Texas Christian Wins Over Indiana, 1876 BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Oct. g. Opportune passing and some deceptive running after a bullet aerial gave Texas Christian Uni versity a mud-splattered 1875 football victory over Indiana’s Hoosiers today. Little Indy Berry, T. c. US nomination to fill the shoes of Sammy Baugh at the Fort Worth school, was responsible for a third-period pass that broke In diana’s back. Berry, slightly i’ll from tooth trouble at the start of the game. sat out most of the first period but his quarterback post was we’ll filled by 19-year-old Dan Wilde. The Graham, Tex, substitute for the Wichita Falls wizard threw the pass that opened scoring in the first period. A half-hour- long rain soaked the gridiron about an hour before game time and took away much of T. C. US aerial threat. The ground was too soggy for the pass receivers to get a good footing. but 10000 fans waited out the rain to watch the game.
