So is Duquesne. And the crowd well about 35,000 or 40,000 of the town's wild-eyed football partisans will tramp into the Stadium tomorrow to witness this duel between two of the city's undefeated and unscored-on elevens.

The Panthers are still the favorites but eager Duquesne followers are hoping for just one Defeat of Son tsiJ SMITH 10 Brings Death To Father By The United Press PATERSON, Oct. IS It was the first bout of the amateur series which opened in the Pater-son Armory last night. From a seat far back in the hall Eugene De Freest, 50, of Midland Park, N. shouted encouragement to his son, 16-year-old Allie, fighting in the 112-pound class against Alex Pielak, of Passaic, N. J.

Allie had won handily in his first appearance last week and it was Pielak's first start here. Father De Freest was confident his son would wi nagain. In the third round things went against Allie. Pielak knocked him down. Allie got up without waiting for a count and went down again.

He got up three times in all. The fourth time he stayed down. There was a commotion in the audience. Men were carrying a man to the dressing room. It was De Freest.

That fourth knockdown had been too much. De Freest died in an ambulance on the way to Patterson General Hospital. Dr. Lawrence Boylan, county physician, said he died of a heart attack. In his dressing room, dazed from the knockout and the blow of his father's death, Allie muttered: "Dad always had a weak heart." Chrysler Faces 'Game' Charges Special to The Pittsburgh Press BALTIMORE, Oct.

16 Walter P. Chrysler, Maryland financial and social leader and chairman of the board of the National Wild Life Institute, was involved here today with 26 others on charges of violation of the Federal game laws. Joseph B. Weaver, chief of the Bureau of Marine Navigation, was also charged. All were cited for violations of the migratory bird laws and ordered to appear Oct.

27 to answer charges. The charges carry a maximum of six months in jail and $500 fine. Tony Manero Wins BUENOS AIRES, Oct. 16 Tony Manero, United States Open golf champion, defeated John Cruik-shank, Argentine Open titlist, 3 and 2 in 36 holes yesterday. Winners? Ohio, Gophers, Navy! little break, a break that might find a tniitopper oacK scurrying into the open and down the field for a touchdown.

Duquesne received quite a shock yesterday when it was learned that Beto Vairo, kicking ace and blocking halfback, and Johnny Karrs, the plunging fullback, were definitely out as starters. Hope for Vairo, Karrs Vairo suffered a ruptured blood vessel in his right ankle (his punting leg) on the next to the last play in dummy scrimmage Wednesday afternoon and was rushed to Mercy Hospital. Karrs, hounded by injuries all fall, turned up with a sprained back the same day and he joined Vairo in a hospital bed. Dr. Leo O'Donnell, team physician, said today that both will be available for the Pitt game, but naturally wouldn't be up to par, physically.

Coach Clipper Smith had planned to start both lads and his team will be materially weakened. They may see action, however. In their places will go George Matsik, at right halfback, and Ken Bechtloff at fullback. The Dukes took a workout at the Pitt Stadium yesterday and this afternoon were to limber up, then go off to Judge Tom Marshall's farm to spend the night. A gigantic student celebration be gan at Duquesne University yesterday noon with Judge Tom Marshall, State Representative Sammy Weiss, former Duquesne quarterback Coaches Smith and Donelli and President of the University, Rev.

Father J. J. Callahan, as speakers, in the gymnasium. A bonfire and pep rally is scheduled on the Bluff tonight. In the meantime, Pitt is goin along in the same routine manner that has marked its preparations for every game.

Practice yesterday on the field above the Stadium, and a short skull drill. Today, the boys wrill come down to the Stadium for a snappy signal drill, talk things over later and so to bed. Jock's Veterans Ready The Panthers are in good physical shape and ready to keep moving toward an undefeated campaign. Dr. Jock Sutherland has the greatest respect for the Hilltoppers and won't take any chances with his team.

He'll start his first stringers, composed of Daddio and Souchak, ends; Matisi and Daniell, tackles; Glassford and either Dalle-Tezze or Lezouski, guards, and either Hensley or Adams, center. Greene or Michel-osen is the quarterback; Goldberg and LaRue, halfbacks, and probably Stapulis, fullback. Coach Clipper Smith will field Hefferle and Platukis, ends; Maras and Critchfield, tackles; Perko and Barko, guards, and Basrak, center. Zoppetti is the quarterback; Dillon and Matsik, halfbacks, and Bechtloff, fullback.

Pitt Dog Exhibit Trojans, Bears, Huskies Have Edge on West Coast; Duke Favored Over 'Rambling Wrecks'; Temple Picked Over Tech and Owls are the favorites. George Washington continues to entertain the south, meeting Arkansas on Friday night.

Arkansas has a well-rounded attack. The Razorbacks lost a close one to Texas Christian, but George Washington cannot be picked in this one. Nebraska meets its second Big Ten foe in a row in Indiana. The Huskers will have to watch for tricks from the Hoosiers, but the latter will have to watch for Card-well and Francis. It looks like Nebraska.

DuquoMie will have one spirited rush-line to match the Pitt forwards, and if there is any decided turn in Mr. Smith favor of the Gold and Blue, it will be because the latter also has one and then another. Pitt can look for trouble from Boyd Brumbaugh, who loses nothing in comparison with any back in the East.

Pitt, with interchangeable sets of ball carriers, can keep the pressure on at full blast for 60 minutes. Forgetting the psychological currents, which are all blowing in Duquesr.es favor, the bow has to go in the Panthers' direction by a touchdown or two. CARNEGIE TECH TEMPLE The Tartars have yet to show an offense. Temple is lighter than usual, but the additional speed seems to have fitted in nicely with Glenn Warner's peek-a-boo two wing back deception. Until the Techs have gained enough momentum to prove they can carry the fight across their 50-yard line, there is no reason to think the Owls won't be able to score at least twice and then hang on for dear life.

WEST VIRGINIA-WEST VIRGINIA WES EE YAN Civil ar in the Mountain State. After a straggling start against Waynes-burg, there has been a decided perk-up at Morgantown, even taking the Pitt setback into consideration. West Virginia ought to have enough to send the Bobcats back to Buckhannon, tamed. FRINCETON-FENN Now we'll see what the Tiger has in hiding. It will be Princeton's first major engagement, while the Quakers hae had their noses pushed into the sod by Yale.

Penn has shown little imagination in its attack, and it hardly seems likely Old Nassau will consent to being pushed to defeat. So we go for the Tiger. YALE-NAVY A Bulldog at the Midshipmen's heels. Navy's back-field is said to be slow and all of the driving type. The Blue is swift and distinctly air-minded.

A nudge for New Haven. ARMY-HARVARD The Cadets had to move with thunder and fury to get by Columbia, while the Crimson has yet to be dropped into the test tube. In New England they are entertaining high hopes that the Dick Harlow regime will begin to cash in this week-end. Army will be the favorite, but this game comes close to being the day's best long shot. CORNELL-SYRACUSE Neither one is going anywhere, but the young and ambitious Ithacans can take the prize.

DARTMOUTH-BROWN What the Hanover Indians wanted to do against Holy Cross and didn't they probably will put over on the Bear.

Eisenhof, Walnut Hall, owned by Harkness Edwards, Don-erail, repeated her triumph of the 1935 show by annexing the best of breed in the Great Dane competition. Conquest of 32 other Boston terriers was the feat of Duke's Gay Rockefeller, owned by Mr.

and Mrs. F. W. Duke, Cumberland, Md. Local setters made a good showing, but couldn't quite come up to the visiting quality.

The same was true in the bulldogs. In the collies, Collyhaven Blue Sylvia, owned by Mrs. Grace Shepler, Glenfield, managed to gain the best bitch award, the Middle West's feature. Lynn Waldorf got the Wildcats off the mark much faster this fall. They proved their worth by beating a good Iowa team.

BURCKY Brooklyn Tigers, Harry Newman's American Football League team which helps the Pittsburgh Americans launch their home season at Forbes Field Sunday afternoon, have had two field goals and three long-r touchdowns scored on them this fall. The Tigers have scored one touchdown and two field goals. That Newman has a strong club to oppose the Amerks here Sunday is evidenced by the accounts of the Brooklyn-New York game Wednesday, which New York won, 17-6. The Yankees got their first score near the end of the first quarter when they blocked one of Newman's punts and recovered the ball on the Tigers' 18-yard line. Unable to gain ground at this point, Ken Strong placekicked a field goal for a three-point lead.

Prior to this, the Tigers had marched off three consecutive first downs to the New York 30-yard line. The Yanks stiffened and Nevman failed in an attempt for a fieid goal. The Yankees put over their first touchdown in tne second quarter on a 71-yard run in which three men carried the ball. Bill Abee, Cora-opolis athlete, playing leit half, crunched into the line, flippered a lateral pass to Rose, who ran 46 yards and then tossed a second lateral to Fraley. who romped the remaining 25 yards.

The Tigers had the Yankees deep in their own field until Siegel galloped 64 yards for the final Yankee touchdown. Strong scored both placement kicks for the points after touchdown. Sitting in a second tier box the other night as the Pirates defeated the Eagles at Forbes Field were GENE EDWARDS, St. Vincent coach and two of the Bearcat staunch est rooters FA-THER A L-CUIN and FA-THER VICTOR They made the trip from Latrobe to cheer the grid Pirates and drop a word or two about the fine team at St. Gene Edwards Vincent 'We might have won the Wavnesburg game just as easily as we lost it," EDWARDS sad.

"And we're going to be rather toush the rest of the way." MULLIGAN went into the Philadelphia Eagles' lineup against the Pirates and JIMMY MILLER, the sports writer, cracked: "Well, he'll make quite a stew of things out there!" Home, JAMES! one of the reasons the pro football games drag out is because the boys throw so many forward passes." and on each incompleted pass, time is taken out This is the explanation for those fans who wondered how come the pros' games take longer time than the collegians Who do you rate Sports Stew i Served Hot ning and passing of Schmidt will offset any edge the Elis may have in material. I pick Navy in a close game. Princeton's First Major Test Princeton received its first major test in tackling Pennsylvania at -franklin Field. The Tiger will have Uc honri, rpv, its hands full, but should win. The situation at Penn is better this trip.

Dick Harlow has done a fine job at Cambridge, but the Crimson is paired vim ioo aoie a learn, vn injury has put Dobson, who looked so well at fullback, out of Army's lineup lor the season, but the Cadets still with too able a team. An injury have Monk Meyer and others.

Temple and Carnegie Tech meet in Philadelphia tonight in the initial major sectional test for each. Tech has been through two wearing games against Notre Dame and Michigan State. The Skibos will be playing at nigtit on a foreign field. Temple is accustomed to night ball and is better prepared physically. The edge goes to Temple.

Pittsburgh has to come back after a gruelling battle with Ohio State and bump into a local rival, Du- quesne. The Dukes had an easy game last week just the right sort for a tune-up. They will be shooting for this one. It is the game in capital letters on their schedule. Again, much depends on the condition of our ends.

The loss of two regulars has been a handicap thus far. Syracuse and Cornell will have had two weeks' preparation. I expect that the Orange club's greater experience will prevail. Dartmouth will find Brown a lot easier than Holy Cross and should win without too much trouble. As usual there are plenty of in teresting intersectional battles.

Col gate and Tulane renew relations, and the edge in this one must to Tulane on the basis of this performances. Auburn meets Detroit, but Titans are not strong enoug v-ear to cause the Plainsmen any trouble. Cornhuskers Solve Tricks Rice continues with its back-breaking schedule in meeting Georgia.

Well, ALI BABA came back to town for the first time since that evening Tuesday at the Moose Temple, and EDWIN C.

BAILEY of Carrick, called over STANLEY WAECH-TER. a commission deputy, and handed him the gaudy headpiece "I sat in the second row at Greenlee Field the night the fez was being tossed around and I grabbed it." BAILEY told him. "There was so much tumult about it, I didn't want to return it then. This is the first time ALI BABA has been back, so here it is." WAECHTER gave BABA his turban after the show and the bald-headed wrestler almost cried, he was that pleased! BUNNY BUNTACH. the wrestling promoter, should penalize BAILEY by giving him a season pass to his shows and making BAILEY attend em all! LESTER BIEDERMAN.
