TITLES SETTLED
 IN GAMES PLAYED
East Is Only Section That
 Hasn't a Recognized Leader

New York, Nov. 2S LPl-Thanks- giving days football slate decided three more conference champion ships and left only the east, among the major groups, lacking a goncr- ally recognized leader.
 In day conspicuous by a decided absence Of form reversals, the Southwestern, Big Six and Southern conferences wound up their seasons yesterday insofar as titular play goes.
 In the southwest, the Texas Long horns supplanted Texas Christian as tltleholders by whipping the hapless Texas Aggies, c6-0. In the Bic Six, Kansas walked into the title with out q struggle when the Oklahoma 6y Missouri's inexperienced outfit. In the Southern conference, tho situation IS not so cut and dried for both Alabama and Tulane finished
  and united. Alabama registered its eighth straight conference triumph by whipping Georgia after bitter battle, 13-Q. Tulane also found plenty of trouble with Louisiana State but finally cked out a le-7 victory.
 In the east yesterdays standout game saw Cornell eleven, led by Bart Viviano. outplay Penn and win. lG-7, for the first time since 1925. Colgate added further to it's secton- al title claims by whipping Brown, 20. The Maroons beaten only bJ Michigan State, look like one of the sections really powerful elevens. but there are other formidable cun- didates such as the Army, Dart mouth and Tordham.
 The south had a heavy holiday schedule but only the Tulane and Alabama games had any bearing on the title. Auburn chalked up it's first conference victory in four years by trouncing South Carolina, 25-T and Florida for the first time sue ceeded in beating Georgia Tech anl did it thoroughly, 55-7.
 In the Big Six, the Kansas Az sies. who never had gotten better than a tie with Nebraska, beat the Cornhuskers, 1o-o. At Chicago. the Oregon ACCies concentrated their attack in the third period to whip West Virginia, 12-o.
 Utah. which cnnched the Rocky mountain title some time ago, closed another unbeaten season with 4l-o triumph over the utah AgGios In the Pacific Coast conference. al ready won by Washington State.

.BOYS' CLUB BURIES
 ITS ANCIENT RIVAL
Ferony Scores "A Points as Locals Whip MiddletOWn "Y"

The Boys club promising young basketball quintet gave further in- dications of it's power last evening when it swept the strong MiddletoWn Y. NJ. C. A. team off its feet on the latter's home floor and turned the rivals annual Thanksgiving night battle into q 43-26 rout. Again Tony Ferony, the clubs new find, proved the star of the game. Ferony dashed and slithered through a completely helpless Middletovn defense for nine field goals, adding six out of seven free tries to bring his total to A points in this brilliant display of shooting. Tony Kereletza, local cen ter, gathered five baskets, and Joe Boukus picked of four and a foul, completing New Britains scoring.
 Usually these yearly holiday games have been close battles, for Middletown has always had one of the best Y. M. C. A. quintets in the state and has, in fact, won the an- nual series from the locals for sev cral years running. Last night the home team was handicapped by the absence of Wilcox, its all-talking star forward, who had been married the day before. and also by the fact that it was playing it's first game. Yet the power the Hardware City team showed seemed 10 be authori tative, the attack beH ildering the older and heavier "Y" players and the defense holding them to an al most foolshly low score until the locals eaeed up in the second half.
 Fcrony led New Britain's invaders out to a 15-5 lead in the first quar- ter. and the club pushed its margin 10 g3-7 in q rather slow second peri cd. After intermission things were moro even. but Ray Anderson's charges added another one point to their lead despite the uee of substi- tutes, and MiddletoWn never was in the running for an instant.
 Frederickson the lengthy center. and Johnson. chubby but keen-eyed forward. featured for the home team. Two men who played at right for ward were able to get but one has- kct between them off Winters, local left guard. The summary:

League Standing

Three more games. featuring a battle between the championship Corbin Screw quintet and the Gas cos, will be played tonight at the Tobs' hall in tho Industrial Basket hall league. A slight change has been made in the program for the night. The second game on the list will be played first.
 The opening contest will bring to- gether the league leading Stanley Works team and the Corbin Cabinet Lock combination. The Stanley Works crew has been hitting a fast pace in the league so far and the players confidently expect to come through with a victory over Johnny Tobin's crew tonight.
 The second game of the night IS being hailed as the feature contest in the tripleheader. 1t will be be- tween the Corbin Screw team and Gascos. The Screw Shop crew has played only one game since the opening of the season. That result ed in a victory over the Corbin Cab met Lock aggregation. The Gascos have suffered two defeats, both by close scores. Tonight's meeting should be productive of plenty of bask ketball
 The third contest will bring the Newmatics and Fafnirs together. Fafnirs won a game and lost one ia the league so far and although the NeWmatics dropped two games, the team is improving with every contest and it wouldn't be at all surprising if the team should score its first vic- tory tonight.
 The first contest on the bill will start at 1:30 o'clock.

Northwestern Lands Quartet Of
 Stars On Conference Team

 all with a quartet of it's stars win ming berths.
 The honorary eleven was selected today for the Associated Press by coaches, active officials and football
 writers, who closely followed the conference football campaign.
 Michigan, co-champion of the
 Conference with Northwestern; Pur-
 due, 1929 titleholders and runner-up
 this fall. and Wisconsin, which tied
 Ohio State for fourth and fifth po-
 sitions in the race, placed two of their players each while Ohio State
 landed Wesley Fesler for the third straight year by unanimous choice. The team. averaging 1SS pounds in weight and five feet ten inches in height, is one of great potential power. It possesses speed, gibraltic strength in the forward wall. foot
 ball sense and deception. It lacks some of the pile driving punch Of i former all star teams but probably possesses greater versatility.
 Newman was picked by the ma
 jority over John White of Purdue for the quarterback post because he undoubtedly was the one big offen- sivc spark that enabled Michigan $ comparatively light scoring machine
 to win a share of the championship porridge. He was one of the best passers in the Conference and won
 game after game for the Wolver- ines with his losses. Newman was hailed during the season as a second Bennie Friedman. He is a sophO more and lives in Detroit.

 Baker and Fcslcr were unanimous
 choices for the end positions and
 ranked by most critics as outstand ing candidates for the 1930 All America teams.

Another Pioneer
Called To Reward

News Of the death OF his mother,
Mrs. Margaret Brown, was received
Tuesday by John J. Brown Of Libby.
The wire was sent by . son, George
F. Brown Of Wallace, Ida, with whom
the aged mother had been living since
the death Of her husband In August,
1928, and stated that Mrs. Brown had
passed away Monday evening.
The body Il expected to arrive in
Libby today. Funeral services will be
conducted Friday morning 1t 10
o'clock from St. Joseph's Catholic
church, Ind huri1i Nh ~1y the sfde
q her husband in the Libby cem-
etery.
Mr.. and Hrs. Brown were real
pioneers of Montana having come to
the state in 1874, and having lived in
Montana during all Of its early and
stirring history, when Indian wars
were common and when Mr.. Brown
fought with U. S. troops against the
Indians.
Mrs. Brown was born in County
Wexford, Ireland, and was 83 years
Olu al ncT UexlLtl. one CAME 10 lOWA
from Ireland and was married to Mr..
Brown at Fort Dodge, Ia, in 1870.
They removed to Montana in 1874,
roming~to Libby in 1895, where they
made their home up to Mr.. Browns
death two years ago.
Six children were born to this
couple, three Of whom survive them:
George F. Brown of Wallace, Ida,
John j. Brown of Libby, and Mrs.
Mary H. Faust Of Portland, Or.
Mrs. Brown was of that sturdy
stock Of which pioneers are made and
did her full part as citizen Of the
new commonwealth that was being
carved out Of the western wilderness.
She was kind and loving wife and
mother, always deeply concerned with
the welfare Of her home and family,
and was active in community life until
advancing years forced retirement. AL
though she lived far past the allotted
span Of the average person, yet her
taking away will leave a feeling of
deep sorrow in the hearts of the sur
wiring children and many warm
friends.
