GAMES LAST WEEK GAVE SMALL LIGhT ON FINAL OUTCOME Minnesota, 7-0 Victors Over Huskers, Seek 20th Win Over Michigan IMPORTANT SECTIONAL TILTS Ohio State, Losers to Pitts- burgh 7-0, Tackles Northwestern sparring had Served Monday to separate some of the football chaff from the wheat, but the sectional championship races still were wide open witi no definite evi- dence pointing to the ultimate out- come in any one of them. Further light on the ‘situation will be shed this week in an imposing ar- ray of big-times games but the chances are that it will be late Nov- ember before the polls can safely be} closed. Looking toward the next gathering of the football clans here's how the ever-shifting picture appeared Mon- day. East—The leaders, for the moment at least, were Pittsburgh, Fordham, Army and Yale, with Navy, Holy Cross, Duquesne, Temple, Villanova, Princeton and Manhattan very much to be reckoned with, Pitt, which ruined Ohio State's na- tional championship aspirations with ‘a 6-0 victory before 71,000 at Colum- bus on Harold Stebbins’ 34-yard sprint to a fourth period touchdown, cannot afford a let-down this week against; Duquesne, even though Notre Dame and Fordham are in the immediate | offing. Monk Meyer Passes Army, piloted to a sensational 27-16) victory over Columbia by Monk Me: er’s talented passing arm, tackles Harvard, 28-0 conqueror of luckless Brown. Navy, which hung up a 35-14 triumph over Virginia for its third successive triumph over Southern conference opposition, may find the going tough against Yale's Bulldogs ‘who tripped Penn's powerhouse, 7-0. Victor over Dartmouth, 7-0, when Bill Osmanski galloped 80 yards with an intercepted pass, Holy Cross will be tested again by Manhattan. Tem- ple plays Boston college Monday and Carnegie Tech Friday night, while Villanova, which stopped Penn State, 13-0, tackles Western Maryland. Princeton, unimpressive in handing | a 20-0 beating to Rutgers, will need to do better against Penn. Fordham, 7-0 victor over Southern Methodist on Johnny Lock’s 76-yard run, cases off against Waynesburg. Dartmouth plays Brown, Baldwin-Wallace Surprises Other leading pairings will send Cornell, idle last week, against Syra- © cuse, unexpectedly upset by Baldwin- Colgate against Tu- Columbia ‘Wallace, 5 lane's sturdy Green Wav against Virginia Military; New York university against North Carolina, ‘nd George Washington against Ai kansas. Midwest—Northwestern, Purdue and Indiana are the current Big Ten} Jeaders with Minnesota and Ohio State ready to take a hand in the consecutive victory when Andy Uram ‘took a lateral pass from Wilkinson ‘and ran 75 yards to a touchdown, with only one minute, 8 seconds’ to play, for a 7-0 triumph over Nebraska, meets Michigan, beaten 14-3 by In- + 10-7. Texas play | odist tackles Vanderbilt, diana. Purdue's high-scoring array which ran up a 35-14 count on Wis- ‘consin, plays Chicago, checked by a! 6-6 draw with Butler. Ohio Siate ms its conference drive against formidable Northwestern while Iowa plays Mlinois, routed 24-6 by South- ern California, in the remaining con-| ference engagement. Badgers Play Notre Dame Indiana must play Nebraska while ‘Wisconsin finds Notre Dame, hard pressed to turn back Washington Uni- ‘versity, 14-6, next on the list. Oklahoma, nosed out by Texas, 6-0, and Kansas, toppled by Iowa State, 21-7, meet in the only Big Six con- ference engagement. Southwest—Texas A. & M., 3-0’ vic- | tor over Rice, is matched with Texas ‘Christian's Horned Frogs, who had to ‘come from far behind to nip Tulsa,} Baylor, nosed out | 10.

The Gophers pulled their 19th con- secutive win out of the fire with a Dick Merriwell finish as Bud Wilkin- son and Andy Uram collaborated to Jerk 53,200 fans out of their scats with a last minute touchdown. Michigan is not expected to provide | the stern opposition that Nebraska | gave Minnesota.

U.S. Averages Five Ace Shots Per Day Texas Leads Memt Membersh' pin A. P. National Hole-in-One Ciub New York, Oct. 12.— (A) — Aces, prize shots of golf, are produced in the United States at an approximate j rate of five a day, Since the Associated Press began collecting verified aces for its na- tional hole-in-one club, last January 1, 194 one-shoolers have been re- ported, or an approximate average Every state in the Un- has prodiced of five daily. ion, except Nevada, holes-in-one. Thirty-one hoies-in-one were re-j ported during the last week with Texas stiil leading the inter-state with 107 as against 103 members| from Indiana. New York was third with 93 as against 78 for Minnesota and 70 for California. Leon Underwood of Conrad, Mont., | scored the first ace in the five-year history of the Pondera Golf club, hol- ing out his tee shot from 165 yards on the sixth hole. Other new members included W. J. {Corroll, Vailey City, N. D., 3rd hole, 180 yards, college course. | Wilkinson Shifts From Guard to Quarterback Minneapolis, Oct. (P}—Charles | (Bud) Wilkinson is the answer to the {question: “Who can fill the shoes of Babe Levoir and Glenn Seidel at the Minnesota quarterback post When Levoir and Seidel were lost by graduation, Coach Bernie Bierman faced a difficult problem. Those two men were considered as possibly the na field generals in Minnesota's his- Tat fall, In the Northwestern game, the 200-pound Wilkinson, a brilliant and fast guard, intercepted a Northwestern pass and barged down the field like @ 10-ton truck until he was run out of bounds near the goal line. That gave Bierman an idea. Wilkinson, a backfield man in prep school, was quickly put through Bierman’s “quarterback school” and came out with a double “A” rating. When practice started this fal Bierman intmediately took him out of the line and named him his No, 1 quarter. Wilkinson, in his first game as and Duke and North Carolina in the South. Alabame, 7-0 conqueror of Mississippi State, plays Tennessee, hosed out 6-0 by Aubyrn, and Louis- jana State, which routed Georgia. 47-7, plays in the only Southeastern conference games of the ‘week. Georgia entertaing Rice in the westert conference. pilot, maneuvered the Gophers to a 14-7 win over the Washington Huskies, at Seattle. “I only used about five or six plays,” Wilkinson said after the game. “I guess I’m’ not so hot.” But Bier- man snd his aides don’t agres. Wilkinson not only is a “powerful blocker but has the surest hands on the squad on pass plays. The Uram-to-Wilkinson pass com- bination may rival the famous Wy- put the ball on the 10-yard ine and the next play, Uram to Ray King, was good for the winning SIOUX TURN ATTENTION TO HOMECOMING GAME SATURDAY Pro Crown Defense |Rugged St. Louis University Squad Will Bring-27 Let- termen North Grand Forks, N. D., Oct, 12.—(P}— North Dakota Sioux Monday turned their aitention to preparations for against Nebraska last Saturday but: ine toughest game of the season on the home field. The Sioux are sched- uled to mect St. Louis university here ‘Saturday afternoon in the climax event of’ their annual homecoming festivities. It will be the second meeting be- tween the two teams. North Dakota ; Nosed out a 7-0 decision over a rugged | sophomore billikin outift in St. Louis last year but Coah C. A, West admits the Sioux will have to be a lot better than they were last fall to repeat, for | St. Louis has @ squad of veterans that includes 27 lettermen. Although North Dakota had .con- siderable difficulty beating Iowa State Teachers last Friday West was not altogether displeased with his Sioux. He was well satisfied with the’ line. Martin Gainor, sophomore left end, pleased the coach. West also was encouraged with the passing game but he still has to find a combination of effective backfield blockers and said today that Bill *| Leidholdt, veteran cf two campaigns, was rounding into form where he might help solve the problem. Probabilities are the Sioux will have | little or no scrimmage this week. The | coach said he could not take chances cn more injuries at the present and would give most of his attention to qeveloping reserves and working on the passing game. The immediate necessity is to locate a guard to take the place of Hallen, hurt in the Moorhead game and who will not be available for duty Satur- day. Probabilities are that Ken John- son, who hurt an arm Friday, would be able to play against St. Louis.

Constans, 621 Mandan St., is a mem- ber of the Carleton freshmen football team’ Which has been providing Goach George Gibson's varsity eleven plenty of stiff scrimmage in practice sessions this fall.

The Lions Sunday routed Phila- delphia 23 to 0. \ Chicago's Bears won their etal straight game, downing the Chicago | Cardinals 7 to 3. Jack Manders scored |the touchdown and also converted in the second period, after Bill Smith’s field goal in the opening stanza put the Cards in front. Green Bay walloped Boston 31 to 2, scoring in every period. New York's Giants and Brooklyn battled to a 10-10 tie. Griffith Explains Stack-Upin Big Ten Says Ohio State Is Strong, Pr dicts Another Big Season for Gophers Dayton, Ohio, Oct: 12—(4)—Major John L, Griffith, commissioner of western conference athletics, has his own idea of how the “Big Ten” foot- ball teams stack up this year. Here for an address before a Y.M. G.A. group, Griffith in an interview recorded these impressions: Ohio State: “Any team in the coun- try would have difficulty in prevent- ing State from scoring. State will have one of the best teams in the country.” Iowa: “Wi!l be slow in developing.” Northwestern: “Has no standout player but 22 good, well drilled men all playing together. Tough to beat.” Chicago: ‘Severely handicapped by loss of halfback Bartlett through in- eligibility, and the team is without surrisleny reserves to make up for the oss.” Purdue: “The Boilermakers’ recent locker room tragedy has united the players.” { Indiana: “Starting the scason with 'more good men than last year. Bo MoMillin has the faculty of getting boys to work for him.” Illinois: “Lighter than most teams, but have good backs.” Minnesota: “The experiment of moving Wilkinson from guard to quarterback to obtain good blocking, replacing Beise, should give them an- ether successful season.” Wisconsin: “Needs a light runner and triple-threat man.” | | | SS, | If each descendent lived and bred normally, @ pair of meadow mice could have 275,000,000,000 descend- ents in 10 years.
