International News Service Sports Writer
NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-The
Nations football powers will move
out against each other Saturday in
the greatest array of big time
games scheduled to date and it is
a virtual certainty that the ap-
palling upset casualty list will be
further swelled.
It is tough team against tough
team in nearly every instance
from here on out, and the weeping
and wailing are about to be turned
on in earnest as one after another
of the hopeful big timers fall
riddled.
In the East, Syracuse is con-
fronted by the task-and oppor-
tunity-of stopping Cornell's ram
paging Reds. Syracuse probably
will be thoroughly whipped, as
was Princeton, or crushed, as was
Colgate, by the Cornell eleven, but
it is a game worth watching. By
now Cornell's young men figure to
be thinking they're pretty good.

goes for Fordham's Rams who will
trot out in another Eastern head

the strong Yale eleven, which f.

Still another Eastern feature will
reveal whether Harvard really has
it, the opposition to be the i'm

COLGATE AND TULANE
Other major encounters in this
section will bring together Colgate
and Tulane, Columbia and Penn,
Manhattan and Villanova, Car
negie Tech and Notre Dame, and
Georgia and Holy Cross.
At Chicago, the Chicago eleven
which has been Shutout by Wander

little better luck with Princeton
in a Mid-WeStern feature. Twice

LONDON BOASTS
KNOCKOUT over
BANTAM CHAMP

Danny London, the 21-year-old
New York East Side fighter, who
battles Washington's Lou Gevin-
son in one Of the star 10-rounders
on next Monday nights 38-round
boxing show at Griffith Stadium
for the kiddies' free luncheon
fund, is full proof that miracles
do happen.
Born a mute, London had his
hearing and speech restored to
him in one of his early profes-
sional fights a few years ago.
Until that wallop on the head,
delivered by his foe just as the
bell sounded, London lived in a
silent world, and never dreamed
he would be able to talk, much
less hear again.
NEW MAN
The fighters Joy knew no
bounds. He was new man
could hear, could speak. And
London scored a knockout that
night.
From then on he moved rapidly
up the fistic ladder, and today he
is considered one of the finest
featherweightS in the business.
London'S record is studded with
sparkling victories. He stopped
Bantamweight Champion Harry
Jeffra in six rounds right in
Harry's own backyard, Baltimore.
He beat Tony Chavez, Mike Bel
