6 There isn't much "ivy" around New York, unless you include Broadway, which, I am told, is mostly poison. But just the same the big lown goes in for football in generous doses and tomorrow the home towners have a choice of three pretty fair ham-Purdue thing.

Navy 20 West Virginia Georgetown Here Sunday By FRED LANDUCCI A two-hour practice session today was to end the Pittsburgh Hor- neus preparation for their International American Hockey League opener tomorrow night in Cleveland.

Coach Donnie Hughes, following a strenuous workout yesterday, pronounced himself satisfied with physical condition of his squad and said his players were ready. Onville Roulston, defense star, who suffered a skate cut requiring seven stitches in one of the practice games with the Detroit Red Wings, has recovered completely and will be ready for duty tomorrow night. The Hornets will leave here tomorrow morning and after the Cleveland battle both the Pitts-burghers and the Falcons will come here for the local opener Sunday afternoon at Duquesne Garden. All eight teams in the International-American will make their getaway tomorrow night. In the other games, Syracuse goes to Buffalo, Providence to Springfield, and New Haven to Philadelphia.

When the Hornets take the Ice for the first time before a home crowd Sunday afternoon, they will be a colorfully dressed group. This season the Hornets are to be attired in uniforms combining Columbia and. Royal blue and white. Yellow Jackets skaters who do not open their Eastern American League season until Nov. 20 held a light workout yesterday afternoon also.

Fordham wins they're almost sure-pop for the Rose Bowl All I know about football is what see out mere on tne neld every Saturday, and that is mostly the spectacle of some big guy with a ball under his arm running like a thief for the opposite goal. If I knew more about football, if I knew all about those mysterious shifts, multiple wing backs and 6-2-2-1 1 aeienses, woman have been so wrong on Fordham this year. I mean to say, I never would have picked them to lose to South ern Methodist and St. Marys. Nor would I have picked Pittsburgh to beat them by two touchdowns.

Not one after another, anyway. Some where along the line I would have got "hep" to myself. But it turns out in my ignorance I have been doing a good thing. For instance, Jim Crowley, Fordham coach, has just told me that he will be very grateful if I pick Purdue. "You may not know it," says Crowley, "but you are the main spring of my team.

The fellows wait to see whom you pick, then they say, "Well. Williams picks us to lose again. That means we can't miss." Up to now they i us to beat Purdue." 1 While deep in my heart of hearts I am certain Fordham will win. I am resolved to make the sacrifice supreme I pick Purdue by five touchdowns. Besides, Crowley assures me that if Purdue is beaten I will be awarded a varsity letter.

I have never had a varsity letter. Indeed, I have never had a varsity postcard. So much for profundity and scholarly experting. I spent some time with Noble Kizer last night. He is the Purdue coach and.

next to Steve Hannigan, the pride of Lafayette, Ind. I have always been interested in knowing where Noble Kizer got his name. It sounds like an Octavus Roy Cohen character. "That's my square monicker." in- sists the Purdue coach. "What's more, its Noble, Earl Kizer." Kizer was a member of the famous 1924 Notre Dame team of the "Four Horsemen" era.

He was a guard. The linesmen were called the "Seven Mules." I wondered how it felt to go through life being called a mule." Kizer is now married and has two young boys. What did Kizer say to his children when they sat at his feet around the radio of an evening and said, "Daddy, were you a "mule" at Notre Dame?" That could be embarrassing, couldn't it? Noble Earl Kizer elected to laugh this off. Possibly he rejoices in the characterization. Come to think of it, he does have rather long ears at that.

What about those Ford ham linesmen who are now being referred to as "Seven Blocks of Granite?" How would you like to go through life being called a "block of granite?" It certainly is not a high testimonial to the scholastic ex cellence of the university. I should think the good padres of Rose Hill would feel a certain academic re sentment.

There aren't many towns that go along week after week putting on counter attractions in football and this goes for towns that are more traditionally football minded than New York. The truth is some of our citizens are just now beginning to realize the i rence be Joe Williams tween a rolling block and a flying tackle. And I know quite a few who resent the fact that there are no mutuels or books at the games.

It so happens our citizens were not brought tip on the Rockne system. They were brought up on the patronage system, and the six, two and even system. Fordham and Purdue Anyway, we may not know much about football but, when you can get our mind off Gypsy Rose Lee and Discovery, we can show you as much enthusiasfm about blocking and tackling as you will find anywhere. Now you take this Ford- on the nation's leading football scoring 318 points in 1934 at the Crowell'High School. Other schools in the conference have their stars, but none compares with these two.

Arkansas' junior quarterback, Jack Robbins, is a triple-threater who may bear watching. His passing, puting and ball-carrying left the Texas Aggies dizzy last weekend. Baylor's "crooning halfback," Lloyd Russell, is a punter and ballcarrier par excellence, but seldom displays the quick-witted field generalship and passing accuracy of Baugh, or such last year stars as Bobby Wilson and Harry Shuford. "Red" Sheridan and Jud Atchison are powerful, charging backs who account lor themselves in the University of Texas lineup: Rice has its flashy halfback, "Red" Vick-ers, and Buck Friedman, speedy fullback. it If 'Slingin 'Sam 's 'Sad!

Dick Todd, backfleld wizard. Baugh has experience on his side. Ot the great and near-great turned out last year in the Southwest, Baugh alone is left. Gone are Southern Methodist's Bobby Wilson, "tiny mite" bullet runner; giant Truman Spain and hulking Harry Shuford. A senior this year, Baugh still is th? top passer of the Conference, a powerful and accurate punter and an eel at ball-carrying.

Three of his passes resulted in touchdowns against Baylor last Saturday. Even Coach Madison Bell of Southern Methodist and he has good reason to know calls Baugh one of the greatest backs I have ever seen or met." Other teams of the seven-school conference are shooting for Baugh this year, and the Texas Aggies de feated Texas Christian principally bv their tactics of bottling up Baugh. He has been limping from injuries since the season opened.
