    Notre Dame looked better against Pittsburgh Saturday, said Heartley Hunk) Anderson, Rambler men tor, today, and if we are to take his word for it, the Irish will score a touchdown in some one of the renaming five games against Navy, Purdue, Northwestern, Southern California and Army. AS it was, they took another lacing from Pitt Saturday and the Pan theirs became one of the few teams to defeat the South Benders twice in succession, and one of the very few to gain victory on Notre Dame soil. The score was 14–⁠0, and it was the same Mike Sebastian who started the Irish downfall at Pitt last year, who ran seventy-five yards Saturday to put the Panthers out in front, TO. Weisenbaugh was behind the final punch of 38-yard march for the second Pitt marker in the first half and while the PantherS didn’t threaten thereafter, neither did the Irish, very seriously. Carter Runs Fifty Yards Up at Madison, Purdue met a battling bunch of Badgers, and it took couple of finely executed plays to give the BoiIerrnakers a 14–⁠0 win. The Purdue line produced great defensive ball on a coupie of occasions when Wisconsin threatened to score and opened up a beautiful hole for Jim Carter to dash for his first forty-yard touch down. With Hecker on the tossing end, the Purdue passing attack showed up late in the game. One Of his long losses fell near the arms of big Duane PurviS and he took it one-handed and raced twenty yards for the points. Wabash was held to a 90 tie by Evansville; Butler took trouncing at Cincinnati, 34–⁠7; Valparaiso took st. Waters, 21–⁠0; Earlham outscored Button, 26–⁠18, and Franklin ran rough shod over Rose Poly, 26-O. Indiana State dropped Eastern Hi noiS, 1876, and Central Normal did likewise to Gary Junior college, 14–⁠0. Ball State fell again, this time to Manchester College, TO, and De Paw kept her slate clean for the season with 1910 win over a challonging Hanover eleven. Twelve First Downs The old saying, ‘it isn’t the first downs but the score that counts” is ringing in the ears of Coach John Van LEV and his little band of Hanover college gridders today as they recount how they scored twelve first downs against four for De Paw at Greencastle Saturday but walked of the gridiron beaten. Conceded a good chance to upset the undefeated Tigers, the Hilltop pers started out to go somewhere, but in spite of the fact they in tercepted passes and played the first quarter in Tiger territory, they | failed to make it over the last and / important line Hanover kicked off to open the second half and Bradley returned in fine manner for forty yards. He then passed to Volkman, who took the ball that was bounding around among defensive hands and romped 1 for a touchdown. De Paw got break in the last quarter when Hanover fumbled. The
