7 New York, Nov. 2 (AP)—Notre Dame continues to rcill
up the score in the Associated Press football poll with €3
per cent of the first-place votes in the fifth weekly ratings
-New faces come and go in the top 10 but nobody is cion
to the' Fighting Irish who were ranked first by 13 of tq
161 sports writers and sportscast-f
era participating. 7
It’s getting monotonous. Notre
Dame in the No. 1 spot and the
other members of the “Big* Four”
rushing along behind them. The
rest, a^e stragglers in the voting.
Amy Second
Army is second, Oklahoma third
and California fouth, just like
last week. The “Big Four” corner
ed all but three of the first-place
ballots. Oklahoma drew ill, Army
10 and California three. The oth
ers went to tenth-place Michigan
State (2) and to seventh-place Cor
nell (1). ,

nosedived out of the top 10 after
their respective ^defeats by Purdue
and Pittsburgh; Southern Meth

places. : A, 7 ; ‘ T - X
None of the “Big Four” was
hard pressed last Saturday. Notre

Army ran over'Virginia Military,
40 to 14; Oklahoma walloped Iowa
State 34 to 7, and California
turned back U. C. L. A.’s challenge,
35 to 21.
On the point basis, with 10 for
first, nine for second and so on,
the Irish piled up 1569 to outdis
tance the pack. The Cadet’s sec
ond-place margin was sliced but
they still hold the edge over Okla

Michigan, the only other t<>am
except Notre' Dame to lead Jthe
poll this season, gained support
by topping Illinois, 13 to (). As k
refuR the Wolverines advanced a
peg from sixth to fifth.
Baylof’s unbeaten Bears jumped
from tenth to Slxtn on the strength
of a 40*tn**J4 ramble against Texas
Christian. Cornell moved up one
step, to seventh on Sts 64-to-0 tout
of Columbia, but Rice, surprising
ly, fell from No. 5 to No. 8 de
spite a 28-to-0 win over Texas
Tech.
^Southern Methodist, a 7-to-6
winner over 1 Texas on D)qak
Walker’s placement, took over
ninth -position and Michigan State,

place.

Most SWC Grid
Camps Listing
Many Injuries
By Associated Preaa
There’s an insured feeling
at most Southwe|i Confer
ence football camps.
; Every coach can point to
one or more key men on the
sidelines, several expect them to
be there in Saturday's games.
Baylor, the only undefeated, un
tied team in conference, has three
ailing.
Center Eugene Hubbner is ex
pected to be okeh for the important
Toxas game this week.
John Curtis, defensive halfback,
and sophomore Quarterback Larry
Isbell are the others.
Southern Methodist Coach Matty
Bell said Bobby Vann, one of his
regular tackles, may be out for
the rest of the season.
Vann tore two cartilages in his
knee and broke his wrist.
Bell said Bobby Collier, his oth
er regular tackle, had an injured
shoulder, but should be able to play
against Texas A&M this week.
Texas listed five injuries, two
serious enough to be hospitalized.
These are backs Billy Pyle and
Byron Townsend. Pyle has a twist
ed knee that may keep him on
the bench the rest of the season.
Townsend has a bruised hip.
First string ends Paul Williams
and Ray Stone and Tackle Jim
Lunsford are nursing hurts.
Rice hopes to have all of its
cripples back this week. Halfback
Sonny Wyatt and Guard S. J.
Roberts are “maybe” cases. Gerald
Weatherly, the big center, should
be recovered from an ankle injury.
The picture was a little brighter
at Texas A&M, where the Aggies
found John Christensen and, Char
ley McDonald may be able to play
this week. They’re the team’s top
safety men.
Arkansas got End Frank Fischel
buck in actio^ yesterday, but Coach
John Barnhill said his, ace fullback,
Leon (Muscles) Campbell woh’t
play against Rice and may not play
any more this year. Campbell has
a bad knee.
L. R. (Dutch) Meyer, Texas
Christian Couch, explained his
team's 40-14 loss to Baylor as a
had day. He told u quarterback
club meeting:
‘'It’s a short story. We just took
a bad heating. K7verything we did
