ennessee Ra ted ‘Tops’ Among
SPORTS... By Eddie Ash
GRIDIRONS OVER the land were infested with mines Saturday and your correspondent was blown off the course
in the pick ’em business and lost percentage ground to the
tune of eight points for the season. Record for the week consisted of 44 hits, 20 misses and five ties for a batting mark of .688. . . . For the Season this department’s record shows 324 games on the right side, 118 on the wrong side and 30 ties for an over-all
Percentage of .733. “There was a multitude of surprises. . . . For example, Iowa State lost seven straight games before picking out ‘Saturday to win one, and at the expense of tough Kansas State, 10-0. . That one set a new high for making the comparative-score system "look dizzy. .. . But more power to the underdogs who make the grid sport worth going miles to see. Iowa's Hawkeyes did it again and tripped Minnesota after trailing by nine points.’. . . If the Hawks make their last hurdle—Northwestern
~—Coach Eddie Anderson probably will be named Coach of the - Century. .
. He's already been named Coach of the Week and is in line for the crown of Coach of the Year.
Butler’s Sixth Consecutive Title
WHEN BALL STATE removed Manchester from the undefeated class Saturday Butler's Bulldogs became the owner of a double grid crown. . Manchester’s defeat automatically elevated Butler as the undisputed champion of the Indiana College Conference and also gave the Bulldogs the added distinction of being the State's Jone undefeated . This is Butler's sixth consecutive
loop crown. The only blemish on the Hinklemen’s record was a 6-6 tie with Washington of St. Louis. . . . The other seven games were stored away on the right side of the ledger. EJ = » ® s # THE Ball State-Manchester score was 20-14 and it was a sparkling contest, played at Muncie. . . . A 63-yard touchdown run by Jimmy Phend, Ball State’s ace, highlighted «he battle in which Manchester was a threat until the final gun. . . . The fans were treated to a barrel of thrills and saw the Teachers come from behind to eliminate the Spartans from a share of the State Conference title. . . . Incidentally, Ball State defeated Manchester by the same margin last year. Don Lieberum, Manchester's high-scoring halfback, tallied both of the Spartans’ touchdowns and boosted his season’s point total to 114. ‘Saturday’s victory placed the Cardinals second in the Conference standing with five games won and one lost. . Their lone setback was by Butler in the season’s opener for both, 16-0.
One Touchdown and DePauw Gets It
IT WAS a ding-dong struggle at Crawfordsville as Wabash and DePauw met in their traditional affair. . . . The favored Tigers won, 7-0, but were given all they could handle by the Little Giants. It was a typical game hetween the old rivals. . . . Last year’s "tile ended the same way, 7-0, DePauw. The contest was replete with fumbles but that only added to the excitement. . DePauw scored in the second Quarter when Lavidge passed 38 yards to J. Edwards for a touchdown. . . . Edgar booted the extra point. re s 8 8 ® 8 8 THE HOOSIER grid deck is now cleared for a couple of classics this week-end, Purdue at Indiana and Southern California at Notre Dame. . . . That is called choice football entertainment in any league and the fans will respond in a big way by filling both stadiums to capacity. Purdue’s Boilermakers had to step on it Saturday to gain a 7-7 tie with Wisconsin at Madison and Indiana had to do the same thing at East Lansing to deadlock Michigan State at 7-7. . Notre Dame and Northwestern played through a drizzle and the Irish won, 7-0, in the last quarter. / Milt Piepul plunged over for a touchdown and Lou Zontini added the extra point on a run around end after the pass from center went
astray. Notre Dame Ahead in Downs, 15 to 6
THE WILDCATS offered a stubborn 8efense and, other Irish scoring chances were checked. . Notre Dame made 15 first downs to six for Northwestern. . . , The ball was slippery and both teams found the passing game a tough mode of travel. Young DeCorrevont of the Wildcats got away for a 35-yard run in the second quarter and Northwestern supporters thought they had something. . . . Then Notre Dame braced and was equal to the occasion again in the fourth period when the Cats put on the pressure after Don Clawson got off to a 44-yard run. 2 ” # # » 8 CONTROL 2ITCHING saved Purdue. . . .

Caps Show The Way in Ice League
Locals Bump Cleveland, 3-0; Face New Haven Here © Thursday Night.
By TOM OCHILTREE Our doughty Indianapolis Capi-
class. : Before 7477 fans—all of whom were in good voice—the Capitals humbled the Cleveland Barons in the Coliseum here last night by a 3-to-0 score. This victory gave them the lead in the Western Division of the International-Amer-ican Hockey League. What is more important, it also seemed to prove the correctness of their basic style of play, which consists of keéping Hie other guys out-busied all eve8g Next start for the Capitals will be against New Haven here Thursday night, the nation’s first ThanksThe next week-end, the Caps are to play a home-and-home series with the. Pittsburgh Hornets, with the tilt at this end being scheduled for Sunday night.
Overtime Tie at Cleveland
The game last night had the proper dramatic setting. On Saturday night the same two clubs had waged a keenly contested battle at Cleveland which resulted in a 1-to-1 overtime tie. The right: of division leadership still was at stake then when the starters for both sides jumped over the dasher and out onto the ice here last night. Because they won the league championship last year, the Barons brought with them the reputation of being wild and wooly, but the Capitals tamed and sheared them. The Cleveland boys did leave, however, with some of their glamour intact. The Barons undoubtedly are the best drilled club to make an appearance here. But after the game they admitted that “it is hard to stop a team that plays five wings at a time.” :
Lewis’ Strategy Clicks
The reference was to Manager Herbie Lewis’ policy of encouraging the Capital defense players to take as much part in offensive drives as the members of the forward line. To make this strategy work, Lewis changes his defense men as often as he does his forwards, which is something of an innovation. Now that Don Deacon has been sent to Detroit to plug a gap in the Red Wings’ lineup, Lewis himself competed in both games of the Cleveland series. During the first 10 minutes of last night's game the two squads played on decidedly even terms. All three of the Indianapolis forward lines had trouble getting the puck across the blue line, while Lorne Wallace Duguid, Barons’ left wing, disturbed the peace of mind of Jimmy Franks, Capital goal tender, several times.
McDonald Finds Cage Then with 17 minutes and five
on assists from Connie Brown and Joe Fisher, drilled a
land’s goalie. Three Indianapolis players and one Cleveland skater spent two-minute sentences in the penalty box during this period. : With a wild, fast rush, Les Douglas, early in the second period, sent one in on an assist from Joe Carveth, but it turned out to be strictly for exhibition purposes. The. officials ruled that the Capitals were
counted. : Lewis was on the floor when Molyneaux tripped Bill Thomson and drew a two-minute penalty. Quickly he substituted five fresh players, removing himself and his companions from the ice. The boys
short-handed Cleveland team and their power play was climaxed when Alex Motter scored on an angle shot. McDonald and Thomson were credited with assists.
Lewis Barely Misses
The game was rounded out in the third period when Ron Hudson banged in a hard one with the help of Thomson and Lewis. Lewis himself came within an ace of getting a goal unassisted in this period after he had skated the length of the rink and worked through the Barons’ defense. His shot was high and to a corner, but Roberts managed to deflect it with his outstretched -hand. From every angle, the game was a customer pleaser, and it was good to see Lewis playing, because he’s that kind of a guy. : ranks oe. 3

By ELMER LAYDEN Note Dame Football Coach - SOUTH BEND, Ind, Nov. 20.— The reason for the poise that stamps the mature football player is found in tife simple adage that the man who can control himself can control others. It’s all very well for the sophisti. cate to depict the football player as a hulking, z bashful, ill- at east ‘wallflower, with no . more sense than to collect bumps and bruises for alma mater. But maybe the footballer likes his bumps and bruises and the chance to pit his strength and : cunning against Elmer Layden a foe who is rated
his equal or superior. At any rate, I am not imagining things when I say that: football does develop poise that is of use in later life, Poise is a matter of self control. And you must have self-control to play good football, just as you must have it to become a civic leader.
If you doubt me, come down onto
the fleld with me. Four minutes remain before the end of Notre Dame’s 1935 football season. You've

He found a hiding spot on the train and showed up ready to play at East Lansing, Still McMillin refused to allow him on the field and sent Tuffy Brooks to the fullback spot. In the third quarter Indiana, trailing 7-0, advanced to the Spartans’ 1-yard line. Brooks attempted a plunge. No gain, Here was

Rams Come to Packers’ Aid Knock Lions Out of Tie for First With Green Bay.
By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Nov. 20.—The National Football League today headed into the final two weeks of the regular championship season witli the Green Bay Packers leading the Western parade and the champion New York Giants and Washington Redskins remaining deadlocked for the Eastern lead. : The old story of an athlete rebuked hoisted Green Bay into the ‘Western Division lead yesterday. Earl (Dutch) Clark, one-time Detroit star and coach, revenged his
unhappy days with that club when
his Cleveland Rams knocked the Lions kicking, 14-3. That defeat dropped the Lions from a tie for the lead to third place and probably cost them a shot at the title. While the game was a personal triumph for Clark, it was a godsend to Green Bay, which conquered the Brooklyn Dodgers easily, 23-0, and grabbed the undis~
‘|puted Western lead.
‘The Eastern race remained status quo as the Giants easily conquered the Pittsburgh Pirate, 23-7, and the Redskins drubbed the Chicago Cardinals, 28-7. The Giants and Redskins are tied, each with seven victories, one defeat and one tie. In the day’s other game the Chicago Bears retained a slim chance at the Western title by triumphing quer the Philadelphia Eagles, 17-14.

Georgetown Still Unbeaten - Georgetown, playing a schedule

among the major teams, kept its undefeated record by running over New York University, 14 to 0. Du=quesne, also unbeaten, had an open date last Saturday. Nothing, it seems, is going to stop Tennessee, There are two games remaining on the Volunteers’ schedule, but they have an open date this

Cornell Faces Penn
Cornell, safely past . the -Dartmouth threat, goes against Pennsylvania this Saturday and should ndt have much trouble. Tulane has Sewanee and Louisiana State still in its path, but those two giant lines that the Green Wave boasts ought to be able to do those jobs. The biggest threat to any.of the six leaders is faced by Southern California, for this Saturday they roll into South Bend, Ind., to take or: Notre Dame in the football game of the week.
