$¢

NEW YORK, Oct. 11 (U, P).—| Major undefeated and untied foot- | ball teams numbered but 22 today | as the season moved toward third big week-end. At the rate gridiron powers have been bumped off since the campaign | opened, it seemed probable that no more than one or two—if that many—would finish the season w ith) perfect records. At least six—five in the East and | one in the Southwest—will have | their perfect records spoiled this | week-end because six games bring together 12 of the 22 teams. The heaviest firing this Saturday | will center in the East, which has a program topped by these five: Army-Yale, Pittsburgh - Fordham, ! Navy-Harvard, Holy Cross-Georgia and Detroit-Catholic U. The other “perfect record” game will be Cen-tenary-Baylor at Shrevepor., La. With but four exceptions the] other 10 elevens should keep their records clean. The exceptions are: Alabama, which meets Tennessee; Georgia Tech which opposes Duke; | Louisiana State which plays Mississippi and Vanderbilt which battles Southern Methodist.

Cornell Plays Syracuse

The other games involving per- | fect record elevens—with the No. 1 teams listed first—are: Cornell- | Syracuse; Dartmouth-Brown; Ne- | braska - Oklahoma; Northwestern- | Purdue; California-California Ag-| gies, and College of Pacific (doubleheader) and Santa Clara-Portland | on Sunday. | The program by sections: | East—Fordham-Pitt shapes up as division's top game. They've played scoreless ties the last two years. Other major games, excluding the perfect record meetings are: Dart-mouth-Brown, Notre Dame-Carneg-ie; Tulane - Colgate; ColumbiaPennsyivania; Manhattan-Villanova and Penn State-Lehigh. Midwest—Conference warfare in Big Ten features. Four teams are tied for the lead—Minnesota, Northwestern, Wisconsin and Ohio State. Conference games pair: Illinois-In-diana; Towa-Wisconsin; MinnesotaMichigan and Purdue-Northwest-ern. Outside the conference, Chicago entertains Princeton. |

Nebraska vs. Missouri

In the Bix Six, which Nebraska | and Missouri lead with a victory each, Nebraska plays Missouri and Kansas plays Towa State. South—Conference warfare features the program in Dixie also. In | the Southern Conference six games are scheduled with V. M. I. in a spot to grab the lead from Duke which plays outside. Duke and V. M. I. are tied for the top with two victories each. V. M. I. plays Rich- | mond. Other conference games | pair: Citadel-Furman; DavidsonSouth Carolina; Maryland-Virginia; North Carolina-Wake Forest and North Carolina State-V. P. I. In the Southeastern Conference, where Georgia Tech, Alabama, Van- | derbilt and Louisiana State are tied | for the lead with a victory each there are four important clashes: Alabama-Tennessee; Auburn-Missis-sippi State; Florida-Sewanee and L. S. U.-Mississippi. A major game outside the conference brings together Duke and Georgia Teeh.

Southwest Games

Southwest—only two conference | games scheduled—Texas A. & M.Texas Christian and ArkansasTéxas. Baylor leads with one victory. Three other conference teams meet intersectionai opponents, name- | ly—Texas-Vanderbilt, Baylor-Cen- | tenary and Rice-Tulsa. | Rocky Mountain—Four conference | games scheduled—Denver U.-Colo- | rado College, Colorado U.-Brigham Young; Colorado State- Wyoming and Greeley-Utah. Utah U. Denver and Western - State lead with two victories each, Pacific Coast-—The program eases | this week after last weeks major up- | set which saw Washington, champion last vear, defeated by Oregon. | There are three Conference games but none can affect the lead which is held by California with two viectories and no defeats. Those games are: Washington-Washington State; | Oregon-U. S. C. and U. C. L. A--Oregon State. Outside the confer- | ence California plays a double-head- | er and Santa Clara meets Portland | on Sunday.

Hoosiers Aroused,

Prepare for Illini

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Oct. 11] (U. P).—In much the same angry | mood that Minnesota's Gophers were after their stunning upset at | the hands of an able Nebraska | teain, Indiana University's football team went to work today to prepare | for the invasion of Bob Zuppke's Illini Saturday. The Hoosiers returned from Minneapolis Sunday, where they held | the ‘Golden Gophers to a lone touchdown after all the experts had | picked Bevnie Biermian's powerhouse to crush Indiana in retaliation for | their smarting defeat by the Corn- | hpskers.

A rousing reception was given

Coach Bo McMillin and the I. U. J

squad by 2000 fans gathered at the | station. | “We are not satisfied with our | showing against Minnesota,” MeMillin said. “We went over there to win and we didn't do the job. | We hope yet to give you a season | that you'll be proud of.” i Bill Anderson returned nome with 2 shoulder injury and it is doubtful if he will sea much aclicn in the | Illincis game. Davis, Clasen and | Tenner, backs, and Suatoskv and! Birr, lineman, suffered minor injuries,

Of Three Starts This Season.

| | | | | | | | |

Out in peaceful Broad Ripple, where White River provides a major part of the excitement, Broad Ripple’s football team was doing a bit of practicing. { The reporter and the photographer and Coach Ed Diederich and a slim young fellow whose official capacity remained obscure discussed the 1937 Rockets botir pro and con, and came to the conclusion that whatever Broad Ripple does this year will be definitely on the credit side. Coach Diederich told the reporter about them, punctuating his re=marks with directions to the varsity and the second string who were | scrimmaging. “They've done surprisingly all things considered,” he said. “Only two lettermen, this year, but they've

already beaten Plainfield and Seymour,’

“Nobody's outstanding,” he replied to a question. “They all do their share. Wally Scott—Berger, cut to the left on that play, not to the right—Wally Scott ‘has scored six

He has had three years var- | sity experience, “The freshmen were pretty small, this year,” Coach Diederich said “and I don’t know if they'll ever amount to much.” Freshmen are allowed to play varsity ball at Broad Ripple “if they're good enough, but this year none of them were good enough.” Until Friday, when: the Rockets dropped a 14-13 heartbreaker to Sheridan's fighting team, they were undefeated this season.

Short on Weight

Even enthusiasts among Broad Ripple supporters scarcely believe that the nickname should be changed from Rockets to Giants this year. A look at the weights makes it easy to see why. Al Todd, varsity right end and a tips the beam at 127.

The Rockets have had football since 1925, Coach Diederich said, with a two-year lapse in '28 and '29, and he has directed their fortunes throughout that time.

passing attack to crush the Grizzlies, 41 te 6. Coach Raymond R. (Gaumy) Neal's eleven will attempt to topple Ball State from its position this week in one of the feature engagements of a seven-game involving Conference teams. It will be home-coming day for DePauw. Other contests include Evansville at Butler, Oakland City at Central Normal, Indiana State at Franklin, Valparaiso at Manchester, St. Joseph’s at Rose Poly and Wabash at Earlham. Butler aided DePauw in achieving its position at the head of the conference standings by swamping Valparaiso, 33 to 0, last Saturday and removing the Uhlans from the ranks of the undefeated elevens. Score in Every Period The 1936 conference champions found little difficulty in solving the Uhlans’ defense, scoring in every quarter and bracing on the two occasions that Valparaiso drew within scoring distance. Ball State won its second league game by a top-heavy score, overpowering Central Normal at Muncie, 26 to 0. The victory, first ever registered by Ball State on its homecoming day, saw the Cardinals score three touchdowns in the third period and add another in the final quarter. Hanover kept its record intact by defeating Indiana State, 13 to 6. The Sycamores scored their lone touchdown midway in the first quarter. Hanover tied the count in the second period and the two elevens fought on even terms until! the final quarter when Hanover pushed over another touchdown. Gain First Victory Wabash gained its first conference victory at Crawfordsville ring(ing up three touchdowns against { Evansville. After a scoreless first | quarter, The Little Giants scored twice in the third period and again in the fourth for a 20-to-0 win. Two of the Conference members went against out-state opponents. Earlham maintained prestige of the league by edging Bluffton (O.), 2 to 0. Early in the opening quarter, Earlham smashed a Bluffton running play and downed the ball-car-rier behind his own goal line for a safety. Oakland city dropped its third game in as many starts, losing 39 to 0 to Eastern Illinois Teachers College from Charleston, Im.
