BIG TEN TITLE IS AT STAKE Chicago, Oct. 31. (U.R> —Title flop s of four cf the remaining five ewntenders for the Big Ten championship will be in the bulanc tomorrow as the 1930 season enters th final month. The fifth aspirant,' Michigan, has an open date and, will not resume conference competiti, n until Nov. 15. ’Northwestern and Minnesota, i eroup <1 with Michigan in the Bi;;, Tin's unbeaten trio, meet at Mln-, eeapolis in the feature contest of- - day and i nthe first (dash ofi unbeaten conference clubs since q th opening week of the season. ii Purdue, which bases its titular J hopes on the possibility of no team : completing the season undefeated.; meets Bob Zuppke's fast improv- 1 ing Illinois team at Champaign, i Wisconsin endangers its already Ii slim championship chance in a i gnnt with Ohio State at Columbus, t Ohio. 1 Northwestern, rated as the strong- I(,st team in t{ie conference, is a!; favorite to defeat Minnesota, but i expects a hard battle. The Goph-, I rs rallied after a disasterous de-i1 feat by Vanderbilt and in their, i games with Stanford and Indiana I displayed defensive strength which ; i may cause the Wildcats pl- nty of ■ grief. Minnesota apparently does t not possess sufficient offensive power to threaten Northwestern.

but if the Gophers are as succrsu i fill in stopping passes as they were ago list Stanford's running attack there Is a strong possibility that | .the gams will produce a scoreless | i tie. I Illinois made n strong showing against Michigan last week, hit* ' has a light and inexperienced team and is conceded only an outside chance aga nst Purdue. The 8011-1 ennakers* powerful squad ha si everything a erach could ask and , unless it suffers a decided letdown after last we;k's gruelling bat lie with Wisconsin should win band-' i’lv. A It to T 3 defeat by Michigan in the season’s opener shuttered Purdue's hopes of a second sue-, (■essive undefeated season, hut thei Hoile:makers play six conference, games, on? more than any other' team, and have the best chance to I win the title on a percentage basis, if no team goes through the year with a clean slate. Wisconsin's highly touted “power house" dropped a 7 to 6 decision to Purdue last week and is in a mood which promises grief fcr Ohio State. Wisconsin had high hopes of sweeping its slate and winning the title. With one defeat: abeady chalked up, they have only slim hopes of the championship,' but they will be battling to the finish and are determined to hand Ohio State a more decisive defeat than eith-r Michigan or Northwest-' ern. Ohio State has a sophomore squad of great possibilities and may hand the Badgers a surprise The 1 Buckeyes have outgained every
