Sid Luckman Leads Pro League Passers < atcago, Nov. 14—tti'i Hid Luckman, "iH-tirlted'' by the Chicago Rears only two weeks ago. was hack leading the national football league pasxlng parad today after hnaily remembering how he used to throw them at Columbia. Luckman « passes had been backfiring on him until his brilliant comeback last week. Bated football's gr-atest T-furmallon quartterback and master of the Bears’ 3t>U intricate plays, Sid was beginning to shy away from his own signal because he couldn't hit his .......I ........

i e< elvers. Critics said the nerve-c nter of the Bears’ "T" finally had become dislocated. And Luckman, himself, remarked when benched before the Green Bay Packer game, "I wonder if I II ever play good football again ” Always a great comp Htor, the curly-haired guy from the sidewalks of New Yotk was having a tough time. The Bears’ mediocre line wasn't giving him enough time to pass. His nose was broken and be had to wear an unfamiliar noseguard. And the heralded right arm. which has gained more than lo gridiron miles for tile Hears, jtl»A wasn’t functioning. But when he fAially got into the Packer game. Nov. 4, he sparked th Bears to an upset victory, although he did little throwing Then he came back last week, taking a |>age out of his college scrap book, and pitched four touchdown passes against the Detroit Lions to hecom- once again the head and heart of the Bear often-e. Explaining his comback. the 30-yeur-oid Luckman said it just took him a little time to remember coach lam Little and Columbia where he was an All-American. For six seasons, Sid had played behind Hear lines where he could take all day passing He had forgotten the knack of running away from opposing linemen to uncork his tosses. Behind Columbia's weak line In 1937, Luckman was a master at that, often fading back 20 yards before letting the pigskin fly. ‘•Just took a little time to regain that knack." Luckman laughed. ’’lt feels gr at to be hitting them again." Trade In a Good Town — Decatur

Gophers Deny Any Dissension On Team Minneapolis, Nov. 14- tirj— Ihe Minn sota football team, run-ners-up for last place in the Big ten race, turned out for practice enmasse today and termed reports of dissension among the Gopli r*t ranks nothing more that, a "mis-

understanding." The rumor, hawed on demoralixniton following Biiturday's 4ft to u (lurhning from Indiana, spread like wildfire when only four regular* showed up for a Monday night practice s> aaion. The entire flrat airing, including hdffback Tom Cate* and guard Hoi> Hanzllk, who were injured laat week, allowed up in uniform yesterday and scoffed at reports that squad m -tubers were in revolt. , Judd Kinger, a former marine Lieutenant holding down an end poHitlon, said Monday’s poor showing was largely due to a misunderstanding because of the Armistice Day holiday. Some players Wt nt home for the weekend, some went hunting and others hud excuses from coach Bernie Bierman Kinger, an all-conference end in 1941. told reporters, "You can bet i ll be out there barreling for the rest of the season If Bierman lets me." in the past, seniors on the squad ordinarily did not turn out for Monday practice. Bierman, himself, was reticent about discussing the matter, nodding only at the squad to say, "They're here, aren't they?" Despite denials of dissension, the football mentor said he was determined to revamp the team for Saturday's Icwa game at lowa city. Bierman said he would have an entirely new backfield, and would mate several important cnanges in the line. Only four of the Gopher regulars were expected to keep their first-string berths. Charley Johnson, Minneapolis Star-Journal sports writer, commenting on Minnesota's time consecutive conference defeats, said the team had "fallen apart at the seams" since it b<came apparent that they were out of the running lor the Big Ten title. Johnson blamed the “attitude* of rhe players and said that "the boys themselves probably don't realize it. but they lost Interest and slumped drastically from the time they failed to make good their touchdown chance in the third ’ quarter of the Ohio State game. "tnable to tie the score on that occasion, they saw their hopes of a Big Ten championship fade and have steadily lost interest sines."
