Notre Dame is one of the nation’s eleven majA teams which haven’t been beaten or tied. Michigan was held to a scoreless tie by Michigan state, but has won all other games. ; Illinois has lost its last three games to Northwestern, Michigan and Purdue. Ohio State has lost to Northwestern and Michigan and played a scoreless tie with Wisconsin. Three Are Favorites The games involving this quartet of invaders follow: Notre Dame vs. Pennsylvania at Philadelphia. Michigan vs. Harvard at Cambridge. Illinois vs. Army at New York. Ohio State vs. Navy at Baltimore. Three of the west’s representatives are conceded good chances to win. Illinois, with the worst team Bob Zuppkc has developed since 1922, decidedly is an underdog against Army, but the suspicion prevails that this is the game Zuppke has pointed his green but willing youngsters for since early in the fall. Notre Dame, with its collection of saper backs, Carideo, Savoldi, £ chwartz, Brill and Mullins, isn’t hkely to.be stopped by a Penn team Which lost to Wisconsin, 27-0. Michigan is taking no great teat* to play Harvard, but the Wolverines have one of the really outstanding players of this region in Harry Newman, smart sophomore quarter back who is a dead ringer for his predecessor, Benny Friedman, insofar as playing ability is concerned. Michigan Dangerous Newman’s brilliant generalship, accurate passing and sure placekicking have converted a strong defensive team into a smart, dangerous combination. Ohio State has one of the best running attacks in the Big Ten and the Buckeyes have outgained every team they have played this season. With Wesley Fessler calling signals last week, the Buckeyes showed considerable improvement Lewis Hinchman, star sophomore back, is one of the best runners in the Big Ten.
000 suit filed by Timothy J. Mara, sports promoter, who claims he is entitled by contract to 25 per cent of Gene's earnings as champion, close to $2,000,000. Under questioning of counsel he told how he left school at 16 to become a clerk; how he enlisted with the marines; how he became champion of the American Expeditionary Force in France, and how he turned to professional fights in this country after the war. “I fought sixty-five bouts after the war and was defeated once," he said. His only defeat was by Harry Greb, whom he defeated four times afterward He told of the time, after he had established an impresssive record, when he met the late Tex Rickard, showman of sports. Gene Tunney quoted Rickard as saying: “I can make you champion of the world if you will string along with me." ‘‘Do you mean I'll fight Dempsey?’’ Tunnel replied. ‘‘Yes.”' “All right, you've got me,” Gene said he replied. Tunney’s recollection of that conversatioh caused distress to Mara’s counsel, but it was permitted to stand as showing the fighter’s position at the time Mara claims he signed away a quarter interest in his earnings for a bout with Dempsey in New York. Mrs. Rose L. Salzberg. a stenographer, now residing in Los Angeles, preceded Tunney. She told of drawing up a contract between Billy Gibson. Tunney’s manager, and Mara, but said Gene never signed the paper.

Cruising in Sportland
DAZZY VANCE is a business man holdout this winter, something on the order of George von Elm, the business man golfer. The Brooklyn mound veteran has decided that if he helps make baseball statistics it’s just as well said statistics pay him some dividends, if any. A few days ago Dazzy’s boss wanted him to sign for 1931, but the right-hander objected and supplied the reason. It seems Vance desires to give the statistics a chance to tell their story, for he has a hunch the earned-runs-against averages will make him a more valuable asset to the Robins. In other words Dazzy figures he’ll have another sales talk to demand a better contract. The veteran no doubt kept close account of error? behind him during the last campaign that helped enemy runners around the sacks. nun tt tt a Vance has piled up 269 victories during his National League career, winning 164 games and losing 105. He has the upper hand over six rival clubs, the Cards being the lone team holding the advantage. Against that nine he won 18 games and lost 22. Against other clubs: Phillies, won 15, lost 14;'Braves, won 27, lost 9; Pirates, won 25, lost 10; Cubs, won 29, lost 14; Giants, won 26, lost 17; Reds, won 24, lost 19.
a tt tt JOE SAVOLDI. devastating full back with Notre Dame, played about three minutes varsity football in 1928 and as a result will not be available to the Irish warriors in 1931. The three minutes of 1928 constitute a full year under the collegiate eligibility rules. A tough break for Jumpin’ Joe and Knute Rockne, for the three minutes in 1928 were unimportant, for Notre Dame lost that game anyway. it tt a University of Arkansas has a guard weighing 340 pounds. No doubt he is excused from the huddles and shifts. Boys that size are of little value on the campus any more except for the tug of war. tt tt tt WES SCHULMERICH. Los Angeles outfielder, purchased by the Boston Braves, is reported as signing a contract as a professional wrestler. Boston goes daffy over the mat sport, but it’s a good guess Judge Landis will slip a word of warning to Schulmerich if the rookie mingles with the grunters in a big way. tt a tt Bat Battalino is down in the books as world’s featherweight champion, but few fistic followers recognize his right to the crown. He’s more synthetic than real. “Fiddle” La Barba surely will remove ail doubts about the title if he can get Battalino in the ring at championship weight. a a a CHUCK KLEIN, slugging fly chaser with the Philly Nationals, didn’t remain unemployed long after returning to his Indianapolis home from Cuba, where he played with other big league stars after the baseball season closed in the states. Chuck is spending the offseason as an assistant manager at the Pritchett Recreation bowling alleys on Maryland street. The big fellow is a ten pin enthusiast and gradually is developing into a crack demolisher of the maples. TECH CHANGES ATTACK Tech gridmen will employ anew system of attack when they oppose Logansport at the east side field Friday. Coach Mueller sent his squad through a lengthy scrimmage and passing and punting drill Wednesday.

With Edmonds and Hughes, full backs and regular punters, both on the sidelines with injuries, the Indiana mentor nss been drilling Ross and Zeller, the latter a guard, lor the assignment. There is a bare chance, however, that Hughes may be in shape for the Purple tilt. In case neither Edmonds nor Hughes are ready to start against the Wildcats, Page will start a back field averaging less than 160 pounds against the heavy Evanston team. Brubaker will be at quarter, with Ross and Ashby or Saluski at halves and Opasik or Saluski at full. Preparations for the home-com-ing activities have been completed and a large crowd is expected. STAR CATS BRUISED EVANSTON, 111., Nov. 6.—Frank Baker, star end, and Lee Hanley, quarter back, still are carrying bruises from the Minnesota game and may not be used in Northwestern’s game with Indiana Saturday. In Wednesday’s drill, Coach Hanley used Hall at Baker’s end, with Moore, Bruder, Russell and Leach in the back field. Rentner, regular full back, also is out with injuries.
When a single individual back sets a ground gaining mark of 4.8 yards per crack in conference competition, the ballyhoo is generally heard from one end of the country to the other, and Purdue’s record is remarkable when it is pointed out that eight different back field men have contributed their share. The unusual Boilermaker mark has been made possible by Coach Noble Kizer’s policy this season of using two complete ball-carrying trios, both working with Jack White as the directing genius at quarter back. One ball-carrying three-some has the veteran Alex Yunevich at full back, flanked by Lewis Pope and James Purvis, while
