DIXIE TITLE HOPES
MAY Be WRECKED
Some Southern Conference
Games Today Bear on
Championship.
BY EDDIE BRETT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

~HAMP1oNsHIP hopes Of 81,
Southern Conference teams ar,
likely to be wrecked following
~ today's doingS on Dixie foo
ball fields.
Alabama can eliminate the University
of Mississippi, which already has beer
beaten once, by victory at Tuscaloosa
but Coach Wallace Wade's team Is badly
crippled, and If the Tide downs the
young giants coached by Homer Haze
the other outfits on the Alabama sched.
ule can prepare for plenty of trouble.
Coach Chuck Collins is so anxious to
trim Maryland that he will start IL
North Carolina veterans against the Old
Liners at College Park. Lipscomb, cen.
ter, will be the only sophomore In the
lineup
Clemson looks a couple of touchdowns
better than Auburn, even with Gresham
the varsity center, on the sidelines with
lime burns.
Well Matched Teams.
On the basis Of their showings last
Saturday, Virginia and South Carolina
which meet at Columbia, appear to be
an even bet. -
Florida is liked over v. M. I. at
Tampa, but the always tricky Cadets
are pointed for this game, and Coach
Bill Raftery hopes for a close score.
With Pappenheimer. their backfield
ace, going strong, the Mississippi Aggies
are hoping to give Georgia Tech an in
teresting afternoon at Atlanta. The
Tornado is favored to cop its first 1929
start with room to spare.
Visiting scouts probably will get q
line on the real strength of the Duke
Blue Devils in their game with the
Pitt Partners at Durham. It Is no
secret that Coach Jimmy De Hart ex-
poets to keep the score down to g. or
10 points.
The other conference aggregations
meet less formidable opponents, but
some Of them are loaded with high
explosives.
Billy Banker and his colleagues Of
the Tulane Green Wave can count on
a busy afternoon with the Texas Aggies
at New Orleans, and the University of
Chattanooga Moccasins. 1928 cham
pions Of the S. :. A. A., would give their
collective right arm to take a fall out
of the Tennessee Volunteers at Chat
tanooga. -.
GeorRis Gets Another Test.
Georgia gets its last test before the
Yale game against the Purple Hur-
ricane Of Furman University. F1rman
hopes to do what Oglethorpe did last
week and upset the Athens Bulldogs.
The other games in which conference
teams engage are more or less In the
nature of warm-ups. With Minnesota
to be faced next week, Vanderbilt will
rely on sophomores and reserves to trim
Ouachita. - Kentucky doesn't expect
much trouble from Maryville. Louisiana
State probably will win as it chooses
from Southwestern Louisiana. and the
v. p. 7. coaches mean to use the
Hampden-Sidney game to overhaul the
Gobbler attack from top to bottom.
In the 8. I. A. A. interest centers
around the Oglethorpe- Citadel game, at
Charleston. Last week the Petrels trim
med Georgia and the Bulldogs showed
a real offensive by amaSsfng SO POINTS
against Newberry. Both teams arc
leading championship contenders.

SAN FRANCISCO, october 5.-Far
Western gridirons resumed today TO
the thunder Of great coast conference
conflicts and additionally bitter battles
betWeen old.time foot ball rivals.
Championship hopes Of six coast con.
ference teams will be raised or lowered
according to the results OF three en-
counters.
Ranked first in importance from a
conference standpoint Is the game that
will bring q reputedly powerful Univer-
sity Of Oregon eleven to the stronghold
Of Stanford's Cardinals. Not IN many
years have Oregon followers held OUT
such high hopes for Lemon and yell
low squad as the 1929 creation STAN
ford, too, has team Of many possibin-
ties and much power, as evidenced by
its victory over the Olympic Club squad
last week.
While the Cardinals are the general
favorites, Oregon is conceded far more
chance than Oregon State ana Mon
tana. who meet Southern California and
Washington, respectively. in the other
conference engagements.
Southern California's Trojans over
whelmed u. C. L. A. last Saturday. rs

in somewhat milder fashion. Washing
tons Huskies, powered by modern
offense, are expected to have no difn-
Guilty In brushing aside Montana's Griz-
Glies.
So far as interest Is concerned, no
other game tomorrow compares with the
California-St. Mary's clash at Berkeley.
Since 1915 these rivals have fought for
gridiron glory with fury seldom
equaled. From its student registra-
ton Of less than TOO st. Mary's has pro-
duced another strong team this year
and there are some critics who believe 1t
will defeat California. Seventy thousand
persons are expected to see the contest.
Other games include Washington
State and Mount ST. Charles: Univer-
sity Of California at Los Angeles versus
Fresno State; Idaho and Whitman and
Brigham Young against the California
ARRieS.
