of the long train trip, the change in climate, strange drinking water or a different cuisine. Such things were not even mentioned in picking Dart mouth to go down in defeat. The one and only reason offered was that Pacific Coast football is so much better than that played in the Ivy League" back in the decadent east, that Dartmouth's winning record means nothing. and Stanford's abil- ity to keep from losing only six games out here is a tribute to its strength.
 In other words, the Ivy League is composed of a group of panty waists who are taught blocking by their governesses and tackling by their tutors, and lack the rugged manhood to withstand the sort of punishment handed out by the stern, virile poineer stock of western teams.
 X Just why Stanford enthusiasts should feel this way I am sure don't know. Unless my memory is up to some tomfoolery the Stanfords found very tough going against the pale and sickly eastern dudes of Col umbia in the past few years. The Columbia team, peopled with boys who never had even seen a COW, much less thrown or branded ione, and to whom Times Square conSti- tutes the wide, open spaces, kicked the Stanfords twice, and with very little effort. And generally speaking thc Dartmouths are much more rough and ready than the Columbias; their habitat being a land of bould- CTS and snow. s',s-s
 / When a Dartmouth isn't playing football he is skiing, and as anyone who has ever jumped off the side of g mountain with nothing but pol ished chair rockers on his feet knows, skiing calls for a full measure of courage and hardness. A man who has jumped of a mountain certainly isn't going to let a little thing like a tackle bother him.
 For the prestige of eastern foot ball it is to be hoped that Dart mouth wins. Without having seen either team play I think Dartmouth will. If it doeSn't-well, I've been in the state three days now which is al- most long enough to entitle me to call myself 8 native. son and have full bragging privileges.

UNSECURED UPON TEAM IN GREAT
 GRIDIRON TEST
Pittsburgh Favored to Up- set Perfect Record To-
 day; Fordhann, N.Y.U.
BY CHILES COLEMAN aited Press Stan Correspondent

United Press Stan Correspondent
 Durham, N. C., Nov. 26- (UPl- The largest crowd ever to see football game in the south. 5000 persons, was expected at Duke stad- ium today to watch Dukes lnbeat- en and unscored on Blue Devils play the Pittsburgh Partners.
 Pittsburgh, despite its one defeat this year by Carnegie Tech, was favored slightly. A Duke victory would assure the Blue Devils of invitations to post-season bowl games.
 Duke pinned it's hopes on the Seven Iron Dukes'-a nightly line that hasn't yielded a point to eight opponents-while Pittsburgh's case rested in the arms of the so- called dream backfield" of Curly Stebbins, Marshall Goldberg, John Chickerneo, and Dick Cassiano.
 Each team entered the game with one star performer on the injured list. Pitts Al -Lezouski, first-string guard, is suffering from . leg in- jury and will not start, although coach Jock Sutherland plans to use him later in the game if neces- sarhy.
 Coach Wallace Wade probably won't be able to use Jap Davis, sophomore blocking back who suf- fered dislocated shoulder last week against North Carolina State,
 Pittsburgh defeated Duke 10-G last year, turning two fumbled puntS into a touchdown and field goal.

ARMY FOOTBALL SQUAD l II TO 5. OVER NAVY LADS
Crowdof O2,OOOMay See Service. Football Classic
 Today Lenz Out
BY HENRY SUPER

(UMlted Press Stan COrreSpOndemt)
 Philadelphia, Nov. 26g-- (UP) = Army and Navy, each defeated twice this season, meet today at Municipal stadium in a football game which will make the season a success for one and a failure for the other.
 "A crowd of '1O2,2l0, the largest football gathering of the year, had tickets to see the service elevens clash for the S9th time. Army, with a. higher scoring team than the middies, ruled an 11-5 favorite but 8 Navy victory would not be counted as an upset.
 Both teams arrived in :. Philadel- phia Thursday night but could not practice yesterday because of snow. Early yesterday morning 400 men were in the. huge stadium where Jack Dempsey lost the heavyweight title to Gene Tunney,. cleaning tons of snow from the stands, aiSleS and field. The gridiron was expected to be in good condi dition.. It was covered with taIpaulin during the storm. The forecast for today was warmer with increasing cloudiness..
 As usual, both coaches refused to predict victory. ; .,"
 Lieut.. Hank HardwickE of the Navy said: t.'The team is in fine spirits and Army is going to have it's hands full" Hardwick was wor- ried over the loss of Cliff Lenz, star Navy passer who is out with injur- ieS. -; A. >a
 Capt. Bill Wood said: You can bet the game will be a humdinger." ."
 With the exception of Lenz, both squads were at full strength. Army. with plenty of power in the line and backfield, was expected to depend on a slashing ground attack while the sailors were prepared to strike through the air.
 Army has won 2l games; Navy 14 and three ended in ties.

EAGLES OPPOSE
 PITTSBURGH CLUB

New Haven, November 26 = Louis Trudel, 24-year-old speedster, who led the Chicago Blackhawks to a Stanley Cup triumph last winter, will join the New Haven Eagles in Phila- delphia tonight and will be in the New Haven lineup tomorrow night when the Eagles face the Pittsburgh Hornets at the Arena.
 One of the few American born players in hockey, Trudel has been a leading scorer in the {, National Hockey League since his debut in 1894. In his freshman year in, the big time Louis racked up p points. He scored the same number last year in leading the Hawks drive for the cup; and then added three more in the play-offs. Two of the play off points came in the crucial last game battle with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
 More Help *
 Trudell'S appearance with the Eagles is in line with plans of the parent club, the Montreal CanadienS, to strengthen both clubs. Gus Mem cuso and George Brown. Eagle wings, were recalled to Montreal this week and helped the Flying Frenchmen to gain a tie with the New York Amer jeans on Thursday. Cecil Hart, Ca- nadien boss, informed Coach Pit Lepine today that Trudel will join the Eagles in the Quaker City to- night and there is a possibility that Jimmie Dard or Bob Oracle, high scoring wings, and Red (One man gang) Coupille may also join the Eagles.
 We will be stronger" Lepme said, "as result of these changes. Trudel, Gracie, Ward or Coupille can do g lot to help our club. They are ex- perienced big leaguers and with Ar mand Mondu and Des Smith already in the lineup, they would add the balance we need at this time. Brown and Mancuso have given the Cana idens the lift they needed. think that, Trudel and one or~two' of the other boys will do the same for u"
 The Eagles will remain overnight in Philadelphia; returning to New Haven on Sunday rested for the bruising battle with the Hornets.
