IT. officials Saturday expressed ex-pressed no definite stand on thf proposal to al'.indon regular Big Seven athletic schedules for the duration, which has been endorsed by nine Colorado colleges and will come up for the approval of Big Seven officials in the December Decem-ber meeting. Dr. I A. Christensen, B. Y. U. faculty representative to the Big "even council commented: "I do not know how this will affect K. Y. U. Nothing definite has been rU-( ided, but we will probably play We.1 1' in Division schools if the proposal is adopted. We are waiting wait-ing until the December meeting before making any definite plans." President Franklin S. Harris said, "V have reached no decision. de-cision. The matter has been dis-c dis-c uss' d in faculty meeting and we are prepared to do Whatever the coiifen-ncc decides." President Harris was not sur P'--'i to hear the proposal." He stated that he had met with Fed- eral Transiortution Coordinator Joseph Eastman, last August and Eastman said that the colleges might have to give up conference competitions for the duration. This will probably become general thioughout the country as soon as gas rationing becomes general. "Brigham Young university will do all in its power to foster the war effort," said President Har ris, 'and you can rest assured that if we am forced to give up competitive athletics for the duration, dur-ation, or curtail them, we will expand ex-pand our intra-mural program so greatly that it will reach every student in the school. There will be more activity than ever before, and B. Y. U. will go all out in an effort to keep the students who are still in sc'hool in the top physical physi-cal condition." cision over Vic Dellicurti of New York. Robinson, Harlem's uncrowned king of the welters, who is unbeaten un-beaten in 38 professional and 89 amateur brawls for a total of 127 straight victories, gave squat, dark-haired Dellicurti a bloody boxing lessor, and when he had him ready for the kayo in the 10th, surprisingly refrained from knocking him out. This 10th round gesture of mercy from Harlem's ebony egocentric ego-centric was so unexpected that the 10,349 fans, who were ready to boo him out of the ring because of his failure to kayo blood-smeared blood-smeared Dellicurti. instead gave him an ovation when he climbed down from Mike Jacob's platform. It was a screwball 10th round. Slerder, streamlined Robinson who had belted out 27 of his previous 37 professional opponents, never threw a solid punch at vanquished vanquish-ed Vic in the 10th. He went through a pantomime of punch a mimicry of maul in which he seemed to be playing "patty-cake" "patty-cake" to the body of his bleeding opponent.

Payson FRIDAY'S RESULTS: Pleasant Grove 14, Payson 6. Lincoln 7, Provo 0. Springville 20, Spanish Fork 6. By DeMAR TEUSCHER The powerful Lincoln Tigers, displaying a smooth, relentless running attack that couldn't be stopped, completely overwhelmed a highly favored Provo Bulldog eleven, 7-0, to turn in the first Lincoln victory over. Provo since football was inaugurated at Lincoln Lin-coln 12 vears ago. For Coach Don "Sanky" Dixon it was a great win, and the well-balanced well-balanced aggregation that, he put on the field was a credit to any coach. For Provo Coach Max Warner it was a tough break. Warner was forced to leave several sever-al men home because of ineligibility. ineligibil-ity. Lincoln started its running attack at-tack right at the start of the game, and just before the first quarter ended they threw it into high gear. They rolled up five successive first downs and were pushing deep into Provo territory at the end of the first period. With the ball in the Provo 25, Ed. Reesha swept wide around end and skirted his way to the 12. Nimer smashed off tackle to the five, Sumsion went to the two, and Sumsion smashed over on the next play for the touchdown. Boyd Worthen booted a perfect placement for the conversion. Lincoln started another drive just a few minutes later which was stopped on the Provo four-yard four-yard line by the half-time gun. Reesha was tossed out of bounds at that point and just btore the Lincoln team came out of the huddle the half time gun went off. In the last quarter Provo started start-ed two touchdown drives with a sparkling passing attack, but both were foiled. One drive caused two interesting altercations between the players and officials. After completing two passes, Gifford whipped another to Taylor on the Lincoln 40. The pass fell incomplete, incom-plete, but interference was ruled on the play. After the officials decided on the play, on one seemed to know what the penalty was. Both coaches, all three officials, the team captains, and some of the fans became embroiled in the. squabble, until one official produced pro-duced a rule book and gave the ball to Provo at the point where the foul was committed. Provo completed another pass and then Garth Ford lateraled to Bob Gifford. Gifford caught the ball and was immediately tackled by Jack Rohbock. As Gifford hit the ground the ball squirted from his hand and was recovered by Nimer of Lincoln. The officials ruled it was Lincoln's ball, thereby there-by ending the Provo drive, and causing a small riot among the Provo cheering section. The Bulldogs again threatened in the final moments of play when Ford connected a pass to Clark on the Tiger 16, but Gifford was stopped for a fifteen yard loss on the next play and Lincoln took over the ball on downs. Provo tried desperately again after forcing forc-ing Lincoln to punt, but the stocky Nimer who was a thorn in the Bulldogs' hide all afternoon, intercepted in-tercepted a Provo pass, ending the game as far as Provo was concerned. For three quarters the Tigers completely dominated the game. They completely bottled up the Green Wave ground attack, and until the Provoans took to the air in the final canto, held them without with-out a first down. Lincoln rolled up 14 first downs by rushing to Provo's one, while Provo picked up four by passes to none for the Tigers. Lincoln didn't throw one pass all afternoon, ifut with the offense functioning as it did. passes were not needed. Reesha and Nimer were outstanding out-standing in the Tiger backfield, while Davis and Rohbock on the line stopped most of the lays. For Provo Gifford and Headman were outstanding.

Hunters were also warned that it is unlawful to hunt big gamp animals with a shotgun of any gauge, any kind of a revolver, pistol, or rifles smaller than a .25-.3S caliber. A total of 920 permits were sold to resident hunters through a drawing, but the $50 non-resident permits are on open sale for all districts except Nebo. Weather conditions have caused caus-ed the elks to bunch together and this may cause hunters to get their limit easier. This report came from Allan C. Randle, director di-rector of the department and senior conservationist in charge of big game. Warden camps and checking stations set up for the hunt were listed as follows: Sa't Lake district Warden's camp, city farm, Mountain Dell; registration station, fish and game department, state capitol.

Marty announced today. Aftr more than three years of Hurdling Pre-Flight Course ; --Ar .-x- Time, 7-0 BY HARRY GRAYSON NEA Service Sports Editor NEW YORK, Nov. 7 In 1941 Theodore S. Williams became the first American league hitter in 18 years to bat .400 or better. Harry Heilmann was the last to perform the feat in 1923. Ted Williams of the Red Sox was the first major league swatter swat-ter to manufacture a .400 average in 11 years.-Bill Terry did it for the Giants in 1930. . . - Making Williams' stunt all the more remarkable was his not being favored by the old sacrifice" fly rule. . But because Joe DiMagglo hit safely in 66 consecutive games, the best Williams got In the balloting bal-loting for the most valuable player play-er in the junior circuit was second sec-ond place. This year, Williams became the first player since the late. Lou Gehrig to win the triple crown the batting, runs-batted-in and home run championships. Gehrig did it in 1934. So the outfielder's reward in the most valuable player voting is another second, this time to Joe Gordon of the Yankees. Offhand, we would say young Ted Williams has a perfect right to stand right up in class and ask: "Just what does'a bloke have to do?" I suppose the answer is: Be a pennant-winner. Major league owners jawing at this time about next season's player play-er limit comes under wasted words. One school, wants the present limit of 25 raised to 27. Another would limit active players to 20. The one argument is to have replacements for players lost to the armed forces. The other side preaches economy, of course. What baseball magnates should concentrate on between now and next spring is how they are going to keep the professional business going. IOWA UPSETS BADGERS, 6-0 BY TOMMY DEVINE United Press Staff Correspondent TOW A PITY To Nnv 7 ltp j A new band of University of Iowa "iron men" carried the Hawkeyes back into the thick of the Big Ten championship fight today when they registered a 6 to 0 triumph over previously undefeated un-defeated Wisconsin, before a crowd of 32,700. The victory gave Iowa a record of three triumphs and one defeat in conference play and provided them a chance for their first Big Ten crown since 1922. Iowa entered the game against Wisconsin, winner of seven straight contests, as a five-to-one underdog, but the Hawkeyes of Dr. Eddie Anderson refused to believe the forecasts and came through with a dogged battle that netted them their greatest victory since 1939 when Nile Kinnick led anoher set of "sixty minute men" to a 7 to 6 triumph over a Notre Dame team that was the overwhelming over-whelming favorite. continuous Sunday racing, the track recently closed pending settlement set-tlement of contract negotiations with a Mexican labor union. 9 (i -v ' V"" ; ' " 'x3 Vikes Upset Lions 14-6; Dons Beaten By Red Devils 20-6 A fighting band of Pleasant Grove Vikings roared back in the third period Friday to come from behind and tip the Payson Lions 14-6 for its first 1942 victory in region three football competition. The alert Payson line fell on a Viking fumble deep in Grover territory ter-ritory with Staheli, Lion tackle bringing up the ball, and the Lions moved into scoring position immediately. The Viking line held and the Grovers kicked out, but Payson would not be denied. With Ted Heath packing the leather, the Lions shoved deep into the Pleasant Grove back yard where Allan Davis pulled a quarterback sneak to score. The attempted con version was smothered. The Vikings, sluggish all Airing Air-ing the first half, came back strongly in the third period, and with Lloyd Walker staging a one man offensive show, tnfy marched march-ed 50 yards down the field to score. A pass, Walker to Lyn At-wood, At-wood, was good for the conversion. The aroused Vikings could not be denied another third period score. They took the ball on downs on the Payson 35, then Garth Gil-man Gil-man slid off tackle and raced the entire distance to the goal. He bucked for the extra point. The Lions tried desperately to score in the last period, but the alert Vikings thwarted every at tempt made. Pleasant Grove toss ed away some good scoring chances by eight fumbles, six ofl which were recovered by Payson Payson fumbled four times with the Vikings recovering two of them.

Springvile's Red Devils crushed a game but outclassed Spanish Fork club to win 20-6 before a wildly cheering crowd of home fans. Led by Glen Clark, battering fullback, and slippery Paul Eg-gertson, Eg-gertson, the Red Devils slipped through the Spanish Fork line with apparent ease any time they wished. The Red Devils scored early in the first quareer when Clark bucked the ball over to climax a 30-yard drive. For the first few minutes of the quarter, the lighter Dons held the Springville machine, but when they lost the ball on their own thirty, they couldn't hold the Springville in check any longer. Clark converted. con-verted. After the kickoff. the Dons were forced to punt, and Springville Spring-ville marched right down the field to the Dons seven. A fifteen yard penalty at this point set the drive back and Milner, Don halfback, momentarily stopped the march when he intercepted a Springville pass. The Dons were forced to punt however, and a bad kick rolled out of bounds on the ten yard line with 4 seconds to go. Three passes fell incomplete, but with only a second or two remaining, remain-ing, Eggertson connected to Clif-to Clif-to Anderson in the end zone for onv.ion wns hlooUprt 1 l. 1 - rrl.

In the opening moments of the last quarter, with the Forkers starting a march of their own. Glen Clark pulled down an enemy aerial and sprinted through the entire Spanish Fork team for the final Red Devil score. He added the extra point on a line buck. Using a beautiful lateral play, a penalty for fifteen yards, and another penalty for five yards, the Dons came right back to score. The last penalty put the ball on the Springville 23, where Neil-son, Neil-son, Don quarterback, took the ball around end and then lateraled to Melvin Gardner, who threaded his way through the Springville secondary for the score.
