Western Foot From Victory.

A GAINsT Central, for instance. the
game ended with Western batter
ing at Centrals goal from the l-foot
line. Western outplayed Tech, only
to lose, while decisively trimming
Roosevelt and Eastern.
Western, clinaxing a 65-yard drive
in the second period. drew first blood
when Len Weinstein tipped sharp
pass to Don Niklason in the end
zone from the 15-yard line and Mix
lason then added what later proved to
be very important extra point from
placement.
Somewhat riled at being pushed
about the field in the FIRST half, Gem
tral struck sharply through the air
in the third quarter for its two touch
downs. After Bill Wooten heaved .
15-yard pass to Sam Fox to place the
ball on Westerns 17-yard line
shortly after the kickoff, Billy Yer
million scooped UP a screwy pass from
center and threw wildly. Louis
Chacos bobbed up from nowhere on
the 8-yard line, however, and ran
the remaining distance to score. An.
other bad pass from center ruined q
chance for the extra point
Wooten set the stage for the next
score when he intercepted Weinstein's
aerial on the Western 80, returning
10 yards before Weinstein bumped
him out Of bounds. Vermillion then
faded back and shot q pass to Johnny
Pistolas in the end zone. vermillion
then passed to Fox for the extra
point.

SHAUoHNEssY smiled at the idea
of beating the best team in the
country. The season of his Maroons
is a success If they win one Big Ten
game. They've done that. at Wiscon-
sins expense. They wind up against
Illinois this Saturday.
They'll probably take us. but We'll
go in there fighting and hoping" said
the Chicago coach. With a few
breaks we might have q chance, even
against the fine defense I know Illinois
has We had some bad luck against
Indiana, but we're still hustling, and
always hoping.
That's the great thing about our
squad. We have only 80 players.
They all get in the game. Instead
of being discouraged after defeats,
they can't wait to start planning for
the next game. Why. they insisted on
having a meeting with me Sunday to
talk about what we would try against
Illinois.
What are you going TO do with
a bunch like that? They can take it
and keep their chins up. Maybe that's
the answer to a lot of things we often
overlook in this game"
What about next year? Did he have
any good freshman prospects?
Terrible" he replied. Not Q
chance in the world we will be any
better next season."

Who Regards Marquette
on Par With L. S. u.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

- HICAG o, November 18.-
Marquette, today, was as
good as Louisiana State or
~ Alabama" commented Ed
Walker, coach of Mississippi Univer-
sity, after the Golden Avalanche had
beaten his Rebels. SO to o.
Marquette has one of the finest
back fields I ever saw. Behind a
stronger offensive line, there would
be no stopping Buivid and Guepe.
Louisiana State beat us only 13 to 0.
but, after the first period, We never
were in the game against Marquette.
Let Guepe Run wild.
WE CONCENTRATED our de-
w fense to stop Ray Buivid. and
all he did was throw two touchdown
passes, carry half the work on an 30
yard scoring march, block and play
a grand defensive game. In our ef-
forts to tame Buivid, Mississippi gave
Art Guepe the chance to run wild for.
three touchdowns, and I think he is
the underestimated player on the
Marquette team. Guepe showed he
was more than runner by doing
part of the passing and punting."
Buivid lived up to his reputation as
one of the games greatest passers
when he fired two touchdown throws
against Mississippi He has pegged
10 scoring throws in games this
season and a total of 23 in his last
IS games.
Passes Are Timed Well.
WHAT makes Buivid's passing
even greater than the record
shows is that we have no outstanding
receivers" said Coach Frank Murray.
Our ends are not particularly fast
and Art Guepe Is the only good re-
ceiver in the back field Buivid has
had to compensate for that lack with
timing and accuracy"
Marquette must defeat Duquesne :
at Pittsburgh Saturday to finish with
an unblemished record. and continue
in the running for a Rose Bowl invi.
tation. The Milwaukee team has been
tentatively invited to the Sugar Bowl
at New Orleans and the Orange Bowl
at Miami. but Pasadena still is its
main goal.

Four Backs Garry Brunt.

THE Navy backfield. made up Of
Frank Case. Bob Antrim. Bill
Ingram and Sneed Schmidt. which
played as q unit in the first game this
season and as such at least in a por-
ton Of every game, will be the combi-
nation which will be expected to do
the heavy work against the Army,
whether it starts or not.
Case and Schmidt were regulars last
year and there has never been any
doubt of their place with the first
choice quartet Antrim had made a
sure place before the first game was
played. For short time, there was
hree-cornered fight for the fourth
place among Ingram. Newell Thomas
and Charley Reimann. but Ingram
won out before the first big game. that
with Yale. was played. Never in Navy
foot ball history has a full backfield
been formed so early and with such
certainty.

~HICAGO. November 1s. -
Northwestern, looking 70 It's
final game of the campaign
- with Notre Dame and the
first undefeate6 eleven in Purple foot
ball history, is tired team. After
its sensational victory over Mime
sofa. the Wildcat team was sluggish
against Wisconsin and permitted the
Badgers to complete 19 Of 80 forward
passes and score three touchdowns.
In the Michigan game North
western fumbled seven times, six
errors occurring in the first half and
one within a yard of the Wolverine
goal. Alert in recovering fumbles
during the early portion of the season,
the Purple allowed Michigan to re-
trieve four times. Rather evident
signs of fatigue.
Playing one Of the hardest sched-
ules in the foot ball planet, North
western came to its peak in October
to win from Ohio State and Mime
sofa. Those games were devastating
to the strength of the Purples scanty
spread Of backs and the effects have
been patent in subsequent contests.
Stars Lose Weight.
TON GEYER. the hard-driving
fullback, has shed many of the
100 pounds with which he started
the season. and Steve 10th. the alter
nate, who scored the touchdown
against Minnesota and all the points
in the Michigan duel. is down to $50.
The giant Fred Vanzo and rugged
Don Heap have stood up well under
the seasons battering. but to win
from Notre Dame Northwestern
must have its fullbacks at par. for
they have been the leading point
getters.
Fortunately for the Purple cause. the
twin lines and Leon (Red) Fuller. who
centers for both sets of forwards,
have not lost any appreciable amount
Of stamina. 1t was the Northwestern
line that held a slender 3-point edge
over Michigan into the final minutes
of the game and halted Wolverine
parade that went IS yards before the
Wildcats could apply the brakes. Dis
pirited when that march was checked
and an attempted field goal failed,
Michigan crumpled and broke under
Northwestern's late charge.
Opinion Is that it was North
Westerns slump rather than any def
mite improvement by Michigan that
made the game so close Conse-
quently. Lynn Waldorf has joined Burt
Ingwersen in the worrying cupola
this week.

Giant Killing In the Cards.

DLENTY of spots for little giant

and the boys, chastened by their ex-
perience In medal play. will take of
the wraps in match play and shoot
the works. They can't do that In
medal play, but chance-taking is a
big part Of match play. That's where
the giant-killers get in their deadly
work-the boys who try the big car
ries or 90 boldly for the puts from 80
feet and more.
A couple Of rounds Of golf like he
showed in the medal rounds and
Walper Is going to be a giant-killer
IN his own right. The guy can play
match play. too, for he had o tough
training back In the days when he
was the chief pay-off gent in the
little pro tournaments around the
Capital. That was only three years
ago, but today he isn't the fall guy
any longer. Today he Is thA only
Washington qualifier for the P. G.. A.
championship and for two days the
boys In the press room have been
asking, Who is this guy walperp
Where did he come from?" They may
have to learn more about him If he
keeps on plugging away and happens
to get a hot round against one Of the
big-name club-swingers.
Tied for seventh in the p. G.. A. cham
pionship medal round Is no ordinary
stunt for any gent, and particularly
for Walper, who happens to be play
ing In his first P. G. A. championship.
Scoring 73 over the first round. he
wound up the medal play with
"a, which might as we'll have been
10 or better had his putter not turned
on him. Leo three-putted three
greens and took four puts on an
other. That's five extra strokes. Take
them of "a and you have a SO. But
he's done pretty well, at that. Usually
the boys have to wait a year or two
before they can even qualify in this
tournament. You'll hear more about
Walper. The guy Is really in the
groove, as they say In the quaint
idiom of golf. And no man works
harder on his game. If he misses two
shots with a certain club in q round
OF golf, he spends half-hour with
that club later in the day-working
toward better than q nodding ac-
quaintance with the bat that BETRAYED
him.
