By the Assocjoted Press

CHAMPAIGN, Ill, Nov. l.
Michigan's fiery blend of passing
and running cut through dogged
Illinois 14-7 today as the unde-
feated Wolverines gained their
sixth football triumph in a charge
to the Big Nine title and the ac-
companying Rose Bowl trip.
Chalmers Bump Elliott of
nearby Bloomington, III, who passed
up the Illinois campus to Join his
brother, Pete. at Michigan, was the
driving force in the Wolverines two
touchdowns In the first half. After
Gene Derricotte had herded Michi-
gan So yards only to tumble away
the ball on the IA at the offset of
the opening period, Elliott helped
his team shake off the disappoint-
ment by streaking rs yards for a
touchdown with Dwight Eddleman's
punt. End Bob Mann bulldozed the
path with a vicious block as the
Bloomington blaster % scampered
down the sidelines.
Illinois tied the score in the first
80 seconds of the second period
Fullback Russ Steger broke loose
for a 54-yard sprint before Pete
Elliott caught him on the Is. Perry
Moss rif1ed FIVE yards to Art Dufel-
meier and finally the Illini reached
the 1-yard stripe with the aid of 6
5-yard offside infraction. From
there Steger rolled over the top ol
the Michigan line to score.
Bob Chappuis was instrumental
in the Wolverines decisive touch.

sofas Gophers waited until the
fourth quarter before unleasing a
scoring attack that netted three
touchdowns and a safety to put to-
gether a 80 to victory over Pitts
burg in a non-conference football
game today. A crowd OF 56,324
watched in 52-degree weather.
= After scoring late in the first
period, the Gophers made hard work
of smothering Pittsburgh's passing
attempts and holding them on the
ground. I
Only once, late in the second pc
riod, did Pittsburgh threaten. Half
backs Louis Cecconi and Carl
Depasqua did some fancy running
after being unable to find receivers
for intended passes. But the attack
died when Depasqua was caught be-
hind the line Of scrimmage as the

Only those farmers who plant
within their 1947 potato acreage
will be eligible for 1947 price
support. Each farmer who had a
potato acreage goal established
for his farm has been notified of
his acreage goal. The goal for
all other farms, whether notified
or not, is 20 acres.
Mr.. Hooks points out that in
order to avoid what happened to
a lot of farmers who had potatoes
last year, they should apply to
the A.A.A. Office for Government
price support. This should be
done as soon as the farmer has
finished planting and not later
than April Is as some one will
have to visit each farm for which
price support is requested in or
der to determine the potato acre
age.
To date, the support price ha:
not been announced but it vii
be 90 percent of the parity price
on potatoes as determined b!
