EVANSTON, Ill, Oct. 25.—Northwestern’s football teem will defend its position among the nation’s unbeaten leaders tomorrow afternoon in Dyche Stadium against Indiana University in a Western Conference gridiron rivalry being renewed after a seven-year lapse. A crowd of 35,000 is expected to see the Wildcats in their second home contest of the 1940 season. Indiana has played three games thus far this year. It has lost two of these games; won the other by a four-point margin. On its face value, the Hoosier squad has an unimpressive record. And yet, Wildcat coaches are greatly concerned over this game, because they realize the won-and-lost aspects of the Indiana record are misleading and not truly reflective of this team’s ability. Indiana yielded by one touchdown to both Texas and Nebraska, at the moment, unbeaten in four games and a ranking power in its own strong conference—the Southwest. Nebraska lost itse opener by six (Centinued on Page 32) 3

Lesson Two
DETROIT, Oct. 25 (U. P.).—The Detroit Red Wings defeated the Capitals, their Indianapolis farm club, 6-4, last night in the second game of the city series. The Wings, with outstanding work by Syd Howe and Alex Motter, took a 2-0 lead in the first period b@t lost the margin in the second when Carl Liscombe, Art Herchenratter and Jack Keating scored for the Capitals. The final period was ragged, rough hockey with the Wings frequently taking the puck away from the Indianapolis defense to score. Howe tied up_the game with a rebound shot and Don Grosso put Detroit out ahead. Meanwhile, Manager “Herbie Lewis Tot the: Caps announced the sale of Bob Gracie and Scotty Bowman to the Buffalo club of the American League. Bowman, a defense man, was out of action most of last season because of a leg injury, while Gracie came to the Caps in midseason in a deal with Cleveland. Summary:
