Great passing combination of zeke Bratkowski to Harry Babcock makes Bulldogs a dangerous opponent. Jim Tatum. Maryland coach, says Georgia is 100 per cent improved over team Mary land beat. 43–⁠7, on one of its best days last season. NAVY-Middies have thumped Yale, $40. and Cornell, 31–⁠7, and while they probably haven’t been playing much. their defensive rec ord is phenomenal. Between them, Yale and Cornell gained only eight yards on the ground. Navy meets William and Mary this week and the talk at Annapolis is that Navy can beat Maryland. LSU-After a 1914 walloping at the hands of Texas, LSU lost to Alabama in a thriller and then dumped Rice. 27–⁠7, in role of two-touchdown underdog.

The words hardly were out when Ole Miss, which smothered Memphis State, 54–⁠6, in its opener, was tied 13-all by Kentucky. Last week the Rebels came back to beat Auburn, POT. ALABAMA-Bobby NARROW is supposed to lead the Crimson Tide on the comeback trail. To date they have a perfect record with 20–⁠6 victory Mississippi Southern, 21–⁠20 over LSU and 21–⁠7 over Miami. That Mississippi Southern score is unimpressive, but the latter trounced Tampa, a good little team. 52–⁠35, last week end, and may not be a pushover. Bama plays VPI this week and most surely will take an unbeaten record against Tennessee, after which more will be known of its potential.
