 Paul Brown has a terrific outfit at Ohio State, but I'm stringing with the powerful Michigan array which ran over and around Notre Dame. The game in Ohio Stadium is worth walking miles to see.
 The same goes for the Minne- sota-W Wisconsin battle in Camp Ran- dall Stadium. Wisconsin has the H-boys-Hirsch, Harder and Hos- kins in addition to Schreiner and some more, but Bill Daley, Capt.

most elaborate and one of the most
delightful of the year

before the date of the luncheon,
all reservations are taken. That
has already happened, with every
table reserved for this years party
which will take place on Thursday
Of this week at 1890 noon in the
