Colgate of this season. though. is only shell of what it has been. for the last four or five years. University of Nebraska. which comes east next week to play Rutgers and Penn State. won from South Dakota Saturday, 20 to 0. Michigan seems to be coming through with much better eleven than it has had for some time. Last week it barely was defeated by 1lli- nois. which has been picked by most western experts to win the conference championship. Ohio State still kept its~slate clean in the conference by cking out vic tory over Wisconsin in the last few minutes of play. It begins to APP ship will be fought out again between Ohio. State and Illinois. Despite the strenuous game they played at V. ?. l.. the Maryland squad came back yesterday in as good condition as when they went to Blacks burg. Maryland was unusually sue cessful at V. p. l. with its forward passing game. completing six out of eight tried for a total gain of about IS yards. One pass was grounded and the other intercepted by V. P. L on the latter’s 10-yard line. Two of the best foot ball games in the south are likely to be played between Georgia Tech and Auburn and town. Everybody knows that Georgia Tech and Georgetown have strong elevens. However, what most peopie do not know is that the Alabama polytechnic Institute. known through out most of the south as Auburn. has one of the really good elevens south of the Mason-Dixon line. Saturday it won from Vanderbilt by Sc to in game in which it is said to have shown more offensive power than Georgia Tech did against the same team. Incidentally, A to 0 and Sc to 6 are two real beatings for Wander bilt to receive from elevens in its class.
