...defence and offense. Captain Kyle's slowness in get-new rushline to break through repeatedly in time to threaten seriously or to halt entirely the forward progress of his kicks. The Indiana fullback was hurried almost every time he attempted to boot the ball back into Crimson territory, the Hoosier line simply being strong enough to hold off the University forwards...
...Hoosier eleven will line up on the first kick-off with a group of forwards who average more than 185 pounds from end to end. This means that the University must plow through a defence slightly heavier than that of Holy Cross last Saturday and just as agile. The Indiana linesmen are ruggedly built, are all experienced players, and notedly aggressive on both the attack and defence. They will also have a slight advantage over the University line in that they have played together in two games already this season with practically no shifts. On the other hand, beyond...
...this stage in the season to organize his wealth of material into a smooth-running machine which can stand up on even terms with the Crimson combination is a matter of conjecture. Coach Steihm's elevens have always been given to slow starts. For instance, last season the Hoosier eleven blew its chances of a tie for the Western Conference leadership by losing the first game against Iowa on account of one fumble at a critical point. After that disaster Indiana defeated three of the leading Conference teams in succession. Coach Steihm's greatest triumph, however, occurred in 1919 when...
...probable that tomorrow Coach Fisher will put his men through a regular scrimmage practice as the first step in his preparations for receiving the Indiana eleven in the Stadium on Saturday. The Hoosier team is expected to use a plain, straight, rushing attack in its attempt to smash through the Crimson line, and it will be Coach Fisher's principal purpose this week to strengthen his forwards, especially on the left side. The two big Holy Cross advances Saturday were both directed chiefly against the left side of the University line, which, although showing far more power than...
...story of Christ's birth from the Scriptures, and a selection from Milton's "Ode on Nativity." Miss Margaretta Josephine Penick, of the Emerson College of Oratory, will give "An Evening of Dialect." In this entertainment, Miss Penick will give her admirable interpretation of German, Italian, Scotch, negro, Irish, Hoosier and child dialects. E. I. Dale 2G, who makes a specialty of Western folklore, will give a sketch of cowboy and Indian life on the frontier. Speaking from his own wide experience in the Western States, he will make his part of the program interesting...
