Chicago Trlbane Press Service. (Picture on page 3, Sport:) Minneapolis, Oct. 11. Minnesota's football machine crushed the ambitious Illinl this afternoon with ridiculous ease. From the first play from scrimmage, on which Bill Daley ran seventy-two yardsfor a touchdown, the Gophers had complete command, running up three touchdowns In the first quarter, but mercifully slowing the tempo of their attack to gain their first Big Nine victory, 34 to 6.

Minne sota is defending champion. Illinois probably has a good little team. The opening day throng of 50,433 suspected as much in the final period when the Illinl collected 19 of their 11 first downs and linked three of them together to prepare for a touchdown pass by Don Griffin to Liz Astroth. But before Illinois ever reached the center of the field, Minnesota had. its five touchdowns and the battle was over.

Gophers Are Just Too Good. The truth about today's game, if It can be called that, is that Illinois was outweighed, outmanned, and over matched. That the Illinl fought brave-ly Is beside the point. They had the same chance to win they would have had to stop a tank barehanded. The inexorable drive of Minnesota's Bruce Smith, Bob Daley, Warren Plunkett, Herman Frickey.

and Bob Higgins to name a few of the Gopher backs stemmed from superior lino, play and devastating open field blocking. When the Illinl tacklers occa-sionally sneaked thru the golden Jer seyed blockers, they had difficulty hanging on to the ball carriers. Minnesota used 43 players, changing them repeatedly. Perhaps this slowed down the attack, but in available men the Gophers had an advantage, since the Illinl only mustered 23 in their ineffectual attempt to check the champions. Illinl Line Outclassed.

The disparity between the teams Is revealed by the first half statistics which show Minnesota leading, 27 to 0, with a record of 258 yards gained by rushing to a minus record of 44 yards for Illinois. For the 60 minutes the Gophers piled up 20 first downs. 19 of them by rushing; gained 414 yards by rushing and 32 on one pass. Illinois finally had a net gain of 97 yards, but completed only three passes. One of these was by penalty for Interference.

Illini partisans had hoped that deft, accurate ball handling and forward and lateral passes might offset Minnesota's admittedly superior power. But the Illinois forwards were so impotent that they frequently were brushed aside as readily as an adult might storm thru a village of Lilliputians. Illinois' delayed plays, spins and fakes before passes were thrown forward or laterally, could not be developed. On occasions a burly Gopher would arrive in the back field as quickly as the balL Moreover, Minnesota relied on a five man line to rush the passers and ball handlers with the result that the Gophers presented an impregnable secondary. One Fine Illinl March.

In the third period one Illinois pass was ruled complete for interference. Two more passes in the 16 attempts were completed. The second was the nine yard touchdown toss to Astroth. The Illini richly deserved thei (Continued on page 4, column 2. FARRIS (motT) Don Clawson, Northwestern full Farris.

Wisconsin back, and races 25 Oregon State Ends Stanford Streak10 to 0 Corvallis, Oct. 11 OP). Stan ford's football dynasty, its Rose bowl hopes and a great victory string came to an end today on the rain soaked field of Oregon State college. The score was 10 to 0 and the Beavers won all the way. This was the day the football world had been waiting for.

The formation was stopped at last. It melted in a downpour. The razzle-dazzle that had carried the Indians thru 12 victories, unbeaten last year In a Coast conference championship drive climaxed by a Rose bowl victory, bogged down on a mushy field. Beavers Score In Hurry. The points that won the game were scored on a field goal seven minutes after the opening kickoff.

The Bea vers had charged fifty-eight yards to Stanford's 8 yard line. Then Warren Simas stepped Into the lead role. He's a sophomore and substitute quarter back. He came In, took aim and kicked the ball thru from sixteen yards out. Oregon State made its victory more certain in the third period.

A substitute Stanford back. Bob Mitchell, fumbled deep in his team's territory. Quentin Greenough. OSC center, fell on the ball fourteen yards from the goal. Eight plays later, the Beavers crossed the goal line.

Bob Dethman, left half, dived over center from the 1 foot line on fourth down. Simas came in to make the extra tally. More than 22,000 fans, crowding the stadium to capacity, made the welkin ring with their thunderous ovation to the Oregon State team and the coach. Singularly, it was a former University of Nebraska player, Lon Stiner, who became the coaching toast of the country. It was doubly pleasing to the baldish yet young coach.

He evened up in part for his alma mater. Stanford whipped Nebraska in the Rose bowl last New Year's day. Rain Slows Formation. It rained just before game time and almost thruout. In the last quarter, the downpour was so heavy It made visibility poor.

Despite pregame predictions by Head Coach Clark Shaughnessy and his aids that wet weather would not handicap the formation, the reverse was true. Dry balls were used frequently but they became slippery almost at once. All-America Quarter Back Frank Albert, striving desperately to bring his team back from the brink of defeat, couldn't grip the ball to complete many, of his southpaw passes. quarter back, intended yards for a Twar NIbww Graham HI. kroford.

BY ARCH WARD. (Pictttroa mm pmgm 3, Sport:) One of the strongest teams that ever has come out of Northwestern yesterday overwhelmed Wisconsin, 41 to 14. in the opening Big Nine conference football game for both universities. For the first 30 minutes it was a brilliant, thrilling ball game. North-western, stunned momentarily by the speed of Wisconsin's early attack, led at the half.

20 to 14. and most ef the Wildcats supporters among the crowd of 40.000 gladly would have accepted a final score of that margin. Bill De Correvont settled the outcome, however, with a fifty-one yard return of a punt for a touchdown a few minutes after the start of the third quarter. De Correvont's spectacular dash touched off an offensive spurt that rolled up three touchdowns before any semblance of order was restored to Wisconsin's ranks. Regulars Get a Rest.

The Wildcats, with an eye toward the game with Michigan next week, played the last quarter with a lineup made up mainly of third string talent. The raffle between the Northwestern bench and the field of battle was so heavy in the closing minutes that the scene looked like State and Madison at the rush hour. The Purple employed 40 men in piling up the most one-sided score the series has produced since the Badgers shut out the Wildcats. 27 to 0. in 1921.

It wasn't an anemic, disheartened outfit that Northwestern encountered. The Badgers came out full of fire. They stopped their opponents in their tracks the first time Northwestern laid hold of the ball and then pro- reeded to show the Wildcats as devastating an offense as Dyche Stadium crowds have seen in years Harder Sparks Attack. Their line was functioning effectively, a sophomore full back named Pat Harder was running wild, and the team's aerial plays were clicking. It wasn't long, however, until Northwestern showed that it had everything Wisconsin possessed and In greater quantity.

The Purple line stiffened as the contest progressed and the finest array of backs you'll find on any college squad this season outran, outmaneuvered. and completely dazzled the Badger defense. When you try to single out Northwestern backs for special mention, you immediately are in trouble. Otto Graham, star of the Wildcats 51 to 3 victory over Kansas State a week ago, gave another glittering performance in accounting for two touchdowns. De Correvont displayed tremendous speed in getting away for his fifty-one yard touchdown run and used fine headwork in out maneuvering Wisconsin's Mark Hoskins.

who had a chance to tackle him on the 15 yard line. Floyd Chambers, Ike Kepford. Don Clawson, George Benson, and Don BuSmire all took turns in sparking North western's drives. Badgers Take Wind Advantage. Buff mi re.

a sophomore from Grand Rapids. Minn, averaged 8.5 yards In his two ball carrying attempts. Graham had nine trys for an average gain of 7.7. Harder, the Badgers' leading ground gainer, reeled off an average of seven yards in his 12 trips with ball. The fact that Northwestern Triage only 11 first downs compared with Wisconsin's 9.

IChlrago Tribune Press Wervlre.) Ann Arbor, Oct. 11. Michigan's Wolverines, bulging with muscles, this afternoon primed themselves leisurely for important engagements Immediately ahead. By sheer power which was seasoned occasionally with bits of deception they literally ripped the uniforms off an almost helpless Pitt Panther eleven to triumph by the one sided margin of 40 to 0 before 34,403. The victors went about their task as if there was no particular reason to hurry or accumulate anything more than a minimum of points.

In the first two periods they registered only once and this accomplishment blossomed from one of many blunders by an inferior foe. But thru those two quarters the Michigan weight wore down the Panthers and the real scoring storm finally broke. Fourteen points were rushed across in the third session and 20 more in a fourth period assault that had Pitt hanging on the ropes. Nelson Is Spectacular. With their steam roller offense functioning impressively the Wolver ines had no need of spectacular individual achievements, nevertheless a few were tossed in to vary the monotony.

These came mainly from Dave Nelson, who filled In at left half whenever the bruising Tom Kuzma felt the need of rest. Nelson put on one fifty-one yard touchdown dash which was nullified by a penalty. As further proof he could step he set up scoring incident with another dash of forty-nine yards. And later he reeled off twenty-eight yards to experience the pleasure of carrying the ball across for the final six points. Shattered as they were by the Michigan line the Panthers didn't threaten seriously even once.

The closest they ever came while the ball was in their possession was to the Wolverines' 34 yard line. They made this advance when a young man named Edgar Jones was introduced as one of their back field members in the second period. He Intercepted a pass and then caused Michigan some concern by throwing a few of his own. But it proved only a flash. The March Begins.

The Wolverines' initial touchdown began to take form midway in the first quarter when, after receiving a punt from Pitt on their own 28 yard line, they uncorked a long third down pass.

A homecoming football crowd of 300 went wild today altho their favorites, Rio Grande college's Redmen, lost as usual. Not since 1937 have the Red-men finished on the long end of the count, but today they scored their most impressive point total in three years seven. Bluefleld, W. won. 25 to 7.

The contest was the only home game on Rio's schedule, but they got along in this hamlet population, 204 without a public address system, a score board, any lineup or other announcements. Twice the game was held up while spectators hunted balls booted out of the field and down a deep ravine, which drops off just out of bounds. There were only 200 seats in the bleacher and chair section between the 40 and 20 yard lines. The other 100 spectators just wandered about the field. The only two 50 yard line seats, choice section for big time college games, were occupied by sub stitutes.

Dick Kieppe, Michigan State half back, broke up a traditionally close game between the Spartans and Marquette this afternoon by returning a punt 57 yards for a touchdown. This cracked a 7 to 7 tie and gave Michi gan State a 13 to 7 victory. Midway in the last quarter Kieppe executed his coup. The Hilltoppers, deep in their own territory, were kicking on third down. Bob McCahlll sent a high punt spiraling beyond midfieid while the Marquette ends charged down on Kieppe, who was waiting for it on his own 43 yard line.

Kleppe's on His Way. He made the ratch. sidestepped as the first of the Marquette tacklers dove at him. For the next few seconds Kieppe was strictly on his own before blockers could form to pro tect him. Sweeping off to the right, he got clear of three or four of the enemy forwards and then he headed down the sidelines.

As he passed the Marquette 40 yard line his convoy formed and all the rest of the way he was well screened. And that was the ball game. Not that the Spartans didn't have some busy minutes thereafter. There was a constant threat from that Marquette passing attack, which had tied the score by going from the kick off to a touchdown In a little more than three minutes just before the end of the first half. With Jim Richardson doing the tossing, it threatened again In those closing minutes of the game.

But the Spartans broke it up in a desperate defense of their six point lead. Fumbles Hurt Spartans. The Michigan State running attack was consistently superior to Marquette's, but fumbles, penalties, and other mishaps stopped it several times when it seemed on the verge of getting somewhere. Marquette attempted to vary Its passing attack with a ground game, but the running plays were nearly always broken against a stubborn Michigan State line. The Spartans launched the drive toward their first touchdown after an exchange of fumbles had given them the ball on their own 13 yard line.

After Bob Sherman made four teen yards in two thrusts off tackle, the Marquette line braced and on fourth down Kieppe went back to kick. The Hilltoppers rushed him so swiftly he apparently decided he'd never get the punt off, so ho dodged (Continued paga 4. eolunut CI BY CHARLES BARTLETT. I Chicago Tribune Press Service. 1 Atlanta.

Oct. 11. Angelo Ber-telli is still pitching, Steve Juzwik is hitting again, and the Irish are undefeated in three games. That, in short, is the story of Notre Dame's 20 to 0 triumph over Georgia Tech this summery afternoon on Grant field. It also is another chapter in the 1941 progress of an Irish eleven that has undergone more personal and technical shuffling than any other in recent years, and if this afternoon Is to be regarded as a test of this switching policy, the Irish can definitely be set down as one of the republic's top teams.

Bertelli, the blond Italian sophomore from Massachusetts, didn't have to throw his curves as much today as ho did in Notre Dame's conquests of Arizona and Indiana, but his average is still right smart. Angelo completed four out of seven, giving him a three game aggregate of 22 completions in 35 attempts for three hundred thirty-one yards. One of the four was a touchdown toss to Right End George Murphy for the first Notre Dame score, midway thru the first quarter. And while it wasn't a forward, there was a deft Bertelli pass in a baffling reverse that mystified the Georgians and led to a sixty-seven yard scoring run by Steve Juzwik. Juzwik Finally Gets Started.

Juzwik today played the sort of game his tutors have expected of him. The sturdy little Pole from Chicago's northwest side was not up to par in the Arizona game. Last week he set up two of the touchdowns against Indiana. Today Steve got down to business. In addition to the sixty-seven yard dash he drove over in the third quarter for the final Irish touchdown, and made good on two of three tries for extra points, giving him a game total of 14.

The third Irish score originated from the alert recovery of a Tech fumble by Bob Dove, who played a magnificent defensive game at left end for Notre Dame. Dove, Bertelli, Juzwik and other members of the Irish varsity actually worked only 35 minutes of the game's 60, the first and third quarters and five minutes of the second period. The Irish first and second teams, it should be pointed out, were guilty of four hold ing penalties, making a total of 14 for the season. They made eleven first downs to Tech's five. Loss of Bosch Hurts Tech.
