PURDUE IS SAVED
BY BYEL|NE' RUN
Passes for One Touchdown,
Beats Wisconsin With
73-Yard Sprint.
By the Associated Press.

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Oct 22-Wis-
consin's Badgers looked to be winners
over Purdue this sunshiny afternoon
until young man from Massillon,
Ohio, named Mike Byeline, got into
the football game in the second half.
Thereafter, with the Massillon ma
rauder at large. it was a different
story, and the Boilermakers emerged
on top, 13 to 7.
A Homecoming crowd of $1,000 saw
Purdue win its first Big Ten Conference
game of the current campaign.
The Badgers couldn't stop the Soph-
omore Byeline. He passed and he ran
and two Purdue touchdowns were the
result. Without Byeline the Boiler
makers were just another football
team. With him they looked to be
two other teams.
Wisconsin Gets a Break.

Purdue's first tally came in the third
period on pass from Byeline to Jack
Krause after 59-yard march In
the fourth period Byeline shot of
tackle and raced 73 yards for the
winning marker.
The game started out as punting
duel Then Brock fumbled a Wiscon-
sin kick and the Badgers recovered on
the Boilermaker eleven. Roy Bellin

The Badgers threatened again as the

to play, a furry of passes went awry

BROWSE around the sandlot

many names that were promi-

4 a nent in local sports a decade

of identities. it is necessary frequently
to disregard certain subsequently ac-
quired camouflages such as mid-riff
spare tires" and thinning thatches.
For example, the Mount Vernon bas-
keters of the Y. M. c. A. Sunday

Center Basket Ball Leagues form one
of the more venerable groups. AL

played with its first basket ball team

and in his mind the boys represent
one of the most spirited and long-lived
athletic outfits in town.
