COLLEGE SCANDAL IS
DUE TO RIVALRY IN
2 ILLINOIS TOWNS
CHICAGO, Jan. 28. (By The Associated Press) The
bitter rivalry between two small towns, which became so
acute! that approximately $100,000 was bet on a football
game, was the real cause of the athletic scandal which re
sulted in disqualification last night of nine University of
Illinois athletes and which threatens to reach into Notre
Dame university. .
A group of citizens of Carlinville, Ills., it was learned to
night, decided last fall financially to "clean out" the rival
town of Taylorville, by obtaining 10 college stars to play
on- their football team, and with victory apparently" assured,
to bet the limit on the annual contest. But Taylorville learned
of, the plan, obtained nine college stars and not only de
feated Carlinville but is said to have won nearly $50,000 by
covering every Carlinville bet made.
Ten Notre Dame players were

lorville 10 to 7 at Carlinville.
Taylorville then boasted that
next year with their team at home
there!; would be a different story.
jieral Carlinville people con
ceived the "safe bettlnK',N idea of
filling their lineup with college
stars. Overtures were made to
Notre Dame men, according to
backers of the Carlinville team,
and It was agreed to pay 10 men
$200 each plus their expenses,
the total bein's $2700.
i-i The persons who arranged the
affair passed the word to their
friends to bet the limit. A special
train was hired and a band taken
to .Taylorville. Farmers arranged
to join the pilgrimage and In
nearly tevery case a well filled
wallet was taken alonp.

their tam against nationally
known college players. Then, a
few citizens decided also to seek
a little college aid.
Quietly the word was passed
not to fear Carlinville, that a
means of defeating their rivals
had been found.
When the time for the game
came, a group of Carlinville citi
zens began checking up In one
cormr of the field. They found
their citizens had bet nearly $50.
000. In another section some Tay
lorville citizen reached the same
conclusion.
Taylorville in the first half used
its regular home town team. At
the end of the half Taylorville led
7 to 0. Then out on the field
trotted nine stars from the Uni

held und.ir cover.

Independence Breaks Ar
rangement to Play Yellow
Jackets Tuesday Night
A game with the American le
gion team from Independence had
been scheduled with the Yellow
jacket team in SValem for Tii3sday
night, but Saturday it was can
celed by the legion team, by tele
graph, with no reason assigned.
The Legionaires won the first
game at Independsnce a short
time back, partly by good, fast
play, but largely by weight,
which they couldn't help having.
The Yellowjackets have been plan
ning to get their scalp in the re
turn game, but now have to give
it. up. as the visitors aren't going
to visit right now. It is probable
that the second of the series will
tie arranged for at a later date.
The Mingers are to play the
McMinnville legion team at Mc
Minnville February 8. The I,e
pionaires lost the first game by
an air-tight score, 2S to 27, in a
hair-raising finish that doesn't
prove that they would do it again.
The locals have- been playing a
fa.-.t, clean game that will make
the best of them hustle to keep
up- with, and this next clash with
the McMinnville warriors ought
to be one of the classiest games
of the winter.
