WOLVERINES FACE
 TOUGHEST BATTLE
Michigan Meets Hardy Minn@o-
 ia Eleven Next Saturday

Chicago. Nov. IS R-Mchigan, whose early season hopes were the brightest to win the 1926 Big Ten title, now faces the hardest test of the two conference teams who have remained undefeated ill this seasons s campaigns.
 The Wolverines must defeat the hardy Minnesota eleven at Minne- apolis next Saturday to clinch or at least tie with Northwestern for the mythical midwestern honors.
 On the other hand. the Purple warriors expect to have @ compara- lively light afternoon against Iowa at Iowa City. Iowa has lost all four of It's conference starts. while Min resota has a record of two confer ence victories. In addition the gall loping gophers further added to their record as a dangerous combin- ation by running up the top heavy score of S1 against Butler Satur- day.
 Michigan came through the semi finals by it's close IS to 16 victory over Ohio State, one of the big guns of the conference, and while favored over Minnesota in the seasons final. may find the Gophers one of the most difficult barriers to their cham pionship aspirations. Northwestern's win over Chicago. coming on the heels of three previous Big Ten wins, added to the prestige Of the Evans ton Institute as one Of the midwest ern leaders.
 Outside the conference territory both Michigan and Northwestern have suffered defeats, the Wolver- ines falling before the Navy. with Northwestern a victim of the pow erful Notre Dame eleven. so that team for team honors are about even.
