    GRID UPSETS ON HOLIDAY NEW YORK, Nov. 25.--Thanksgiving day victories gave Colgate the best final record of any major eastern football team and awarded Southern California the Pacific coast title, leaving only the southern and southwestern championships to be decided before the season closes next week. Colgate, one of the few major teams in football history to finish its season undefeated, united and unscored against, topped the East ern list by overwhelming the hitherto unbeaten, united Brown Bears at Providence, 21–⁠0. The Southern California Trojans nailed up the Pacific coast flag by pounding through to a 90 win over Washingtons strong eleven while U. C. L. A., the other conference contender, lost its title chance by bowling to Washington State 80. After these triumphs Andy Kerr’s Colgate Red Raiders and Howard Jones’ Trojans are generally regarded as the most likely opponents for the Pasadena Rose Bowl game New Years day. The Southern conference race was reduced to a two team affair when Vanderbilt’s unbeaten Com modores were engulfed by Alabamas Crimson Tide, 300. This leaves Auburn, which had an open date, leading, and Tennessee still in the running after its impressive 26–⁠0 win over Kentucky. Texas retained its chance of tying for the southwest title by defeating the Texas Aggies 21–⁠0, while the conference leader, Texas Chris tian, had an open date. The Chris tians will win the crown if they wallop Southern Methodist Saturday. A minor upset occurred in turkey days big traditional game when Pennsylvania beat Cornell 1877.
