Twill Box Wills Ears
In Monday Nights
Bout, Fur Says

Referring to his opponent as q
young punk who don't know any
better Phil FUR today promised
to box frankie Wills ears for him
when they tangle Monday night in
one of three 8-round bouts being
arranged for Turner's Arena.
The pair were introduced from the
ring last Monday night and when
Announcer Jimmy Lake instructed
them to shake hands Wills backed
away with sheer. A feud-a'grudge
flght-was limited. but Fur denied
any such thing today.
Hes just young kid who hasn't
been around and doesn't know what
the score is, I'm not sore at him,
but if he wants to act that way
about it let him go ahead Maybe
he'll change his mind Monday
night" .

Sunday at Griffith stadium, with
Gonzaga and st. John tangling for
the goth time in a feud which may
attract 10000 spectators
The Catholic prep school foes, who
through the years have whipped up
an intense interest in their annual
engagement, will enter the argument
with almost identical records against
common foes. but with Gonzaga
earning an edge due to st. Johns
crippled status.
st. Johns will be minus the spear

Augusterfer planning to use the
rugged Frank Cady only on field

was responsible for the Cadet vic

kotre Dome is Facing
Thorn -Strewn Rood

From now on Notre Dame, after
six rough afternoons, all winning
ones, has the hard part of the path
way ahead.
This means an up-ard- coming
Iowa team with the brilliant Nile
Kinnick-lt means a vastly improved
Northwestern team with Bill De
Correvont sparkling once more. After
that it means the poWerhouse from
Southern California.
It would be something approach
Ing miracle for Elmer Layden to
jump this triple hurdle. 1t can be
done. but the odds are heavy the
other way.
Along the same road Cornell has
at least two hard games, with Dart
mouth and Pennsylvania. If the
big red team can get by Colgate,
Dartmouth and Penn it will belong
as close to the top as you can shove
a squad in the final adding up.
For all that, Cornell has much
better chance to remain united and
unbeaten than has Notre Dame.
Tennessee and Texos Aeeies
Pack Most Power
November is slipping along. My
guess now is that in the way of
manpoWer and all-around team
strength the two best teams are
Tennessee and Texas A. and M.
Southern California and Oklahoma
are extremely close. I'm speaking
of squad power.
These four have all that it takes.
I believe Tennessee is a sure thing.
But I also thought Michigan would
beat Illinois.
The main barrier for Texas A.
and M. is S. M. U. this week. The
tough spot for Oklahoma is Mis-
souri,. The hot market for South
ern California is U. c. L. A. in De-
cember.
This has been a peculiar season.
For example, little Columbia after
a hard year, with Stanzcyck, its
star, injured and out, looked much
better against Cornell than Ohio
State did. Illinois, that couldn't
score on Bradley Tech, beats Michi-
gan.
My guess is that by the end of
November the four top teams will
be Tennessee, Texas A. and NJ
Southern California and Oklahoma
with Cornell, North Carolina and
Tulane close up. I don't think
Tulane will be headed, while North
Cardinals rough spot will be Duke
The game today is full of rough
spots-ask Michigan-ask Cornell
ask Notre Dame-anyone else. This
country is loaded with over 10000
pretty good football players of about
the same size, speed and weight
when It's all combined.

The

Unbeoten, United Teams
Not Necessarily Best
By GRANTLAND RICE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 8 (N.AN.AD.
The time has arrived when we
have to consider the case, among
the upper brackets, of the united
and the unbeaten. This is largely a
matter of the highway that waits
on ahead-of the opposition they
have to meet.
This list includes Tennessee, Notre
Dame, Texas A. and NJ. Cornell, Du-
quesne and Catholic U.
This doesn't mean they are the
six best football teams in the coun-
try. 1t doesn't mean they could
step out and whip Oklahoma
Southern California, U. c. l.. A.,
North Carolina, Dartmouth or Tu-
lane. Or Michigan.
1t simply means they have beaten
the roulette W>~sl and have run the
gantlet-so far. 1t means class
plus the breaks.
But the season isn't over vet.
November" Elmer Layden told me,
lis the real upset month, especially
for those teams that have played
tough schedules. Then suddenly,
tired and battered, they are ready
for the big flop. The schedule makes
q terrific difference"
Here are their remaining sched-
uleS:
Tennessee-Th Citadel, Wander
bllt, Kentucky, Auburn.
Notre Dame-IoWa, Northwestern.
Southern California.
Texas A. and M-Southern Meth
odist, Rice, Texas.
Cornell - Colgate, Dartmouth,
Pennsylvania.
Duquesne-N. c. State, Carnegie
Tech, Detroit.
Catholic U.-St. Anselm, Loyola
IN. o., st. Joseph's, L. I. U.
The surest bet here is Tennessee,
still the best squad in the country.
Texas A. and M. is the next, With
S. M. U. to handle. Cornell has
two rough afternoons against Dart
mouth and Penn-maybe l don't
believe Notre Dame can stand of
Southern California and I don't be-
lleve Duquesne can beat Carnegie
Tech
No Such Thing
As National Champion
There can be no such thing as a
national football champion. They
play too many different ty pes of
schedules. Teams that play one
tough game after another are at a
big disadvantage against teams that
have breathers every other week.
The Pacific Coast Conference, or
rather their supporters, resent my
statement that the Rose Bowl
doesn't pick the strongest teams.
Two years ago California named
Alabama, the third best team in the
South. Last year Southern Cali
fornla named Duke, the third or
fourth best team-after Tennessee,
7. C.. U. and Oklahoma, which were
stronger than either Southern Cali
fornia or Duke.
So far as the Rose Bowl game is
concerned there are various COM
plications this year. AS rule the
West Coast champion is named
around December /. But en- this
occasion Southern California ard
U. c. L. A. play one of the season s
most decisive games on December 9,
On the same day Tennessee meets
Auburn-in case Tennessee happens
to have Rose Bowl leanlnes.
Last fall the Pacific Coas; refused
to name Tennessee because the
Volunteers were playing Mississippi
on December 3. At least that was
the reason advanced. Now the
complications are doubled
Also, there is much less chance
of Auburn beating Tennessee than
there is of U. G. L. A stopping the
Trojans. However, after the recent
1llinois-Michigan episode there is
no set feeling of deep contentment
In any unbeaten breast.

MUSIC DIRECTOR
ADDRESSED CLUB
TUESDAY EVENING
STONE CHURCH SERVICE Or
CANIZATION HEARD r. b.
KLEBSATTEL ON DOES MU-
SIC HAVE ANY VALUE?"
(By CLUB REPoRTER)

Stone Church Service Club
met Tuesday night with Charles
H. Ketchum, president, presiding.
Allan Hampton introduced T.
B. Klebsattel as speaker of the
evening. Mr.. Klebsattel chose as
his subject for discourse, Does
Music Have, Any Practical Val
ue?". slh'e
In his address, the speaker
said, What America needs is
more bum music. In this he made
it plain that "bum. music" was
better than no music at all; that
most all musicians played "bum
music" before they played the
better type, and while groups of
young people were together max
ing bum music" they were not
in some devilment.
The jazz came as a result of
the Great War, Mr.. Klebsattel
pointed out. The people played
it and listened to it as a relief
from worry. The effect of the
depression following the War
took its toll from classical mu-
sic, the speaker said. From
crashes and business failures,
men and women had more lei
sure time and took up avoca-
tons in music which proved in
teresting and remunerative.
AS a result of this, Mr.. Kleb-
sattel said, there are more than
sveen hundred symphony orches-
tras in America today as COM
pared with less than one hum
dred ten years ago.
IF one does not earn money
from his musical work., the high
school musical director said, "the
social advantages are great.
Mr.. Klebsattel stated that more
people today are earning a living
through music than anything ex-
cept school teaching. He brought
out that many factories had in
troduced music through the aid
of loud speakers to their en-
ployes and had stepped up pro-
duction from seven to ten per-
cent.
In closing his address, the mu-
sic director said that the aims of
public school music was ID ap-
probation through participation;
(2) practical value in choosing
vocation or advocation, and 90
it's value in breaking monotony,
relieving tenseness and stepping
up the work in other subjects.
