Cornell Princeton-At Ithaca. Prince
ton fell before Brown, but, for all that,
Bill Roper's Tiger outfit has firSt-claSs
possibilities. It should be strong enough
to beat Cornell, although Dobie has a
better team than he had last Fall.
Yale-Brown-At New Haven. Having
beaten Princeton, Brown will now at
tempt to hook another member of the
old Triumvirate within q week. Brown
has been erratic and Yale is below last
years stuff, with only fair backfield
material-nothing to rave about. Brown
has at least an even chance, possibly
a shade.
Iowa Illinois-At Iowa City. A hard
game for zuppke's team, but one he
should win. Illinois looks to be among
the strongest four or five teams In the
country, with another good shot at the
Western Conference championship.
Texas Oklahoma-At Dallas. One of
the feature turns of the Southwest.
Both teams have been well up, but in
meeting Texas should have the edge.
North Carolina Georgia-At Chapel
Hill. Georgia beat Yale, but the Red
and Black invaders from Athens will
have harder job to face in overpower-
ing North Carolina, the team that
trimmed Georgia Tech. North Carolina
has one of the best teams in the South
and should be good enough to win,
after a hard afternoon.
Vanderbilt should win from Auburn,
and Virginia has a shade on v. M. I.
Nebraska-P Pittsburgh - At Lincoln
Nebraska was good enough to crowd her
way by Syracuse, but Pittsburgh is
another. The Panthers have one of
the best teams In any section you can
think about, of hand or on hand, here
or there, upside or down.

TWO T|LTS ON TAP

HoyaS Play West Virginia

Meet GalIaudet.

~ My two of Washington's five
college foot ball teams are
playing at home today, George

ginia Wesleyan at Griffith
Stadium and Maryland playing host at
College Park to Gallaudet.
George Washington plays Dickinson
at Carlisle, Pa, American University
meets Baltimore University in Balti-
more and Catholic University tackles
Villanova in Philadelphia.
Both local games start at 2:3O O'Clock.
Georgetown was expected to defeat
Wesleyan, which 1t vanquiShed last year
by "a to z, but the Hoyas are taking
the game seriously. The Bobcats have
lost three games, but in each their
performance was creditable. They have
hopes of taking Georgetown's measure.
The Hilltoppers are minus three reg
ulars, with Ken Provincial and Bob
Brennan, and John Hudak, fullback,
out with injuries.
MARYLAND anticipated a struggle with
Gallaudet and the Terrapins were keyed
I'D for today. The Kendall Greeners
have their strongest team in years.
George Washington figures to take a
licking from Dickinson, but American
University's well coached eleven would
surprise nobody by beating Balti-
more u.
Villanova, one of last years unbeaten
and united teams, expected to find
Catholic University plenty tough.

Perhaps the most startling occur
renee in the nature of an upset last
Saturday was the defeat of New York
University by Fordhapl. 1t was the
first real shrinkage of Violet prestige for
some little time, and the result of the
inquest is not yet completed. 1t never
is completed in the case of one of
these foot pall upsets.
1t seems that at the same time.
Princeton was more or less upset by
Brown. On the same day Yale went
to Athens to pay a courtesy call on the
University of Georgia and the Yale
team was upset. On the day before
Georgia Tech was upset by the Uni
versity of North Carolina.
1t would seem that this advance
foot ball dope Is quite as unreliable
as the stories from the Spring train
ing camps of the base ball teams or
as the accounts which come from
the training camps of the prizefight-
ers They do not work quite as well
in practice as they do in theory.
There is one game on the schedule
today which should give some line on
intersectional strength. The team OF
the University of California journeys
east to meet Pennsylvania at Phila-
delphia. Vast year when two Pacific
Coast teams ratified ,EeSt on the Pull
mans to meet teams in New York 1t
mas felt that the journey might have
worn them out and the idea was that
they must have left all their foot ball
on the railroad ties.
But the Oregon Aggies beat the Uni
verSity of New York, showing no signs
of train WEAKNESS. and Stanford GER
tainly beat the Army team in very
thorough fashion. There, might have
been a disposition to call those games
upsets, but when tcoms are upset TO the
extent that ts1e Army was by Stanford
il looks as though there ought to be 9
better word.
Army goes to Harvard today, and

invariably at the point of contact.
This by a team nearly every
member of which was making his
debut in championship competi-
ton. Therein lay the glory OF
Hardell. He lost almost an entire
team by graduation, but made an
other one SO quickly and so well
that the noble efforts of the boys
themselves are almost lost sight
of as the town focuses on the chap
whose wizardry made their sue
cess possible.
Inasmuch as Eastern was an out
standing favorite, Tech must be re-
| garded now as a favorite to keep the
! title. The Manual Trainers next Friday
will meet one OF their principal rivals
in Central.
One of the many qualities Of Hardell's
| new team Is alertneSS. This helped
nightly in the scoring Of its first points
against Eastern. The battle was four
minutes old when Sid Kolker, right
tackle blocked a punt by Charley Mil
lar, scooped it up and ankled 40 yards
| for a touchdown, first clearing q small
group Of the enemy.
Hardell teams ever have been skilled
in the forward pass and it was thought
the Manual Trainers would use this
weapon extensively yesterday, but they
employed less than half dozen passes
Two of them were instrumental IN
scoring a touchdown.
Near the end of the third period
Quarterback Aubrey Spencer tossed one
to Capt. Willis Benner which gained 10
yards and put the ball on Eastern's
! lO-yard line. With the resumption OF
action in the fourth quarter the play
was duplicated, this time for 9-yard
gain by air and one stride by Benner
| for the touchdown. Benner kicked both
extra points.
The ball was In Eastern territory
| three-fourths of the game. The Lincoln
| ParkerS scored their two points by
means of an automatic safety, which
was allowed when Nelson OF Tech
stepped out of bounds behind the end
zone in the first period. This occurred
after Eastern had punted over the goal
| line.
While Eastern and Tech were having
it out another hot contest was In
progress among schoolboys that won't
soon be forgotten. In this Dewitt
School defeated washington and Lee
| High at BallSton, IL to 0, and the battle
was so warm that even the spectators
caught the fighting fever. Some OF the
home team supporters wanted TO scrap
with Dewitt players. NOuIlty pollCe Sd"
to it that warfare was confined to the
gridiron.
Business High went over to Annapolis
and scored a hard-earned victory over
the st. Johns junior varsity, to O..
| The Stenogs made a touchdown in the
| final quarter fhen Reichstardt took a
long pass from Duryee and ran IS yards
across the goal.
The st. Johns Props Of Washington
made one touchdown in each period to
defeat Gordon Kessler's new Landon
eleven, 26 to 6. Fullback Morris count
| ed twice for the winners.
Curley CasasSa of Washington, the
regular quarterback OF st. Johns of
Annapolis, is done for a spell. Curley's
shoulder was broken in the Gallaudet
game last Saturday, an X-ray reveals.

Pennsylvania.
Heralded as one of the wonder teams
of the West, the Golden Bears. led by
Capt. Roy ReigelS, ruled 2-to-l tavorites
over their opponents, despite the fact
that Penn has pointed for this game.
The interSectional struggle packs a
punch for fandom and long before game
time today capacity crowd OF ap-
proximately 10000 was assured.
Both coaches, "NibS" Price of the IA
karat Bears and Lou Young of the
QuakerS, have announced that they
were prepared ITO shoot the works" in
today's battle. The Bears have twice
beaten Pennsylvania in post-season
games on the Western Coast, but this
is the Californians' first trip here.
Much was expected of Benny LON,

ghost, possessed of speed, Snaky hits and
foot ball brains. He is a constant triple
threat player who either runs passes or
kicks as the occasion demands. EiSan,
Barr, GrifithS, Rice and HickingbOth-
am are other CalifornianS who can
pound out yardage or step along on
passing plays, but Lom las carried the
ball on nearly half the California plays

Pennsylvania is not lacking in speed
merchants, especially in the backheld,
where Masters, Gentle, Wilmer and

the ball for the Red and Blue.
