The Double rntcrsecional
We have here the two-ply nterseczionai test, with both West and South
tossed in against the cast.

And while this is taking place.. Michigan will leave Ann Arbor for
Nashville, where the Wolverines dedicate tho big Vanderbilt stadium. now,
the finest athletic structure in tn South.
All n all, Saturday will be the largest family day of the football year.

Grtdiron Etchings
No s-svracuso
Syracuse for The last two years has had a habit Of buckIng up in some
game without presenting any warning.
Last fall she collapsed against rnsburs and was beaten a to o when
the odds looked to be her way.
But Chick" Meehan, on of the youngest OF the college coaches Is look
ing for no such crash this fall.
His prospects are bright for a strong team. and hs will need a strong
team with the schedule he faces, which for the remainder OF the way in
cudes Brown, Pftsburs, Penn State. Nebraska. McGm and Colgate.
Meehan is banking heavily upon his baCkncd array where he has An
iderson, Kellogg, Trout, Mcbride. Zimmerman, Bowman. Simmons and Fru-
sonnc, enough material for W good backfolds.
He believes he has n star quarterback in Simmons who is fast, brainy
and strong.
Syracuse should have y of 1he leading stars Of the ras, IN Anderson
a back who a kick n III Hell looks to he IN exceptional artist in every
way. The main idea ia to get the right line. The material at hand Is
strong and heavy, but n bit green. although Captain Culver, at center. will
have a steadyihg influence over his forward flock. All IN nil, Syracuse should
have a fine ear in spit of decidedly strong opposition. Her game with Penn
State at the Polo Grounds will be n Of the feature engagements.
Jus at present Syracuse las her gaze focused an the Tftsburg game
lat Syracuse o. October 81. Recalling tn terrific laCing received at Tuusburg
last fall, n can't very well blame Syracuse for being wrought up wei this
contest And Pttsburs is never a team to take in any light hearted way.
Syracuse is a fine football center will a capacity crowd waiting fr
every big game. Every Granny in the Archbod stadium will he filed when
Glen Warmers ear arrives and there will be n bald spots for Brown
Nebraska, McGfl and Colgate.
One main trouble in diagnosing football strength is the long run Of in
Ijures accidents that may assal a can at almost n hour. Few Of
these injuries reach serious proportions, hut they are Otter enough to break
up a team nd sal its strength for a big game. It is for this reason that
one has a coy feeling when it comes to prophecy for the absence Of to o
three stars can rip the soul out OF any lineup.
