NEW YORK, Sept, 17—(United Press.\—Up from the far south a most imposing band of football raid- ers will soon start an invasion of the East and the Middle West that will furnish the most spectacular feature of a most interesting schedule for the big college elevens. The South had a fine representa- tion in the inter-sectional games of the last season, but this year the will have the bulk of the feature iter-sectional conflicts. Thirteen big games are scheduled between the South and the best teams in the Hast and the Midd’e West. Georgia Tech and North Carolina will lead the invaders with two big games each. Notre Dame on the schedule and North Carolina has Yale and Penn State, and certainly those Southern boys cannot be accused of looking for soft spots. Among the other big Eastern games are: Georgia vs. Yale, Centre vs. Pennsylvania, Tennessee against Army, Florida against the Army, A’abama Poly against the Army, Ar- kansas Aggies against the Army, Alabama against Syracuse and Washington & Lee against Wash- ington & Jefferson, Two Southern teams will mingle in the Western conference, Vander- bilt plaving another game with Mich- igan and the Mississipp! Aggies meeting Ilinols. Conflicts between the East and fiddle West are not as numerous as were last season. ‘tre Dame will again be a dig cord in the East, with three fin games against the Army, Princetown and Carnegie Tech.

When Samson came to Germany last summer, an unknown.quantity in German fistic circles, Breiten- straeter took him on as a setup. But Breitenstraeter, to his dismay took the count in the ninth round However, Samson was not granted the title of heavywelght champion otf Germany because, in the first place, he fought ag an American, and the battle was not a title bout. Although Samson, who gained a lot of experience as the sparring partner of Carpentier before his Dempsey fight, does not rank very high among American fighters, he is generally considered the best here. However, fans await this new fight eagerly because since Samson and Breitenstraeter’s last setto Breiten- straecter has developed marvelously.
