3 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Minnesota-Iowa, Ohio-Northwestern Games Feature Big Ten Si T oday's Games May Determine Big TenHopes Upset Of Iowa Would Be Michigan Hope In Race For Championship Coach Ossie Solem's Hawkeyes will be on the spot this afternoon when tle Hawkeyes buck up against a young and tough Gopher eleven at Minneapolis in the feature game in the Big Ten. With two victories to their credit in the conference, the Hawkeyes will be attempting to make it three straight over Bierman's Minnesota eleven. At the same time, the Go- phers will be trying to prove that their victory over the Pitt Panthers last Saturday was no fluke. Weight Versus Strategy The game will be a battle of a pow- erful and heavy Iowa machine against a lighter, but more polished opponent. Solem's line and back- field will outweigh the Gophers by several pounds, but Bierinan has de- veloped two fine quarterbacks in Glen Siedel and Babe LeVoir and their generalship may more than offset the superior power of ..the Hawkeyes. Since 1891, the two teams have met on the gridiron a total of 26 times. Minnesota has been victorious in 18 of these battles, Iowa winning eight. The last victory for the Hawkeyes was in 1929 when they eked out a 9 to 7 win. In 1931 and 1932, the Gophers were easy winners by scores of 34 to 0 and 21 to 6. The Iowa touchdown in last year's game came in the waning minutes of the final period. Wildcats Attempt Comeback At Columbus, the Wildcats of Northwestern will be attempting to make up for >a disastrous start against Iowa in the first game of the year by a victory over Ohio State. Last week, Hanley's squad clicked for the first time this year and crushed Indiana, 25 to 0, and they should be at their peak for today's contest. Just what effect Michigan's bruis- ing victory over the Buckeyes last week has had will be demonstrated today. The highly touted Ohio line and backfield .met more than their match in the Wolverines and the set- back may demoralize them for the rest of the season. Purdue's gridders, .who were somewhat checked by a tie with Min- nesota two weeks ago, will be after their second Big Ten victory over Wisconsin. The Badgers were watch- ing Dick Crayne too much last Sat- urday and Joe Laws sneaked through them to aid in an Iowa victory. But Spears' outfit is by no means weak and should give Purdue's "dozen threat" backfield plenty of trouble before the final gun sounds. Coach Bob Zuppke of Illinois is Varsity Cross Country Team Opposes State Coach Ken Doherty sends his cross-country team against a strong Michigan State team this morning at East Lansing in attempting to gain his second win of the season, having swamped Western State last week. Doherty has named Captain Bob Ostrander, Rod Howell, John Clarke, Jack Childs, Dick McManus, Smith and Lummond to start for the Wol- verines. The meet will be the first one for Rod Howell, younger brother of Bill Howell who ran the distances last year, since he has not been able to get into proper condition until this week due to a recent illness. Capt. Ottey Leads State State is led by Capt. Tom Ottey, who last spring gained an enviable reputation for himself as a middle distance runner. Ottey, who has been off form in State's one previous meet with Butler, has returned to form and last week broke his own course record for the four mile run in 20:38. State supporters also received en- couragement in the performances of Otto Pongrace, who last year ran on the formidable State two-mile relay team, and Eddie Bechtold, sopho- more ace, both of whom have upset Ottey's old four-mile mark of 21:07.3. Other members of the State team will be John Hammer, Walter Hertz- ler, Charles Dennis, Bob Gardiner and Ralph Small. GAME TO BE BROADCAST The Michigan-Chicago game this afternoon will be broadcast over stations KYW and WGN, Chicago at 3:00 p. m. Ann Arbor time. going to get an opportunity to scout Michigan in their game with Chi- cago at Stagg Field as the Illini are not scheduled today. Indiana, who has won one, lost two and tied one so far this season, will also be idle. M.S.C., Orange Tilt Close In the other two games of impor- tance in the Mid-West, Notre Dame will be entertaining Pitt in their sec- ond Western invasion in succession and Michigan State will meet Syra- cuse in one of the outstanding inter- sectional games of the day. Last Saturday, Syracuse managed to defeat Cornell by a score of 14 to 7. The Wolverines defeated the Big Reds, 40 to 0 and State 20 to 6. By comparative scores, then, it looks as though the Spartans were two touchdowns better than the Eastern outfit. Syracuse, however, is consid- ered one of the strongest teams in the East and the game at East Lan- sing should be a thriller. Game To Be Pictured By Grid Graph Board At Union Rams, On Home AN AField, Favorites CHIGANO aCHICAGO 4 Over Alabamans Sport Program F Women Is O tli To day's Battles In East1 Will Eliminate Several Undefeated Contenders" Two games on today's Eastern grid card stand out as "naturals" among a host of battles that should do much to clarify the National race. "Sleepy" Crowley's Fordham Rams will attempt to keep their slate clean in a much-heralded battle with Ala- bama's Crimson Tide. The former Michigan State coach is counting on Dankowsky, Fordham half, to sup- ply the winning punch. Alabama, un- defeated to date, has a well-coordi- nated bunch of sophomores. The Rams are given the nod by virtue of playing at home. Yale-Army Big Feature Yale vs. Army is the other Eastern giant killer on today's program. Cap- tain Bob Lassiter will lead another of the nation's undefeated elevens against a determined service outfit starring Jack Buckler and Captain "Jabo" Jablonsky. The cadets are slightly favored because of a superior line. Horse Show Gymkhana, the annual fallrid show, to be presented by co-ed ric enthusiasts will take place this ternoon at the Fair Grounds.

In a practice game preparator their tournament games in Mich and national championship races Ann Arbor Hockey Club nosed the seniors, 1 to 0. A small edition of the Grid Graph is shown recording a theoretical play in today's game. The lighted bulbs show that the ball is Michigan's on third down, 23 yds to go. The play is a forward pass, Petoskey to Ward, who was tackled by Wells, left end for Chicago. The figures on the miniature gridiron indicate the successive positions of the ball on each part of the play. In the order shown here the ball was passed from center (1) to Petoskey who came around and passed it from the 45 yd. line (2) to Ward on the 30 yd. line (3) Ward then advanced the ball to the 22 yd. line where Wells downed him (4). The Grid Graph may be seen in the Union ballroom this afternoon, admission 25 cents. DIAY &. PDIAY -By AL NEWMAN Another Consensus ... THE FOLLOWING IS THE Con- sensus of opinion on the part of. the five assistant sports editors re- garding the outcome of Saturday's big grid contests throughout the na- tion; the name of the team predicted to win will appear with the number of votes out of a possible five: Michigan (5) vs. Chicago Iowa vs. Minnesota (3) Northwestern vs. O. S. U. (5) Purdue (5) vs. Wisconsin Syracuse vs. M. S. C. (3) Pitt (5) vs. Notre Dame U. S. C. (5) vs. California Carnegie Tech.

MARTIN AND MR. BIRD are the big dissenters this week, each differing from the Consensus four times. The first tie prediction of .the season was turned in by Bird, who picked Dartmouth and Harvard to end the game all even. This tie predicting is pretty tough stuff since if either team wins, you lose. How- ever, if the prediction is correct, it counts double. I am forced to differ with the Con- sensus myself. Personally, I cannot feature Navy beating anybody this year. . . even Penn. However, let it go. Maybe I'm wrong aagin. And I am also wondering about that se- lection of Minnesota over Iowa. How- ever, if that one is reversed, the Iowa game looms as plenty tough for the Wolverines, and I think it will be. Sale Of Grove And Other A's Denied By Mack PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 27. -(R)- Old Man Rumor is again selling the star performers of the Philadelphia Athletics, but Connie Mack says the buyers and traders have not taken him in on the deals. The latest reports have it that the A's are selling Robert Moose Grove, left-handed pitching ace, for $200,- 000; Second Baseman Max Bishop and possibly another pitcher. All during the last playing season Connie Mack denied reports of the impending sale of this or that player. They included such other stars as Catcher Mickey Cochran and Jimmy Foxx, major Ieague home run king and American league batting cham- pion. "There's nothing to the report about Grove," said Mack. "Tomor- row it will be somebody else. We'll have our whole club sold before the season starts. I hope they get plenty of money for us in these trades. We need it. "I won't be put on the spot," said Mack today commenting on all the reports. Georgia, undefeated, ranks as fa- vorites over New York U's Violets. The Red Raiders gained over 200 yards from scrimmage last week while the Violets were losing to Col- gate by one touchdown. The Navy is on the skids this year and will have nothing potent to throw against Penn's strong outfit. Holy Cross Given Edge Brown is conceded to have a tricky offense but experts say that Holy Cross will beat them by sheer force of numbers. Dartmouth is handicapped by a long casualty list this week-end but is still given the nod over Harvard. People are beginning to realize that the Ramblers from South Bend ain't what she used to be and are picking them on the 'short end of scores these days. Notre Dame will have to click better than she has at any time this year if she expects to beat Pitt, at South Bend. Ohio State Squad Stands By Coach COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 27.-()-On the eve of their homecoming game with Northwestern, 20 senior class- men on the Ohio State University football squad today issued a state- ment attacking a State representative and former Ohio assistant coach, Grant Ward, and demanding he be barred from broadcasting the game over the school's station. At the same time, the 20 players expressed confidence in Head Coach Sam Willaman and his staff. Yes- terday Athletic Director L. W. St. John also expressed, confidence in Willaman's ability. For the last two years Ward has been conducting a campaign to oust Willaman as director of football by attacking his policies and coaching ability. The campaign reached its peak this week when, writing in the Ohio State Journal, he criticized the coaching staff for the team's failure to defeat Michigan.
