Agase Shines
As Minnesota
Falters 20-13
Purdue Wins First Game
When Pick's Attempted
Conversion Kick Fails
CHAMPAIGN, Ill.. Oct. 10.- ()-
Minnesota's two-year supremacy over
its rivals in the Western Conference
came to a stunning end today when
a lowly-regarded Illinois team forged
a 20 to 13 decision before a riotous
Homecoming throng of 24,276 spec-
tators in Memorial Stadium.
The alert, viciously-charging Illini
scored in the second period on a 35
yard run by guard Alex Agase with a
ball stolen from the hands of the
Gophers' star, Bill Daley. They used
a Minnesota concoction-a double
lateral-to go ahead 13 to 7 in the
third period. And after Minnesota
tied it in the final quarter, Illinois
won the game when Agase plunged
onto a loose ball in the end zone for
his second touchdown.
The loss was Minnesota's second
straight-the Gophers bowed to the
Iowa Seahawks a week ago, 7 to "6.
And it was the third straight triumph
for the Illini, who apparently have
started a gridiron renaissance under
a new head coach, Ray Eliot.
The teams rated nearly even in sta-
tistics, such as first downs, Illinois 7,
Minnesota 9; yards rushing, Illinois
120, Minnesota99; passes completed,
Illinois 4, Minnesota 5. In the end it
was the superb play of the Illinois
line, five of whose players performed
the entire 60 minutes, that spelled the
difference. There were nine Minne-
sota fumbles, and they hurt the Go-
phers plenty.
Purdue Wins First
EVANSTON, Ill., Oct. 10.- (W)-
Purdue's battered football forces,
twice defeated, bounded back with
vengeance today to upset the highly
favored Northwestern eleven, 7 to 6,
before 33,000 spectators.
Allen Pick, kicking hero of North-
western's 3 to 0 triumph over high
scoring Texas a week ago, slid off the
bench in the last fleeting 50 seconds
of the game in an attempt to score
at least a tie, but his toeing. effort
was blocked. Barry French, Purdue's
charging right tackle, smashed
through and smothered the ball after
it had gone no further than two feet
off Pick's shoe.
The game was the opening Western
Conference conflict for both teams,
and it was Elmer Burnham's initial
Big Ten triumph as the successor of
Mal Elward as Purdue's head coach.
Indiana Triumphs
LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 10.-- ()-In-
diana turned two Nebraska fumbles
into quick touchdowns today to beat
Nebraska 12 to 0 before 24,000 fans.
The first Indiana scoring push
started from the Nebraska 27 after
Dale Bradley, all Big Six Conference
halfback, fumbled and end Pete Pihos
fell on the ball.
Alsab Whips Whirlaway
NEW YORK, Oct. 10.- ()- Mrs.
Al Sabath's Alsab won the 2% mile
New York Handicap at Belmont to-
day, as Warren Wright's Whirlaway
-finished third.

COACH FRITZ CRISLER stepped into the Michigan dressing room. He had
just been across the runway in the Seahawk quarters offering his con-
gratulations to Bernie Bierman, the iron-haired mentor of the Naval power-
house.
He walked into the middle of the room and took a quick look around to
satisfy himself that his team had come through the battle without any cas-
ualties. Then he planted himself near the wall, and started to answer the
questions fired at him by the clustering group of reporters.
"Yes," he said in response to one query, "that Seahawk bunch be-
longs among the great teams. It's one of the best I've ever seen, and
offhand I can't name a better one."
THEN SOMEBODY ASKED him about his own team. Crisler gave the in-
quisitor a big smile and replied, "I'm so proud of these boys I could bust.
They played a great game, a really great game. They fought every minute
and they lost only because they were up against a superior bunch. I'm proud
of each and every one of them, and I think if we had some reserve line
strength we would have given the Seahawks a much better battle. But they
were too good, too deep in reserves for us. They had fresh men in there all
the time, while our boys played practically the whole game. Yessir, this is a
great gang."
S* * *
BERNIE BIERMAN was lounging against the side of a truck right outside
the Cadet dressing room. He was enjoying a cigarette when the reporters
flocked around him. As usual, he didn't have too much to say, but he an-
swered all questions.
"I wouldn't know how to rate this team of mine," he said, "It's too early
for that. We looked good today, and we were up against a good team too. Be-
lieve me, I was plenty worried during that first quarter when Michigan was
pushing us all over the place. We had too much reserve power for them,
though, and I guess that's the story. They ought to go places in the Confer-
ence."
When asked who was the best player on the field in his opinion,
Bierman promptly named Elmer Madar, Wolverine end who scored the
second Michigan touchdown and blocked a Seahawk extra point try.
"They said he wasn't supposed to be the best in the world, but he was
excellent today. He caused us a lot of trouble," was Bierman's comment.
Bierman said that the turning point of the game was in the second
quarter when Dick Fisher started to fling those passes to Mal Kutner.
"That's what did it for us. It started us going, and say, can't that Kutner boy
catch them."
* * * *
DRIFTWOOD AND SPLINTERS: Harlin Fraumann, Wolverine end of last
year who started for the Seahawks yesterday, said that this Seahawk
team is the best by far of any he has ever seen . . . that was a sentiment
freely expressed by the writers in the press box too.
Merv Pregulman has played only two losing games in his career...
both of them were against Bierman coached outfits... last year it was
Minnesota, this year the Cadets ... his team, Lansing Central, never
lost a game during his three year high school tenure.
Ed Jankowski, Seahawk fullback, was still groggy in the dressing room
after the tilt'. . . he was hit hard by Pregulman and Al Wistert and it com-
pletely knocked him out ... he formerly starred for the New York Giants.
Mal Kutner, the sensational end of the Cadets, is rated second only to
Don Hutson of the Green Bay Packers when it comes to snagging passes ...
those who have seen Kutner before claim that Wolverine Don Robinson ac-
complished the unbelievable when he pulled the fleet end down from be-
hind in the second period ... previously that had never happened to Kutner.
Wisconsin Remains Undefeated

DETROIT, Oct. 10.- (P)- Inter-
scholastic athletic competition be-
tween Detroit's public high schools
will be abolished at the close of the
current football season to be replaced
for the war's duration by a compul-
sory physical fitness program for the
52,000 boys and girls, School Supt.
Warren E. Bow announced today.
The order, Bow said, was issued un-
der blanket authority given him by
the Board of Education and has the
approval of all high school principals.
It was believed the first act of its kind
in an American metropolitan com-
munity.
The new fitness program will be
compulsory for students of all grades.

MADISON, Wis., Oct. 10. -( )-
Wisconsin's up and coming gridiron
mechanics dismantled Missouri's
model "T" in an exciting intersec-
tional football game today. Final
score of this first game between the
schools was 17 to 9.
The Badgers, dark horse candidates
for Western Conference honors, spot-
ted the Big Six champions two points
on a safety in the first minute of
play, but counted a field goal at the
end of the first period, and never
were headed.
