I Foresters Favored In Payoff Contest By Forrest R. Kyle Herald Sports Editor Millikin and Lake Forest clash here this afternoon for the College Conference of Illinois football championship. Came time is 1:30 o'clock. Lake Forest ranks as the favorite in the battle between the two teams, neither of which has won a grid title since the conference opened for business in the fall of 1946. The Foresters, as a matter of fact, will be shooting for their first major sports title in the conference.

Their only championships have come in tennis and golf. Both teams have a 3-0 loop record to date with today's game the final conference battle for both teams. Lake Forest has beaten Elmhurst, North Central and Wheaton enroute to today's pavoff contest. Millikin has turned back Elmhurst, Illinois College and Wesleyan in order. The Foresters had one.

close squeak, needing two touchdowns in the last quarter to spill Elmhurst. Millikin won handily against its conference foes but none, admittedly, was of the caliber of Wheaton. This 20th game between the two schools likely could develop into a struggle between Millikin's offense and Lake Torest's defense. This is not to say that the Blue lacks defensive strength nor that the Foresters are without offensive power. Conference statistics, however, show Millikin with a better "offensive average and Lake Forest with a better defensive record.

Caliber of opposition, of course, can throw a distorted light on such figures. It will be a battle between Lake Forest's straight and Millikin's split T. If prior games can be used as an indication, the Blue will try to strp Lake Forest with a 5-3-2-1 and the Foresters will employ a 7-1-2-1. Coaches Bob Appleby of Millikin and Wally Lcmm of Lake Forest can be counted upon not only to employ varying defensive tactics but undoubtedly will have offensive tricks hatched fresh during this week's practice sessions. Both the Blue and the Foresters have been predominantly ground-attack teams.

Lake Forest has Phil Ricks, one of the swiftest backs in the conference, at right half, and Leo Ferrari, generally recognized as the loop's top fullback. Left half Joe Dcmpsey is the conference's leading punter. Millikin's offensive chores are shared almost equally by halfbacks Billy Savage and Gordon Short, fullback Roy Schaub and, when he's in the game, quarterback Frank Chizevsky. Chizevsky divides quarterback du ties with Jim Fitzgerald, who is apt to run less often but is the team's punter and more experienced signal- caller. One thing which has helped the Slues offense this year is that all of the backs can and do pass.

The Big Blue went through spirited and noisy signal drill yesterday afternoon in direct contrast to the morgue-like atmosphere which pre vailed Ihursday. A school pep meeting apparently lit a spark and yesterday Appleby was feeling bet ter about his charges being ready mentally for the Foresters. Physically, Millikin will have all its players in uniform but several probably will see only limited action, if any, because of injuries still on the mend. Lake forests last big year in football was 1933 when the Forest ers swept their seven-game schedule. A 3-0 defeat of Millikin was in the string.

Millikin's last championship came in 1942 when Fuzzy Sutherd's Blue team reeled off seven straight wins, including a 13-7 conquest of Lake Forest. Probable Lineups: Lake.
