KICKOFF TO BEAT STANFORD GRID SEASON TILTS Louisiana State’s Conquest of Tulane Enhances Chances for Eastern Bid ONE TITLE TO BE SETTLED Arkansas Needs Victory Over Texas to Sew Up South- west Championship New York, Nov. 30.—(?)—The col- Jege football world clears up a little unfinished business this week but finds its attention not a little dis- tracted by widespread speculation over the identity of Washington's rival in Pasadena’s New Year's day Rose Bowl contest. Louisiana State's brilliant 33-0 con- quest of Tulane, giving the Tigers their second successive southeastern conference championship, certainly did the Baton Rouge powerhouse no harm in Rose Bowl calculations. ‘Whether it was suffictently decisive to counterbalance Washington's re- ported preference for Alabama's Crimson Tide probably will be known some time this week. Only the southwest conference title remains to be awarded. Arkansas can capture the cham- plonship outright by beating Texas on Saturday. A tie will force the Razorbacks to share the title with ‘Texas Christian’s Horned Frogs who got no better than a scoreless draw with Southern Methodist, 1935 cham- Pions. Otherwise, section championships hhave been decided as follows: 1936: EAST—Yale, Penn; BIG TEN —Northwestern; BIG SIX—Nebras- ka; PACIFIC—Washington; SOUTH- ERN — Duke; SOUTHWESTERN— Louisiana State; ROCKY MOUN- TAIN—Utah State. 1935: EAST—Princeton; BIG TEN —Minnesota, Ohio State; BIG SIX— Nebraska; PACIFIC—Stanford, Call- fornia, U. C. L. A.; SOUTHERN— Duke; SOUTHWESTERN—Louisiana State; ROCKY MOUNTAIN—Utah State, Colorado U. EASTERN TEAM TO BE NAMED THIS WEEK Seattle, Nov, 30.—(?)—Seattle foot- ball fans were confident Monday Alabama or Louisiana State would be chosen to meet Washington in the Rose Bowl. Sometime this week, possibly by ‘Wednesday, Ray Eckmann, Washing- ton athletic director, will name the opponent for the Huskies in the Pasa- dena New Year's day football battle. He was on his way Monday to con- fer with Tournament of Roses offic- fals and will make the announce- ment in Los Angeles, he said. It is no secret Washington would like best to get another crack at Min- nesota, but the Big Ten conference prohibits post-season games. In the opening game of the season here, ‘Washington lost to Minnesota, 14-7. Pitt, Yale Greats Make All-Eastern Choice of Kelley, Frank Help ‘Ivy League’ Make Best Showing of Decade New York, Nov. 30—(?)—Pittsburgh and Yale, representing separate com- petitive spheres in one of the most exciting seasons in the history of foot- ball’s original battle ground, monop- olized honors Monday in the all-east- ern selections, compiled by the Assoc- fated Press. Three members of the stalwart Pitt line, Bill Daddio at end, Captain Bill Glassford at guard, and Averell Dan- fell at tackle, occupied positions on the first team, with Tony Matsi at tackle and Marshall Goldberg at half- back on the second eleven. Yale, with Captain Larry Kelley at end and Clint Frank in the back- field, helped the “Ivy league” make the best showing among eastern All- Stars in a decade. The All-Eastern selections follow: First team: End, Lawrence M. Kelley, Yale; tackle, Averell Daniell, Pittsburgh; guard, Nathaniel Pierce, ; center, Michael Basrak, Duquesne; guard, William Glassford, Pittsburgh; tackle, Charles Toll, Jr., Princeton; end, William Daddio, Pittsburgh; quarterback, Clinton E.

Program Outlined The safety program which coaches have agreed will reduce gridiron in- juries among high school teams of the state can be classified under six]; points: Better equipment with less regard for “flashy” uniforms, Proper conditioning of players be- fore seasons’ openers. A more careful selection of officials who watch “unnecessary roughness.” Better playing fields, leveled and free of rocks and holes. Use of more care in matching teams, Guard against piaying injured men even if they are “stars.” Virtually all of more than 40 state high school coaches surveyed placed better equipment and proper con- ditioning of players at the head of the list. More for Protection Coach Marty Engh of Wahpeton and Ernie Gates, Jamestown mentor, both suggested that coaches spend less money for “flashy” uniforms and more for protection pads, believing there is “very little danger of injury” with modern equipment. Coach Johnny Mach of the Williston Coyotes and B. M. Boyd, who guides the destinies of the Crosby grid club, were of the opinion injuries most of- ten occur with “green boys who have not mastered body control” and that coaches should spend two weeks care- fully training their charges before opening the season. Many coaches believed a careful se- lection of officials should be made for each game, choosing competent; men who can properly “discipline” the contest. From coaches of smaller schools came the suggestion of “better). playing” fields. They report many teams are forced to play on rock- strewn gridirons, making the game more hazardous. Over-matching Dangerous Overmatching teams also was set out by some as a direct cause of in- juries when a coach pits his eleven against a club which has a great weight advantage. Coach Glen Hanna of the Bismarck Demons believes care should be taken in picking men to work the games. Many coaches looked on playing an injured man because he was a star as “foolish” and with “no regard for the welfare of the player.” With exception of several broken legs, collar bones and painful hip dis- locations, North Dakota high school gridders moved through another foot- ball season and there are only a few boys who are still undergoing treat- ment for injuries, the survey) showed.

GRID MENTORS APPROVE | Trapping ‘Season SIX-POINT SAFETY PROGRAM Promises to Be Biggest in Years Fur-Bearing Animals Said Plen- tiful; 50 Licenses Issued in County Half a hundred trapping licenses have veen sold in Burleigh county for the skunk, mink, weasel and fox seasons which opened earlier this month and will continue until Feb- Tuary, @ checkup revealed here Mon- lay. Red foxes and skunks are espe- cially plentiful this year according to Arthur I. Peterson, state game and fish commissioner, who stated the in- crease in fur-bearing animals far outnumbered that of any year in the last ten. The skunk season, which opened Nov. 1, will continue until Feb. 28, while the season on mink, weasel and fox started Noy. 15 and will run just. three months to Feb. 15, Source of Revenue Peterson said that a great many North Dakotans will realize some money from trapping this winter and pointed out that the first pelt or two would reimburse the hunters for the cost of the license. On reason for the increase in fur- bearing ariimals is the vast amount. of land in the state lying idle under the provisions of the AAA and a sec- ond is that land is not so heavily grazed on account of the heavy sale of livestock during the recent drouth years, Peterson said. Raccoons, badgers and muskrats are on the protected list, but foxes and skunks have multiplied rapidly and weasels are also reported to be very plentiful. Beavers Protected Permits are being issued to land- jowners to take beavers upon receipt of affidavits showing that consider- able damage is being done and where trapping wiil not endanger the future supply. At one time, the pelts of animals trapped and marketed in the state brought $2,000,000 annually and much ready cash awaits those persons who {are willing to get out in the field dur- ing the winter months.

SIDE GLANCES SEE ACTION FRIDAY; SIOUX ON LONG TRIP Dickinson, Mandan, Bismarck Open Season Against Smaller Opponents High school and college basketball teams throughout the Missouri Slope and North Dakota were generally scheduled to get the 1936-37 cage sea- son under way this week following a few scattered games prior to the Thanksgiving holiday. Although there were several squads in the western half of the state which played their opening hard court en- counters as far back as two weeks ago, the bigger portion of the quints were not scheduled to get into active competition until this week and next. The University of North Dakota five, defending North Central Confer- ence champions, will start on a four- day road trip at the end of the week during which they will play Macal- ester college at St. Paul, Wisconsin university at Madison and DePaul at Chicago. Jimmies Meet Cobbers Jamestown college's Jimmies meet Concordia on their home floor Thurs- day and the North Dakota State Bi- son get into action against Moorhead State Teachers college on the Dra- gons’ home floor Saturday. Dickinson and Valley City State Teachers colleges will not get into ac- tion until near the middle of Decem- ber. Three major teems on the Missouri!

Packers Defeat Lions for Title Green Bay Eleven to Meet East- . ern Champion in Playoff For Pro Crown Chicago, Nov. 30.—(#)—The Green Bay Packers, who dominated the Na- tional Football League picture from 1929 through 1931, Monday needed just one more victory—in the east- west playoff—to win their fourth championship. The powerful Packers won their ninth straight game Sunday by downing the 1935 titleholders, Detroit, 26-17, before 22,000 spectators. It assured Green Bay of the western sec- tion title on a record of 10 victories and one defeat, with one game to play. The Chicago Bears saw their last hopes fade when they were upset, 14-7, by their snappy home-town rivals, the Cardinals. Boston’s Redskins took the lead in the eastern section race by beating Pittsburgh, 30-0, scoring in every pe- riod but the third. Brooklyn's running offense was too much for Philadelphia, the Dodgers winning, 13-7. - By George Clark tions, will be the signal for the fire- works to start popping over the for- ward-pass interference ruling. With game or touchdown decisions in some 20 major meetings this sea- son adding to the row started by last year’s Army-Notre Dame tie, it seems hardly likely the affected coaches are going to sit back without taking a crack at the currently most-discussed tuling in the books. When Navy trimmed the Army by a touchdown Saturday as a direct re- sult of getting the ball on the West Pointers’ three-yard line through such an interference penalty, it probably was the “payoff” penalty which will lead to “high-pressuring” for altera- tion of the ruling. This year, in addition to the Army- Navy affair. Princeton was able to tie Dartmouth, Washington State beat out California and Michigan State managed to deadlock Boston college, through pass interference rulings. International Hockey _ League Race Is Close New York, Nov. 30.—(#)—While the Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Maroons have been threatening to make the international division strug- gle in the National Hockey League as close as the one going on in the American group, the New York Amer- icans and Montreal Canadiens don’t seem able to do much about it. During the past week they lost and won together and remained just one point apart with the Americans in front. Toronto, meanwhile, rallied to tie the Maroons for third place, four Points behind the Flying Frenchmen. After losing two games, including a 3-2 decision to the Maroons Satur- day, the Americans snapped back to protect their lead Sunday night with @ 2-0 victory over the cirppled De- troit Red Wings. The Canadiens dropped a pair of 4-2 decisions to Toronto, Thursday and Saturday but likewise came through when the chips were down Sunday night and whipped the Chicago Blackhawks 2-1. The only other week-end game saw the New York Rangers and Boston Bruins, first and second by a single point in the American section, fail to settle their argument. They played a 2-2 tie Saturday. Davenport Trundlers Lead Midwest Event Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. 30.—(P)— ‘The Crescent Macaroni and Cracker Co. team of Davenport, Iowa, was out in front in the team event in the 29th annual midwest bowling tournament here Monday. Featuring a lively week-end of com- petition with teams throughout the midwest, the Iowans rolled 2,996 to take the lead over the Zoller Brew- ing quintet, another Davenport team. The brewers collected 2,805 pins for second place. Fred Thoma, the Peoria, Ill. vet- eran, cracked the pins for a 703 total, giving him the singles lead by 17 pins over Fleckenstein of Faribault, Minn. ‘The Shuda-Krueger duo of Peoria swept into second pluce in the dou- bles with 1,227, four more pins than the Creston, Iowa, pair, Cipra and Imley, knocked down. Sioux to Open Cage Schedule at St. Paul St. Paul, Nov. 30.—(?)—The Uni- versity of North Dakota, defending basketball champion in the strong North Central conference, will get its’ first taste of competition during the coming weak when it engages Macal- ester college in St. Paul Saturday WIN BY OLD CONVENTIONS Defenders Show “Fourth Best” and “Blue Peter,” Auction Tricks That Defeat Contract By WM. E. McKENNEY (Secretary, American Bridge League) While bridge has developed many new ideas of defensive play, good bridge players still make use of the/ conventions handed down from the | days of whist, such as leading “fourth best” to show length, and “petering” to show that a player holds three trumps. Through use of these two conven- tions, George Unger and his partner | defeated a contract in a recent New| York duplicate game, which was eas- ily made where the defending play- | ers were not able to get such a per- fect count on the length of the var- jous suits. | The bidding requires no particular jomment.

Declarer followed with another spade, which Unger won, and North completed the old whist “blue peter” by playing the four, which was the accepted method of showing that he | had three trumps. As a club trick alone would not defeat the contract, Unger now led the heart deuce, his fourth best. North. won with the ace and returned the seven, the fourth highest heart he had held originally. This gave a perfect count. East could have no more hearts, so Unger led another club, which North ruffed, and beat the contract on trick. There were lots of mathematics in the defense, but the defense “count- ing” was very good. (Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Inc.) college, both Saturday night. All are non-conference gamcs.
