NOVEMBER 23. 1936 Tigers Win Second DEFEAT BULLDOGS 21-0 IN MASTERFUL DISPLAY OF OFFENSIVE ABILITY WEDSETH, WENDT Massillon Line Outstanding as Bulldogs Fail To Get Ball into Tiger Territory Until Last Play of Game; 21,000 Witness Contest By LUTHER EMERY Hail Washington high Tigers! Hail champions of Ohio! You have won the mythical title two consecutive years for Massillon. You have beaten a hitherto undefeated Bulldog.

You held to three first downs a Bulldog that had scored 379 points aga'nst nine other Ohio, Pennsylvania and Illinois teams. You gained 349 yards from scrimmage to Canton's 68. You cost John Reed his first loss in 45 games. Hail Washington high Tigers! Hail champions of Ohio! Bulldogs Outplayed at Every Turn In an amazing exhibition that surprised the most optimistic of Massillon fans, the Tiger grid machine outplayed the Bulldog at every turn Saturday afternoon before 21.000 fans on Massillon field to retain the state title and increase the string of consecutive victories to 20. Canton didn't have a chance.

Prom the start a sturdy Massillon line, outcharging and outsmarting the heavier Canton forward stopped everything the Bulldogs tossed at it on offense and opened big gaps in the red and black trench for Tiger backs to rush through. The Tigers were a constant threat' every time they got the ball. They had it 13 times and on 11 of those occasions they marched it deep into Canton territory. Thrice they struck for touchdowns, and once they lost it on the one-yard line and once on the five-yard line. Glass Scores on 38-yard Run Denied a score the first period by a determined Canton line that refused to give ground when backed up to itsj Byi-ii-mown goal, Tiger fans had their first!

Amlersor I U'yatt i Snavi-ly No Post Season Game, Says Brown The 21-0 defeat of Canton "Saturday afternoon officially closed the 1936 football season for Washington high school, Coach Paul Brown announced this morning. Members of the athletic board have given up the idea of a postseason game. Schurz high school of Chicago, was interested, but wanted the game played in Chicago, while Massillon would prefer a game here. Under state high school rules the game would have to be played this month. Coach Brown said his team could not possibly be whipped into the best of condition for a game Saturday.

The Canton game took a lot out of the boys, and while none was seriously injured, all took a body beating. "We are going to take a week off, and then get ready for ba.sket- baU season," Brown said this morning. "I hope to see all boosters in attendance at our meeting tonight. We ought to have lot of fun and a lot to talk about." os. Canton Snvilfr T.T T.C! Fire TIG -Motley RT Vinlo TIK Rotar 0 Knmp Italics FB Snyder Class h-'oori' by 0 7 0 tjl re; re: Simon.

These players were the only repeaters.

Oze Simmons, Iowa's fast negro halfback, did not reach his 1935 form and gained honorable mention. The coaches picked four Northwestern Wildcats. They placed Fred Vamo, whose blocking and defensive play featured the Wildcat drive to the Bif Ten title, at quarterback and Don Heap, versatile Northwestern star who kicked, passed and directed his team, at halfback. They gave Andy Uratn, speedy Minnesota back other hall- back post and Cecil Isbell, Purdue's slashing 'runner, accurate passer and fine kicker, the fullback El Sayre, Illinois captain won the center position. The coaches named Steve Reid, Northwestern, and Inwood Smith of Ohio State at guards and paired Charlie Hamrick of Ohio State with Wid- seth at tackle.

They placed John Kovatch, rugged Northwestern ace, at an end position opposite The 1936 mythical team's backfield averages about 185 pounds and the line about 198.

Opponents in Rose Bowl Game Jan. 1 Probably Will Be Rather Definitely Established After This Week's Football Contests One Of The Touch downs That Helped Turn Back Bulldogs The above picture, snapped during Saturday's scholastic football battle at Massillon field, shows Bob Glass, sturdy Washington high fullback, crashing through the Canton McKinley line from the three yard line for the second touchdown of the game, scored in the fourth quarter. The Tigers won 21 to 0 to chalk up their 20th consecutive victory in two years and capture their second straight Ohio scholastic championship.

23. dynamite-packed vs. Western Reserve and Miami vs. the six-contest Thanksgiving day schedule with which the last nine Ohio college football teams will close out a thrill-studded season. Twenty-six of the Buckeye colleges have hung up their cleats, but two big questions remain to be answered in the turkey day frays.

the extra point. Twice more Hie second period the Massillon gridtlers threatened. They hammered to the five-yard line where a 15- yard penalty for holding cost a touchdown. Officials said Mike Byelene had used his hands illegally. They lost another opportunity Jack Barthel fumbled when tackled hard on his 10-yard line by Wyatt, and Snavely recovered for Massillon.

Canton, desperate in the face of defeat, tried to pass, but the Tigers were likewise alert here, and al: though the Bulldogs succeeded in completing a. couple.

Mike Byelene came from nowhere to spenr one of cats in the role of kingmaker. Should the Cincinnati team defeat the Redskins, the title will remain in the hands of the Ohio university Bobcats, where it rested a year ago.

Only once did he get loose, that on a sweep around his right end in the last 15 seconds of the first half, and that took the ball to his own 40. a run of 35 yards.

It saved the Bulldogs from being shutout on first downs the first half. Give the Tiger linemen plenty of credit. They were the boys in doubt when the game openeu. And they were the heroes when the game was over. Not only did they stop Canton completely from tackle to tackle, where the Bulldogs were supposed to be strong, but they frequently tossed Bulldog ball carriers for losses and rushed Carl Fiore so badly when he tried to pass that he was frequently downed before he could get the ball away.

Was there an individual star? Yes, 11 of them. No team could have completely throttled an opponent as the Tigers did the Bulldogs Saturday without every one of the 11 men playing an outstanding game. In the entire 42 years of athletic relations between the two elevens it is doubtful if either team was outplayed and humbled as thoroughly as Canton was Saturday. The most humiliating part of it as far as Canton was concerned and the i biggest achievement in Massillon's favor, was not the score of 21 points but the fact that to keep a team that had scored 379 points against some of the outstanding elevens in Ohio Biilflwiii-Wal.

The lone Redskin defeat came at the hands of Ohio Wesleyan. As the teams entered the game Miami had won five in a row, while Wesleyan had dropped five in a row, but the Bishops turned in 13 to 0 upset.

NEW YORK, Nov. 23. a deep breath for a plunge into the last big roller of the stormy football sea that already has upset most of the nation's proud gridiron argosies, the fans are groping around for the answers to two big questions this week.

Which teams will play the Rose Bowl Jan. 1 for the mythical national title; and who will win the Army-Navy game? The annual service classic, to be played at Philadelphia Saturday, is the signal for the curtain to drop, although scattered games will be played throughout Already the Big Ten and many of the major teams in the east and throughout the country have concluded operations for the year. The south probably will settle one half of the Rose Bowl question while Wash'ngton, the current leader, and Washington State will fight it out Thursday for the Pacific Coast conference title and the western nomination. Southern Teams in Lead With Marquette beaten 13-0 by Duquesne and Fordham held to a 7-7 tie by a supposedly inferior Georgia team, Alabama and Louisiana State are the ranking candidates. Santa Clara, which hung up a 13-6 decision over Loyola of Los 'Angeles yesterday, is the only unbeaten and untied team of "major league" calibre in the nation, but is not a conference member and is out of consideration Jimmy 3 and 2 in Pinehurst Final DENNY SHUTE The Meek Segner Cc Here They Are!

Nov. 23 Densmore (Denny) Shute, who failed in five attempts to win the American amateur but has collected S30.000 in eight years among the salaried players, today wore the profes- sional golfers' championship crown. His money total included the tournament's 31,000 top prizs. He whipped Jimmy Thompson, golf's longest hitter from Shawnee- on-Delaware, 3 and 2 in the finals yesterday here. It was a keen putting blade against a powerful driving wood all day, and the slender chap with the finesse on and around the carpets conquered.

Shute, a cold, unexcitable shot- maker with ice water in his veins, got the jump on Thomson on the first hole and never let up. They rounded the quarter-pole with Denny one up." and went to lunch with the 32-year-old Brae Burn pro holding his margin. Both covered the outgoing nine in the afternoon in even par but Denny canned a 12-footer on the 27th toj hold his advantage as they turned into the stretch and went two up when he rolled in a 35-footer for a birdie three on the 29th.

Loss To Magyars 0. P. S. TEAMS WIN PIN DUELS for the Rose Bowl. Favored To Win The Southeastern conference leaders, both tied but undefeated, are favored to come through this week's game handily.

Alabama concludes its conference campaign Thanksgiving Day against Vanderbilt. L. S. which warmed up its offense in a 93-0 rout of Southwestern Louisiana, plays its traditional rival Tulane, which displayed a lot of power in trimming Sewanee 53-6. While southern critics were inclined to rate L.

S. U. more highly, indications were that Washington, with an old Rose Bowl beating in mind, would lean toward Alabama should the Huskies come through in the west. A few other Rose Bowl possibilities may get in a few words in the course of the following double-barreled national program: EAST: Regardless of past records the Army-Navy game is "tops" this week and it looks more than ever like a tossup. The Cadets have one more victory and one less defeat than their rivals but Navy's slate appears to have been a trifle tougher.

Fordham, still the only unbeaten big team in the east despite two ties, winds up against New York university, 27-7 victor over City col- lege, in one of the traditional giving struggles. The oldest of the turkey day classics finds Pennsylvania a strong favorite over Cornell's sophomores. Pittsburgh, which may get some consideration for a post-season invitation, meets its city rival, Carnegie Tech.

MIDWEST: Northwestern holds the Big Ten title regardless of the Notre Dame beating while Ohio State and Minnesota wound up in a second I place tie as the Bucks beat Mich! igan 21-0 and the Gophers trimmed Wisconsin 24-0. The 20-20 tie between Purdue and Indiana and Illinois' 18-7 victory over Chicago had no bearing on the title race. Nebraska put the crusher on Kansas Stale, 40-0, to lie up the Big Six championship and now goes west to meet Oregon State, 18-0 conqueror of Oregon. Kansas and Missouri conclude the conference season Thursday with Missouri favored to take second on the strength of a 17-10 victory over Washington university. SOUTHWEST: Texas Christian, which conquered Rice 13-0 on slinging Sammy Baugh's passes, has a chance to take the undisputed Southwest conference lead Saturday by beating Methodist, last year's champion which went down 13-7 before Baylor.
