(U.R) Tom Harmon and the unbeaten University of Michigan football team, toying with a completely outclassed Vale eleven, rolled to Beneath the Ivy, Barbed Wire By HENRY J. McCORMICK (State Journal Sports Editor) Nile Kin nick, a magnificent football player by any method of judging, stole the show Saturday afternoon at Camp, Randall as a Dads' day crowd of 21,000 saw him lead Iowa to a 19-13 victory over a hapless Wisconsin eleven.

(U.R) Ohio State knocked the ivy off Cornell with two quick touchdowns Saturday and then found barbed wire underneath. Cornell rallied to win, 23 to 14. Overwhelmed in the first 20 minutes of the football game, and trailing 0 to 14, the Big Red team from far above Cayuga's waters came roaring back to score three sensational touchdowns and a field goal and topple Ohio State from the ranks of the undefeated. victory of the season when Left End William "Bud" Kerr, grabbed a fumble out of the air and ran Three men set out for the ball Bohrman, and two Buckeye defenders, Graf and Raab.

Lou Zontinf, the doe DiMaggio patrolling center-field for the New York Yankees. It wasn't that Iowa had more courage than Wisconsin, that Iowa had more collective ability, or that Iowa was smarter. The difference was that Iowa had Kinnick.

ANY TIME YOU TAKE KINNICK AWAY FROM THAT IOWA TEAM IT WILL BE A MEDIOCRE OUTFIT. Wisconsin was superior on the ground, Iowa in the air. Yet it is a peculiar fact the Badgers had to take to' the air to score both their touchdowns. Coach Harry Stuhldreher expressed the trouble with this Wis-, consin team better than anyone else after the game when he said: "There's an anchor dragging some place." Wisconsin scored first, starting the drive from its own 36 yard line after couple punt exchanges. right halfback, put across what Harmon had the help of Bob Westfall, blasting Michigan fullback, Forest Eveshevski, who with Westfall paved Harmon's path with wellplaced blocks, and Paul Kromer, who scored Michigan's second touchdown.

Michigan was checked at Yale's 3-yard line early in the game, but before the period ended, came back to score. In a march from the Michigan 30, Westfall drove for nine yards and Harmon slashed off tackle 45 more. was to be the winning point. Up to that time six and a half minutes of the third period the SAN FRANCISCO (U.R) Santa Clara's Broncos struck down Tur-due of the Big Ten Saturday in an intersectional football game, 13-6. After coming from behind to tie, 6-6.

at half time, Santa Clara blocked a punt in the final period and shoved over the winning touchdown from the 12-yard line. Santa Clara's wide end runs and the slashing power of Fullback Jack Roche kept the midwestern-ers on the defensive throughout. Cornell, in two plays, had covered 141 yards of territory and game was close. Bill Scholz snatched a vrctory right out of Madison East's hands Saturday night at Breese Stevens field, 13-12, when, he returned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown just after East had scored and had gone ahead, 12-6. Davey Byrd kicked all important point.

The defeat crushed Madison East's hopes of catching Racine Park in the Big Eight conference football race. East now has three wins and two defeats. Park has two games left, but can lose one of them and still win the championship. Rill Talti circled l-rt end for eight yards for East's score in the first quarter. East held the crept up to withm one point of the enemy.

Br STEVE SNIDER EVANSTON, 111. (U.R)North-western, baffled 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 Illini 13 to 0 Saturday 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 trick defense designed by Bob 2uppke. Bat fn the third period the Wildcats shook loose Paul Soper for a twisting touchdown run of 74 yards and added another six points in the fourth when Illinois, passing desperately, in its own territory, lost possession on a pass interception on its own 29-yard line. Until Soper broke out cf nowhere midway in the third period jt was 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 through and burst into the open. He cut for the sidelines and out-raced Fullback George Rettinger to cross the goal line standing up. The entire fourth period was played on Illinois ground, due largely to the accurate punting of Bill De Correvont. He drove his pur.ts out of bounds on the three, one and four yard lines.

Da Cor- Neither team had made a first down in the first two periods. Notre Dame had moved the sticks for the first time just minutes before. Three plays worked the ball to Yale's 11 and Harmon went over.

The customers came expecting a rout of the despised Ivy League champion of the east, and during the early stages of the game, they saw just that. Midway in the first period the big and aggressive Ohio State team rolled 87 yards along the ground to a touchdown, kicked the point, and went out in front, 7 to 0.

The second period was scarcely under way when the Scarlet and Gray steamroller started another push. This one moved 72 yards without a halt and Ohio State was winging on top, 14 to 0. for the score.

But that was last year. ped four straight. In his younger days, Nile Kinnick was a battery mate of Bob Feller, having been a catcher when the two lived in the same small Iowa town.

And mull this one over. IoWa has scored 16 touchdowns this year. Nile Kinnick has Scored four of them and has passed to nine others. He missed two out of ihree attempts for the point after touchdown here Saturday and that's as many as he'd missed in his previous 1 1 attempts. those of the other nine Western Conference universities.

Here's one for the books. Wisconsin has yet to score a touchdown except on a pass. In the Marquette game it was a pass from Billy Schmitz to Bobby Cone and another from Tony Gradisnik to Fred Gage that accounted for the two scores. Against Texas an aerial from Johnny Tennant to Don Miller tallied the only score; Schmitz's toss to Claude York scored the Badgers' marker against Northwestern, and in Saturday's Iowa game the two touchdowns came on passes from Gradisnik to Gage and from Schmitz to Al Lorenz. The public address system at Camp Randall might be improved by eliminating advertising such things as special trains and comiag stage plays when the crowd is waiting to learn the name of a player who is injured or of a substitute who has just entered the game.

And whoever planned the betwecn-halocs celebration in honor of the Wisconsin players' dads might have done a better job of apportioning ihe time. The learns were lined up for the kickoff and ihe game had to be delayed while the dads were still frantically scrambling across the field. What kind of a way is that to heat the guys who pay all the bills? (And besides, ihe ceremonies took up so much time, ihe band never had a chance to play "Varsity." You may be interested to leam that the Minnesota banner so conspicuously missing the last time the Wisconsin band performed its entertaining antics at Camp Randall was very much in evidence Saturday, along with When Wisconsin's Billy Schmiti p-iilled a quick kick on Iowa in the second; half, The State Journal's "Roundy" Cough- lin who has urged quick kicks this year as President Roosevelt has urged lifting the arms embargo rose to his feet, smiled -beatifically, and declared: ,1 "That's wonder-FUL." How's thi, for fast scoring? A minute and 40 seconds afier the second half opened Iowa had a touchdown. Three minutes and 43 seconds later the Badgers had one. But that still can't match what happened last year at Iowa City when Wisconsin scored three touchdowns Wisconsin's football squad will get a complete layoff Monday.

The Badgers have an open date this coming Saturday, and they can look forward to a weekend with perfect assurance of not losing. They have now drop.
