(IP) The panther, rpfral jungle cat and football team alike, is most dangerous when wounded; cornered, it bares its fangs for the last fight to the death. A mighty Notre Dame eleven, hailed the greatest In the land, found that out for the first time today as the Panthers of Pittsburgh, battered and groggy, lashed out, in a dying fourth-quarter effort that stunned the Green Grenadiers from South Bend, sent them reeling down to a 12-to-0 defeat, and chalked on the pages of football history one of the greatest upsets of all times.

BY W. BLAINE PATTON, Sports Editor The Star.

"DUTLER university's football eleven arose to the occasion of annual home-coming at the Fairview institution yesterday to add another upset victory to the long list of dope-splashing achievements on American gridirons during an eventful day. The Bulldogs outplayed the Baptists of Franklin in all departments of the game to win a richly deserved 14-0 triumph with the odds favoring the invaders. Just a week previously, bruised, battered and crestfallen, the Butler warriors limped off the field at Crawfordsville, whipped, 34-0, by Wabash, which was held to a scoreless tie SPRINT BY PURVIS FEATURES BATTLE Horstman and Moss Tally Other for Hoosiers Pardonner, Carter Also Star. BY FOSTER HAILEY, Associated Press Sports Writer. NEW YORK, Oct.

29. Purdue gave New York city a brilliant sample of Big Ten football today as it passed and ran over New York university for a 34-to-9 victory, handing the not-so-violent Violets their worst defeat since 1924, when Rutgers won, 34 to 7. A crowd of 25,000 saw the game. Scoring through the line and through the air, the Boilermakers were the masters of the New York team at every turn and cashed in on every scoring opportunity they had, running wild in the second quarter to tally three touchdowns and adding another in each of the tmra and fourth quarters. Big Roy Horstman and Paul Moss, brilliant end, each lugged across two of the Purdue scores and Duane Purvis tallied the other with a seventy-eight-yard run from scrimmage.

Paul Pardonner and his educated toe counted three points after touchdown on dropkicks before he turned the job over to less adept hands. Scores on Aerial PlajV Jack MacDonald scored the Violets' lone touchdown on a forty-five-yard run after receiving a pass from Bob McNamara and the Violets' other two points came in the final quarter, when Abe Itzkowitz blocked Moss's punt on the Purdue ten-yard line, Moss recovering behind his own goal line for a safety. Purdue started the game with Its "shock troops" in and New York took advantage of the weaker opposition to drive through to the twenty-yard line. Coach Noble Kizer started his first-string men into the play there and, after the Violet was held for downs, the Boilermakers started an uninterrupted march which carried seventy-nine yards to New York one-yard line at the end of the quarter. Purvis and Jim Carter, reserve halfback, were slicing off five to ten yards on nearly every Play.

On the first play of the second quarter Horstman went over for the first Purdue score. The Violets came raging back to score their lone marker on just two plays, Jim Tan- guay carrying the kickoff back to his own forty-yard line, from where McNamara tossed the scoring pass to MacDonald, but that was N. Y. last real offensive gesture. Lead Never in Danger.

Purvis made his brilliant run a moment later to give Purdue a lead that never again was threatened. Purvis was threatened but once on this seventy-eight-yard dash. Down near the N. Y. U.

thirty-yard line MacDonald made a dive for him, but was blocked out by Ed Ungers. The third Boilermaker touchdown was scored on an unusual play, Moss intercepting a pass from McNamara, partially blocked by Lowery, behind the violets' goal line. The Purdue end had put the Violets in the hole by punting the ball dead on N. Y. two-yard line.

It appeared as though McNamara, standing ten yards behind his own goal intended to kick, saw it would be blocked and attempted a pass. Purdue was content to rest on its laurels starting the third quarter, kicking on third down, but they had the scoring punch when the opportunity came. Pardonner recovered a fumble by Jack White, substitute Violet back, on N. Y. twenty-eight-yard line and on the second play Horstmann ran around his own left end for the score.

Moss, a brilliant all-round player all day, carried over the final Purdue touchdown, taking a pass from Carter on the Violet's twenty-yard CONTINUED ON PAGE 22. IRISH Yale, Dartmouth, 0. TO able heigfit with the mainspring tightly wound. Within seconds, th remnants of what had been a grent team were scattered all over the historical premises. Hob llogan, Panther quarterback, who was one of the two to finish who did nut start, snared one of Mike Koken's passes on his own twenty-seven-yard line as Notre Dame pressed as it always had been doing.

Warren Heller and Mike Sebastian ripped inside Notre Dame's tackles for a dozen yards between them. Isadore Weinstock, a burly fullback, burst through center on a beautiful spinner for fifteen to the Raider forty-five-yard line. Then Sebastian, a substitute from Sharon, who was taking the part of the ailing captain, Paul Reider, raced for Notre Dame's end. Defense Is Cut Down. One halfback blocked out Paul Host, Raider end and captain.

Sebastian sped for th far sideline. Quickly he cut back, stepping daintily out of the arms of three headlong tacklers, and his battered mates had time to get in front of them. With fiendish precision, they cut down the Notre Dame secondary and Sebastian dashed across the gosl without a hand having been laid upon him. It was an amazing shock to Notre Dame and the great throng as well, but there was more to come, swifter, almost, than it takes to tell. Passing desperately, as soon as he got his hands on the next kickoff, Al McGuff, a substitute Notre Dame halfback, hurled his second effort straight into the arms of Ted Dailey, one of Pitt's two mighty ends.

Dailey took the ball on a dead run as he came up from Notre Dame's twenty-five-yard line, and in a flash was over the goal. Both attempts at the extra point were blocked. Notre Dame Demoralized. Perhaps the strangest picture of all was the sight then of a Notre Dame team, its assurance and cohesion absolutely destroyed, passing wildly like a bunch of high school kids in a demoralized effort to come back. But the Panthers, exhausted, picking each other up laboriously after each play, had enough left to stop that kind of play and remain in Notre Dame territory until the final whistle.

Never before has a Notre Dame team of modern history been scored upon twice in one minute and nothing approaching it has happened to the Green Raiders since Southern California, last fall, caught Notre Dame in the last period and came from behind to overcome a two-touchdown lead and win, 16 to 14. With laterals and line drives working neatly, but for small gains, Notre Dame drove thirty-eight yards to Pitt's twenty-five-yard line in thil first quarter; marched and passed fifty to the Panther eighteen in the second quarter; drove forty yards to within eight of the goal in the third, and were pressing again after a forty-yard march in the fourth when the lightning struck. Almost at the start of the fourth CONTINUED ON PAGE 22. throws which covered thirty yards or more, but each time they Vailed to connect and the bpst the Wildcats were able to do with their aerial attack was a total of twenty-seven yards on two out of nine attempts. Gophers Gain 3.10 Yards.

Minnesota gained 330 yards to ninety-six for the Wildcats. The power of the Minnesota running attack was evidenced by its total gains from rushing of 2C6 yards to sixty-nine for Northwestern, while the Gophers also topped the Wildcats in aerial gains with sixty-four yards gained on five successful passes out of fourteen attempted. Northwestern threatened seriously only once except for the steady menace of its long aerial game. Al Kawal, a back, recovered the ball on Minnesota's forty-yard line after Lund fumbled in returning a punt early in the game. A series of gains gave the Wildcats the ball fifteen yards from the goal, its nearest approach of the day.

But Rentner fumbled and Minnesota's Bill Proffitt, substitute for the injured' Capt. Walter Hass, who did not enter the game, recovered for the Gophers. Just before the end of the first half, CONTINUED ON PAGE 22. 9 Ohio State, Wisconsin, 7. 14 to 0 Saluski Leads Scrappin' Hoosiers to 19-0 Victory Over Mississippi State.

BY T. E. APPLEGATE. BLOOMINGTON, Oct. 29.

(IP) A wild-running veteran halfback, Stanley Saluski of Chicago, slashed his way through a slowly yielding Mississippi State football team here today to give Indiana a 19-to-0 victory. Gaining an average of five yards each time he carried the ball, Saluski rammed through tackle holes opened by the Hoosier line to score touchdowns in the third and fourth quarters. Otis Edmonds, pile-driving fullback from Georgetown, 111., punched through the Southerners for yards when they needed and counted Indiana's first touchdown in the second period. The Mississippians, in former years coached by E. C.

Hayes, present Indiana mentor, fought back throughout the game, but gradually were worn down by the heavier, stronger Hoosiers. Frank Waits, 160-pound quarterback, was the spark of the visitors' attack, his passing and running presenting a constant scoring threat. Southerners Complete 7 Passes. Indiana resorted to its aerial attack only at intervals, making good two passes in five attempts for forty-five yards. The accurate tosses of Waits were caught seven times for a total gain of sixty-three yards.

The game was played on a cold, wind-swept gridiron before a shivering crowd of 3,500. A stiff wind from the west played havoc with punts, and the Hoosiers took advan tage of this to start their first two scoring drives. The second period Hoosier march started on Mississippi's thirty-five-yard line, after a punt into the wind. Saluski and Edmonds smashed their way through the line for the necessary yards, Edmonds carrying the ball to score. Late in the third quarter, the Hoosiers took Waits's punt on Mis sissippi's thirty-yard line, and after CONTINUED ON PAGE 22.

Oct. 28 (P) With its first string conquerors of Yale watching from the sidelines, Army sent forth a second team this afternoon which smothered William and Mary, 33 to 0. The Southerners fought valiantly to keep down the score, but the Soldiers seemed to gain strength as the Virginians, who defeated Navy earlier this season, weakened. Passes completed at psychological moments, coupled with the unabat-ing battering across tackle by Buckler, Stancook, Simon and Frentzel gave the Army opportunity to roll across five touchdowns. A crowd of about eighteen thou sand watched the game.

DEPAUW CRUSHES EARLHAM, 32 TO 0 Tigers Tally in Each Period Don Wheaton, Star Back, Is Spectator Rpecial in The Indianapolit Star. GREENCASTLE, Oct. 29. Scoring in every quarter, DePauw crushed Earlham's football team, 32 to 0, this afternoon on Blackstock field. The Methodists played the entire game without the services of Don Wheaton, Tiger backfield ace, who sat on the, bench with an injured ankle.

Ken Bradley, a sophomore, capably filled the shoes of the Old Gold flash at left half, executing two sweeping end runs that resulted in touchdowns. Ave, Fribley and Blake also crossed the goal line for the local collegians. Bradley booted the ball between the uprights for two additional points. Visitors Threaten Only Once. DePauw resorted principally to straight football, while the Quakers took to the air on numerous occasions.

The visitors threatened only once, just after the game got under way. A long forward pass placed the ball on the nine-yard line, but CONTINUED ON PAGE California (Pa.)

Driven like sheep before the charge of eleven shepherds in bright green, the Panthers reeled through three periods of a struggle that held a mammoth crowd of (15,000 in the huge stadium on Pittsburgh's highest hill breathless with fear for the home buys.

Irish Threaten Three Times. Three times, once in each scoreless quarter, the Panthers staggered back under the drive of a team they say in the mid-West is the best that ever came out of the Indiana university where Knute Rockne founded the greatest of modern football dynasties. Each time the effort was greater, the plight of the hapless defenders more desperate. Each time that Bittekand had been greater than any one had expected and the great crowd, huddled against the bitter wind that swept the field, seemed only to hope that from somewhere the Panthers would summon strength enough to keep the Raiders from the goal line up to the end. From somewhere came that strength and more.

Into one mighty thrust Pittsburgh suddenly hurled every ounce left In the battered bodies of eleven youngsters who had taken every bit of Notre Dame's pounding for three quarters, almost without a single relief.

Within the space of a single minute deep In the final quarter, the Panthers scored two touchdowns, and the cocky Green Raiders who had pranced so high dominating the play up to that moment fell apart like an expensive toy dropped from consider- Kirklin Conquers Special to The Indianapolii Star. KIRKLIN, Oct. 29 Led by Bob Price, husky fullback, the Kirk lin high school football team came from behind here this afternoon and conquered Cathedral of Indianapolis, 13 to 7.

Cathedral scored In the first quar ter when a Kirklin punt from the five-yard line went out of bounds only twenty-five yards from the goal. Seven plays netted the touchdown, with Rohr driving off-tackle for the last nine yards. He also added the extra point on a line plunge. Price retaliated for Kirklin in the second quarter, when he tallied after a forty-yard march and tied the score with a plunge for the extra point. Cathedral advanced to the three- yard line early in the third quarter, but Rohr fumbled, and Kirklin launched a counter-attack which resulted in its second touchdown at the CONTINUED ON PAGE 23.

Presenting the strongest array of talent that has been seen on the Wabash college field In many years, Miami university decisively defeated the Little Giants here this afternoon, 33 to 0. The visitors scored five touchdowns with a powerful offensive that swept Wabash aside in the first three periods. Miami opened the scoring the middle of the first quarter after two exchanges of punts. Four first downs were made in rapid succession, the drive ending when Fertig plunged through the line. Rodebush place kicked for the point and the period ended with Miami leading, 7 to 0.

Passing Attack Clicks. In the second quarter Fertig passed to Fulton for a touchdown after Miami had marched into Wabash territory on line smashes and end runs. The try for goal failed when Reiner broke through to block Rode-bush's kick. In the third period the visitors launched a successful arelal attack. CONTINUED ON PAGE 22.

It was an uphill fight for the Ne-braskans, who failed to make a first down in the first half, while a dazzling Kansas State offensive charged, faked and passed to eight first downs. With only two minutes to play, Boswell, halfback, took a back field pass and whirled around left end from the three-yard line, just edging over the goal. Masterson'a kick was low.

Michigan partly evened matters when Regeczi's low punt bounced over Bales's head. He chased the ball back of his goal line, but was trapped with it for a safety when Ward, Michigan end, met him at the goal line and threw him back. A blocked punt at Princeton's goal line in the third period put Michigan ahead. Williamson broke through and Kadlic's punt bounced off his chest. With both teams in mad pursuit of the ball, Bernard grabbed it and plunged over for the Wolverines' first touchdown.

Catches Pass to Score. Two fifteen-yard penalties for unnecessary roughness and a short punt paved the way for Michigan's second touchdown in the fourth quarter. With the running attack stopped, Newman dropped back and tossed a pass from the twenty-five-yard line over the goal line to Ward. No one was near the big Negro end as he took the toss, the first and only pass completed by Michigan. Score by Periods.

29. W) Minnesota unpacked a driving power house, attack, centering around big Jack Manders today, and swept to a 7-to-0 victory over Northwestern before 35,000 chilled fans. Four times the Gophers drove down the field, but in three cases the fighting Wildcats stopped them only five yards short of the goal. Success finally crowned the Gophers' effort when Fullback Manders, temporarily in the role of signal caller, changed he offensive strategy from running plays to passes. Reserve Wlngman Scores.

Starting from midfield, a pass from Pug Lund, halfback, to Robert Tenner, a substitute end, paved the way. The drive climaxed with another pass on fourth down with eighteen yards to go, with Tenner catching the ball on another of Lund's throws behind the goal line for the only touchdown. Manders place-kicked the extra point. Northwestern, which had the ball in its possession less than one-fourth of game time, came back with a desperate long passing attack with Pug Rentner, its star back, doing the throwing. Twice receivers were clear on ANN ARBOR, Oct.

29. (U.P.) An underrated Princeton football team battled the University of Michigan to the last gun here today, but lost, 14 to 7. The game was decided on breaks, and the Wolverines got most of them. A slashing fullback named James and a fine line had Michigan scrapping from behind for the first time this season. It was a new situation for the Wolverines, and it was not until the final period that they were able to carry the fight to Princeton territory consistently.

James Plays Feature Role. The Wolverines, if they expected an easy afternoon, were disillusioned quickly. In James, Princeton had the outstanding performer of the afternoon. Until he wearied in the last quarter he spent his time smashing through the Michigan line for Bize-able gains. He was a constant scoring threat and the center of a vicious, hard-running attack that gave Princeton the advantage in ground gained and first downs.

The downs were nine for Princeton end five for Michigan, and Princeton's total yardage was 194 to 131 for the Wolverines. The first of the succession of breaks which decided the game came.
