The Fall of Troy K'' Jimmy De Hart, one of Pittsburgh's best quarterbacks from the reign of Pop Warner, came across the lobby after Saturday's Pitt-U. S. C. party. i "I've just seen a strange sight," he said.

"I've seen a big-time football game where one team never delivered a single good kick-off, got away just two good punts and caught just one kick. I'm still dizzy." De Hart was referring to Southern California. The pendulum can luring a long, long way. It has taken the best teams of the country 10 years to beat Howard Jones' Trojans two games in a row, but unless there is a big change in their present play, the tumbling act has only startea a REGECZI FAILING TO MEET BERWANGER Upsets Make Life Terror for Grid Schedule Makers Chicago Rated an Even Bet to Beat Best Now Purdue Faces Tough Tilt with Badgers 'Sleeper Team CHICAGO, Oct. Bitter days are ahead for Western Confer, nee football tennis that must play Minnesota and Chicago.

The Maroons, after 10 years of discouraging defeat, rate along with Minnesota as the most dangerous championship threats In the Conference. All the strong teams In' the Big Ten, with the exception of Iowa, remain on Chicago's schedule, and the Maroons can throw the championship race into a mess almost any Saturday from now on. Coach Clark Shaughnessy' eleven meets Indiana next Saturday; Missouri, a non-Conferene eleven, the lollowing week, and then In order takes on Purdue. Minnesota. Illi nois and Ohio State.

Critical ob servers believe that the Maroons have at least an even chance against any of these teams, with the possible exception of Minnesota, which revealed great strength in walloping Nebraska, 20 to 0. Claim to Consideration Any team that can whip a proud University of Michigan eleven, 27 to 0, any yea becomes important in the Western Conference. The Maroons did that yesterday In reveal ing a wide assortment or ottensive plays, perfect timing and blocking. Shaughnessy has a find in Tommy Flinn, a 150-pound quarterback, whose blocking was highly effective and whose handling of the team was almost perfect. Shaughnessy also has two sparkling backfield stars In Jay Ber-wanger and Ned Bartlett, the latter looming up as a shining ball carrier with Berwanger the wheelhorse of the team.

Bartlett is elusive, powerful with promising ability as an open field runner. Minnesota, idle yesterday, was lay-irg up steam for its important engagement with the Golden Panthers of Pittsburgh next Saturday. The Panthers walloped Southern California, 20 to 6, yesterday, but they will have no such soft opposition in meeting the Gophers. Two Teams to Be Idle i Next Saturday's schedule also finds Georgia Tech playing Michigan at Ann Arbor; Wisconsin at Purdue; Colgate at Ohio State; Iowa at Iowa State; Carnegie Tech at Notre Dame, and Indiana at Chicago. Illinois and Northwestern have open dates.

Michigan probably will show more power against Georgia Tech with Bill Renner as a key man for its offense. Renner, a passer of extraordinary ability and possessing good football sense, Is important to the Wolverines' attack. Wisconsin, gathering momentum slowly but surely, appears to be the "sleeper" of the Big Ten. The Btdgers defeated South Dakota State, 28 to 7, yesterday and threaten to give Turdue a tough hat tie, hut Purdue's line obviously isn't what it was a year ago. Irish Confuae Critics Notre Dame, beaten a week ago by failure to kick a point after touchdown by a University of Texas team that was in mid-season form, came back yesterday to give the Boilermakers a real licking in winning, 18 to 7.

In doing so, Coach Elmer Layden confused the critics who were quick to count the South Bend eleven out after its opening game. Iowa, beaten 14 to 13 by Nebraska yesterday for the third straight year, appears to have too much for Iowa State this Saturday. Ohio State, which lost a heart-breaker to Illinois, 14 to 13, figures to triumph over Colgate. The Ohio -Illinois battle was a hard fought thrilling struggle, with the Buckeyes pitting a great running attack against a shifty, intricate passing offensive of the lighter Illinois, eleven. Ohio made an amazing comeback late in the third period when trailing, 14 to 0, rallied with fury to rush over two touchdowns almost before the Illini knew they were in retreat.

But he has not mastered the new etyle ball, -which Is thinner and harder to balance.

His passes in the W. and J. game last Friday were not as accurate as usual. He was not leading hi receiver In the cutom-ary manner and some of his passe wobbled and were going end over end at the finish. His passes helped the U.

Dick Lutz and Andy Karpus are both competent, but Nott still I the ace. It is certain that he will get In a good bit of practice thia week so as not to disappoint the Villanova players, who undoubtedly will hear plenty about him from their coaches this week.

averaged approximately 70 miles an hour in covering 100 laps at the V. F. Speedway Sunday in 43:34.25 to win the Motor City Racing Association's championship in the last event of the regular season. Myers added 100 points as a re sult of hi victory in the Crager Special and passed Carml Fraz-zini, who led in the point standings before the race. Doo Shanebrook, of Rockford, finished second a quarter of a mile behind the pacesetter and wa followed over the finish line by Bud Henderson and Johnny Wohlfell.

Frazzinl, who had the pole position, as he had ted in the point standings, assumed the lead at the start but relinquished hi position to Myers at the beginning of the eleventh lap. From then on Frazzinl' motor did not function properly, and he was forced to quit near the end of the race. Shanebrook passed Frazzinl at the twenty-sixth lap and pressed Myers closely for the first 75 lapa. At the fifty-fifty lap he overtook the leader but Myers spurted and regained first place. In the sixtieth lap Shanebrook made another determined bid when he drew alongside of Myers but again Myers rose to the occasion and shot ahead.

Shanebrook later developed mechanical diffieulites and wa no factor in competition for Meyer. With all threatening competition badly outridden, Mycr was content to drive at a leisurely pace to obviate any trouble. Henderson lost a lap to the leading cars in the first 10 laps and came back strongly to pass Frazzinl in the thirty-first lap for third place. Nine car of 14 to start finished as 5,000 looked on. Bill Mitchell lost control of his car a he wa making the west turn midway In the contest but with some good driving managed to keep the car away from the infield fence long enough to reduce speed before hitting It.

The famous pitching Deans, Dizzy and Paul, collected another $5,000 today for pitching two innings each for the Chicago Mills, a semi-pro club, against the Kansas City Monarch, before 20,000 fans. The Deans just went through the motions, but delighted a crowd that taxed tbe capacity of the park.

Paul worked first and gave up three hits and a run, striking out onK batsman. Dizzv also Yielded UliJ.e mis, but fanned three and scored on once. The two run off the World Series heroe were unearned, their temporary teammates making seven error behind them in four innines. The Mills, however, won bail game, 13 to S. to Beat Eagles Caddel and Clark Star in Dazzling Grid Triumph PHILADELPHIA, Oct.

14-Un-beaten and unscored upon In three previous National Pro Lengua bat-tlea, the Detroit Lions Invaded the Phlllle ball park today to keep their record Intact and their goal line uncrossed. Pitted against Lud Wray' greatly Improved Eagle, the Lions emerged triumphant, 10 lo 0, before a crowd that numbered In actual paid attendance 9,667. It wa a far closer game than even this (core would Indicate. Detroit, wa forced to call on every ounce of power in it dual backfield to turn back a fighting band of Eagle who did not seem to know when to quit, or how. Two breaks turned the tide la favor of the league leading Lion.

One wa a fumble early in the second period and the other a lateral that went astray in tne nnai pertoa and was recovered by an alert Detroit end. On both occasion the Lion had the ability to convert these scoring chance into needed points. Ernie Caddel was the first to take advantage of an opening. The former Stanford back dashed for the first and only touchdown of the game shortly after the Lions had taken possession of the ball on the Eagles' 22-yard line. "Dutch" Clark converted the goal following this nine-yard plunge by Caddel.

Later in the game Clark proved that his skill a a drop kicker was on a par with the ability of the other star in the Lion back-field. Clark Kick Field Goal Late in the fourth period, when the second break of the game came to Detroit. It was Clark who wa railed upon to demonstrate hi kick ing ability. This time he kicked a perfect field goal from the 25-yard marker and ended all possible hope for a deadlock on the part of the Eagles. To Caddel went further honor In the second period of the stubbornly fought battle.

Shortly after he had crashed over for the lone touchdown he was given another opportunity when Detroit took the ball on It own 18-yard mark following a long punt by Swede Hanson. After Detroit had ripped off a first down at the 20-yard mark. Caddel dashed around end behind perfect interference and covered 63 yard before he was brought to earth By Hanson on the Eagles' 18-yard line. Caddel and Clark were not the only stalwarts on the Detroit team. The great Glenn Presnell was a constant threat to the home force and once In the second half brought anguish to the crowd by essaying a field goal from the 28-yard mark.

The kick went wide of the mark. Lions Defense Great Detroit owed its success not so mtiok Tll 5. fense thrown up by one of the finest lines that has ever plaved professional football in this section. Unable to gain through th cen-ter of the line, the Eagle were forced to try the air and 26 time the ball wa flipped by on of the hard-working backs on the home eleven. So strong was the defense of the Lion that only five of the passe found their mark.

During the flrat half the Lion outclassed the Eagles, but in the second half the Wray coached eleven played as well a the In-vadera Altogether the Lion mad 11 first downs, against eight for the Eagles. Six of the Eagles' downs were made In the final half. In yard gained from rushing the Lion barely shaded the Eagles. On hundred and forty-five yards were credited to Detroit, and 131 yards were ripped off by Swede Hanson and hi teammates. DETROIT T.Mil.r.f Mltrhell t.K Pllronl, 1..

Bj i Clnrtisell M1 ICHIGAN failed to meet a halfback by the name of Jay Berwanger at the "crossroad." Therein lies the story of Mich- igan's 27 to 0 defeat at the hands of the Chicago Maroons. The crossroad is the spot where a tackier meets a ball carrier. The crossroad also is the spot where a thrown ball lights on the fingers of the man for whom it was intended. Any person who had aaid before Saturday's game that there was a team anywhere that could sweep the ends of any Big Ten team that person would have been scoffed at. Sweeping ends is almost out.

It's what high school players learn not to do In their early teens. The reason for It is that a smart end, and there are plenty of them, will "float" with the carrier and run him out of bounds for no gain or tackle hftn for a loss. Further reason for it is that a smart halfback will break up any attempt to sweep by dashing In behind his "floating" end and cut. down the runner. Berwanger swept the Michigan ends because the Michigan secondary failed to meet him at the crossroads.

The Wolverines were slow arriving there. Consequently they were chasing Berwanger rather than meeting him properly at the crossroad and stopping him at the line of scrimmage. ILLIS WARD, Mike Sav- age and Matt Pattanelll are good ends. They played well Saturday and exactly as they were coached. They were told to "smash" everything that came their way.

They did this well. The idea behind it was for the ball carrier to be "skinned" of his interference in order to give the secondary a good shot at him. But Jay and his estimable running mate, Ned Bartlett, ran wild because the Michigan secondary failed to do its part after the ends had "smashed." The secondary was not resourceful enough to shift with Chicago's flanker attack and meet its variations. It did not play wide enough on the strong side. Consequently when Jay started around end the flanks jammed the Michigan secondary In toward center, enabling Jay actually to run around the Michigan ends.

Had Charlie Bernard or Stan Fay been in the game Jay would have found rough going. Those experienced players would have solved the situation after the first gain. But Gerald Ford, Vincent Aug and Ce-dric Sweet did not have the background of Stan and Bernard. Too often they were chasing Jay instead of knocking him down at the line of scrimmage. A1 ND now about this Jay.

Fielding H. Tost. Klpke, Wallie Weber and Oosterbaan wonder if Jay Is as fast as Grange was 10 years ago. Some observers say he Is. It Is certain that he has much of the certain something which made it difficult to meet Red at the crossroad.

Jay has a deceptive pace. He takes tremendously long strides and at times it appears that his knees are aa high as his chin. Some of the Michigan tack-lers said they got right up to him ready to dive for a tackle only to find that Jay had some apeed left. He'd turn It on and the Michigan lads would hit the ground behind him after getting just a piece of his heel. Clark Shaughnessy, Chicago' able coach, had something in the bag for Michigan.

He showed Wolverine scouts a single flanker attack with Rainwater Wells in motion, but against the Wolverines he used a two and sometimes a three man flanker. That meant that the three flankers each took a man. One hit the end, another smashed Into the Michigan tackle and a third hit at the fullback. They did a mighty neat job of it, but the Mich I-gan boys played right Into their 'hands by failing to shift. MICHIGAN'S mistakes in every department of the game contributed, a great deal to make Chicago appear to be a strong team.

But Chicago will be stopped cold in the Conference Just as soon as a smart secondary meets Jay and Ned at the crossroad. They talk much of Michigan's punt and pass system. It is understood that Michigan always is supposed to have a tough line. Even though Jay was running around the ends, Michigan was supposed to rely on punting and passing. -Regeczl didn't do his usual Villanova may be waiting for Nott, but It I hard to atop a forward passer from connecting when you don't know where be is going to throw.

He 1 usually at least one up. And Nott ha some good receiver i Co-Captain Paul Storrl.

Against the panthers their topped kick-offs rolled along the ground many of their hurried punts traveled from 7 to IS yards they let! the ball, toe-driven by Munjas, travel from 60 to 80 yards before it came to rest. In addition to this, they lacked speed, alertness and keenness their blocking was fuzzy and, outside of Warburton and Wotknys, they had no one else who could run or pass, barring Clemens on, the receiving end.

This 1934 edition of the Trojans la a startling drop from the 10-year group on a pax with Notre Dame's debacle a year when the South Bend simoon turned into a zephyr. Pitt Pittsburgh outclassed her western rival in speed, ball-carrying, block ing, tackling and Kicking. The Panthers picked up margin of 200 yards in kicking alone, twice the length of the field, if you include running back punts, which is part of the kicking idea. Pitt put oft a fast, slashing of fense that had one vital weakness. Her cross blocking in the line was loaded up with holding penalties that cost valuable ground all the afternoon, as she was socked on play after play.

Strict officiating will keep her team neck high in trouble the rest of the year unless it reforms in this department. Pitt had a set of fast, useful backs ready in Weinstock, Nickslck, La rue, wemenDaugn, muiijm ana nun- dour backs with speed and drive-two stout guards in Ormlston and Shotwell in. fact, a good, all-around team, strong enough to give even Minnesota quite an argument thia week. The East has shown no better kicker than Miller Munjas, who stopped the final Trojan threat with one fancy drive of 79 yards. Cotton Putt on Show Cotton Warburton, working almost, alone, had just put on an 80-yard touchdown march to end the second period a nine-yard line thrust, a 14-yard run, a 41-yard pass to Clemens, a touchdown pass to the same back.

Warburton, despite a leg Injury, was threatening again with the aid of Wotkyns in the third period, when Pitt checked the march and Munjas, standing on his own 12-yard line, hammered out a kick that traveled just 79 yards to the nine-yard line of the startled and staggered west. That was the wallop that wrecked the house of Troy and brought it down in ruins- In spite of this victory, the Panther will have to show more smoothness next week to halt the wild march of Minnesota's galloping Gophers, with Lund, Kostka, Clarkson and others on top of the job.
