OHIO STATES SOPHOMORB. MAUF0ACK- M'LEMORE PICKS IRISH, OHIO STATE OHIO STATE TO WIN HOLD SPOTLIGHT Henry Says 360,000 Citizens Can't Be Wrong -De- (Continurd from Page Eight) By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Sports Writer COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 1 termfried to make no mistake in my selection of the winner between Ohio State and Notre Dame here tomorrow, I quit a delightful apple- and window-soaping party night, and repaired to my hotel room to figure out the game scientifically. Speaking of my hotel room, I may living in that little rascal the rest of my days, for I have heard the most disquieting rumors of what Columbus Innkeepers plan to charge for their accomodations, now that they have thousands of visitors in their clutches. The figures I heard quoted for the rooms where traveling salesmen usually sleep for $4 and $5 a night sounded like the telephone number of a honey iamb I used to know in Chattanooga.

If true, I may have to set up light housekeeping. But to get back to the game. I pick Ohio State to lick the Notre Dames. Not for scientific reasons, but simply because I don't believe 360.000 Columbus citizens ran be wrong. If the Buckeyes win, exactly how many will be wrong for every man, woman and child In the city believes the Ohios not only can take Notre Dame, but would have a good chance against (a) the Light Brigade, (b) the entire French colonial force, and (c) the ocean at high tide.

To hear them tell it, this Joe" Williams who plays halfback on the team is good nough to whip Notre Dame if he have anything but ten of Governor tree-surgeons, all suffering with pink underbrush, to help him. So riding with Ohio State and Columbus. If I go down, be comforting to go down with an entire city. My other selections, which you might follow if you enjoy the thrill i of being a good loser, follow: PITTSBURG vs. panthers by 14 points or so.

MISSISSIPPI vs. ARMY the Army in a game close as the next second. PIRDUE vs. MINNESOTA Minnesota stays with the undeafted. NAVY vs.

does Princeton. ALABAMA vs. KENTUCKY Alabama is through losing for the season. NORTH CAROLINA vs. NORTH AROLINA STATE North Carolina keeps its record clear.

TEXAS CHRISTIAN vs. BAYLOR-Texas Christian in a scrap between unbeaten clubs. t- SOUTHERN METHODIST U. ft CALIFORNIA vs. U.

C. L. That bunch of Initials. STANFORD vs. SANTA Stanford has too much power.

Also: Dartmouth over Yale; Columbia over Cornell; Northwestern afciver Illinois; Penn over Michigan; Iowa over Indiana; Nebraska over Missouri; Marquette over Iowa State; L. 8. U. over Auburn, Syra- over Penn State; Temple over Michigan State; Washington over Montana; Washington State over Oregon over Pacific. And: Georgia over Florida; derbilt over Georgia Tech; Tennessee over Duke; Colgate over Tulane; Maryland over Virginia; Rice George Washington; Maryland ver Virginia; N.

Y. U. over Buck- Wbell; Cincinnati over Ohio Wesleyan; Ohio U. over Miami and Harvard over Brown. fast-traveling outfit is the choice over Iowa State by several touchdowns.

Kansas big six leader by a somewhat thin margin may be knocked off by Oklahoma Nebraska is the favorite over Missouri. You can pay your money and take your choice in the Southwest. Two of the unbeaten and untied squads, Texas Christian and Baylor, furnish the headline attraction with T. C. U.

the choice Texas has an outside chance to upset another unbeaten array. Southern Methodist. Arkansas looks to have a shade the edge over Texas A. M. The biggest turnout, 22,000, is expected to watch the intersectional affair between Colgate and Tulane at New Orleans.

Colgate figures to win. Raleigh draws the No. I title engagement in Dixie with North tarheels challenged by North Carolina State, with the Tarheels favored. Louisiana State is the choice to beat Auburn in another close match. We like Alabama over Kentucky, Duke over Tennessee Georgia over Florida and Maryland over Virginia by fairly substantial margins.

Most of the far Western furor is concentrated in Las Angeles. Stanford has a score to settle with Santa Clara and should do so. Utah in the Rocky Mountain conference should find the range easily Brigham Young. Colorado University is the choice over Colorado College.
