NORTHWESTERN CHAMPIONS OF BIG TEN LOOP Wildcats Win First Conference Title In Loop History Evanston. 111.. Nov. 9. (U.R) Undisputed conference champions over the severest route the Rig Ten could offer, Northwestern groomed its surprising Wildcats today for the remaining games which may send the purple football banner flying over the nation for the first time in history. Defeat of Michigan and Notre Datue, expected in the wake of Northwestern's methodical drive through October, would leave the Wildcats the ranking unbeaten, untied eleven and first in line for coveted national honors. Not even the great purple team of 1930 and 1931 established such uncontested claims. Anti-climaxing their stunning upsets of Minnesota and Ohio State, th*» Wildcats clinched the conference Crown against Wisconsin Saturday. 2fi to 18, and almost paid the penalty of being champion before they had won it. The listless eleven Wisconsin scored against three times never could have whipped Minnesota. It never could have halted Ohio State's razzle dazzle nor its dangerous forward passing.

though it had thn offensive power to correct Its defensive mistakes. Clarence Tommerson and Roy Beilin, shiffy Badger sharpshooters, clicked 19 of 30 forward passes attempted, two for touchdowns and three more driving the ball into | position for th<> third Wisconsin score. The Wildcats wore lu-wihl-ered by the attack. Hut they had Steve Toth, who scored against . Minnesota. Don Heap. Don Geyer, I Ollie Adelman, and Bernie Jefferi son. There was quarterback Fred * Vanao and a hard-charging line to clear the way for them. Four times ■ they pushed the length of the field and scored. i Marquette, second of the middleI west's major undefeated und tin- ' tied teams, also suffered from overconfidence. and had to rely on a ' fourth period, 75-yard punt returns by Art Guepe to defeat Creighton. 7 to fi. The golden avalanche clear- • clearly was superior, but Creigh- ' ton. a traditional rival, defended - its lead almost to the end. Minnesota and Ohio State, loosing all their pentup furies, crushed lowa and Chicago under the season's record scores. In their first comeback game, the Gophers rolled over lowa, 52 to 0, before , 43.000 homecoming fans. It was ' the greatest crowd ever to see the Gophers pla yat home. Ohio whipped Chicago, 44 to 0. and moved into theird place behind Minnesota. Indiana managed to defeat Syrai cuae, 9 to 7, on George Miller's third period field goal, but conference prestige still lagged since the invaders were underdogs by three touchdowns. Michigan's 10-year i record of no defeats Jn intersec- . tional games fell before Pennsyl- ' vania, the only team holding an edge over the modern Wolverines. Penn dropped Michigan. 27 to 7, at Philadelphia. Purdue, gradually recovering from the Minnesota onslaught three weeks ago, still wasn't tough enough to halt Fordham's determined drive to sell its powerful Rams to the Rose Bowl committee. Fordham won, 15 to 0, halting innumerable Boilermaker thrusts deep in scoring territory.

The Decatur Yellow Jackets closed their football season last Friday afternoon, losing to Central Catholic of Fort Wayne, 13 to 0. —oOo— The Jackets finished the season with a record of three victories and five defeats. Decatur defeated Bluffton, Auburn Portland, losing to Columbia City and Central, North Side. South Side and Central Catholic, all of Fort Wayne. —oOo— The Jackets, for the two previous seasons champions of the northeastern Indiana conference, were unfortunate this season in running up against all Fort Wayne schools when they were the strongest they have been for many seasons —-oOo—Decatur more than held its own in competition with schools of Decatur's size. The only loss to a school of similar size was to Columbia City. This tilt was played only five days after the bruising North Side tilt, and the Jackets were liadly crippled for the game with the Eagles. —oOo— It has long been the contention of this writer that the northeastern Indiana conference is badly off balance with the three Fort Wayne schools competing against such teams as Decatur, Bluffton, Auburn

and Columbia City. —oOo — A much larger enrollment prevails in all the Fort Wayne schools, and it is the overwhelming power of extra reserve strength that takes its toll of the smaller schools. Man for man. the first elevens of the Fort Wayne schools and the smaller teams, are about evenly matched. But. where Decatur et al have perhaps five or six capable substitutes. North Side, South Side, and Central boast of tour or five teams. Footbawl favors, and has for | years, favored a football conference in this end of the state, made up of teams from such •i towns as Decatur, Bluffton, et al, forgetting the Fort Wayne elevens. Some day we may get our wish. —oOo — South Side became undisputed i conference and city champions Sat- | urday with a 25-13 victory over the | Central Tigers. South Side, after 1 losing to Van Wert, Ohio, in the opening game of the season, has been undefeated, bowling over all - opposition since the opener. > —oOo— With the local football season i ended. Footbawl goes into the dis- ‘ card for another season. Both De- ■ catur high schools start the bas- - ketball season Friday, and Footbawl will be replaced by Basketbawl. i o Worthman Is Named Honorary Captain ! Bob Warthman star fullback ar.d ’ senior in Decatur high school, was , named honorary captain of the Yellow Jacket eleven for the 1936 sason, in a meeting tnis noon.
