 10 to 0.
By RALPH. WAGNER.
Trinity college gridsters cf Sioux
City ran rough shod over the Uni
rertity of Omaha warriors at the
Western league base ball park ye
trrday before a small crowd of fans.
The kcore was 10 to 0 in favor of
the lowana.
During the initial half cf the con
test the blue-jerseyed athletes from
up north outplayed and outgener
aled Coach Ernie Adams' Maroons
in all departments of the game
The speedy Trinity backfield and
the well-fortified front wall of the
Sioux City team were too much for
the pigskin battlers from out North
Twenty-fourth street way.
boon after the kick-off at the
start of the first period of play the
Maroons marched down the field
to the visitor's 20-yard line. A line
plunge with Banner lugging the
oval advanced the locals to the six-
yard mark for a first dpwn. Be
lieving a forward pats would spell
1 touchdown for his team, Quarter
back Maxwell yelled for a flip. A
Trinity battler intercepted the pass
and the tide of battle turned against
the Maroons.
Maroons Held For Downs.
By a series of line smashes, end
uns and one or two forward passes,
Trinity carried the ball to Omaha's
5-yard line where the Maroons held
for downs. Davis booted the pig
skin to the center of the field where
Hickey of the Iowans was standing
ready to return the ball. He
grabbed the oval out of the air and
wiggled his way through the entire
University of Omaha aggregation
for the first and only touchdown of
the game. Jones kicked the goal
and the locals were on the short
end of the score.
In the second quarter after an ex
change of punts, Trinity advanced
to Omaha's 20-yard line, where
Jones brought his educated toe into
play and kicked a dandy goal irorn
placement, thus bringing his team's
score to the 10 mark, where it re
mained for the rest of the game.
From the start of the second half
the teams played on more of an
even basis with first Trinity and
then Omaha . carrying the ball.
With only eight minutes left in
which to play, the Maroons, in a
last minute effort to chalk tip a
tally, opened up with a dazzling
aerial attack that kept the Iowans
guessing. By this method and line
plunges, Coach Adams' men ad
vanced to Trinity's eight-yard line,
where McDermott of the visitors in
tercepted a forward flip and re
turned the ball to the center of the
field. The eame ended with the
ball in Trinity's possession in the
center of the field. '
Hickey Speedy Back.
In Left Halfback Hickey, the
Trinity coach has one of the fastest
backfield then seen in these parts
for some time. Time and time again
this , little player squirmed . and
dodged his way through the Ma
roon aggregation for long gains.
Lewis and McDermott also played
whale of a game for the winners,.
For the losers, Banner, Davis
and Pressley played their usual
eood game, with Dowd and Laws
showing up well on the line. Dowd
was injured in the last half and
carried off the field,

Johnny Rawlings Played Through
Scries With Bad Injury Kept
It Conceale
By FRANK O. MENKE.
(Copyrlcht, l:i. by King KeaturM rn.
diri, Ine.)
As to heroes
T Here's a story about Johnny
Rawlings, second baser of the
Giants, a story of sameness and
courage and fishting spirit.
It was in the club house of the
Giants after the seventh game had
been won and won by the brilliant,
darina- base running of Kiwline.
Kawllngs was on tirst in the sev
enth Inning of the combat, with the
score tied, suydcr smacked one to
left center for a legitimate single.
With the crack of the bat Rawlings
was on his way, lie turned second,
tore for third, and kept chugging
riant alonir for the plate.
It seemed like suicide for Rawl
ings to attempt to score. But, Raw!
ings reasoned that if he did make a
try for it the Yankee out:iciuers
would become excited and throw
the ball wild.
And that's exactly what happened.
The heave from the earden was
wide and a bit short, and Rawlings
skipped over the plate with the
tally that won the game, and per
haps the series for the Oiants.
It was in the club house

Yost's Crew on
Edge for Clash
With Buckeyes
Ann Arbor, Mich.. Oct. 20. After
a month of intensive training, dur
ing which the slogan has been,
"Beat Ohio," Coach 'Fielding H.
("Hurry U p")
Yost has round
ed the UniversM
ty of Michigan
team into form
for the clash with
the Columbus
squad winner of
last vear's "Bie
Ten" title, here '
next Saturday.
Next to win
ning the Wsfrt
em conference
c h a m pionship,
Michigan' would
rather emerge
victorious from
the Ohio game
than to gain any other laurel this
season. The spirit arises from the
two defeats handed the Wolverines
by the Buckeyes in 1919 and 1920.
The Ohio State game will inau
gurate the Western Conference sea
son for - Michigan. Thousands of
alumni will be on hand to witness
the struggle, as it will mark the end
oi Michigan home-coming week
and also dedication- of the new Ferry
field stands. The stands have been
enlarged to permit seating of 42,000
spectators. ,
Trims Squad to Thirty-two.
After two preliminary games with
Mount Union and Case, Coach Yost
began whipping his machine into
shape for the first conference battle.
During the last two weeks the pro
gram has consisted of hard scrim
mages, intensive signal practice and
attention to weaknesses of individ
ual players.
The Michigan squad has been cut
to thirty-two men, only players who
have shown : exceptional promise
have been retained, to permit - the
mentor to concentrate upon a smaller
maching.
The Wolverines have trained 'for
the Ohio State clash as though the
"Big Ten" title were at stake. Yost
is satisfied he will present a formida
ble eleven.
Scouted Ohio Game,
Michigan scouts who visited the
Ohio camp two weeks ago returned
with the report that the Columbus
machine may be expected to give a
good account of itself. As a result
of the report the Michigan coaches
have sought development of a de
fense that is relied upon to stop
Ohio's rushes and an offense that
will bring winning points.
Michigan's team this year comes
near to those of the championship
winning days of ten and fifteen years
ago. ': The only weakness so far
shown has been in the forward wall
and Yost has devoted most of his
energies at this point.
lo date the Wolverines have re
vealed few new plays, relying upon
straight foot ball to crush their op
ponents.

unable to play Saturday. Gordon,
who was sent in to replace him had

Seventy or more andiron battles
between high schools are on the slate
for today, six of which are of un-
usual importance, each having a di
rect bearing on the state champion
ship. Among this number two are at
Omaha, Creighton playing North
Platte at Creighton field, and Com
merce vieing with Beatrice at
League park.
South High journeys to Columbus
today for a tilt with the Columbus
High 'team and Central High goes
to Des Moines this evening for a
confab with North Saturday.
Contenders Playing.
The Beatrice-Commerce. North
Platte-Creighton, Cambridge-Curtis
Aggie, and Grand Island-Lincoln
combinations hold the interest of in
terscholastic followers this week, as
Commerce, Cambridge, Grand Is
land, Lincoln and North Platte arc
looked upon as contenders for state
laurels.
Central is the other contender, but
since its game with North at Des
Moines has no bearing on the cham
pionship race, it is temporarily ou:
of the limelight.
Cambridge, last year s champion.
has set a fast stride again this year,
although its goal was touched last
week for the first time in two years.
Omaha Teams Undefeated.
North Platte won from Ansley.
33 to 19, Grand Island and Beatrice
fought to a tie, while the two
Omaha teams have kept a winning
pace.
Ihe Lincoln-brand Island game
appears to mean the life or rejection
of its representatives in the whirl.
and the favors hang with the latter
team in point of tallies.
