9 Write it Indelibly la the pages of football's history that Michigan Is one team that CAN and WILL come back. Out of the mire of defeat on the chalk marked gridirons none is more apt to rise to triumph or to rule than the Wolverines. Up to today stained by successive reverses In three major contests, the wearers of the Maize and Blue ascended this afternoon to rebuke the football realm in general and Harvard in particular. So tonight the colors of Michigan wave above the Crimson of the haughty Institution of learning In Cambridge because their standard bearers, world famed for courage and undying spirit, conquered when all the world refused to believe they could, or concede them a chance. The margin was small, Just two points, 14 to 12, but they served a multiple purpose.

They brought an eleven that had almost lost Its identity with Michigan, to the front, and that not only scored on a Harvard team for the first time, but beat the best football team the historic Vnlversity in the east sent from its campus in the past five years. 1 -ik jsMbtmwfc WWrniirnwinirnrni mniiw -i Ml To a Short Gain Tliis Time AA Bring Best Results 0 Score Mi TITANS SWAMP WESTVIRGMA Score Six Touchdowns in Last Three Periods After Rivals Threaten.

hose red-ler- seyed i a from ths University of Detroit left their imprint on the foothills of ths Alleghcnles here this afternoon and the versatile offense they unleashed shook the entire countryside and left the Mountaineers of West Virginia awe-stricken. Rising to the heights after being on the defensive through the first period, the Titans resorted to the air and, when the rival line weakened, ripped and tore the forward wall to shreds to gain the most one-sided victory scored over West Virginia In many a day. Th Mountaineers, unable to solve the tactics employed by the men of Dorais, were made to look weak and they were a badly demoralized aggregation as they trekked to the dressing room, the victims of 36-to-0 reverse. Conn-back Is Chewed. No team, not excepting Pittsburgh, which is rated one of the nation's leading elevens, had been able to do to the Mountaineers what the Titans accomplished this afternoon, and tonight the bill-sides are ringing with the cheer for the team that came back.

Determination overcomes many things. It was the determination of the Titans to make amends for their tie game with Marquette last week that enabled them to overcome a weight handicap and a more powrful line today and to earn ranking with the best teams in the east. Attracts Large Crowd. From all sections down hers among the hills came the largest crowd that ever has seen a game in the horseshoe stadium on the banks of the muddy Monor.gahela, and what they saw will be cause for much conversation up among the mountain tops. Hardy Mountaineers, interspersed here and there In the colorful gathering with those hardy sons of toil who eke out an existence in the coal mines, came to cheer the West Virginians, but left singing the praises of the Titans whose varied style of attack swept aside everything before it.

It was West Virginia day. the occasion for celebration, but there was no hilarity in this quiet little town tonlgh exept in tribute to Lloyd Braii. the Titan captain, and hi Continued on Page 1. Revenue W. VI KOI MA.

Before a large Dad's day crowd, the Buckeyes went down to defeat with only the preat Fesler being able to withstand the shock troops of the Purple Wildcat. It was Kesler, too, who gave the throng the biggest thrill of the game, when he grabbed a Purple pass out of the air on his own one-yard line and dashed 99 yards for a touchdown. Buss Eerpherm's wild plunges at the line, his long and accurate passes and his refusal to stay down when tackled, crushed the heart of the Ohio line and backs before the first quarter was over.

Wolgast Intercepts Lateral Pass and Runs 80 Yards for Touchdown.

BY ALLAN' GOILU. Chicago, 111, Nov. 9. (A. The Army's invasion of the western conference today crumbled on the plains of Illinois as a throng of 68,000 saw the Big Ten champions gallop to victory by the decisive margin of 17 to 7 in a series of spectacular "breaks." The swift and stunning turns of the wheels of football fortune saw Bob Zuppke's alert, hard charging eleven stage a great comeback, get the jump on the Soldiers and run up a first half lead that clinched the game.

These two astonishing "breaks," each resulting in a touchdown, came in the second quarter and left the Army forces dazed, bewildered and shell shocked. Poor Punt Costly. The first bombshell to strike the Cadet ranks was a freak punt by Hertz Murrell from behind his own goal line, a twisting, lofty spiral mai xraveiea less man yards converted into a touch-Ed Kawal, big Illinois Hmn hv uown center, after picking up the bound ing nan only eight yards from the Army goal. The second "break" came after Red Cagle Jiad led a forward passing counter charge deep into Illinois territory. It struck as Arnold Wolgast, an alert and youthful opportunist from Aurora, III, broke in to.

Intercept a short lateral pass from Cagle to Murrell and race 80 yards to another touchdown. In little more time than It takes to tell Illinois, with thn nIH nf a first period goal by Douglas Mills from the 20-yard line, had run up Its entire total of 17 points. The Army, led by Captain Cagle, came back gamely in the second half, nut its most gallant efforts pro- oucea oniy one touchdown and never seriously threatened the lead o' B'g Ten champions. Thrills Are Plentiful. The famous Cadet redhead per- sonally took the ball across for west foini only touchdown, on a three-yard dash through the line, but the best he could do otherwise was to harass the Illlni with a long range passing attack that repeatedly produced big gains.

There were plenty of thrills for the big and colorful crowd, which Included a host of army notables led by Secretary of War Good and General Summerall. chief of staff, as well as Governor Emmerson of Continued on Page 20. Mlchigans margin inuay was measured in kicks for points after the touchdown. Given two chances to boot the ball from the Held and over the crossbar, Gembls was successful In both, while Wood, kicker for the Crimson, missed by inches with one boot and lost the other chance when Bovard broke through 4nd blocked the kick. Harvard scored in the first and fourth quarters and Michigan In the second and fourth.

Few quarters held the thrills for a throng that the final one of this afternoon did. No eleven ever fought harder or with more fervor than Michigan's did then, either. Panning Is Brilliant. While the dusk of night was howing over the rim of the color-jplashed bowl. Harvard jinleauhed a forward passing attack that never has been equalled for brilliance and ucccss In this great monument to football, or the now obsolete ferry Held.

Michigan had scored her second touchdown in the fourth period and led In the score 14 to 6, when the dashing Crimson-clad athletes, reporting to the air, almost exclusively, completed seven successive passes, and carrying the Dan to the one-yard line, used White on a plunge to put it over. Nor did the scare end then, or even whc. Bovard surged through and blocked Wood's kick in the try for the extra point. The melting attack that swept Michigan be fore It and caused chills to surge through the legion partisans of the Wolverines was the weapon hat Harvard used to bore deep into the Wolverines' territory to the 20-yard line when the concluding gun was fired. But It Never Came.

Only one more successful pass and nohodv knew it better than the close to victory and cherished even the thought of it. Twice the sturdy arm of Quarterback Wood just missed by inches to drop the ball into the waiting arms of UTecelver. It was enough to make one's blood run cold, the thrill of two games packed Into 15 fleeting minutes that seemed more like hours. Will time ever be called? tald men were heard to ask. 'This suspense is awful." men the hark of the gun and a hrong of people, excluding the Harvard cheering section, paid the tribute to the warriors of Michigan so richly deserved.

Fight Biggest Factor. No factor in the victory was bigger than the remarkable fieht Mich- 7me v. and then to fight off a rival mad with tht lust for triumph. This was no better exemplified than in the fourth quarter that long will be remembered by the tye witnesses. In moments when it seemed that SJ the Wolverine line was torn apart by the cogs In the Crimson over- head attack and seven were com-i.

pleted without a slip the advance was reduced to a minimum. Invariably th catcher stood clear of everybody, but he rarely was permitted to take the first step. Michigan had a better defense for the long pass that was consistently grounded.

Minnesota Outplayed by Wide Margin Iowa Misses Other Chances. Iowa City, Nov. 9. (A. A tall, rangy youth, with a shock of hair as golden as Iowa's corn, dealt a stunning blow to Minne sota's championship hopes today, as Iowa conquered the hitherto undefeated Gophers, 9 to 7, before 000 frenzied spectators In the last bO seconds or play.

Oran Pape, a six-foot halfback weighing 170 pounds, was the hero of Iowa's startling triumph. He galloped away to a touchdown In the final minute of play, scamper ing across the goal from the six- yard line on a wide left end run after his team mates, in a desperate rally had battered their way in an irresistible charge that started at midfleld. Pape duplicated his achievement of a year ago in beating the Gophers and ruining their chances of winning the Big Ten championship. Gophers Are Outplayed. For three periods the Hawkeyes outplayed, outcharged and outran the powerful Gophers and possibly should have won by a larger score, or at least by another touchdown.

Iowa scored early in the first period, when Willis Glassgow, the Hawkeye captain, booted a goal from placement, the ball sailing squarely between the uprights from the IB-yard line. Then the Hawk-eyes, with Glassgow and Hagerty, the big fullback, carrying the ball, rushed it within six inches of Minnesota's goal as the period ended. As the second period started the Minnesota line, gaining strength by the respite as the teams changed goals, stiffened and hurled back the Iowa thrust, nailing Hagerty dead in his tracks as he smashed at the line in his attempt to gain the needed six Inches to score. The Gophers got the ball on the spot, and the danger for the time being was passed. Nagurski Is Switched.
