INDIVIDUAL SCORING
LEADERS TOP HIGH
RANKING SO STARS
Average Team and Game Totals
Have Fallen Off Every
Year Since 1890
LEADING TEAMS SHOW GAINS
Colgate, Army, Columbia and
Tulane Continue to Pile
Up Big Figures

New York. Dec. 5.-(F-Despite
the rulemakers' efforts to give the
customers more touchdoWns to cheer,
q compilation Wednesday by the As
ISOLATED Press Of the seasons records
Of 154 college football teams shows q
continuance In 1884 OF the scoring
decline which set in four years ago.
Each year since 1880 the average
team and game score has dropped
until this year it is only 1912 points
q team and 1919 q game. In 1880 the
figures were 139 and Is.
The drop In team totals is In con-
t-ast to the individual scoring in
which the head men Of 1934-Bill
Shepherd Of Western Maryland; John
Oravec Of Willamette. and Paul Mill
er Of South Dakota State-all topped
the l08 points Pete Young Of Blue
field college made to lead the coun-
try's touchdown artists last fall.
Shepherd scored 1873 points, Oravec
100, and Miller, ll6.
Leading Teams Falter
One explanation for slackened
scoring can be found in failure Of
several leading teams Of 1888 to turn
out touchdowns with equal rapidity
this fall. Michigan and Southern
California are examples.
The rise Of several teams from poor
seasons in 1883 to top ranking in
their sections Is shown In the figures.
There's Navy with only 30 points
last year and 1913 this year; Mime
sofa with 81 and 30: North Carolina,
II and 1875: Ohio State, 16l and 267:
Rice. S., and 204: and Southern
Methodist, 80 and PIT.

number Of points this year as last.
