C. Indians and the Wolves of Copiah-Lincoln featuring the day's activities. Copiah-Lincoln is the oldest of rivals currently appearing on the schedule, and the Wolves will come here with a little the better season's record.

Co-Lin has emerged the victor in four of five contests so far while Coach Jim Malone's Redmen won three out of four. The Wolfpack, winner over the Tribe last year by a 12-6 count, may be coming to Monroe a little the more favored club, but chargers have been playing mighty impressive football this season and look like a much better club than last year. However, Co-Lin has back practically the same outfit that faced the Tribe last year. he out for revenge if Malone said last night. is always a tough customer, however, and have never failed to give us some of our stiffest competition each season.

They'll have another cracker jack team this trip and we'll have to be at our best to The most encouraging development at N. J. C. has been the steady improvement of the Redskin line. Back at something like normal shape after crippling blows early in the season, the Indian forwards looked their best Friday night in holding Arkansas College scoreless while their speedy hack chalked up 34 points.

Both sets of lines functioned smoothly without hindering the Indian strength. Getting their full share of the glory were Ends Miller Frey, Thomas Moncrief, Bell, and Jim Minnis; Tackles Eugene Roswell, Martin Biddy, Bob Lively, Charles Dillon, Charles Cain, and Bob Lively; Guards Claude Brawner, Lf-e Dunaway, and Jim Malone; and Centers J.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 18. first place at stake in both the Eastern and Western divisions the five games scheduled for tomorrow in the National Football League take on added significance. The tremendous spectator interest that has resulted in record-breaking paid crowds at Washington, Green Bay and Chicago and the second largest crowd in the history of N.

F. L. football in Detroit, may bring new attendance records in the fourth week of the mast exciting season in years. The Chicago Cardinals, pace-setters in the Western division, with three victories and no defeats, will meet Los Angeles, tied with Green Bay for second place with two wins and one reverse, in a game at Los Angeles that is expected to draw the top attendance of the day. Should the Rams and Green Bay win.

a Ihree way tie for first place the Western division will result with the Cards one of the three sharing the top position. Should the Cardinals win they would be in a commanding po.s tion at the conclusion of the first third of the season. Both the Chicago Bears and Detroit, the latter getting more potent as the season progresses, are hopeful of victory in their game in the Windy City. The Bears vanqui. bed the Eagles last wei while Detroit was losing a hard fought battle to Los Angeles.

The duel between Sid Luckman, the passer, and 11 Dudley, the runner and pass receiver, should be one of the best of the campaign. Washington, with Bronco Sammy Baugh, the terror of every defense set up against him in his familiar passing role, hopes to equal the series with Green Bay by winning in the game that will he played in Milwaukee. The Red-kins, after losing to Philadelphia, defeated Pittsburgh and New York while Green Bay won over the Chicago Bears and Los Angeles and lost to the front running Cardinals. Ted with Washington for first place, the Eagles, with Tommy Thompson enjoying a great ye.rr in pass ng and with the incomparable Steve Van Buren, hope to return to winning ways by defeating Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh. But Jock Suotherland and his Steelers have other views on that subject.

In third place with two wins and two defeats, Pittsburgh hopes to move into first place by winning from the Eagles. Green Bay, however, would have to make an assist by defeat ng Washington. Boston and New York, which battled to a 7 to 7 tie in their first encounter, will meet in the metropolis with fourth place in the Eastern Division at stake. Both teams have yet to display the offensive strength expected of them, although both gave ind cations last week that their running and passing attacks are greatly improved. There is not a team that can he counted out of the race in either division.

The Bears last week demonstrated that they are very much in the thick of the fight and it would not be surpr sing to find one or more teams creating an upset to scramble the 1947 chase for sectional honors. The series the teams shows New York with three wins and two ties in its five games with Boston; Philadelphia leading Pittsburgh with 12 wins to nine and one Green Bay has won three to two with Washington; the Bears have 15 wins to eight with Detroit and two ties and the Chicago Cards Los Angeles have each won one game in their abbreviated series. Opposing teams will have to set up a special defense for Ed Saenz, Washington's great kickoff return specialist. He ran 94 yards for a touchdown against both Philadelphia and New Ynk and has amassed the astounding total of 356 yards on nine returns, an average of 29 6 yards per runhai k. John Clement, of Pittsburgh, is rapidly becoming one of the league's ace ground gainers.

TRIPLICATE WINS RICH GOLDEN GATE HANDICAP Neville-Ruston Battle Friday May Determine District Class A Champ Tigers To Invade Bearcat Grid For Important Conference Game Tim Neville High School Tigers, after passing their only open date of the season the past week, begin preparations tomorrow for their important Class A conference scramble with the Ruston High School Bearcats next Friday night at Ruston. The Bearcats loom as the big obstacle in Neville's hopes of reaching the district championship playoffs, and Coach Bill Ruplc declared last night that his charges would have to he playing their best brand of football this week to repulse the hard- fighting Ruston eleven.

comparative scores the heavy Ruston team is favored in this contest which may well decide the district championship for one team or the Coach Ruple stated. But over at Ruston, Coach Garrdt is just as strong in nominating Neville as the favored team. has one of the finest lines in this section of the state this season, and that shifty halfback. Bucky McElroy, will be enough to cause any opponents all the trouble they want offensively any the Bearcat coach maintains. Ruston has spiked Neville title hopes for the past several years, and the Bengals haven't been able to heat the Lincoln parish club since 1937.

Last year Ruston bounced Neville, 27 to 0, and the lineup this year includes only Guards Ronald Gunter and Stevens, and Quarterback Stoney Smallwood from the starting lineup that faced the 'Cats last year. Neville went to Ruston as the favorite two years ago and came home a 13-6 victim of the Bearcat upset ability. Coach Ruple still well remembers what happened in 1915, and see to it that the Tigers go out fighting this week with the realization that Ruston is quite capable of aga ruining title aspirations. If Neville can get past Ruston, the Tigers will be decided favorites to whip Winnfield, Feniday, Bastrop, and possibly Lafayette In their remaining games. GOLDEN GOPHERS BOW TO ILLINOIS ALBANY.

The ponderous Gophers, entering the important Big Nine game with a string of three victories, suffered their first, defeat of the season before a wildly cheering partisan crowd of 56,048 in Memorial Stadium. In remaining undefeated in four games, the Illir.i cracked the Gophers "beef by drilling through a line which had a weight advantage up to a 21 pound per man and striking through the air against a pass defense that was nil. The Gophers slowness afoot enahled Moss, the migrant, from Tulsa University, to hurl a 25 yard scoring pass to Dwight Eddleman and then follow' up with a 54-yard aerial play tn Art Duffelmeier for two touchdowns in the first period. The Gophers, resorting to power plays which made Coach Bernie Bierman famous, rammed 60 yards for a touchdown at the outset of the second quarter. Bill Elliott knifed for 40 of the total yards and capped the effort by smashing over from the six.

A few plays later, Eddleman scored for the second time in one of the longest runs of the season. The high- jumping track start hugged Harry punt and streaked 89 yards. Minnesota shook off this dazzling play by scrambling 97 yards only to be denied entrance through the touchdown gate. Everetfe Faunco set the drive in motion by returning the kickoff 59 yards.
