Harvard should take Virginia, and Carnegie Tech should prevail over New York University, although the Tartans will have to guard against taking the game too lightly. Gophers Roll Along- In the Big Ten section, Minnesota meets Iowa and should have little in this contest that the Tide wants above any, and it will take all the strength of the Green Wave, at a peak much sooner under its new coach, Lowell (Red) Dawson, than many expected, to push back the Red Elephants' attack. Tulane, in Bucky Bryan, has a great performer, and his duel with Riley for individual honors will make the game a great attraction.

6 Branch Rickey and the Cardinals weren't kidding when they said Dizzy Dean will be sold. He'll be peddled down the river to the Reds for players and cash. The deal will be one of the big baseball stories of the winter. But the story behind the Dean deal will make even a bigger story. From a source to the Cardinals ihk ritpr vc I By JOCK SUTHERLAND Head Coach, University of Pittsburgh Seldom have contenders for the mythical national rootball championship dropped by the wayside trouble rolling along.

Chicago doesn't offer Ohio State too much competition, and Northwestern should be able to handle Harry Stuhldreher's improving Wisconsin team, although the Badgers are about due to upset someone's progress. Syracuse journey's to Bloomington to take on Indiana, and it appears that Vic Hanson's Orange is due for another defeat. Michigan State is too fast for Temple, but the game title. The Huskers will have little trouble with Kansas, while Kansas State is expected to jolt Oklahoma to remain undefeated in the Conference. The race on the west coast is narrowing down, and the two favorites.

Southern California and Washington, aren't expected to have much trouble with their opponents of the day California and Stanford, respectively. The closest game on the Pacific Coast will be that between U. C. L. A.

and Oregon, with the latter team favorite. Washington State should not have much trouble with Oregon State. (Copj-rigrht. 1936. SEA Service, Inc.) Auburn and Louisiana State, both undefeated in Southern Conference play, but having ties on their records, battling stiff foes.

Auburn rriist get by Georgia Tech. The Engineers hit a midseason slump, and. unless they can come out of it, Auburn will move a little closer to a sectional title. L. S.

Nothing probably will happen in the Missouri Valley to take away Nebraska's claim to the Big Six Football Results ing the Tigers.

The Deal for the Browns has been virtually completed, with Donald L. Barnes, St.

Louis banker, heading the syndicate which will front for Breadon. In the negotiations loading up to the deal, Rickey has taken an active part, but will have to remain in the background afterwards because the American League is opposed to inter league in the schedules. The way it stacks Hockey Results up, the Irish probably will be favor Alabama-Tulane game in Birmingham. The Crimson Tide may be a slight favorite in this game, chiefly because of the fact that Frank Thomas' team has come on fast since its tie with Tennessee.

Learned one or morale, are the pick over the Wolverines, despite the latter's great intersectional record. Fordham and Purdue get together in New York, and the Ram, because of its great defense, is favored. Columbia and Dartmouth, engage at Hanover. I like Earl Blaik's Dartmouth Indians in this one, although Columbia, despite its losses, is due to get going again. When the Lions get set for any one team, watch out! Holy Cross stacks up against Colgate, and right now Andy Kerr's lateral attack must be given the edge over the Crusaders, who have shown nothing in the way of an offense this season.

In other Eastern games, Yale shouldn't have a lot of trouble with Brown, Princeton's powerhouse i two things which inter-ested me an average fan and I thought they might also interest other average fans. Penn State plays Pitt tomorrow and these notes might come in hand v. To Rebuild Browns William O. Dewitt, vice president of the Cardinals' minor league clubs, will be installed as business manager of the Browns, where his knowledge of the players on the Cardinals' numerous farms will prove invaluable in rebuilding the Browns. The plan is to put new life into the Browns with players obtained from the Cardinals' farms.

Sportsman's Park, where the Cardinals and Browns play, will be equipped with an elaborate lighting system, and each club will play seven night games during the 1937 season. The Browns drew only 92,000 paid customers last season. Rickey believes that the Browns will draw nearly that many in their night games next season. The Cubs and Reds have a deal on the fire which also figures in the Dean sale. Warren C.

Giles, new business manager of the Reds, who formerly was with the Rochester Internationals, one of the Cardinals' farms, is attempting to obtain some of P. K. Wrigley's cash to send on to St. Louis to get Dizzy. Cubs to Get Three The Reds have offered the Cubs about 160 and is five feet nine) amazed me and I asked Johnny Q.

Student, who sat next to me. The answers sort of confirmed CHET SMITH'S argument that there can't be very much wrong with present-day collegiate athletics. Johnny Q. Student tells me FRANK SMITH'S activities consist of reporting for football on Labor Day. After school starts, his week day is classes at 8 a.

football practice at 3 o'clock, then a bite of dinner and studies until midnight. This routine lasts until June each year, because just as soon as football ends, SMITH dons basketball and baseball uniforms. SMITH has been doing that for four years. "SMITH reported to the freshmen coach for fully a week before he was given a uniform. They never heard of him in high school.

Captain CHUCK CHERUNDOLO, the center, sometimes gets angry if others beat him to a tackle. He makes 50 per cent of 'em anyway. "Somehow. I can't help sitting in the stands and rooting for a kid like that FRANK SMITH or any college boy on that order. P.

J. McCarthy." LESTER seems to be too much for Cornell's sophomores, and I'm afraid that Penn State doesn't look as danger ous to Pitt as it did a month ago. Still, this is the game for the Lions, and we have to guard against the situation that prevailed in the game with Duquesne. "First of all.

In some quarteres it is believed that the Cubs-Reds-Cards arranged a triangular dpal when Lon War-neke. Cubs' star pitcher, went to the Cards for Jimmv Collins and Roy Parmelee. The transfer of Dizzy Dean to the Reds and the acquisition of several Cincinnati players by the Cubs may have been arranged at the time of the Warneke deal, but announcement was held up pending completion of negotiations for purchase of the Browns by the Cardinals.
