D—4 Selecting FEW TEAMS LOOM CERTAIN WINNERS Brisk Battling ‘Is Likely in Many Foot Ball Games Listed Tomorrow. BY WALTER TRUMBULL. EW YORK, November 13.— Columbia should win from Brown, Pennsylvania should beat Georgia Tech, Lafay- ette should have little trouble with Penn State and Notre Dame should just about massacre Navy. But most of the other games in which Eastern teams are engaged are the type which drives the dopesters to flipping coins. Take the Harvard-Holy Cross game. If the Crimson ended its season with this contest, it would be the heavy choice. But Harvard plays Yale the following week. It would like to beat Holy Cross, but the Yale game is marked *must’ in every Cambridge coach’s mind. Harvard May Play Safe. Moreover, the Blue having no ganie scheduled, Harvard will not wish to exhaust any of its first-string men and take the chance of their starting tired against fresh opponents. If under the circumstances the Crimson wins from both Holy Cross and Yale, it_will be hailed as a truly great team. Harvard at ‘ull strength should win. Army and Pittsburgh are due for an- other great struggle. The only points scored against Notre Dame this season were scored by Pitt. Yet Army should be in pretty good shape for this game and m&ht pull out a victory. There is scarcely an easy game to pick in the entire lot. Take, for ex- ample, New York University and Ford- ham. Most persons, we think, will pick Fordham. New York has just played hard games with Oregon and Georgia, and has lost them both. Last season Fordham won by a scare of 7-0. That is the reason that we think New York may have a shade. It is the same per- centage which beat the Athletics in the ‘world series. Teams coached by Meehan rarely lose three straight games, New York, to our mind, has the psychological edge. ‘We might be all wrong about this, cause Fordham looks the stronger on paper. The Rams have lost one game in More Tough Ones. And How are you going to pick a winner in such contests as those tween Syracuse and Colgate, George- town and West Virginia, Carnegie and Temple? It all depends upon the breaks in the game. Colgate has formed a habit of beating Syracuse, but this season Syracuse has a stronger team than usual. Villanova meets a strong team in Detroit, but the latter eleven has some injuries, which may make a difference. Both teams play the same general type of game. Lafayette should beat Penn State. Lafayette has shown strength all year, while State has had a rather bad sea- son. Union should beat Hamilton; Buffalo Jooks a bit strong for Hobart; s should trim Bowdoin, and Gettysburg is the choice in its contest with M lenberg.

BY DAN McGAGIN, (Vanderbilt Coach.) ASHVILLE, Tenn., November 13.—1I suppose I have been asked hundreds of times to ve my guess on the ° Georgia - Tulane outcome Saturday. Most of the Vanderbilt players think Tulane will win. How- ever, we played a much better de- fensive game against Georgia. Our offense was not as well organized, due to injuries, but we did play & much better defensive game. Both Georgia and Tulane are un- usually skillful with the pun game. Both are in the habit of playing a close defense and are sus- ceptible to the disadvantage of good Alexandria Notes ALEXANDRIA, Va., November 13.

By the Assoclated Press. HICAGO, November 13.—Judge Walter P. Steffen, Carnegle Tech’s “commuting” foot ball coach, will join the “second- guessers” at the end of the 1931 grid- iron season. Steffen, who for 18 seasons has di- rected the Skibos in battle, last night announced, at the University of Chi- cago's annual foot ball banquet, that he would resign at the end of the cam- paign, “become a Maroon fan and sit the stands with the \‘second-guessers. “Foot ball coaching is a tough game, Steffen, who has hurried out of Chicago for Pittsburgh, or wherever Carnegie was scheduled to play, on Priday night before games, “and I have had enough in the past 18 years. times I have decided in the middle of & season that it would be my last. Always I re- considered, but this time I mean it.” Judge Since 1923. Steffen has served as a Cook County circuit jut since 1923 and his pre: ent term will expire in 1934. He leav Chicago in time to reach the place where Carnegie Tech is due to play the next day, and makes his plans just be- fore the battle. While he is dispensing justice in Chicago during the week, Robert Waddell, a Bucknell graduate, drills the Skibos. He ‘plnym his foot ball at the Univer- sity of Chicago in 1906-07-08 under Amos Alonzo Stagg, and was named on the late Walter Camp's sll-America teams in his last two_seasons.
