WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1925 PURPLE TRAIN FOR BIG YEAR South Dakota Is First Test for N. U. Gridders Two inter-sectional grid games are on the Northwestern university foot- ball schedule this fall which, in sev- eral aspects, is one of the stiffest lists of games faced by a Purple eleven in years. The two contests, which will bring teams from different sections of the country, are those with the University of South Dakota, October 3, and Tulane university, October 24. The South Dakota game opens the fall schedule and is to be played at North- western field in Evanston. The Pur- ple will journey to Stagg field on the Midway for the Tulane game since the home stands will not handle the large crowds which will attend the contest. Tulane will send a strong team northward for the Northwestern en- gagement. The lads from New Or- leans have an enviable reputation in southern football circles and should provide the Purple with plenty of op- position. ; Coach Thistlethwaite planned to push his men hard from the start of practice this week in order to get them in condition for the opening game. Last season the gridders from the Northwest gave the Purple a hard fight for the season's opener and, with many veterans back again this fall, the game should be closely contested throughout. Meet Carleton Eleven The week following the Dakota en- gagement will see the Carleton col- lege eleven on Northwestern field for a test of conference football. The Minnesota gridders have long been one of the leaders among the smaller institutions of the Northwest and for this reason Coach Thistlethwaite added them to the Purple schedule for an early season game. Following the Carleton game the Purple will plunge into the confer- ence season by taking on the Chicago Maroons, last season's Big Ten cham- pions. The game between the two in- stitutions for the Chicago champion- ship has always been one of intense rivalry. Last year the Maroons won from the Purple by a 3 to 0 score on a drop kick in the closing minutes of play. On the next Saturday, October 24, another trip will be made to Stagg field, this time to take on Tulane. Michigan Here Indiana will provide the homecom- ing entertainment for the Purple on October 3 at Northwestern field. The following Saturday, November 7, will see Thistlethwaite and his men back in Chicago, this time to meet Mich- igan on Soldiers' field, at Grant Park. Another out-of-town trip will be made on November 14, when the Pur- ple hop down to Lafayette to meet Purdue university. For the last two years Purdue has won from the Pur- ple in their annual engagement and this fall will see the two rivals again battling for supremacy. The final game of the year will be played at South Bend against Coach Knute Rockne's Notre Dame eleven. Last season the Purple gave the fa- mous Notre Dame team its hardest game of the season, holding the four horsemen to a 13 to 6 score. New Trier Starts Grid Play Against Lake View Walter Aschenbach, new football coach at New Trier high school, took charge of the squad this week and has been holding strenuous practice every day. The first game of the season will be played this Saturday afternoon on the New Trier field when Lake View high school of Chicago will do battle with the local eleven. Lake View had a strong team last year and is expected, to put up a stiff fight Saturday, but Coach Aschenbach is hopeful of victory. How'd You Like to Fly to New York Air Races?
