turns come in from the various gridiron
centers.
The Yale. Princeton and Pitt.W. and

In their respective games, but it would
be no real startling surprise IL both
the Panthers and the Bulldogs won.
There have been so many upscts in biz
games this season that they must be
expected.
Princeton is primcd for the Els and
Bill Roper's athletes are figured to win

weak against Yale, but the Providenc,
boys have played several good games
this season and are likely to arise an,
give the Cambridge boys a tough en-
gagement.
