BIG TEN SEASON TOENDSATURDAY l our Games To Be Played; First Place To Be At Stake At Ann Arbor By Edward C. Herr. fU. P. Staff Correspondent) Chicago. Nov. 20.—(United Press.) The grand finale of the 1925 football season in the Big Ten conference (ll nie* tomorrow in four games, one of which will determine the championship- I First place will tie at stake when Minnesota and Michigan clash at I Ann Arhor. A victory for th e Goph-| erH will mako them undisputed <hampions with two wins and a tie game comprising their season’s conference record. If Michigan wins .the Gophers will he tumbled far down the list because of their slim schedule, and Michigan will be rated the most powerful team in the conference. The Wolverine record would then be five victories and one defeat and second honors would go to Northwestern, with three wins and one defeat. Because Northwestern gave Michigan its only defeat so far, however. Wildcat enthusiasts will claim they have an equal right to the title with Michigan. The Illinois-Ohio State game at Columbus brings together two ancient rivals but since both teams have been eliminated from titular consideration, the chief interest in this battle will center around Red Grange, who finishes his collegiate career and has promised jo make public immediately after the game his plans for the future. Grange has been so busy denying rumors that he has turned pro that mini supporters fear he will not lie in the best of condition and may not end his career in a blaze of glory. Chicago and Wisconsin, with identical records to date, meet at Stagg field. There is no love lost between these two universities and the game is always bitterly contested. They played to a tie last year but',the Badgers are favored to win tomorrow, partly because they seem to have a better team and party because the Maroon strength has been cut by the ineligibility of four regulars. Indiana and Purdue will fight it out for cellar positions at Bloomington. Each team has three defeats and no victories to boast about. The other conference schools have finished their schedules and will meet strong non-conference teams. Northwestern clashing with Notre Dame at Ssouth Bend, and lowa playing Southern- California at Los Angeles. Red Grange And His Team At Columbus, 0. Columbus, Q,, Nov 20 —The mighty Red Grange and his Illinois team arrived here from Urbana this afternoon and immediately went to the hole! where the team will stay until the game tomorrow. A huge pushing, Jostling crowd that sent up a large cheer greeted the sorrel topped ice man as he alighted from the train. The cry “Grange, Grange, Grange went up from a thousand throats as the Illinois team was escorted to waiting autos and taken to the hotel. Clothing was torn in the mad rush to see the football star who will wind np his collegiate football career here o— Mystery Shrouds Plan Os Wolfe’s Trip To Prison Muncje, Nov. 20—Deep mystery today shrouded the action of county officials Planning to remove Charles “One Arm” Wolfe, convicted slayer of Ben and Mary Hance, to the state prison to begin serving a life term. Sheriff Hoffman, told reporters that “You will not hear of the removal until Wolfe is behind the bars in Michigan City.” Wolfe, charged with being an accomplice of Dutch Anderson in the Hance murder, was convicted by a | jury in circuit court Monday. He was sentenced to life yesterday. It is understood that no effort to appeal will be made because of lack of funds, all of Wolfe’s money having been spent iu the recent trial. o England is acknowledged to have the best girl hockey players in the world, but It is likely that formidable rivals soon will be found in the United States where hockey has become a popular sport at many of the prominent schools and colleges for girls.
