Figure Qne way and Decatur should win i by a wide margin. Take another ] set of scores, and the dope leans Just as heavily toward the Tigers. Bluffton has shown to much better advantage against Central and North Side as far as comparative scores show. However. Garrett defeated the Tigers by a 20-0 margin while Decatur and Garrett battled to a 6-6 tie. Then again. Columbia City walloped the Yellow Jackets, while the Tigers held the Eagles to a scoreless tie. Yet. Decatur downed Portland 12-7, and the next week Portland trounced Bluffton. 6-2.

MINNESOTA AND IOWA SATURDAY Big Ten Spotlight Shifts To Minneapolis This Week-end i Chicago, Oct. 24 -(U.R) The Big Ten spotlight shifts this week] from Ann Arbor, where ft shined ! on Michigan and Ohio State in their battle before 93,508 spectat-! ors last week, to Minneapolis/ where lowa and Minnesota stage: Saturday’s most important western conference battle. Minnesota's championship aspirations are slim Indeed as a re- i suit of ties with Indiana. 6-6. and! Purdue. 7-7. but the Gophers are likely to play an important role in ; j deciding the ultimate titleholder. lowa is leading the Big Ten ■ race with two victories and no defeats and it is asking too much '! of the Hawkeyes to win the title I after three disastrous years in j which they didn't win a conferI ence game. I Coach Ossie Solem has develonj ed a good, game football team in 'I his second year at lowa, but the | Hawkeyes have about shot their I bolt. If Minnesota doesn't stop them this week. Michigan will ! Nov. 11. And if the upset of up- ! sets should happen and lowa gets ! by both Minnesota and Michigan. ' then the Hawkeyes will find Pur--1 due barring their path Nov. 18. It s 100 or more to 1 that lowa can't get by Minnesota. Michigan and Purdue without losing and if the Hawkeyes win one of these games it will be surprise. But watch lowa next year. They have come a long way in j one season under Solem. and are I going places in 1934. As It is, Minnesota, Michigan and Purdue will find the Hawkeyes tough, and will have to turn on all their pow er to beat this young, hustling bunch of huskies from out where the tall corn grows. With lowa likely to be toppled by Minnesota, gaining strength with each game. Michigan has an opportunity to forge into the leadership this week by brushing aside the young Chicago Maroons. Michigan is likely to have a letdown after its important game with Ohio St«te, but the Wolverines with their rock of gibraltar defense and John Regeczi's punting, should win under wraps from Chicago by a close margin. Chicago might even score on Michii gan if it can get its passing game ] working, but the Wolverines seem I capable to getting a touchdown I any time they want one against teams like Chicago. Purdue hopes to improve its: position in the championship race by adding a victory over Wisconsin. already beaten by Illinois and ; lowa. The Boilermakers have ! beaten Chicago. 14-0. and tied I , Minnesota 7-7. In the light of ] Minnesota's triumph over Pit'sI buret. 7-3, Purdue's tie with the ! Gophers doesn't look near as "disgraceful” as it did a week ago. I Before the season is over the ] Minnesota tie may turn out to be , a moral victory for Purdue iff I I stead of a rude shock as it was I first termed. Northwestern, having found it has an offense, is an even choice against Ohio State, wliich found it had little offense against Michigan. The Wildcats have learned a lot about handling the ball since they lost to lowa, and their running attack lias improved 109 per cent since the lowa disaster. o I Oregon’s Old Age Pension Puzzles 35 Counties — Salem. Ore.—(U.R) —Oregon counties are wondering what to do with [the old age pension law. which bei comes effective January 1. The measure, passed by the last I legislature, directs the county I courts to pay not more than S3O per month to each qualifying applicant over 70. Methods of financing ' were left up to the counties, and I each one of Oregon's 36 counties is already strained to meet regulaf i expenses. County courts claim it will be' impossible to pay the pensions I i without exceeding the six per cent | limit on increased expenses, set by law. A special session of the Oregon legislature this fall is expected to take up the matter. Byrd to Use Air Line Plane For Polar World Chicago.—(U.R)—A regular airline , i plane will be used by Admiral Rich- ] ard E.

Smith, l of the expedition, in Chicago, and taken to Boston. This is the first time that a regulation transport plane ever has I been taken from line duty for. Polar exploration work.

Yet Pierrot's dashing costume makes a colorful addition to any Hallowe’en party, and a perfect foil for a dainty Pierrotte.
