...bombing women, children and oldsters, Russia said it was wrong to deprive them of food, fuel, clothing. Russia therefore "declares that it does not agree" to the British contraband list and rules, does not recognize the control port inspection and seizure system, especially since Russian ships and cargoes are State property.

Since then the Boilermakers - despite their famed runnings backs, Lou Brock and Jack Brown (rated second to Michigan's Harmon and Kromer)- have been defeated by Santa Clara and tied by Minnesota.

Considered only fair-to-middling at the start of the season, the Buckeyes sprang the surprise of the Big Ten when they conquered touted North western three weeks ago and followed it by beating Minnesota.

Last fortnight, after the Wildcats lost their first two games (to Oklahoma and Ohio State), an editorial in the student newssheet, Daily Northwestern, charged that the linemen were refusing to block for their ballyhooed star, Sophomore Bill De Correvont. Angered, the Wildcats promptly beat Wisconsin 13-to-7, and last week swamped Illinois 13-to-0, even though De Correvont failed to get going...
