Michigan And Illinois Tops In Big Nine Chicago, Oct. 20 —(UP) — The big nine football championship probably will be decided Nov. 1 when Michigan and Illinois, presently deadlocked tor the lead in the conference race, tangle at Champaign. The two clubs emerged from Saturday's play as the standout teams in the circuit, and both of them were certain to be heavy favorites to win this weekend and go into the payoff clash with clean records. . *, Michigan overwhelmed Northwestern, .49 to 21, while Illinois was knocking Minnesota out of the undefeated class, 40 to 13. There never was any doubt about the eventual victor in either game. In the third, big nine contest Saturday lowa and Ohio State fought to a 13-13 tie. Outside the conference, every big nine club was successful. Wisconsin gave Yale its first defeat, 9 to 0; Purdue swamped Boston U„ 62 to 7; and Indians pumtneled Pittsburgh, 41, to 6. This weekend Michigan faces Minnesota "while Illinois plays Purdue in the two standout scraps. In the third conference game Indiana meets Northwestern while in nonleague fights Wisconsin plays Marquette, Ohio State opposes Pittsburgh and lowa travels to Notre Dame. Perry Moss was more than enough for Illinois to down Minnesota Saturday. The passing star hit on every one of his seven passes and two of them went for touchdowns. Dike Eddleman romped S 9 yards on a kickoff return for another tally, and before the game was over even the mini second string was overpowering the tired Gopher line. Michigan was equally dextrous. The Wolverines scored twice in the first six minutes, and even though Northwestern tallied in the first period also, Michigan bounced back with two more touchdowns in the second period to clinch victory.

ii ng.—— Pittsburgh Steelers Lead East Division * ♦ By United Press The Pittsburgh Steelers are atop the standings in the National Football league’s eastern division today, and for that you can thank Johnny Clement. I They call him Johnny (Zero) Clement around the Smoky City, and what a laugh he must have had from that nickname yesterday. The guy named Zero passed for two touchdowns, ran for two more and then set up a fifth as the Steelers walloped the Philadelphia Eagles, 35-24. That sent the Steelers to the head of the class, for at the same time the Green Bay Packers were ramming through 17 points in the last period to unset the Washington Redskins, 27-10, before 28,572. Indian Jack Jacobs simply outpassed Sammy Baugh in that one. Meanwhile, the western division was snarled into a three-way tie between Los Angeles, the Chicago Cardinals and Green Bay. The Rams moved into the show, thanks largely to Bob Waterfield’s passing, by knocking off the invading Cardinals, 27-7, before 69,631 setting a new league attendance record. The Bears, with Sid Luckman once again proving that there’s life in the old dog yet, rolled to a 33 to 24 triumph over the Detroit Lions before 36,105 at the Windy City. Clement’s performance, of course, was the day's brightest spot. Filling the shoes of bullet Bill Dudley, his TD passes were for 30 yards in the first period and 19 in the third. His runs were for five yards in the third and 23 yards in the fourth. Dubious honor of the dullest ball game of the day went to the New York Giants and the Boston Yanks. A crowd of 37,144 fog-bound customers peered as the Yanks won it, 14-0, although many of the folks had long gone home when the final gun barked. Paul Governali passed the Yanks to victory with touchdown aerials in the first and second periods. The standings: Eastern Division W L T Pct. Pittsburgh 3 2 0 .600 Washington 2 2 0 .500 Philadelphia 2 2 0 .500 Boston 12 1 .333 New York 0 3 1 .000

Football Spotlight On West Saturday New York, Oct. 20—(UP)—That fickle finger arbitrarily called the football spotlight shifted its gleam to the west coast today where California and Southern Cal battle this week in a game which may well produce a Rose Bowl team. Undefeated Cal vs Southern Cal, the team tied only by Rice in a non-conference game. Both breezed this pasU week, ; California by 21-6 over Washington i State and USC by 48-6 over Oregon ; State. ■ Texas meets Rice and Penn bat- ; ties Navy in the kind of games that ■ ever threaten a surprise. : Army knows that Columbia is : badly battered after its 34-13 loss : to Penn.

UN Fails To Break East-West Deadlock Stalemate Holds On Poland's Successor United Nations Hall. Flushing N. Y„ Oct. 20.—(UP)—The United Nations general assembly failed again today to crack the crucial east-west deadlock over Poland's successor on the UN security council and Czechoslovakia, nipping in the bud a reported compromise plan, served notice it would not serve if elected. The Czechs renounced any desire for the disputed eastern Euro- ' pean seat on security council after i the 57 United Nations failed in . their 10th and 11th ballots to i choose between the Soviet Ukraine, Russia’s candidate, and India, the i United States’ nominee. On the 10th ballot the Ukraine got 29 votes and India 24, with 35 required for election. On the 11th, the Ukraine got 30 and India 25, with the necessary majority 37. In more than three weeks since the 9th ballot was taken, behind-the-scenes dickering has failed to change the line up. The Latin American states have stuck to their commitment to vote for the Ukraine in return for the Soviet votes which helped elect Argentina to the security council. The fuility of further balloting prompted assembly president Oswaldo Aranha of Brazil to move on to other business, including the explosive Balkans dispute, with a view to returning to the security council dispute later in the assembly session. The 10th ballot presumably gave the Russian candidate 19 Latin American votes, on the basis of
