All paths of glory have the same exit. Today, upon a rain soaked field, through intermittent drizzles, Northwestern's alert, powerful team halted mighty Minnesota's four-year unbeaten march when Steve Toth, slicing in back of Vanzo and Voights fell across the Gopher line at the start of the fourth period to give Northwestern a 6 to 0 victory in a contest fought desperately and savagely to the final play.

More than 49.000 spectators sat thrilled and soaked through a steady rain as Northwestern drove back Minnesota's brilliant rally in the last few minutes to protect those six points that meant the end of Minnesota's gridiron domination and left the Evanston Wildcats in front of the National parade. From 1932, when Michigan defeated Minnesota on Harry Newman's field goal in the final game of the year, to this gray October day, the Gopher Norsemen had never lost a game. They had run up a totai of 21 consecutive victories against the pick of the, land. But today, groping for No. 22, they found a team keyed up to the limit that took advantage of every Minnesota mistake and finally struck at the main moment with By Tod Rockwell ANN ARBOR, Oct.

31 Illinois' half-pint sized football team laid back its ears in the Stadium here this afternoon and snapped up just enough breaks to Join that select society known as "three-in-a-row." The Illini, supposedly punch drunk and weary of Big Ten football, were outplayed by the Wolverines of Michigan in all departments of football except that vital matter of Tiorale. And their margaln there wasn't so striking. But when the final gun had barked and 35,000 spectators were leaving the Stadium under overcast skies, the valiant men of Bob Zuppke had trounced the weighty lads of Harry Kipke, 9 to 6. It was the third successive time that Illinois had set back Michigan. And so today Illinois Joins Ohio State, Michigan State and the Thundering Herd of Minnesota as the only teams which ever have registered three successive triumphs over Michigan.

Bob Zuppke reached down rather deep Into the old-time Illinois defensive trick bag and pulled therefrom that old, old-time method of stopping a running attack.

I Pingel Passes for Two Touchdowns Second Quarter; Sub Leads Boston By Charles P. Ward RDRTON. Oct. 31 Michigan State will have to wait another year to gain revenge for the setback the Spartans suffered last year at the hands of Boston College's Eagles. The Spartans attempted to some 20 years ago.

It was good old-fashioned football and it was good enough to qualify Zuppke and his fighting little fellows for that "three-in-a-row" group. Line Had the Will Michigan again answered critics of its offensive football today with sparkling passes, laterals and quirk slants at the tackles. Michigan attacked as the first downs shmv. There were 13 for Michigan and two for Illinois. The Wolverines furnished virtually all the action of the game.

But the little Dutchman from Illinois, with his chin burled In his coat collar, had tne wnole business sewed up with a page from the Michigan book. Zuppke played the Michigan game. His men pounced on a fumble and had three points. His men blocked a kick and added a touch down. And then the Illini went into the famed old Michigan shell game.

They played defensive foot ball strictly, entirely and whole heartedly. And so it was a triumph louay tor tne Micmgan system. on, tno Michigan line had the will but not the skill to cope with this moth-eaten old defense. It pre sented new ana stranger blocking duties to tne young and weighty Mir' Iganders.

In justice to Minnesota it must be said that almost everything that can happen in a football game was needed to break up their long unbeaten march. These winning elements for Northwestern included, first a Minnesota kick that struck the soggy field and bounded back 20 yards to Minnesota's 46-yasd line.

On the next play Don Heap, North-western's brilliant back, ran 28 yards to Minnesota's 20-yard line. At tnis point tne uproar was deafening. Northwestern drove on to Minnesota's 12-yard line where Geyer barely missed a field goal. Then the fleet footed Uram fumbled on his own 13-yard line as Gibson fell on the ball. The uproar now picked up new volume.

Heap fumbled, but recovered the 15-yard line. This was a blow. But on the next play Minnesota was penalized to her own one-yard line for an extra turn of roughness and from this point Steve Toth dived across the line for the winning count as the fourth period opened.

The score was tied at 13 points apiece when the timekeeper's pistol ended the game and enabled the dour Gilmour Dobie to smile grimly as he walked off the field surrounded by his brown and gold clad warriors. The Eagles had to come from behind in order to gain the tie. They took the lead in the first quarter when a pass from Fella Gintoff to Tommy Guinea gave them a touchdown following a punting duel in which the talented Tony Di Natale gained an edge on Jack Pingel.

But the Spartans moved ahead by scoring twice in the second quarter, Lehnhardt making the first Harvard Ties with Princeton Interception of Pass Brings 14-14 Draw CAMP. RIDGE, Oct. 31 (AP) Harvard's gallant football youngsters gave ground against a seemingly vastly superior Princeton team and then put on a heart-stirring finish to gain a glorious 14-14 tie today before 35,000 frenzied spectators at Soldiers Field. As was the case 18 years agrl when the last Harvard touchdowns were scored against Princeton In a game that ended in a similar deadlock, the amazingly Improved Crimsorf forces waged a brilliant aerial battle to finish, on even terms against a rival that appeared at least five touchdowns better. Lynrh Scores for Tigers Battered to its knees by Armv and Dartmouth, Harvard was five minutes of game experience.

But this revamped and inexperienced eleven fought the Tigers tooth and nail and drew first blood In the second period. Three long overheads, from George Roberts to Don Daughters moved Harvard 40 yards to Princeton's three-yard line. From here Mai McTemen scored on an end run that caught tho Princeton secondaries flat-footed. The Tigers, Bnarling and raging, lost littlp time tying the score on a 25-yard end sweep by Bill Lynch, sub fullback from Bir mingham, Mich. Ken Sandbach passed to Bill Rawls for 35 yards, giving Princeton a first down on Harvard's three-yard line in the third session and the Tigers appeared to have the game under control when Dick White, who replaced Charlie) Kaufman at right half, plunged, over for the second touchdown.

State Inspired Irish Batter 0. S. U. Notre Dame Bristles to Triumph, 7-2 SOUTH BEND, Oct. 31 (U.

Again raising to inspired heighU against Ohio State, Notre Dame's gallant unpredictablcs battered out their second upset over the feared Buckeyes today, 7 to 2, before 55,000 drenched fans. Fighting the powerful Bucks with the same blazing fury that beat Ohio State in the dramatic masterpiece of 1935. Notre Dame thrust one touchdown through the air In the second period and finally stemmed a desperate Ohio drive 12 yard from the goal In the last few seconds. Just as Andy Pilney led the Fighting Irish through the air Inst fall, the underdog Irish again forward-passed the greyshirted Buckeyes into defeat after they had taken a two-point lead on a blocked punt early in the second period. Bain Ruins Ground Attack A nhnwer-soaked field ruined the Ramblers running attack In the second period, but with a clever mixture of three long forward passes and sharp drives Into the line, they moved the ball from their own 25 to Ohio's four-yard line.

Nevin McCormick, junior rirht halfback from Livermore, rlunged over left guard for the winning touchdown. Larry Danbom booted the extra point from placement. The Buckeves. crashing the Ue-hter Irish line deep into its own territory earlier in the period, scored their safety when Charley bounded through and blocked Joe O'NetU'a punt in the end zone, Not until the last minutes of the game did Ohio State's dazzling offense find the weak spots In the tlrine Irish. A 46-ysrd run by Nick Wasylik brought the Buckeyes up to Notre Dame's 46-yard line and with two quick passes to Johnny Bettridge and Williams, the substitute quarterback, engineered a drive to the 13.

Notre Dame Bristles Notre Dame bristled there and Ohio's greatest threat crumbled when Wasylik two desperate for ward passes thumped incomplete in the end zone. The lrlsn nrougnt. out the ball at a rapid clip and held possession as the game ended. By every comparison, Ohio State appeared superior until Notre Dame rallied in unison, the heavy Buckeye line, ripped repeatedly by Danbom and McCarthy, tightened in the second period and the Bucks drew closer in its futile auempi 10 nan vne Irish rush. The 26-to-0 defeat, by Titt burgh a week earlier apparently had given Notre Dame the experience Elmer Laydcn's third Irish eleven needed badly.

The blocking was cleaner and there were few faults in open field tack' line. The continuous rain hampered Ohio State, which depended upon smooth ball handling for its in tricate routines behind the line of scrimmage. The Bucks fumbled four times, at costly points but lost the ball only once in this manner. OHIO STATE Wenrtt UT. Mamrick lT.

Usif Haney missed the try for the extra point on the first touchdown but made good the second attempt, putting the Spartans ahead, 13 to 6, when the first half ended. The teams battled through the third period without further scoring, but the fourth was only half over when the Eagles cut loose with an aerial drive that netted them five successive first downs with 92 yards of territory and finally the touchdown that tied the score. The late and lamented K. K. Rockne once was quoted as saying that when he discovered a player on an opposing team whose name he found it difficult to pronounce, he usually warned his players to keep an eye on him.

The Spartans might have won today had they heeded the Rockne tip, for it was a halfback named Please Turn to Page A Column 8 Its Victory Yale Subdued by Dartmouth Safeties Aid Indians to Triumph, 11-7 NEW HAVEN, Oct. 31 (A. Looking like a winner all the way and beating Yale, 11 to 7, the Dartmouth football team today added another chapter to its history-making victory of 1935. When the Greenles from Hanover buried Yale under a 14-to-6 score last year, it was their first triumph since the rivalry between the two institutions started in 1884. The Indians completely outplayed Yale in the first three quarters.

They took a lead of 4-0 on a pair or sareues Dy cnariey Ewart, Yale back, and stretched it to 11-0 early in the fourth when John Handrahan crashed over from the one-yard line for a touchdown. But they came perilously close to being victimized by one of Yale's rousing last-minute rallies. One of Yale's prideful boasts that the Eus have never failed to score even when losing, since Lippy Larry Kelley, crackerjack end, made the team in 1934, was maintained when Kelley caught a seventeen-yard pass in the end zone with three minutes left, spar ing the sons of Eli a whitewashing. With one minute left, Bud Humphrey, reserve back, who tossed the touchdown pass to Kelley, shot a twenty-five-yard pass into the end zone, intended for Archie Hoxton, substitute end. Fred Hollingsworth, Dartmouth left halfback, and another Indian were standing on either side of Hoxton as the ball struck him in the chest.

It looked like an in completed pass, but officials ruled Interference and gave Yale the ball on the Indians one-yard line. Despite the break, Yale couldn't capitalize on it.

It was the second con was the second con secutive year in which the two teams have battled to a scoreless deadlock. A capacity crowd of 67,000 a complete sell-out watched the game.

Rose Bowl hopes went soaring in the Bronx tonight. Purdue is 1 next and if the Rams can keep their record clean against the Boilermakers, they are conceded to have an excellent chance of finishing the season undefeated. Go to Four-Yard Line The only scoring threat of the afternoon was furnished by the Panthers. Late in the third quarter they launched a 48-yard march that carried from mid-field to the Fordham four-yard marker. With Bob Larue, who was the best back the Panthers showed today, and the highly touted Marshall Goldberg, hero of the Notre Dame game, carrying the ball, as sisted at times by Frank Patrick, the Pittsburghers charged and passed their way to within the very shadow of the Ram goal.

But as the hundreds of Pitt supporters in the big crowd yelled for a touchdown, the oriiham line stiffened, twice stopped Larue In his tracks and Pitt's one good opportunity went a-glimmering. Goldberg Is Stopped Those who came to see young Mr. Goldberg run wild were dis appointed. Except for a 27-yard gallop to Fordham 20 in the second, the speedy West Virginian was almost completely bottled up by the Fordham forwards The Rams got no nearer the Pitt goal than the 27-yard line. The statistics show how evenly matched were the two teams.
