Wisconsin Outplays Chicago, But Misses Three Fine Chances to ScoreAttack of Stagg's Men Stopped By Rejuvenated Madison Eleven Illinois Tied With Iowa for Second Place, in Tight Conference Race.

Chicago, Nov. 22. The University of Chicago eleven, by a desperate fight today kept its 1924 record unsullied by defeat, although held to a Bcoreicsa tie by a highly keyed up- Wisconsin team. With three victories and three ties, but no defeats, Chicago stands winner of the Western conference championship for the 1921 football season. Ohio State and Illinois also played tie games with Chicago, and the University of Missouri, in the first game of the season at Stagg field, defeated Chicago 3 to 0 in a non-conference game.

The Minnefota upset of last Saturday knocked Illinois out of the undefeated clams, and the Iilini tied for the reason with Iowa in second place. Michigan, through today's defeat by Iowa, went into fourth place. Hadgers Fail to Win. Wisconsin for the first time in many years failed to win a conference game and ranks last. Wisconsin won what its supporters considered a moral victory in tod-y's game, stopping" the grinding Chicago drive and uncovering an attack that sparkled with fake punt and forward pass formations from which the ball was run, thrown or kicked to the frequent confusion of the Chicago defense.

I Iff 4a- tilt By George A. Barton. We Northwesterners learned in the Memorial Stadium Satur day afternoon that our Dixieland cousins do something besides singing mammy songs, strumming on banjos and picking cotton. They play a brand of football equal to that of the Big Ten Conference, this fact being clearly demonstrated by the Vanderbilt eleven which defeated Minnesota by a score of 16 to 0. sv .1 -r.

Harvard Is Swamped by Yale Tidal Wave, 19 to 6 Eli Team Outplays Crimson By Wide Margin and Wins Big Three Title for Second Consecutive Year Bull Dog Gets Surprise in First Half When Two Field Goals By Gehrke Gives Foes the Lead Early Margin Quickly Overcome By Blue.

New Haven, Nov. 22. (By Associated Press). A blue tidil wave, gathering fury as it rolled on, surged through the Yale Bowl this afternoon, submerged the gallant Crimson defenders ar.d swept on to a smashing victory. Out of the morasses of the Eli gridiron, churned into a sea of muck and mire by a torrential downpour throughout the game that beat down upon a vast but bedraggled crowd of 74,000 banked upon the slopes of the bowl, Yale's mighty football machine rose to new heights of glory by conquering Harvard, 19 to 6, and capturing the "Big Three' crown for the second successive year.

Harvard Springs Surprises. Champagn, Nov. 22. (By Associated Press). With the famed "Red" Grange sitting on the sidelines nursing his damaged shoulder, Illinois convinced its admirers that it was not entirely a one-man team today by vanquishing Ohio State, 7 to 0.

The game, packing the lnh and fire of Illinois' early season triumphs when Grange sprinted up and down the chalk lines for sensational runs, was played before aljout 30,000 rpettatois. The "Fighting Ulinl," shaking off the despondency resulting from the Minnesota upset a week ago, crashed over with a touchdown In the first period with Kay Gallivan, a sophomore quarterback, carrying the ball. He played a stellar gome, sharing honors with Mcllwain. Green trying his best to (ill the gap caused by Grange's Injuries, was no Grange, but he assisted In carrying the Illinois attack, along with Gallivan and Iiritton. Tho Illinois line, weakened at Minnesota, braced and forced the Buckeyes to resort to frequently.

Hritton kicked goal. Illinois threatened several times during the remainder of the game but was unable to score. Hritton attempted a 61-place kick on one occasion but missed the shot by inches. In the closing minutes of the game Illinois took the ball on downs on Ohio's 30-yard line and smashed nnd passed its way to Ohio's one-yard line. Green, on fourth down, smashed acress but the ball was brought back and Illinois penalized five yarda for offside play.

Hankat i1 I i Norton About to Dispose of Saints, Report President Declares He Is Seriously Considering -Three Bids for Club. John AV. Norton, president of the St. Paul baseball club, American association and minor league champion for the 1024 season, is seriously thinking of disposing of ths down liver dub. it became known Saturday Mr.

Norton expects to have more definite information before the meeting of the league in Hartford, next month. The first intimation Norton's announced intention to sell was received while the St. Paul club was playing Seattle for the minor league championship this fall. Norton was very anxious to play out tho series, being quoted as saying that "as it may be my last season in baseball, I want to make it the best I ever have bad." AVhen approached cn the subject Saturday night Norton declared that he was thinking of selling out and that the number of bidders had been reduced to three. Kach of the offers is said to be ojute generous.

President Norton has headed the downriver club for the past 10 years. During that time the St. Paul team has won four American association peri-ant, finished Second three time, fourth once and sixth twice. The last six years have found the Saints winning four championships, finishing' second once and sixth once. Oregon Defeat! Asgies, Corvallis, Nov.

Vanderbilt presented a powerful and well coached team that played as near perfect football as ever has been sen in these parts.

It was thought the change from warm, weather to the wintry brand woubl raise havoo with the Southerners, but If our cold climate bothered the visitors they failed to show it. Fact is, the chilly ozone seemed to invigorate the Southerners who were up on their toes and fighting like madmen throughout the 60 mlnutes-ef play. The brilliant football played by Van. derbilt reflects great credit upon iu coach, Dan McGugin, former Michigan university player and assistant mentor Fielding H.

Tost back in 1903. Tho Southerners presented a varied attack, mixing line-smashing with a passing and end running effense that baffled tho aphers. They had a wonderful aerial attack with McKinnon doinu the throwing and Wakefield, Reese ami Cargylo on the receiving end. In Reese, Vanderbilt has one of the best open field runners that ever played on a Minnesota gridiron, the flashy halfback roaming the field pretty much at will all afternoon. x' As the Gophers stopped Red Granga last Saturday, so did Vanderbilt stop Clarence Schutte yesterday.

The fleet-footed Minnesota halfback who was the hero of Minnesota's victory over Illinois, was able to get away for only one run of consequence, his best effort being 22-yard dash through a broken field late in the third quarter. Schutte wan a marked man and every time he started through the line or around ths ends he found three or four tacklor3 ready to bring him down. Schutte was knocked cold in tackling Reese in the fourth pericd and was replaced by Edward Van Duzee. Gophers Threatened Twice. The Gophers wert, victims of bad breaks that cost them two touchdowns in the first half.

Late in the first period, Roger Wheeler caught a pass from Ascher on Vanderbilt's 20-yard line and carried the ball to the 10-yard line where he dropped the ball when taek-led by Reese, Wakefield recovering fop the Southerners. In the second quar. ter, a penalty inflicted upon the Southerners for interfering with Freddie Just in catching a pass gave Minnesota the ball on its opponents' 31-yard line. On the next play, Ascher passed 10 yards to Wheeler who sprinted to Vanderbilt's 6-yard line before being downed. Two line plunges by Schutte gained only two yards, following which Graham was thrown for a loss cf six yards when he tried to circle left end.

On fourth down, Ascher heaved tho ball to Freddie Just who was standing be- (Continued on Following Page.)

Entering the game an overwhelming favorite, Dame university football team met a worthy foe in the Northwestern university's eleven, and after using their full strength, pounded out a 13 to 6 victory over Northwestern. Notre Dame's famous back field did not have things their own way, and were stopped or held to small gains, by a line that fought with dogged determination. nlph Baker, like Horatius at the bridge, stopped the visitors' attack almost single handed. His punts outdistanced those kicked by Layden of Notre Dame by fully 20 yards, and he threaded his way through the opposing line for substantial gains that averaged 15 to 20 yards. Laydea Intercepts Tass.

StuhlUreher and Layden scored Notre DamVs two touchdowns, both of which resulted from forward pass plays. Layden made a sensational dash for the goal line in the third quarter when he intercepted a pass on the 40-yard line. While Stuhldreher plunged off tackle from the 5-yard line where Crowley had put the ball after catching a long pass from Stuhldreher. It was Baker who scored all of Northwestern'n tallies. The game was harely started before he bnoted the ball between the goal posts from the 35-yard line.

Again in the first period he directed a beautiful three-point counter from a very difficult angle on the 80-yard line. Aewal Came Gains. It was Notre Dame's for wad passing and not their line plunging that gained them the most downs. They completed seven out of 13 attempted gains by tho aerial route, but these (Continued on Following Paje.) Syracuse Gains 7 to 3 Victory Over Colgate Orange Eleven Wins After Twice.

Thirty thousand persons braved the elements to witness this twenty-fifth annual contest between the rival colleges. The Orange outplayed Colgate during most of the game, but the lighting spirit of the Colgate team was not to be lienied and twice during the height of art Orange offense the Maroon tightened up its defense and took the ball on downs, once on its own one yard line.

(I3y Associated Press Michigan, battling for a place among Western Conference football leaders, stumbled and fell today over a stone wall of Hawkeyes, losing to Iowa, 9 to 2.

Iowa, too, uncovered an effective defense to the Michigan aerial weapon. Several Friedman passes were knocked down and one was Intercepted.

Scantlebury Scores. Scantlebury began the drive with a five-yard plunge through right tackle and then ploughed through the Bame hole for six more. Parkin the tried the Michigan line, and failed, and the ball again was given to Scantlebury who bored into the Michigan right guard for four yards.

On the next play he hit center for a first down on Michigan's four-yard line and then, in three furious crashes into the Michigan forward wall, he went over for the single touchdown of the game. He failed to kick the added point. Iowa's other score came off Hancock's toe a perfect place kick from the Michigan 25-yard line in the waning moments of the final period. Punt Is Mocked. Michigan barely missed getting a touchdown on the play, early In the first perio that resulted in her only score, a safety.

The Aggies held Colorado to a touchdown and two dropklcks in ths first half, but their defense crumbled In the final period and Colorado backs gained at will. -Beaten back, outplayed and held scoreless in the first half of this mud battle, in which Harvard showed surprising strength and scored twice on field goals through the brilliant kicking of Erwln Gehrke, Cleveland, halfback, who was the Crimson's outstanding hero. Yale rallied in the second and half-slid, half-smashed its way to triumph in one tf the great exhib.tltons of driving power under seemingly insur mountable odds ever witnessed. Undaunted by conditions even worse than those existing a year ago in the memorable fray in the mire of Harvard's gridiron, Yale came from behind to score two touchdowns in the third period, both of which were aided by Harvard fumbles, and to add a third score in the final quarter on a 75-yard march through the bogs and lagoons that clotted the field.

Harvard Helpless. Through the last half," Harvard was helpless, beaten back but fighting stubbornly, while Yale, alert and irresistible, drove on with a relentless series of onslaughts in which "Ducky" Pond, hero of Yale's triumph at Cambridge a year ago, and Billy Kline, his running mate, always were the spearhouds. Together this paif of slippery, eellike runners bore the brunt of the Blue charge, Pond carrying the pigskin over for the touchdown that tied the score, while Kline took over the other two, all three coming on short lino thrusts after Yale had steadily pounded her way into Crimson territory. Thus Yale's superior, more resource ful, attack turned a tide that at the outset took on a Crimson hue and seemed likely to sweep on to complete the upsets that marked both previous "Big Three" games this year. Harvard go ing Into the fray with a forlorn hope, put up a stubborn battle, but lost because she did not have the sustaining power to hold the advantage which smart generalship and Gehrke's talented toe gave the Crimson through the early part of the game.

Crushing Setback. It was a crushing setback for Harvard, despite her gallant fight, for the Crimson closed one of its most disappointing seasons by losing to both hr ancient foes, the Tiger and Bull Dog, for the first time in 35 years, after also dropping her other two major games, to Dartmouth and Brown. On the other hand, it was a great victory for Yale, which riot only landed her second straight "Big Three" title, but closed a second straight season without defeat in a manner which adds (Continued from Preceding rage.).
