  &alass6|ian9& &s6in& Football Roundup 1 NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-lR-There will be other college football games in the country today, but most of the attention will be focused on the battle of the behemoths-Notre Dame and Tulane. The Irish, tied only twice in their past 3l games, will rule a two touchdown favorite when they step on the turf at South Bend, Ind. Tulane has captured 12 straight since losing its first game of the 1948 season. Only thing certain is that the ranks of the major unbeaten and united elevens will be depleted Notre Dame and Tulane are among the 18 major teams which boast perfect records. Tulsa dumped Villanova out of the select circle last night with a stunning 21–⁠19 upset triumph. BIG TEN PROGRAM The Big Ten has a good program featured by the clash between Min nesota and Ohio State. The chances are good that the victor in this one will come out on top in the conference. Michigan, upset victim of Army last week, will be out to reinstate itself at the top of the heap at the expense of Northwestern. Indiana takes on Iowa in another Big Nine encounter. In the east, most of the attention will te centered on the Ivy League. The top attraction will pit Cornell against Yale, Army should have no trouble knocking off Harvard, which has yet to win game. ON PACIFIC COAST On the Pacific Coast, California, present favorite to take Conference honors, goes in against Southern California. If the Bears can over come Southern Cal, they would only have to beat UCLA to virtually clinch top honors. Stanford, upset last week by UC- LA and Michigan’s victim the Sat- urday before, meets underdog Washington at Seattle in a game the weatherman says will be play ed in the rain. Other Pacific Coast Conference games include Washington State at Idaho and Montana at Oregon State. The top southern game of the day will pit North Carolina, the nations sixth-ranking team-and undefeated- against Wake Forest, which so far has been a disappoint- ment.
