Capitalizes on Fumble but Can't Offset State's Score After Opening Kick Off Blunder By Lewis H. Walter EAST LANSING, Nov. 17 After virtually presenting Michigan State College with a touchdown in the first minute of play, University of Detroit outfought its favored rival fof the rest of the game and then lost, 7 to 6, here today. It was the thirteenth game of the series and an unlucky one fof Detroit. The State victory evened the count on the series, each team having won six games and one having ended in a tie.

State's winning play came after a mental lapse on the opening kickoff when the Detroit players, attempting to form interference for a return of the ball, let a wave of Spartans race through their ranks and recover the rolling ball on the 25-yard line. It was not a fumble. It was a free ball and the recovery by the Spartans meant that State had a first down on Detroit's 25-yard line. State grasped the scoring opportunity by rushing in Kurt Warmbein its most bnllant halfback, into thef tAaak FOR TITANS' ONLY SCORE, Versatile Tricky Attack Makes Game Rout at Close Crowd of 68,000 Sees U. of M.

Unable to Stem Onslaught By Tod Rockwell COLUMBUS, Nov. 17 Ohio State University's football team smothered Michigan, 34 to 0, in the stadium here today with a versatile array of lateral and forward passes and a running game which worked with fine precision behind a staunch line. More than 68,000 spectators, an attendance record for Western Conference football this fall, saw Francis Schmidt's Buckeyes whip the Wolverines with deftness and dispatch. The Scarlet team scored five touchdowns, being held scoreless only in the third period. Starting slowly, but with certainty, Ohio counted in the first period, added another touchdown in the second, and then was stopped for IS minutes.

But the Buckeyes leaned on the throttle in the final stanza and routed their old rivals with three sparkling touchdowns. Place kicks added four more points. Dick Heekin, Ohio's best halfback today, started the scoring with a one-yard plunpe through the line. Damon Wetzel, a first-class fullback, scored the second after a four-yard drive. Frank Antenucci, one of Ohio's many good halfbacks, accounted for the- third when he pounced on Jack Smith's fumble in the Michigan end zone.

Capt. Regis Monahan kicked three other extra points to bring his season's record to 21 goals in 24 attempts. Ohio showed a good ball team today. It opened the game with a running attack. Then it added a brilliant series of laterals which spread a Michigan defense, fanned out to stop the laterals.

When the Michigan team was sufficiently spread, several smart tate pilots drove the attack at the JWicnigan line.

From a fake punt formation, Quarterback Jerry Roscoe faded back on fourth down and threw a high pass down the "center alley." It looked like a wild pitch until Larry Kel-ley, rangy right end, leaped high, stopped the ball with one hand, grabbed it and started off on a tangent from Princeton's 25-yard line.

Warmbein failed to gain on the first play, but it didn't matter, for Detroit was offside and the ball was placed on the Titans' 20-yard stripe. On the next line-up Warmbein raced 20 yards around his own right end for a touchdown. Fine blocking aided him.

He was hit by Doug Nott, Detroit fullback, as he crossed the line, but the ball was over. Then Art Brandstetter, sophomore fullback from Ecorse, placekicked the extra point which later events proved was the margain of victory. From then on the 20,000 spectators who filled the Spartan Stadium saw Detroit outrush and outplay State all the way. State got past mldfleld only once more against a Titan team that looked brilliant excepting when it came to getting the ball over the goal-line. Fumble.

It was a break brought through hard tackling that made Art Brandstetter fumble on his own 15-yard line, where Co-Capt. Paul Storrie receovered the ball for Detroit Three plays later the ball was over the State goal line. Doug Nott whirled through center for 11 yards on a spinner play. Johnny Wlec-zorek, the sophomore fullback, cracked over right tackle to within two feet of the goal line on the next play. He bucked right tackle on the next play and forced his way through a mass of tacklers for a touchdown.

Nott went back to try for the extra point with Jones set to hold the ball. The pass from center was low and Nott was hurried to kick after Jones had hastily put the ball in position. The ball sailed low and wide, leaving the score, With that low kick went the ball game, but a Detroit team that was making its best fight of the season would not believe it until the last gun sounded. Nott's Placeklcks Mlu Before Detroit scored its touchdown it had already knocked on the door once with a drive to the one-yard line. In the second quarter the Titans made a drive which brought them to the five-yard stripe and twice later Detroit was In position to make placekicks.

Nott tniBaed one In the third quarter after the Titans had marched to the 13-yard line and another of his placekicks was blocked in the fourth quarter when the Spartans halted a V. of D. drive on the six yard mark. It was the tvpa of football game which had the fans out of their seats more than in them as the Titan underdogs, trailing by one point, dominated the play. Chance as well as the Spartans constantly stepped In to halt the Titan drives.

Strangely enough the Titans, who with th Adda atrainat them in earlier games, this time fought back: alter wnar. iookbu iim a demoralizing State touchdown. A break helped them keep their confidence. On the second play after State's score, Nott kicked from his 40-yard line to quarterback Russ Reynolds who fumbled on his 18-yard line, where Bobby Burns, midget Titan guard, recovered. Karpus and Nott gave Detroit a first down on the State eight-yard line.

Karpus made a yard and Nott followed with a smash over right tackle that carried the ball to the four-yard stripe.

Nov. 17 The Detroit Red Wings, still In full flight, climbed Into a tie with Boston and Chicago for first place In the American Division of the National Hockey League by blanking the Canadiens here tonight, 3-0.

The result turned the tables on the Flying Frenchmen and young Wllf Cude, who, playing In goal for Canadiens, last season blanked the Red Wings in the opening game here by the same score. Tommy Anderson bagged his first goal as a major leaguer to give the Wings the lead In the first period and Lewis rang up his first counter of the season in the second session. Eddie Wiseman accounted for the Wings' third goal midway in the third period when he took Gordon Pettinger's perfect pass and beat Cude with a good shot from 10 feet out. Morenz Is Mimed It was the second defeat tn as many starts for Canadiens, who did not look the same with Howie Morenz missing from the line-up. The Frenchmen lacked their old dash and were completely outplayed throughout by the fast skating of the Wings who again were checking back like hornets all night.

Normle Smith was not as busy as was Cude, but the Wings goalie played faultless hockey. He made at least a half dozen sensational saves, one in the last minute of the game off Paul Raymond that cheated the Frenchmen of a goal and gave Smith his first shutout as a major leaguer. The Red Wings were travelling as fast as they were last Thursday night when they trounced the Rangers 8 to 2. Their passing was good and they were clicking in close. The defense was another stone wall that gave Canadiens no end of trouble and when the defense was beaten on a few occasions, Smith was unbeatable.

Cude Tested Early Carson gave Smith, the Detroit goalie, the first tough chance of the game but Normle took it on his chest, Aurles dropped a hard shot on Cude's chest Cude was covered with horseshoes as Aurle and Wei-land drove hard from close In. Cude again went down to the Ice to beat Aurie and the lines were changed. An offside took a goal from Du-guid. Graham drew a penalty for tripping Crutchfield, but on the first play Anderson beat the whole Cana-dien t'-am to a loose puck and smashed it past Cude for the first goal. Portland drew a penalty for tripping Anderson on the play.

Smith made a sensational save from Crutchfield. The first string lines came en again midway in the period. Jollat's rush ended in the goal mouth with Buswell clearing.

Eleven stalwarts In blue, eleven "iron men" of Yale who laughed at the odds and the opposition, rose to magnificent heights of gridiron achievement today and swept Princeton from the ranks of the nation's unbeaten teams in the most spectacular upset of the 1934 football season. The score was 7 to 0. An astounded and electrified crowd of 62,000, jamming Palmer Stadium's concrete horseshoe to capacity, saw the gallant Ells seize the opportunity for a first-period touchdown, staunchly defend their lead against two crushing counterattacks and crown their dazzling triumph by playing throughout the game without a substitution. The Bulldogs entered the game as underdogs, on the short end of to 1 odds and conceded no more than an outside chance to topple one of the most formidable squads of gridiron talent in the country, but they sprang upon the unsuspecting and bungling Bengals with such ferocity that all thought of a Princeton walkover was speedily dispelled. Leaps High for Fast The Elis, in the most stunning form reversal of the season, ended the Tiger winning streak of 15 consecutive games.

It was Princeton's first defeat since the Bengals were trampled at the end of the 1932 season by Yale, 51 to 14, and oromotlv established the Blue as favorite to capture ita first "Big; Three" championship tn a decade. I Moiwhrin Ci. Jones i KMil r. Wrtirl 4 Mirhlwn 0 0 0 W'twl. Antenuivl.
