BY EDWARD BURNS. (Picture on page 3, Sports.) The University of Chicago's Ma4 roons, starved and bullied these many moons by unsympathetic neighbors in the Big Ten, yesterday back into eminence in the football firmament by crushing the University of Michigan's proud Wolverines, 27 to 0, before 25,000 at Stagg field. This was the worst licking a Maroon herd ever gave the Wolverines and one of the worst thumpings the warriors from, Ann Arbor ever absorbed on any ter. rain. It was something more than an upset.

It certainly was a rout. The erstwhile lowly Maroons had everything they slyly hoped they had on offense and they had infinitly more than they thought they possessed on defense, as attested by the fact the Wolverines only once penetrated Chicago territory as deep as the 28 yard line.

Champaign, IlL, Oct. 13.That bothersome point after touchdown which last year cost Illinois its two most important football games rose up again today to decide the Red Grange homecoming battle between Illinois and Ohio State in Memorial stadium.

This time the point was on the Illinois side of the ledger and the Illini walked off the field after 60 minutes of the wildest football seen here in many years with a hard won 14 to 13 victory. Even then, Illinois bad to try twice to scare that one point that snatched the victory away from a fast, alert, hard running Buckeye eleven that battled until the final gun, before it finally succumbed. First Kick Is Wide. That point that bri tight victory to Illinois over Ohio State for the first time In five years came in the first quarter after the first touchdown of the game at a time when the apparent superiority of the Illini was being manifested so convincingly that hardly any one thought it would matter In the final result. And Illinois required two chances before it made the point.

It was scored by the flying Swede, Les Lindberg of Lockport, who had a second try at the goal posts because Ohio State had been offside when his first place kick went wide. Capt. Regis Monahan of the Buckeyes, who kicked the point after touchdown that beat Illinois at Columbus last year, I to 6, missed his attempt for the point after Ohio State's first touchdown and it cost his eleven the game. BY IRVING VAUGHAN. Cidair(' Tribune Press Service.

Lincoln, Oct. supposedly set-up eleven with the power of a giant cannon cracker and the blast carried Iowa's flashy team to an unexpected defeat before 33,000 today. The score was 14 to 13, making the third one point defeat the Cornhuskers have inflicted on their neighboring state rivals in their last four meetings. The Hawkeyes, apparently sure of themselves, started slowly. The Corn.

huskers also started slowly but for a different. reason. They seemed awed by advance reports of their foes' strength. Then, after two listless periods, Nebraska cut loose. A red jerseyed athlete went over the goal for a touchdown.

Within a few minutes Iowa countered with a touchdown but missed the kick for the extra point and this was the difference. that still stood after one more touchdown had been registered by each side in the final quarter. Huskers Stop Crayne. Iowa's ball carrying strength was centered in Full Back Dick Crayne and Oze Simmons, the Negro boy who made himself famous a week ago against Northwestern. These were the two men on whom the Corn.

huskers concentrated their defensive fire. Crayne raked the Nebraska line frequently for short gains but was stopped in many of the pinches. Simmons repeatedly was away on apparently serious threat, but never got so far on his way that he couldn't be brought down before it was too late. The Hawkeyes, however, went down fighting and made a spectacle of the final quarter. First they bounced back with seven points, which balanced seven Nebraska had scored a few minutes before.

Then they opened up with a dazzling display of passing and running. But the runs were never lengthy enough and the passes were continually slipping from the arms of the would-be receivers. With only a few seconds of play remaining, the Cornhuskers intercepted one of these and their one point margin was safe. Oze Drops the Ball. Seventh Victory In Series.

BY WILFRID SMITH. (Pictures on page 3, Sports.) Chicago Tribune Press Service. Notre Dame, Oct. run. a pass and an Intercepted pass, three brilliant Notre Dame plays in the second period, gave the Irish an 18 to 7 victory over Purdue this after.

noon. Forty-five thousand, the largest crowd to gather in Memorial stadium in three years, saw Notre Dame's first victory under the guidance of Elmer Layden, the full back of the Four Horsemen eleven, a triumph gained at the expense of Layden's team mate, Noble Kizer, who ten years ago blocked for Layden's line smashes and runs. George Melinkovich, powerful Notre Dame right half back, ran 64 yards for the first touchdown. Two minutes later he caught Mike Layden's pass for a gain of 34 yards and hammered 3 yards through the line for the second touchdown. Then in the closing seconds of the half, Fred Carideo, a substitute for Don Elser at full back.

intercepted Duane Purvis' forward pass and raced 75 yards for the third Irish score. Carter Makes Touchdown. The Boilermakers drew the consolation touchdown in the fourth quarter when Jim Carter led them 66 yards in a drive against an Irish eleven composed of fourth and fifth team men. and crossed the goal in ten plays. Dan Toriello, Purdue quarter back, place kicked the extra point, the only successful try of the afternoon.

Purdue might have recovered after Melinkovich's touchdown sprint. There still was a possibility Purdue might come back even after Layden's first down pass which caught the Boilermaker secondary unprepared. But when Carideo dashed through more than half of the Purdue players, aided by a quickly formed screen of blockers and finishing with a spurt which carried him in front of three pursuers, the Boilermakers received the coup de grace. 1 Actually, measured by yards gained. the teams were equal.

In first downs Purdue held a margin of 11 to 5. But Irish alertness, confidence, and revival of fighting spirit, accounted for the difference in points. Purdue Lacks Confidence. Purdue was not confident Despite a first quarter in which the Boilermakers hemmed Notre Dame far in Irish territory, Purdue lacked the vital spark which was needed to knit its players into a well drilled unit. Lack of confidence, no doubt, can be traced to the Injured Duane Purvis, who played well, but not exceptionally, and more in particular to the fact that he alternated with Jim Carter Since Purvis could not kick because of his injured ankle, it was necessary to keep Leon Dailey and other punters in the game.

Carter cannot punt. Hence Purvis' passing was not backed by the threat of Carter's running. And In this fashion Purdue's offense collapsed. Purdue held the whip in the first period. Had the Boilermakers capitalized on opportunities the entire trend of the game might have been altered.

Somebody's going to hit the turf pretty soon, and it's going to Duane Purvis, Purdue back, who is shown here being tackled by a Notre Dame player who means business. (TRIBUNE Photos. It was the seventh the Ma4 roons have won from the Wolverines in the 22 games since the series began in 1892, and the third shutout The most points the Maroons ever ran up on Michigan was 21, in 1897, and that year the Wolverines were able to ring Up 12 points. This sweet victory, won by the long oppressed against a team that for five years prior to this season has won. all or a piece of the conference championship and a team which one short year ago was rated the best in the nation, will furnish an indefinite, amusing topic on the University of Chicago campus, for yesterday's affair was the last game of a five year contract.

There can be no game next year, nor the following. Thus laurels won by the inspired Maroons yesterday cannot be plucked away until 1937, if then. The 1934 Maroons are no flash in the pan. They rolled over Michigan yesterday because they knew what they were trying to do and had the talent to do it. They ran and they blocked.

They kicked and they returned kicks. Moreover certain Haut young gents whom we shall soon discuss gave every evidence that they can do their stuff many times for the restored glory of the Midway. A Mr. Bartlett Appears. Those patient U.

of C. bugs who had been growing paler and paler with each trip to their and other Big Ten football parks knew that one Jay Berwanger would play a great game against the Wolverines. In E. mediocre cast last year, a season in which the Maroons scored only one touchdown in conference competition, the Dubuque iron man had. shown stellar talents.

Berwanger scored two of the Maroons' touchdowns, the first two, yesterday. But they hadn't heard or thought COLLEGE FOOTBALL O. K.WITH KING TO LOSE WIFE, BUT HIS DOG-1 effective.

M. 6. Ohio Rallies in Third. It was a hard fought, thrilling strug. gle in which the Buckeyes pitted a great running attack against the shifty, intricate passing offensive of a lighter Illinois eleven.

For the en tire first half, the Il lini line outfought the Scarlet and Gray forwards and kept Ohio State's great running backs in check, but late in the third quarter, trailing by 14 points and apparently badly beaten, The Buckeyes rallied and carried the battle to the Illinois goal, rushing over two touchdowns almost before the Illini realized they were on the retreat. With only a few minutes remaining, Ohio State had one last chance to snatch the victory from the fire, but again the Illini checked the Buck. eyes' running attack and Capt. Monahan's last bid for a place kick from the 40 yard line failed. Big Gains Through Air.

Illinois attempted 13 forward passes and completed 8. Three were incom plete and two were intercepted by Ohio State, one of these interceptions stopping Illinois' first threat at the Buckeye goal. Ohio State attempted 15 passes and completed 9. Fi.e were Incomplete and one was intercepted. Illinois gained a total of 159 yards The flashy Simmons, feared at the start, and still feared until that Iowa pass was intercepted was guilty of an offense that may have kept the early part of the game scoreless.

After a dash through the Cornhusker wall, Oze dropped the ball just as he was being Nebraska recovered on its 18 yard line and a threatened tcuchdown was thwarted. If that was an offense, the colored boy compensated for it when in the fourth period he received a pass to put Iowa in position to score its second touchdown. The first indication that Nebraska might eventually prove itself in unexpected fashion came late in the second period. After being outplayed at every turn the Cornhuskers opened a drive in this period and marched 43 yards through passing by Bauer and plunging by Francis. The Hawkeyes WEST.

He broke through repeatedly to toss the Cardinal backs for losses and on several occasions he raced far afield to bring down a Stanford ball carrier hard bent for the goal.

He was applauded as he left the game in the closing minutes. Bob Swisher. Purple safety man who played most of the game, was given a warm tribute as he walked from the field. His handling of punts saved much ground for his team. Northwestern staved off two Stan.
