POSTMAN'S PARAGRAPH Fordham Moves To Third; Duke Holds To Fourth in Weekly Vote By BILL BOM NEW YORK, Oct. 28. If Minnesota and Texas, leaders, in opposite parts of the country and exponents of contrasting types of football, were to meet today their game would end in a tie.

That, at least, is the view of 127 of the country's gridiron experts. Voting in the third Associated Press ranking poll of the year, in which each man lists in order the learns he considers to be the lop ten, they placed the Golden Gophers ol the vVcstern Comerence and the Longhorns of the Southwest in a deadlock at the head of the parade. On a 10-9-8-7-6, scoring basis, each team polled points. Minnesota held the edge in first-place votes, with 60 to 53, but Texas made up for that with more solid support in the secondary positions. The poll also left little doubt of which teams are the consensus favorites in next Saturday's three major battles, each of which already is an assured sellout.

Vindi- Cs.ted by the i-O score in their ranking of Minnesota two notches ahead of Michigan last week, this time the experts make the Gophers a strong choice to continue unbeaten against Northwestern; by rating the Wildcats ninth. Similarly Notre Dame, in sixth place, is given a comfortable margin over Army, rated 14th on four straight victories but probably lacking in manpower to continue its remarkable comeback past this engagement. A closer game, the experts think, be that between all-winning Penn, at eighth place, and undefeated but once- tied Navy, at lllh. Last week's results shuffled the order considerably. and Texas ran one-two the first two weeks and Duke continued in rpurth place.

But Fordham. the East's best, came up from sixth to third. Texas A. from ninth to if tli and Notre Dame from scv- 1 etuh to sixth, while Michigan All Prophet---No Loss MNANS LASSO By Art Krenz GOPHERS HOLE WILDCATS Scared OKLKAXS, Oetfl After had 'I'liillane 'JO-IXhere SaitmUy, (ieorgf (he Tinies-Piea- yune. urdt-nl ()le atiimiius, in the room eon- dropped four notches to seventh.
