  Sporting Writer Believes Pres byterians Have a Chance To Hold Michigan. COMPARED WITH EARLHAM. DOPE ON THIS AND THE INDIANA DEPAUW GAME is OF THE MOST INTEREST JUST AT THE PRESENT TIME. A sporting writer for the Indianapoils Star, comments on the Indiana football situation as follows: The football season opened in earn est Saturday. There were many sur prises. In the two games of most note played in this state .Wabash-Earlham and Indiana-De PAW contests a line could be had on the two leading teams of the state. Wabash clearly demonstrated that her men are in fine shape. Cayou’s teams always show championship form in the early games of the season and are always danger Gus opponents in early season games. They do not always hold this cham pionship form throughout the season. This was shown in 1905, when in the early season games they played Chicago, the Western champions, to stand still. While at the end of the season they were crushed by an overwhelming score by Indiana. Why this is I am not fully prepared to say. 1t may be because Of the hard training the men undergo so early in the season, causing them to go stale in the latter part Of their schedule. This year. Wabash most important contest comes early IN the season. On Oct 10, the Little Giants play Michigan at Indianapolis and from their showing in beating Earlham Be to O. in two short twenty minute halves it certainly looks as if they were ready to meet Yosts machine. The Wolver ines had a hard time beating Case in their opening game. Michigan, 9 Case, 0; does not sound like the scores the Michigan team would pile VI against a school like Case five years ago. 1t begins to look like even mon ely would be on the boards Oct. 10. Harqrave Is Speedy. In Saturdays game the work of Har grave, the former Rockville High school player, can not go unmentioned Hargrave is a second Ec1ersall. His running in a broken field is wonderful He broke away for two long runs, end | ing in touchdowns. He will be dan gerous man both on offense and defen sive all the time during the Michigan game. Burns. at right end, also die good work. Cayou certainly has hi team in great condition for such al early date. Now comes a game which will ties the strength of Wabash much NOR than is generally thought. Next Sat urday the, Little Giants meet Purdue In this contest Wabash can not us their freshman players because of tn ruling Of the Big Nine. How stroni Purdue is no one really knows. Judg ing from last year their team shoul be made up mostly of sophomore The class of 1903 had a great fresh , man team, while last seasons varsit , was undoubtedly the weakest that ey er represented the Boiler Makers.
