CHAMPIONSHIP 1 ST CROSS COUNTRY EL1G HEELS WINS RUN CARDED TODAY PIMLICO FUTURITY IN GAMES STILL OPTIMISTIC We didn't ire so well last week. But 'tis comforting to note that others who tempted the gods of the gridiron by predicting the outcome of major games didn't fare any better. And that streak of fooihardiness is still rampant.

Here we go again: SCHOLASTIC ALTOOXA-YVIXDBER: This looks like the hardest game of the season for the Maroon. A victory will virtually clinch western section laurels, but AYindber is primed, fighting mad from two consecutive and unexpected defeats. We still have faith in that stalwart Altoona line and that versatile Altoona and we don't think that faith will be shattered today. The Maroon will win but the margin will not be greater than three touchdowns. TYROXE-BELLEFOXTE: Two in-and-out teams clashing.

Both teams have good potential strength but cannot use it consistently. Bellefonte is likely to be considerably peeved after that Huntingdon debacle. It's net; more than a hunch but we pick Beliefonte. although remaimn readiness to apologize to Tyrone. FHILIFSBUItG CLEARFIELD: The best thing about this game is that Clearfield's victory will give Altoona 10 points.

Over five full months the men who play for the dollars and the glory will match strokes for a total of approximately $133,000, ranging from a $3,000 purse to the enticing 525,000 waiting to be claimed in Old Mexico. As their scores are posted the pros will be thinking if not asking, "Will it get In the money?" Getting "in the money" is a serious matter.

Some of them will never collect that amount in prize money. Railroad fares. Pullman and hotel bills will run into serious money at a minimum over JJ.OOO and there are many ways to spend money on the road. Some of the best golfers in the daylight hours are the worst bridge-players by night and their budget nuist make allowance for this item.

HONORS AT STAKE By ALAN GOULD (Associated Tress Sports Editor) "EW YORK, Nov. 1. Anywhere the thousands look or the millions tune in tomorrow along the font-ball fronts, they should have no difficulty detecting the thrills of some of thj greatest gridiron battles of the vvr. Close to 30,000 fans will see lour of the teams foremost in the race for National championship honors Southern California, Notre Dame. Fittsburg and Dartmouth run into a ariety of powerful opposition that may abruptly reduce this "Big Four" to a "Big Two and a Half." Upward of 100,000 spectators will watch three undefeated western conference elevens struggle to keep their slues clean.

The Big Six has a trio of family Texas and Southern Meth-coist fight the big battle of the day in the southwest. The Southern conference slate shows at least two "title Louts." To top all this off, there is the glamorous duel of All-American can-(! Mates at New Haven, where Yale's Alhi'e Booth will attempt tg show that a 'good little man can upset the old axiom and beat a "good big niin" Dartmouth's Al Marsters. Crowds of 70,000 or more will watch this i'ale-Dartmouth battle, the Fiits-burg-Ohio State affair in Pitt stadium, and the Southern California-California in the Los Angeles coliseum. Giant Field, in Atlanta, will accommodate around 35,000 for the Notre Dame-Georgia Tech clash. These four games take the spotlight, so far as the main title is concerned.

Dartmouth has high hopes of sirk-ing off the blue jinx. The big never beaten Yale, but it has never bad a better chance to do it than now. I'Uitmouth's more seasoned line nay hold an advantage and shake Marsters loose on some of his long gallops, but there is just as good a prospect that the Elis, with Booth, will rise to occasion.

CRESS0N A. A. OPPOSE M0XHAM TEAM TOMORROW The hardest competition they have encountered this season the fast Cresson A. A. football aggregation.

C. The game will played on the Crystal Beach field west of Johnstown, tomorrow at 2:3" p. m.

The struggle will have an all important bearing on the Cambria County Independent Football championship, and the loser of this fray will be eliminated from the running while the winner will strengthen their grip toward fully capturing the county gonfalon. In the game last year between these rival clubs, the Moxham outfit defeated the locals, 6 to 0, tallying its lone touchdown shortly after th gun barked and with this defeat still in mind the Cressonittes will take the playing field tomorrow with the determination of upsetting their Flood City foes.

It is anticipated that the largest crowd that ever witnessed football game in Callitzin will be present for the fray. Both clubs indulged in hard workouts during the week. The Lilly club devoted the major part of the practice sessions this week in kicking and passing and scrimmaged with the High school, the later clubs using Gallitzin plays.

Coach Stanley C.ubala. of the Gallit-zinites. has switched Guy Moniek, roving fullback to the end position, while McMahon patrols the berth left vacant by Moniek. Much Interest is being manifested among the spectators and players of both towns and tomorrow's mecca without the least doubt will be thrilling and interesting from the klckoff at 2:30 p. m.

Neutral officials have been obtained to handle the game, while special police will be on the sidelines to keep the crowd off the playing field. Both managers refused to announce their starting line tips and It was stated last night that starting line lips will hot be submitted until a few minutes before game time tomorrow. Both clubs have their eye focused on the Cambria county pennant and this makes the coming combat all the mora remarkable. Football Today Conference YVindher at Altoona.
