La Crosse Peds in 34 to 7 Win Wildcats Break Loose to Trim Illinois, 13 to 0 Bill De Correvont's Punting Helps in Victory BY STEVE SNIDER U. P. Staff Correspondent EVANSTON, Oct.

28 Northwestern, baflled for more than two periods by an Illinois defense alternately employing five, six and seven man lines, finally shook loose its attack in the last half and whipped the Hlini 13 to 0 today before a home-coming crowd of 35,000. Except for one drive started in the first period and carried over Into the second. Northwestern was helpless during the first half against the tricky defense designed by Bob Zuppke. But in the third period the Wildcats shook loosa little Paul Soper for a twisting touchdown run of 74 yards and added another six points in the fourth when Illinois, passing desperately in ts own territory, lost possession on a pass interception on its. own 29-yard line.

Soper Shakes Loose Until Soper broke out of nowhere midway in the third period it was a bitter struggle typical of their 33 previous meetings. Illinois was making one of its few advances when the Wildcats took the ball on a pass interception by Dick Richards on the Northwestern 26. On the first play, Soper shot into a quickly opened hole at left tackle, slipped thru as the Illini linemen pawed at him and burst into the open. He cut for the sidelines and outraced Fullback George Rettinger who was angling to make the tackle. Soper crossed the goal line standing trp and held the ball while Fullback Don Clawson placekicked the extra point.

The entire fourth period was played on Illinois ground, due largely to the accurate punting of Bill De Correvont. He drove his punts out of bounds on the three, one and four yard lines. BUIs Last Punt Sets Stage De Correvont's last punt set up the second touchdown. Passing from his own eight yard line Ralph Ehni dropped one into the arms of Tuffy Chambers, Northwestern right halfback, on the 29. On third down De Correvont flipped a 10-yard pass to Ted Grefe, who was forced out of bounds on the Illinois three.

De Correvont made two and Clawson hammered over right guard for the touchdown. Claw-son's attempted conversion struck the left goal post and bounded outside making the score. Northwestern 13, Illinois 0. After the kickoff Illinois led by Chuck Purvis, passed its way 43 yards to the Northwestern 22 and there lost the ball on downs as the game ended. Northwestern clearly was superior on the basis of statistics, rolling up nine first downs to seven and gaining a total of 254 yards to 81 for Illinois.

Up and Smashes (Pitt by 27 to 13 1st Half Is All Pitt But Rams Rally for Win NEW YORK, Oot. 28 'AP)-All the pentup fury and frustration of three scoreless ties Fordham and Pitt played in the Polo grounds from 1935-37 burst loose today in a furious football fight that Rams finally captured in the last period 27 to 13. It was a violent spectacle full of fumbles, fights, penalties and surprises, and the 36,218 spectators gorged themselves on the feast. Tlie first half was Pitt's, the Panthers driving 60 yards for a touchdown the first time they got the ball and then scoring again on a pass 25 seconds before the half to lead 13 to 6. But they were outguessed, cut-lucked, and outplayed right down the line in the second half as Fordham tied the count in four minutes of the third period on a pass that gained 48 yards and won with great aplomb in the final stanza on a 99-yard touchdown run with a fumble by right end Vince Dennery and another score on a short buck by Dom Principe.

The sequence of their struggle went like this: In the early minutes of the game Pitt received a punt on its own 40 and paraded to a touchdown with fullback Ernie Bonelli diving over from the one yard line and Joe Rettinger place kicking the point. Dennery recovered a fumble on the Panther 32 and Jim Blumen-stock crashed across for a touchdown. The point was missed. The combination of a pass and penalty for roughness put Pitt on Fordham's 12 in one 42-yard step and another pass from Dick Cas-siano to Ken Kish was good for a score as the period closed. Poor Punting by Kish Poor punting by Kish hurt Pitt in the second half.

One of his kicks went eight yards early in the third period and gave the Rams the ball on the Panther 48. Blumenstor.k faded far to his right and Dennery raced well behind Pitt's safety, Cassiano, to dracr down the ball on the 11 and dash over. teve Kazlo place kicked the point after this and the two succeeding touchdowns. The play which ultimately licked the Panthers, actually and mentally, came on the start of the final period. A clipping penalty had helped Pitt deep into Fordham territory and they drilled to the one yard line, only to have the bail squirt out of Cassiano's arms and into Dennery's eager hands.

In the minutes that followed the game developed into a roughhouse and out of this confusion Fordhain pulled its final touchdown. Kish's punt from his own end zone went only 28 yards and Principe reversed to the two and smashed across on third down. NYU Trounces Georgia 14-13 NEW YORK, Oct. 28-UP With a battle of fists thrown in for good measure, New York university today defeated an enraged University of Georgia football team, 14 to 13, in a bruisin? struggle which had 20,000 spectators in Yankee stadium in a frenzy during most of the afternoon.

The Owen team worked very well together as a unit, and superb running by the Owen backs, Jackson, Catura, and Hoeper kept the Augusta team in the hole the entire afternoon. The play was consis-tantly in Augusta territory, and the visitors did not stand a show, from the opening whistle, on. The Purple scored their first marker in the first period, after a Owen fumble had obliterated an earlier scoring chance on the Augusta 15 yard line. Augusta forced to kick after the Owen line had held for plays, kocked to their 45 yard line. Catura reeled off 23 yards, off tackle, to the 22 yard line, and Hoeper, on the next play, drove the ball over for a touchdown, on a nice 22 yard run.

Catura passed to Jackson, for the extra point. Owen marched down the field again, but fumbled on the ten yard line, at the opening of the second quarter. Augusta was forced to punt, after making a first down, and Jackson returned the kick to the 45. Catura broke around end for a 20 yard run, placing the oval on the 25 yard marker, and another ten yard run by Catura gave Owen possession on the Augusta 15. Hoeper plunged to the 8 yard line, but 4 yards were lost on the next play, when a attempted end run failed.

Then Hoeper tossed a nice pass to Glenz-er, Owen end, in the striped area, for Owens second touchdown. Catura plunged the extra point. Owen scored another touchdown in the second quarter, after Jackson's punt return placed the Purple in position on Owen's 45. It took Just two plays to do it, for Catura snared Hoepers 15 yard heave to place the ball on the Augusta 40, and Jackson gathered in Hoepers flat pass on the next try and sprinted 40 yards up the sidelines for a tally. Hoeper plunged the extra point.

The Purple scored again in the 3rd, when they received possession of the ball on the 50 yard line, after Augusta had been forced to punt from deep in their own territory. Jackson snared a ten yard heave from Hoeper, to plane the ball on the 40, and Hoeper rang the bell again when he pitched on to Caturf for 8 yards. After two uneventfull plays, Catura raced around end, and evading the secondary, went some odd 30 yards for a touchown. Jackson's place kick attempt was wide. At this point the Owen reserves were sent in and the remaining period offered no scoring opportunitys for either outfit.

Nice running by Lubinski kept the Purple with their backs to the wall for the remainder of the contest.
