BETTER PASSING
College Teams Average 13.8
Points Per Game, Sta
tistical Bureau Reveals.
By Gail Fowlr
Seattle. Nov. 11. JPh-After
painstaking pursuit through
a maze of digits and decimals,
the American Football Statisti
cal bureau disclosed today that:
1 Intercollegiate football
among the "majors" is showing
more points scored per team
per game than during the last
decade.
2 The scoring increase re
sults from an Increased forward
pass completion percentage rath
er than from the minute in
crease in total offensive yard
age, most of which is attrib
utable to rushing rather than
passing.
The bureau based its conclu
sions on perusal of figures on
1.170 games involving major
teams up to November 1.
13.3 Last Year
It found that the average
team per game is scoring 13.8
points, compared to 13.3 for last
year, which in itself was a high
mark for a decade. Thus, for
every 100 games played. 100
more points have been scored
than was the case in 1940. Or
put it this way both teams
combined in the average 1941
game will compile 27.6 points,
compared to 26.6 last year.
Total offense gains rushing
and passing only shows about
a yard increase per team, most
of it found in the rushing col
umn. The composite yardstick
discloses that fewer passes are
being thrown and fewer yards
are being gained in the air. .
But the forward pass com
pletion percentage has climbed
to a modern high of .387, and
Ihis leads the bureau to its belief
that the "steady and constant
perfection of the use of the
forward pass is responsible for
the scoring increase."
The pass completion percent
age has increased each year
since the bureau started keeping
records in 1937, when the figure
was .363. Last year it was .386.

Gophers Voted Number One
Grid Team; Stanford Sixth
BY BILL BONI
New York, Nov. 11. P) Fordham's defeat by Pittsburgh
and the 7-7 tie to which Texas was held by Baylor had their
aftermaths today in the fifth of the weekly football ranking
polls conducted by the Associated Press.
The Rams first loss of the
season dropped them right out
of the first ten: Texas, though
still undefeated, was shoved
down to second place, and a full
tide of favor swept the Golden
Gophers of Minnesota back into
the No. 1 position which was
awarded them at the beginning
of the campaign.
Ballots were received this
week from 122 football experts
all over the country, and 99 of
them made Minnesota their first
choice. Thus the Gophers, win
ners of 15 straight games, were
returned to the spot they held
for the first two weeks of the
season and shared with Texas
two weeksi ago. With improving
but three-tjmes beaten Iowa and
high-scoring but four-times-beat
en Wisconsin left on the sched
ule, Minnesota now appears a
good bet to finish its second
straight season without defeat
and also repeat as No. 1 team
in the final national ranking.
Besides Minnesota, only three
other major elevens are unde
feated and untied, and all of
them made the first ten. Duke,
with 11 first-place votes and 844
points, got third place; fourth
went to Texas A. and M., with
six and 794, and Duqucsne,
which ends its season Saturday
against undefeated, once-tied
Mississippi State, broke into the
select group for the first time
at tenth place.

TO VIEW ARTICLES
ON DEFENSE LIST
Six delegates will go from
Jackson county to Portland to
inspect the government's exhibit
of articles and parts that can be
manufactured by small factories
in the national defense program.
This course was voted at a
meeting of machine, sheet metal
and woodworking shops at the
Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce last night. Two dele
gates from each of the three
man ufacturing classifications
will make the trip to Portland
where a special train housing
the government's exhibit will
be on display November 24.
Government engineers are to be
present to explain the procedure
to be followed in procuring con
tracts to turn out the articles
and parts shown in the exhibit,
the meeting last night was told.
The delegates are to be named
in a few days.
Glenn L. Jackson, president
of the chamber of commerce,
told of the necessity of procur
ing some of the small govern
ment contracts if employment
for skilled workers is to be pro
vided in Jackson county and if
all artisans are not to be drained
from here to other parts of the
west coast where defense manu
facturing jobs are a magnet. Mr.
Jackson stressed the economic
value of defense contracts to the
entire county and counseled that
if some effort is not made to
get government defense orders
this county will be left high and
dry so far as any manufacturing
and the retention of skilled wor
kers arc concerned.
Diamond Flynn, chairman of
the chamber's industrial com
mittee, who presided, pointed
out that government officials
have declared their intention of
enlisting every single shop and
factory that can produce any
thing needed In defense. He as
serted that shops in Jackson
county are equipped to handle
thousands of dollars worth of
contracts in the manufacture of
small articles and parts and de
clared there was a good chance
to obtain such contracts If a
serious effort la made to get
them.
