R0CKNE SINGS BLUES
Stanford Favored to Trip
Up Army Stars.
BY GEORGE II. BEALE.
United Press staff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 1.-The
Irish of Notre Dame and the Tro-
jams of Southern California were
to resume their intersectional foot
ball feud before approximately 3d.
900 fans in the coliseum here this
afternoon.
The weather bureau promised
ideal conditions and since each
eleven was in top shape this, the
third game between the two teams
promised to be the most colorful Of
the series.
For the first time since the first
meeting in 1926, Southern Califor
MIA was favored to win. The betting
margin was slight in view of the
comparative records, but it favored
the Trojans, 10 to 8.
Visions of the one-point victories
eked out by Rockne's Ramblers in
1926 and again in 1927 held up
more lucrative odds for hackers Of
Notre Dame. The Irish tripped
Southern California Is to II here
in 1926, and Z to in Chicago last
season.
A rather pessimistic Rockne
steered his squad n here from Tue
son Friday night Wen be lucky
if we aren't trounced" and How
are we going to stop them?" were
some of the things muttered by the
veteran Notre Dame coach.

Ry United Press
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The casts
last chance to regain and maintain
prestige won in earlier intersectional
football games this season rested
with the Army today. Attendance
was expected to 10000.
Pop Warner, shrewd old coach CT
Leland Stanford's eleven, brought a
great team to Yankee stadium to try
the mettle Of Biff Jones soldiers,
and the odds favored the westerners
to win the first gridiron battle they
have fought in eastern territory.
Battered by Nebraska's 200
Founders in last Saturdays game
on the plains of West Point, the
Army faced a physical handicap in
today's encounter with a Cardinal
eleven which not only is large in
size but fast and tricky as we'll.
Candidates for all-American hon
ors were to be seen in action at the
big ball park this afternoon. Chris
tian eagle of the Army was to make
his farewell appearance after
season which has stamped him as
the greatest open field runner and
the hardest man to stop of al east
ern ball carriers. The Cardinals
presented for the inspection of east
ern football critics two of the best
guards that ever delighted coach's
heart in Post and Robesky, while
Hoffman,, Stanford captain, was to
go plunging against the Army line
for a place among the all-American
backs of the year.

football team the greatest the school
has produced in the last ten seasons.
They even are going so far as TO
rate the current TornadoS with
those famous ones Of 1917-10. That
in itself, is praise a-plenty, for
those teams of a decade or so ago
were ranked with the country's BEST
The 1917 aggregation especially,

of 491 points to its opponents IL.

to return. But this pair together
with Hill, Harlan, Flowers, Barron,

in seven trays to 80 for the foe. In
three of the games Georgia Tech
passed the Hotpoint mark, Furman
falling, 1913 to 0.
Late in the 1918 campaign the At

great University of Pittsburgh outfit
at Pittsburgh. The two teams were
rated as the cream of the collie
giate world. Neither had been
scored on. The game was heralded
as the football classic of the year.
