Illini-Purple to Play Before 60,000 Rooters Saturday Decked in gala colors, the Univer- sity of Illinois campus awaits the throng of homecoming visitors, at- tracted by the famous Illini reunion of which the central feature is of course the Illinois--Northwestern game. One of the largest crowds in Illinois history will see the battle--at least 60, 000 and probably more. It is probable that some tickets will still be available Saturday at the gate. This is the first appearance of Northwestern in the stadium. The wildcats last played on old Illinois field in 1922. Last year relations were re- sumed when the Illini invaded the haunts of the Wildcats at Evanston and won, 7 to 6, in an exciting game. This was the only Big Ten game in which the Illinois champions were ever behind. Northwestern met defeat at the hands of Ohio State this year largely because of fumbles but it was agreed by critics that otherwise the Wildcats might well have claimed victory It is expected that the invaders will be far stronger now. The performances of Henry Bruder, Northwestern halfback, of Pekin, will be watched with much interest. Bru- der was regarded as the most promis- ing high school back in the state when he entered Northwestern a year ago. Illinois' team, it is expected, will be strengthened by the return of several reserve backs who have been crippled. The usual complete arrangements have been made to take care of the throng. Free parking places will be maintained where cars will be under guard with protection from fire. All routes in the two cities will be plainly marked. The stadium will be open Saturday morning and those who desire mav take their seats early and eat their lunches at the stands conducted by the athletic association. The Illinois and Northwestern bands will stage special formations and mu- sic in honor of the homecomers. More than 10.000 Northwestern students, alumni and other supporters will come. Maroons P-nmise Rattle in Boilermakers' Tilt Though the crushing defeat at the hands of Minnesota would not indi- cate the fact, the Maroons now claim to be one of the strongest teams in the Big Ten. The one problem fac- ing. Stagg is that of injuries, for in addition to the seven regulars who could not play against Minnesota, several more were injured by the Gophers. When Purdue comes to Stagg Field this Saturday, it will meet a team seasoned by a series of tough Rares and just beginning to find it- self. The Boilermakers furnished the big upset of the week by holding the highly touted Wisconsin team to a tie. A good running attack, led by the famous "Pest" Welsh, and Jimmy Phelan's usual short passing game, will be the weapons of the Boiler- makers. But Stagg's passing game had the Gophers running in circles last week, and only the inexperienced numerous substitutes kept the Maroons from running up a lot of scores. That passing formation had to be developed on Thursday and Friday, because in- juries had kept the backfield men out of action most of the week.
