OUTCOME Of TILT QUITE UNCERTAIN STATE COLLEGE is NOT OVER CONFIDENT OF VICTORY SATURDAY NORTH DAKOTA HAS GREAT MACHINE Coach West Believes State Has the Power to Score Two Touch. downs Possibly. The West-Enke State college foot ball team faces the real test of the year next Saturday, Hobo day, when North Dakota university comes to State field for one of the biggest games of this section of the country this season. Coach Davis of the Flickertails has stated that he expects the State game to be the hardest one of the season for his team, and this despite the fact that he has what is considcred to be the strongest team in the history of the university. Reserved seats have already been disposed Of in large numbers and one Of the greatest crowds in South Dakota football annals is looked for on Stae field Saturday. The other Hobo day attractions, free barbecue, annual chrysanthemum show, cross country run, alumni reunion and hobo parade and stunts, will draw hundreds from far and neal II the weatherman smiles on the day. A study OF comparative scores made by the Flickertails and the Jackrabbits thus far this season seems to give State a little the edge on the North erners, but juggling with comparative scores Is dangerous business. North Dakota vas defeated by Minnesota 10 to 0. State was defeated by the University of Wisconsin “a to 8, being the only team to on the Bad gers this season. Wisconsin licked Minnesota 35 to 0. State beat the North Dakota Aggies “a to O.. The Flickertails defeated the same team 38 to 8. Coach West believes that if his backs can improve their work in hit ting the line and in running interior ence just a little bit and If his line a work a little more consistently in opening holes his machine can score at least two touchdowns on the Northerners during the course OF the game. 1t Is just a question as to whether State can stop the tricky aerial attack which the Davis men will resort to in case State drops their line plays. 1t was this aerial attack that sent South Dakota university down to defeat at Grand Forks two weeks ago. North Dakota university will prob ably depend upon her veteran line and sports writer’s of the north state figure that the Flickertail backfield is second to none in this part of the country when it comes to speed. stiffness, hard hitting and all around ability. But the eight or nine men who have Aggies’ backfield this fall are planning to do their utmost to convince the northern sports writer’s that they took in too much territory in ranking the Grand Forks aggregation so high. State played the same men last year at Grand Forks and held them to a 6 to 3 score. Backers of the West Enke machine believe that their team has shown more development than the N%ortherners have and so figure the locals have the best chance to win. The State machine continued to show real power last week end at WATERFOWL when they won from Montgomery’s Greyhounds IS to 0. State used practically nothing but straight smashes and end runs with an occasional trick play and but few forward passes. Coach West used every man that might have to be used against North Dakota here on Hobo day. Twenty-six players figured in last weeks game and with the exception Of Sundet, end, not a single man came out of the fray with an injury. The coaches do not hope to be so fortunate in the Hobo day classic. Coach Davis team beat the North Dakota Aggies last Saturday 38 TO 3 and as soon as the game was safe Davis pulled several of his regulars in anticipation Of the November 5 game. Wv. s. S.

Four Conference Teams Have Even Chances for Big Title Wisconsin, Ohio State, Chicago and Iowa Still Undefeated i’m the Race CHICAGO, Oct. 30.--Half way point in the Western Conference football season finds four elevens swinging into the championship deciding struggle with. even chances of gaining first place Wisconsin, Ohio State, Chicago and Iowa are undefeated, and picking the probable survivor is proving extremely difficult. : Saturdays games we’re rather color less, Wisconsin’s $50 victory over Minnesota being perhaps a little more one sided than predicted and Michigan’s 3-to-0 margin over Illinois closer than some had expected. None of the games affected the championship race other than to strengthen the conviction that the light will prove so close that only the breaks are likely to decide it. One of the most important games of the season will come next SATURDAY. here at Stagg Field, when Ohio State and Chicago will meet in contest like ~ to eliminate one from the race. ONO rested Saturday in preparation Tor tins battle, while Chicago, after its strenuous fight with Princeton the week previous, needed only substitutes to oyerwhelm Colorado, 35 to 0. Iowa maintained its tie for first place ia rather Disappointing 13-to-6 vic tory over Purdue. The Hawkeyes face Minnesota next Saturday at Minneapois, and then Indiana and Northwestern THIS schedule being almost certain to take them through the season undo Michigan through the s-to-5 victory ever Illinois still is a mathematical championship possibility, but few give tne wolverines much chance. Illinois, Fenefaily title contender, is fighting eniy TO get out of last place, while Purdue, Indiana, Northwestern and Minnesota have no show.
