Illini, Upset By Purdue, To Play Michigan Chicago, Oct. 27 — (UP) — Once-beaten Illinois, defending big nine football champions, rated today as the possible kingmaker of the 1947 western conference grid season. Toppled for the first time in 11 games 'by Purdue, 14 to 7, the Illini will be on the rebound this weekend for undefeated Michigan, ranked among the top teams in the nation and the sole leader of the big nine chase presently. A Michigan * victory would virtually assure the Wolverines of at least a share of the crown. Every other team in the league, except Wisconsin, has been defeated at least once in the conference, and although Michigan still has to play against Indiana, Wisconsin and Ohio State none of those teams looks capable of pulling an upset. Defeat of the Wolverines, however, by Illinois would throw the race into a free-for-all. Both Illinois and Purdue would be likely candidates to at least tie Michigan for the title, each with five victories and one defeat. Following the Michigan game Illinois plays Ohio State and Northwestern and was certain to be favored in both clashes. Purdue this weekend plays lowa and follows with Minnesota and Indiana. The Boilermakers have been gaining strength every weekend and possibly could vanquish their remaining three foes if it would mean a share of the league crown. Other games this week end are Indiana at Ohio State, Pittsburgh at Minnesota, and Wisconsin at Northwestern. Purdue beat Illinois Saturday with a surprisingly good line and Bob De Moss’ passing. The Boilermakers scored first on Harry Szulborski's plunging and De Moss’ passing. Perry Moss sparked an Illinois drive for the tying score with a pass to Chick Maggioli. De Moss completed two throws for 34 yards in the third period, however, for the winning tally.

Michigan was behind for the first time this year against Minnesota, but Bob Chappuis completed a 40-yard pass to bump Elliott for a touchdown and a one-point margin. Then in the final period Gene Derricotte sped 20 yards for the clinching six-pointer, and a 13 to 6 triumph. North western’s Tom Worthington gave the Wildcats a 7-6 victory over Indiana. He intercepted a pass by Bob Young and sped 35 yards for the tying marker. Jim Farrar kicked the winning point.

“Just Twice the Best Corn-” ' Indiana Farmer Gets Double Yield From DeKalb i Kenneth Ije Master, of Portland, Route 1, planted 20 acres of a hybrid which he had used before, and because of the wet spring, he be- I came discouraged with his prospects ’ for a good crop—so much so that he replanted 4 acres to DeKalb 404A. ' And here’s what he says, “8 rows of ; my DeKalb made a bigger load than ■ 16 rows of the other corn. DeKalb , is just twice the best corn—that’s all. I’d been ahead if I had tom up all the other corn and replanted the whole field to DeKalb 404A.’’ He says his 404A got ripe sooner than the other com which was planted 8 weeks earlier.

Guernsey Breeder Saves Crop with Early DeKalb O. M. Miller of Route 1, Rochester, Indiana, is another fine Purebred Guernsey UggaEsO* jW Breeder that believes in good corn and good dairy animals. And that combination has been profitable for Mr. Miller. This year Mr. Miller was “up a stump” because of the late, wet spring—but early varieties of DeKalb saved the day for him. He planted DeKalb 450 on May 26 and it was ready for cribbing on October 15. He says his DeKalb corn crop this year would almost pay for his land. Drives 400 Miles in Wain “When I knew we bad bare some early com S ■’s® last spring,” says Claude Tribolet of .v'tL, * Route 2, Roanoke, ■' Indiana, I drove 400 miles into Michigan looking for it.” He didn’t get it, but he did look up his DeKalb dealer and bought DeKalb. 240 and 404A from him. And he says, “I’m not a bit sorry. My DeKalb is almost 100 percent made—a good yield and good standing.” Mr. Tribolet still has 14 bushels of a late competitive hybrid in his attic. He says, “I’ve bought DeKalb again for next year ao that’s your answer as to whether or not I like it” See Xovr DeKalb Dealer Today (HUGH NIDLINGER R. 3, Decatur, Ind. t CHRIS A.

Army Winning Streak Snapped By Lone Point New York, Oct. 27—(UP)—The nation’s major football team, their ranks considerably thinned by Saturday’s stupefying upset parade, begin their last mad dash towards bowl bids this week. Many of the mighty had fallen as only the mighty can fall: Army's era on invincibility was snapped by a 21-20 loss to Columbia. Illinois’ two-year streak was halted by Purdue, 14-7. California’s rip-roar-ing comeback under Lynn Waldorf was jarred by a 39-14 loss to Southern Cal. West Virginia’s hopes for leadership in the east were dispelled by Penn State, 21-14. And so it went, game by game, until the football prognosticators switched to cyanide because cyanide is better (and quicker). Now this week tells the tale. UCLA, 7-0 loser to Southern Methodist in an intersectional game, battles defeat-smarting California to remain in the fight with Southern Cal for the Rose Bowl invitation. Should UCLA lose, that would boost Southern Cal’s already good chances to the state of Hollywood superlatives. The Trojans meanwhile will be meeting Washington in a breather. Georgia Tech is a major possibility for the Sugar Bowl, and the rambling wreckers are one crew which has withstood the ravages of the upset this season. Tech, after a 38-0 whitewash of the Citadel has a Saturday date with mighty Duke, also a definite bowl prospect after a 13-6 win over Wake Forest. Texas continued to march towards the southwest conference championship—and an automatic Cotton Bowl invitation —with a shaky 12-0 victory over Rice. And now the Longhorns go against Southern Methodist. Other hot bowl prospects are Virginia, which maintained its I record with a 35-6 win over VMI, , Kentucky, and Penn State. Virginia j meets Richmond, 20-fr victor over Hampden-Sydney, and Penn State tackles Colgate, which tied Brown, 13-13. And Kentucky, 7-6 winner over Michigan State, plays AlaI bama in a Waterloo match. 0 H. S. FOOTBALL Fort Wayne South 13, Fort Wayne C. C. 6. South Bend Riley 25, Michigan City 0.

Steelers Take Lead In East Division By United Press The Pittsburgh Steelers, leading the eastern division of the National Football league, loomed today a strong threat to win the division championship—something totally unexpected at the start of the season. Playing the sound, basic football of coach Jock Sutherland, the Steelers paraded to their fourth victory yesterday when they drubbed the New York Giants, 38 to 21, in one of the season’s dullest games. The New Yorkers, despite the recently acquired Paul Governali, offered only token resistance, but the Steelers took the opportunity to display their new and surprising strength. The Philadelphia Eagles assumed ranking as the Steelers’ chief eastern threat by downing the Los Angeles Rams, 14 to 7. The Chicago Bears, third-placers in the west, took the starch out of the Washington Redskins as eastern contenders by handing them their third loss in five games, 56 to 20. It was the worst Redskin regular season defeat in history. The Chicago Cards and the Green Bay Packers matched wins to continue in a tie for western division leadership. The Cards rebounded from their loss to Los Angeles last week by thumping the Boston Yanks, 27 to 7. Paul Christman completed 20 out of 33 passes for a total of 249 yards, but ground smashers Charlie Trippi, Red Cochrane, and Marshall Goldberg were almost as effective. The Packers trounced the Detroit Lions, 34 to 17, by the not-always-simple method of shutting out their ace scorer, Bill Dudley. Cleveland On Top By United Press Cleveland sat atop the All America Conference western divission standing today, thanks to the realization that there’s more than one way to win a football game.

That did work, and, with Otto Graham doing the heaving, coach Paul Brown’s crew downed the coast team, 14 to 7, and moved into undisbuted possession of the western division lead. In the east, it was the same story. The Buffalo Bills battered the Brooklyn line yesterday and secured a 35 to 7 victory which put them in a tie with the New York Yankees for the eastern division lead. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Dons played track meet with the Baltimore Colts and ran up a 56 to 0 win. 0 Return From Canadian Hunting, Fishing Trip H. P.
