16. The Michigan football team, showing early punch and late staying power, beat Northwestern, 20 to 13, today. But before it was over the Wildcats lived up to their name. Fighting back with a flaming spirit after trailing, 20 to 6, they put on a finish that kept the 76,749 spectators on edge until the final gun went off. With a raging north by northwest wind flinging snow in their faces, the Northwestern players were backed 'up against their own goal line thruout the early stages.

With the aid of some brilliant running by Tom Harmon, Bob Westfall, and Harold Lockard, and an alert job of punt blocking by Ed Frutig, Michigan scored twice during the first period and again in the second. Between the second and third Wolverine touchdowns. Northwestern had shown a single effective flash when Bill DeCorrevont tossed a pass to Bob Motl that traveled about 35 yards thru the air. Motl took it on the 25 yard line and scored. Strong Finish Falls Short.

As the game wore on, the spectators were beginning to fear it would be a dull show. Michigan's lead seemed too firm to be threat College Football r-fssed Iowa's first visit to Notre Dame in history. Iowa used only 15 rr.f n. The outcome gave the Hawks a record of three victories in history in or Notre Dame to none for the The first was 10 to 7 in Iowa City in 1921. the second that 7 to 6 drama special in Iowa City a year apo.

Last year's Iowa victory in Notre Dame's seventh game cracked a slate of six straight triumphs. Today's ac- roi lishrm nt also gave the Irish their first defeat in seven games. In-ridentally, it was the first shutout for Notre Dame since the 13 to 0 Southern California victory in 1938. They Earn the Victory. Iowa got its opportunity on two fumbles after the half way mark in the linal period, but these Irish mis-indentures did not detract from the Hawkeycs' accomplishment.

The fumbles, the first by Capt. Milt Fiepul ting short and the goal was a long way off. The ball was snapped to Full Back Don Clawson. On a reverse he handed it to Ollie Hahnenstein and the fleet Wildcat back was on his way. Wide around the Michigan left end he swept.

Knox sin's Badgers, who have had more than their share of lean days, went touchdown crazy this afternoon on windswept Camp Randall stadium. They battered a supposedly talented Indiana university eleven into stray pieces to soar to their third Big Nine victory, 27 to 10, a margin more than sufficient to make amends for the 14 scored late in the second quarter on a forward and lateral, llerde to Swallow to Freda. Late in the fourth Tir I mi i i ri ti 1 M. quarter Knox intercepted a pass on the 42, had a pass ruled complete on the 19, and scored on a pass Sellman to Rosenow. Lineups: to 0 loss to the Hoosiers a year ago on the same field.

At the very outset, tho, they gave 16,000 Dad's day patrons the chills with a fumble which the Hoosiers ti jowug yard line, and the cc-end by Sieve l'agarus several minutes later on the first play -fifter Iowa had failed in an. attempted field goal from placement, apparently came when Milt and Steve were hit so hard their teeth rattled. Early in the decisive fourth period Notre Dame advanced-inside the Iowa 1 yard line where the Irish relinquished the ball. Jim Youel, kicking from the edge of his end zone, got off a beautiful punt to the Irish 42 yard line. Notre Dame made another rush goalward which faltered hen Piepul fumbled on the Iowa 12 yard line, a fumble which Capt.

Mike Enich recovered in the air and tarried to the Iowa 47 yard line before Piepul bumped him out of bounds. A second later Youel kicked ij the lush yard line, where followed a pass interception by Al Coup-pee, who was downed after Al had tun eight yards to the Irish 33. Then Came the Green got four yards, a pass by Youel missed, and Gallagher, replacing Earney Mertes, gained a yard. At this juncture, Gallagher made the ft foresaid try for a field goal from placement on the 25 yard line. The bafl was wide to the left and was taken out to the Irish 20.

Here was vhere Bagarus fumbled. Ken Pettit recovering on the 24. Green then tkirled his left end for eleven yards, after which he followed thru his right tackle for twelve more yards to the Irish 2 yard line before Gordy O'Reilly brought him down. Gallagher hit for a yard at center, then Green broke to his right, cut back thru the line and scored standing up. Gallagher's kick from placement was perfect.

Irish Lost Last Chance. Notre Dame's hopes of a tie were smothered shortly after the final kickoff. On the second play. Bob Saggau's pass was intercepted by George Frye on the Irish 34 yard line. Green was good for seven yards or two plays, then Iowa was set back yards for stalling.

Youel went, for t-even and Green for six, after which Gallagher juggled the ball and took a one yard loss. The same player came right back for a seven yard smash to the Irish 6 yard line. On the r.ext play Iowa smothered the ball, seconds before the final gun sounded. The only consolation for the startled Irish in their defeat is to be found in the big try which carried, the ball to within two feet of the Iowa goal at the start of the final quarter. f.

Saggau Has a Costly Slip. Late in the third quarter Saggau raught a punt by Youel on Iowa's 4.1 yard line and appeared to have got into the open, when he slipped ar.d fell on the Iowa 29 yard line. Saggau's pass into the end zone was incomplete, but another toss, Saggau to Juzwik, was good for twenty yards and first down on Iowa's 10 yard line. Enich broke thru to toss Piepul for a four yard loss as the third period ended. On the first play of the final quarter Piepul made nine yards and then added a couple.

George Paskvan swung into action in a touchdown march and six points dropped into the laps of the victors before the first quarter was finished.

The customers had barely seated themselves in the still damp pews when Master Franck committed his combinat ion 1 e-and-run, courtesy of his chum Paffrath. Purdue had kicked off, Petty doing the honors, with Carter holding the ball.

Franck was almost on the verge of returning the boot as he attempted to pick up the ball at the 5 yard line. His pedal idea continued only to the 9 yard mark, where he finally managed to scoop up the leather and continue therefrom to the touchdown. He chose the left side of the field Badgers at their best. Indiana, totally outclassed, added to its woes by fumbling and the Badgers piled up three more touchdowns before half time. Thereafter they weren't vitally KNOX 131.

16. Ohio State's burly young men overpowered the Illini this chilly afternoon in Memorial stadium, 14 to 6. In the first period after possession on Illinois' first down quick kick and again in the third period the Buckeyes shoved thru the lighter Illinois line consistently. At the end of each march Don Scott, 215 pound Buckeye quarter back, smashed over the Illinois left tackle for a touchdown. A Dads' day crowd of 15,571 watched Ohio State convincingly demonstrate its superiority on the ground only four passes were attempted and all failed and finally these loyal fans were rewarded with the promised Illini air attack that swept to the enemy's end zone in the last quarter.

In this surging assault Illinois momentarily startled their complacent foemen, but when the point after touchdown was missed, leaving Ohio State better than a touchdown ahead, the Buckeyes regained poise. Three times, however, in the concluding ten minutes Illini incipient thrusts were ended in pass interception else this story might have had a different ending. Unable to Halt Sweeps. When Ohio State's machine started to roll there was nothing Illinois could do about it. The Illini perforce had to play Ohio State's game, and when they were unable to match power with power, or even to check the Buckeyes' sweeping reverses and end runs by defensive speed, they were helpless.

Scott scored twice, but it might have been Jim Langhurst, battering Buckeye full back, or Tom Kinkade, whose wide reverses continually threatened the flanks of the Illini line. Behind Ohio State's superior forwards, all the Ohio State ball carriers moved irresistibly. The brisk southwestern wind that whipped diagonally down the gridiron was an important factor since advantage clearly rested with the kicker, whose team defended the south goal. Moreover, Illinois air attack could not function against the wind. Illinois threw only two passes against the wind but riddled the Buckeye defense in the closing period when Chicago Tribune Press Service.1 Minneapolis, Nov.

16. If there was any doubt that Minnesota's Golden Gophers are not just a plain, old fashioned, good football team it was dissipated today as the kids from up in these snowy parts whacked Purdue's luckless Boilermakers, 33 to 6, before a contented Dad's day throng of 30,140. The Gophers clinched the Western Conference championship for the fifth time since 1932 with as convincing a demonstration of sound football as the conference can hope to see this year, with fingers crossed for the Gophers' traditional meeting with Wisconsin in Madison next It was Minnesota's fifth conference triumph. Mernik Branches Out. And if you hear of anybody saying they are lucky to have a fellow named Joe Mernik around, just because of the extra points with which Joseph licked Northwestern and Michigan, it need only be mentioned that Joe made seven points this afternoon, and all of them from the field.

Not only did Joe contribute his customary point after touchdown, but he a.lso chipped in with two field goals, one of them from a quartering angle at 25 yards, and one from the center at 27 yards, just for fun. The Gophers' versatility is revealed in the fact that they scored within the first fourteen seconds and finally in the last twenty-eight seconds. George Franck, of whom you may have heard, was merely standing around at the opening kickoff when Quarter Back Bob Paffrath failed to field the ball. George footed the ball around at the 5 yard mark, and after scuffing it along for another five, kept going for a touchdown. Purdue Is Shocked.

The Boilermakers never did seem to recover from this sudden jolt. Thruout the afternoon they looked none too sharp defensively until they were facing, a combination of extras in the final quarter, when John Petty and Johnny Galvin led the drive that brought them their six points. The end of the game saw Jim Lushine, a 240 pound sophomore tackle, pilfering a Purdue pass out of the air and going on for the final touchdown. Galvin, and Capt. Da'e Rankin stood out for the losers and if anyone is interested, you might look not only for Mernik next season, but interested in more points.

Badgers Hold Hursh in Check. The Badgers removed the potential sting from the Hoosiers' assault by giving Hal Hursh, the pitching half back, little leeway. He tried to warm for the journey, there being no Purdue parties in that sector to inter up his pitching arm for three quar I HE Regular Army of the United States is a very different organization than it was only a few years ago.
