Past Football Season One of Greatest in History of Gridiron Sport in Midwest __ _ ——————————-- ■ Chicago-Illini Contest Stands Out as Feature I'psets Mark Performances of Big Ten Elevens—Gophers’ Showing Against Zuppkc Machine Noteworthy. Hr ANHocIntnl Pw*. mCAGO,' Nov. 30.— t'lieer leaders have hung up their white flair nels until next fall, the last cheer lias died away in tlie mid, empty concrete stadiums, . the colorful crowd lias thinned out and have gone to the firesides to discuss the most nerve rucking football .season the midwest lias known in years. Tlie 1924 grid icon season i nthe western confer ence, which shattered all atendance records, lias been over for a week, hut it will be a long time before it is forgotten. The season, which closed with Chicago ns champions and Illi nois, the post-season favorite, in a tie with Iowa for second place, present ed two outstanding games that re sulted in tlie upsetting of Illinois, be sides notable exploits of individual stars. Perhaps the outstanding game of the season was Chicago’s 21 to 21 tie with Illinois, when the "fighting Mi ni” with their famous "Red" Grange, entered the game as almost certain winners. Ranking next In importance to the Ohlcago-Illinols game was the Illi nois upset and the stopping of Grange, theretofore unstoppable, by Minesota the following Saturday. Clarence Schutte, the Minnesota plunging halfback, played the Grange role for his team In this sensation ally fought battle, overwhelming Illi nois, to the surprise of everyone, by a 20 to 7 score. It was Minesota's final chance to win a conference vic tory for the season. Illinois will remember the battle with Michingan when Grange brought Die gridiron world to its feet by sprinting 95 yards for a touchdown after lie received the opening kick off and then adding two more touch downs so quickly that the spectators were left dumbfounded. Admirers of Amos Alonzo Stagg, whose Maroons captured the 1924 honors of the ltig Ten, will long cherish memories of the defensive game which Chicago put up against "Wisconsin when the Badgers threat ened to cross Hie Maroon goal line in the final game of the season and de prive Stagg’s warriors of the title. They also will remember how the di minutive Bob Hurley saved the Northwestern game by booting a field goal in tlie last couple of miutes to play, which gave Chicago a 3 to 0 vic tory. They will also recall how he kicked a field goal which enabled the Maroons to tie Ohio. Mielih’.an is in a position In boast ni staging a strong eomebark after M disastrous setback at (he hands of Illinois. Tlie Wolverine* won tour successive games after tlie slaughter at Champaign, three of which found their opponents unable to score. Then, in the final game, the Wolver ines were upset by Iowa to the tunc of 9 to 2, giving Bert Ingwersen, Iowa’s 25-year-old coach, a tie for second place. Wisconsin suffered its most, disas trous season In years, its bet being a tie with Minnesota, followed by avow of defeats until they fought the cham pion Chicago team to a scoreless tie on the last day of the season. Ohio was likewise handicapped by Injuries and lack of sterling material. Northwestern fans regard their team as one of the best in years. Their first conference victory in more than two years and close bat tles with Chicago ami Notre Uaine embellish their record. Ralph Bak er's toe figured largely in their scor ing. Northwestern stopped the "four horsemen” of Notre Uaine twice with in the 15-yard line on the last day of Hie Big Ten season, hut the famous four finally put over two touchdowns for their sixth straight victory of the Reason. Notre Dame was the only major eleven in the country not de feated or tied this year, with the Scalps of Princeton, Army, Georgia Tech and Nebraska among those on tlie saddle horns of the "four horse men." Indiana and Purdue hud fewer con ference games than usual tills year, lint each had one conferern-e victory when they met, Purdue dedicating its new stadium with a clear-cut vie lory. Missouri, by defeating their an cient rivals, the Kansas .luyhawkers, 14 to 0. on Thanksgiving day, cap tured the championship of the Mis souri Valley conference, f.vitlv Ne braska finishing second and Drake . Hill'd. Tlie Missouri Tigers went Hirougli the season with only one do feat, losing to Nebraska early In the season. Baylor university was Hto wlnnei of the Southwestern conference chum pionshlp, nosing out Southern Meth odist university. Neither leant was defeated In competition, hut. the Southern Methodists played four ties, while Baylor had only one tin battle.

Bradley. * Chamberlain, Weller Draw Berths on All-Star Pro Football Teams A Wealth or star material cavort ed around the professional foot ball field this year at handsome salary figures, but there again was an absence of high-class centers. Kvery team had three or four star Kickers and tile player who couldn't drop or placekick was more of an exception than the rule and kicking stars who dazzled fans in other seasons found themselves eclipsed. Tile predomin ance of goals from the field in the professional game was in marked con trast to its absence from collegiate play this season. In making up an all-star aggrega tion of pro players no attempt lias been made to judge the performers purely on their individual excellence but solely on their ability to fit in on a team that might he considered the best that eould lie gathered together in the national professional league. The game today requires both fast and heavy men, players in the baek fkdd capable of triple or even quad ruple threat of unusual stamina: line men rangy and rugged with strength amt agility—all quirk wilted enough, to adapt themselves to radical shifts in play both on offensive and ttie de fensive. There are brilliant individ ual performers who are lamentably weak in thus adapting themselves. They must Ik- thrown out of consider ation.

"ft.—Spectators watching athletic contests from seats in modern stadiums need have no ap prehensions that the structures will collapse when the crowd, in its eager ness to watch some close play, rises suddenly to its feet, or to “rattle" an opposing pitcher engaged in con certed stamping. Tests just made by the bureau of standards have dis closed. it was announced today, that the concrete, steel reinforced stands have a textual strength «f 4.000 pounds to the square in« h. and since the burden imposed by rapacity crowds, xvliile quietly seated, is only 1,000 pounds per square Snell, what may be considered a safe margin of resistance is left to take tare of tlie emotional moments, 1 ndcr the worst conditions occur ring during the course of a game, the additional strain caused by the move ment of tile crowd wa» shown to in crease sometimes about 300 pounds per square inch. The greatest strain from the view of safety, however, arises when the crowd stamps. When such demonstrations happen to strike “the natural vibration iieriod of the structure,” the additional stress lias been found to run as high as 150 per cent.

Three Elevens Claim Eastern Grid Honors Yale, Penn, Dartmouth Finish Season Undefeated—^ il lianis. Army Possess Un di'jnited Laurels. Ansoelated I're*t», KVV YORK, Not. Sr —Three elevens stand nut with strong claims for eastern football honors in the I Pit season. Yale, whose mighty ma chine a year ago shared the top with < irnell, finished her second successive sea son without defeat by again conquering , Harvard and Prince ton for the "Big Three" crown, but i. tv is » . ,e forced to di\ ide the • ear,on's spoil, with Pennsylvania and Dartmouth. None of this trio was beaten. hot all were tied in a campaign which de veloped a continuous succession of f< rm upsets. Pensylvanla and Hart mouth. with nine and seven »ietories & apiece, were lied pine each, while Vale, held to eicn terms by Hart mouth, also was tied by Army as an offset to six victories. All three contenders finished their schedules impressively, Pennsylvania and Dartmouth byi downing Cornell, while Yjj|e trounced both Princeton and Harvard. Dartmouth and Yale displayed brilliant offensive*, while Pennsplvania's forte was a remark able defense, hut the merits of all three rivals offer little basis for rank ing them other than in a triple tie. The only iiossessors of undisputed Laurels in the east were Williams, which conquered Amherst and Wes leyan for the "Janie Three" title, and Army, which won the service cham pionship yesterday when Captain Garbisch booted four field goals to niake up the Cadet margin of II to 0 over Navy. Among earlier contenders, Rutgers loomed as a iiowerful entry until de feated unexiiectedly by Bucknell. wthich in turn was the victim of an ^ upset at the hands of little Dickin son. I-ehlgh was unbeaten until her final game uas lost to Joiayette. Ashland Uritl Kleven ♦ -loses Season l ndefeated Ashland. Neb.. .Nov.
