'iL7 0- 11 Er D'''''''-': 0 IN FM GT Sun-Telegraph Consensus of Predictions on Leading Football Games IT WOULD BE difficult to imagine anything in foot. ball nearer to a tossup than tomorrow's local battle between Duquesne and Carnegie Tech appears to be, on paper.

All that you can anticipate with i any degree of assurance is one of the hardest and most closely fought games I 2: seen in this sector in many a blue 1 moon. The outcome is up to the fates 4 and the breaks. 1' 'k Originally, the dope indicated a slight edge for Duquesne by virtue of a stronger offensive. The Dukes apAT4- peared to have and still do for that matter, more of a punch. This is assuming that Clipper i Smith's attack won't lose its teeth i against the Tech defense.

There's no discounting the strength of the latter. Mal Stevens, New York University BOYD BRUMBAUull coach, rates it as comparable to Ford-Dukes' Backfield Edge ham's in stubbornness. In Carnegie's last five games, such strong teams as Michigan State, Holy Cross, Purdue and New York University were able to make only one touchdown apiece, and Temple could not score at all. But Duquesne's defense has not been exactly a sieve, either. It repulsed even the power of Pitt.

In seven games it has been pierced for only two touchdowns, both by Detroit. All that Tech could score against the Iiilltoppers in three previous meetings was a single field goal. With the teams about equal defensively, and Duquesne apparently owning a better attack, the advantage until now has seemed to be with the Red and Blue. I Selection I Harry James J.

Possibly things have been equalized by a gain on the side of Carnegie in an improved offensive and a loss on the 1 aide of Duquesne in the dismissal of Left Guard John Perko. These happenings have left the teams on a basis that looks very close to fifty-fifty.

There may be still a thin margin in favor of Duquesne in the possession of an outstanding star like Mike Basrak at center and a greater number of good backs, with Boyd Brumbaugh in particular not matched in the Tech backfield. But there Is no assurance that this edge will suffice to enable the Dukes to outscore their opponents, Duquesne will be fighting to sew up the city champlonkhip. Tech will be striving for a hold on the title and to save the Thanksgiving Day game with Pitt from being stripped of much of its importance. It looks like a stubbornly fought battle from start to finish, and Stranger things have happened than that it should end in a tie. Pitt in Peril on Husker Field CAPTAIN SET I I I I 1,111 L.

THE PANTHERS WILL have to be at their highest pitch in both playing form and mental attitude to avert disaster in Lincoln tomorrow. Always big and tough, Nebraska this year has been rated as One Of the best three teams between the oceans. i It was only in the final minute of play that Minnesota was able to score a winning touchdown against Dana Bible's giants. The Huskers are particularly dangerous Oi on their own field. Sam Francis and Lloyd 4 Cardwell, the big offensive guns, are harder 0004 to stop there than anywhere else, which is f4 st-ys, tifilmt-l' saying considerable.

True, Pitt has been more successful than -I .1 other schools against Nebraska. The Pan- 1 thers have not been defeated in any of the 1 last nine meetings of the 10-game series. winning six times and getting three score- ti less ties. However, it will take more than tradi- I tion to win this game. And also more than ARNOLD GREENE Jock Sutherland's reputation as the hard- May Improve In Shift est coach in the country to beat in November, a month in which he has lost only two games in his 13 years here while winning 36 and tying seven.

There is the in-and-out tendency of the Jungle Cats to be weighed, in addition to the known strength of the Huskers. How Arnold Greene will perform in being shifted to fullback as Frank Patrick's alternate is another problem. He may be surprisingly good in the change, or he may be as unsatisfactory as he was at quarterback. Anyway you look at it, the Panthers are in a spot of grave peril. They will have to rise to one of their peak afternoons to win, and even at that, while in their best playing form, their only chance against the Huskers will be to outsmart them.

Army and Princeton Choices NOTRE DAME HAS an uncanny knack of rising from a rut when Army is faced, but it will not be surprising if the Soldiers tomorrow repeat the defeat Navy administered to the Irish last Saturday, Princeton looks stronger than Yale Northwestern and Marquette seem likely to keep their slates clean by beating Michigan and Mississippi. The chances appear to favor Navy over Harvard. Dartmouth over Cornell, Columbia over Syracuse, Holy Cross over Brown and Penn over Penn State. Minnesota is picked over Texas. Ohio State over Illinois, Washington over Southern California, Stanford over Oregon State, California over Oregon.

Alabama over Georgia Tech, Duke over North Carolina, Tennessee over Vanderbilt, Tulane over Georgia. and Southern Methodist over Arkansas. Champion May Turn Tables ANOTHER RING CHAMPION puts his title on the line tonight. Sixto Escobar will defend the world bantamweight title in a 15-round bout in New York against Carlos (Indian) Ok Quintana, of Panama. A1! I I If you were to go by past performances ,,,40,, you might expect the scepter to change 1 hands.

For in a 10-round meeting last summer, this same Quintana gave Escobar a most thorough shellacking. It was one of the -4- ot ss2 -Ift, srf biggest upsets of the fistic season. 4 However. the match was one of those iver-the-weight affairs. Escobar's title was A not at stake, and he took on the match only 1 1 as a warm-up number for an impending 0, championship contest after an illness.

Probably it will be different tonight. Lb Escobar is quite another fighter when his I a crown is in the balance. He appears likely SIXTO ESCOBAR to retain the championship by turning the Defends Bantam Title tables on Quintana and winning by a deision at least, if not inside the limit. Escobar 15 among the few champions who do not lock up their titles in a safe. Sixto gave Tony Marino a chance only two months ago, and, if victorious tonight, will defend his laurels again coon against Baltazar Sangchill.

I By IIARRY KECK apart Editor A quiet calm pervaded the local collegiate football scene today as Carnegie Tech and Duquesene University put on the finish- ing touches for their battle at Stadium tomorrow aft- ernoon which is expected to draw up- ward of 40,000 i Iso persons if the weather is good. 4.6.00"-- Instead of the usual "bear 1 stories" and the gloom yr I. casts of defeat, Fred Lehman both camps ex- Tech Haiti-meg uded confidence in the outcome, but were ready for the struggle of the season. LINEUPS ANNOUNCED From Tech came the word that the Tartans are fit and ready and anxious for the kickoff, the tenor of which amounted almost to a challenge. Duquesne, already a winner over Pitt, was similarly on solid ground, conceding nothing to its foe.

The Tartans denied that they planned to hide away in the country after their final drill today Until time to go to the Stadium tomorrow. The Dukes, however. silently stole away to a mountain retreat after last night's workout. The following tentative starting lineups were announced: Pos. Dulniegne.

tomorrow, might mean the difference between a victory by a comfortable margin for the Pitts and a defeat. isn't even with the Panther squad, and there you have the theme of this story. Bill Stapulis, who won the starting and regular fullbacking job at Pitt this fall from Frank Patrick, suffered a severe shoulder injury in the game with Penn State last week and did not make the trip here. Bill's a speedy. hard-hitting type of back, a good ball handler and the type of fullback who always has gone well against teams of the Nebraska type.

But here, before we go any further, lets report that the Pitt squad arrived here this morning after spending yesterday in Chicago, in fair shape, serious in its determination to handcuff the Huskers tomorrow and make it seven victories oat of II starts, with three ties, in the 15-year-old series with the Nebraskans. DRILL IN OMAHA Today a final workout is scheduled for the parade ground at Fort Crooke, the U. S. Army post, just outside the city, and tomorrow morning, directly after breakfast, the boys will board another C. B.

Q. thoo-choo for Lincoln, the site of the battle. But to return to Stapulis. If Pitt could depend on Bills being in there tomorrow, the Panthers would feel much more connfident of the outcome of the struggle. Stapulis was made to order for Nebraska.

He's just the type of fullback to fool those Huskers, who while not particularly difficult to fool. still can be kidded. when it comes to this game of football. PATRICK TAKES ROLE As it is, Frank Patrick, a good plunging back. better on the defense than Stapulis, although not much, and a consistently good kicker, will' be in there.

He has to be, even though he's in far 1 from top physical condition. Frank will hammer the Nebraska as hard and often as Stapulis but he hasn't the speed to get away on those short-side plays.

Hager arranges his trips in the fall to permit him to hop wherever the Huskers happen to be playing. They'll stow away a crowd of better than 45.000 tomorrow, and with the capacity of the nifty little Nebraska ball park no more than 40,000 you can well imagine where the additional 5,000 will be located. They'll probably be sharing the bench with Dr. Sutherland, which will irk the doctor no end. HUSKERS ALL SET LINCOLN.

Neb. Nov. 11Nebraska's Cornhuskers confidently awaited tomorrows struggle with the Pittsburgh Panthers after a thorough passing drill yesterday. Three full teams worked on aerial offense and on defensive maneuvers. Coach D.

X. Bible said the practice work of the week was virtually at an end. The Huskers will turn out this afternoon for limbering-up exercises and signal drill. Students have arranged a rally with bonfires, speeches and cheering. An air of determined spirit pervaded the campus and the watchword was "Trip Pitt." hasn't been the keyman of the Panthers' attack.

Right? Certainly! Remember Weinstock, Parkinson and Booth? What did they do against Nebraska? By way of answer, we respectfully refeP you to the athletic department at Nebraska. PANTHERS' MOOD GOOD Even so, you folks back in Pittsburgh may wager the money for the winter coal the Pitts are taking the game with the proper degree of seriousness. Crippled as the squad is, with Stapulis out definitely, and with Bitt Glassford almost a sure shot not to be of any earthly use tomorrow: Daniell nursing a bum shoulder and Bobby LaRue at far from "tops." the boys really want this one. which means that Nebraska, touch as it is, may expect the traffic to be very heavy on Memorial Stadium gridiron tomorrow afternoon. The game's a complete sell out.
