We~tem penetrated deep into Viator territory several times during the first half but each time an alert defense threw back the threa t before Western could get past the Irish t wenty yard stripe. Five W estern passes were ·intercepted, three of them by Quart erback Tony S acco. Bob Lenahan and John Morenc, backing up the line, brok e up numerous running plays, after Tony Zelen c!k, Babe Claeys, Bob Schumacher and George Cusack piled up the Western linemen; incidentally, the Viator linemen met the stiffest competition they have faced this year. Coach Mike Gary of Western State has a heavy ,fast charging group of forwards who would make
a tough afternoon for any college grid team. Rex F lach was a shining light on defense while Sacco's work on pass defense was noteworthy. Long Punts by Bl.azev!ch B lazevich displayed his usual wizardy of foot by getting off a number of beautiful punts. Two of wblcb definitely staved off Western advances. Moren c was playing his usual game, diagnosing plays and s mashing Western' s balltoters time and again. Lenahan too, played brilliant defensive ball and was the
vide ample opportunity for all, he plans to hold two prac tice sessions daily, one in the afternoon and the other at night. T h e prospects for a successful season appear to be very bright, as there are 8 le ttermen returning, as well as most of the members from last year's B team. The returning lettermen are: Dan Blazevich, John Burke, Babe Claeys, Bud Monahan, Red McElligott, Bill Walsb, Bob Lenahan and Frank Straub. Among those who showed enough ability on last year's B team to warrant their promotion t o the varsity are: Luke Gleason, Tony Sacco, J oe Malloy and Tony Tortorello. The season wi ll open at home with a game December 6 against J oliet Junior College, and will be followed by a journey to Kalamazoo, December 11 , to engage W es tern Stat e in a contest which can be described only as a "natura\,." The completed schedule will contain ten games with Uttle Nineteen opponents: t wo games apiece with Carbond a le, McKendree, Charleston, and Illinois Wesleyan; and one game with Illinois State Normal and Carthage. The important non-conference games already scheduled are with DePaul and Valparaiso. The schedule has not been definitely completed as yet, but as things now stand it appears that there will not be a n east ern trip this year because of complications in the schedule.
Viator \Vhips 1Vlcl(endree 19-0 Coach Lou Zarza led his Green Wave to a crushing victory over McKendree in t he Homeco ming Game on Saturday, October 30, before a goodly crowd of Alumni, friends and followers of St.. Viator's deceptive and powerful football team. Tbe 19 to 0 victory climaxed by the Homecoming Dance made the entire festive program a success. Tbe bonfire and parade Friday night and Saturday preceding the game displayed the traditional spirit of the Viator campus, while the win over McKendree assured the Green Wave of a high standing in the 1937 Little Nineteen Conference. E ntitled to St.ate Champions hip Viator laid claim to its second state championship on the basis of a 14 to 0 triumph over Carbondale, a 6 t o 6 tie with the vaunted Titans of Illinois Wesleyan, and a crushing19 to 0 conquest of McKendree. Saturday's game closed the conference campaign but dangerous opposition lurks behind every remaining date on the schedule. The conquest was effected in a thoroughly business-like manner and the out come was never in doubt except for a few minutes of the first quarter. The powerful Viator aggregation mixed superb line crashing with its aerial maneuvers and annihilated a team that was reported and rated to be one of bet strong contenders for th e Little Nineteen Championship. H.escrves Piny Last Half The Viator defense was so strong that Mc Kendree only once moved within the Viator 29 yard line. After scoring the 19th point in the third period, Coach Zarza unloosed his reserve force in the last quarter until it looked like Notre Dame sending in its shock troops . Although the scoring fear of a ll Viator toes func tioned only once during the entire game, it w as p e rfectly executed; Luke Glea son was standin g on th e McKendree 20 yard line-he fired a pass to Blazevich on the one yard line. Danny seeing that h e was cau ght in a mesh of McKendree players laterall ed to Tony (Continued on page Six )
·P assing Attack F~ils As St. Norbert Wms 12-7 Weakened by the loss of Captain Bill Walsh and Adrian Lessard, our courageous green-clad warriors went down to defeat before the onslaught of a much heavier and a more exp erienced squad from St. Norbert's college of West DePere, Wisconsin, by a 12-7 score. Tbe passing attack, fo r which the Zn.rzamen have become famous, j ust didn't seem to click. The game was really a "thriller". The Irish were very much in the battle until the last gun soun ded, and it wasn't until then that the outcome of the game was decided. F laeh Scores The Green Wave's lone tou chdown thrust carne in the first few minutes of the game. Danny Blazev!cb, ace kicker, got off a beautiful 50 yard punt which was downed 'on the Nor bert 11 yard stripe. On the next play, Ellis, Norbert halfback, fumbled, and Bob Schumacher recovered. On an end a round play, Danny Blazevich carried the ball to the Iive yard line. Then Rex Flach, Viator rigbthalf plunged over the goal line on a reverse play. Babe Claeys added the poin t and Viator led 7-0. ·
Varsity Closes Season Against Columbia U. The Green Wave, led by its famA U-Star coaching staff will climax one of its most s uccessful seasons in recent years when it journeys to the 124th Field Artillery Armory on 52nd and Cottage Grove avenue, in Chicago to meet the s trong Columbia el~ven of Dubuque, Iowa on November 20. From the opening kick-off at 8: 00 p. m., until the final gun ends the game, the fans should see plenty of good, hard football. At least that's what we'll see if previous records mean anything. Both the Zarzamen and Dubuque have lost to St. Ambrose; previous games show that the competition has been execeedingly k een, with :several 0-0 and 6-0 score::;. Viator Club sells Tick ets The Viator Club of Chicago, an organization which has always shown a keen interest In the affairs of the colle ge, is now distributing 5,000 tick e ts t o the a lumni and friends of the Chicago and Metropolitan a r ea. Besides that, each school is making an extensive effort to sell its quota of tickets, in order to insure the success of the game. Viator fans have been encouraged by the wonderful record of the team to date, and have been especially pleased by the impressive victories over Western State, Carbondale, McKendree, St. Norbert, and a tie with the highly touted Titans of Illinois Wesleyan. We note with approval, also, the fac t that everybody in Chicago is "talking about the game."

JUorenc B lockes Kick The Green Knights of St. Norbert came back to score early in the •second quarter. With the ball on their own 31 yard line, Trepanier faded back and passed to Hickey, standing on the 40 yard marker. Hickey raced the remaining 40 yards to the goal line to score unmolested. Toonen's try for placement was blocked by Johnny Morenc, and Viator still led 7-6. The Knights put over their winning marker in the latter part of the third quarter when Kinke, giant fullback, culminated a 28 yard march by going over from the 11 foot line. Toonen failed to convert, and the score was St. Norbert 12, St. Viator 7, which proved to be the final scor e. Bob Schumacher, Viator's candidate for All-Confer ence honors at the guard position, and Bob Bates, who" holds down the right end post, got up from sick beds to play in this ball game. Both boys played a great game, and certainly deserve commendation for their heoric efforts. Bob Lenahan, the hard driving, line smashing fullback, cracked the Norbert line repeatedly, and several t imes it looked as thouh he was "off to the races", but the safety man always managed to stop him. Blazev!ch Looks Good Danny Blazevicb played his usual fine game at end . Punting against the wind, be managed to get off some very long, high kicks, which were the equ a l of anything that we've seen in the Big Ten conference. The huge Norbert line managed , to keep him quite effectively blocked up on the pass plays, and he couldn't always get out there to snare them as he usually does. However, his defensive work was one of the finest exhibitions that we've seen this year. Long Sick List Besides (:aptain Walsh, who is out with that ever recurring leg injury, W e find Adrian Lessard also on the injured list. Lessard is now recuper ating from a broken arm received in the Wesleyan game. Bob Lenahan sustained a severe injury to his back in the first week of pr actiCe, and he received a relapse of this old injury wh en he was hit hard early in Saturday's game. George Cusack, another mainstay of the Viator line, is out with a leg injury, also received in the early portion of Saturday's game. Johnny Morenc turned in a magnificent performance a t center, in spite of the fact that he was handicapped by a severely sprained thumb. Starting Lineups Pos. Norbert Viator ..I. e .. .

Critique The Viatorian, De ar Editor: In response to th e recent article advocating day-s tudent attendance at college f unc tions , a s tatement of our posi ti on would not be amiss. We are sincere ly appreciative of the interest manifes ted in us and have always been desi rous of participating in col· lege ac tivi ties. Our absence from many of the meetings is not due to any lack of interest, but to the fac t that for many of us it is quite inconven ient to attend meeting s held in the evening. Another reason is the fact that annmm cements are so infr equen tly posted in Marsile Hall that very few know wh en such meetings are to take plac e. Ma y I suggest tha t such announcements be pos ted a t least one da y p reViou s t o the meetin gs.

Due to other ac tivities con!llctlng witb our Friday nlgbt meeUngs, Beta Lambda Is going to consider changing lls evenings ln orde.r to have a better attendance. Incidentally, Ule next meeting '-" to consist of a round-table discussion of Ule Biological Aspects of Mental Telepatby based on Dr. Ryan's famous experiments at Du.ke University. Dr. Kinzer, head of the Engineer ing and Physics Dep artment, has been invited
to give us
material on this subject .from a Physical s tandpolnt. Beta Lambda is looking forward to a 100 per cent at tendance. Dr. VanDeventer, our well-known moderator, has announced that w ithIn the next few weeks, we are to be ho nor ed wi t h a no table guest speaker. He requests that members w atch for an announcement of the date of Ulis oulstandlng meetin g. It w ill
