TIE LIKELY IN BIG TEN RACE ■ , 111 U ■. I — Ohio State And Minnesota Favored To Share Conference Title Chicago. Nov. 18.- 'U.Rl—Ohio States first conference title in 15 years appeared imminent today as Big Ten teams prepared to wind up their eight game schedules. The Buckeyes undoubtedly will have to share the championship with Minnesota, however. The Gophers have only Wisconsin in their path toward a second conference title. Ohio will conclude its season Saturday against Michigan, the team that Minnesota whipped. 40 to 0. last week. It was the worst defeat handed .Michigan in the history of the conference. The other games bring together traditional opponents. Chicago will play at Champaign. lowa at Northwestern. and Indiana at Purdue. The Indiana-Purdue contest will renew a 40-year feud for possession of the "old oaken bucket." The Hoosiers now hold the trophy because of their upset victory over the Boilermakers last year. When the two teams clash this week. Indiana will be an even choice for one of the few times in history. Coach Bo McMillin’s red-jersied warriors trounced Chicago. 24 to 0, Saturday. PurduG came back after losing three straight to win from lowa. 12 to G. Chicago and Illinois should put on another great battle, especially if Jay Berwanger. Maroon captain, is able to play. He was badly hampered by a shoulder injury against Indiana, the team he had beaten twice almost Individually. The lowa-Northwestern game will bring together two of the best and biggest lines In the conference. The Wildest are at peak from and boast three straight victories They turned back Wisconsin last week, 32 to 13, with a brilliant running attack. Ollie Adelman, a substitute from Milwaukee, scored three of the Wildcat touchdowns. The Badgers flashed a passing attack which had Northwestern dizzy In the second half and which resulted in four touchdowns. Two of the touchdowns were not allowed by the officials but they should have been. Northwestern failed to complete a throw during the entire game because of the alert Badger backs. On the final play of the second period Clarence Tommerson caught a pass and was tackled on the Northwestern goal line. Referee Frank Birch ruled that the runner was stopped an inch from the goal and refused to permit the score. Practically everyone else in the stadium was convinced that Tommerson was over. In the third period. Eddie Jankowski ran 61 yards for a touchdown but the officials, none of whom was within 20 yards of the play, said he was run out of bounds
