PURDUE IS BIC TENFtVORITE Chicago. Nov. 11. (U.R) Purdue's Boilermakers, showing the beat form n Purdue team ever has exhibited, stood out today as the logical choice for the western conference championship. Starting out merely as the “dark horse" of the conference this year. Purdue has played rings around all opponents and appears to be one of the beat teams the Big Ten has seen in years, it can do everything at things should he done, but It has de pended on sheer speed in most games Possessing a backfield which has > ... ♦Vi r~. rVnrrcsf tn r» intlß IClUHil"' n»h x/a ».»..•« «--- —- . Four Horsemen, who did right well I for Notre Dame five years ago, thi 1 Boilermakers merely have blocked off Opposing lines while their backs did the scoring. One can't term Coach Jimmy Phelan lucky for possessing the backs h> > ooes for he developed them and it miis be said that he has done a good ; job for when Harmeson, Welch, Yune vich and White start down the field it certainly is going to take a real team to stop them. Harmeson, Welch and Yunevich have the ball carrying ability and White, playing quartetback, has the type of brain which re minds one of Benny Friedman, who played for Michigan. This boy Whi e simply doesn’t make , mistakes. His judgment has been overshadowed by the great runs turn- < cd in by his teammates, but one needs to look at only the Michigan and Wisconsin games to find out the value of White. Against Michigan. Purdue was belt nd 16-6 at one time and ithe Boiler makers had failed to gain on all plays. Finally, White, head bowed in thought, walked away from his team for a moment. Then he went back • and started plays through the Michigan tackles —the result was that Purdue won, 30-16. Against! Wisconsin last week. Pnr- \ due was stopped by the Badger line, i Then White called passes and Pur- c due rolled up 13 points for a victory, r The Boilermakers run into their hardest game next week against lowa e and it they get over that obstacle the v team doubtless will remain undefeat- I ed tor the season. Besides lowa. Pur- I due yet must meet Indiana but, al-jl though the Hoosiers always play their best game against the Boiler- 1; makers, Phelan's boys should be a t 10-1 shot to win. Purdue’s great opportunity for its first B g Ten ti.le is. partly, the re ! suit of lowa's victory over Minnesota ” last Saturday. The Hawkeyes went into the game against the undet'ea ed Gophers as the underdogs and came I out with a 9-7 victory. Other games of the day in which B g Ten teams figured resulted as follows; Northwestern. 13; Ohio, 6; Wisconsin 20, Chicago 6; Illinois 17 Army 7; Michigan 14. Harvard 12. Northwestern, possessing much more than it has been given credit for owning, had little trouble winning from Ohio, and Wisconsin won its fit st conference game by triumphing over the weak Chicago outfit. The Badgers previously had lost three games in a row. Illinois scored two freak touchdowns and a fleid goal to defeat the Army. The ouchdowns came as the result of an intercepted lateral pass (a rare play in football) and a punt which bounced the wrong way as Slit hit the ground. Wolgast, breaking through the Army line, grabbed the lateral pass and ran 85 y. rds foi a touchdown. Kawal allowed the bad pun to bounce back as far as i: would, then picked it up and took a few steps over the Army goal line. Michigan fought hard against Har vard and achieved its first victory tn five starts against the eastern team The other game of Saturday which brough leading middlewestern teams into action resulted in a Notre Dame victory over Drake, 19-7. The Iris!, were not extended and the result of the game allowed them to continue their hopes for a«national title. — o Northwestern Fullback Leads Big Ten Scorers Chicago, Nov. 11.— (U.R) -Russell Bergherm, Northwestern fullback, and probably as good a line plunger as there is in the Big Ten, took over the western conference scoring lead today. Bergherm scored two touchdowns] against Ohio State last Saturday, glv-{ ing him a total of 30 points for the year. Art Pharmer of Minnesota, who held the lead until Saturday, failed to add to his total in the game with lowa and slipped Into second place.
