Thia town is ga-ga these days over the business of announcing, getting ready to announce, or testing the results of announcements already made, of 1937 car models.

The great proving grounds which surround this automobile metropolis are buzzing with excitement as tests continue on speed, acceleration, carburetion, knee action, unisteel body construction, etc. Neither the presence of Alf Landon here Tuesday night, nor F. D. R. tonight, nor the big football schedule of Saturday can take Detroit's mind off its new auto models.

Permit me to report in more or less detail although entirely unofficially on one of these cars, perhaps the most popular. Certainly it will be in the lowest price field. It will be absolutely the most economical to operate. It will be mounted almost exclusively By WILLIAM WEEKES Associated Prtss Sports Writer CHICAGO, Oct 15., Coach Lynn Waldorf's labors to pack his Northwestern eleven with a "November" punch in October will be given the make or break test Saturday by Ohio on Akron-made tires.

Famed as a coach whose teams reached peak form in November, the jovial head man of Wildcat football, faced With probably the toughest October assignments possible in Big Ten competition, has schemed and hustled to work up a full head of steam without delay. The Wildcats showed surprising early season power in trouncing Iowa and North Dakota state, but set up in 150 United States cities, and in at least five foreign coun tries.

That was the word today as Zeh, the nation's leading college scorer last year, and his teammates drilled savagely to topple the Yellow Jackets, who last year topped all other college teams in the country while winning the Ohio conference title but losing to Reserve. Both elevens are unbeaten, and make up 40 per cent of Ohio's even Waldorf himself isn't Certain if they have reached the form necessary to cope with Ohio State Saturday, and Minnesota later in the month.

Zeh, ace passer for the Red Cats, was back in uniform after missing a day of practice because Pneumatic tires are barred. Reducing the size of the wneel is not only for the purpose of adding safety, but also for economy. Manufacturers say they will be able to market good racing wheels, with solid tires, within the price range. With the $10 maximum cost remaining in effect for next year the builders will be better able to build than they were in 1936 when wheel costs ate up nearly the full amount of the $10. The 1937 Soap Box Derby race driver must do ALL of the con-" struction work on his car.

He may accept unlimited advice but no assistance in the actual building. No steel other than for axles and wheels may be used in the chassis but tin or sheet metal may be used for body construction, the supporting framework of which must be of wood. No changes have been made in tread, height of car, wheelbase, width of car but over-all length has been cut from 75 to 72 inches. More emphasis has been placed on steering. Rope steering is banned and wire, cable or chain is demanded.

Continuing the drive for increased safety, the new rule on brakes is that if one drag brake is used it must be centered. If two drags are used they must be on each side of the car and operate from one control. If wheel brakes are used they must be on both rear wheels or on all four. Weight Is Figured On Car And Driver RADICAL CHANGE has been made in the matter of weight. In the past a maximum weight limit was made for the cars but no consideration was paid to the weight of drivers.

The punch department will be handled by Don Heap, Qllie Adcl-man, Clarence Hinton, Bernard Jefferson, Don Geyer, Steve Toth and Fred Vanzo, who have been drilled in the old-fashioned football with which Pittsburgh defeated the "Scarlet Scourge" last week, in addition to a lively passing game. Northwestern's linemen, particularly the tackles, have been working under the eye of Coach Burt Ingwersen, seeking to develop speed enough to rush Ohio State's spectacular formations before Tippy Dye, Joe Williams, Bill Booth, Mike Kabealo, Frank An-tenucci and the other Buckeye backs can get started.

This means that the 100-pound boy will be able to build 150 pounds of weight into his car but that the heavier boy will be called upon to use his ingenuity in devising a safe and fast car of less weight.

With the ban on steel construction for 1937 it will not be difficult for even the extra heavy boy to build his car and keep within the 2po maximum weight of car and driver. No welding will be permitted, either amateur or professional. Officials of Soap Box Derby, Inform me that they will accept only 150 United States cities for next year, although more than 200 have applied for franchises. A total of 116 cities in the United States conducted meets this year and sent their champions to Akron. To get around the necessity of having to turn down definitely so many cities seeking right to conduct meets, it is probable that certain key cities will conduct preliminary meets in these non-franchised cities and let the survivors compete in the championship programs in the key cities.

Don't Sell Kipke's Wolverines Too Short npAI.K IN DftTKOi'I is not to sell out Harry Kipke's Michigan Wol-' verines too short. The Wolves have been beaten by Michigan State and Indiana, but there are surprisingly few wolves howling for Kipke's scalp. Definitely, Michigan is improved over last year and the year fore. The squad is larger, faster and more talented. Nobody really expects it to- beat Minnesota Saturday, yet the situation is ripe for a great Upset.

For one thing, the pressure is off at Michigan. The team has nothing at stake since the Indiana defeat, and it is expected to play better ball against, the Gophers, remembering of course, that both Michigan Stale and Indiana have their best teams in years. The law of averages is soon to wreak vengeance upon Minnesota, just as it did against Carl Hubbell in the recent World Series. The Gophers have not been beaten nor tied in the last 19 games, just one short of Notre Dame's all-time record, but it required a touchdown run of 75 yards in the final 68 seconds last Saturday against Nebraska to keep Minnesota's great streak from ending. Michigan was the last team to beat Minnesota.

That was in 1932. While the dope does not point to a Michigan victory Saturday, such an upset is not beyond the realm of possibility.

Minnesota has tied Notre Dame's record of 26 games without a defeat, but has numerous tied games on the list.

Notre Dame won 18 straight in 1919 and 1920 and added two more in 1921 before being beaten. Starting a decade later the Irish under Rockne won 19 straight in '29 and '30 and made it 20 under Hunk Anderson in 1931 before being beaten. Boeringer Says 'Poor Old Hunk Anderson Sl'EAklNG OF Hunk Anderson, a lot of Rockne products are doing that little thing these days since Anderson came out down at North Carolina State with the squawk that the Notre Dame foot-. ball system is outmoded. Bud Boeringer, last of Rockne's great centers and now Detroit coach, was particularly vehement over Anderson's blast.

"Poor old Kunk," he said. "He's still moaning. He use4 to moan only because the guards didn't show enough pep on the practice lot.

The victory was not only impressive, but came as a distinct surprise, since Seelig was rated an edge both in experience and steadiness. A IfiMaWliM. OHr JusVlu, i NEW YORK, Oct. 15. UPl It's going to take a lot of convincing to convince New York fight fans that Harry Balsamo, the subway slugger, doesn't rate a shot at Middleweight Champion Freddy Steele's crown.

The ex-brakeman from the subway loomed larger than ever in the 160-pound picture today as a result of his one-minute victory over Eric Seelig, German refugee, who is rated among the top Europeans in the division. The victory last night, coming via the technical knockout route in 1:04 of the first round, marked Balsamo's 16th knockout win in 20 fights since he brought his heavy-hitting ability out of the subway to turn pro a little more than a year ago. Balsamo, at 159 outweighed his rival by a quarter of a pound. he moaned that the material wasn't coming to Notre Dame. Now he's moaning that the entire system is old-fashioned.
