Difficulties have beset the Northwestern eleven since th? day it opened the season against Tulane,!i and there is no relief in sight as tlie Wildcats prepare for their two final v sts against Wisconsin Saturday and Notre Dame next week.

Northwestern has had to play at ! top speed in every game this season except against Centre in Octo- | her. Northwestern administered | the titHt Big Ten defeats to Ohio j S ate, llllonis and Minnesota, and ' had to overcome a three-year jinx I to turn back Indiana. Bug Rentner, probably the great-' est sophomore back In the west, to say nothing of the whole country, .is out for the rest of the year with a shoulder injury. Rentner figured ■ in 13 cf the 21 touchdowns made by Northwestern in tlie five games he played. Capt. Hank Bruder was on the sidelines a month with small-pox and the entire team had to be vaccinated the week before the Illinois game.

SCOUTS ASKED TO GRID GAME I ■— I Indianapolis, hid., Nov. 14 -tSat- , unlay, November 22, has been dealg-. ; nated as "Scout Day" al Buller Uni-; i versity, and members of the Dec a- 1 ; ur troops of Boy Scouts, Girl | i Scouts. Campfire Girls, and Girl, Reserves have been invited to attend the Butler-Haskell Indian football game as guests of the university. The Indianapolis Chamber of j Commerce is offering trophies to I the best appearing and best drilled troops from the various Indiana I cities and hundreds of state units I are expected to compete for them. ] Between halves of the football xame, the troops wdll parade in the Butlcik Bowl. In addition to the Butler hand of sixty pieces, the Indianapolis Boy Scout band and fife and drum corps
will play at the game, and probably several other state troops will bring along th.dr banc’s. Haskell's team has always provi ided the Bulldogs with plenty of j competition, and this year the "Red I Menace" presents more strength tb.4n ever, with “Little Rabbit" I Vveuel", toe Boot it of tile West, aI gala leading the attack of :he Ind- ' .ins. Weller has led his team to seven consecutive victories this season, and under liis leadership. Hascell has been beaten onlv once in two years. Butlers tiara, cut by graduation, failure of several men to return to school, and by ineligibility, has been given a wealth of fighting spirit by Coach Harry M. Bell that makes the Bulldogs potentially dangerious to any opponent "The Scout Day" ; ran»e is expected to be one of the 1 best of the season. Judges of the best appearing group are General George Jameson. I ex-governor Emmett Branch, and ’ Senator Robert L. Morehead. GRID UPSETS ARE PREDICTED — | Chicago. Nev. 14.— <U.R> — Possi- , bility that the surprising lack of gridiron "upsets" in 1930 midwesti ern competition todav will be rem- ! edied gives unsual interest to Saturday's excellent football schedule. Eight feature games are cardi cd in the midwest and each contest has its decided favorite. The games, with the favorite named first, are Noithwestern vsr. Wisconsin. I Michigan vs. Minnesota. Illinois vs. Chicago. lowa vs. Penn State. Ohio State vs. Pittsburgh. Notre Dame vs. Drake. Marquette vs. Detroit. Purdue vs. Butler. With the season in it i semi-final week. lowa's unexpected triumph over Detroit two weeks ago ranks as the only real "ups-t" of the season, and football followers believe a supply of surprises will be forthcoming tomorrow. Wisconsin and Minnesota are regarded as the most likely candidates to furnish the upsets which will give tlr? 1930 season ranking with previous years. Wisconsin's strength has been overlooked because of the Badgers' 7 to 6 defeat by Purdue and their scoreless tie with Ohio Stats, and Coach Glenn Thistlethwaite no doubt will have his squad "keyed" to halt Northwestern's march toward an undisputed Big Ten championship, i Minnescta. handicapped by a newcoaching svstem, got away to a weak start but has shown great i improvement during recent" weeks ■ and hopes to shatter Michigan’s ' hopes of an undefeated Big Ten I reason. Tradition is against the ■ Gophers in that they have been ' abie to win only four g, sites from Michigan s nee the two schools
first met In 1892. Minnesota needs the victory to make the season a aunceaa and was a psychological advantage in that they have everything to gain and 1 m thing to lose, whereas Michigan I must win to stay in the title race.' ' Victories for Chicago, Penn State, 1 Pittsburgh or Detroit would not; I rank as real "upssts" in that all of them are conceded to be near I even terms with their opponents I ■and that tn cnly the I) troit Mar-] quette game is anything particular at slake. Marquette is one of the nation's few remaining undefeated | teams and will be fighting to pre-1 v nt Detroit from duplicating the' I tie by which Marquette last season lend d Detroit's strong of 20 con-j I secutlve victories. ' The Chicago-Illinois game holds 'interest because of the traditionalj rivalry b tween the two schools, •nd becavs,’ a v'etory will t liable the winner to escape the Big Ten cellar. The contests between lowa vs. | P nn State and Ohio State vs. | Pittsburgh, lack the usual glamour| attached to intersectional competition because none of the participants have been particularly successful in competition in their own section. However, hotli lowa and Ohio State have won new respect m recent weeks and the games premise fine competition. Notre Dame’s clash with Drake and Purdue's engagement with Butler are regarded as "breathers" and a victory for either of the smaller schools would be more of a miracle than an upset. 0 HEW DISPUTE SLOWS PLANS j New York. Nov. 14 —(UP) —Just when it seemed that the Army and Navy finally had agreed to play a ,'ootball game tor unemployment relief. a dispute over the date of the contest threatened today to jeopardize the project. West Point authorities offered o play the Navy on Dec. 6. and Anaapoiis authorities replied that as] ,ar a they were concerned the! game would have to be played Dec. i 13 or not at all. Both service academies, obviously under pressure, agreed to a post-1 season game, but neither would , • iekl regarding the date. Major Gen- j >ral W. R. Smith, superintended ; >f the mil.tary academy, sent a I • i:. :i to Rear Admiral S. S. Robison, Superintendent of .the naval academy, accepting what he professed to consider a navy proposal "or a game Dec. 6. Admiral Rob-1 son immediately rep’ied that he had not considered Dec. 6, since the Navy was scheduled to meet the University of Pennsylvania on that date. Wi.'h both superintendents pro- • essing a willingness to arrange the I game, which would provide nearly i half a million dollars for unem-1 ployment relief, the impasse regard- i ng the date of the proposed contest ; remained the only harrier. General Smith declared last night that the Army could not play the Navy on Dec. 13 because of examinations at West Point, and because the ground would be frozen. Admiral Robison countered with the suggestion that the naval acalemy also had examinations schediled for the second week in Decernie*. which the authorities at Annapolis were willing to postpone for a worthy cause. The Admiral also j uggested that a football field suit-] able for the contest could be kept I in shape until De -. 13. There the matter rested, With a I suspicion growing among foo’ball] tan? and those interested in pro-1 moting the game for unemploymen' reliet that neither service academy! was particularly anxious to play the: other. Down at Annapolis, the auuiorities confessed to a belief that the Army was bluffing and had, picked a date abritrarily on which the Navy obviously could not play. I At West Point, it was said that the game might not be desirable, since it probably would turn out to be a rough and tumble affair. The Army’s proposal for a game on Dec. 6 was made in i espouse to newspaper reports for which the] Navy denied all responsibility. The 1 Middies have a game schdeuled with I U. of P. on Dec. 6, and that con-1 test was arranged with the distinct | understanding that it could not be cancelled by either side. It is Penn's ] big game of the year, and already many tickets have been sold for the af'air. Moreover, Mayor James J. Walker and a committee of sports I writers bad arranged to have Colgate play New York university here on Dec. 6. Unless one service academy or the other yields on the matter of, a date for the proposed charity j ssme, it seems unlikely that they will meet.
