If Illinois can score a victory over the Buckeyes in the huge me- morial stadium here tomorrow, the Indians will have a clear claim to the Western Conference championship. But the Scarlet and Gray team is a much greater obstacle for Zuppke's cohorts to hurdle than the respective records of the two teams seem to in- dicate. Since 1915 these two elevens have proved a mutual jinx for each other. Time and again the team f a- vored to win has gone down in defeat before the lay of its weaker rival, RIVAL CAPTAINS 1 A2 l)ETROT, Nov. 18.-Muskegon ihigh iThree Of Five Western Conference school and Detroit Nort hwester, two Gauues Today Involve Ownership 'Of Traditional Symbols prep elevens that usually dominate ..e East ' is =1 t r I / + 4 \ T" r ., u j is G .

Stagg's battered but hopeful Maroons. The Wisconsin gridders were away at an early hour, having taken the last stiff workout of the year at Camp Randall Field last evening. They are scheduled to put up at a south side hotel at noon and will dash through a short practice at Stagg Field in the early afternoon. The Cardinal coaches were not op- timistic regarding the outcome of to- morrow's clash with Chicago, mainly because too many of the dependables are incapacitated.

Neither of these bitter rivals has won two games in a row from itsy opponent since the inception of their meeting on the gridiron. Illinois2 romped away with the 1914 game, 37-0, the 1915 contest ended in a 3-3 tie, and since that year the teams have alternated in winning from each other. Last year Ohio State defeated the Illini, 7-6. Consequently Illinois is due to be returned the winner tomor- row. All of which goes to show the futility of "doping" the outcome. Whichever team wins tomorrow will be upsetting precedent. t On paper Coach Zuppke posseses a stronger outfit than Coach Wilce. But games are not decided on paper.
