THE RISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1934 NO WAY 70 BRING POWERFUL ELEVENS TOGETHER IN TILTS Greater Latitude in Post-Sea- son Play Would Solve Many Grid Arguments LOOP TITLES IN DISPUTE Stanford and Washington Clash for West Coast Leadership Saturday New York, Nov. 6—(?)—Owing to ar almost complete lack of psychic or crystal-gazing powers among col- lege football’s schedule-makers, a number of outstanding “naturals” will be missed along the main battle- fronts this season. There's nothing strange about this, inasmuch as most major college games are booked several years in advance, but it must make profes- sional promoters as well as certain graduate managers tear their hair to contemplate the fact that there's no way to bring together Alabama and Minnesota, Stanford and Princeton or Rice and Santa Clara unless the Tournament of Roses committee Goesn't do something aicout it for the annual New Years’ Day classic. Any one of these pairings would pack the house. Greater latitude in post-season play | ‘would solve a lot of the gridiron argu- ments usually left over unsettled. at the end of each campaign. So far, however, academic or traditional bar- riers have been too strong for’ willing coaches or players to hurdle. It's no certainty, for instance, that either Minnesota or Princeton would con- sider an invitation to the Rose Bowl this winter, assuming cach finishes the season "ndefeated as now appears Ukely. Princeton turned down a bid to play Stanford last New Year's day. Loop ‘Naturals’ Loom Events have combined to produce two conference naturals this week, one bringing together Rice and Ar- kansas for a decisive southwest bat- tle and the other matching Stanford and Washington, both unbeaten, in @ tussle for the Pacific coast leader- ship. Two other undefeated teams, Syracuse and Michigan State, are bracketed next Saturday, while another intersectional attraction finds Tulane coming up from the south to battle Colgate’s Red Raiders in the Yankee stadium. ‘These are exceptions, however. In the east, Navy's first unbeaten team in years doesn't meet Princeton, although the two schools have played many times previously. Minnesota is! not scheduled with either of its two rivals for Big Ten leadership, Pur- due and Illinois. Duke and Wash- ington é& Lee, twin pace-setters in the southern conference, have no way of settling their argument. Similarly, in the southeastern group, Alabama does not play either Tulane or Louis- ees the Tide's two rivals for the Army and Navy still have some Tisks to run before they meet at Philadelphia Dec. 1, but the service @ame this year should be one of the most keenly-contested since their famous 21-21 tie at Chicago eight years ago.

Scranton, Penn. Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 6—(?)— While the University of North Da- kota football squad is adopting a Policy of “watchful waiting,” candi- dates for two other Nodak sports, basketball and boxing, are swinging into the preliminary stages that pre- cede the actual season. The Sioux gridders, having com- pleted their North Central confer- ence schedule with a record of three victories and one defeai, must await the outcome of the North Dakota State-Souti Dakota State game on November 10. If the North Dakotars win, the conference title goes to the Fargo team. If South Dakota top- ples the Bison, then the champion- ship returns to the University after an absence of two years ‘The football team will be inactive ‘until November 15, wheu it leaves for the east, first to mee; St. Thomas at Scrantoa, Pa. on November 17, and then the George Washington team on November 23.

Dartmouth’s defeat by Yale robs the east of an expected “natural.” ‘The big Green team had been ex- pected to ride through the Eli ob- atacle and continue unbeaten for the climax game with Princeton on Nov. 24. Meanwhile the terrible Tig- ers, who should be on a diet of raw meat, fulfill an obligation by playing little Lehigh this week and then turn their thoughts to Old Eli Yale. Just what Princeton is going to do about bolstering its schedule, more in keeping with its man-power, remains to be seen.

Four Reserves Report Four reserves from last year's team, Jack Charbonneau and Gordon Aamoth, guards, Lloyd Spielman, forward, and Jake Stocker, center, are also available, while four pro- | ducts of last year's freshmen, Bob| Campbell, Walt Halverson, Emmet Birk, and Les Pond are expected to Play important roles this winter. Alvie Dahl, freshman star two years ago, has returned to school and is counted upon to girengthen the Sioux guard material. Some 20 prospective mitt slingers have reported to Howard H. Rus- sell, boxing coach. Last year, the uni- versity enjoyed its most successful boxing season in the institution's history and so appealing was the sport to the local fans that high hopes are entertained for this win- ter. Led Captain Kenny Brown, holder of the Northwest golden gloves middleweight championship, as well as the middleweight title in the northwest diamond belt and North Dakota golden gloves tournaments, the Sioux boxing squad is looking forward to a number of intercolleg- iate matches, none of which has been definitely arranged as yet. Two other members cf the Nodak squad, Ben Blanchette, heavyweight, and Owen Trickey, featherweight, hold northwest golden gloves and northwest diamond belt champion- ships. In addition to these, Coach Russell hag two North Dakota cham- pions in Joe Miltenberger, welter- weight, and Ray Crummy, light- weight.

The Boilermakers play only four conference games this season, two of them already won. Their remaining opponents, Iowa and Indiana, figure to go the way of Wisconsin and Chi- cago. Minnesota and Illinois, how- ever, tied with Purdue for the Big ‘Ten leadership, meet five league op- ponents, and appear more than likely to wind up with five straight vic- tories, Both the Minnesota and Illini schedule stack up as considerably more difficult than Purdue's. Schedule Made in 1932 The current schedule was made two years ago. At that time the Purdue representatives were not only willing, but eager to schedule another Big Ten game, or even two more. For one rea- son or another, it couldn’t be ar- ‘When Purdue, away to a wobbly start, fot which injuries to stars were more than @ little responsible, was defeated by Rice Institute and Notre Dame, it didn’t appear to make much difference how many or few games the Boilermakers played in the con- ference. After the Notre Dame de- feat, however, the “touchdown twins,” Duane Purvis and Jim Carter, recov- ered from injuries. The Boilermakers then whipped Wisconsin, Carnegie Tech and Chicago. So, unless something as unexpected as defeats for Minnesota's mighty men or the fighting Illini, the Boiler- makers’ claim, if any, may appear a Mttle light.
