The Original Naturalization

The Original Man-in- Motion
After sinking William and Mary.
West Virginia and Lafayette with
out trace. Navy gets its first
real test when IL tackles we'll
drilled Cornell In Baltimore, Oct
Is.
Navy II the choice. The Midship-
men easily may have the finest
team in the country.
Cornell lacks the offense II has
boasted the past several cam
paigns. but II will be interesting
To see what the four-ocean fleet
does against . tight defense.
Army il vastly improved under
Red Blaik, but in the battle in the
Bowl lean to the Yale club which
spotted Virginia 10 points and
came on to win in the second half
and which twice scored on q very
formidable Pennsylvania outfit In
the second half.
Against Harvard and Yale. Penn
demonstrated that il has too much
power for Princeton at Palmer
Stadium.
GEORGIA OVER COLUMBIA
Georgia permitted Mississippi to
obtain 4 i<-point lead in the third
period, and vet was good enough
to earn a tie. The Bulldogs had
better not give Columbia any such
bulge at Baker Field. New York,
but the nod must go TO Athens
numbers.
In other New York games. Ford
ham figures to really get rolling
against West Virginia and New
York University 10 In for another
rough afternoon at the hands of
Syracuse.
I'm giving Andy Tomasic and
Temple a shsky vote against Penn
State in Philadelphia.
Any club capable of turning
back Colgate must be given
margin over Harvard. 20 the Dart
mouth Indians should scalp the
Johnnies on their home lot.
Tulane and Clemson took much
steam out Of Boston college, hut
the Eagles are too big and swift
for Manhattan nj Fenwsy Park.
Georgetown appears too large
for George Washington. but this
one IL always a dog fight. and 20
II will be at Griffith Stadium the
night Of Oct. IL.
COLGATE AGAINST DUKE
Colgate isn't going to continue
to tumble as II did against Dart
mouth. but / doubt that the Red
Raiders will get over the jugger-
naut Wallace Wade has created at
Duke.
It's Jack Wilson and Baylor over
tricky viilanova in Philadelphia
the night Of Oct. IT.
Mississippi. back on the right
track after being edged by George
town In = game II should have cap
tured. seems q bit too well bal
anced for Holy Cross In Worcester.
l have q bunch that Indiana.
after a Disappointing start. should
get going against a good Nebraska
outfit in Lincoln.
Michigan State surprised in re-
polling Marquette, but the Spar
tsns are unlikely TO meet with
such good fortune against Santa
Clara in San Francisco. Marquette
should get even at the expense OF
kansas In Milwaukee.
Rice. which surprisingly shaded
smashing Tulane. 1913. must be
rated ahead Of louisiana State In
Baton Rouge. Southern Methodist
shouldn't have much trouble with
Auburn in Birmingham.
Though many good judges be-
lieve Michigan In even better bali
snced than it was with Tom Hsr-
mon and Forest Evashevski in the
bsckfield. my offside prediction is
that the Northwestern steam
roller will prevail in titanic
struggle in Evanston.
Ohio State is little bit too well
supplied with everything for Pur-
due in Columbus.
Iowa gives Wisconsin another
headache In Madison. Minnesota
has n comparative breather In
Pittsburgh In Minneapolis. Carne-
gle Tech has no business In Pitt
Stadium with Notre Dame.
A high class Missouri array
takes Iowa State pretty much in
stride at Ames.
Oklahoma should outstsgger
Kansas State at Manhattan.
In Southwestern Conference en-
gagements. Texas A. and NJ. is
favored over Texas Christian in n
thriller in Fort Worth.
Alabama figures to successfully
