The annual rush to set it-up is well under way. If Knute Rockne were alive he would suggest the boys are beginning to col- lect their breath and clipping for the final race for seats at the all-star table. November, bringing on tradition and severe tests for the collegiate football talent, will give the experts their best chance to weigh the evi- dence accumulated so far, whether it’s eminently fair or not, the fact is that first impressions linger long- est. On the basis of reports at hand. the middle west again will play a strong hand in the All-Ameica po- pularity rolls, mainly because of the attention attracted by Minnesota's juggernaut. The Gopher captain, Francis (Pug) Lund and his team- mate, Frank (Butch) Larson, at end, were on the all-star rolls last year. Both are conspicuous again but the tom-toms are also being beaten for two other stalwarts in the Minnesota cast, Stan Kostka at fullback and Bill Bevan at guard. Kostka’s line- cracking exploits are such as to de- velop comparisons with two celebrat- ed predecessors, Herb Joesting and Bronko Nagurski, both All-Americans in their day. ‘Warburton Falters Cotton Warburton, all-American quarterback on @ high-ranking South- erm California team in 1933, isn’t being heard-about so much this year because the Trojans have taken & nose dive.

AN’ HES WUTH RESERVE POWER IS BIG FACTOR Shields Considers IN MICHIGAN STATE’S SUCCESS| Entering Movies Backman, Former Kansas State Mentor, Gets Steam Roll- er Underway East Lansing, Mich., Oct. 30.—The Spartans are on the prod. Shields carried high, the chisel-chinned war- riors of Michigan State have picked up the Wolverine banner where Mich- igan dropped it this year, and are marching to victory in one gridiron battle after another. It has taken Charley Bachman, for- mer Kansas State and Florida mentor, two years to get his steam roller un- der way. And right up there on top of the heap, undefeated and untied, rest the men of Sparta today. Just another Michigan State eleven, fairly well versed in the Notre Dame system, the Sunday coaches’ conven- tion was told, following Michigan State's 33-20 victory over little Grin- nell College. But they mumbled in their beards the following week when they woke up on the Sabbath to find State had defeated Michigan, 16-0. And when the Spartans followed with a 13-0 victory over Carnegie Tech, and a 39-0 rout of Manhattan, the team took on @ large list of unofficial almuni. Win-Spirit There What's the reason for this sudden uprising? Possibly it can be explained in the words of Coach Bachman, “I have been in the coaching game for 17 years, but I never have seen the like of the spirit this squad pos- sesses,” he says. “From seniors to the last sophomore in line, the squad has a burning desire to play the game. The boys have shown that spirit from the first day of practice this fall, and T predict they will be hard to beat.” Two other coaches agree that the Spartans are going to be hard to beat. One is Fielding H. Yost, athletic di- rector of the University of Michigan, who, after the Wolverines’ defeat at the hands of the Spartans, remarked: “That's the most dangerous Mich- igan State I ever have seen. They have an unlimited number of good backs. It seems that the string of ball toters gets better as Bachman showers them on the field.” Chick Meehan evidently agreed with Yost after the Spartan soundly drubbed his Manhattan team. “It’s the ebst team I ever saw in New York,” Chick declared. The Spartans’ reserve strength was very well demonstrated to Meehan. After Kurt Warmbein, star backfield ace who's headed for an All-America berth, was removed from the game ‘Weinstock, Pittsburgh; Clark, Navy; ‘Elser, Notre Dame; Stancook, Army. mt YOU'RE TELLING ME Yale can’t count a lot on its fresh- man squad to supply material for the varsity next year. ...

Wilson Blocks Kick In Dickinson Game OUT OUR WAY 7 KILLED TH BEAR, pa HE'S pean! OME ON BAC! after an injury, Bachman called in such sophomores as Steve Sebo, Dick Edwards, and Albert Agett. With these kids working with the veterans Jim McCray, Negro fullback; Dick Colina, Russ Reynolds, Don ‘Wiseman, Fred Zeibel, and Art Bran- stetter, the touchdown parade started. Plenty of Reserves Bachman’s reserve strength has been made by developing six players who huddled on the bench most of last season into regular stars. Russ Reynolds, quarterback, is one of these. The others are Dick Colina, halfback; Gordon Reavely, tackle; Gordon Dahlgren, the guard who was a full- back last season; Joe Buzolits, cen- ter, and Lou Zarza, end. One of the ceadliest of Bachman’s weapons is the passing attack of Kurt Warmbein to Ed Klewicki, the senior flanker. Klewicki, wighing 195 pounds, has been on the end of 14 forwards thrown by Kurt for a total of 203 yards. Against Michigan, they staged their act three times in suc- cession for a gam of 62 yards. As in all schools employing the Notre Dame offense, blocking is the Paramount requisite in offensive tac- tics, and the deadly bolcking of Dahl- Bren and Sid Wagner, guards, is the main reason why the Spartan backs can go to town. State has a tough row to hoe this fall, playing a 10-game schedule that takes the team over 10,000 miles. The next game is against Marquette here, Nov. 3, and then follow Syracuse, Kansas, Detroit, and Texas A. & M. Mako Ranks No. 1 in College Tennis Intercollegiate Committee Picks Southern California's Pair in Doubles New York, Oct. 30.—()—Gene Mako, the curly-haired Californian, who won the 193¢ intercollegiate title and is regarded by officials as a likely future internationalist, dominates the Ameri- can intercollegiate tennis world.

Wolverines Book Two East Teams for 1935 Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 30.—(#)—The University of Michigan, long one of the leading football schools of the middle west, will engage two eastern schools in intersectional gridiron games next year, but according jathletic director Fielding H. Yost, the 1935 schedule does not indicate that the Maize and Blue is going in for cross-country football competi- tion on a large scale. “It just happened that way,” he xplained Tuesday after formal ai nouncements were made that Michi- gan would start football relations with Columbia in New York City, and re- new relations with Pennsylvania, the contracts in each case to open a home- and-home series in 1f By Williams ¢ | ° Sees Illini Lose to Cadets by Close Score in Saturday’s Encounter DARTMOUTH TO WIN AGAIN Columbia Gets Edge Over Cor- nell; Princeton Should Triumph Over Harvard By JOCK SUTHERLAND Head Coach, University of Pitteburgh Pittsburgh, Oct. 30.—The first Sat- urday in November will dish up the greatest bill of fare in football so far this year. There are five intersectional com- bats this week-end, three of them bringing together six of the leading teams of the country. Notre Dame brings its Irish to our backyard here, and I am looking for @ game equally as tough as that en- counter with Minnesota. After los- ing to Texas in the opener, Elmer Layden has brought his team along at a steady pace. The Notre Dame System is clicking smoothly this year, and my scouts report that the Irish are using from 40 to 55 players in each . Layden will have more and bigger football players than Pitt, and just as much experience. I'm picking Notre} Dame in a close one. Fordham has a chance to make up| for its loss to St. Mary’s by beating Tennessee. The Volunteers will be hard pressed, after two tough Satur- days against Alabama and Duke, to muster enough power to best the Rams. I'm picking Crowley's eleven. Army Given Edge Army ‘travels out west to Illinois. This is likely to go either way. Illi- Nols almost won last fall, and ought to be better, while Army possibly is not as strong. The Illini, however, have had a couple of tough ones, and might not be back in form. Army, hesitatingly. In other games, Navy should be too tough for W. & L., the same team that Princeton was lucky to beat, and. ro it should overpower Oklahoma A&M, In the middlewest, Chicago and Minnesota should stay at the top of the race for Big Ten honors by beat- ing Purdue and Michigan. Towa and India! in a@ grudge-fight, but the Hoosiers will be too much for the faltering Hawkeyes, who are having difficulty living up to their early season prom- aredirieteen and Wisconsin meet in @ game that will have little bear- ing on the title race, and if either team wins, it will be Wisconsin. The two big games in the east will see Dartmouth and Princeton re- maining undefeated. I think Dart- mouth is going to make New England} Brown football history by defeating Yale for the first time. Princeton should have Uttle trouble in beating Harvard. Columbia will continue its winning ways by handing another defeat to ‘Cornell, and Carnegie Tech shouldn't find N. Y. U. very difficult. Alabama Over Kentucy There is little particularly exciting to watch for south of the Mason- Dixon line. Alabama will find Ken- Pel tucky below its par of other years, P Duke should have little trouble with Auburn, and Vanderbilt has nothing to fear from George Washington. One close battle looms on the. Pa- cific Coast. This should take place when California and Santa Clara to! meet. The Saints are tough, but C; ifornia is about due to win a really decisive victory, and may elect to make it this week-end. Washington likely will give Ore- gon State a trimming, and Stanford will keep pace with Washington by Ns | handing U. C. L. A. another defeat. Towa State, the same eleven that shell-shocked Iowa, is liable to do the same thing to Kansas, although in this case it will not be any sur- prise. Oklahoma will keep up with the Cyclones in the Big Six by whipping Missouri.
