Problem Is
Keeping The
Score Down
BY HARRY GRAYSON
NEA Service Sports Editor

Northwestern Is expected to run
out of the luck which has marched
hand and hand with is pluck when
a Minnesota varsity which lives up
to the title, Giants of the North"
invades Evanston, Nov. 2.
In avenging its 1889 defeat by
Iowa, Minnesota revealed that 1t
had vastly more than the power
turned on To repel Ohio State.
The Minneapolis machine did
not attempt a single pass against
the Buckeyes, but on confusing
optional plays, Bruce Smith threw

Bill deCorrevont will be back
with the Wildcats after being kept
on tie sideline for two weeks by
a sprained ankle, but the Golden
Gophers appear to have a little too
much Of everything, including
nlanpower, for both Northwestern
and Michigan, whichc they tackle
in Minneapolis. Nov. 9. The VOL
verines are wise in resting up for
that one.
In other Western Conference en-
gagements, Ohio State finally
bumps into an outfit it can beat
in Indiana at Columbus, Iowa
should get back on the right track
against Purdue in Iowa City, and
Wisconsin is likely to shade Illi-
noiS In Madison.
Michigan State is the choice
over Kansas State at East Lansing.
PENN AND FORDHAM ARE
LIKELY TO BOUNCE BACK
Yankee Stadium Is sold out for
the Notre Army snow. The
Cadets will march, and Elmer Lay
den will have tough time keeping
the score down.
Pennsylvania isn't as bad as it
looked at times against Michigan,
and should get over Nays young
and up-and-coming array in Phil
daelphia.
Fordham figures to get going
once more against North Carolina
in New York, South Carolina may
be bit overmatched in squaring
off with Penn State at State Col
lege, and Villanova is too we'll

phia. In other intersectional scraps,
it is Detroit over Tulsa in Detroit

but 1t will be the Big Red by

In Syracuse, underpublicized
Georgetown is lopsided choice
to make it % victories and a tie

Dave Allerdice and Princeton
should take care of Harvard in

to score one of its infrequent VIC
tories over Yale in the Bowl.
Duquesne gets the nod over
Marquette in Pittsburgh, Temple

There is not much reason TO

Northwestern Chances;

New York, Nov. 1.-(UP)-Fifteen
Of the 16 undefeated, united major
football teams risk their perfect
records this weekend and the list
Is bound to be trimmed by at least
one in the meeting between the Big
Ten Titans, Minnesota and North
western, at Evanston.
This is the only game in the
country sending two teams with I'M
hleinished records together. Michi-
gan Is idle this week and Of the 10
remaining perfect records, 10 are
favored to be preserved and the
other three have at least an even
chance.
Minnesota, a gradually develop
Ing eleven that has hurdled four
major bstacles-Washington, Ne
braska, Ohio State and Iowa--is a
slight choice to knock Northwest
ern from the select circle, but If Bill
De Correvont is recovered from his
injured ankle, 1t promises 10 be close
from start to finish. Even without
De Correvont last week Northwest
ern was impressive with a last half
rally to lick Indiana by two touch
downs.
Navy, Detroit and Clemson seem
10 be the ones who will have the
hardest fights to maintain their
standings. Although the Middies
are favored sligtly over Penn, there
is a big difference of opinion and
several solicitors feel that If the
Quakers were not too badly Grip
pied in the Michigan game last
week, they will bounce back to di-
vert Navy from the undefeated, I'M
tied road.
Eastern pickers are sticking with
Detroit 10 beat Tulsa, but If the
Oklahomans rise to the heights as
they did to scuttle T. G. u, last
week, Detroit will have TO be mighty
good to win.
Clemson, with five straight wins,
gets the call over Tulane, but the
Greenies were slow getting started
and are improving each Saturday
While comparative scores are often
misleading, 1t might be remembered
that Clemson walloped Wake Forest
800 and Wake Forest previously had
beaten North Carolina 1910. Last
week a blocked punt IN the final
minutes enabled Tulane to score a
one point victory over North Caro-
lima.

 Surprises

SEATTLE, Feb 12. - The back door is as good as any. just so you get in, and Ohio State used the tradesman's entrance to become not only the Big Ten football champion but the nations 1889 leader in of fense as well.
 Figures compiled by the American Football Statistical Bureau showed that Ohio State-Winner of the Big Ten title even as it lost its last game to Michigan-took top position on offense while two leaders during most of the season, Tennessee and Southern California, ran into tro- ble in the closing weeks.
 The Bureaus figures showed these other bets"
 Defensive team: San Jose (Califo State. Ball carrier-passer: Kenny Wash l ington, U.CL.A.
 Pass catcher: Ben Kavanaugh, Louisiana State.
 Punting team: Auburn. The AFSB, set up to provide a yardstick for college football per- formances through the medium of statistics compiled by standard system, has just come up with fi- nal tabulations in all branches of play after months of wading through figures turned in from practically every major college. This is how they stacked up in the various departments: Tennessee slipped to second place in the total offense department mainly because the Vols wound up with a net loss from rushing against Vanderbilt outhern California skidded to fourth after its 9-7 win over Washington and 0-0 tie with U. c. L. A. Mississippi eventually slipped into third place.
 Average Is Lowe-
 The Bureau ranks total offense team leaders on the average per game. Ohio States mark was 309.3, well below Fordham's 341.6 in 1888 and Colorado's 3754 in 1887. Ten nessee averaged 308.3 yards, Missis- sippi 307.8 and Southern Cal. BOT. Wake Forest was close fifth with 306.2.
