Enhancing the knowledge he gained from immediate contact with the Panthers' style of play Devore has been Sheiiocking the Panthers for quite awhile. After having played against Pitt in 1931, 1932 and 1933, Devore joined Xfp with Elmer Layden as an assistant at Notre Dame in 1934 and took to the Panther trail and he has been doing business at this stand ever since. He watched Pitt this year against Duquesne and Notre Dame and he went back to New York with all the harrowing details of the Sutherland style of attack and defense. 4 As a part of his exhaustive report on the Pitts, Devore 3 compiled a complete file of the Panther personnel. Judging -from the reports coming this way from the East, Devore 6 knows on what side, if any, the various Panthers part their hair, and what is their favorite breakfast food.

The man's investigation has been quite complete. Each Pitt player's picture has been clipped from the papers and posted in the dressing room of the Rams, where the Fordham boys gather I to make an intensive photographic study to learn of the i wiles and snares set by the Panthers. Now the result of all this may be that the well scouted Panthers will pin back the ears of the Rams for there is something screwy about football which makes scouts' reports, at times, appear like nothing less complex than a railroad timetable. The best piece of scouting we know about around here is done by the able Bill Kern, Jock Sutherland's first assistant, who had Notre Dame down so well, we noticed in the last battle, that when a Notre Dame end moved out as a decoy, pretending he was going down field for a pass, a Pitt end pretended he was pretty much worried about his Notre Dame rival, until the second when the ball was snapped, at which time the Pitt end figuratively thumbed his nose at the decoy and ran lickety split into the Notre Dame backfield.

(United Press) Marquette's Golden Avalanche rolled on toward national gridiron recognition and possible consideration for a Rose Bowl bid by smothering St Mary's Galloping Gaels from Moraga Valley under the flood Night Riders' Fumbles Lead to Titans' Scores; Penalties and Arguments With Officials Mar Contest. By Jack Sell Post-Gazette Staff Writer. DETROIT, Oct. 30. Striking suddenly through the air in the last period of play, a determined Detroit University grid eleven came from behind to register two touchdowns in quick succession under the floodlights of their home stadium here tonight and break the three-year string of successes which the invading Duquesne Dukes held when Part of the Report We are privileged to repeat some of the dope Scout Devore has passed onto the Rams about our local boys now in New York.

Goldberg: He backs up too soon at the sight of a pass (on the defensive.) About Patrick: It is better to toss passes in his zone rather than to Goldberg's. About La Rue: A good, experienced halfback, who sometimes falls victim to a quick kick. (Scout Devore also could have added that Bobby, the Iron Man, likes to play "in" when receiving punts and gives Pitt rooters the jitters because he likes to catch punts with his back facing the kicker.

The Bearcats of St. Vincent College ran rough shod over the Davis-Elkins' eleven here tonight to score four touchdowns and chalk up an impressive 27-0 victory, to bring to a close the night games of the season. St. Vincent Gets Score. St.

Vincent scored in the second quarter after threatening to tally twice in the first quarter. After receiving a Davis-Elkins punt on his 40, Bruner returned the ball to mid-field. Seni failed to gain at the line, then Segatti's pass to Evans for a gain of 40 put the ball on the D. E. 10.

A throng estimated at 60,000 saw Marquette smash on to its fifth straight triumph and remain one of the nation's few major undefeated and untied teams. It was one of the worst intersec-tional defeats ever suffered by the Gaels since Slip Madigan hoisted the little California school into a big-time football institution. When the St. Mary's team, carrying 12 injured men on its squad, answered the opening kickoff it had a travel log of. 4,200 miles behind it.

Marquette Strikes Early. Marquette struck quickly and seven minutes after the game started had a 13-0 lead. The Gaels wore silk uniforms of red, green and white, decorated with a harp on each jersey. From that point on rmnrr i ohi 3ft nitrnnula .14 Did Well While Losing.

Substitute Guard John Shada annexed both goals after touchdown via the placement route.

Score On Blocked Punt Duquesne had scored on the second play after the intermission when Right End Ernie Hefferle crashed through to block an attempted punt by Charley Payne in the local end zone and big Bill Critchfield seized it for the six-pointer. Boyd Brumbaugh placekicked the seventh point. Bounding back from the surprise party at the hands of West Virginia Wesleyan last Friday, the Red and Blue entered the game full of fight, but their spirit was quickly quenched as the officials turned the game into a continuous stream of penalties. On top of this bad state of affairs, Don Hamilton was substituted at the eleventh hour for Dr. E.

P. Maxwell in the announced list of arbiters which was also carried in the official program, and naturally the losers made especial note of this shift as infraction after infraction was called against them. Although the fans got tired of the monotonous sounding of the whistle and the inevitable stepping off of yardage, the two rivals were set back for almost every possible foul. Unnecessary roughness, offside, delaying the game, holding, talking of a sub before reporting, interference with pass receivers, he smacks an end that, end knows he has been touched. Also, he is the headiest of the Pitt quarters and is destined to draw some of the heaviest assignments from now on.) Devore wound up his report with the statement that Goldberg is the best back Fordham will see all year.

He adds this is the strongest team Pitt ever turned out, but this might come under the head of pepping up Fordham for the battle today. Diz Not Likely to Come Here It is safe to say that although Dizzy Dean is on the market the Pirates will not be active bidders for the great one. The St. Louis people who own Dizzy are very hard to deal Avith, under ordinary circumstances, and with Dizzy as the bait the St. Louis people would expect a very big haul in the way of cash and players.

Chances are that after all the talk has died down, Dizzy wiil he found in a St. Louis uniform next season. Perhaps, tiis talk about putting him on the block is part of Branch Rickey's scheme to publicize the great Cardinal star. The latest information is that the Cardinals will look attentively at a cash offer of $150,000, plus a batch of players, in exchange for Dizzy. That they are not asking for the real estate of the club desiring to get Dizzy is surprising.

New York could support a Dean deal, and perhaps, Chicago, but it is doubtful whether it would pay an owner in any other city to mortrase the old homestead in an effort to get Dizzy. betting is even that Dizzy will be doing business at the same old" sfjftd. next jammer.

After a scoreless third quarter. St. Vinvent took the ball an-i drove to mid field. On the first play of monstrate. At the last moment, with 15 seconds left to play, two Duke players, George Platukis and Bill Critchfield were banished when they got into arguments with the men in white.

The former made things worse by rushirrg at Linesman Jack Dunn and pushing him violently away but no real blows were struck. Detroit graciously declined the penalty for this act. Penalized 140 Yards. The statistics showed Duquesne was pushed exactly 140 yards toward the other goal line while Detroit was getting a total of 90 yards the same way. Duquesne only netted 99 from rushing and 40 from forward passes for a 139 total so that they went to the rear exactly one yard when the balance was made.

The penalty parade was quick in getting started. After Terrone had raced back to the opening kickoff e. St. Mary's fought back gamely but could not wipe out the early damage. Each team made a touchdown after that, 'but those two Marquette touchldowns which came with dramatjic suddenness in the early minut of play were all that the Hi ltoppers needed.

Gaels Hai Edge in Figure. St. Mary's had an edge in the statistics, ga ining 174 yards on running play to Marquette's 159. The Gaels impleted five out of 18 passes foi 60 yards, while the Golden Aval? nche completed three out of six ps sses for 41 yards. St.

Factor's placement kick was again good.

As to the political campaign Ei-Rigby said all he knew about that was that he has been hearing ever since he was a child that in politics they make a football out of practically everything. Brute Kramer, who has a part of the Jules Beck promo-5 tions, writes in that interest in the Overlin-Yarosz fight, -scheduled for next Wednesday, is running, as the phrase it, high.

The unterrified Kramer and Beck are tossing in a show on the night right after election day when fans' minds will still be on the political situation. We hope the promotion is a success for Beck has been in there pitching for several seasons and has been getting his ears pinned back pretty well by the enemy batsmen. But we are not optimistic about his coming promotion. Not because it is not a rattling good attraction, but because we think Jules has allowed the boys to take too big of a bite out of him in the way of guarantees and percentages. El Rigby took one on the whiskers in the recent Rankins-Krieger unpleasantness one of the greatest fights in modern Pittsburgh history and he shied away from the Yarosz-Overliu affair on aceount of the terms asked.

But perhaps Beck is in for a little luck and maybe he will be able to beat the touch put on him by the two battlers' managers. When Beck started dickering with Ray Foutts, Yarosz's manager, he took on quite a contract for the East Liverpool tavern keeper, is seldom caught wrth his foot off base when he discusses terms. 4 11 30 48 8 Number off tackle plays.
