Syracuse in New York, PENNSYLVANIA

Philadelphia, and Brown against Col
gate at Providence.
Next Saturday the unbeaten Navy
eleven will have, however, a chance
for national distinction by defeating
the Army more deciSively than did

on this day Notre Dame will en-
counter real test against Carnegie

with something to spare. and so do

negotiate as difficult hurdle as any
eleven has faced this season.

Navy from post season considerat tion

ALABAMA TEAM APT
TO PLAY STANFORD

TUSCALOOSA Ala, November "a.
Formal invitation from Stanford
University to the University of Ala
bama to a post season foot ball game
at California; 8 tournament of roses in
Pasadena on New Year day has been
received by DR.. George H. Denny, Ala
bama president.
DIR. Denny let it be known that
the university favors acceptance Of
the bid, provided the Southern Con-
ference approves. Since many con-
ference members already have signi-
fed their desire that Alabama make
the trip. which would he the second
in as many years, il is regarded here
as likely that the game will be ar
ranged.
A suspension OF the Southern Con-
ference rule prohibiting teams from
participating in post-season games is
necessary to acceptance.
