1 Y hopes will be at stake all
along the foot ball line next
Saturday in the seasons most
brilliant array of important
games.
North and South, East and
West, highly touted elevens are
paired off in series of contests
that may go far toward determin-
ing the eventual sectional cham
pions.
In the East, the Pittsburgh Panthers
ana army, both OF whom play schedules
entltllng them to consideration in ma.
tlonal ratings, clash at West Point in a
Dattle OF unbeaten elevens. Pitt walloped
the Cadets, 26-0, last year, and appar-
emily has all kinds of power again. But
II the Panthers, defensively, are weaker
tnan a year ago, Armys speedy attack
quickly should discover it.
IN the Big Ten, the Michigan
L wolverines, triumphant over North
| western. tackle their traditional
RIVALS, the Buckeyes of Ohio State. and
Purdue, another highly-rated contender
meets DR.. Clarence Spears Wisconsin
| Badgers, Conference dark horses"
The elimination of at least two of the
contenders for the Southern Conference
title seems certain with the duels in
volving Tulane and Vanderbilt, and
Alabama and Tennessee, all unbeaten
thus lar. Despite its close call against
Georgia Saturday. Tulane, defending
champion, will be favored over Vander-
bilt but the Tennessee Alabama battle
| looks like toss-up.
California ard Washington State vii,
meet Ii The biggest game of the Pacific
Coast Conference schedule End the bat
| tie OF Texas Christian and Texas A. and
M heads the Southwest Conference
slate.
THERE are at least a score more
L leading trays with perhaps not
quite so important or direct a
bearing on the sectional championship
races. In the East, Penn and Dart
mouth tangle in one duel of undefeated
teams, and so DO New York University
and Georgetown, and Brown and Yale.
although the Ellis have been tied twice.
Princeton, on the basis of its fine Show
ing against Columbia, promises to give
Cornell all kinds of trouble
In the way of intersectional compe-
tltion. there are such contests as those
involving Columbia and Virginia, Navy
and Ohio University, Holy Cross and
Detroit and Southern Methodists and
Syracuse. Fordham and Colgate. Car
negie Tech and Washington and Jeffer-
son should put up close battles.
NORTHWESTERN and Illinois, In
IN diana and Iowa, round out the
Big Ten program. with Minnesota
tackllng Nebraska, Big Six champion,
| and Notre Dame expecting little more
than a workout against Drake
Iowa State and Kansas will clash
in one Big Six match and Kansas State
and Missouri in another, while Okla
homa, victor over Kansas last week,
faces the Texas Longhorns, who hand
ed Missouri humiliating $50 defeat
last Saturday.
Although the Tulane-Vanderbilt and
Tennessee Alabama games overshadow
the rest of the Southern Conference
schedule, there will be interesting
meetings between Auburn and Georgia
Tech, Georgia and North Carolina,
Duke and Maryland and Louisiana
State and Mississippi State. Kentucky
looks much too strong for Washington
and Lee
Southern California goes outside the
Pacific Coast Conference to meet Loy-
ola of Los Angeles, and Stanford plays
West Coast Army. Oregon and the
University of California at Los Angeles
and Montana and Idaho are matched
in conference games.
Utah and Brigham Young meet In
the big game of the Rocky Mountain
Conference schedule.
