THREE ELEVENS ] REMAIN UNBEATEN I Notre Dame. Minnesota And Illinois On Top Os Heap In Middle West By Clark B. KeKlsey, (UP Staff Correspondent) Chicago, Nov. 7.-- (I P) Notre Dame. Minnesota, and Illinois today entered the final fortnight of the | 1927 football season us the only major undefeated teams of the middle west. From present Indications none • of these teams is likely to lose he- ■ tween now and the close of the season. The games between Minnesota and Notre Dame last Saturday had been looked upon wish interest in the belief that one of those two great teams would be eliminated from the unbeaten column. But their 7-to-7 tie left the matter of supremacy still in doubt. Illinois, meanwhile, kept its record clean by defeating lowa, 14 to 0. 1 Perhaps the most unusual thing about these three leading teams is that all of them have suffered at least one tie game. Illinois was tied in a non-conference game by lowa State; Minnesota was tied by both Indiana i and Notre Dame. Notre Dame, in being tied by Minnesota, probably eliminated itself from any hope of a mythical national title. Notre Dame is not in the big ten conference and the tie game did not I have any effect on Minnesota's stand- ' ing in the title chase. Michigan climbed a notch in the standing by defeating Chicago, 14 to 0; Purdue, after beating Harvard and then losing its first two games against conference opponents, finally broke into the win column by giving one more boot to the crumbling Northwestern team, IS to 6. The other members of the big ten played non-conference opponents, Ohio State suffering a 20 to 0 ‘humiliation at the hands of Princeton: Indiana whipped Michigan State. 33 to 7; and Wisconsin turned back Grinnell of the Missouri Valley conference, 20 to 2. | From a championship standpoint this week's feature game will be at Champaign where Illinois will have ! its unbeaten record attacked by the Chicago Maroons. The lllini should win if dope holds pi.'f.d. but supposedly poor Chicago teams have been known in the past to spring surprises STOP BAB BREATH People afflicted with bad breath find quick relief through Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets.

Edwards discovered the formula after 20 years of practice among patients afflicted with bowel and liver complaint,withtheatt endant badbrea th.
