Es THE Hoosier Big Three barely escaped a sweep in erse Saturday only by Notre Dame’s achievement ‘coming from behind at Illinois. . . . Indiana and Purdue bowed to Western conference opponents, the former to Iowa, the latter to Wisconsin. . . . And it was

home-coming at both Bloomington and West Lafayette. The home-comers were on hand and the turnout of old grads In wartime was splendid, but Bo McMillin’s Hoosiers and Elmer Burnham’s Boilermakers we unable to come through to climax the occasion in the right way. ... The Hoosiers had the better Chance to deliver but muffed a couple of golden opportunities. « » . Purdue was outmatched in speed and power and the Badgers’ line was far superior to the Boilermakers’ forward wall. Purdue has only won one game in five starts, defeating Northwestern and losing to For , Vanderbilt, Ohio State and Wisconsi, . , , Indiana has won three and lost two. . . . The Hoosiers’ triumphs were over Butler, Nebraska and Piltshureh, the setbacks by Ohio State and Iowa. ¥ . Notre Dame now has w Seahawks and Illinois. . and held even by Wisconsin

That is a no mean record in this scrambled, screwy football season.

Irish Forced to Coping Behind Notre Dame's play against the spirited, hard-fighting Illini at Champaign and the Irish had to come from behind twice to prevail 3-14, over Ray Eliot’s courageous squad. In the fourth quarter, . Dame gambled on one play instead of playing it safe, and this wis the break in the $ gums. , . The Irish had moved the ball from their 23 to Illinois’ 40. ... It was fourth down and five yards to go. . . Ordinarily, this situation calls for a punt. . . . But it would have meant yielding the ball. . . and you can't. score when the other fellow has the pigskin. ‘ The: Irish decided to gamble on a short forward pass... it elicked for first down and from there Notre Dame continued its ‘march to its third and decisive touchdown. 8 =» = ; 8 = 8 BOTH LINES were raged and fierce action occurred “up fronf as the Irish and Illini forwards waged a stirring struggle. . . . But Notre Dame had the better reserve strength in this Sparimint and constant pressure finally ford the gallant Illini to give. Illinois had an edge in the first half, the Irish were superior in the last two periods. . .. Notre Dame’s Angelo Bertelli threw 18 forward passes and had nine completions. . Touchdowns were scored by Corwin Clatt, Bertelli and Jerry . Cowhig for Notre Dame, and by Anthony Butkovich and Ray’ Grierson for Illinois. . . . Bertelli kicked three points after touchdown ‘and Jim McCarthy booted two for Illinois. 4

Tom Farmer Edges Billy Hillenbrand

THIS DEPARTMENT picked Indiana to beat Iowa “by a whisker.” , . . We plucked the wrong whisker. . . . The Hawks won, 14-13. , . . The Hoosiers got off to a seven-point lead in the first period, Iowa tied it up in the second, pushed out in frént, 14-7, in the third, and Indiana scored again in the fourth but Billy Hillenbrand missed the kick for point, and that was the ball game, ‘ It: was a typical Iowa-Indiana game, close, torrid and thrillpacked. . . . As many football observers had predicted, it was a match between Tom Farmer, Hawkeye ace, and Hillenbrand. In the first period Indiana scored on a 24-yard pass, Hillenbrand to Bob Cowan, and Hillenbrand kicked the extra point. . In the second period Farmer helped set up the first Towa score

and handed the leather to [Charles Uknes, for the touchdown.

s+ . Farmer added the extra point. ; : 2 8 = 2 8 = AGAIN IN the third period Farmer threw a fancy, accurate _ pass to Jim Keane good for 25 yards and a touchdown. ,.. Then Farmer added the extra point and it turned out to be-the “winning run.” . . . In the fourth quarter Hillenbrand was both hero and goat. ; He scored a touchdown from the 11-yard line on a sweep to ~ his right. . . . But his kick for point was wide and this bad break . beat the Hoosiers. . . . He also fumbled at a critical moment later in the period when Indiana was on the march ... was recovered by Farmer.

Indiana missed a second touchdown in the first period when

{ts drive stalled after reaching the Iowa 6-yard line, first down and goal to go. . . . A plunge and two passes failed and Sdban’s attempt . at a field goal in front 'of the uprights was smeared by the alert Hawks.

While the Gophers were getting back into the conference title picture, Ohio State and Wisconsin continued as the Midwest’s only unbeaten elevens. The Bucks defeated Northwestern, 20 to 6, and Wisconsin won from Purdue, 13 to 0. In other games involving midwest teams Saturday, Notre Dame continued its comeback by knocking Illionis out of the perfect record list, 21 to 14; Iowa edged Indiana, 14 to 13, and Michigan - State whipped Great Lakes, 14 to 0. The Iowa naval cadets were idle. Minnesota had the clever Bill Garnaas back at quarterback. He drop kicked the field goal that provided the eventual winning margin and his direction revitalized the Gopher attack. Michigan scored in. the first quarter, but Minnesota took charge thereafter. The Gophers made a touchdown and a field goal in the second period and their second touchdown in the third quarter. Michigan’s second marker came late in the fourth period. The victory was the ninth. straight for Minnesota over Michigan in the “little brown jug” series. Bucks Give Proof Ohio State gave additional proof that it. deserves to be ranked among the nation’s teams by its convincing performance against Northwestern. With Paul Sarringhaus and Sopho-|. more Gene Feskete carrying the burden, the Bucks employed a devastating ground attack. They rolled up 324 yards by running against a mere 18 through the completion of two out of eight attempted aerials. Northwestern was shackled by Ohio State’s fast line and gained only 47 yards by rushing. Pat Harder, the Big Nine’s leading scorer last season, turned in his best game of the season fo aid Wisconsin in its triumph. The big fullback has been handicapped through the first half of the season by a leg injury. “Ohio ‘State and Wisconsin clash this week at Madison in the schedule’s headline contest. - Notre Dame had too much reserve strength in the backfield for Illinois. The Irish twice came from behind to tie the score and then pushed across its deciding touchdown in the fourth period. Tommy Farmer passed and kicked Iowa to its narrow victory over Indiana. Farmer threw only three passes, but all were ‘completed. One aerial was good for a touchdown and one set up the other score. Farmer also converted the two points after touchdown to provide the margin of victory. Great Lakes’ potentially powerful]. team ‘continued to stumble and fumble against Michigan State. Dick Rieppe provided the offensive punch Michigan State needed towin.
