By HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR
NEW YORK, Oct. 26 (AP). —
The football fan with an unlimited
budget and unlimited time — if
there is such a person—probably
would have quite a task today try-
ing to decide whether to see the
Cornell-Ohio State, Michigan-
Pennsylvania or Stanford-South-
ern California games.
The common variety of cash
customer, who has to take the
best offering nearby, probably can
do just as well for himself.
Those three games undoubtedly
figure to be the most important of
the day. First, there’s Cornell,
considered the nation's No. 1 team,
facing the Buckeyes, who_are try-
ing to wipe out the memory of an
upset beatng by the Big Red last
year, as well as two unexpected de-
feats this season. At Ann Arbor,
it’s the duel between two cham-
pion scorers. Michigan's Tommy
Harmon and Penn's Frank Reagan,
supported by a pair of fine teams.
On the West Coast, it's Clark
Shaughnessy's dazzling playmak-
ers, who have tricked their way
into the conference lead, against
Southern California's 1939 cham-
pions. who seem to be coming
back from a bad start.
.But assuming you're not one of
the 150,000 or so fans who have
the privilege of watching those
three games, what else is on the
program ?

Although roundly outplayed throughout the entire contest, a high-

scrapping Leopard team here Friday night, 7 to 6. before a crowd esti-
mated at 2,000 fans.
The visitors took advantage of a costly Leopard fumble in the third
period to chalk up their only touchdown, and Frye’s conversion follow-
ing the score provided the margin of victory.

Portland, Me. — Governor Louis
J. Brann (D) charged Willkie
with being “the man behind the
sabotage of northern industry.”
Bran said that the Commonwealth
and Southern company, which
Willkie formerly headed, and its
subsidiaries had carried on under
Willkie’s direction “a campaign to
induce northern industries to re-
move to the south, the area con-
trolled by the Commonwealth and
Southern Public utility.”
