PURDUE LOOMS AS TITLE CONTENDER Four College Teams In Big Ten Have Perfect Winning Record This Year By Bert Demby I’P Staff Correspondent Chicago. Oct. 21.— (U.R) - Big Ten Interest centered today around Pur due and Minnesota, the former a "dark horse" at the start of the season and the latter an admitted title contender, as all conference teams began practice for next Saturday's games. The favoritism toward the Gophers ami Boilermakers was the result of the ability exhibited by both these teams. Each has shown enough real football to create the impression that It will be hard to win from either. At present Ohio State is leading the conference as the result of two victories. scored over lowa and Michigan, and no losses. Three other teams — Chicago. Minnesota and Purdue —have perfect records but each of these has won only one game. Illinois has neither victory nor defeat charged to it but the Illini record is marred by a 7-7 Vie played with lowa last Saturday, and that after lowa had lost to Ohio. ' One of the teams with a perfect record is almost certain to receive a blemish next Saturday when Purdue meets Chicago. The Boilermakers, with their 30-16 victory over Michigan. will come here confident of victory. They appear to have the better team and incidentally as good a backfield as most coaches hope for. When Harmeson. Welch and Yunevich stat t down the field it's going to take a real | football team to stop them. It s on'y a couple of years ago that headlines in Indiana papers in speaking of high school games usualy ran something like this: "Stop Yunevich and we can win." Since this young man is only a sophomore at Purdue now it appears ' that this cry is destined to be repeat-1 1 nd many times in the Big Ten for he ! really knows how to carry a football. J' At present he is suffering from a leg 1 injury but he probably will have re- ’ covered by next Saturday. Other conference games Saturday ■ find Indiana playing Ohio State; lowa ' meeting Wisconsin; and Michigan 1 hooking up with Illinois. Ohio, with its unblemished record | must be rated favorite over the Indianans. The lowa-Wisconsin game appears to b§ one of those affairs where it is impossible to figure either team before the game. The Hawkeyes 1 proved they have a good team when held Illinois to a 7-7 tie last Saturday. The Badgers probably are better than they showed in the two defeats which ' they received from Northwestern and Notre Dame. Against the Irish Sat- 1 urday. the Wisconsin line looked to ' be anything but good. However, Coach ' Glen Thistlethwaite has some good! 1 backfield men and if he can strengthen ' his line his team may yet cause ’ trouble in the Big Ten. In the East New York, Oct. 21. —(U.R) Eastern * football fans who found a paucity of thrills in the results of Saturday's i ! college games turned today to the;’ schedule for the coming Saturday and i saw some potential excitement. The Atlantic seaboard has three ex-j 1 cellent games—Yale vs. Army. Prince-p ton vs. Navy. Harvard vs. Dartmouth. 1 Offhand, the Yale-Army affair set.’ for the great bowl at New Haven 1 1 looks like nothing so much as Army. |* The Cadets won all of their warm-up * games with ease, and nearly won from! a strong Harvard eleven, the game ending n a tie. Meantime. Yale has ■ heen up and down. The beating taken by Yale in the Georgia Tech game one week ago does not indicate enough strength to stop thrusts of Murrel and Cagle. Princeton and Navy look just about even with a leaning - the sailormen. The Tigers have lost two games in succession, to Brown and to Cornell. They may, however, have a surprise or two for the Midshipmen. Harvard ought to be able to take over Dartmouth, despite the'fine Showing made by the Big Green against Columbia. —— — 1 • •" O ~ ■" " Next Saturday's Big Ten Games Indiana at Ohio State.

FOOTBALL Wabash Pulls Victory From Fire Over South Side; Other U psets Saturday Indianapolis, Oct. 21 —(U.R) —Northern Indiana was treated to another bunch of thrills in the week end high football games. Wabefeh, hardly strong enough to be doped as a winner over South Side of Fort Wayne, turned in one of those last minute thrillers and defeated the Archers 20-13. Michigan City nosed out a one point victory 13-12 over Laporte and what might be termed a mighty upset game when Michawaka defeated by all opponents this season, revolted and won their first game of the season, 14-12, againsts the strong Elkhart team. In the South Side-Wabash game, the Wabash team fought an uphill battle to score a 20-13 victory. In the southeast section, Connersville surprised Morton of Richmond and a large following of Red and White rooters by defeating the Morton team. 14-0. Up north, the Froebel of Gary crew flashed polished form in holding the strong Hall township team of Illinois tp a scoreless tie. Horace Mann of Gary revealed power in defeating the Washington of East Chicago eleven 38-Q. Karl HulTlne’s Hammond team snapped out of it tor a 19-0 win over Whiting. Wiley of Terre Haute met a tartar at Marshall, ill., and the Lions defeated the Terre Haute bunch 33-0. Linton had little trouble with Worthington winning. 43-7. Many high school games were played during the week last week with teachers convention on at Indianapolis. Few upsets if any, were recorded in the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday struggles, although Central of Evansville nosed out a scant one-point victory, 7-6 over Bicknell. 0 ♦— ; ♦ Along the Sidelines ! —(U.R)— ) —The probability that Purdue will meet Chicago this week without the air of Alex Yunevitch, star fullback, caused considerable apprehension around the Boilermaker football camp today. Coach Phelan announced that a leg injury which Yunevitch suffered in the Michigan game has not healed and it is unlikely he will be in a suit Saturday. “Pest" Welch appeared against Depauw in the fullback position and Phelan indicated this might be Hie arrangement for this week. Bloomington, Ind. —There was to be no rest for the Hoosiers today, ac cording to Pat Page, who had plan ned a stiff afternoon practice. The 21 to 6 defeat at the hanUs of Colgate Saturday placed a serious outlook on the Indiana grid season and every cf fort will be made to stop Ohio State this week and even up the score sheet which is now topheavy with defeats. New York. — The undefeated anc united class of eastern football elev ens narrowed down to a field of si, as a result of Saturday's games. Teams yet to taste defeat or suffei a tie are Dartmouth, Cornell. Ford ham, Pitt, Williams and Davis Elk Ins. Teams beaten or tied on Saturdai which had been free from such blot; are Army, Harvard, Carnegie Tech Columbia, Holy Cross, Lafayette Penn, Penn State, and W. and J.
