Title Hinges on Minnesota
and Michigan Clash
Other Rivalry Games.
BY Edward G.. Derr
United Press staff Correspondent


CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-The grand
finale Of the 1925 football season in
the Big Ten conference comes Satur-
day in four games, one of which
will determine the championship.
First place will be at stake when
Minnesota and Michigan clash at
Ann Arbor. A victory for the
Gophers will make them undisputed
champions with two wins and and
a tie game comprising their seasons
conference record.
If Michigan wins, the Gophers will
be tumbled far down the list be-
cause of the slim schedule, and
Michigan will be rated the most
powerful team in the conference.
The Wolverine record would then
be five victories and one defeat and
second honors would go to North
western, with three wins and one
defeat.
The Illinois-Ohio State game OF
Columbus brings together two an
Gent rivals, but since both teams
have been eliminated from titular
consideration, the chief interest in
this battle will center around Red
Grange, who finishes his collegiate
career and has promised to make
public Immediately after the game
his plans for the future.
Chicago and Wisconsin, with ident-
ical records to date, meet at Stage
Field. There Is no love lost between
these two universities and the game
is always bitterly contested.
Indiana and Purdue will fight it
out for cellar position at Blooming
ton. Each team has three Big Ten
defeats and no victories to boast
about.
The other conference schools have
finished their schedules and will
meet strong non-conference teams

 There are more than 800 blind per sens in this state who are over fifty years of age. Many of these are too old or too infirm to go to an institu- tion for the blind to learn trade.

The state further helps these blind people by collecting the articles which they have made and selling them for them. The full price which is paid for an article IS given to the blind person who made it.
 There will be a variety of articles lon exhibition at this time. They will consist largely of tea stands, serving trays. baskets of various sorts, a vari- ety ef reed and raffia work. aprons for children and adults. wash cloths, hold CTS. woven rag rugs. home made can dy. etc
 Those who visit the sale will be sur rrised at the variety and workmanship shown in the things which will be on sale. It is hoped that large number of people in and around Putnam will call at the store and view the articles.

parked at house some 400 yards away.
They intended to bring the car back to

fRv The Associated Press.D

LAKEHURST, N. j., Sept. %.
The Shenandoah was ordered
on her fatal flight to the West
on September 2 despite recon-
mendations Of Lieutenant Com
mander Zachary Lansdowne that
the trip be deferred until the
second week in September. This
is shown by official documents
read into the record today Of the
naval court of inquiry by Cap
tain George w. Steele, Jr., COM
mandant of the Lakehurst air
station.
After the navy department. had dis
approved his plan for starting at the
later period, Commander Lansdowne
made no further protest, Captain Steele
declared to the court.
The correspondence showed the de-
partment was very anxious to have the
great airship visit state fairs in Ohio,
Indiana, Michigan, Iowa and other
western states during the first two
weeks of September. t-4
Commander Lansdowne replied that
since there would not be time to COM
plete preparations at Scott Field, Ill.
for the reception Of the ship, he would
suggest that the voyage be deferred
until the second week.
The navy department disapproved Of
this plan, fixed the itinerary, and Com
mander Lansdowne undertook to carry
out the schedule. The trip first had
been suggested for July, but Commander
Lansdowne objected because it would
be during the season of thunderstorms
in the middlewest and it was because
Of this objection that the flight was
deferred until September. After de-
scribing frequent inspections made of
the great airship and particularly OF
the metal structure, Captain Steele told
the court that her condition at the
time of departure was such that her
departure met with his entire approval.
He added that the flight was under
taken by officers and men in the very
hopeful spirit of bringing the utility
and desirability of this type of craft
home to the people of the country.
