Ivy decoratess the Thanksgiving
football platter today with Cornell
and Pennsylvania tangling in a
toss-ups game atsPhiladelphia for
the Eastern Leagae championship.
The joust between the once
beaten Big Red from high above
Cayuga's waters and the thrice
trounced Quakers headlines a
scattered program of traditional
tiffs launching the last big week
of college hostilities, and one that
promises a pack of thrills.
BY Saturday night most of the
bowl people-Pasadena's Rose ex-
cepted-will be scrambling around
for talent. BY Sunday the big
bowls should be filled.
OF the major ones, the Rose
Bowl is set with California and
Ohio State while the Orange Bowl
at Miami has half of its program
In Santa Clara, the others want
TO look around some more. y
Two of the main Saturday at
fractions, however, will be COM
pletely devoid of bowl interest.
Army Risking Perfect Season.
Army's lofty legions will risk
their perfect season record against
hard-to-convince Navy at Phila-
delphia with the President among
the some 100000 attending pro-
ceedings.
Notre Dame. the nations top-
ranked eleven. will entertain
Southern California at South
Bend.
Navy and Southern Cal Jared
the football world by holding
these same two terrors to draws
at the fag end of last season, the
only splotches on the Cadet and
Irish escutcheons.
Bowl scouts will be watching
particularly games Saturday at
Houston. where Rice meets Bay
lor for the Southwest crown, and
at Tulane, where Henry Frnka S
high-test Greenies bid for a Sugar
Bowl berth in a clash with Louisi-
ana State, an old and formidable
foe.
The Rice-Baylor winner auto
matically goes into the Cotton
Bowl at Dallas. The loser may
hand in the Miami attraction.
Bowl scouts also will be in the
stands at Miami, Fla. Friday
night when Kentucky and the
University of Miami bump heads
The winner is a good bet to land
one of the postseason plums.
As both the Big Nine and the
Pacific Coast Conferences wound
lup their schedules last week, most
| of Saturdays other offerings Of
any Importance concern Southern
teams. Oklahoma, the Nations
No. 8 outfit behind Notre Dame
and California. is not expected to
find the Oklahoma Aggies very
tough to take at Norman.
Tulane, L. S. q. Set for War.
An explosion which should
shake houses for miles around will
take place at New Orleans. Tulane,
having recovered gamely from its
mid-season mauling at South
Bend, smashes into a powerful
Louisiana State team. with a rich
Sugar Bowl bid probably at stake.
Louisiana State. though an in
and-outer, still Is the only club to
have beaten Rice and nothing
would please the boys from Baton
Rouge more than to hang one On
Tulane. This one might just pos
sibly get rough toward the end.
Other top games on the
schedule:

Brown, Duauesne at Chattanooga, College
