...elevens were dropped from the select group of unbeaten teams as a result of Saturday's games. Those to fall from their lofty perches near the top rungs of the football ladder were Cornell, Brown, Georgetown and Washington and Jefferson. The University and Princeton having avoided the abyss of defeat by playing a tie game, are two among the seven who can still display clean slates. The others are Penn State, Pittsburg, Wesleyan, Stevens Tech and Boston College...
...last hopes of Chicago and Michigan of winning the "Big Ten" Conference championship vanished Saturday. Ohio defeated Michigan by 14 to 7, block-minutes of play, while Illinois won a stubborn battle from Chicago by 3 to 0.

The Illini are favorites over the Badgers, but Ohio is picked to win the final game and the championship for a second year...

The next three games, however, will give the Blue and White a still better chance to prove its power. Next Saturday they meet the giant Nebraska "Cornhuskers," who are considered...
...Lourie, who came to Cambridge last Saturday to watch team "B" defeat the Virginians, was again at the helm and Wittmer appeared at full for the first time in two weeks. It was announced that the latter had entirely recovered from his early season injury and would be back in the game Saturday. Scheerer and McManman, the former having suffered a recent bereavement, and the latter having spent the day in New York in order to see the dentist as a result of injuries received last Saturday, were not in uniform, but both are expected to report tomorrow.
