Tech battle of undefeated teams at
Albany, N. Y.
tcrieus cadets tangle with Notre eo Dame
at New YORK and close to 10000 are
expected at the Navy-Michigan battle
at Baltimore.
Army's undcfeated record will be at
stake in the Yankee Stadium. Notre
Dame. beaten by Wisconsin and Georgia
Tech, hes been coming along fast, but
there are few who believe Knute
Fockne's eleven can upset the Cadets
who already have disposed of such out
standing teams as Southern Methodist,
Yale and Harvard.
Michigan and Navy Improving.
Michigan and Navy have known de-
feat rather often this season, but have
shown remarkable recuperative powers.
After three successive setbackS, the
Midshipmen have defeated Duke, Penn
sylvania and West Virginia Wesleyan
IN a row. Michigan accepted four re-
verses before staging one of the sea-
sons outstanding upsets with 80
victory over Illinois last Saturday.
Yale. Princeton and West Virginia
ell face intersectional foes they are
favored TO defeat. The Ellis battle
Maryland, which lost 9-6 to Virginia

the Tigers TO a scoreleSs draw few
weeks ago.
West Virginia's Mountaineers, who
play Fordham at the Yankee Stadium

Saturday. The WeSternerS have found
the going extremely tough this season,
losing their first four games without
scoring a point.
Syracuse sixth team to uphold East
ern prestige against an eleven from
another section takes the field against
undefeated Ohio Wesleyan. The Ohio
Conference team has six victims to its
credit so far, one of them being Mich
igan's Wolverines.
Many Big Time Battles.
The schedule does not lack for big
time battles among the ome-bredS. In
addition to the Carnegie Tech-George-
town game there are such outstanding
attractions as Pennsylvania Harvard,
Dartmouth Brown. Fordham Boston
College, Pitt-Washington and Jefferson.
Wesleyan-Williams, Lehigh-Bucknell and
Lafayette Rutgers. OF these perhaps
PENIS tangle with the Crimson of
Harvard offers the most opportunity for
spectacular foot ball Aside from a 60
setback by the Navy, Lou Young's Penn
squad has swept through its schedule
like whirlwind. but there is strong
suspicion in some quarters at least, that
Harvard is going to avenge that 900
defeat the Red and Blue inflicted upon
the Crimson last year.
Columbia, Cornell, Colgate, New York
University, Penn State and Holy Cross
face secondary opposition in Johns
Hopkins, st. Bonaventure, which plays
Canisius at Buffalo today, Hobart. AL
fred, George Washington and Boston
University respectively Johns Hopkins
and st. Bonaventure upset the dope last
year by tying Columbia and Cornell, but
the odds are against any repetition this
season.
