By Eddie Aslht 13 Winners Forecast by Fan Experts m m a Perfect Picker Pete Nearly Corralled

'T'HE elusive football prognosticator, Perfect Picker Pete, evidently hpard about the hunting season opening up last week and refused to come out of his hole. He had a narrow escape, however, and was lucky to elude a few members of the posse of Times reader experts. They crept up within easy shootin’ distance of the grid fugitive and were in position to pepper him with their sixteen shooters if a couple of barrels had not gone haywire and kicked back. Three amateur game forecasters piled up thirteen winners in the group of sixteen games for Nov. 11 and one of the three plunged through the field with only one miss and two ties. The other two swept over the white lines with thirteen winners each, two misses and one tie. Are Hoosiers smart? Through the sycamores the candle lights sire gleaming, as The Times Hall of Experts and I Told You So, Inc., members pore over the dope and draw closer to scoring a grand slam. m a a a a a THE Stanford-Southern California Ramp last Saturday supplied the headache over all headaches in the ‘ pick 'em league" and each of the thrpe topnotchers in The Times list of gridiron sharpshooters muffed the upset turned in by Stanford. The Hanover-Waba.sh fracas was another tough one to crack, along with Columbia-Navy, Illinois-North-western, Indiana-Chicago and Michigan State-Carnegie Tech. The last two games mentioned went to no-decision, but here and there among The Times' readers the contests were picked that way. Setting the pace in last week's pursuit of Perfect Picker Pete were the following: B. E. Capehart, 602 South Locust street, Greencastle; thirteen winners. one miss and two ties. Stanford stopped him in the shadow of Perfect Picker Pete's rendezvous. Professor W. C. Middleton, De Pauw university, Greencastle; thirteen winners, two misses and one tie. Stanford and Columbia piled him up when he was on the point of mowing the grass with touchdowns. F. S. Sheppard, 2525 Sheppard street, Indianapolis; thirteen winners, two misses and one tie. Stanford and little Hanover tackled him when hw was chugging along toward the promised land and with the ball tucked firmly under his wing. Professor Middleton predicted the tie, 7 and 7, tactual score i, and F. S. Sheppard forecast Michigan State-Carnegie as •ven, 7 and 7. (Actual score, oto 0.) m m M 808 ELEVEN others also produced some “tall” experting by landing twelve winners out of last week's sixteen offered to city and state grid followers to make selections in advance of the clashes. Nobody will deny that the bunch of contests comprising the Nov. 11 “field” presented a difficult assignment to tackle. Several of the games were in the toss-up class and many football -writers of long experience in stirring the dope fell by the wayside. Times fan pickers in the tw'elve-winner class were! Knoll F. Kutchback, 2324 Ashland avenue? twelve winners, two misses and two ties. R. G. Burdsal, 948 North Illinois street; twelve winners, two misses and two ties. L. F, Verbarg, 1310 Linwood avenue; twelve winners, two misses and two ties. Thurman Allison. Ml South Vine street; twelve winners, two misses and two ties. John J. Wood, 521 Illinois building; twelve winners, two misses and two ties. George O. Heaton, 803 Union Title building, twelve winners, tw'o misses Bnd two ties. Claude C. Fort. Greenwood; twelve winners, two misses and two ties. Jack Warner, 1124 North Tacoma avenue; twelve winners, two misses and two ties. x . Paul Van Sickle, 32 Whittier place; twelve winners, two misses and two ties. Rodney and Kieth O'Connor, Kirklin, Ind.; twelve winners, three misses and one tie. bam b a a NO better evidence is required to prove that The Times’ “public defenders of Hoosier football knowledge” follow the ball than the fact that six sharks predicted the fall of the mighty Trojans of Southern California, a team that had not been licked for many moons. The upset was registered by Stanford, coached by Claude E. (Tiny) Thornhill, former Pittsburgh star. The score was 13 to 7. This was the game that ■ pset the majority of experts all over the country. The following Till. • I Told You So members put the bee on the Trojans by picking Stanford: Larry Heustis, 1828 College avenue. Score: 3 to 0. William J. Rickey. 1101 North Tacoma avenue. Score: 3 to 0. Philip C. Lewis. 1501 Kentucky avenue. Score: 6 to 3. George L. Brown. 559 South Woodrow avenue. Score: 7 to 0. Emil Butler. 262 Hendricks place. Score: 6 to 0. Raymond Franklin. Brownsburg. Score: 14 to 13. B B B B B B ANOTHER group of important games will be published tomorrow for . Times readers to forecast. The customary sixteen tilts will make up the selection list for games of Nov. 18. The fans hope that perhaps one week will go by without tie games cluttering the scores, and this may be the week. Watch for the new list of "headaches” tomorrow. For instance, there's that Michigan-Minnesota pain in the neck. And don't forget Notre Dame at Northwestern.

Wabash Fears This Tiger

gg|||||fc |pp&

DE PAUW’S football team has an enviable record for the season with six victories, no losses, no ties and not a single point scored against it. The Tigers will meet the final and supreme test of the current campaign Saturday at Wabash. In Alvin Volkman, a senior, the Tigers have a big and dependable end, one who snags the air tosses with uncanny ability and also puts up a strong defensive battle. If Wabash defeats the Tigers, the state secondary college race will be scrambled, otherwise De Pauw eleven will have a strong claim.

Linton, Clinton Lay Claim to State Prep Grid Title

BY DICK MILLER Linton high school football team today launched a claim for both the Wabash valley and state prep grid championships, based upon its record of nine victories over teams in southwestern Indiana this fall. Although there are indications that Linton must share honors with undefeated Clinton, there is little likelihood of the two getting together in Terre Haute on Nov. 24 for a playoff, as Clinton desires. Coach Gerald Landis today declared his team through for the season and said no post season games would be considered. Some comparison will be offered between the teams this week, however, when Clinton tackles Bicknell, a team that Linton was able to defeat only 6-0. Ft. Wayne Is Out Linton swept Sullivan aside last week. 27-0, and Clinton took Cathedral of Indianapolis into camp, 19-0, to continue undefeated. Murray Mendenhall's Central team in Ft. Wayne, ready to claim the state championship as well as the city and northeastern Indiana title, were defeated by their city rival, South Side, 28-0. Reitz of Evansville, another of the undefeated teams, received a scare from Central, a city rival who nearly marred their record of eight games won and none lost. Reitz’s big line aided them materially in piling up a first half lead of 7-0, but Central passed to a touchdown and tied the count 7-7 in the third period. A blocked punt gave Elmer Webber's boys a break late in the game and they smashed a short distance to goal and a 14-7 victory.

Senators Missed Clever Bunter in Crucial World Series Games

BY JOE WILLIAMS Times Social Sports Writer NEW YORK. Nov. 14 —The current batting averages show that young Clif Bolton wa-s the best pinch-hitter in the American League last season. Which is to say that with runners on base, and a hit needed, he excelled as an emergency hitter, although coming into the game cold. This is the young man Mr. Joe Cronin called on to hit for the pitcher with the bases full and only one out in the eleventh inning of the fourth world series game. The Giants were leading 2 to 1. Any kind of hit would have won for the Washingtons. The Giants went into one of their familiar infield huddles, the outcome of which was that they decided to play deep for a possible double pla;;- The cocky Ryan said: “If he hitsone to me, it's all over.”

the right to play the west division wnner for the all-conference title. Coach Elmer Burnham fears the Blue Blazers, since it was Elkhart who spoiled the Bears’ title march last year, and Chelsea Boone, the veteran Elkhart coach, has his eleven pointed to this game. Last week Central defeated Goshen, 26-6. South Bend May Tie There is a chance that South Bend Central will wind up in a tie for the eastern division crown. That chance lies in the ability of Elkhart to defeat the Bears, and Mishawaka to defeat Riley of South Bend. In that event Central and Mishawaka will toss a coin for the east division title. In the western division of the league. Whiting and Rcosevelt of East Chicago are still deadlocked for the lead. The game Saturday night between Whiting and Roosevelt, that presented either team a chance for undisputed leadership, resulted in a 6-6 tie, the second of the season for both teams. Whiting Seeks Title Ray Gallivan, Whiting coach, expects to capture the title this week with a victory over Froebel of Gary, hoping, of course, that J. C. Austin’s Roosevelt team will crack up in front of Frank Cash's Washington team as they battle for the East Chicago city title. The outcome appears to be a tossup. If Whiting and Roosevelt both win they will still be tied. If Whitifig and Washington win. then Whiting takes the title, and if Froebel and Washington win, then all three, Whiting, Roosevelt and Washington, will be tied with a toss of the coin deciding the western division winner.

De Pauw Hopes for Hoosier Grid Title Rise This Week

By Times Special GREENCASTLE. Ind., Nov. 14. Hopes of De Pauw's gridmen and of the De Pauw student body for an Indiana secondary college football title soared today, and perched on this week-end’s tilt with Wabash, at Crawfordsville. Coach Gaumy Neal yesterday brought out his charges for signal drill, and then assembled them for a blackboard session in which he outlined errors in their play against Evansville last Saturday. The Tigers came out of the Evansville game with but one serious injury. Bob Fribley, full back, suffered a knee hurt that may retire him to the bench when the De Pauw team clashes with the Cavemen. Neal said he would try to fit Pierce, Elson, or Bollinger into Frib-

i That's precisely where Bolton hit one and it was all over. The press box Napoleons condemned Cronin's strategy. They said he should have used a more experienced hitter in this tight spot —a man like Sam Rice. But it now appears that Cronin was playing the percentage. He was using the best pinch-hitter in the league. He would have been stupid to use anybody else. a a a OOLTON'S failure to come " through in the pinch— and it was excusable considering that he was facing the best pitcher in baseball. Hubbell—was only one of the minor Washington setbacks. Not I failure to hit. but failure to bunt, was what beat the American Leaguers. If Cronin had had a 1 burner, he wouldn't have had to j bank so heavily on a pinch-hitter. It is possible in breaking down I the twists and turns of the series

Michigan Is Pass Leary Minnesota May Take to Air Against Big Ten Leaders. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Nov. 14. —Four teams have failed in their efforts to halt Michigan's advance to the Big Ten football championship, but the last two opponents have uncovered the Wolverines’ weakness—it is pass defense. Illinois passed Michigan dizzy, completing seven out of thirteen passes, and losing by a bare point, 7 to 6. lowa completed five out of sixteen passes, and lost 10 to 6. Gopheers Have Chance Thus Minnesota, a team which has completed twenty-three out of its fifty-five passes attempted in six games, must be accorded a chance to upset Michigan in the Big Ten’s most important game, at Ann Arbor Saturday. Bernie Bierman, Minnesota coach, regards Michigan as a superior team to Minnesota, but Bierman's statement may be slightly discounted because of the fact that he remembers that too many Minnesota teams have come down to the Michigan game expecting victory and come off the field beaten. Michigan has had three touchdowns scored on it this season. Michigan State scored the first on a pass good for thirty-five yards. Illinois scored the second after passes had placed the ball in scoring position. lowa scored the third last week on passes. Line Defense Good In Michigan’s four Conference games the Wolverines have had seventeen out of forty-seven attempted passes completed on them for a total of 268 yards. Just how staunch the Michigan defense is may be gleaned from the lowaMichigan game. The Hawkeyes, with a strong running attack, owed a net loss of one yard on running plays against Michigan, gaining fifty-nine yards and losing sixty. The Hawkeyes connected with five passes for gains totaling 113 yards, and were decidedly in the ball game, with a chance to win until the last whistle. The pass statistics of all Michi- : gan’s opponents follow: At- Com- Yards Team tempted, pleted. gained. !

Rush on for Wabash Seats By Time* Special CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 14.—Only a few reserved seats will be available for the De Pauw-Wa-bash gridiron battle here Saturday, one of the oldest football rivalries in the nation. Lon Goldsberry, assistant Wabash coach, is in charge of the reserved ducats, which will be for seats along the sidelines, and he reports mail orders are diminishing the supply. Requests for the select seats will be acknowledged promptly, Goldsberry said today. The game, which annually produces one of the outstanding secondary grid battles of the season, also will produce revenue for the Crawfordsville community fund. One of the largest crowds ever to take in the fray is anticipated this year inasmuch as the game will be played a week ahead of the Indi-ana-Purdue game which usually falls on the same date.

Thus far in the season, and with the Wabash game the only remaining barrier on their grid card, the Tigers are not only undefeated, but no team has scored on them. By Times Sperial CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind.. Nov. 14.—With several members on the injury list after the Hanover game last Saturday, Wabash college’s football squad opened practice yesterday for the De Pauw tilt here Saturday. Coach Pete Vaughan let the boys off easily with light drill and a skull session that showed them the vital mistakes that gave Hanover a victory over the Cavemen.

in retrospect to discover that the main difference between the Washingtons and the Giants hinged on such a comparatively simple thing as the ability to lay down a sacrifice bunt. This the Giants could do, Washington couldn't. Even conceding the magnificent pitching of Hubbell in the first game, a strategically placed bunt might have won for Washington. And the set-up was such in the second game that a bunt might also have turned that one into an American League victory. At least in both instances the chance existed. But there was absolutely no question as to what effect a bunt at the desired moment would have had on both the fourth and fifth games. These two games were lost by Washington simply because the men who were called on to bunt were unequal to the challenge. a a a NOT many managers bother about developing bunting

Army Greased Legs for Harvard Game —Tsk! Tsk!

BY HENRY M’I.EMORE Vnited Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—Perhaps it’s none of my business, but I believe : That Army’s stunt of slicking its halfback's legs with bear grease in the Harvard game was inexcusable, and smacked of prizefight tactics. The incident was made all the more regrettable by the Cadets being the stronger club, and knowing it. That Max Baer, judging by his work in his first movie, can make a lot more money in Hollywood than in the ring. And that anybody who wouldn't rather clinch with Myrna Loy than Primo Camera even if the pay was less, is missing on all six. That Princeton's sophomore back field is grossly overrated and that the Tigers’ success is founded on a tough, fast line with tackle Ceppi as the spearhead.

technique, even as applied to pitchers, notoriously weak hitters as a group. It used to be that a pitcher was supposed to be able to bunt if nothing else, and with this in mind they were constantly forced to practice laying down the ball. But apparently even the pitchers are now immune. The bunt went out of baseball with the arrival of the lively ball. The players got into the habit of swinging from the hip. The percentage lay with the full swing during the jackrabbit era. A few- years ago the ball was deadened to some degree but the players accustomed to swinging could not get used to bunting. Os course there are still some fine bunters in the game, and strangely, most of the fine bunters are also great hitters. Ruth, the mightiest hitter of them all, can lay down a bunt with the delicacy and finesse of a billiardist. It is all a .part of

Notre Dame Takes Day of Rest and Studies Saturday Errors

By Times Special NOTRE DAME, Ind., Nov. 14. Notre Dame’s moleskin-garbed fumble specialists took a rest yesterday to think over as many of the errors they could remember that contributed to a 19-0 trimming by Purdue last Saturday. While Coach Hunk Anderson suspended practice he studied scout reports on Northwestern, wondering whether there was a chance for the Irish to salvage the most disastrous season in Notre Dame's gridiron history with one major victory next week-end. The student body will make the Northwestern game its official migratory episode on the 1933 schedule, and the band, departing from the familiar cadet blue to don new navy blue raiment, will put on Hoosiers Drill for Last Games By Times Special BLOOMINGTON. Ind,, Nov. 14. Coach E. C. Hayes called his Indiana football men yesterday for practice for the final games on the Hoosier schedule, a tilt against St. Xavier in Cincinnati next week-end, and the annual Purdue game here Nov. 25. Xavier probably will be played in regular Crimson stride while Coach Hayes points his squad for the Purdue game. Offensive plays and signal drill made up yesterday’s drill.

his well-rounded batting technic. There is no phase of batting of which he is not the master. That's why he is what he is. Asa matter of fact, all the really great hitters have been skillful bunters. Possibly Ty Cobb was the greatest burner of all time. Certainly no player ever executed the running bunt—that is hitting the ball while starting for first on the run—with greater effect. Even the slashing Wagner was a Grade-A burner. In pointing out that bunting cost Washington two games for a certainty, and possibly more, I make no attempt to take anything away from Mr. Will Terry and his Giants. On the contrary, the situation reflects greater glory on the Giants’ manager and the success of his team in the World series. Lacking powerful hitters, Mr. Terry turned to the bunt and developed it as an important offensive weapon.

With the 19-0 rout of the Irish last Saturday Purdue piled still higher one of the most imposing gridiron records in the nation to- : day. Stears Scouts Hawks In forty-six consecutive games the Boilermakers have scored at least one touchdown; they have played twenty in a row without defeat; and in twenty-three out of the last forty-six games Purdue has blanked the opposing squad. Scouting report of Assistant Coach George St ears to Coach Noble Ki;er gave the Purdue mentor plenty of worries to transmit to his boys during this week's scrimmages. Stears said the Hawks’ forward wall is one of the toughest in the Conference, and in the entire country. Their offense, which has provided at least one score in each contest on their schedule thus far, is fast and deceptive, Stears said. Purvis Back in Bed The hospital problem is bothering Kizer less this week than last, he admitted although last week's wailing proved to be chiefly ballyhoo obviously intended to interfere more with Notre Dame's plans than with Purdue's. Duane Purvis, who at the last minute went to a hospital for a knee infection, slipped out of the infirmary sheets and into moleskins for a part in the Irish game. Saturday night he went back to the hospital for a rest. By Timra Sprrinl lOWA CITY, Nov. 14.—Dick Crayne, lowa's flashy sophomore full back, may not be able to face Purdue because of an injury suffered Saturday in the Michigan game. Coach Ossie Solem learned today. Crayne is being treated for a charley-horse, and will not be allowed to practice this week.
