WORKS IN Miinesota and Michigan Are Forced to Hold Indoor Practice SECRET Chicago, Nov. 16.—()—Tradi- tional tootball weather is at last at hand in Western Conference terri- tory as a setting for the traditional closing games of the season Satur- day. The Big Ten squads have en- tered their last days of hard scrim- mage, in rain and mud with the thermometer dropping before a cold wave sweeping eastward to add its chilling hazard to the uncertain- ties of the final day. At Indiana the Hoosiers have filled their ranks with some of the finest sophomore talent in the con- ference. Only a bare few of the important players of other Big Ten schools are laid out for the season’s finale, but there are several who are close to being “burned out,” by rea- son of having carried the burden of their team’s play. Ohio State has posted a military td around tena ee ct eep spectators, the players having decided among themselves that practice morale would be ‘better if none was looking on. Illinois, their opponent of cary is cheered over the return to the squad of Douglas Mills, the star punter, who had n called home by the death of his father. : Both Michigan and Minnesota, contestants in the other big game of the day having championship ibilities, were forced to do most of their drill indoors, because snow at Minneapolis and mud at Ann Arbor. The Michigan coachin; staff borrowed the Chicago footbal! field blanket to spread over the in their new stadium, so that good playing conditions under- foot are assured, at least for the opening kickoff. It will be the 19th meeting between these two, Michi- gan having won on 14 occasions. The ‘Volverines have never been held scoreless in this annual strug- gle for yearly possession of the little brown jug. 2 The Chicago squad has decided that its losing streak has run far enough, and a warm session is being prepared for Wisconsin.

Iowa l-oks hopefully forward to Satur- day, following the unexpected vic- tery over Wisconsin last week. Purdue and Indiana continued scrimmage in the mud, pointing for the Hoosier classic between them- selves. One substitution, in place of Ringwalt, guard, who has a broken ankle, is certain on the In- diana team, but Purdue’s varsity all present and seaworthy.
