Princeton Meets Yale

Princeton is a heavy favorite to re-

a habit of disappointing, and the sons

yardage dearly.I

season, meets Pennsylvania at Phila-

Earl Blaik has molded a good team
in his first year at Dartmouth. How-
ever, this is another of those tradi-
tional meetings that have a habit of
upsetting the "dope-bucket."
Stevens Wants Win
N.Y.U. plays Rutgers in what should
be one of the closest meetings be-
tween the two teams in the last dec-
ade. Mal Stevens would like nothing
better than to round out his first
year as the Violet's mentor by taking
its ancient enemy into camp.
In the South, Alabama's undefeated
Crimson Tide is expected to have an
easy time with a sub-average Georgia
Tech team. Tulane meets Kentucky
and Southern Methodist plays Ark-
ansas in two other important games
in that section.
Another of the South's traditional
games will take place at Nashville,
where Vanderbilt runs up against the
strong Tennessee team. Tenessee is
favored to beat the Commodores but
the Vanderbilt team is longing to give
Dan McGugin a parting gift in the
shape of a victory over its traditional
rival.

to Breadon not to discuss any phase
of the negotiations, declined ever to
admit the deal was off.
"I don't know just when I will
leave town," Wentz commented. "And
if, by chance, I should happen to
bump into Sam Breadon during the
next day or two, I certainly would
welcome a conversation with him. We
might even talk about baseball."
"No, I didn't say that the negotia-
tions can't be resumed," Breadon
said, replying to a query. He was
certain, however, that "negotiations
for the sale of the club are dropped
for an indefinite period."
Wentz made it clear that he was
not interested in buying any club ex-
cept the Cardinals.
