 Strong Team Saturday

 for prominence against an unusually strong team. Navy, with victories over Davis Elkins and Drake, has showed enough to be chased as one of the strongest teams in the east Sloane at end and Lloyd in the back1eld have been tagged as all-
 American possibilities of their fine play. Rockne's team has made a good start with victories over Coe College and Detroit,
