CLOSER AMONG COLLEGES
 FOR GRID CHAMP

New York, N. r., Nov 13.-In- tersectional rivalry among leading college teams is giving unusual in- terest this year to the work of the jurors of the Albert Russell Err skine award, according to W. O. McQeehan, chairman.
 Mid-section conditions in the race for the annual football cham pionship forecast the emergence, at the end of the season, of one fairly unchallenged team in each geographical section of the coun- try. Although 1t is contrary to the Erskine Award practice to in- dicate any candidates in advance, 1t is believed that, on the showings to date, the west coast, the south, the central section, and the east will each have at least one prom ising entrant. This has not been true in former years, when Notre Dame has run far ahead of the field with competition only from Southern California, Alabama, and Washington.
 Teams unbeaten to date and teams united to date, while obvi- ously important for consideration, are not of necessity sure to in: ciude the name of the eventual winner, Mir McGeehan believes.
 An element of moved interest this year more than ever before is the prevalence of gridirons of the teachings of one man--Rockne. The opinion has been ventured by ex- pert critics that even if the tro- phy does not remain in South Bend, it will go to a Rockne team. Knute himself. having won for two successive years the Studeba- ker which the winning teams coach receives. has perhaps trans mitted the knack to some of his many pupils.
