BALTIMORE, Nov. 10.-A trio o,

carry Cornell's hopes for an upset
victory over Navy here tomorrow
but grid experts consider those hopes
slim at best
Allan Dedekbrun, perhaps Cor

none Of these is considered in clas,
with Navy's Bob jenkins, Clyde
Scott, Bill Barron or the rest of the
Tars' ample supply. Cornell's backs
are supposed to be fast, but Navy
has enough 10-second men to field
an entire backfield of this variety.
Cornell's line will be outweighed
by Navy. George Williams scale:

Reserves 10 Face Irish
After Cadet Varsity
Starts Contest
BY HARoLn CLAAssEN.
Associated Presa Sports Writer.

WEST POINT, N. Y, Nov. TO-
The shock troop system, an idea
that helped Knute Rockne guide
Notre Dame to the gridiron heights,
comes back to haunt the Irish in
tomorrows annual clash with Army
In New York City's Yankee Stadium
1t. Col. Earl Blaik, head coach Of
the all-winning Cadets. said today
he would continue his two-team
plan and that the upper classmen's
varsity with Doug Kenna at quar-
terback would start against the
Irish. In the second quarter an en-
tire new team, mostly plebes, win
take the field.
Lombardo TO Direct Plebes.
This aggregation has Capt. Tom
Lombardo at quarter, Felix Doc)
Blanchard at fullback, Glen Davis
as one of the halfbacks and up front
has Barney Poole at one end, Dewitt
Coulter at a tackle and Herschel
Fusion at center.
The only changes in those plans
will come If Army kicks OF. Then
Blanchard will toe the ball and trot
to the sidelines until his plebe mates
are sent into the fray. Bobby Dodds,
fullback on the upper classmen
team, likely won't start because Of q
leg injury and his place will be
taken by Dean Granddaughter, the
ex-Ohio Slater and erstwhile right
half on the plebe OUTFIT.
Dick Walterhouse, place-kicking
specialist from Michigan. inherits
Sensanbaugher's old duties.
While Blanchard, Davis and some
of the other Army backs have been
attracting the headlines, 1t is Tom
Lombardo who gets the pats on the
back from the Army coaches.
Cadets In New York Today.
There Is little II any difference
between Lombardo and Kenna in
ability or generalship," said Blaik,
but we thought that the plebes
would steady down and be more
relaxed knowing that the player
calling their signals was the team
captain. Technically. suppose that
Lombardo, our captain, should be in
the starting lineup, but he has
given up that honor to help the
team in a much greater way"
The Cadets were to leave at noon to-
day and will work out in Yankee Sta
dium at 2 pm. The civilian MEM
bers OF Notre Danes squad will ar
rive IN Gotham sometime today and
will spend the night at Bear Noun
tain, N. Y. The Irish Via players,
whose absence from their campus
Is restricted to 48 hours, won't reach
