 Fourteen are holdover from the succIssful 1945 season in which the Ellis again captured the big three championship, while the remaining 19 are youths who played for Yale during the l94244 seasons and then entered service.
 Odell pointed out that this back log of lettermen is situation which generally prevails throughout the country. It's quite possible he said, that many of the returned lettermen at the various colleges will find it difficult to win even varsity squad berths during the

New York, Aug. I5-(UP)-Skip- ping blithely over the next two months with their pennant races and the World Series, a long dis tance look at the Autumn sports scene indicated today that college football will be back as big as ever with little change among the old favor1tes.

 Army To Find It Tough
 The Cadets from up the Hudson could, of course, on precision and general strength, once again provide the team of the year. But Army's eleven, urbeaten for two consecutive years, will find 1t much tougher than in 1914 and '45. Gone are such StandoutS as Dewitt Coulter, Al Ne metz and Captain Johnny Green. The touchdown twins, Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard, give Army a good start, however, with the only real stumbling blocks being Mich lgan and Notre Dame.
 Penn should come off second best in the East, with a power-packed squad. while Navy apparently has lost too many stars to do better than third. Columbia and Yale will be the darkhorses. -..~.
 In the South it's Alabama all the way with an overflow of veterans and the famed Harry Gilmer. L.S.U. looms as the chief threat in the southeastern conference with oppo- sition, also, from Tennessee, Georgia Tech and Tulane. North Carolina appears the class of the Southern Conference with Duke as the chief rival.
 Texas Chief Brawlers
 As always, the Southwest will pro- vide a dogfight and the chief brawlers may be Texas, the Texas AggIeS and T,C.U. and outside the circuit there's Oklahoma A. & M. looking better than ever unless Bob Fenimore finds himself in khaki.
 Notre Dame looks as of yore with service men roaring home. These include such standouts as Garry Cowhig, Jim Mello and Johnny Lu- jack while Bob Kelly steams back from Annapolis Without actually any monetary meaning, one promi- nent alumnus reports gleefully that the pros are back and the alumni can come out of it's subway hiding" Army is the chief target.
 The Big Ten race looks wide open with Michigan and Indiana right in the thick of it against such favored rivals as Ohio State, Purdue and Illinois. Michigan gave Army it's toughest game in the past two years and, showing it's added power, hopes to dump the Cadets. Indiana, the defending champ, lost George Talia- fero but gets back Bobby Hoern- 'chemeyer.
 Scrap Looms In Big Six
 A real scrap looms in the Big Six md you have to have a favorite to pick among Missouri, Kansas, Ok ahoma and Nebraska. The same | exists in the Big Seven ace, where Colorado, Denver and Utah look tops.
 Southern California is gunning to 'et back in the Rose Bowl and will 'e praying for return match with Alabama. The Trojans want revenge nd that may spark them home over uch power-packed rivals as U.C.L.A. Oregon and Oregon State, ranked as heir chief rivals in the Pacific
