It is hardly possible that Carnegie
Tech has been able to replace Howard
HarpSter. one Of the b:St quarterbacks
that ever lived-a great field general,
o fine runner and kicker and a bril-
liant passer. Stars of that type are not
replaced In any one season-not often
in q decade. And Carnegie Tech will
find that the Notre Dame team Of 1929
is something entirely different from the
Notre Dame team Of 1928. These two
games come on day that bring to-
and Dartmouth, Princeton and the
Navy. Also Michigan and Illinois. But
along the line of foot ball the first two

About the most interesting games in
the East will be the Yale-Army, Prince

tests.
Both Army and Navy always play
good. hard foot ball. The Cadets and
Middies are invariably in the pink of

will have their hands full.
The Yale-Army game will be close.
and while West Point will have its

Cadets Line Strong.
The Army line appears stronger than
the New Haven line, and the Cadet
backs look better than the Yale backs,
except Booth. so I pick the Army to
win. The Army forward pass defense
seems to be its weak spot Perhaps
Yale will take advantage Of this and
make things interesting.
Princeton meets tartar in the Navy.
and though from the performance of
the Tigers to date most people would
pick Navy to win, / predict a close
game The Middies have very good
team with a veteran line, and Princeton
will have to fight hard for every inch
of ground.
Dartmouth, so far unbeaten and un-
scored upon, meets what looks to be
the best team Harvard has had for
years. Harvard proved last Saturday
against Army that there was power
both in her defense and offense, and
also showed a good passing attack. For
this reason pick Harvard. The game,
however, should be a fight from start
to finish, and If Harvard can't cover
Marsters it will be anybody's game.

Many Stars Out.
Only light workouts were on today's

own camps last night after short drills
and planned to take their last practice
exercises on enemy fields. Michigan
stopped over in Chicago and planned to
work out before proceeding to Illinois.
Purdue headed for Chicago this morn

Chicago this afternoon.
Almost every team was reported to
be without the services of one or more
stars on the eve of battle. Purdue's

SCORES INDICATE

Foot Ball Coach. University OF Southern
California.
~ TANFORD'S decisive victory over
Oregon State last week, used as a
basis for comparison with South
~ ern California, should result In
the Cardinals being considered a
favorite tomorrow. Southern California
defeated Oregon State 21-7, while
Stanford's win was 40-7.
But the scores are not used as sole
basis for favoring Stanford. Anyone
who saw the Stanford-Oregon State
game would come to only one conclus-
ion-if Stanford had left its first team
in the second half its score might just
as we'll have been 60 or 10.
Warner Thought Satisfied.
Those who recall Oregon States feat
in defeating New York University last
year must appreciate the strength of
the Stanford team in running up such
a score as 1t did last Saturday.
Rumors have been afioat that Coach
Warner is pretty well satisfied with his
team, and that the loss of Post
Robssky, Sellman, Hoffman and Wilton
has not greatly weakened the eleven.
1t should also be remembered that in
the Oregon State game Stanford played
without five good men, four of whom
are regulars-Rothert, halfback: Sim
kins, fullback; Heiser, guard; Preston,
end, and Hillman, fullback. These are
all undoubtedly ready for the Southern
California.
Breather for California.
Southern California, in her showing
thus far this season, has perhaps stood
out little more prominently than last
year. The team at times has shown
strength in the execution of offensive
plays.
The Olympic Club game will give
Coach Price of California an opportun-
ity to use his reserves, as he probably
does not intend to take chance with
his regulars after hard game with
Pennsylvania and just before the con-
test with Southern California. If Price
does not use his regulars 1t Is likely
that the Olympic Club will come out
on top, for this team presents line
up Of seasoned players.

SPEAKING of backfields, which is

1t Is well enough not to overlook two
young men by the name or names OF
Uansa and Parkinson of Pittsburgh.

The Case of Max Carey.
CLUB owners looking around for a

chance to bag such type as Max
Carey, who, after 20 years in the Ma
tional League, has drawn his release.
The reason most of them will prob
ably not overlook Carey is that he has
all the qualifications for a successful
manager-character ability, personal
magnetism, a close inside knowledge OF
every detail of base ball.
Carey has been one Of the best types
one of the smartest types base ball
has ever known. If given chance he
would almost surely make good. In
another direction he would be of big
aid to some club looking for man who

along the lines of batting and base run

COUNTY SCHOOL
NEEDS URGED
IN VIRGINIA

UNIVERSITY, Va, Nov. A.
The plight Of many Virginia
counties in their efforts to pro-
vide adequate educational facili-
ties for their children is depicted
by Plumlner F. Jones, division
superintendent Of Buckingham
county, in the first November is.
sue Of the University Of Virgins
News Letter.
Buckingham is one of the group
Of counties showing the lowest
school efficiency indices in the
State. It has always been an
agricultural county. When other
counties have been collecting
taxes from railroads, public ser.
vice corporations and factories,
Buckingham has been depending
entirely upon taxes collected from
her own farms and woods for the
support of her public institutions
Jones Surprised
\, Real estate valuations in Buck
ingham are $5,643, ,158 as CON-
pared with $22,072,176 for Albe-
marie and 1883, 900 for Au-
giIsta. OF other counties with
Buckingham in the low school
efficiency group are Patrick with
valuations of $7,654,137, Louisa
with $7,560,960, Buchanan with
$12,976,641, and Franklin with
$l5,o54,341.
Jones points out that with one
Of the lowest real estate valua-
lions in relation to number Of
school children it is not surpris-
ing that in 1928 Buckingham
raised only $4,000 for school pur-
poses. Augusta raised 1859 900.
Albermarle $150,o00, Henrico
$2S6, 900, Orange $4,000 and Ale
ehany $151, 900.
Of the low index counties
grouped with Buckingham there
was $4,000 raised in Louisa,
$4,000 in Patrick, $4,000 in
Buchanan, $4,000 in Floyd and
$4,000 in Franklin.
$27.11 Is Average
Virginia counties, for the
school year 1928, spent an
average of $27.11 per capita for
instruction. OF the low effici-
ency group Buckingham spent
$16.43, Patrick $1,000, Louisa,
S18.22, Buchanan $14.45. Floyd
S18.26 and Franklin $16.43.
At the same time Richmond
Aatv was exuending $63.O8, Nor
folk $62.31, Winchester $58.63,
county $3s.o3, Hanover $41.s5,
Augusta $500 and Albemarle
s29.s3.
ssNo one can wonder" writes
Jones that the average pay OF
teachers in Buckingham was only
SA12 a year and that the aver.
age length of the school term
was only 134 days. Nothing else
under the circumstances could be
expected"
"An equalization fund Of S20, ,0OO
o year would serve educationally
TO place Buckingham in the front
ranks Of the counties Of Viz
ginia. With the present wellor'
ranized school system, as u2.to'
date as any in the State, with
