Head Coach, University Of Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh. oct. 30.-Thc first Sat-
urday in November will dish up the
greatest bill Of fare in football 50 far
this year.
There are five intersectional COM
bats this weekend. three Of them
bringing together six Of the leading
teams of the country.
Notre Dame brings its Irish to our
backyard here. and am looking for
a game equally as tough as that en-
counter with Minnesota After los
ing to Texas in the opener. Elmer
Layden has brought his team along
at q steady pace. The Notre Dame
system Is clicking smoothly this year,
and my scouts report that the Irish
are using from 40 to S. players in
each game.
Layden will have more and bigger
football players than Pitt. and just as
much experience. I'm picking Notre
Dame In q close one.
Fordham has q chance to make up
for its loss to st. Mary,s by beating
Tennessee. The Volunteers will be
hard pressed, after two tough Satur-
days against Alabama and Duke, to
muster enough power to best the
Rams. I'm picking Crowley's eleven.
Army Given Edge
Army travels out west to Illinois.
This is likely to 60 either way. I'LL
nois almost won last fall, and ought
to be better, while Army possibly is
not as strong. The Illini, however.
have had q couple Of tough ones, and
might not be back in form. Army,
hesitatingly.
In other games, Navy should be too
tough for w. g. L., the same team
that Princeton was lucky to beat, and
Detroit should overpower Oklahoma
A. & NJ.
In the middlewest, Chicago and
Minnesota should stay at the top of
the race for Big Ten honorS by beat
ing Purdue and Michigan.
Iowa and Indiana will be engaging
in grudge-fight, but the Hoosiers
will be too much for the faltering
Hawkeyes, who are having difficulty
living up to their early season prom
Use.
Northwestern and Wisconsin meet
in q game that will have little bear
ing on the title race, and II either
team wins, 1t will be Wisconsin.
The two big games In the east will
see Dartmouth and Princeton re-
naming undefeated. I think Dart
mouth is going to make New England
football history by defeating Yale for
the first time. Princeton should have
little trouble In beating Harvard.
Columbia will continue its winning
ways by handing another defeat to
Cornell, and Carnegie Tech shouldn't
find N. Y. U. very difficult.
Alabama Over Kentucy
There Is little particularly exciting
to watch for south Of the Mason
Dixon lire. Alabama will find Ken
lucky below its par Of other years,
Duke should have little trouble with
Auburn, and Vanderbilt has nothing
to fear from George Washington.
One close battle looms on the Pa
cific Coast. This should take place
when California and Santa Clara
meet. The Saints are tough, but Cal
ifornia Is about due to win q really
decisive victory, and may elect to
make 1t this weekend.
Washington likely will give Ore
gon State trimming. and Stanford
will keep pace with washington by
handing U. G. l.. A. another defeat.
Iowa State. the same eleven that
shell shocked Iowa. is liable to do
the same thing to Kansas, although
in this case it will not be any sur
prise. Oklahoma will keep up with
the Cyclones in the Big Six by
whipping Missouri.
The sole important game in the
southwest Is real headliner. bring
ing together Texas and Southern
Methodist. Southern Methodist will
be getting over the effects Of long
trip and hard game with Fordham.
I'll pick the Longhorns.
