PITTSBURGHERS PLUS B. DUDLEY
 PEP PRO LOOP
Settlers Out to Get Even at Philadelphia Sunday;
 Giants Meet Bears

Chicago, Oct. 17.-(SpeciaD The matter of the Pittsburgh Steelers will come up for definite denoue- ment in Philadelphia tomorrow.
 After the Steelers had upset New York, 13 to 10, a fortnight ago, the wags and most of the experts dub- bed them one-week team. The Steelers didn't complain. They didn't even deny it. They merely stepped out and made it an eight day week by whipping Brooklyn, 2 to 0, the following Sunday.
 The week definitely is up now and tomorrow the Steelers attempt to avenge an earlier defeat by the Eagles, who have not been able to win since opening with a A to IA triumph over the Pittsburghers on Sept. 13. If they succeed 1t will be about time that they be given prom inent mention in National Football league championship calculations.
 Bill Dudley and Company, who hadn't yet gotten themselves geared to major league football at, the time of the Philadelphia meeting, can move up into a tie for second place in the eastern division with a victory tomorrow, provided, of course that the Chicago Bears do not throw down al the experts by dropping a decision to the New York Giants. The Giants invade Chicago.
 In other games Washington moves to Brooklyn where Coach Red Flaherty expects the Dodgers to play "the game they were think ing about last week when they should have been thinking about Dudley" The Chicago Cardinals tackle the Lions in Detroit and Green Bay is host to the Cleveland Rams.
 Rockies
 New York arrived in the loop to- day ready to depend upon rockies to carry the offensive burden against the Bears, who have yet to go through 8 game without sur- rendering at least two touchdowns. HereaboutS there is some surprise at the part rockies are expected to play in the Giant offense. Western professional fans seem to remeIn- Der that Tuffy LeemanS is still on the New York roster, and when ever they think of Tuffy Leemans they think of trouble. Leemans helped not at all to allay their fears when he threw three touchdown passes last week. The Bears have not been overly successful against passes and what's more they have not had look yet at the Giants widely publicized O'Neal Adams, a rookie end from Arkansas.
 Washington, with the best defen- sive team in the league, and Sammy Baugh, will find Brooklyn worthy opponent and this game undoubted- ly will be the best of the lot or the days schedule. The Dodgers were hurt more spiritually thar physically last Sunday and will bt in a mood to make amends. Theil only casualty against PittSburgf was Center Tom Robertson. wht JdulLLIIN up oll e1A hA' DN" "A-~ VI ready for the kickoff tomorrow. Packers "Hot"
 Cleveland will match its speed and the passing of Cherokee Jacl
 Jacobs (wllo turns out not to b'
 a Cherokee after all, but a ful
 blooded Creek) against the Pack CTS passing combine of 1sbell ant
 Hutson. Hutson three times in hi
 career has scored three touchdown
 against Cleveland, which alone l
 sufficient to make the Packers fee optimistic over the outlook.
 i. Detroit revealed great improve ment at Green Bay last week de
 spite a 38 to ' defeat and look
 to the Cardinals as an opportunit
 break into the win column for tn f first time The Lions, feeling nor . at home in a single wing, average' ' 6 yards per rush against the Pack CTS and took over second play l f the league on rushing with mar
 of 3.59 per attempt. Tomorrow ma
 be the Lions day.
