GAbt3D9A 8e ASSba 4At-4eO 6 AASAA 4esA - for football fans on Saturday as they pick out which game to see.
 Foremost tntersectional games see Notre Dame travelling to Pitts. burg, and Saint Mary's engaging Tordham In New York. Purdue sends its fighting team against mighty Minnesota In the Big Ten feature in Minneapolis.
 While Pittsburg may be made the favorite over Notre Dame, the Partners are coming back after bruising battles with Ohio State and Duquesne. Elmer LAyden has 8 complete line that helped to beat us . year ago, and 1t has been reinforced by new men. The South Bend club lost some fine backs, but is three deep in other positions.
 7 I am not sure about just what sort of strength Pittsburg can muster to use against Notre Dame. The Irish know our of1etlse pret- ty well, and we expect t0 find the going tough.
 Saint Mary's has another great squad which comes east anxious to make up for last falls score- less tie with Fordham. The Ram has Q rugged line that should keep the Galloping Gaels at bay, how. ever. and Jim Crowley's array should be able to score atA least once to win.
 Purdue doesn't appear to have quite enough material to repel Bernie Bierman's remarkable Min. nesota machine.
 Princeton Seen Too Strong for Scrappy Navy Team
 A number of arguments will De settled along the Atlantic seaboard, traditional and sectional. NavS has a game, scrappy eleven, but it can not match Princeton, in weight, ex- perience, or manpower.
 Carnegie Tech meets one of the years eastern leaders in Holy Gross. The Tartans have had tough row to hoe thus far, and won't find Holy Gross . lot easier
 Cornell and Penn State renew relations, with the Nittany Lions the choice.
 Dartmouth and Harvard resume their traditional rivalry. The Big Green has served notice that 1t is a team to be feared, and the Crimson, while improved, must be rated the underdog.
 Pennsylvania should beat Brown, Army should walk over Springfield, Yale will handle Rutgers easily, and Colgate will have very little trouble with Lafayette.
 The big tntersectional battle down south will see Texas Chris tian passing to a win from Missis- sippi State, with Sammy Bough's good right arm representing the margin of victory.
 Tn other games between sectional leaders, Columbia will be favored over Michigan, Lou Little having one of his best teams this year; Catholic University should win ovel a travel-weary Mississippi eleven; Detroit will have . slight edge on Manhattan; Louisiana States rug. ged line will be too much for passes; and Syracuse will have long, hard but successful against Maryland. Ohio State Is Picked
 to Brush Indiana Aside
 Illinois will throw its trick forma- tons and wide-open game against Northwestern, but Lynn Waldorf has his team ready to go now, and will have too much power for the rllini.
 Ohio State should have little trouble with Indiana in another Big Ten battle, and Michigan State should have little trouble with Marquette.
 In the Big Six, interest centers on the Nebraska Oklahoma game. One of these will come out the conference leader, and Nebraska Is an odds-on choice to take this contest. Missouri has a slight edge on Iowa State, and Kansas SVsSeS VVCA &A1AAC8Os
 The outstanding southern game brings together Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt at Nashville. The En- sineers should prevail in a hard battle.
 Duke figures to find Tennessee below par of other years and cop. Auburn's line again Is it's margin of superiority over Georgia. Tu- ane has caused all sorts of trou- ole already in the south and should hand North Carolina a de- Ieat further complicating matters.
 The southwest lines up Texas A. and M. against Baylor, and Texas and Rice. Texas A. and N. and Texas will finish in front.
 Southern California is moving and Stanford is finding the going heavy after the loss of Paulman, } fine back and kicker. It looks Ike the Trojans. Washington has lost some key men by injuries, but hasn't hit its real stride. and it's a vote for the Huskies in this one. Washington State should beat Oregon, and U. c. L. A. Is picked over Oregon State. Copyright, 1886, NEA Service, 1nc.)
