Evening star., 1932-10-22

that the ides Of October have
passed and the foot ball season
has settled down to grim busi-
ness. let us take a look around ana
see how things stand:
Alabama-Having won one game in
the Southern Conference and lost one,
'Bama stands no chance of losing an
other until she meets Vanderbilt on
November "a, and this contest will be
toss-up.
Army.-One of the crack teams OF
the country. Should beat Yale next
week. face Harvard on even terms two
weeks later and will then have no worry
outside of Notre Dame. Which will be
worry enough.
Auburn.-Clean slate 50 far, will
probably lose to Tulane on Saturday
and thereafter vii have no serious OBJ
stacle other than Georgia.
Notwithstanding october 20 faces
Harvard. Holy Cross, Columbia and
Colgate in turn. The Providence team
will be hard put to win any one OF
them.
CALIFORNIA is stumbling and mas
~ got to come fast to meet Wash
ington, Southern California and
Stanford on even terms. They say the
coaches got expansive down there and
added certain offensive thrills which
the boys did not assimilate.
Colgate.-If she gets by New York
University Saturcay-which is fairly
likely-she ought not to have mucn
trouble until she meets Brown in late
November
Columbia.-Fine material and beau
t;fully coached. Her Cornell game wall
be tougher than many think. If sh:
gets by this test it may turn out tnat
Brown alone will stand between the
Lions and an unbeaten season.
Cornell-See above.
Dartmouth-Beautiful material, but
apparently scrimmage worn. Looks as
if the team had played too many games
in Hanover. Tired.
Fordham.-Very strong, very rugged.
very good. Look at her schedule ana
see that only intrepid teams are tao
king the Rams. st. Mary's looks to be
her greatest obstacle to completing an
undeIeated year.
Georgetown.-Weak this year.
CEORGIA-A young but fiery and
" determined team. Those 25 points
scored against Tulane marked q
real coaching triumph. Vanderbilt
Saturday and then in turn New York U.
and Auburn may all pin back the Bull
dogs ears. Then again some OF them
may not.
Georgia Tech.-Plenty of troubles lie
ahead of this light and subs.andard
outfit.
Holy Cross.-One of the best teams
that ever represented the Worcester in
stisution. Win meet Harvard and
Brown on even terms. Should win the
classic Boston College game.
Harvard-Looks as if she Is getting
set to beat Yale, which is all they care
about in Cambrid-e. Brown. Army and
Holy Cross will give the Crimson plenty
to think about before they 60 to New
Haven.
Indiana Sailing along nicely, but
what rocks are those looming abe ad?
Michigan on November 5, Purdue No
vember 10.
Illinois.-Too many Illinois boys 60
ing to Northwestern and elsewhere
the Illini are in the doldrums.
-Fair-for Iowa. Should be
i stopped Saturday by Minnesota.
Iowa State.-Not too good. Should
have her last taste of victory when she
meets Missouri Saturday until late IN
the season, when Drake is encountered.
Kansas.-Will probably win two GU
CT five remaining games, viz, st. Louis
and Missouri
Kentucky-May beat v. P. 1. Sa ,ur-
day and then may well lose a The
rest OF her games.
Latayette-If she gets by Buckne'l
next week-not too lkely-she has a
chance for an unde 'eated season.
Louisiana St.te-Wi'l lose no game5
until she meets Tulane November IS,
and don't give Odds she will lose that
one.
Marqnette.-Looks like below aver
Michigan.-Lccms as tn. Big Ten
champion.
Minpesoto Shon'd be playing better
ball than she hes. what with her mate
rial. May yet click.
ATAvY.-The backfeld is not taking
~ to the Notre Dame system
Nebraska.-Shouid win the Blk
Six title.
New York U.-Her days of ease are at
an end Colgate Purdue, Georgia and
Fordham stand in line. Give her one
game out of the four.
Northwe stern. - Unbalanced. Misses
stars of Yesterday.
Notre Dame.-Untested yet. but un-
doubtedly real Notre Dame team.
Cklahcma.-Good average team.
Oregon-Only fair.
Oregon State-Somewhat below aver
age.
Pennsylvania-Good, but likely to
lose to Pittsburgh. and Ohio state.
\ Pittsburgh-O One Of the fine teams of
the country.
