Defensive football has swept the nation in the wake of the lately departed razzle-dazzle ofI tense. , If an observer could have swung ( around the big ten and peeped at yesterday's practices he'd have notes like this: "Purdue worked overtime strengthening its pass defense which went haywire at Fordham. Looks like it'll be better." "Theree Wisconsin teams alternated in a long defensive drill against Purdue formations. Not much success.” "Coach Irl Tubbs revamped his pass defense in the hope he can stop Indiana's passing—the best in the conference." "Northwestern stressed defense in preparation for Minnesota. It is the same all over the league. The trend definitely is toward defense and no coach wants to be caught napping. The results are close, bruising games in which a single touchdown or placement decide the issue. Minnesota and Ohio State are the only conference teams who have rolled up'an impressive total! in big ten games—Ohio State took] it out on Chicago. 39 to 0. and Minnesota defeated Michigan, 39 to 6, and lowa, 35 to 10. The Buckeyes, however, are leading the conference in defense, with only those 10 points by Indiana scored against them. The Hoosier# are second with 12—six ' scored by Minnesota which won and six by Illinois in a losing battle. Minnesota is next with 16 points against them and Illinois has had 17 registered by opponentsSince coaches found an answer] for razzle-dazzle, dazzle, defensive I teams have proved smarter than

Apearance of Bob Zuppke's 5-4-2 defense against Northwestern which expected Illinois' customary six man unit was typical of the new trend. , lowa, threatened with Minnesota's crushing power, opened "up with irtually a nine man line in the first period when the Gophers were travelling against the wind and couldn't punt out far enough to open up with passes. Minnesota, power and all. was bottled up until they changed goals at the end of the period and began to edge down the field on punt exchanges with the wind at their back. Soon they were able to pass and lowa was forced to reassemble its defense, j o * Today’s Sport Parade (By Henry McLemore) Spokane, Wash., Nov. 11. (U.R), —Today is Armistice Day and millions of Americans will and should observe a minute of complete silence. I will bet my kohinoor diamond stickpin, however, that there will he one group of Americans who won t be silent for even thirty seconds today, tomorrow, or anytime until after the Rose Bow' teams are picked, and the annual allAmerica selections are made. The group 1 refer to is composed of those football fanatics who think that their local teams, and the players thereon, are the best in the nation. Unlike the bald eagle or the ring-tailed titmouse, the habitat of this group is not restricted to one area It feeds as well off Boston baked beans as it does off New Orleans pralines or Texas frijoles or Columbia river trout. 1 have covered the baked bean, praline, frijole, and trout sections since I left New York, and I have yet to visit a town which doesn't have a potential Rose Bowl team, and a super all-America player. And. so help me Martha (Marthas la sister of the capable and oft-call-led on Hannah), the town is usually right in its estimate. Please remember, all all-America s don t get their names in the papers. For every man who is honored publicly each December, there are a dozen who played just as well. The forgotten men just happened to do their playing in the wrong place, bally hoo-ly speaking. But enough of that. The latest super-player to be brought to my attention is George Karamatic, a grocer's son who holds down the chair of fullback at Gonzaga university of this northwestern city. George is not a stranger to me. He was selected as all Pacific coast fullback last year, and gave Sain Francis of Nebraska a close run for top honors and you've got to be better than a fair hand at fullbacking to give Francis a close shake. It seems that Karamatic is even better this year. He has added a few pounds to his chassis, a few twists and shimmies to his hips, and upstairs has made the most modern improvements in his mental den. My authorities for these remarks are all the Spokane voters I have seen since arriving here I yesterday. All of them went overI board for Karamatic. with and without life preservers. They swear that he is the best back this sec-tion-meaning all of the northwest and the Pacific coast — has seen since George Wilson hung up nis ton. tack at the University of WashingThe very mention of him in the same sentence with Wilson is a tribute, because more than one coach has told me that Wilson, all things considered, was the best football player ever to help a coach build character. And. as you know. | nothing helps a coach build character and mould young manhood so much as a back who can pick

up those yards, throw that ball.' ; and kick that ball. Karamatic has made bis reputa ] tion with a team that- well, well,! has ten other men In pants, shoes.; and shirts- And he's made it at a school whose student body numbers no more than 400 (which is ! about the same number that some of the nation's schools have on, their football squads). He must be good. So, until further notice, he has a place along-1 side cousin Morris McLemore of Vanderbilt. Tipton of Duke. Shirley of Nebraska. White of Colorado. Jordan of Georgia Tech, and Popovich of Montana, on my distinguished eleven.
