TROJAN, GOLDEN
BEAR tilt MAY
DEVELOP CHAMP

LOS ANGELES, Oct. % .(P)-Whether
CalifOrniais football team, emerging
from the abyss of last seasons de-
feats, will climb further towards the
heights attained by other Blue and
Gold wonder teams" or be turnbled
into virtual oblivion as far as the Pa
cific coast conference title is con-
cerned, will be told here tomorrow.
Within the Coliseum, before a
mighty throng that is expected to
reach 10000, the Golden Bears will
clash with an equally redoubtable
aggregation, that of the University of
Southern California. Defeat for either
means almost certain elimination
from the conference race.
Many consider the chances of the
Blue and Gold to vanguish the vaunted
Trojan eleven brilliant on the face of
one of the most startling comebacks
in western football history. Last year
California was the "doormat" of the
conference; this year to rise from the
depths to become perhaps the most
highly touted aggregation on the coast
Five victories and no defeats or ties
are on the Golden Bear slate.
Southern California arlso has suf-
fered no reverSes, but it's record is
marred by a tie, 13 to 13, with STAN
ford. It's powerful offensive, the main
cog of which is the battering form of
Morley Drury, quarterback, is told in
the scoring record for the season to
date. Again five teams Southern
California has amassed 162 points, for
third ranking among the nations
scorers, as compared with 81 for the
opposition.
One fear fingered in the minds of
Trojan followers in their hopes of a
repetition of the victory at Berkeley
last year. While the ends of Troy
stop the speedy, elusive end .circlers
of the northern team? This appeared
the greatest weakness of Southern
California Charlie Boren, regular
wingman, appeared certain not to
start, but should the tide of battle
turn from the Trojans, it seemed like
ly that Coach Howard Jones would
shove the crippled end into the lineup.
Both aggregations put finishing
touches to their preparations today,
the Bears shortly after their arrival
from the north moving upon the
Coliseum to accustom themselves to
the turf on which they will play to-
morrow. The Trojans, after a work
out, went into seclusion out of the city,
planning to return shortly before game
time.

IS
PICKED TO BEAT.
YALE SATURDAY

NEW YORK, Oct. % R,-What
odds there were tonight were tavor-
ing Dartmouth over Yale, Cornell
over Columbia, Indiana over Harvard
and Navy over Pennsylvania, as the
east looked forward to a series OF
close and hard fought college football
battles tomorrow.
No fewer than ten of the major
games. including these four, loomed
as "naturals" in which anything
might happen The prospect assured
capacity crowds at all the big games,
with probably 250,000 at the half
dozen headliners, 10000 Of which were
expected at New Haven.
In two of the main renewals Of
annual rivalries-the Yale-Dartmoutn
game at New Haven and the Cornell
Columbia battle at Ithaca-the team
which won last year appeared to be
the underdog in the pre-game specu-
lation.
Dartmouth was favored because Of
it's unbeaten record this year. its rout
of Harvard last week, and the power
of it's backfield aces, Lane and
Marsters, although there were many
to back Yale and its great star,
Caldwell.
!, Both beaten once, Cornell and
Columbia on paper appeared closely
matched, with no apparent reason
for this years rather diminutive edl-
ton of the big Red Team" to be
favored, except for its showing in the
early part of the losing game with
Princeton last week.
Renewing relations with the Navy
at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania had
most of it's cripples ready to return
to the lineup, but this fact did not
prevent the Middies from being made
the favoriteS.
Indiana'S selection over Harvard
was based on the reverse another
midwestern team, Purdue, inflicted on
the Crimson three weeks ago, and
on the weakness of Harvard against
Dartmouth last Saturday In another
big intersectional battle Syracuse
meets Nebraska at Lincoln, with the
outcome apparently depending on
whether the Orange will be able to
use it's captain and fllllback, Barbuti,
VINO was cut of last weeks losing
battle with Penn State because OF

ingly powerful outfit meets the NSlny

which Yale set down last week.
Besides Dartmouth, Bucknell and
New York university, Princeton also
will be seeking to maintain an ,un-
beaten record, and should win easily
from William and Mary. Washington
and Jefferson and Pittsburgh, of the
unbeaten brigade, also have drawn
unimpressive foes in. Thiel and Ale

WESTERN TEAMS
STAKE HOPES ON
SATURDAY GAME

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. % lP)-Un-
Ss defeated far western elevens, caught in
the vortex of a thrilling seasons foot
ball campaign, clash tomorrow in
games which may tumble the cham
pionship hopes of at least one great
team
University of California and the
University of Southern California, both
undefeated, but the latter tied by
Stanford, virtually staked their Pacific
coast conference futures on the OUT
come of tomorroW'S contest at Los
Angeles Experts, finding nothing to
choose between the teams as to COM
parative strength, tempered their OBJ
servations with predictions that
breaks may decide the game. A ca
pacity crowd of between $4,000 and
10000 is expected. Some 10000 per-
sons from northern California will be
in attendance.
Stanford, also possessing a odean
conference slate except for tie game,
is conceded an edge over the visiting
University Of Oregon squad, but Coach
Warner cautioned his players that a
contest is not over until the final gun
has sounded.
Washington State and oregon State,
both recovered from crushing defeats
last week, match strength at Corvallis
in the remaining conference struggle
listed for Saturday.
University. of washington, neither
defeated nor tied, and rated as the
threat of the north this year, takes on
Whitman college in an unimportant
contest, at least for the former. Coach
Bagshaw is expected to use mostly
substitutes tomorrow, as it is no secret
the Washington mentor is pointing"
toward the game with STAFFORD
week later.

defeats by Northwestern and Mich
igan may cause the Buckeyes to take
it all out on "Old Man" Stage.
Coach Wilce will send a new back
field into the game, composed OF
Fouch, quarterback; Grimm and
Kriss, halves, with Rowan, tllllback.
This quartet may be varied with
Huston playing halfDack instead OF
Grim, who may be shifted TO quarter.
Minnesota, irresistible against Iowa
week ago, will have stronger op-
position when it faces Wisconsin. The
Badgers, although defeated by Mich
igan, showed signs Of strength against
Purdue, while the Gophers with Herb

termined to keep their winning streak

Two strong grade school baseball
teams battled on even terms yester-
day at the 18th street school grounds
and when the smoke of battle had
cleared the Seventh street team was
declared victor by score of 8 to 4.
The margin of victory came in one

They scored but one run in all the
rest of the game while the 18th

Each team broke into, the score

but the 18th street team by clever
playing took the lead to / in the

big Lacquer has apparently caused
Walter French of the Philadelphia
Athletics to cut down on professional
football I note where he has signed

Swarthmore.
French gained fame in football and

French did little more than warm the
bench as a big Lacquer. In the fall
he annually switched to professional
football.
A year ago, he suffered shoulder

LOOK ALIKE TO IRISH

Knute Rockne must work on the
theory that the bigger they are, the
harder they fall, in compiling the
annual football schedule for Notre
Dame
Each year, the famous coach Of the
Fighting Irish" tackles a schedule
that would be the cause of grave
concern for the average mentor, but
not Rockne.
In the west, Notre Dame takes on
two elevens from the western confer
ence group, Minnesota and Indiana.
The result of these games will offer
an excellent chance for comparison
with the Big Ten.
Annapolis and West Point are met
in the east Rockne has already
added the Navy to his list of victims
and expects to do likewise with the
Army
Georgia Tech, which recently set
the south to talking by its defeat OF
Alabama, is also on the Notre Dame
schedule, as is Southern California.
If Notre Dame goes through
such a schedule, which includes
the cream from every section of
the country, ROckne will have
good grounds for claiming the
national title.

Loss or STAR HURTS

Brown after several years of great
success on the gridiron, appears to be
in for one of those bad years, that
come every so often in any line OF
sport.
In the first two big games Of the
year, Brown, with much the same
lineup that was the sensation of col
lege football last season, has twice
been defeated. With hard schedule
ahead, more reverses are no doubt in
order.
Dartmouth, which has had a couple
of ordinary years, since the departure
of Oberlander, seems about ripe for a
big season. In the early games, the
Green team has shown great strength.
It will soon be put to the acid test.
While the failures of Dartmouth IN
the last few years may not be due
entirely to the loss of Oberlander,
there is no doubt but that the
coaches, who had built much of their
play around him, keenly felt his alb
Sence.

Big TEN TITLE
is IN BALANCE
In GAMES TODAY

CHICAGO, Oct. % QP)-The football
championship of the western confer
ence hangs in the balance tomorrow,
as Illinois and Michigan, undefeated
in Big Ten competition or outside
of it this year, meet at Urbana, in
the outstanding game of the days
schedule.
Two other games will have a bear
ing on the championship situation
with Minnesota engaging Wisconsin
at Minneapolis and Chicago, the con-
uueror of Pennsylvania, Purdue and
Indiana, trying to learn what, il
anything, is wrong at Ohio State.
These battles, together with Mich
igan-Illinois, are all that will have
bearing on the title, Tor North
western, Purdue, Indiana. and Iowa
will take on opponents outside OF
"Big Ten" competition. Northwestern
will meet Missouri at Evanston, with
Iowa encountering Denver at Iowa
City, and Purdue mixing with Mon
tara State at Lafayette. Indiana has
gone east for fling at Harvard
already cuffed about by Purdue and
Dartmouth
Conservative estimates are that
$1,000 to 10000 will witness the
Michigan Illinois game in the Illinois
memorial stadium, with upwards OF
$1,000 viewing the Minnesota and
Wisconsin at Minneapolis and $4,000
to $4,000 at Columbus.
The sideline experts were unwilling
tonight to hazard a guess on the
outcome Of the Illinois, Michigan en-
counter. The Wolverine eleven is the
only team in the Big Ten that has
not had its goal line crossed this
season, while rolling up SO points
against its opponents. Illinois pro-
vided a sensational upset last Satur-
day in nosing out Northwestern and
gives evidence of having swung into
form Coach zuppke, the crafty gen
eral of Illinini, may be expected TO
check the wolverines, if anyone can.
Illinois for the last two years has
not scored on Michigan and defen-
sive strength OF the Wolverines will
again be a factor in tomorrow's battle.
Michigan has remarkable way of
scoring without wasting much effort
in futile ground gaining. The VOL
verines employ Louis Gilbert's great
