WOLVERINES MUST BANK ON NEWMAN Best Tosser Since Friedman Gives His Team Only Scoring Punch. BY BOB ZUPPKE, Poot Ball Coach, University of ilinois. ¥ HAMPAIGN, 11, October 27. C Michigan is likely to win the Big Ten championship, or at least get a tie for the title, because the Wolverines, in Harry Newman, have the best passer seen in the West since the days of Benny Friedman. Although defeating Illinois, 16-7, Michigan had no scoring punch except Newman's passing, which turned the tide of a close game. - The Illinois secondary defense was weak against his passes; still Newman will worry the best in any game he plays. He is exceptionally accurate and can throw probably farther than any other player in the Big Ten. If a coach has no long passer on his squad he cannot practice his men against the long ones. Newman, I should say, is a more powerful passer than Rentner of North- western; that is, he has more steam and in his throws. He 18 not & top-notch, all-around player, but his passing talent is a great asset.

ANDERSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. ANSAS CITY, October 27.—Two titular games in the Big Six foot ball conference this week end will occupy secondary po- sitions in the Interest of most fans. In- tersectional games, bringing Kansas| against Pennsylvania in Philadelphia | and Nebraska against Pittsburgh in| Lincoln, take the spotlight. Intersectional games for the Jay- hawkers have been rare. Generally, they were early season contests, with Kan- sas losing to a higher rated team. This year all is different. Kansas has a team | to cope with Penn. The game is a mid- season affair, It brings the Kansans squarely into the national gridiron pic- ture, and Kansas wants to be at its best. The Nebraska-Pitt game will be the drawing card in the Missouri Valley. A crowd of 35,000, perhaps more, is ex- pected in the Cornhusker Stadium, and the attendance probably will exceed any ot«her_rgmavhndlnmh-mnuuu son.

Mercury and Centennial Teams Set Pace in Grid Title Race ARD-FIGHTING Mercury and Centennial elevens today are flying out in front along the championship trail in the un- limited and 150-pound classes, respec- tively, of the Capital City Foot Ball League. They shot ahead yesterday when the league teams put in another Sunday marked by red-hot battling. Mercury's swept to the front in the unlimited group when they triumphed over St. Stephen’s, 7 to 0. Centennials stepped to the van of the parade in the 150-pound loop by hanging a 20-6 past- ing on their old rivals, Columbias. In other unlimited class wn&nu Seat Pleasant overcame Quentins, 7 to 6, and | and Alxm Delta Omega Fraternity of Alexandria and Marions waged a 6-6 deadlock. Northern Preps vanquished their bit- ter rivals, Petworth Pennants, 7 to 0; Brentwood Hawks overcame Mardfeldts, their neighborhood foes, 6 to 0, and Wolverines and Del Rays staged a 0-0 fight in other 150-pound engagements.

The winner displayed a smashing mixed attack. Seat Pleasant won from Quentins when E. Heflin, stocky center, blocked and recovered Jumbo Eggleston's punt behind the Quentin goal. Woodward plunged over for the point that gave Seat Pleasant its win. Quentins count- eu its touchdown in the first quarter largely through & 53-yard return of & punt by Jordan. Alpha Delta Omega put on & 63-yard drive to score its touchdown in the opening stages of the third quarter. A long ru from Hooff to Capt. Hux::u brought Marions’ tally in the al quarter. That Northern Prep-Petworth Pen- nants battle was a real “dog eat dog” fight. Several of the players were s0 badly shaken up that thd to quit the field, but none was seriously injured. Northerns scored in the first quarter When_after Connell's poor punt went outside on the Pets’ 20-yard line Reed hit tackle three times, going over for the tally on the third try. Reed also rushed over for the extra point. Culminating a_ drive marked by straight foot ball W. Felner went over in the first quarter for the touchdown that gave Brentwood Hawks its win from Mardfeldts. Hawks had the ball in_enemy territory most of the game. Both Wolverines and Del Rays had several 8CO! opportunities, but neither had the punch to cash on them. Farran and G.

That's the way the rival coaches feel. Most fans, though, figure just the oppo- site, the tendency being to give Tech a slight edge. Play starts in the Central Stadium at 3:45 o'clock. Both tutors figure that it is going to be a great scrap, which is the way most every one interested feels. Ever the classic of the schoolboy grid season here, the game has attracted even more in- terest than usual this season; as it comes earlier than it generally does and as it | is certain to go far toward deciding the title, if it does not do so. Tech is the defending champion. Each has won its only game so far in the current series. Tech routed Business, 39 to 0, and Cen- tral conquered Western, 14 to 7. Both teams have backfields packing real dynamite. The big “if” so far as each is concerned is the line. Neither Rauber nor Hardell was cer- tain today of just what boys they would start. Rauber was hopeful, though not cer- tain, that Frank (Whitey) Cumberland, rugged quarterback, who has been laid up with a bad ankle, will be ready to start. Pinckney, Hinkel and De Lisio are certain starters in the backfield. All are real threats. Colella, Feldman and Miller also may see action behind the line for the Blue. Johnson may not start at left tackle because of an mjury, but etherwise Central figures to start with the same line array as began against Western. Lofstrand will be at Johnson's post if he does not start. Others scheduled to begin for Central on the line are Deveau, left end: Gar- rett, left tackle; Morgan, center; Kocsis, right guard; Coleman, right tackle, and Mirman, right end. Nelson, quarterback, and Sachs, half- back, are sure to start for Tech, with Reichman, Hatos, Gormley and Yznaga available for the other backfield posts.' day in discussing the Central-|D game tomorrow | I wouldn't be sur- | & Dixie Conference Team Standings By the Agsociated Press.

BY DAN McGUGIN, Foot Ball Coach, Vanderbilt University. ASHVILLE, Tenn. October N 27.—In her victory over Vanderbilt, Alabama showed a perfection in | running offense seldom equaled in 1 American foot ball. Involved in this are power, timing, effective blocking, deception, sharp handling of the ball, superb line play, truly great backs and team speed. bama moves to the point of attack with coheston and precision, a combination of 11 men stringing as 1. Along with her great offensive and defensive ability Alabama uses the kicking game with brilliance and skill. ‘Then she has certainty of judgment and a certain cool, clear intelligence. If any coach feels the Alabama team is not & thinking team, play her and feel the shock. She has won from Ten- nessee and Vanderbilt without the aid of a pass and with this weapon doubt- less developed but not needed. It would be a shame to pick stars on those who avail themselves of opportu- nities furnished by faithful teammates. Sington, Cain, Suther and Campbell are among the great ones. 'Bama Gets a Break. Vanderbilt lost the toss and the wind, a vital factor. Winning a toss enables a team to work the ball down the field, strengthens its morale and adversely affects the morale of the loser. My boys, with six sophomores in the line-up, made many mistakes, in- ning with the return of a fumbled kick- off over the goal line out to the 8-yard line. But few mistakes were made by the sophomores. ‘Vanderbilt, although Alabama supporters in the last second of play. Twelve points behind, she completed passes for & touchdewn and kicked goal. A pass on the goal line by Askew, a magnificent effort after the interception of an Ala- bama pass, would probably have won the game rather undeservedly if it had been completed.

Turning from this gamd, which has been stressed because of its Conference importance, we find Georgia, Tulane, Clemson and Kentucky st the top of the heap. Florida whs defeated by one point by Furman, always' a hard nut . Kentucky shows every in- dication of being a great team, though her first real test will come with Alabama Saturday. Tulane, at the corner of the Oon- ference, has had difficulty in getting a Conference schedule as hard as some. She is always willing to take on all who may come and she seizes each op- portunity to defeat her Conference opponents with astonishing alacrity. Welch of Clemson must be of great value to his team. almost as much as Coach Joshua Cody. Before Josh went to Clemson, she had for years been a set-up for everybody. Under Cody she is feared by everybody. Cody's work at Clemson equals that of any coach the history of the Conference. He has made it under aggravating conditions that would have impaired the spirit of a soul less sturdy. Upon performance to date.
