touchdown Of the game and made
most Of the yardage for the War

brilliant passing and punting kept
the Ell Centro team on the defensive

of the contest did the Arabs dem
onstrate any offensive strength.

and winter character builders.
I've been following football for
quite a spell now, and have yet
to meet a coach who, when asked
how his team figured to do in
game, didn't pull the old gag of
saying it didn't have much chance
to win. They give you this even
when their opponents squad is just
a shade less menacing than the
bloomer girls with their best kicker
out with. injuries.
For some reason football coaches
think this is sound and wise policy.
They figure that if they tout Their
opponents to the high heavens the
public will excuse them if they use
and toast them in spades if they
win This isn't giving the public
credit for much sense People who
follow football know it pretty well.
They keep up with things sufficient
ly to know what material a coach
has and just about the results he
should gain from it. This is par
ticularly true of the alumni, which
is only natural, for its the alumni
body which sends most of the de-
cent material to a coach. You can't
kid it, for it's paying most of the
freight
But enough of that: Here are my
picks for today's games. Remember,
gave you the Giants!
Army over Columbia; Minnesota
over Nebraska; Pitt over Ohio State;
Stanford over Oregon; Georgia Tech
over Kentucky; Penn over Yale,
Fordham over Southern Methodist;
Notre Dame over Washington u;
Washington over U.C.LA.; Califor-
MIA over Oregon State; Louisiana
over Georgia; Purdue over Wiscon-
sin; and Southern California over
| Illinois

Football chats what the sport is
always spoken of at this time of
year, isn't it?) will be there to pay
homage.
1t came as somewhat of surprise
to learn that this many tickets. at
nearly five dollars throw, had
been sold, for the rival coaches
Lieutenant Garrison Davidson of the
Army and Mr. Lou Little of Colum-
bia-have both expressed the opin-
ion that it isn't going to be much
Of game.
At least, that's the Interpretation
I put on their remarks Coach Da-
wilson, in all his interviews with the
press the past week, said he couldn't
see anything but a rollicking victory
for Columbia. and that his team
would do we'll to hold down the
score. Mr.. Little was just as pes
simistic over Columbia'S chances.
To him Army seemed a cinch to
score fifty or more points against
his frail, inexperienced, and meager
squad
Now if the coaches were speaking
from their hearts, and surely they
wouldn't deliberately deceive earn
est, hard working reporters, there
isn't going to be much of a football
game. If their analyses are correct
Columbia will score every time il
lays its hand on the ball, as will
Army, this making for a telephone
number score and a game entirely
lacking in fight and suspense.
The sale Of more than $4,000
tickets would indicate that the foot
ball public places little faith in the
pre-game statement of coaches
This, I thinky is wise, for the busi-
ness of belittling their own chances
