NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Thankful
that nothing can be worse than last
weeks debacle. this football corner
offers the following more or less
well-chosen comments on this weeks
program.
Notre Dame Minnesota: The
Irish" with a wealth of backfield
material and hard bitten line, have
been rated along perfectly. They
may be overdue for fall. especially
when called upon to meet such
rugged opposition, but this corner
strings with Notre Dame.
Tennessee Vanderbilt: Tennessee
appears headed straight for the
Southeastern Conference crown. On
paper, the Vols look safe enough,
but Vanderbilt probably will play its
best game and make it exceedingly
close. Tennessee.
Cornell-Dartmouth: The 'ivy
league" natural of the season, Cor
nell power versus Dartmouth speed.
The favorite will be Dartmouth, but
tAlC lIullS1l Gays SOlIlSll.
Texas Christian Texas: More long
faces for Texas Longhorns. TIC. U.
Washington-Southern California:
Washington is coming along fast
now but Southern California gets
the nod in the expectation that the
Trojans won't fall off too far after
their upset of California.
Duke Over Syracuse.
SyracuSe-Duke: Syracuse's season
probably ended last week with the
defeat of Colgate. Even if it hasn't,
Duke, one of the country's strongest
defensive arrays, is the choice.
Fordham- North Carolina: Ford
ham, but the Rams will have to bat
tie.
Nebraska Pitt: Even with Gold
berg out, Pitt seems to have too
much stuff for inexperienced Ne
braska to handle.
Oklahoma Missouri: The spot for
an upset if Missouris Paul Christ
man plays up to form. Out of the
hat, Oklahoma.
Princeton-Yale: Yale seems more
resourceful and gets this faint
hearted ballot.
Holy Cross Brown: Holy Cross fig
ures to wear down the Bruins and
win, handily.
New York University Colgate:
Possibly an extremely close one.
Colgate.
Carnegie-Duquesne: The con-
querors of Pitt will have to fight off
a letdown as well as Duquesne. An
uncertain vote for Carnegie.
Columbia Navy: The coin spins
and says-Columbia
HarvardVirginia: Harvard.
Georgetown Is Choice.
Penn-Penn State: Always danger
GUS but picking Penn.
Temple-Vila Temple has lit
tie luck with Villanova and doesn't
figure to get anything but beating
here.
West Virginia Georgetown: TAX
ing Georgetown.
Northwestern: Man the
lifeboats. A crucial Big Ten game
on which it's useless to try to "ex-
pert Michigan.
Illinois-Ohio State: Not much
choice but the nod goes to Ohio
State.
Indiana Iowa: It's long wait be-
tween touchdowns for these two.
Indiana.
Marquette Michigan State: Tough
enough but State rates the call.
Kansas State-Iowa State: Very
close. Iowa State to squeeze through.
Georgia Tech-Alabama: On the
records, Alabama.
Kentucky Clemson: Possibly close,
but the nod goes to Clemson.
Tulane-Georgia: Tulane.
Florida-M Maryland: A shot in the
dark, Florida.
North Carolina State-Detroit:
Time for the Wolfpack to have q
little luck. N. c. State.
S. NJ. U.-Arkansas Tough.
Davidson-V. M. l.: V. M. I. looks
too strong.
Southern Methodist Arkansas:
Eenie, meenie :. Arkansas.
Texas A. and M.-Rice: Tough to
figure but Rice seems on the way
back and gets the nod.
California Oregon: California
ought to get back on the track.
Oregon State-Stanford: A flyer
on Oregon State
Santa Clara-St. Mary's: Santa
Clara. narrowly.
