Evansville Reitz Still Top Prep 11 Indianapolis, Nov. 18—(UP) — The high-flying football eleven of Evansville Reitz, prepariag for its season clincher against city foe Memorial Thanksgiving, had established a* unique record today. The Panthers led the United Press weekly rankings eight weeks! ago and were still tops today. With nine convincing triumphs in the record books, coach Herm Byers’ club still was favored to win the mythical state crown, vacated this year by East Chicago Roosevelt. Whiting’s Oilers, the pocket city boys' closest rival for mythical state honors, will put their perfect nine-game record on the line against South Bend Central Saturday. The fracas will decide the winner of the northern Indiana, conference. Meanwhile, Lafayette Jefferson’s 13 to 0 loss to neighbor West Lafayette dropped the Broncos from fifth to seventh place behind New Castle, with whom they share the north central conference, both according to the won-lost record and the Dickinson rating system. Fort Wayne Central, 25 to 0 loser . to city foe South last Saturday, dropped from the “Big Ten’’ and; moved Indianapolis Broad Ripple. > undefeated in eight starts, into the elite. Ripple will close against [ crosstown rival Howe Friday. | Terre Haute Garfield replaced Bloomington, although beaten 7 to 0 by the Panthers. However, the pollsters believed Garfield's consistency in other games and its heavier schedule outweighed the loss. This left the eighth and final United Press standings 1. Evansville’Reitz (won 9 lost! 0). 2. Whiting (9-0). 3. Gary Emerson (7-2). 4. South Bend Central (8-1). 5. East Chicago Roosevelt (won 6 lost 2 tied 1). 6. New Castle (8-0-1). 7. Lafayette Jefferson (7-2-1). 8. Gary Roosevelt (6-1). 9. Terre Haute Garfield (7-1). 10. Indianapolis Broad Ripple I (8-01 Well-regarded: Bloomington (7-1-1): Fort Wayne South (G-l-1), Evansville Memorial (5-1-2); Fort Wayne Central (6-1-1); Terre Haute Wiley (5-1-1); South Bend Riley.
