conversion was good.
In the first half Michigan clearly
showed the effect of its bruising battle
with the Gophers. Players failed to
carry out their assignments on occa-
sion, and there were glaring defensive
oversights. The whole team seemed
physically off key.
With only four an a half minutes
gone in the first quarter Yale pulled
its initial coupe. The ball was on the
Eli 45 when Humphrey, who pitches
on the Yale baseball team, began to
chuck those passing bullets.
Passes Start Clicking
After two unsuccessful tries, he fin-
ally shot a beautiful toss to halfback
Johnny Miller who snared the ball at
the sideline and travelled to the
Michigan 35 before Phillips and Nich-
olson brought him down.
With Michigan spreading out its
defense, Humphrey employed a strate-
gy at this point, sending speedy Al
Wilson through the center of a split
Michigan line. The play was a reverse,
Bill Snavely to Wilson and carried to
the 30 yard line where Arch Kodros
made the stop.
Before the Wolverines' baffled de.
fense could decide what to expect,
Humphrey faded back and tossed a
beauty to Moody in the end zone.
Moody circled behind Harmon and
the toss carried 48 yards in the air.
Wilson's attempted conversion was
wide.
Michigan Threatens
Michigan threatened to score in the
initial period but the stout hearted
Yale forwards withstood the attack.
Nicholson r e c o v e r e d Wilson's
fumble on Yale's 29 and Michigan's
sporadic attack began to slowly func-
tion. Harmon made it look easy on a
cut back, crashing to the nine yard
line on the very first play for a first
down.
A Phillips to Evashevski lateral lost
a yard, but Purucker gained five on
the next try, smashing over the weak
side tackle to the Eli five. Once more
Purucker hit that right tackle but big
Bill John stopped him after a scant
two yard gain. It was fourth down and
three yards to the goal line. Harmon
received the ball, faked a pass, and
plowed over left guard but he wound
up one yard short and Yale took the
ball on downs.
As Miller stood deep in his end
zone to punt, the giant Siegel came
blasting through to block the kick.
The ball bounced off his chest and
over the end zone for an automatic
two points for Michigan.
In the closing minutes of the quar-
ter, Yale moved 38 yards in four plays
one of the a successful Humphrey
pass, to rest on the Michigan 42 as
the period ended.p
Yale Scores Again
They scored just three minutes
later, Humphrey started it by again6
taking advantage of Michigan's1
spread defense to fake a pass andl
smash through right tackle to the
Michigan 30, where Howard Mehaffeyp
snowed him under.
Yale madenodbones about whatl
they were going to do. Two Humphrey
passes fell incomplete, but the thirdI
time he pitched a beauty to Wilson
on the flank and Al moved to the
Michigan 20 for a first down.
Once more the Yale quarterback
faded, found Art Dyess free on theE
seven and slung a beauty right into
his hands for the fourth first down
in succession.
A Humphrey pass and a Humphrey
run failed, but the third time found
success and six more Yale points.
Moody was the receiver again as he
slipped behind Fred Trosko and Paul
Kromer to snare the toss in the end
;:one.
Wilson Converts
Wilson's conversion was good, and
Michigan 'was 11 points behind.
The Wolverines overcame that lead1
however in that final half which
added somewhat of a zest to a dullP
afternoon. The greaterpart of the
game seemed to be spent in discus-s

sions between players and officials
who apparently could not fathom
some of the mid-western rules thor-
oughly.

Pingel Leads-
State To Win
OverOrange
Spartan Back Wins Duel
With Sidat-Singh; First'
Defeat For Syracuse
EAST LANSING, Mich., Oct. 22-
(~)-In a breath taking struggle that
developed into an individual battle
between Johnny Pingel and Wilmeth
Sidat-Singh, Michigan State downed
Syracuse, 19 to 12, today to topple the
Orange from the ranks of the na-
tion's undefeated major college foot-
ball elevens.
Pingel, Michigan State's veteran
halfback, and Sidat-Singh, Syracuse's
much-heralded star, either had a part
in or set up all of the touchdowns.
Pingel put State in the lead when;
he shot a scoring pass to big Ole Nel-
son in the end zone in the second
period. He counted the last two touch-
downs almost single handed, fighting
his way 23 yards for a third period,
score and going 26 yards on an off-
tackle smash in the final quarter to
make the Spartan margin safe.
Held in check in the first half, Sid-
at-Singh connected in the third period
for a 32-yard gain that ended on the
State one and a subsequent touch-
down and tossed a 45-yard scoring
pass to Phil Allen on the opening play
of the last quarter..
Sidat-Singh was the better passer"
today, completing four of 12 tosses
for 121 yards, but Pingel was the
superior runner as he averaged better
than six yards a crack in gaining 115
yards in 19 tries. Sidat-Singh gained
but 38 yards running while Pingel
connected on four of six tosses for 39
yards. In the end the ground game
proved superior to the pass.
A tricky 33-mile an hour wind that
swept the length of the field, placed
one team at a distinct disadvantage
in each period.

verines were a team of destiny, cul-

was unbeatable from here on. Theo
slogan "On to Yale" was interpreted
as "On to a Yale Victory" and though
the near-defeat left the campus still

a bit puzzled.
But the fact that Penn beat this

made the campus a little skeptical

'Ti ghting Irish'
Beat Carnegie
Last Period Touchdown
Gives Irish 7-0 Win
SOUTH BEND, Oct. 22.-(P)-
Notre Dame, off on another march
for national championship honors.
relegated Carnegie Tech to the ranks
of the defeated today in the most
bruising encounter the Fighting Irish
have engaged this season.
Notre Dame won, 7 to 0, but only
after a savagely fought game that
kept the crowd of 25,000 in an uproar.
Third string players accomplished
what the regulars failed to do.
Outweighed and outmanned, the
Scots waged a heroic battle for three
furious periods to outplay Notre
Dame. Then, after four minutes of
olay in the fourth, Notre Dame
Launched a touchdown drive that was
set up in midfield when John Get-
chell, the referee, gave the ball to
Notre Dame. The decision wound up
with the Carnegie players and even
Coach William Kern swarming
:round him to dispute it vigorously.
The fourth period opened with
Tech making first down on its own
38 but failing thenand Notre Dame
taking the ball on downs on the Tech
46 yard line. Getchell told the.invad-
ers' quarterback that it was third
down, then reversed himself.
