U ' :1 p f Sports Here and There Hy AI Ablett This is the pay-of- f week in al-most every section of the coun-try. In the East: Cornell should have easy sailing against Yale. The big Red team is comparable to teams of the last generation. They have stars to bo sure: MeCul-loug- h, Langsberg in the back-fiel- d, Drahos, West and Blasko in the line, and in Jenkins and Schmuck they have a pair of ends that can turn plays in and catch passes from any angle- - But from all accounts it is the sureness and certainty of action that makes them a great team-Yal-hasn't much this year, so it looks like they will get a lesson Saturday. In the midwest: Minnesota vs. Michigan hold the spotlight. This game brings together two of the greatest teams in the country. Big, hard-chargin- g lines, ends that have size and speed. Back-fiel- ds that know their way on the ground and in the air. Minnesota, I think, has done the best job of any team in the country. But of course they haven't been called upon to meet anything like Harmon and company. Coach Bierman has a great team and he says that they haven't reached their peak as yet. The Gophers have a typical Minnesota line, big and rugged. In Johnson they have one of the greatest of the ends. Their backfield is probably the fast-est unit Minnesota has ever had. This boy Franck can real-ly pack that mail and Smith isn't far behind. Sweiger is a Gopher fullback, by that I mean a big, hard-chargin- g line cracker and a whizs at backing up the line on defense. Michigan must have a good line, since they stopped Regan of Penn cold, and he is ranked as the best running back in the east. Their backfield, well, there is Harmon, need anymore be said? I like Minnesota because too much depends on one man with Michigan. But regardless of who wins, wouldn't you like to see it? Southwest: The Texas Ag-gies meet their sternest test Saturday when they play S.M-- U. The Aggies are a great team and this is their second season. So far, anyway, without a loss. In they are meeting a team that has only a tie to mar their record. The winner of this game should be declared the winner in that section. The Aggies led by the great John Kimbrough are favorites. But if it is close the kicking of Johnson of S.M-U- may mean the difference. I like the Aggies- - In the south the game of the week is Alabama vs. Tulane. The Green Wave of Tulane has final-ly got rolling. At the start of the season they were picked as one of the great teams of the south, but they had a hard time getting into high gear. "Red" Dawson has finally found the right com-bination. West: It looks like the win-ner of the Washington-Stanfor- d game will go to the Rose bowl. Stanford has been rolling along in high with a tricky at-tack built around a great full-back, Siandlee. Washington has lost one game, that was the opener with Minnesota, and at that they gained more yard-age than the Gophers, so I think they carry too many guns for Stanford. Besides they had a week's rest. Then there're the potential on the line-up- . Rocky Mountains: The game of the week for the week for Utah fans is Denver and B.Y.U. If Kim-ball can keep the Cougars keyed up after their Aggies win they should take Denver at Provo-Th-game of the year for the Bingham fans will be held to-day at the Copperton stadium when our own Miners take on the Darts from Kaysville. Deb Young has a big team at Davis and of late they have been go- - ing great guns. I suppose they will go into the game as favor-ites, but if the Miners are on they will give them a whale of a game. The local team will go into the game with two new boys in the "line-u- p. Gene Goff will be at tackle in place of Max Seal and George Nichols will be at the blocking back in place of Stan Long- As we understand it, Long and Seal broke training. Too bad these two boys saw fit to disobey rules set down for the team. No individual is as big as the game. What is fair for the whole team must apply to each as indi-viduals. The action may handi-cap the team, as far as winning the game is concerned. However, winning is only a small part of the game, especially in school- - So this corner will be pulling for Bingham and Santy, who has the courage to uphold a principle re-gardless of his winning record-S- o long, Al DINNER DANCE TOMORROW NIGHT Walter Bulic, chairman of the Canyon junior chamber ot commerce entertainment com-mittee, has announced that the annual Jaycee dinner dance will he held at the Newhouse hotel in the Mirror room Saturday ev-ening. November 9. The dinner will be served at 7:30 p. m. in a room adjacent to the ballroom. Members desiring to attend the function are asked to contact Mr-Boh- Prices are $3.00 per couple. WEEKLY LECTURES SLATEDBY U.OFU. "Tonight on Broadway", a ser-ies of lectures on current hit plays of America, will be given each Thursday at 8:00 p. m., be-ginning November 14, at the Bingham Central school, an an-nouncement from the University of Utah news bureau states. The lecturer will be Dr. Joseph F. Smith, head of the University of Utah speech department, who will appear under the auspices of the University extension di-vision. Founded on the well-verifie- d assumption that current trends and feelings are reflected intense-ly in the current theatre, the ser-ies is designed to meet the needs of all people interested in the drama, and may be taken with or without University credit. The lectures present a vivid cross section of American thought and life during the past ten years. Time set for the weekly meet-ings at the Central school is 8 p. m. The class of 24 that heard the stage version of "Life With Father", by Clarence Day, Mon-day evening was most enthusias-tic. The public is invited to at-tend the course. ANNUAL GEMMELL ELECTIONSLATED According to W. D- Kidd, sec-- i retary. nominations for the an-- j nual Robert Campbell Gemmell Memorial club have been made and are as follows: For president, Alvin Hall and Robert Jenkins; for vice presi-dent, Kermith L. Isbell and Ein-ne- r Sutherland; for board of di-rectors, three to be chosen, Bob Hansen, Forrest I. Adams, Ray-mond Cowdell, George H. Aus-tin, Jr., M. C. Colyar, Raymond Marriott, E- V. Knudsen, Geo-rge Evankovich, George Dahl-stro- m and Lester Sumnicht. Ballots will be distributed in the near future and must be de-posited in the ballot box on the pay car November 25. Officers selected will serve during 1941. Holdover members on the board of governors are Louis Buchman, Harvey Garrity, W. D. Kidd, A. W. Watson and Alvin Hall. Bingham-Davi- s Meet Today In Region Game Because the days are becom-ing shorter. Coach Bailey J. Santistevan has arranged for today's game' with Davis to start at 2:30 p. m. instead of 3:30 as previously scheduled. The Miners go in today's game without the services of Stanley Long, halfback, and Max Seal, left tackle, these boys having been released from the squad for an infraction of training rules. Cither Benny Culbertson or George Nichols will fill the halfback post and Gene Goff will play at left tack-l- e in place of Seal. The Bingham Miners' claim on the Jordan district B champion-ship seems to be valid, but out-come of today's grid battles could make it disappear like a slight snowfall on a warm day. If the Miners defeat Davis on the local gridiron Friday they will be un-disputed B class high school warriors in this region. However, if Murray defeats Jordan or ties the Beetdiggers, and the locals lose to Davis, the Smelteritcs will be class B title holders in Jordan district-Murra-tipped over the Tooele Buffaloes last week, 12-- 7. The Davis Darts overpowered the strong Granite crew 13-- 0 at -- Kaysville last Friday. With a powerful running attack, the Darts had things all their own, way. The Miners disposed of the Grantsville game last Friday with a team that included no seniors, 20-- 0. Benny Culbertson and Jack Thurmond paced Bing-ham's drive for scores in the first, third and fourth quarters. The Comboys advanced to Bingham's 30-ya- rd line in the first period, but did not again seriously threaten. George Nich-ols and Joe Cavazos "did some neat blocking for the Miners and Jack Gleason sparkled on the line. Jordan District Team Standings W. L. T. Pet.

CRIME FURNISHES MAGAZINE STORY The story of a crime of local interest in 1912, the slaying of a Salt Lake City taxi driver, Eddie White, by Caleb A. Inlow, Cop-perfie- ld school principal, will be recounted in the True Detective magazine, a MacFadden publica-tion, in an early issue. Jack Martin of New York City, on the magazine's staff, was in Bingham Canyon Monday after-noon in search of material for the article. Mr. Martin said the story of the murder was, briefly: A Salt Lake City collector of ore speci-mens had a rare sample Mr. In-lo- w, also a collector, coveted. After trying without success to purchase the specimen, Mr. In-lo- w took a taxi one evening to the collector's residence. Leaving the taxi some distance from the home, Mr. Inlow plan-ned to steal the ore. The taxi driver, sensing something wrong, followed Inlow to the home and apprehended him. Inlow killed the taxi driver and was later captured. After a leng-thy trial Mr. Inlow was found guilty of second degree murder in the district court of Salt Lake City and was given a life sent-ence in the Utah state prison. He served from 1912 to 1924, when he was released because of ill health. He died in 1926.
