Pole's Glass Shop 123 East Green Street DIAL 2067 AUTO GLASS The SPORT TOWER By KENNY VAN SICKLE ANKED at the top of the nation's gridiron heap, alongside undefeated Notre Dame, is the amazing Cornell football team which spotted Ohio State a 14-0 lead at Columbus Saturday and came back to win, nine points to spare. Rose Bowl bound Tennessee gets a third rating in our book, its perfect record having been made againt foes of second-rate caliber, Alabama excepted.

And if we were to choose a first place club on the basis of sensationalism Cornell would be head and shoulders above the rest, for what club has astounded in the early games more than Cornell, with its crashing victories, over Syracuse, Princeton, and Penn State and then to come through Against great odds at Ohio stadium. It is the No. 1 team of the day in that respect. Rnt vou have to give Notre Dame a look in, though there is always the argument that it is the "luck of the Irish" which has seen the South Benders through their first five games. They eased by Purdue, 3-0; Georgia Tech, 17-14; Southern Methodist, 20-19; had a field day against Navy, 14-7; and Saturday barely beat Carnegie, 7-6.

Those five victories look awfully conspicuous on the score board, however. Notre Dame shouldn't have it too tough for awhile with games with Army, Iowa, and Northwestern coming up but it may be a different story when Southern California, the pride of the Pacific, comes to South Bend on Nov. 25. That same day Cornell will be winding up at Franklin Field against the University of Pennsylvania. That is the game which may decide Cornell's fate in more ways than one.

Should the Big Red get bv Columbia and Dartmouth successfully it will contest the right to the mythical Ivy title with the Quakers and hanging in the balance will be the much discussed national championship which, too, is mythical in many senses. Tennessee really has a very good football team. It is too bad that it cannot show itself against better opposition. So far it has bowled over little fellows like North Carolina State, Sewanee, Chattanooga, and last Saturday took Mercer, 17-0. The Volunteers acquired a setting In the sun when they turned back the Crimson Tide of Alabama but shouldn't have to exert themselves the rest of the way, against LSU, The Citadel, Vander-bilt, Kentucky and Auburn.

Michigan, Texas A. Oklahoma, Southern California, and Nebraska continued their unbeaten pace Saturday and rank close to the top in the country. But you can't put them ahead of the Cornells. Unparalled in history was the reception the Cornell team got on arriving at the Lehigh Valley station Sunday afternoon. It wasn't the noisiest reception by any means but the sight alone of the multitudes cheered the heroes.

There were thousands at the depot patiently awaiting the arrival of the train and a glimpse at their favorites. There was no organized cheering. Students on top of nearby freights burst into song. Then the train came and a sudden hush came over the mob There was hardly a murmur as the players, coaches, moved single-file through to waiting automobiles. But there was plenty of noise when the reception committee, numbering gobs of people, moved up State St.

There was as enthusiastic a mob to greet the band when it arrived on the night train. A little after 11:30 p. m. inhabitants of State St. were aroused by the band as it marched and played its way up the Hill.

Still among the unbeaten is the Ithaca High School football team which hung up a fine 12-7 (Where are those conversions?) victory over Auburn. The Auburnians, for the 12th successive season season came over with the feeling that this was the year to break the jink, but it wasn't Big Mike Nicholas started Ithaca on its way when he ran to a touchdown on what was an Auburn play. Then Ithaca engineered a play of its own to score a second time. It was the fourth straight for the Little Red and up pops Rome, U-E, and Elmira. Rome has lost only one game this year.

That was to Baldwin, L. High, the team Vic Hanson's Freeport team must beat to insure him a bonus. Endi-cott and Elmira are still undefeated. Endicott was idle Saturday but Elmira played, swamping Syracuse Vocational, 44-0. Elmira really plays but three games this year, against Auburn.

U-E, and Elmira. It picks on the Syracuse schoolboys in other games. And Syracuse schoolboy teams just don't rate any more. They haven't had a good high school football team in Syracuse since Pat Kane coralled Benny Golden, Benny Davis, and that gang at Syracuse Central in 1934. Lefty James came home from New York with some good reports about Columbia.

Ray VanOr-man saw Colgate get some tough breaks and lose a three-touchdown decision to Holy Cross. Bo Rowland watched Dartmouth completely annihilate Harvard and wasn't that a fine scouting job turned in by Russ Murhphy. YVe won't bore you with statistics but our predicting average for Saturday was .500 aain, thus lowering our season mark to .540. And we didn't make any money. Like their Big Red brethren from the heights above, the Little Red-men of Ithaca High and Fall Creek's goose pasture have passed a dangerous curve on the road to enviable gridiron recognition.

The scholastic warriors won their fourth victory in as many starts Saturday afternoon by outclassing a well balanced Auburn Senior High School team 12 to 7. Rain, snow, close to freezing temperatures and a field made soggy by a week's precipitation failied to stall the smoothly operating outfit directed by Coach Eddie Pierce. Nor could the stalwart Maroon stop the hard charging Ithacans who struck twice late in the second period to take their 12th successive decision overe that school. The Pierce jinx on Auburn continued unbroken since his taking up the reins at High School Field back in 1928, and this victory must have been particularly satisfying since it marked a quarter century of football relationship with the Owasco Lake community. In that time 18 games have been played, Ithaca winning 12, Auburn four and two being scoreless ties.

Auburn Scores in Third So convincing were the Ithacans just before the first half ended that many of the 3,500 or more fans turned their attention to portable and automobile radios to follow the fortunes of Cornell against Ohio State out in Columbus. The fading interest was recaptured in the third period when the Auburnians made an about face and scored with a long pass, three running plays and a short touchdown toss. Faced with a loss providing the Maroon could shove across another touchdown, the Little Red braced and took command thereafter. They couldn't score, but should have. Once an offside penalty set them back from an end zone just three yards distant, and another time a short and perfect peg by Mike Nicholas came to naught as Joe Capalongo stumbled when about to receive in pay dirt Fumbles played an important part in exchange of the ball, one of these slips directly resulting in the first Ithaca score.

The Little' Red had punched well into Auburn territory but lost the ball on downs at the 12. With Stan Pelc and Bob Currier carrying, the Maroon came back 11 yards. Nicholas Scores on Fumble On another crack into the line. Pelc, the Auburn powerhouse, was hit hard, the ball popping from his hands as he settled to the ground. Nicholas was stamping around in the vicinity when the ball appeared.

He grabbed it and ran untouched for the score. Fred Terry's place kick was blocked by Gernoc, the visiting center. The second touchdown climaxed an uninterruted 54-yard march Nicholas flipped a short pass to Harry Carey and the Red quarter back came to earth on Auburn 25. An end around play with Joe Capalongo toting the ball was good for an additional 10 yards. Bob Tyler bucked twice for six yards before seven more were added through a short pass, Nicholas to Capalongo.

Nicholas plowed to a first down on the three lwto, but an offside penalty seethe boys back to the eight. This time Nicholas fired a strike to Ray Daniels in the end zone. Once again Auburn's forwards broke through to block Terry's try for the extra point. A wind propelled kick from Mike Kot's toe sailed 67 yards into the Ithaca end zone early in the third period. The Red found Auburn's line increasingly stubborn, so Warren Beebe kicked.

It wasn't a good kick, and the ball went out on Ithaca's 44. Joe Mazola immediately fired pass to Kot and it was first down only 12 yards from scoring territory. Pelc rushed for seven yards, but on fourth down Mazola elected to pass to Bill Nuse for the touchdown. Mazola added the point from plaacement. Capalongo Outstanding Throughout the afternoon there were evidences of sparkling individual as well as team play.

Joe Capalongo's activities in a series of plays in the third period was outstanding, however. The smoothly efficient left end started out by blocking a kick and then recovering the ball for a substantial gain. The next play saw him skirting Auburn's left side for 15 yards on an end around. The third play of that series saw him as a potential pass receiver. This pass was short and intercepted by Currier, Maroon speedster.

But before Currier could get away Capalongo reversed himself to nail the Auburn back by the seat of the pants and stop him in his tracks. Pos.

First pneumatic tire for an auto mobile was manufactured in 1896. and a grounded pass stopped the Cornell drive as McCullough punted to Strausbaugh on State's 13-yard mark. Ohio then assumed the role of juggernaut and rolled for a touchdown in 19 plays, all of them overland except a midfield lateral that Langhurst tossed to Strausbaugh for a first down on Cornell's 45.

The Ohio attack, aimed at the tackles and guards, with all four backs carrying the ball with equal effectiveness, just could not be stopped. After registering six first downs, Ohio scored when Strausbaugh cracked through left tackle from the three-yard mark. Scott's placekick converted the point for a 7-0 Ohio State lead, two plays before the first period ended. Ohio State repeated the performance, with trimmings. Strausbaugh was stopped on Ohio's 27-yard mark after a Cornell punt.

Zadworney and Scott ripped off a first down through the and Scott whipped a 38-yard pass to Clair on Cornell's 22. Strausbaugh and Zadworney ripped off another first down on their tearing slants at the tackles. Through to the 5 Langhurst and Zadworney pounded through to the five-yard line. Then Scott lost two yards when he recovered his own fumble. Scott, backing up to pass, dropped the ball, recovered it, and ran for the corner.

He just made the goal line for a touchdown as two Cornell tacklers hit him. Maag placekicked, and Ohio State held a 14-0 lead. But the Cornell second-string backfield went into action to take the play away from the Ohioans and to iight the fuse of victory for the Big Red. Landsberg returned the kickoff 21 yards from the "goal line. Scholl, hitting, at left tackle, stepped around the end and, with magnificent blocking downfield, traveled 79 yards for a touchdown.

It was a magnificent run, with Scholl helped out of a couple of tight spots at midfield by his mates and with Kelley throwing th block that took out the last defender. Howard of State blocked Drahos placekick, and Ohio State still had a comfortable margin, 14-6. The clock showed less than eight minutes left to play in the first half. Cornell chose to kickoff, and Ohio State's attack was stopped cold, Scott punting to Landsberg. Mort returned 12 yards to Cornell's 37.

Scholl, shaking off a tackier, as he raced to fiis right, cut loose a pass to "Swifty" Borhman. Borhman caught the ball on State's 35 and outdistanced two defenders in his sprint for a touchdown. Drahos made sure this time, and his place-kick made the score: Ohio State 14, Cornell 13. Neither team could make any headway the rest of the half. Cornell partisans still had their fingers crossed.

Touchdown Set Up Cornell really put the game away midway in the third period with a 34-yard scoring drive set up by Brown's 21-yard return of a State punt to State's 34. Ohio had been forced to punt from its two-yard mark where Kelley downed one of McCullough's booming kicks. From the Ohio 34, McCullough tossed a 13-yard pass to Kelley, Landsberg split the line for 10 yards and another first down on State's 12. McCullough's second-down toss to Landsberg for five yards and McCullough's dive through left tackle arned a third first down two yards from scoring territory. McCullough tallied on his first attempt a crack through left tackle.

Drahos split the uprights with his placekick, and Cornell was in the lead, 20-14, with more than 23 minutes to play. Still Cornell partisans had their fingers crossed. Ohio State drove hard for another touchdown, marching from the Ohio 37 to Cornell's 11 where the Big Red line put on its best defensive show of the game to take possession of the ball. Ohio tried again, but Dunbar, after State had made two first downs, intercepted a pass on Cornell's 40, and Cornell wound up the third period with the ball on its 43. An exchange of punts left Cornell in a bad hole, with the ball on its five-yard stripe.

Borhman punted out on the 16, and it looked as if State had been presented a golden opportunity. But Cornell held again, knocking down two passes, and McCullough punted out of danger to midfield, then stepped in to intercept a pass on Cornell's 35. A Hole at Center That interception set up Cornell's final score. Landsberg found a mighty hole at center and burst through it to Ohio's 23 a 42-yard dash. Again Landsberg found that hole and reached Ohio's eight.

Three downs lost two yards, but Drahos, standing on the 18-yard mark, booted the field goal that insured the victory. Ohio State tried desperately to score, but its passing attack failed in its hour of need. With seconds left to play, Ohio State gambling on a touchdown surrendered the ball on downs on its 32. Cornell ran two plays at center as time ran out. The "game" continued, however, when an Ohio player ran off the field with the ball.

Cornell players chased him. They wanted that trophy. There was a flurry of blocking as the squads mixed in pursuit of the leather. Cornell Freshmen Win Har rier Race Cornell frosh cross country team defeated Colgate frosh. 20-35.

WATERS Out on the practice field late this afternoon will trot an honored Cor nell football team. Not in years have students and Ithacans staged a reception even remotely resembling the royal welcome accorded the Big Red players and their coach, Carl Snavely, as they detrained Sunday afternoon at the Lehigh Valley Railroad station. That welcome was richly deserved, for in beating Ohio State, 23-14, before 50,000 spectators in the stadium at Columbus, Ohio, Saturday, the Cornell team a real football unit if there ever was one turned in the top performance of the day and, in the opinion of-many, of the current football season. That performance, marked by a resurgence of defensive strength and by lightning-like offensive thrusts after a power-packed Ohio State eleven had turned in two touchdowns, will 'not soon be forgotten. Today the squad, somewhat battered from the battle of Columbus, will start lining up its sights on Columbia, due on Schoellkopf Field Saturday afternoon.

With the Co lumbia, Dartmouth, and Pennsylvania contests still on the slate, the squad will defend its 1938 Ivy League title. Out in Columbus (until approximately 4:20 p. m. Saturday, Oct. 28, 1939) they didn't think much of the Ivy League.

They do now. For the Cornell team's performance converted many a hard-bitten disciple of football as played in the Big Ten Conference. Cornell instilled a lot of respect for the eastern brand of football in that game Saturday. They won't forget it in Columbus for some time, nor in Ithaca. Just a 'Breather Before the game the prevailing opinion was that Cornell was just a "breather" for Ohio State.

Cornell quietly fostered the idea that it had no business on the same field with the Buckeyes. And for some minutes of that ball game it looked as if Cornell might be right up to the point that Cornell, with reserves in key spots in the lineup, delivered a "one-two" punch to the Ohio State button. Those two telling blows, seven plays apart in the second quarter, backed the Buckeyes into the corner. And it was Walt Scholl, a 159-pounder, who swung most of the leather. But even Scholl's show demonstrated the way Cornell is playing football as a team this year.

When the final tally was in, when all the thrills had been absorbed, when the game had been replayed countless times in retrospect, one fact stood out: Team play of the highest order, team morale won that ball game. School had magnificent, downfield blocking on his 79-year run for Cornell's first touchdown. Scholl had Jack (Swifty) Borhman winging down to catch the pass that covered 62 yeard And produced the second touchdown. And Hal Mc- Cullough, the third touchdown scorer, and Nick Drahos, who booted five points home, they too had the support of a well-knit, finely-coached football team. And vital in all these plays was the blocking of Wralt Matuszczak.

It was Walt who cleared the path at the line of scrimmage for Scholl's long run. And it was Walt who directed the team's attack as field general. He didn't make a mis take all day. Outplayed as it was in the first and early second period when Ohio State marched 87 yards in relentless, ground-consuming smashes and covered 72 yards in another drive sparked by a brilliant 38-yard forward pass, Cornell had the courage and the finesse to erase a 14-point deficit with two brilliantly conceived and executed plays. Defense Revised A few words in the dressing foom, a revision of defensive strategy, and the team was ready for the Ohio State attack in the second half.

The test came early in the third period when, leading, 20-14, Cornell stopped the Ohioans cold on the Big Red's 11-yard mark. The victory seemed more certain then, for Cornell had finally solved the tricky Ohio attack that sent four strong, fa'st ball carriers into the Big Red ramparts. And not long after, early in the fourth period, Cornell turned the trick again, halting Ohio on the 14-yard line and answering the desperate Buckeye challenge with a drive of its own that set up the three-point field goal victory's best insurance. In the Cornell cast of characters, besides Scholl, Borhman, McCullough, and Drahos, were Al Kelley, a fine defensive end; Frank Finner-an, the center who made plenty of tackles; Howard Dunbar who play, ed a whale of a game at guard, and Mort Landsberg, who turned in a real job of fullbacking. Landsberg played most of the first half, then gave way to Ken Brown.

But Brownie was hurt, and Mort returned to action. Cornell opened up with its 'mousetrap-ping in the final period to shake Landsberg loose on two breathtaking shots through the center. Mort burst out of the line for gains of 42 and 13 yards to set up the held goal shot for Drahos. Yes, those Cornell players richly deserved Sunday's great big hand. The game in detail: Bad for 22 Minutes For 22 minutes it looked bad for Cornell as Ohio State demonstrated the power of its running attack in no uncertain terms.

Cornell had stopped Ohio's first thrust at midfield as a State pass missed fire. Then Cornell had shown a flash of offensive power as Jim Schmuck broke loose for 18 yards on an, end-aiound play and first down on Cornell's 45. There McCullough tossed a pass to Ray Jenkins for 11 yards and another first down on Ohio's 44. A penalty New York UP) The "payoff" month of the college football season November starts this week with just the kind of games that can be expected in the more important half of the campaign. The first half of the battle for national honors, winding Up last Saturday, produced about the results that could be expected.

There were innumerable "upsets" at the start, dwindling in number as the teams began to show real strength and weakness. The end of October found not more than 11 unbeaten and untied survivors still in the race for the mythical national crown. Starting part two, the "major" unbeaten and untied teams are: East Cornell, Duqeusne, Catholic; South Tennessee, Kentucky; Midwest Notre Dame, Michigan; Southwest Texas A. and Rocky Mountain Colorado Mines; Pacific Coast Oregon State, San Jose (Cal.) State. Dartmouth Unbeaten Tied but still undefeated are Dartmouth and Georgetown, in the East; Tulane, North Carolina and Richmond, in the South; Nebraska and Oklahoma, in the Midwest; Southern California and UCLA, on the West Coast, and Utah (tied twice), in the Rocky Mountain Big Seven.

Not all of these teams, of course, can be considered national title prospects. By the same token, there are a lot of real contenders which have been beaten, often by one point that sometimes spells the difference between a perfect season and a ruined one. The situation in the East shapes up like this for the first weekend of November: It's been a long time since any one team did so much to aid the prestige of Eastern football as Cornell did last Saturday by whipping Ohio State, 23-14, after spotting the Big Ten "powerhouse" the first two touchdowns. That triumph automatically installed the Big Red as the East's No. 1 power, and next Saturday's game against Columbia, despite the Lions' decisive 26-7 win over Virginia Military, shouldn't hurt Cornell's stock.

Duquesne, 13-0 winner over Texas Tech Friday, faces another stiff intersectional test against Marquette, and Catholic, 14-0 winner over Miami, meets Tulsa of the Missouri Valley Conference. Dartmouth to riay Eli Dartmouth encounters its traditionally-troublesome enemy. Yale, but off the Green's easy 16-0 win over Harvard and Yale's 27-7 licking by" Michigan, Dartmouth figures to remain undefeated. Georgetown, after beating George Washington 7-0, meets West Virginia, which tied South Carolina, 6-6, Friday. The biggest games on the Eastern schedule pit Army, which hasn't shown much this season, against Notre Dame and Harvard against Princeton, which tuned up with a 26-12 win over Brown.

Notre Dame's fine unbeaten team just managed to stave off Carnegie Tech, 7-6, while the Cadets routed Ursinus, 46-13. Pennsylvania, knocked out of the picture by a 30-6 licking from North Carolina, meets Navy, 15-7 Victim of Clemson. Fordham, which came back as an Eastern threat by whipping Pitt, 27-13, tackles Rice's hapless Owls in an intersectional test. New York 14-13 winner over a stubborn Georgia team, eases off against Lafayette. Boston College and Holy Cross, still ranked among the Eastern leaders, play Auburn and Providence, respectively.

Olympic Transfer To Detroit Looms New York UP) The 1940 Olympics became an international guessing game today because of an announcement from Olympic headquarters in Switzerland that they might be transferred from Helsinki, Finland, to Detroit. Nobody could be sure what it was all about, inasmuch as Fin land still is planning to hold the games and Detroit has not asked for them recently, and isn't sure it wants them on such short notice. There perhaps has been no more startling "communique" since Europe's war began than the proclam. ation of the international Olmypic committee in Lausanne Sunday that the 1940 games would be held in Detroit if Finland renounced its right to stage them. The committee's communique said all national Olympic committees had been polled as to whether they would send teams to Helsinki and that if their replies were negative, as many were expected to be, Finland would renounce and clear the way for removal of the Olympics to the United States where many of the neutral nations were certain to compete.

Giants to Test Detroit Lions Chicago UP) Detroit's surprising Lions should know the worst about their national pro football title aspirations in another week of battling.

The Lions, who are matching the play of the Green Bay Packers stride for stride in the National League's western division, engage the titleholding New York Giants in Detroit next Sunday in a pivotal clash. Detroit, New York and Green Bay all clicked Sunday-with well-earned victories. Their three games and the Cleveland-Pittsburgh tilt drew a total of 101,514 spectators. Gus Henderson's Lions tlipped the Chicago Bears in a manner even more decisive than the 10-0 score indicates. The Lions now have won five of six games, but face a murderous schedule.

After taking on the Giants a wek hence they play the Bears again, Cleveland Rams, jWashington and Green Bay. Green Bay matched Detroit's won-lost record by handing the Redskins their first defeat, 24-14. Washington's defeat left the Giants alone in first place in the eastern division. The New Yorkers defeated Brooklyn, 7 to 6, to remain the only undefeated team in the league. In the day's other game Cleveland and Pittsburgh battled to a 14-14 tie, breaking Pitt's six-game losing streak.

IC Frosh Defeat Alfred, 25-5 In what may have been their last game, the Ithaca College freshmen gridders defeated the Alfred frosh, 25-6, at George Junior Republic field, Freeville, Saturday afternoon. The game was switched from Percy Field when Ithaca High School athletic officials requested the use of that field for parking space. Coach Ben Light isn't sure whether his freshmen will see action again, against an outside foe. An effort is being made to book a game. If the effort fails the cubs will wind up with a regular game against the college jayvees.

They have played three games now. They lost to the St. Lawrence Frosh and tied the Clarkson Frosh. The Ithacans were on the ball every minute of the battle at Freeville to score twice on pass and one on a blocked kick. The fourth score came on an end around after a march of 75 yards.

Walt Nash, Cazenovia boy, and regular tackle, blocked an Alfred punt in the first period and Center Howie Pultz ran it 20 yards to the goal in the first period. In the second a reserve pivotman, Roy Jackson, intercepted an aerial and ran 40 yards. Walt Christ kicked the point and Ithaca was ahead, 13-0, at the half. In the second half Nash, backing up the line, intercepted a low, flat pass and ran 25 yards for a payoff and Charley Press ran the end around 15 yards. Alfred came back late in the game to score on the Ithaca reserves.

They did it after a 50-yard drive. On the Alleys Inter -Boro League Pts. Pta. Dryden Hotel 36 Dryden Fire. 21 Dryden Inn 36 Caroline 2 19 Caroline 1 33 Willow Pt.
