NEW YORK. Nov. 25.-Maybe you
thought the football season was
about finished-and maybe you're
about right-but in either event
some of the choicest morsels remain
to be fed to the fans.
Not out of bowls" either, because
at least half a dozen of the Nations
foremost undefeated teams still
must risk their precious necks in
regularly scheduled encounters.
Four such games, topped by the
Pittsburgh Duke business at Dur
ham, are on tomorrow's menu, COM
peting with the pageantry of the
otherwise meaningless Army Navy
spectacle.
Texas Christian faces a dangerous
Southern Methodist crew in the
Southwest Conference. All bars are
down, too, on the Oklahoma Uni
versity tussle with Oklahoma A. and
M. and Texas Techs appointment
with Marquette.
All of these foemen have been
more or less reticent about their
post-season plans. but in spite of
denials that they care about invi-
tations, Duke, Pitt and Texas
Christian all are glowing prospects
for any bowl and tomorrow activi-
ties may determine in which direc-
ton each will entrain, if at all.
Other Games Attract.
The second section of this weeks
football supplement is spotted with
other attractive offerings-some of
them so traditional as to make an
old blue turn red
Georgia Tech and Georgia. Ford
ham-N. Y. u. Washington WASH
ingtor State, Oregon-Oregon State,
Baylor Rice, Louisiana State-Tu-
lane, Florida Auburn and Boston
College-Hol Cross all fall into this
class.
The days long-distance prize, no
matter what the score, will go to
the Dartmouth-Stanford rally at
Palo Alto, Calf.
After the echoes of this shouting
have faded away. fans still will have
Notre Danes annual skirmish with
Southern California, Tennessee's
Southeastern Conference contest
with Mississippi and Oklahoma's
tilt with Washington State to whet
their interest-besides a sprinkling
of other games right up until the
big New Year Day blow-off.

Southern California made a 70.
bust bid for the right to represent
the Pacific Coast in the Rose Bowl
by routing the University of Cali
fornia at Los Angeles, ~ to Z. after
the Uclans took a TO lead in the
first period. The Trojans are tied
with California for the Coast crown,
but hold a victory over the Bears.
Tennessee. still with a game to 60,
clinched its Southeastern Confer
ence championship by trampling
Kentucky, 46 to 0.
Cornell slid into the Ivy Leage
upper berth on a scoreless tie with
Pennsylvania, played be-
fore 10000.
Cornell several times marched
well into Penn territory but the
Quakers gallant line rose to each
occasion. Just when the Penn
forward wall seemed certain to fall
to pieces, it frightened up to end
Big Red marches, and in the closing
the Quakers drove 81 yards
with aerials to Cornell's %, where
the final whistle sounded.
Winnie Eichler, Harold McCul-
Tough and George Peck gave the
Penn line terrific pounding, which
it took and came back for more,
with Capt. Walter Shinn a bulwark
on the Quaker defense all through
the muddy battle. The Quakers
were a distinct credit to the first
year of George Munger's coaching
at Penn.
