OHIO STATE IN FAVORITE SPOT FOR BIG TEN Buckeyes Favored By Schedule After Defeating Northwestern Chicago Oct. 25 —(VP)-- Ohio State's Buckeye scourge finally has begun to roll, unhampered by its customary championship hysteria, but with the same devastating fury of old. Toppling Northwestern's Big Ten champions, 7 U' 0. the Bucks moved in on the inside track in the race for the title. Their schedule is more favorable than Minnesota’s and Wisconsin, the third “perfect record" team, faces sudden death from . now on. Ohio meets easy Chicago this this week, Minnesota battles Notre Dame, Northwestern travels to Wisconsin. Indiana to Nebraska. Michigan t.- Illinois and lowa to Purdue. A Jdocked punt brought Northwestern's downfall after the wildcats had hammered close to Ohio State's goal on two occasions. Ohio recovered on North western's 35- 1 yard line and aided by Nick Wasylik's 21-yard jaunt around right end. the Buckeyes quickly moved to the thr e-yard line. Dick Nardi carried it ..ver on the sixth play after the > recovery. Jim McDonald, whose placement for the extra point was blocked finally converted with a dash of 13 yards after receiving a lateral pass from Nardi. who had scooped up the bounding ball. Notre Dame's invasion of Minnesota will rank as this week’s headliner despite unexpected reverses of both teams. The Irish regained a bit of their blasted prestige with a fiery come back against the Navy on a snowblanketed field that turned what might have been a tight game into a nightmare of fumbles. A fourth period touchdown and safety wiped out the Navy’s early margin of seven points resulting from an Irish fumb'e on the nineyardjine in the first period. Notre

PITT BACK TO | “SIMON PORES" . Pittsburgh U. To Stop Subsidizing Football Players ’ Pittsburgh. Oct. 25 (U.P/ Cessation of "special grunts" to Univer- ’ sity of Pittsburgh football players ' was given "100 per r ent approval" today by Dr. John B (Jock) Sutherland. head coach made famous by the power of Ih.s grid elevens. 1 Pitt’s simon pure policy, announced Saturday as the Panthers threw unbeaten Wisconsin for a 21-0 defeat, admittedly may weaken future football teams: but, said athletic dictator James Hagan, the only financial help football players will get from "now on" is through an agency sot up "to secure employment for students with athletic ability on the same basis such help is given other students whose resources limit their chances of completing their education." "I believe the program announced by the athletic council is one of the most progressive steps the university could lake,” Sutherland said. "Pitt can lx- sure that so far as the football coaches are concerned. our cooperation will be 100 , per cent." Hagan said the new policy had, been in effect since start of the 1937 grid season. It is meant to put Pitt's athletic program "in accord with the best traditions of intercollegiate athletic practices." After expiration of present commitments in 1940. Hagan said. Pitt 1 will confine its schedules almost exclusively to eastern teams, the school's "natural field." instead of booking games with the powerhouse elevens of the midwest and other sections. . Pitt also plans to cut its schedule to eight games per season, all , with major elevens, because. Hag- , an said, a “football game no longer ( is a football game when teams as , powerful as the Panthers can run , roughshod over teams of schools , which under normal conditions do not attract an abundance of football material." , o SUPREME COURT CONTINUED fK<>M significance was lost from the Duke challenge, however, due to the fact that the court had already agreed in another case to rule on constitutionality of the loans. Immediately after presenting its ' list of orders, the court recessed 1 for two weeks—a period expected to be devoted to writing decisions on cases on which argument has been heard thus far this year. The refusal of the court to review Patterson's latest conviction was tantamount to upholding the lower court sentence. It was expected to mean that Patterson must serve out his sentence barring further action by the state courts. o RIVAL UNIONS .‘ONTTNUED FROM PVTF l>NE> “We were discussing the preyedure to be followed in our conference." he said. Murray added that the same 13 men would return l’. the afternoon session. Murray and Harrison apparently presided jointly over the first conference which leaders of both camps hope will bring reconciliation of the two great organizations which claim to represent 7,300,000 organized workers. On basis of the i.int statement, it appearer that the first rough outlines of the reconciliation problems confronting the conference had been explored, and first direct steps toward settlement of labor's war could begin when the conference reconvenes later today. The thirteen men upon wh'gn hope for a unified labor front depends. emphasized their friendly attitude and “open minds" on the explosive issues which have driven a rift in the ranks of organized workers. Harrison, suave chairman of the federation’s conferees, joked with reporters as he left the hotel suite. “1 don't see any black eyes," cine reporter said. “That's right,” Harrison said. "This is a peaceful meetirg. We are here to make peace.” The same friendly attitude was borne out by James Carey, youthful represntative of United Radio workers on the CIO board of conferees. He was asked whether he had conferred with G. M. Bugniazet. spokesman of the A. F. of L. committee f"r the International brothhood of electrical workers. "Oh” said Carey, “Gus and I are old friends.” Joseph Curran, brawny seaman who Ts spokesman for the National Maritime union on the 10-man CIO, said: “All we did was arrange procedures. It's Hke Jining up the horses at the post. The 'books are closed; the bets are down; the race is an.” 0 Bean Stalk Like Jack's Fulton, Mo —<U.R>— P. H.

DEAIH ELIXIR TOLLISFORTY Federal. State Agents Fight To Prevent Further Deaths Chicago. Oct 25 -ftJ.R.' -Federal' and state agents searched the I shelves of country drug stores and doctors' offices today for 700 hot- . ties of an "elixir of death." fearing ( that uninformed physicians might : at any moment prescribe a fatal ' does in mistaken belief it would i save a life The potion—elixir of sulfanila-, mide and diethylene glycol — was . manufactured as a cure for strep-, tococcus infections, meningitis. I gonorrhea, and other diseases. | Not until they had administered it | to scores of patients did .physicians discover that the compound used: to dissolve the life-giving sulfani- j lamide was. in many instances. | deadly. Forty persons who were known ■ to have partaken of it are dead i The American medical association i has received reports of "quite a ' number” more. Task of the feder-1 al and state agents was to inform ' physicians in secluded districts of the virulent effects of the solution ■ before they could administer it. Sulfanilamide, a white, crystal line, slightly bitter almost odorless substance, is not deadly. Each fluid ounce of the elixir contains 40 grains of sulfanilamide. The solvent is about 72 per cent die- ; thylene glycol. The glycol compound, according to Dr. Morris Fishbein. editor of the AMA's journal, is responsible tor the deaths. A similar compound. is used in some automobile anti-freeze solutions. Its effects resemble those of bichloride of mercury, for which there is no antidote. Most treacherous feature of the elixir was the known curative quality of the sulfanilamide. Administered in other forms, it has cured the di«ea«t>s for which the
