Tiger Gridders Will Host whip Rockville

Evansville Aces Sat.

Exhilarated by its upset win over Valparaiso, DePauw opens its homecoming gates Saturday to let in Evansville College for a 2 p. m. shoot out in Blackstock Stadium. The 21st match between the two schools weds a pair of teams definitely on the rebound after being classified by ICC coaches as “bottom of the rungers’’ in a pre-season poll.

Evansville leads the series 8-11. One game was a tie. The Aces, with tank-like lines averaging nearly 240 (defensive) and 230 (offensive), move into Saturday’s scramble fresh from a 21-21 tie with unbeaten Ball State. Its second victory in three games eluded Evansville when Ball State scored on a 53-yard pass play and two-point con-

Once Over Lightly By Don Whitehead

October is probably the top sports month of the year. The World Series is the top attraction for the first week and the IHSAA cross country sectionals are slated for the third week in this month. Reading the Lions International magazine, I came across probably the most unusual sporting event ever held in this country. (If you could call it sport.) Starting at exactly 3:46 p.m. on March 4, 1928, 199 men, ranging in age from 16 to 63, from a dozen countries, started a 3,442 mile walk from Ascot racetrack in Los Angeles to Madison Square Garden in New York City. The course was broken into eighty-four laps, varying from twenty miles to 70 miles in length. Each contestant was required to start off at the same time each morning and check in

each night before midnight. The participant with the shortest elapsed time between Los Angeles and New York City would win the top prize of $25,000 cash. All 199 starters successfully completed the first twenty mile stint, but after the eighth day, the ranks had dwindled to 120. On May 26, only fifty-five of the original starters limped into Madison Square Garden to start the 20 mil:e stint around the board track to qualify for the total prize money of $48,500. The hardy survivors had battled every kind of weather from rain and wind to snow and hail to reach their destination. Andy Payne, an Oklahoma Indian youth, won first prize in a walking time of 573 hours, four minutes and thirty-four seconds and his life expectancy shortened by 10 years by the wear and tear of the race.

Michigan State, Michigan Game Tops Big 10 Action

CHICAGO UPI — Michigan State, ranked No. 1 nationally and favored to win the Big Ten football crown for the second straight year, faces a strong traditional foe in a highlight Midwest game Saturday. The Spartans remained a solid 12point favorite to whip Michigan. Michigan State, with wins over two non-conference rivals, also has pne Big Ten victory, over Illinois, and thus will be risking both its top national rating as well as a place at the top of the conference title chase. Spartan coach Duffy Daugherty rated Michigan a rugged rival despite the Wolverines’ upset loss to North Carolina last Saturday, and cited Michigan’s passing, running and defense' as dangerous. Three other conference games were on the Saturday slate as the league moves into a sevenweek stretch in which almost every game will be for the title and a possible Rose Bowl shot. Indiana, sharing the top rung

Names Driver

MODENA, Italy UPI—Tecno of Bologna, a new racing car company, announced Thursday that it has signed Britain's Bolly Pittard to a contract as a race and test driver. Tecno, which plans to enter formula two and formula three racing next year, said it also has signed Switzerland’s Andre Regazzoni and Italians Carlo Baghetti and Carlo Facetti.

in the Big Ten standings with the Spartans and Wisconsin, was no more than an even bet for its match at home against Minnesota. Purdue was a solid 23-point favorite for its home meeting with Iowa, winner only over Arizona in three previous contests, and the Ulinois-Ohio State clash at Champaign was rated even. The Illini will be seeking their first victory after defeats by Southern Methodist, Missouri and Michigan State, only team in the league with a ninegame schedule, has a win over Texas Christian and a loss to Washington. Both conference teams facing non-league rivals were underdogs. Northwestern travels to Oregon State, with the Beavers an eight-point choice, while Wisconsin will be at home against No. 8-ranked Nebraska with the Cornhuskers a 12-point favorite. Nebraska seeks its fourth straight win, posting a 12-6 decision over Iowa State last week, the same team that Wisconsin beat in the opener. Northwestern will be the third Big Ten team on the Oregon State schedule. Previously, Oregon state lost to Michigan and beat Iowa. Notre Dame, ranked No. 3 nationally, was a 27-point choice to break Army’s unbeaten string at three games in their clash at South Bend.

version after time ran-out That leaves the Aces with a glossy 7-6 win over Bradley, a 21-0 loss to Southeast Missouri and a highly honorable tie with the ICC champs. At the other end of the state DePauw was shaking off two poor showings by handling Valparaiso 31-15. With bumps and bruises suffered only by tackles Ray Arvay and Rock Klein and halfback John Butler, the Tigers escaped virtually unscathed. “Other than these injuries we came out of the Valpo game in good shape, and I believe we came out with a whale of a lot of confidence in ourselves,” Coach Tom Mont observed. There were three big reasons for that upstate success, according to Mont He chalked the improvement up to a vastly better kicking game by Eric Lortz, the ability to get the big third down play when it was needed, and the success of the pass-run option. With one exception—the last play of the game, Mont said his backs made the right decision on the nm-pass alternative and got good yardage. Their successes last Saturday should be sobering to both clubs here Saturday. DePauw, as a matter of fact, never has been overly profitable with the consistently big Evansville entry, even though last year’s score was just 3-0 up until the last 189 seconds. The Aces won it with a final flurry, 17-0. “Our big problem with Evansville,” Mont said at mid-w„ek, “has been taking control of the game. We’ve never been able to control the ball on them, and our offense has always seemed pretty piecemeal.” DePauw has scored only one TD against Evansville in the last two games. The Tigers last won, 19-7 in 1963. The size of Evansville’s line promises little hope for grinding ball control this trip. The Aces’ defensive line stood off almost even with Ball State’s powerhouse, and its offensive unit helped the Ace backfield jam the ball down Ball State’s throat better than anyone else has done In four years. Big gainers for first year coach Jim Byers are 215-pound fullback Ken Mills and 175 pound halfback Don Crane. Crane averaged seven yards in 14 carries, Mills 3.5 in 22. Only a few personnel changes are contemplated by Mont in the Tigers’ third ICC tilt. All of them involve sophomores. If Arvay’s knee fails to respond his spot on the defensive line will be taken by either Bill Pope or Don Ward. Both are sophomores. In the offensive backfield Mont plans to give John Sacramento more opportunity to show his wares. The Waukegan, HI., sophomore had two carries last week, but he was used mainly on defense. One thrust was a 28-yard broken field TD gallop. Tentative Startinr Linenpi

LOS ANGELES — Willie Davis lost two fly balls in the sun and make three errors in a record breaking fifth inning Thursday while 20-year-old Jim Palmer made it two straight World Series victories for the Baltimore Orioles by beating the mighty Sandy Koufax of the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-0. The Dodgers’ defense collapsed in a six-error farce, the likes of which has not been seen since the 1917 Chicago White Sox also made six goofs in a Series game. The handsome Palmer, with four pancakes under his belt and three pieces of bubble gum as a good luck charm in his hip pocket, became the youngest pitcher ever to throw a Series shutout as he spun his four-hit magic over the sick Dodger bats. In two losing games, the Dodgers, who had been 8-5 favorites, have made only seven hits while committing six errors.

BOWLING NEWS

Palmer, who won’t be 21 until Oct. 15, must have wondered if these were the same slick Dodgers he had read about—the canny veterans who get by on slick fielding, speed and shut-

out pitching.

While the Dodgers staggered around under fly balls in the bright sunshine and threw the ball against the stands and into the dugout, young Palmer was knocking Waite Hoyt out of the

record book.
