Joint undertaking by the two Govern

The report, published as q hand
book, recommends and describes a
radical departure in the method of
! making timber joints for structural
purposes. including the application of
a variety Of specially designed joint
Strengthening devices, and represents
years of cooperative research by the

Moratorium Of g Months.

A proclamation requesting financial

1t was Houses lG2-pound frame

Iowa Not Understanding
Badgers Despite Illinois
Victory

Chicago. Oct. l9.--tP,--Being guest
1T Illinois Homecoming game last
week proved to be disastrous propo-
sition for Wisconsin and the Badgers
are hoping there will be no repetition
IT its Saturday plight when they fur
nish the opposition for Iowa Univer-
sity's Homecoming at Iowa City.
Coach Clarence tDoc> Spears
badgers went down to Champaign for
the gala festivities with expectations
OF winning their opening Big Ten
Conference game. but the Illini push
ed the visitors around to the extent
ct three touchdowns. However. the
score was no indication of the Badg-
crs' power: they just weren't clicking.
Ard the first to notice it was Coach
Ossie Solem Of Iowa, who attended
the game.
After the game Solem said he felt
sorry for the team that moderated
Wisconsin and that he was frankly
worried over Iowa's prospects. The
Hawkeycs looked great when they
beat Northwestern z to Q and a week
later trounced Bradley, 80 to o.
Reports coming from the two camps
have been confusing. Spears cannot
Seem to make up his mind which
players to use, while at Iowa City in
Juries have complicated the situation.
Crowd predictions for the game are
more than 10000 with possible
chance OF breaking the stadium rec
ord Of $4,000.

st. Mary's Looks for Victory but
Bismarck Is Not 50
Optimistic.
JAMESTOWN TEAM STRONG
Demons See Inspired Play and
Few Breaks Necessary
for Victory

Bismarck's two high school football
teams face games Friday with widely
differing prospects.
Coach George l.. Hays expects his
st. Mary'S eleven to win easily over
the heavier Assumption Abbey team
at Richardton in an afternoon game
at the western community.
But Coach Roy D. Mcleod does not
look through such rose -colored glass
es as his team makes ready to meet
the strong Blue Jeys at Jamestown
under floodlights in night game.
Jamestown will be q heavy favorite
to defeat Bismarck and maintain its
unblemishcd record. Tho Jays SO far
have crushed Devils Lake. one Of the
pre- season favo.itcs. as we'll as Car
rington and Valley City.
On the other hand. the Demons suf-
fcred a crushing defeat at the hands
Of Minot which beat Devils Lake by
the same score as did Jamestown, 20
to 6.
The fact that Bismarck showed inn
proyement as it beat Wiuiston last
weekend does give Mcleod some en-
couragement. however.
In the general consensus, however,
only inspired play and probably few
breaks can give Bismarck victory over
the Jays, but no one expects the De-
mons to throw in the towel until the
final whistle.
Both Bismarck teams will have the
same strength they had last weekend.
Captain Larry Schneider of the De-
mons is not expected to play.

Minnesota Leading
lntersectionals

New York, Oct l9.--'P)--Of ali the
big games on the football slate this
week. one in the east and one in the
midwest seem to be attracting bit
more attention than the rest. The
eastern affair is Princeton VS.. Colum-
bia and the midwestern is the Michi-
gan-Ohio State clash. outstanding
game Of the Big Ten program.
There's lot OF traditional interest
behind both games and when the
teams appear to be among the leaders
in their respective sections they are
"naturals' for the crowds. There
seems to be little doubt that the VIM
ner between Michigan and Ohio State
will be headed right for the western
conference title. barring, Of course,
upsets.
Princeton and Columbia not only
have two of the most promising teams
in the east and a history which runs,
with several Interruptions, back to
1874 but the indications are the game
will be about the most attractive in
the eastern sector Saturday. AS re-
suit $4,000 people are expected to turn
out to see how much progress Fritz"
Crisler has made in his second year

There are plenty Of other attractive
contests on the eastern slate and IN
the midwest, notably the intersection
a! clashes between Illinois and Army
at Cleveland and Pittsburgh and
Minnesota at Minneapolis. but most
OF them have a weak spot somewhere.
The Big Ten schedule includes Chi
cago-Purdue. Iowa Wisconsin and
Northwestern Indiana but none OF
these games can measure up to the
Ohio State Michigan battle.
The east offers Carnegie Tech VS..

Wrigley has been merely an inter-

Minnesota Will Face Another
Great Set Of Backs Saturday
Pitt Will Have Sebastian. o'oojl,
Weinstock and Bob
Hogan

Minneapolis, Oct. 1e.-Factng one Of
the greatest backfields in the coun.
try for the second successive week
end, Minnesota's sophomores are pre-
pairing to meet an entirely different
type Of attack when Pittsburgh plays
at Memorial Stadium Saturday In the
first major home intersectional game
a Gopher team has played since 1880.
The game also will be feature OF the
annual Dads Day exercises and Of the
state Legion Day program.
In Purdue last week the Gophers
met a flasty group Of backfield men
schooled in the quick hitting, decep-
tive Notre Dame style OF play. This
Saturday they will get their first view
Of the Warner brand of football
played with the notifications taught
by DR.. John B. Sutherland. one Of
its greatest opponents.
The Panthers depend on powerful
offensive style Of play built around
fest backs and heavy line that can
get down the field and block ahead
OF the 0au carriers.
Pittsburgh. like Purdue, is q team
possessing full measure of expert
cnce. With the exception Of Warren
Heller, who won All-American honorS'
last fall, the Panther offense Is COM
posed Of practically the same players
that defeated Notre Dame and sew
eral other leading teams last year.
Their attack IS formed largely around
Mike Sebastian, q llalfback who can
pass and run, and Howdie ODell. q.
lightning fast runner. Izzy Weinstock,
a 20O-pound fullback and Bob Hogan.
q quarterback who is rated as one Of
the East's leading punters, complete
this backfield. Heinie Weisenbaugh
and Harvey Randour are capable
alternates to this group.
To meet this imposing array Of
backs Minnesota will have an offelse
of its own to offer that gained 222
yards to Purdues So last week and a
defense that contains some Of the
hardest tackling that a Gopher team
! has exhibited in recent years.
With the exception of Capt. Ro-
Gen, all of the Gophers who will play
against Pittsburgh Saturday will face
the Painters again next year. Six OF
the group are sophomores including
Dick Smith and George Svcndsen,
tackles: Bill Bevan, guard: Sheldon
Beise. fullback: Glen Scidel. quarter,
and Julius Alfonso, right half.
Francis Lund, Minnesota's all
| around ace, will. be at left half, and
blocking ahead of him in the line will
be Frank Larson and Bob Tenncr

Gen, center.

Lafayette. Ind. Oct. 19.--The Big

offenses Of any conference in tho

In the MAN. Big Ten football is Of
fensive football that provides oppor
tunities for Widc-opcn varied attacks.
Necessity is the mother of invention,
and when you find. as you do in the
Big Ten frequently, that there is very
little difference in strength between
first division and second division
teams, a straight power attack Is not
normally nearly as successful as an
attack which provides for an open,
varied game.

Ohio State and Northwestern might
be cited as examples Of the two styles
Of games. Ohio State normally has
used a close double. wingback forma-
ton, and without big, powerful men
has found it difficult to score against
teams of equal power. Northwestern
uses a similar offense, but with more
variations, and is usually considered
q more dangerous scorer"

The forward passing game In the
