 Smith Statement
 "In last minute desperate at tempt to turn the overwhelming tide of public support for President Roosevelt, the republican party IS striking new low in political dis honesty. It Is unnecessary to argue about the nature ofstheir deliberate falsification of the nature and intent of the Social Security Act The facts which I recite herewith speak for themselves.

 New York, October 30 (UP) -I have just completed six weeks tour of politically important states final checkup of United Press surveys which began 18 months ago. My conclusions are that:
 l. Improved business conditions will be the determn- ing factor in Tuesdays presidential election.
 2. The popuouS lake states will be won this year by uniformly narrow margins.
 3. Party lines collapsng under pressure of New Deal appeals to and who work with their hands
 4. President Roosevelt of today, has more sure states and sure electoral votes than has Governor Ali M Landon.
 S. Alast-minute republican attack on the New Dea Social Security wage levies costing MT Roosevelt votes s9 6. The CougllinL Lenke- Townsend influence is ing but still may have vital significance in extremely close states.
 '. The republican charge of government extrava- gance has not been generally effective among recipients of federal bountieS.
 8. Mr. Roosevelt's radio personality has been Ire mendous campaign asset; Governor Landons radio per Sonaty has been liability.
 g. The shift of liberal radical votes to the demo cratic party has been at more rapid pace than the shift of protesting conservative votes to the republican party the inter-party movement will continue and ultimately change the face of politics in this country

Maybe, without knowing it, I'm
using the silly selection system.
sometimes called the upset or
applicant process. Anyhow, was
even thinking of taking Duquesne
over Pitt, U. C. L. A. over Califor-
mia. and perhaps Harvard over
Army and Washington State over
Southern California. But that's
one thing about thinking. Nobody
ever got sued for that.
Little Duquesne is awful good,
but you just can't pick against Pitt.
In a slightly lesser sense, that goes
for U. S. C. and California. But I
should say that all the Short-end-
ers. Duquesne. Harvard, U. C. L. A.
and Washington State, have quite
a chance in these meetings, if you
feel like playing a few hot ones
bare-handed.
Must Find Running Attack
1t looks as though I'm calling
for couple of pitch-outs in taking
Georgia and Vanderbilt. The lat
ter was beaten by something
named Southwestern last week, but
S. M. U. will have to find some
thing to use for a running attack
in the few days since Fordham,
and I think Ray Morrison can
pull one out against his former
team, unless his young son gets
going for the Methodists. The
young man seemed to be the only
running back in the S. M. U. squad
and a Fordham man twisted his
ankle into gimlet a week ago.
Georgia yielded AZ points to
Louisiana State last Saturday.
but anybody can pick them the
easy way; so I'm defeating Rice
after a very gripping encounter.
Duke? I take that one without
preamble or apology. in spite of
the fact that the boys on the
papers up here are already tout
ing Tech for the Rose Bowl-and
maybe because of this. It has
run up lat points in three games
and nobody has scored yet.
That's a little too easy in getting
ready for Duke, for all wallace
Wade outfits are tough teams in
tough ball game.
You've got to more or less stab
the Mort INV e stern-Ohio state
thing, but I'm still impressed
with the fact that Pitt was able
to gain 251 yards against the
Buckeyes without throwing
pass, causing one to wonder what
will happen when somebody
starts to throw them. Somebody
will start tomorrow, I suspect
and it might be the Buckeyes, at
that.
Picks Tulane
In all, some twenty-seven unde-
feated major teams will go for an
airing during the day, there being
as many as seven games between
teams whose records are clear.
1t may or may not be of the
slightest Importance, but I think
the following will blow the ace:

Duquesne, Texas A. and M, Wash.

A full football dish awaits
school elevens today. A total OF
nine games are on schedule, five
on local gridirons, four, out-of

The Central-St. Johns clash is
the feature. The Mt. Pleasanters
will be seeking to erter the win
column after last weeks loss to
Fork Union Military Academy.
Because of a more experienced
team, the Blue and White will be
a heavy choice over the Johnnies.
The Gonzaga-Roosevelt contest
will be interesting in that it'll
offer some idea of Roosevelt's
strength. The Riders lost to a
classy Bulls Prep eleven last
week, but against Gonzaga will
have more of a chance to tri-
umph. Gonzaga lost to Tech,
Tuesday, by 81 to s.
A real battle is expected be-
tween Georgetown Prep and
Friends since they are torrid
rivals. The teams are about
evenly matched, which should
help in the fireworks.
Eastern promises to run into
trouble against Calvert Hall in
Baltimore as will Landon against
st. Paul's. Both local elevens
triumphed in their last appear
ances, Eastern defeating st.
Johns, 80 to 6. and Landon, best
ing st. Andrews, IL to 0.
The remaining games will be
tune-up tests for the elevens in
volved for more important con-
tests later. However, they'll help
make the day both busy and en-
tertaining, which is what the
scholastic populace seeks and
gets each Friday during the foot
ball season.
