2 Two of the nation's outstanding undefeated and untied football teams, Notre Dame and Ohio State, are ready today for their battle here that may decide the national gridiron championship. The Ramblers from South Bend, hailed as the greatest football combination to represent Mf' fi iff 3m oi Ki i ill I Joe Bach Victory Pirate Coach Eyes Third Straight Win, But Kostka, Kercheval and Franklin Must Be Stopped; It's Up to Pittsburgh Line fes Notre Dame since the glamorous era of the late Knute Rockne, arrived here shortly before noon yesterday. Coach Elmer Layden hustled his 47 players to their sequestered quarters at St. Charles Boromeo Seminary on the outskirts of Columbus and gave them a light drill on one of the institution's practice fields. Ohio took its usual pre-game workout within the familiar confines of the huge concrete stadium which stands as a tribute to the prowess of "Chic" Harley, the greatest football star ever to perform for a scarlet and gray clad eleven.

Both Coaches Quiet Both Layden and Ohio Coach Francis A. Schmidt reported their entire squads in tip-top condition. Beyond that they maintained almost a clam-like silence. "I hope we can keep the score down," Layden said. "If we can win by a point I'll be satisfied," was Schmidt's terse 'statement.

On the eve of the game, Ohio State remained the public choice. Buckeye fans offered 7 to 5 or even money and six points with few takers reported. Prospects were for near perfect football weather. Clear skies were promised with the temperature expected to be in the mid-forties. The taciturn demeanor of the coaches didn't dampen the enthusiasm of fans and when the veteran referee Frank Birch blows his whistle for the opening kickoff eleven players from the rosters of the two squads who are definite All-Amer ican material will go under the microscopic eye of 80,000 fans and a corps of 200 football experts.

Grid Fates Ponder Upon the tricky turn of fate and success or the failure of the strategy given the highly keyed elevens, will rise or fall the hopes of the Buck eye and Irish youngsters to attain the collegiate grid heights.

While the Notre Dame squad was cloistered in its seminary quarters and Ohio State was sheltered at the Columbus Country Club, supporters of the two poured" into the city and joined in the carnival spirit which has been prevalent since early in the week.

Tenpin King Gives Exhibition Here Hank Marino Appears At Two Alleys The No. 1 tenpin bowler in the United States was to give two exhibitions in Pittsburgh today. Hank Marino, of Milwaukee, national match game tenpin champion, was to show his wares both at the Roxian Alleys, McKees Rocks, and at the Elba 'Alleys, Downtown. The Roxian matches were to start at 2:30 p. m.

with Marino opposing Jimmy Shimmer, Ralph "Pop" Dil-linger, and Fred "Herr" Schmied. At Elba, Marino was paired with Nick Cieri, who beat Otto Stein here some time ago, and Val Russ-man. Two series of three games each were to make up the program starting at 9 p. m. Admission was free.

Marino won the national title last spring when he defeated Otto Stein, of St. Louis, then the champion, in an 80-game series played in Milwaukee and St. Louis. Additional Metropolitan Tenpin League results show that the Oh-ringers took th. from Mesta Club, and Casino No.

By JOE BACH Coach, Pittsburgh Pirates Tomorrow the Pittsburgh Pirates are going to win their third successive game at the expense of the Brooklyn Dodgers. This game will be a bitterly fought one as both clubs are anxious to stay in the running for the eastern title.

with records that are far from Im pressive, go to bat this afternoon at the Pitt Stadium and some fans expect to see one of the grandest fights of the season, de spite the poor scores that both out fits have turned in this season. Carnegie Tech rules a slight fa vorite to down Duquesne for the second straight season, but the Hilltoppers have their supporters who claim the odds are all wrong, this time. Last year Duquesne was the big choice to dump the Tartans, but the Skibos, fighting with their usual tenacity, managed to pull out a 3-0 triumph and send the Hilltoppers back home with the stigma of never having scored a point in the Oakland Saucer. This is Duquesne's fourth trip into Pitt's big and the boys in green still are looking for a point. A scoreless tie with Tech in a charity game in 1931, and two defeats at the hands of Pitt, 33-0 and 7-0, and then the 3-0 reverse last year by Tech, have been the lot of the downtown boys.

Many Classy Backs A wealth of backfield material, a strong, hard charging line and a galaxy of high class subs, should give the Dukes their first score out there today, and it will be up to the fighting Skibos to outscore the Hilltoppers. Both teams have lost three games and won two. And almost every team each school faced has been The Records TECH DIKES 15 Case 3 SO III. Ves.ley. 3 It 41 Kan.

Tech started out with a 6-3 win over Case but dropped the next three to Notre Dame, 14-3, N. Y. 25-6, and Temple, 13-0. A surprisingly powerful exhibition against Purdue's previously unbeaten Boilermakers last Saturday earned the Tartans a 7-0 verdict. Duquesne won from Illinois Wes-leyan in the opener, 20-6, but Kansas State copped a 12-0 battle and Rice won, 27-7, while Catholic administered a 6-0 defeat.

A 13-6 triumph over Washington brought the Dukes back on the victory trail. The game may be played through the air today, with Tech's vaunted forward passes scheduled to sail around the Stadium. Duquesne, also, plans an air raid and she has the players who can throw 'em and the players who can catch 'em. Duquesne appears to have an edge in the matter of experience and the caliber of ball the players have been dishing out this year. Of the 11 players the Hilltoppers field at the kickoff, 10 faced Tech last year.

Four of the Tartans will be seeing service against the Dukes for the first time. Four Sophs for Tech Both coaches took their squads to hide-away places of seclusion yesterday. Keller and Moore are probable Tech starters at ends; Henrion and Hall, tackles; Sutherland and Chyc-zewski, guards, and Co-Capt. Trbo-vich, center. Spisak is the quarterback; Co-Capt.

Terebus and Rosenthal, halfbacks, and Napotnik, fullback. Keller, Sutherland, Rosenthal and Napotnik are sophomores. For Duquesne Chapala and Disegi will likely get the call at the flanks; Johnson and Maras at tackles; Ka-kasic and Perko, guards; Basrak, center, and Gates, quarterback; Capt. Filingham and Zanieski, halfbacks, and Campbell, fullback. Maras is the lone sophomore in this eleven.

Victory for Duquesne, the first over a city rival, would naturally elevate the Hilltoppers to a position where they could claim a share of the city title and if Tech should happen to turn on Pitt Thanksgiving Day, Duquesne would have clear sailing to the championship. Stranger things have happened. GLLF REFINING COMPANY SMITHY Is Pitt an Eastern Or Western Team? By CHESTER L. SMITH Sports Editor NEW YORK, Nov. 2 It seems to be an event when Pitt's football army crosses the Alleghenies and pushes into the East.

Yet Pitt, distinctly, is an eastern school, with interests bearing in this direction. It is a situation which may call for some explana tion. Aside from its own district rivals Carnegie Tech, West Virignia, Penn State, Was hington-Jefferson the Panthers this year maintain football association with only two institutions in the Seaboard area, Ford- uvot, Mr. Smith itauis ttic io be played at the Polo Grounds to-3ay, and Army, a week hence. A year ago, Navy was the lone Eastern eleven on the schedule.

1936 it will be Fordham. Go West, Young Man! trend of Pitt policy is pointed westward. I am not pointing out an error, but merely a fact. The Panthers had Notre Dame, Nebraska, Minnesota and Southern California from the direction of the sinking sun in '35. Come another season and they will again play the Cornhuskers and Irish, together with Ohio State.

Wisconsin comes on the card in 1937. Undoubtedly there has been a distinct change in policy in recent years, and it is particularly interesting in view of the fact that Pitt is 'an original member of the 'Big Twelve," an organization of Eastern schools which resulted from the formation of the Eastern Association for the selection of football officials. When they became a part of that group it was tr night that the Panthers had committed themselves to the East, that they would continue with the Notre Dame and Nebraska series, both of which have become potent, but that few other playing friendships would be formed. Now there is a change. At the moment there is a positive move in some quarters to align Pitt with the Western Conference.

A report that Indiana and Chicago were to be dropped from the Western Conference and their places taken by Pitt and Notre Dame met with only half-hearted denials. There may be something in the wind. Just Geography PITT'S geographical location has much to do with whatever indecision exists. Half way between the Mid-West and the East, the Panthers have had to forage for suitable opponents; necessity was made doubly dire in late years when sectional rivalries, such as -W. J.

and West Virginia, either languished or died altogether. Another factor has been the formation of a league within a league here in the East the formation of the 'Big Harvard. Yale, Princeton and Dartmouth. Their football fortunes may not have averaged the highest, but their standing is without question, and their in oil 4 1 created a certain degree of uncertainty as to whether the Conference idea, broached here so many times, will ever catch on. To a host of Pitt followers, a laison with the East is preferred to any extensive hookup with the West.

They feel that the Blue onH flnlrt will dn hft.t.pr tn rnlti vate its friends on this side of the Mountains rather than cast its lot with the midlands. Which would be the better is not to be settled here; the fact remains that the matter is in a state of ferment. What a Bunch! THIS story has nothing to do with the game today, but it happened when Pitt made its last appearance on Manhattan. Tt ti-oc fho sao'ninsr. Syracuse.

I'nlail Kanrtour K.H I. Rim Maiilte F.B ratrirk Dulkie By CHESTER L. SMITH Sports Editor NEW YORK, Nov. 2 Manhattan quivered over its first earthquake in years the other night, and Pitt hopes to make Fordham's Rams think No. 2 has arrived shortly after luncheon today when the Panthers pile into the Polo Grounds for the first game in a series of two with the young gentlemen coached by Jimmy Crowley, first heard of as a rider among the Four Horsemen of Notre Dame.

It was bleak and rainy this morning. Low clouds scudded in from the West and it was turning cold. The Polo Grounds had been drenched from intermittent downpours which have fallen for 48 hours. Altogether, the setting was perfect for the temblor the Panthers hope will shake the Rams loose and send the Sutherlanders home with their fifth victory in six games. Fordham occupies a similar position.

Today's engagement means much. To win it will send the team winging toward a highly-successful campaign and imbued with a fresh confidence for the St. Mary's match just a week off and the critical games which follow. Purdue is the only opponent which has upset the Rams thus far, and they have high hopes that they will be able to make up for that reversal with something to spare. End Posts Open Off in Rye, the Panthers raced through signals in the rain late yesterday andt the conclusion, Dr.

Jock, Sutherland was still undecided aboiit the end positions. He had no doubt about the makeup of the remainder of the team, but the Flankers were a perplexing question. The probabilities are Frank Souchak and Bob Shaw will start at ends, although it may be Miller and Shaw, or Miller and Sites. Crowley indicated that he might open with his second team, but regardless of that, the Panthers will throw down their strongest hand on the deal. Pitt May Pass! It is no secret that the Panthers are hoping to pass often against the type of defense to'which the Rams are addicted.

In this manner they have the idea that they will be able to spread the Ram secondary in such a way that Larue and Random- will be able to slip away for long gains and Patrick find holes through the middle which have been closed to him thus far. On the other hand, Fordham can take to the air with not a little effectiveness. Paquin, at left end, is one of the best receivers in the East and Palau, at quarterback, hasn't been entirely repressed this season. The return of Sarno and Sabo, both of whom were injured in the Purdue game, has given Fordham fresh strength at the tackles. Fullback Dulki has recovered from early-season hurts.

The trio forms the key of the Rams' strength and the fact that they will be in the lineup means that Pitt will have to whip the best Fordham has. McKeesport Olympics Battle Rox Rangers Fresh from a 13-6 victory over the Tarentum Firemen last Wednesday night, the McKeesport Olympics take on the Rox Rangers, sandlot grid champions, at the Mc- Kees Rocks Rangers' field tomorrow afternoon in the district's banner sandlot contest. Tarentum played a 0-0 deadlock with the Rangers last Sunday. The Olympics will bank on then-deception and aerial attack to win over the power plays of the Ran gers. TIME OUT! Tch! Teh! What WAS it Jim Campbell top, Duquesne fullback, and Steve Terebus, bottom, Carnegie Tech halfback, two of the backfield aces that battle for the city college rivals in their football encounter at the Pitt Stadium today, Terebus, out of the Purdue game, is ready to go for the Tartans.

Neusel 'Retires9 to Give Predicts For Bucs! Niccolai of our own team in placement kicks both in distance and accuracy. However, the longest field goal kicked this fall goes to Niccolai, a distance of 47 yards. In the New York game Kercheval punted one for 91 yards. As a player in high school, he stood on his own 20-yard line and punted the ball striking the cross bar on the opposite goal. Good kicking is difficult to offset and that is just what the Pirates will have to do; make up lost ground in their running attack.

We have stressed the returning of punts, but this alone will not be enough. We will have to rely on our offense to advance the ball from our own territory more this Sunday than at any time this season. Our passing attack also will be used to make up the difference in the yardage lost. I am hopeful that Zaninelli will be in the same form he was last week, when our kicking was at its peak. If Zaninelli shows as well, then you will see a kicking duel that will not be duplicated again this year.

Zan's placement of punts kept Battles bottled throughout the game with Boston. His drives were long and to the corners. I think you will see the same brand of kicking tomorrow. The running Dodger back is Norman Franklin, who has gained 189 yards in 45 attempts, averaging 4.2 yards for each try. Stanislaus Kost ka, bucking fullback, the sensational back on last year's Minnesota team, has gained 184 yards in 47 attempts, averaging 3.9 yards per try.

With backs like these the line will have to charge harder than in the last two games, when a noticeable im provement was seen over the pre vious games. These men will have to be stopped behind their own line of scrimmage, and it is up to our forward wall to do this. John Oehler, who captained last I year's Pirate team, will be back in a uoager unuorm. joiin rarcais, 101-merly of Tech, will perform once again at Forbes Field.

Nine Entered In Pimlico Futurity By The United Press BALTIMORE, Nov. 2 Nine juveniles are entered for the run ning of the $25,000 added Pimlico Futurity today at Pimlico race track. The race will be over the mile and a sixteenth distance with a gross value of $55,930 if all entries go to the post.

Because of the uncertain conditions of the track, Bomar stables' Grand Slam and H. P. Headley's Hollyrood were equal favorites in the overnight betting at 3 to 1. If no further rain dampens the course, Hollyrood. runner-up to Tintagel in the Belmont Futurity, will be the post favorite because of his lightning-like speed on a fast track.

German Quits Cold in Fourth as Massive Italian Pounds His Way to Successful Comeback Severe Gash Over Right Brow Causes Neusel To Withdraw NEW YORK, Nov. 2 Former Champion Primo Camera last night staged an impressive come-back by scoring a fourth round technical knockout over Walter Neusel of Germany before more than 13,000 fans in Madison Square Garden. In his first appearance since being knocked out by Joe Louis in June, the giant Italian battered the elongated blond German about the ring for the firsts defeats, while Brooklyn, with five games played, is in third place. Regardless of Brooklyn's strength, the Pirates, after their two tastes of victory, will be unbeatable. The team is functioning more as a unit than it did at any time this year.

The club has gained new confidence in its ability to cope with teams with reputed prowess. This alone should be enough to Joe Bach carry us games-. through the remaining The Brooklyn team, coached by Paul Schissler, will show a great offense in their attempt to override the Buccos. The Dodgers have a running and passing attack equal to the best in the league. Their kicking has drawn the attention of every team, since in the exchange of punts they have gained ground which otherwise would have been hard to acquire.

This has kept the team constantly in scoring territory. Kercheval Kicking Star The kicking specialist of the Dodgers is Ralph Kercheval. His punting is the best seen this year in both college and professional football. Ralph rivals Jack Manders of the Chicago Bears and Armand By Chet Smith and Jack Berger ASwVfW rr1 i the coach said to do next? 'X. X.

three rounds. He gashed Neusel's right brow so badly in the fourth that the German quit cold, with blood spurting from the cut. Neusel, who never before had been beaten on" American soil, threw up his hands and waved away the main mountain, turned and started toward his corner before Referee Arthur Donovan stepped in to halt the bout officially. The time was 2:23 of the fourth round. The blow that gashed Walter's right brow was a sweeping right hook that almost lifted Germany's so-called "Blond Tiger" off the floor.

As Neusel whirled into a neutral corner from the force of the blow, a torrent of blood spurted out of the gash onto the canvas. Neusel, who apparently was much discouraged by his inability to reach Primo's lantern jaw, decided then that he had enough. And he "retired" as they say- in Europe. Neusel made his best showing mid-way in the third session, landing several long straight rights and lefts to Primo's face and body. But Walter took a bad battering as the round wore on.

And Primo belted him almost at will in the fourth. Primo, scaling 268 pounds probably the heaviest for any of his professional fights, and towering four inches above the slender German, wrestled Walter about the ring as if he were a high school stripling, and clubbed him mercilessfy in the clinches. Neusel. weighing 201 pounds and neither the weight. punch, ringcraft nor strength to cope with the giant.

Rumors that Primo injured his right hand in training were dispelled by the manner in which the ambling Alp lashed out with that fist. Madison Square Garden officials announced 12,768 paid admissions for a gate of $31,621.55. In the six-round semi-final, staged after the main bout, Eddie Mader, 185, New York, won a unanimous decision over Tony "Night Stick" Galento, 2284, Newark, N. J. The latter was being touted as an opponent for Joe Louis, because of his reputation as a knockout artist.

George Turner, 183, New York, won the unanimous six-round decision over James J. Merriott, 205, Oklahoma. It was a bloody battle in which both suffered cuts over the left brows and about the face. In the six rounder preceding the main event, Bob Pastor, 121 Yz, New York, won the decision over Max Marek, 183 2, Chicago. It was a close, hard fight.

One judge and Referee Arthur Donovan gave the bout to Pastor. The other judge voted for Marek. Fight Results HOM.VWOOD MTle Koenbloom. 17i. former lieht heavjrweicht eham-pion.
