HOMECOMING DAY SET FOR NOVEMBER 2
VILLANOVA “WILDCATS” WILL ENGAGE DETROIT “TITANS” IN SECOND GAME OF UNIQUE DOUBLE-
HEADER; PHILADELPHIA CLUB HOST AT DANCE
TUHLDREHER’S “thighly reputed
“Wildcats” will meéét; the cagy De-
troit “Titan§,” ubdér the tutelage
of “Gus” Dorais, Notre Dame, 714,
on the Villanova gridiron Saturday, No-
vember 2nd (HOMECOMING DAY) at
2P.M.. The returning Alumni will wit-
ness the second tilt of a unique “double-
header” with Detroit—the first being
played at Detroit the previous Saturday.
VILLANOVA UNDEFEATED
There is no doubt as to the strength
and versatility of the 1935 football ag-
gregation at Villanova and its superi-
ority over representative Wildcat teams
of recent years. Harry Stuhldreher un-
doubtedly has.the best team in his en-
tire coaching career. This fact was
proven when the Main Liners trampled
the Bucknell “Bisons”, 25 to 0, for their
most decisive victory since the series
started back in 1900. In trouncing the
strong “Bison” eleven Harry Stuhl-
dreher’s Wildcats extended their winning
streak for the season to four straight.
The “Wildcats” entered the fray on
Saturday, October 19th, against Marty
Brill’s La Salle “Explorers” with the
highest score in the East. A poll of the
Eastern Colleges shows Villanova lead-
ing the list, goal: uncrossed, with 137
points. ~ = :
In addition to our scoring honors with
other Colleges “Nick” Kotys, Villanova’s
flashy - halfback,- still-ranks- among ~ the
Eastern stars of individual high scorers.
Patrick of Pitt receives first honors.
DETROIT STRONG OPPONENT
_To date of publication the Detroitans
have met and defeated the Central State
Teachers College, Haskell Indians, and
Oklahoma A. & M. College without hav-
ing their own goal crossed. Saturday,
October 19th, they. met the Catholic
University at Detroit—the same strong
C. U. that licked La Salle, 47 to 0, three
weeks ago. .
No matter how the scores go, win or
lose, the “Titans” will display full power
and plenty of action when they meet Vil-
lanova on both occasions. Remember last
year’s Homecoming Day with Detroit,
0 to 0?

With the Main Liners striving for an
undefeated season, the first since 1928,
and the “Titans” also trying to turn in
a clean slate, the HOMECOMING DAY
battle will be hard fought and colorful.
Regardless of whether Villanova wins or
loses the first engagement of the “double-
header” the returning members of the
Alumni will see plenty of action. So,
