However, the Buckeyes, like Army, are one touchdown favorites to maintain their perfect record.

In addition to Army and Ohio State, they are Texas, Northwestern, Lou isiana State, Mississippi, Colo rado and Rutgers. Texas, ranked fourth nation ally, meets Rice in a' "pick 'em" game that should have a major bearing on the South west Conference race. The Owls suffered their only con ference defeat at the hands of Texas last year and would like to return the compliment Sat urday. Iowa Over Wildcats Sixth-ranked Iowa is a 10 point pick to hand Northwest ern its first defeat, but all the other perfect record teams are heavy favorites. LSU is 12 over Florida, Ole Miss is 14 over Arkansas, while the odds makers declined to quote prices on Colorado meeting with Nebraska and Rutgers clash with Lehigh. Once-beaten Notre Dame, with fullback Nick Pietro sante and halfback Norm Ody niec listed as doubtful starters was a slim two-point choice over Purdue in the Midwest regional TV game. Auburn, the nation's No. 3 team, is expected to wallop Maryland by at least two touchdowns while e i g h t fa ranked Oklahoma is a four touchdown choice over Kan sas State.

Jefferson, which has swamped everybody it has played, puts its number-one coaches' ranking on the line against Franklin at Portland. Jeff is a prohibitive favorite. M e d f o r d and Roseburg, ranked second and third, re spectively, play California op ponents. Medford travels to Eureka and Roseburg will be at Crescent City.
