Illinois, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, Stanford, University of Southern California and Washington won predicted victories in their encounters. Neb-aska’s sophcmcres made fans forget about last weeks crushing defeat at the hands of the Gophers when they Unbiased the scoring punch which gave the Cornhuskers a IA TO Is victory over Iowa and the lhird consecutive one-point win for the Big Six conference champions against the hawkeyes. Panthers Claw Trcjans In the presence of $4,000 spectators Pitts Panthers clawed and rushed their way through Southern Califor- MAS Trojans to the eastern melody of 20 to 6. Wisconsin fulfilled expectations by defeating South Dakota State, q to u, but not until the Badgers had recovered from the shock Of being scored upon in the first five minutes Of play. Hitched to a quartet of quick -striking ball carriers, who gave every prom iSe of duplicating the dazzling ceeds Of the immortal -Four Horselnen” OF 1924, Elmer Layden’s Notre Dame football machine rode out Of the grid iron wilderness with a decisive Is to 7 conquest over Purdue.

    BIC TEN IS TOPSY TURVY Chicago Heads Standings After Years Of FlOundering In Conference Cellar 8t 1 CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. 5. - The Big Ten football standing looked distinctly upside down tcday, with Chicago on top ana Michigan on the bottom. Chicago which has been floundering the cellar for years, scored one of the biggest surprises in recent conference history Saturday by overwhelming Michigan, sup RENE in the Big Ten for the past tour years, 27–⁠0. This dizzy football season will produce many more upsets before the years finale, but the midwest is not likely TO have another such shock as Chicago’s rout of Michigan. 1t was one Of the most decisi’ve football defeats ever handed Michigan team, and the worst licking the Wolverines have suffered since Red Grange ran wild with four touchdowns in II min utes in 1924 and Illinois rolled up a 29-l4 triumph. Chicago hasn’t the top Of the Big Ten to itself, as it has to share the leadership with Illinios and Iowa, each victorious in its one conference game. Michigan also has company in the basement, with such strange bedfelloWs as Indiana and Northwestern. Each has lost its only conference start. Four Unbeaten Going into the fourth week OF the season, only four conference teams boast unbeaten records. They are Chicago, Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota. 5s,&” Minnesota, which wen its two non-conference games convincing ly, is a stronger favorite than ever to win the Big Ten title. -. In a wild, spectacular. offensive battle, Illinois triumphed over Ohio State, 14–⁠13, avenging s7–⁠6 defeat suffered at the hands of the Buckeyes last year. ..r Conference teams had q sad day in outside games. Wisconsin beat South Dakota State, 28–⁠7, but the Big Ten couldn’t come up. with victory in four other games. Stan ford routed Northwestern, 900, Notre Dame trimmed Purdue, 1871. Nebraska, Blk Six champion, hand ed Iowa its third straight one point defeat in three years, l4–⁠13, Indiana gallantly held Pop Warn er’s strong Temple team tos,a 6–⁠6 tie. Minnesota, getting ready for it’s big battle with Pittsburgh this week, was idle.
