GRUDGE BATTLES
-ON THE GRIDIRON
(AiHodutcd Vrvtt Leased Wlrt)
CHICAGO, Nov. 15. Four tradi

gimln battles us Western Confer

In all four games there nil spe

the players to the limit of human

Back in 1D21, Ohio State was In
the same situation Illinois enjoys
today, almost In reach of the Big

been trtfmpled on considerably.
The Illinois the Buckeyes' hopes, 7

take n whack nt the title hopes of
Conch Zuppke's warriors. t
The "little brown Jug" which
once held water for battered ball
carriers and now holds the hopes
of both Mlchlgnn and Minnesota,
lias had no Minnesota victory
painted on Its sides since 1!U9.
The Gophers had triumph In their
hands hist fall but It Hltpped thru
their fingers when Hminy Oostor
baan scooped up a fumble and rac
ed for a touchdown, after which
Captain Henny Friedman kicked
goal for the winning point. Both
Purdue and Indiana have their
greatest teams In many years, but
Purdue seesm to, have a bit the
edge.
Northwestern, co-chnmplons with
Mlchgnin last year, has seen Its
best backfleld hopes shot down
one by one and no one capable of
filling tho vacant shoes. Iowa's
confident squad, on the upgrmle nt
Inst wilh a victory over Wiscon
sinafter ten straight defeats, will
be hard for Northwestern to stop.

LENINGRAD, Russia, Nov. 15
"The lost world," In tho Yang-tse

It Is preparing to send out an ex

Koxloff, a well-known scientist and
exnlorer. Nothing Is kuowp , to
science of the vegetation and

covers hundreds of square miles.
The scientists of western Eu

istence there of forests of the
rlchuHt varieties, with trees of
enormous dimensions, ferns as
large us, oaks and druld trees
which would provide food for hun
dreds of thousands of humans.
The animals of this unexplored
region also are strangers to zoolo
gists. Regarding his plans M. Kozloff
snys, "The sources of the Yangtse
Kinng have attracted much atten
tion for years among i scientists
everywhere, as the country has
never been explored . thoroughly.
The expedition's taak will be to
Investigate the upper tributaries
of tho river, tho source of which Is
