The fightin' Illini will have be all of that, or the loop crown will go to the Buckeyes and the Rose Bowl trip to Wisconsin's Badgers. Ohio State is ineligible for a return Rose Bowl appearance.

Illinois, 10th and climbing Loss Drops NY Into Tie For Second CHICAGO (AP) Touchdowns by a pair of Southern rookies stirred up a last half rally Sunday that projected the Chicago Bears over the New York Yanks 28-20 and into second place of the National football league's tight division race. The victory, before 50,103 wildly cheering fans in Wrig-- ley Field, was the Bears' sixth In eight starts. The torrid Yanks with a five game victory string snapped now haye a 6-2 standing, toppling them from the lead into a tie with the Bears of the National conference The Los Angeles Rams, by beat ing Green Bay, climbed into the bracket lead with 7-2. Come From Behind Avenging their 38-27 loss to the Yanks in New York two weeks ago, the Bears had to fight from a 14-7 halftime deficit to gam their choicest triumph of the campaign. Two touchdowns in the third period and a clincher in the fourth brought the upsurge.

Although Johnny Lujack of the Bears and New York's George Ratterman Lu jack's former un derstudy at Notre Dame ere locked in a brilliant aerial show, it remained for two Chicago rookies, end John O'Quinn of Wake Forest and halfback Chuck Hun-singer of Florida, to paint the final touches to a great football game. O'Quinn stole Ratterman's "gamble" pass thrown from his own end zone at the outset of the third period and streaked five yards for a touchdown. In the first 4 minutes of the YANK BACK SCAMPERS FOR GAIN New York Yanks fleet-footed back Buddy Young (lower left) scampers down field after taking pass from George Ratterman in first quarter Sunday at Wrigley Field.

Toronto, Boston, 0. Chicago, New York, 1. MILWAUKEE (AP) The Los Angeles Rams rode easily in i to the National Division leader ship of the National Football League Sunday, crushing the Green Bay Packers, 45-14. as the Chicago Bears defeated the New York Yanks at Chicago. The Rams cashed four Green Bay errors for touchdowns, an other for a field goal and added a pair of scores on their own in gaining their seventh victory in nine league starts.

The Bears victory left them tied in second place with the Yanks on 6-2 slates. Green Bay's touchdowns came in the final minutes on passes rrom loom Rote to Larry Coutre and Al Baldwin as most of the 20,456 fans were filing out of State Fair Park in near freezing cold. The Packers slapped the shack les on Norm Van Brocklin, the league's top passer, limiting him to one completion in 11 pitches, that for a touchdown, but Bob Wa- terfield took up the slack with a pair of scoring passes and Glenn Davis tossed another in the shel lacking. Roberts, Conerly Lead Giant Win NEW YORK (AP) Gene (Choo Choo) Roberts and passing Chuck Conerly led the New York Giants to a 51-21 victory over the Chicago Cardinals Sunday in a National Football League game. The Giants scrapped the formation and returned to their old single wing for the occasion.

It was the largest point total amassed by the Giants since they whipped Philadelphia's Eagles. 56-0, in 1933 and it came at the ex pense of the team that checked them with a mere field goal in the Cards 17-3 triumph in Chicago two weeks ago. Roberts, starting in place of the injured Forrest Griffith at the left half post, scored two of the Giants' seven touchdowns as he established a new Giant record bv gaining 218 yards in 26 tries. The old mark of 188 yards was set by Bill Paschal against the Washington Redskins in 1943. The victory, witnessed by a crowd of 22,380 paid, kept the Giants in the thick of the race for the American conference championship.

They are tied with the Eagles for second place, a half game behind the Cleveland Browns. Browns Nab Win From 49'ers CLEVELAND (AP) The Cleveland Browns converted two fumbles and an intercepted pass into touchdowns Sunday to defeat the San Francisco 49'ers. 34 to 14, before 28,786 fans in a Na tional Football League game. The victory kept the Browns at the top of the American Division of the pro loop. The 49'ers outgained the Browns, 291 yards to 229.

but inept ball handling cost the West Coast team the victory. The payoff was that Joe Perry, the 49'ers' fullback, fumbled five times and the Browns picked up four of his miscues along with two others. The big. margin came in the closing minutes when the Browns moved for two quick touchdowns after taking a 20 to 14 lead midway in the quarter on the second of Lou Groza's placekicks. LoraiWins 8th i VOnTeST in IU QUINCY (AP) Loras handily won its eighth football verdict in 10 starts with a 22-7 decision over Quincy here Sunday.

The Iowa eleven was paced oy Frank Huber who tallied 14 points on a pajr of touchdowns and two extra points. Loras opened the scoring in the second period when Quincy quarterback Rudy Briller was tackled for a safety by Carl Burbach. Also in the second period, Dick Zaleski romped across from the 10 and Huber added the point for a 9-0 Loras lead In the fourth quarter, Huber got both his touchdowns on short smashes and converted once Trailing 22-0, Quincy counted on Biller's Quarterback sneak and his pass to Jack Kilroe for the point Ed Alsene Fairbury High School foes have and will have had enough of the Goslin brothers pretty soon. After facing Bill and Bud last year in Midstate conference Play, the enemies naa to put up with them again this season as Fairbury went undefeated in nine games. Bill graduates this year, but the chunky Bud, who is the harder runner of the two.

will be back for another year. As if that isn't enough, there's another brother in a Fairburv grade school. The two Ooslins remind one of West Point's famed Mr. Inside and Mr. Outside Felix Blanchard and Glenn Davis.

Against Chenoa last Friday night. Bud the Mr. Inside, carried the ball on off tackle plays 21 times. He didn't try the ends once, but he carried eight times up the middle. Bill the Mr.

Outside, ran the ends seven times, went off tackle four times, and crashed the middle of the line four times. Co-captain Jack Peradotto eclipsed the St. Teresa rushing record of 729 yards against Trinity last Thursday night. He needed 35 yards going into the game, and picked up vardage on trios of 3, 9, 16, 15. 12, 14 and 1.

The new record now stands at 764 yards. Jack Casselman, who's now at Millikin University, set the 729 yard mark just last year. Cas- lur wie season ana may nave cost him the state scoring title. When the Chicago Daily News' all-state men were in Danville to watch O. J.

Lou Boudreau can return to Illinois as an aide to Harry Combes and Wallie Roettger anytime he wants to quit baseball, Doug Mills informs, but you know there is considerable difference 1 the salary of an assistant coach and a major league manager drawing $70,000 per annum, so it hardly seems likely that a young man of 34 is going to quit the game Lou Boudreau Kentucky all but clinched the Southeastern conference crown Saturday by polishing off Missis sippi State, 48-21.

That one gives the Wildcats a 5-1 record even it they fall flat at Tennessee.

They will discover that ttuey have underestimated the extent of Rickey's administration. No two men can duplicate his production of work, to say nothing of his statements to the press and public. This yarn is going the rounds of the touchdown circuit.

Colgate Center Bob Mc-Call protested when the referee called him for holding. "I didn't hold on that play." "The official said: "No, but you did on the play before," and stepped off the 15 yards. It's been a rough year for the boys with the handkerchiefs and they are crying about the low grade of officiating in almost every circuit. Jacksonville had a caxial cable and they are speculating now on whether the Gator Bowl can be channeled over the nation. It would be the only bowl game available for TV Networks and it would shove the show into the fabulous money class.

The best Illinois can do, playing one game less than Ohio State and Wisconsin, is finish with 5-1 requiring besides an upset of the wondrous Buckeyes a closing vic tory over Northwestern. For title purposes, the Illini could finish on top only if they and Michigan both spilled Ohio State. Bowl Picture Favors Badgers The Rose Bowl picture favors Wisconsin (4-2) which marks time next Saturday in an intersectional road clash with Pennsylvania before closing league play against winless Minnesota.

Expected to brush aside Minnesota, the Badgers should wind up with 5-2. Thus the pressure is on Illinois for whom just one slip means at best a 4-2 finish and no Rose Bowl summons. Wisconsin which gave Ohio State a rousing scrap before succumb ing 19-14 before 81,535 fans at Columbus Saturday holds a 7-6 decision over Illinois. Conceded that mud splattered win over the Illini had a large dose of luck, it's still credited to the Badgers in the record book and will mean a lot when it comes to- the Rose Bowl balloting. Illinois scored 21 quick points 'ainst Tnwa Saturrlav and thpn against Iowa Saturday and then frittered around for a 21-7 verdict.

The Illini have held ace Johnny Karras out of two Big 10 games, but limping or not, he'll probably carry most of Illinois hopes against Ohio State Saturday.

The Titans were so bad in their homecoming game that the boys naturally are eager to redeem themselves in the eyes of their supporters, but the fact remains that the 1950 squad is pitifully lacking in depth, and that the IWU coaches will have to depend on approximately 15 men in their final start of the season Nov.

Lujack hit on 10 out of 19 for 120. Headed by Hunsinger's 119 ground yards in 14 carries, the Bears out-rushed the Yanks 234 to 93. Buddy Young, while he was operating, proved the New Yorker's most sensational runner. He ham mered a net of 25 yards in seven attempts. Philadelphia Rips Washington, 33-0 WASHINGTON (AP) Tom my Thompson's sparkling passing and fine running by Steve Van Buren and Frank Ziegler led the Philadelphia Eagles to an easy, methodical 33-0 victory over the Washington Redskins Sunday.

It was the Eagles sixth victory against only two losses and left them very much in the running for the American Conference divi sion title of the National Football League. For the outclassed Red skins it was their seventh straight defeat. Oddly, the turning point was furnished by Frank Reagan, who normally is the Eagles' punter It was in the third period, and though the Eagles were ahead at the time. 10-0, the Redskins naa been making menacing gestures On fourth down and nine yards to go for a first down, Reagan went back as if to kick, but he ran instead. 40 yards to the Redskin 30.

Eddie Rapier, the Trinity full back, ended the season with an 18 yard rushing average for Thursflay's game, and he zipped 72 yards for a touchdown. Rapier had a 73 yard trip against Clin ton earlier in the year, although the play didn't go for a touch down as he stepped out of bounds before he reached the goal.

Recover 1 1 Fumbles Bloomington's Raiders established some kind of a record when they snared in all 11 fum bles in their valedictory at Strea-tor. The Bulldogs fumbled seven times, and BHS four times, and each time one of Howard Saar's boys came up with the pigskin. The Raiders turned in a cour ageous exhibition on the whole but simply didn't have the strength to take advantage of their opportunities. Twice the Raiders moved to the two yard stripe of the Bulldogs, but weren't strong enough to push it over.

Streator made three of their touchdowns on long runs and one pass connected with iust four seconds remaining of the first half, Those are the kind of breaks that courage can't overcome. Gerry Francis, BHS sophomore end, raced 50 yards on one occasion only to be nailed from behind on the 10 yard stripe and the Raiders couldn't negotiate the rest of the distance. Capt.

He has a sumptuous feast prepared for the boys tonight. The handkerchiefs were waving Saturday at De Kalb, and Referee Dwight Stuessey, onetime Illini, from his position back of the offensive team, nullified six points that could have wrecked the Normal Redbirds in the clos ing minute of that great brawl at De Kalb. The ruling was that Frank Chiodo Andy Moeus Ira spotlight this week End Fran Cahill of Utica had stepped on the end line as he snared a long pitch from Bob Heimerdinger. the great De Kalb hurler.

Another fine "break" that came Normal's way took place early in the second half when the alert John Macek, 201 pound Nokomis tackle pounced upon a handoff bv Heimerdinger intended for another Huskies' hands. Macek raced all the way to the De Kalb goal line but, of course, the ball was returned by the officials to the spot of recovery, which is exactly according to Hoyle in the collegiate code. We did see a gentleman named "Jarring Mike" Snyder fumble on the Minonk goal-line Friday and a lad from Minonk named Oren Landeroth ran 92 yards to score a touchdown, but that would be the high school code and this is permissable under the prep code. There were too many great plays at De Kalb for this correspondent to single out one but certainly the referee's decision on that last minute pass. Macek's recovery of the De Kalb handoff at a critical juncture of the game, and Dean Burridge's successful conversion in the fourth period, all deserve top billing.

The Redbirds ran wild in the middle of the field but found the going tougher in the last 10 yards (as do most clubs, it might be added), or they might have scored two or three more touchdowns.
