Chicago Bears Are Beaten Again; Washington
 Loses Tilt
BY GEORGE KIRKsEY

United Press Staff Correspondent New York, Oct. 30-(UP)- The New York Giants, . remarkable gang of money ball players" who1l put out only enough to win, were the only undefeated team in the National Football League today. x
 slicing victory just as thin as spos- sible, the Giants triumphed over the Brooklyn Dodgers, 7-6, yester- day and gained undisputed possess. sion of the Eastern division lead and extended their record of no defeats through ls straight games. The only other unbeaten team, the Washing- ton Redskins, bit the dust out in Milwaukee where the Green Bay. Packers rolled up a 24-14 victory. I
 Biggest surprise in the pro ranks was Detroit's .10-0 conquest of the Chicago Bears, practically eliminate ing the Windy City eleven from the championship race. The packers and Lions remain deadlocked for the Western division lead, each with five victories and one defeat. In the other Sunday game the Pittsburg Pirates battled the favored Cleve- land rams to 14.14 deadlock.
 Crowds Continue
 For the third straight Sunday the pro league exceeded the 100000 mark in attendance, drawing .100, ,822 paid customers to the four games. Top crowd was 34,032 which saw the Giant-D Dodger game at Brooklyn.
 Ken Strong's placement kick for the extra point after Fluffy Lee mans second period touchdown provided the Giants margin of vic. tory in a bitter tussle with the Dod- gers. Brooklyn scored on two field goals by Ralph Kercheval, one from the 20 and the other from the 47 longest in the league this season.)
 The Dodgers walked off with everything except the victory. They outgained the Giants, 233 yards to 175, made N yards to the Giants 57 on passes, and averaged ~ to the Giants 4l on punts. But when the chips were down the Giants were superior.
 Green Bays alert pass defense spelled victory for. the Packers who intercepted five of Sammy Baugh's | passes and turned them into 10 | points. their exact margin of triumph.
 The Bears failed to bounce back | after their defeat by the Giants, 16- 13, Q week ago, and hit the skids again against the Lions.
 Charles Hanneman's 37-yard field goal gave the Lions a 80 halftime lead. An intercepted pass set the stage for Detroits third period touchdown.
 A fourth period touchdown by Johnny Drake enabled Cleveland to get 8 14-14 standoff with the Pir- ates. Hugh McCullough's 9-yard run and 27-yard pass to Sam Boyd &C., counted for the two Pittsburg touchdow11s.

CORNELL RATED NOBETTER THAN
 NINTH ON LIST
Tennessee and Michigan Tops TrOjans to Get
 Test in Far West ]!
BY HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports Editor)

\ Ns tgss@sSeA &S13 gHS@ " &s@A4w44t
 New York, Oct. S0.-(UP) Eleven teams came out Of the mid-season scramhle today with . chance for the national football championship.
 Some have been tied but ncns has been beaten. As they move into November and the tough games ahead. this is about the way they rate:
 l. Tennessee: 2. Michigan. .. No. tre Dame: {. Texas A. and N., & Southern California, 6. Tulane, 2. Oklahoma; 8. Nebraska; 9. Cornell 10; Oregon State. II. North Caro- lima.
 There is . general Idea around that Tennessee and Michigan are the pick of the country, but prob- ably any of the Il teams would be an even money bet against any other. That theory will be tested this Saturday when Southern Calis fornia meets Oregon State ct porta land in the game of the day. tt That game probably will decide the western representative for the Rose Bowl. Southern California has defeated Washington State, Hi. nois and California and has tied Oregon. Oregon State has defeated Stanford, Idaho, Portland, washing ton and Washington State. Of the remaining top II teanaA only Tennessee and Texas A. and M. have trouble ahead this Saturday. Tennessee meets Q powerful, re- sourceful Louisiana State team and Texas A. and M. goes against an Arkansas squad that is better than its record. Other games involving the ranking teams:
 Notre Dame-Army, Michigan-Illi- nois. Oklahoma.I a.Iowa State, Ne- braslta-M Missouri. Cornell Columbia, North Carolina-North Carolina State. Tulane has an open date.
 Consolation Games
 Among the teams that have tasted defeat there are some good ones scheduled for the week end. Here they are by sections:
 South-Alabama- -Kentucay, Bay. lor-Texas Christian, 0eorse Tech. Duke, Southern Methodist Texas.
 Gast--Detroit- villanova, Furdhan. Rice, Pennsylvania Navy, Princeton Harvard, Syracuse. Agichigan State. Temple. Pittsburgh, Yale- Dartmouth.
 Midwest Kansas State, Minnesota Northwestern, Ohio State e-Indiana, purdue-Iowa.
 Far West-O Oregon. Washington State Stanford-Sauta Clara, UCLA-CaNfornia, Utah. Colorado. Idaho Utah State, Washington Mon. tana, Colorado stste-Wyoming.
 Going back to Saturday, here were some of the high lights:
 Biggest upset Cornell's 23.l4 vic. tory over an Ohio State team that was supposed to have 50 much power that its second team could handle this one.
 Player of the day--Jim Laiannt of North Carolina who led the way to the 30-to-6 victory over penusyl- vania. He figured in every point scored by his team, throwing three touchdown passes and scoring one touchdown himself. He held the ball for . field goal and for all the con- versions that his team made.
 Luckiest teana--Notre Dame, which won another one by one point, when It defeated Carnekie Tech, . to 6 In five games, Notre Dame has scored only 6l points to It's oppon. erits' 46, but is stiil unbeaten and un. tied.

PULSE OF THE PUBLIC

At the time of the Russian
onslaught, the Finnish parlia-
ment consisted of IS social
democrats, 81 agrarians, % con-
servatives and only eight fas-
cists. 1t was completely con-
trolled by a social-democratic-
agrarian coalition, i. e., union
of workers and peasants repre-
sentatives. History evidences
that this is the sort of govern
ment most conducive to progress
in an industrially backward
country, and Finland was rapid
ly advancing culturally and in
social and labor legislation.
In Finland, the production of
lumber is the only important in
dustry. There are no large land
holders. Mannerheim and the
other white guardists" were
deprived of their war-won
estates along with their polit-
ical power. Reaction will prob
ably come as the result of war,
possibly through foreign inter-
vention; but facts doom to
derision those fatuous few who
still echo Stains claim that this
farmer-worker government rep
resenting 100000 Firms in
some way threatened or con-
spired against mighty Russia,
and so must be crushed.
