Madison East at William Horllck. Washington Park at' Madison Central. Janesville at Beloit. While Kenosha enjoys an open date occasioned by the transfer of its Oct. 24 game with Madison West to Sept.
19, JanesviDe will seek to pull up on even terms with the Red Devils. The Bluebirds play at Beloit Friday night in the feature game of the night. William Horlick returns home to meet Madison East, one of the defending co-champions who are definitely out of the 1942 Big Eight conference title race. Washington Park takes on Madison Central, the other, at Madison. Horlick ancj Park have only mathematical chances of figuring in the cham-? pionship following defeats last week.
Both Beat Park. Janesville has won from Wash4 ington Park and Madison Central while playing tie games with Madison East and Horlick. Kenosha defeated Madison East, Madison Central and: Washington Park while playing ties with Madison West and Horlick. The'Reds have yet to play Janesville and Beloit, For the 25 years from 1912 to 1937, when Janesville won a Big Eight conference co-championship in football, the Bluebirds did not win a game from Beloit. Since that time they've broken about even with the Purples.
On Friday night it will be Beloit shooting for an upset and the Purples will have a good chance to slip the Blues their first setback. Hence Janesville can win Friday night and share the lead with Kenosha or lose and drop into a tie for second with Madisorj West and possibly Park and Horlick. i Horlick, which has one of the best defensive records in the Big Eight, meets the team with the poorest offensive record in Madison East. Park, which has trouble crossing the goal line despite big advantages in yardage gained over opponents, faces a tough task at Madison. Park hasn't won a game at Madison since 1939 when it took the conference championship, losing, to West in Madison in 1940 and to Central and East in 1941.
Scoring Statistics. Due chiefly I to the 33 points it scored against Madison West Park leads the teams in scoring with 46 points. Kenosha is second with 37 points and second, on defense with 18 points. Jaiesville leads on de- fense with 12 points for opponents. Horlick has yielded but 20.
John McGuire scored two touchdowns against Madison Central to share the individual lead with Paul Berg rf Central at 18 points each. BIG EIGHT TEAM SCORING rf Team Beats Stanford, Cadets After Setback CHICAGO, Oct. 20. U.E) The resurgence of Notre Dame to a place among the mid-west's loot-ball elite today was attributed largely to the play of a youngster who couldn't win his monogram as a sophom*ore Guard Harry Wright; Lineman usually are obscured by the brilliance of backfield men, but not Wright The six-foot, 190 pound gridder from Hempstead, N. had to click in the clutch before the Irish began to roll in Ray Robinson Gets Decision His Best Punches Can't Put 'Jannazzo Down PHILADELPHIA, Oct.
20. 1 --Unbeaten Ray "Sugar" Robinson won his. 37th straight bout at the arena last night, but tough Izzy Jannazzo shared the crowd's cheers by absorbing all of Ray's Sunday punches without once hitting the canvas. Robinson hit'Izzy with everything in the book, from left jabs and right crosses to right upper-cuts to the chin and body, but outside of seeing the Birmingham, veteran totter in the first, third, fourth and ninth rounds, the Harlem jolter had to be content with a 10-round decision. Jannazzo Happy.
Jannazzo, a 10 to 1 underdog and 3 to 1 to be stopped before the final felt so elated at the finish that he turned a cartwheel in the ring. His toughness may have upset Robinson's immediate ring plans. Dr. W. B.

CU.R) Flushed with three victories in four games on the road, the Marquette university football team' had to be reminded by Coach Tom Stidham yesterday that one of the few undefeated teams of the nation will be their opponent in the first home game of the season Oct.

Couts reported that Ruman is the team's outstanding performer, having registered heavy gains in running and passing against all Wildcat foes this season. Arizona has defeated all of its four opponents thus far.
Ruman was one of the nation's pleading Offensive threats last 'season. Light defensive drill against a pass attack marked Marquette's practice session yesterday, i Slight injuries were sustained 'by Dany Forecki, but it was believed that the backfield man will be in shape for the Wildcat game.

P. HANSEN CO. 151S WASHINGTON Art. Notre Dame was tied by Wis consin and beaten by Georgia Tech in its first two starts. Then Wright was given the signal-callng duties and the field direction.
He delivered in a big way as the Irish downed Stanford 27 to 0 and trampled the previously unbeaten Iowa Naval Cadets 28 to 0. Saturday Wright attempts to continue his magic touch as Notre Dame meets Illinois in the section's outstanding game. He's a Gambler, As a sophom*ore Wright played fullback, but didn't see- enough service to win a letter. As a junior he was switched to quarterback and split the assignment with Bob Hargrave as Notre Dame went through its arduous nine game schedule unbeaten. Piloting a team through a season unmarred by defeat was proof of Wright's tactical talents, but it didn't win him permanency of position.
Head Coach Frank Leahy saw greater need for Harry elsewhere and this season he was switched to guard. Although the posi tion was strange to him Wright was a capable performer in the Irish's first two starts, but the team didn't click. Then he was given the added burden of calling signals in an effort to restore the efficiency of Notre Dame's offense, The records of the last two games speak for themselves as to Harry's ability to call the proper play at the proper time. Wright is a gambler on the football field. He scorns orthodox methods in favor of the surprise element.
Against the Iowa Cadets he had the experienced Seahawk linemen baffled constantly by the manner in which he mixed his choice of plays. Heavy Schedule. While it was feared that Wright would be handicapped: to some extent in calling plays by his inability to spot the defensive alignment from his position, it hasn't turned out that way. From his place "up front" he's been quick to note weaknesses and take advantage of them. i Wright is bigger than the "watch charm" guards that the late Knute Rockne favored, but he has one asset that they always possessed speed.
Harry can pull out of a line to lead a play as well as any performer in the mid-west. In the game against Illinois Wright will face another guard Who has proved a great opportun-isl-Alex Agase. Agase scored two touchdowns as Illinois beat Minnesota and blocked a kick to set up a score in the triumph over Iowa.

UP) Central high school has solved the transportation problem for its athletic teams and, at the same time, football and basketball coach Murray Mendenhall has become a bus driver. Central has no athletic field and conducts football practice at a city park about a mile and a half from the school. Buses! were used to transport the boysj until wartime restrictions put an end to that.
During the summer Central bough a big used truck from a fruit company, equipped it with a canvas top and side curtains. Each day Mendenhall loads his football players into the truck and haute them to and from the practice field. But that isn't all. With rail and bus lines jammed. Mendenhall plans to use the truck to haul his basketball and football players to and from out-of-town games.
All equipment will be hauled in the truck and the school has, taker out accident insurance to protect the boys. Arizona to Take 30 Men on Trip TUCSON, Oct 20. (JP) The Arizona Wildcats spent yesterday limbering up after Saturday's battle with the Oklahoma Aggies. The squad will have only two practices before meeting the red-hot Marquette squad in Milwaukee Saturday night. Mike Casteel, Cat coach, said he will have to put a bruised squad on the field, and is planning to entrain with only 30 men Wednesday.

Leo Durocher, Dodger "manager, earned the title of hitter in a clutch" during1 the 1934 world series, in which the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Detroit Tigers.

(JP) Paul Hirsbrunner, first string tackle, has been namd Wisconsin's captain for the Badger gridiron engagement with the battered Boilermakers' of Purdue at Lafayette Saturday. Hirsbrunner, a senior, is one of the m6st reliable performers in the Badger forward wall, and played; outstanding ball against Great Lakes last week.
He also was captain for the Camp Grant game, Get Pass Defense. Members of the first and second elevens who saw action against practice yesterday after a review of Saturday's mistakes and a short drill on some new plays. The third stringers, however, were put through a stiff scrimmage with the squad. Coach Harry Stuhldreher said most of this week would be spent on pass defense. "Purdue has Chester, Smock and others to do its passing, and all of them are good," the Badger coach said.
"They also have some good receivers. As usual Purdue has a fast team, and it will be a job to keep up with them all afternoon." Despite the 26 to 0 walloping the Purdues got from the fast-stepping Ohio State team, Stuhldreher believes the Boilermakers are a dangerous foe. He said: At Top Strength. "Against Northwestern, Purdue controlled the entire game except for a few minutes at the end. That was after two straight lickings.
They may bounce back at us. They are a hard team to diagnose. The game is down there and it is their homecoming day. They may be way up for us." Wisconsin, on the other hand, is expected to be in peak physical condition for the Players-who saw action aganist the Bluejackets escaped serious injury, and the two ailing regulars, Pat Harder, and Bob Hanzlik, end, are improving. Harder was used only for two extra kick trys, while Hanzlik was sidelined the entire game.

The Chicago Cubs' muddled first base situation, which they tried futilely to plug by buying Jimmy Foxx from the Boston Red Sox in June, might be cleared up completely next year by German-born, South Amerian-raised Heinz Becker, who comes to the Cubs by way of Milwaukee. Bill Veeck, 23-year-old president of the Milwaukee Brewers, sold Becker to the Cubs at the close of the American Association season, and he is the loudest to sing the praises of the speedy first sacker. Started Late, Becker and Eddie Stanky, Brewer shortstop, were the league's top hitters in 1942, Stanky hitting. 342, and Heinz, .340. Both were sold to the Cubs but Stanley's draft board at once beckoned him to the army.
Becker, married and the father of two children, is a good bet to stay around awhile. "Heinz is 26 years old," Veeck pointed out, "but he's been in base ball only five years. Here's how it happened: "He was born in Berlin and when he was just a little kid his folks took him to South America where he lived until he was about 14 years old. Naturally he was different from kids brought up in the United States, who play baseball from the time they're able to hold a bat. VSo Heinz never looked at base ball as a career.
Instead, after hi3 family moved to Dallas, Texas, he went to work as a kettle man in a brewery, and played some on the brewery baseball team.1 "The fellows who headed the brewery also ran the Dallas club. and when they saw Becker's hit ting they said, 'nix on, this brew' ery job, you play baseball in the Texas league and we'll give you your job back at the end of the "You know the story.

He socks a terrific line drive No kidding, he must have driven half a dozen holes in our tin scoreboard this year.
"The Cubs won't have to worry about any opposing players fool ing around at first base, either. Heinz is an ex-boxer, weighs around 210 and stands 6 feet 3 inches tall.

"It appears from a first series of X-rays that he has fractured the left transverse process, of the fourth lumbar vertebra," the phy sician, Dr. A. G. Armstrong, explained.
"It is not serious but it is a painful and disabling injury. i. Spartan Alumni Top Wolves, 10 to 2 EAST LANSING.

U.P.) Asa S. Bushnell, executive director of the central office for eastern intercollegiate athletics, said today that any plans to abolish Intercollegiate football at the end of the current season "constitute an unsound policy on the part of those contemplating such action." i Bushnell's statement contrasted with one by President Everett Case of Colgate university saying the war would make continuation of football impossible after this year.
Bushnell declared that despite legislation to draft 18 and 19-year-old students, football and as many other intercollegiate sports as possible should be continued as long as there are sufficient candidates to form a team, ii He told tire Colgate president in a letter that "calling the present season college football's last for the war's duration may be an accurate prophecy but I sincerely question if it is sound policy."

When Bob Steuber of Missouri isn't running, he's passing, and it all adds up to a harrowing afternoon for; the opposition. It depends I on what kind of a line he's playing against what Steuber Passing or running, he scores.
Thus far this season the all-conference halfback and the one choice of. the Big Six conference for All-America has run up 63 points, more than double the point-making of any other player in the circuity Runs and Passes. Against Kansas State Saturday, Steuber ran 203 yards from scrimmage in 10 tries for a per run average of 20.3 yards. The week before he passed against a bruising Wisconsin line, and although 'the Tigers lost, they outplayed Wisconsin in the air, 170 yards to 19. Steuber was on the throwing end until his injury in the third period.
No team in the conference has yet come close to Missouri's running attack. Last Saturday, Missouri gained 487 yards from scrimmage against Kansas State. So potent was the running of Steuber, aided by Jimmie Darr and Freddie Bouldin, that the Missouri quarterbacks elected to pass only seven times, just enough to keep Kansas State guessing. Steuber scored four times in the ft.
