Purdue, Tennessee Win Big Sectional Games LONG PASS DECIDES FOR BOILERMAKERS Woerner, Who Crosses Goal in 7-0 Victory, So Happy He Mitts Official. BY CHARLES DUNKLEY, Associated Press Sports Writer AFAYETTE, Ind., November 16.— A long forward pass, behind Iowa’s goal line gave old Purdue, the only undefeated eleven in the Western Conference, a bril- liant 7-t0-0 victory over the Hawkeyes today. Purdue, undefeated in six games, four in conference competition, conquered the Hawkeyes with two aerial shots after the powerful Iowa line had refused to yield to the smashes of the Boiler- makers’ great back-field trio—"Pest" Welch, Harmeson and the battering ram, Yunevich. . Purdue cut loose with its winning acrial stroke early in the second period, with Glenn Harmeson tossing the passes that moved the Boilermakers within one step of their first championship since the Big Ten was formed 32 years ago. They need now to conquer only Indiana a week hence to become un- disputed title holders, victorious in every contest. Hawkeyes Try Hard. The largest crowd that ever jammed Purdue’'s bandbox stadium, 26,000 spec- tators, saw every kind of foot ball. They saw two hard - hitting, rugged teams fight each other to a standstill, in as fiercely fought and sensational a game as the Western Conference has seen in years. After Purdue had scored its points, the Boilermakers showed they had the fighting hearts of champions. As dark- ness settled over the field with only a few minutes left to play the infuriated Hawkeyes made a desperate challenge “to tie the score, rushing the ball to within five yards of Purdue’s goal, only fo lose it by failure to complete 4 for- | ward pass back of the goal line. Purdue registered its victory at the start of the second period after a bit- terly fought opening session, in which the Hawkeyes outplayed their foes. The | Boilermakers started their victorious drive after Willis Glassgow, Iowa's brawny captain, punted to White, Pur- due’s quarterback, on Iowa's 41-yard line just as the first period ended. After Yunevich and Harmeson smash- ed the line for 3 yards, Harmeson heaved a surprise pass, the ball sailing 25 yards into the arms of Bill Woerner. Purdue’s crack end. He had a clear | field ahead of him, but Glassgow charged across and bumped him out of bounds on the 25-yard line. The Boilermakers tried two more plays at the line and then executed the winning pass. Harmeson took the ball and ran to his left, passing the oval through the air for 17 yards, while on the run, to Woerner, who stood behind the Hawkeye goal line waiting to catch it. Woerner was so happy in his triumphant catch tha he walked over and shook hands with the fleld judge. ‘Harmeson added more glory by kicking the goal from placement for the extra pt. Purdue made another threat to score in the closing minutes of the fourth period when they began & savage march through the exhausted Iowa line, scor- ing four successive first downs, golng from their own 20-yard line to Iowa's 25-yard line, where Welch failed to make the first down by inches. The courageous Hawkeyes, who a week ago ruined the championship a: pirations of Minnesota, outplayed Pur: due in a running offensive for three of the four periods, but lacked the punch to go through the desperate Purdue team when within scoring distance. The Hawks had three opportunities to score, once in the first period, another in the second and the last desperate charge in the fourth. Towa Misses Chance. Towa lost a golden opportunity in the first period when Glassgow tossed a long pass to Rogge, Hawkeye end, who missed the ball by inches on Purdue's 15-yard line. In the second period Oran Pape, Iowa's golden-haired speed- boy, who scored the touchdown that beat Minnesota, entered the fray. He was unable to get away on any_thrill- ing long runs, but he tossed a 28-yard pass to Rogge, who raced to Purdue's 24-yard line before he was downed by Welch., Leo Jensvold made it first down on the 12-yard line by line smashes, but the Hawkeyes were | stopped right there. | The teams fought on virtually even terms, except in forward passing. Towa registered 11 first downs to 10 for Pur- due, and gained 204 yards for scrim- mage to 208 for the Boilermakers. In forward passing Purdue had the good fortune to complete two out of four for a gain of 46 yards, while Iowa com- pleted one out of eight attempts for 29 yards. The line-ups: n.

It was Olaf Robinson, a junior full- back playing his first season with the varsity and who spends part of his time as a light-heavyweight amateur boxer, who gave the biggest demonstration of what 1930 Illinois opponents will run up against in the way of crashing a line. “With a little help from Pete Yanuskus, a sophomore halfback, and Frankie Walker, Robinson, in the sec- ond period, took the ball six times and battered his way from the middle of the field over the Chicago goal line for Illinois’ first touchdown. His contribu- tion to the march totaled 33 yards, better than 5 yards a try. Robinson plunged over for the second touchdown in the third period after “Frosty” Peters, one of the boys who passes on this season, had prepared the way. Peters Intercepts Pass.

BY PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Write. VANSTON, Ill., November 16— The Battlin' Hooslers from In: diana, led by a winged-foot, 155- pound halfback named George Ross, emerged from foot ball's wilderness dramatically and suddenly today to defeat Northwestern, 19 to 14, in one of the most stunning upsets of the Big Ten campaign. Trailing by the ominous margin of 8 points, with only 10 minutes of the bat- tle left to play, Ross turned defeat into victory with as brilliant a performance racing 13 and 89 yards, respectively, for touch.downs. and adding one point from placement for good measure—a total of 13 points, or better than a point a minute. The Hoosier triumph, its first of the 1029 race, stunned not only the throng of 35000 Northwestern homecomin; Indiana rooters, many of them members of the Indiana Anti-Shave Club, a ‘Hoosler campus organization pledged not to shave until its team won a con- ference game.

Bergherm kicked from placement for the extra point. ‘Three minutes later Bergherm's plunges and passes to Burnstein and Uliphant placed the ball on Indiana's 6-yard stripe.

VOLUNTEERS CLOSE 10 SOUTHERNTITLE ; Commodores Beaten, 13t0 0, | as McQuigan’s Bag of Tricks | Is Emptied. BY EDDIE BRIETZ, Associated Press Sports Writer. NOXVILLE, November | 16.—With T, Southern ) splashing through mire to s°t the pace, Tennes- see’s powerful Volunteers moved a step closer to the Southern championship here today with a drive 13-0 decision over Vanderbilt. Completely outclassed at every turn, the Commodores, who have been burn- ing up the Southern woods in their sur- prising march toward the top, never once threatened today. Unable to get anywhere with his punting game, Coach Dan McGuigin, the Vanderbilt mentor, took to the air in the closing moments, but without avail. It was Tennessee's game from the first whistle on. The flashy McEver, scoring one of Tennessee's two touchdowns, was out- standing. He led in yardage gained with 168. Buddy Hackman, his run- nll}? mate, contributed 124. [cGaughey led the “Vanderbilt forces with 50. Leonard, who has been the big Commodore threat all season, gained only 15. Tennessee Gets Break. A scoreless first period saw the ball in Vanderbilt's territory throughout. A break paved the way for the first Tennessee score Leonard, trying to block a punt which was (hxenenlni to roll over the goal line, hit the ball with his shoulder, and Tennessce re- covered on Vanderbilt's 7-yard line. Bobby Dodd then got busy and in three tries against the line went over for the score. The chunky halfback was the big noise of a third period offensive which netted 7 more points. After running back a punt 23 yards to Vanderbilt's 23-yard line, McEver and Hackman to- gether added 4 more, and then McEver tore thrauah the line for the score. ‘Vanderbilt opened up, but got no nearer the Tennessee goal than the 18- rd line. The Commodores were help- {ua before the Tenmnessee line and did not register a first down until the last period. Tennessee alternated & running at- tack, with McEver and Hackman lug- ging the ball; with an overhead offen- sive bullt around Dodd, the speedy duarterback. This failed to work, how- ever, and practically all of the ground- g'-llcnllx;u was done through the Vander- ne. Many Stars Stopped. For the first time this season Dan McGuigin, veteran Vanderbilt coach, failed to have a few surprises up his sleeve for the opposition. He attempted an overhead game in the closing minutes, but got nowhere with it. ‘Vanderbllt had depended on Leonard and McGaughey, who had carried the load in previous battles, and with this pair stopped, the Commodores seemed unable to function. Vanderbilt punted 31 times against 19 for Tennessee: the Volunteers led in first downs, 8 to 3, only two of which the Commodores earned. Tennessee gained 267 yards to 121 for the Commodores.

It will decide which team is to finish second to Tech, the champion in the race, and as Eastern and Central appear well matched it should be a wow of a battle. The Lin- coln Parkers and Blue and White are now tied for the runner-up post, each with two wins and one loss. Eight other contests are carded for the week, with the Eastern-Gonzaga battle Saturday in the Eastern Stadium perhaps the most interesting, as it will bring together keen foes. Incidentally, Eastern in tackling both Central and Gonzaga the same week certainly has a tough row to hoe, Western also is to appear in two games, being booked to face George- town Prep Tuesday at Garrett Park and Swavely Saturday at Manassas. Eastern will be hot after a victory over Central to_avenge a 6-0 defeat handed it last Fall by the Blue and White. The Lincoln Parkers, after dropping the opening game of the cur- rent series to Tech, 2 to 14, came back to drub Western, 38 to 6, and Business, 46 to 0. Central also lost to Tech, the score being 6 to 12, but then trimmed Business, 31 to 0, and Western, 6 to 0. Incidentally, Western presented a line- up against Central that was stronger than that which appeared against East- ern, having been bolstered by several players who had been ineligible. Both the Eastern and Central elevens doubtless have improved since early season. Each has power on attack and good defensive players. Eastern will have the task of stop- ping Larry Pinckney, big plunging full- back of the Central team, and Paul Hinkel, clever ball carrier, while Central | |is likely to have trouble checking Ev- | erett Oxley and Ben McCullough, fast and clever backs. Gonzaga would particularly relish a | win over Eastern as the Lincoln Park- | last year. In view of the proved power of both and the old feud between them this | contest looms as one of the brightest of Gonzaga has lost only one game in five so far, that to_the undefeated Catholic University Freshmen, while | Eastern has come back impressively after a more or less mediocre start. ‘Western and Georgetown Prep prob- ably will stage a spirited argument Tuesday at Garrett Park.

St. Alban's regular eleven has ended its season, but a 130-pound eleven rep- resenting the Wisconsin avenue school will try to take the measure of a 130- pound Episcopal High eleven Friday at Alexandria.

EMORIAL STADIUM, MINNE- APOLIS, November 16.—A re- | Jjuvenated Michigan team, fresh from its triumph over Harvard, fought tenaciously to 7-to-6 victory over Minnesota today, completing the elimination of the Gophers from the Big Ten race started last week by Iowa. Led by the yard-gaining genius of Wilson, a sub-halfback, the play of the Wolverines retrieved for them the “Little | Brown Jug,” traditional trophy of Min- | nesota-Michigan games since 1903. Minnesota outplayed the Wolverines through the first half, bringing the work to a climax with a touchdown in the second period. but Pharmer's kick for the extra point went wide. This spelled the loss of the famous jug, for Michigans’ fourth period touchdown was followed by & perfect kick for the extra point by Gembis. A final desperate shower of Minnesota passes failed when the alert Wolverine defense broke up this defense by inter- ception. Wilson not only was the first Mich- igan back to have consistent success in gaining through the Gopher line. but put the ball into position for the Wol- verine score. He took a 23-yard pass from Gembis in the midst of a group of Gophers, downing the ball on Minne- sota's 4-yard line. On the second try. Morrison, Michigan fullback, went over for the touchdown. Nagurski, the giant Gopher, who fre- quently plays tackle, stopped Michigan's hopes of smashing through Minnesota's line. He backed up the line with a series of spectacular tackles. Poe, the Michigan guard, was similarly effective in breaking ug‘umnm 's line plunges. , Minnesota’s puntin A went into action on the second play of the game, sending the ball down the fleld for 63 y:rglm Frequent kick ex- changes kept the advantage in the Gophers' hands until negatived by two fumbles, the first by Pharmer within 9 yards of touchdown territory, after ked place-kick had opened Riebeth's way for a long run. Shortly after the second period | opened, Pulkrabek, the giant Minnesota | guard, downed a Wolverine fumble on | Michigan’s 46-yard line.
