ILLINOIS FACES BOILERMAKERS IN BIG TEN FEATURE

Purdue to Dedicate New Fieldhouse and Gymnasium Saturday

I. U. Netters Meet Gophers In Minneapolis

Northwestern and lowa, Both Undefeated, ‘Also to Clash Tonight.

By STEVE SNIDER United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Jan. 10.—Purdue's racing Boilermakers, No. 1 choice for the Big Ten basketball championship, face their old jinx and severest foe of the season at Illinois tonight in the headliner on the second five-game schedule of the 1938 Conference campaign, One of Ten teams in many seasons, Purdue heads into its first early season test with a perfect non-Conference record and a breezing victory over Chicago. Illinois, defeated first by Indiana, then Michigan, is a disappointed team with virtually all hope of retaining its share of the Conference title lost right at the start. But the Illini, still a strong team, traditionally are tough on Purdue at Champaign. Northwestern plays at Iowa, Indiana plays at Minnesota, Chicago invades Wisconsin, and Ohio State battles Michigan at Ann Arbor. At least one undefeated team— Northwestern or Iowa—must drop out of the league leadership. Technically, Northwestern stands alone at the top of the standings, with victories over Wisconsin and

Ohio State in a Saturday night thriller, 35 to 34, when center Jake Nagode finally hit his scoring stride and dropped in six field goals.

Towa Pulls Surprise

But Iowa apparently has found itself. The Hawkeves bumped off Indiana Saturday, 48 to 39, chiefly on the strength of a surprising performance by little forward who popped in 10 field goals and three free throws at the expense of Indiana's baffled defense, On the face of its first conference game, Michigan remained high among the title favorites. to-37 victorv over Illinois was achieved chiefly through the expertness of Johnny Townsend, unani-

mous all-Conference choice for two |

vears, but he received enough sup-

port from Bill Barclay and sopho- |

more Jim Rae to make the Wolves feared as a team.

Illinois trailed all the way except |

for one flurry in the second period in which they pulled up to a tie at 27. Young Scoring Star Wisconsin pulled a mild upset by defeating Minnesota, 35 to 28. and has an excellent chance of fattening up its percentage against Chi-

cago tonight. The Badgers clamped |

a rigid defense on Minnesota, tually shutting out Johnny Kundla and Gordon Addington, scoring stars in Minnesota’ 1937 drive to the championship. Although Iowa's Benny Stephens turned in the most spectacular oneman show of opening night, Jewell Young of Purdue still is the brightest scoring star in the conference. He dropped in 16 points against Chicago and did it so easily every fan in the gvmnasium felt he could go on ringing up field goals at will against Chicago's wide open defense. The standings: Pet. Pts. OP 1.000 82 7 1.000 45 1.000 48 1.000 50 S00 13 500 90 000 28 000 34 000 34 600 83
