Leahy Picks Michigan to
Trip Army in Top Grid Go
By FRANK LEAHY
Head Football Coach
University of Notre Dame
Football fans throughout the
country will focus their attention
"on the Midwest tomorrow as the
central sector becomes host for
many of the day's most import
ant fames.
" Fourteen high ranking teams
V1U be performing within a 400
mile radius of Chicago, and it
appears that the Michigan-Army
Contest at Ann Arbor must be
considered first.
A look at the records proves
i'that the "Wolverines" are at
v' their best when the competi
' tion is toughest and we predict
" that Michigan will chalkup
their 25th consecutive victory
-' on the morrow.
'r People who are unable to
obtain tickets for the aforemen
tioned game will have to go no
farther than Lansing, Michigan
"to see a contest that will provide
them with equally as many
'thrills.
Our contention is that the
eight man line is the best way to
combat the split "T" and Mich
igan state's "Biggie" Munn has
perfected that defense to the
iextent that he will halt the Unt
versity of Maryland.
Powerful Minnesota will be
tthe winner as Northwestern
makes Us bid to regain national
prominence after losing to Pitt.
, Wisconsin's Ivy Williamson
Is certainly earning early
J season rights to the "Coach of
f'the Year Trophy" but "Pappy"
Waldorf Is bringing too much
power from California to be
lidetracked by the "Badgers."
Slow starting Iowa receives
our vote over Illinois while Indi
ana is defeated by Texas Chris
tian. Remaining midwestcrn
matches favor San Francisco,
jDayton and Miami over Detroit,
Marshall and Xavier.
j; But few steps behind In the
i number of notable games is the
J far west. Looking for upsets in
that area we pick Southern
California over Ohio State in
a game that may well see the
winner going all the way to the
Rose Bowl. Having picked
U.CX.A. to win In three upsets
thus far this fall we will string
along with the "Bruins" as
they take on Stanford at Palo
Alto. Santa Clara will have to
battle before downing a rising
Tortland university team while
Washington and Nevada edge
cut Oregon State and College
of the Pacific.
Texas will give Oklahoma its
biggest test of the season before
ithe "Longhorns" bow to Bud
Wilkinson's boys who are fast
becoming one of the nation's
best. Missouri, football's most
unfortunate team of the season,
Is expected to roll over Okla
homa A & M as they prove that
their one point losses to Ohio

'were indications of their real
strength.
Baylor will have difficulty as
they edge out Arkansas but
Denver and Kansas should have

Headlining the Southern
scene Is the Georgia-Kentucky

Dodgers Fool Experts
By Lack of Stealing
By RALPH RODEN
New York, Oct. 7 UP) The
Brooklyn Dodgers are fooling the
experts. The Brooks were ex
pected to steal the pants off the
New York Yankees but so far
they have managed to swipe only
one base while the Yanks have
purloined two.
Pee Wee Reese stole second in
the opening game for the Dodg
ers while Phil Rizzuto and Billy
Johnson turned the trick for the
Yanks yesterday. Johnson's act
of larceny was only his second
of the season.
Preacher Roe's brilliant 1-0
shutout over the Yanks yester
day was only the sixth white
washing suffered by the Yanks
in 84 World Series games.
Lefty Art Nehf shut out the
Yanks, 1-0 in 1921 and 1923 for
the New York Giants. Jack
Scott of the Giants blanked the
Yanks, 3-0 in 1922. Jess Haines
of the St. Louis Cardinals au
thored a 4-0 victory in 1926 and
Lefty Ernie White of the Cards
turned in a 2-0 classic in 1942.
One of the reasons advanced
by some for the light hitting in
the first two games was the
removal of the green canvas
screen in the center field
bleachers. The screen, up all
season, was pulled down In or
der that 500 more bleacher
fans could be accommodated.
Some observers believe that
although $500 more dollars
was raked In, the hitting suf
fers. When the Dodgers scored in
the second inning yesterday, it
ended a string of 17 consecutive
scoreless innings in World Se
ries competition for the Brooks.
Exactly two years ago, Oct. 8,
1947, the Dodgers tallied against
New York in the second inning
of the final game and that was
all until Jackie Robinson scam
pered across.
Of the 20 hits collected by
both clubs so far, eight have
been for extra basis with each
club banging out four long
blows apiece.
Tommy Henrich, playing first
base for the first time in a World
Series, has made 20 putouts, four
less than he made in his previous
three series as an outfielder.
son, Texas A & M , and Mississippi.
Boston College's impressive
return to form against Wake
Forest causes them to be
picked over Penn State. Ivy
league leader, Cornell, is ex
pected to continue In the
number one spot by downing
Harvard, as Pennsylvania and
Columbia become runners up
subduing Princeton and Yale.
Three eastern teams which
have proved the experts wrong
quite frequently this fall, Villa-
nova, Pittsburgh, and Brown
should continue winning at the
expense of St. Mary's, West
Virginia, and Rhode Island State.
Rounding out our seaboard selec
tions it looks like Dartmouth,
Boston University, Wake Forest,
and Duke over Holy Cross, Col
gate, Georgetown, and Navy.
Uppermost in our minds as we
gather in our belongings for tom
orow's trip to Lafayette, Indiana
is the genuine scare we received
last fall before eking out a 28 to
27 win over Purdue. If the
Boilermakers" Harry Szul
borski is ready to go, the spec
tators will see two of America's
best running backs in action as
Szulborskl and Notre Dame's
Emil "six-yard" Sitko vie for
ground gaining honors.
When Roe struck out pinch-
hitter Bobby Brown ' in the
eighth, the Dodgers evened an
old score. Brown batted 1.000
against the Dodgers two years
ago with three pinch-hit safeties
