ILLINOIS DISPLAYS SPEED AND FIGHT IN BEATING CHICAGO, 7-0 Urbana Halfbacks Stand Out as Heroes of Great Football Victory Which Marked Dedication Of Costly New Athletic Stadium. By EDWARD C. DERR. United Press Staff Correspondent. URBANA, Ill., Nov. 3.—A team of stripling youngsters, fast and scrappy, battered its way to a win over the Chi- cago Maroons, 7 to 0, here today, shoved the Maroons out of the running for the big ten title, and placed Illinois in the lead. With three straight victories and no defeats, “Fighting Bob" Zuppke’s men tonight were untop the Big Ten heap, while Michigan, with two wins, crowded them for first honors. To Harold Grange and Bill Mc Iiwain, Illinois’ pair of speedy halt- backs, goes most of the credit for the victory. Grange went into the game a marked man. The Maroons, know- ing he had scored three touchdowns in 20 minutes the week previous, tried desperately to break through and stop him, but the little sopho- more was too fast. Confident that Grange’s speed made him safe from being tackled from the rear, the wily Illini coach pulled the entire opposite side of his Mne around to run Interference. They formed a wedge through which the stoutest of the Maroon linemen was unable to break. Fearing that Grange would be taken out of the game by injury, Zuppke had an ace in the hole in young MclIiwain, who _ nearly equaled the performance of his team mate. MclIlwain broke away re peatedly for long gaing through the line and around the ends. CHEYENNE fIGH HANGS DEFEAT ON CASPER GRID TEAM, 19 700 Second String Men Here Lose to Glenrock but Third Team Wins From Salt Creek; Lack of Practice Handicap. With its first team defeated, 19 to 0, at Cheyenne Satur- day, with its second team trampled on Friday at Glenrock when the Converse county grid squad annexed a score of 82 to the visitors nothing, the student body is consoling itsel Natrona county high school f with the fact that the third eleven defeated the Salt Creek aggregation by gaining 10 points and pteventing, the ofl field workers from scoring in a game played at Salt Creek Saturday. | Followers of Natrona County's fortunes have Iaid the blame of the} @efeats to the unhappy fact that Casper teams were hampered in their practice during the past two weeks because of the heavy snows fn this part of the stafo and the consequent bad condition of the! field. It was because the high schoo! | athletic field here was unfit to play on that a game scheduled October 27 was postponed indefinitely. Casper will have its first oppor- tunity to retrieve its defeat when| Sheridan comes here on Armistice Gay. The Northerners generally| have 2 tough team to beat and/ though usually restrained in their! desire to test their metal against] central and southern Wyoming teams because of the difficulty of| railroad connections they are usually | considered even opponents for any of the leading Wyoming combina-| tions, In the Cheyenne-Casper game yesterday a muddy field greeted the contestants. Cheyenne fg said to have consistently out- played the invaders. The Capital city scored touchdowns in the sec- ond, third and fourth periods and kicked goal after the second touch- down. McKelvey’s punting and O'Brien's work at end were features in the playing on the side of the visitors and went a long way in gaining the yardage that held the home team to the score it obtained. Casper’s second team which play- ed at Glenrock Friday coming out with the little end of the score was outweighed by the opponents. At one time Casper’s team was within four yards of the goal but failed to complete the advance. A muddy field was the rule at Glenrock also. No particular significance can be attached to the third team’s game with Salt Creek, since both the Salt Creek bunch and the visitors were ‘new at the game, John Thomas, all-American full- back, who worked at half today, and Bill Zorn fought gamely and hard but thelr front wall was piled up on early every play by the hard charg- ing Tllini and they were unable to get away. The game was a pretty even tussle during the first half but early in the third quarter the Illini at- tack got under way and before the Maroons could stop it Grange and McIiwain had carried the ball by repeated gains to the two-yard line from where Grange plunged over with the only touchdown of the day. Britton kicked goal. The two teams were apparently well balanced—Chicago having weight and experience; Illinois possessing speed and the pufch Speed and punch emerged vic torfous. The Illini by thetr win today broke the jinx which usually shadows opening of new stadiums. The mammoth structure, filled to capacity by 60,000 frenzted rooters, was christened with victory.

FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK, Nov. 8.—Sitting high and handsome in glory for a week at least, six great football teams remained tonight in the rapidly diminishing group of aspirants for the fabled crown of gridiron king. Off the widely scattered battlefields of the east, west and south, Yale, Cornell, Syracuse, Michigan, Notre Dame pat aed ate oe and Illinois came with heads high and records untarnished. With a few exceptions, the faces among the survivors, while marked somewhat with the scars of battle, were not strangers. The day’ games followed form as closely as football ean be expected to adhere to the dope. The size of the score, more than the victory, caused tremendous sur-{ prises in the east, when Ya'e ran away from the Army, 31 to 10 and when Cornell overwhelmed Dart- mouth 82 to 7. It has been years since such a promising Yale team has rounded nto the stretch and the shouts from Yale camps could be heard all over the east. Cornell's rout of Dartmouth meant more to Cornell than a victory over} the conqueror of Harvard and one! of the strongest teams of the east. Cornell has had a powerful team for three years but has heard noth- Ing but taunts about the schedule of ‘set-ups” over which the team rode to {ts victories, a) Today's terrific beating of Dart- mouth vindicated Cornell and placed| the team perhaps first in rating among all the eastern teams, } Penn State, held to a tio last | week by West Virginia faded from| the eastern picture when Syracuse beat them, 10 to 0.

Lehigh furnished another result that was not expected, by defeating | Carnegie Tech, which ‘won from Pittsburg last week 13 to 6, Navy's 9 to 0 victory over Colgate was Somewhat of a surprise, Washington and Jefferson slipped down a cog when LaFayette sprung a touchdown in the final quarter and held them to a six to six tle. Pittsburgh made one more in its string of succesive “losings” by fall-| ing before Pennsylvania 6 to 0. Harvard looked none too well in beating Tufts 16 to 0 but the Prince- ton Tigers were impressive in win- ning from Swarthmore, 35 to 6.

Six regulars were missing from the Bear lineup during the first part of the game and only for a ~ short time did Evans get in at quarter and Blewett at half. Their appearance changed the complexion of things not at all. Blewett’s at- tempt at a field goal in the last quarter went wide.
