After the game last Saturday. < football expert* have been reduc- | ■4 In price from a dime a dozen i to seven cents a doxen. All over i the country monster sale* are be- j Ing held. In the middle west you can huy marked down expert*.

With so many of the ranking teams on the west coast already beaten or tied they are holding “one cent" sales of football select- i or*. You pay the regular price, for one expert and for a penny more get another one thrown in. i Having posed as a football ex- . pert on occasions myself, it grieves J me to report that the sales aren't J doing very well. Buyers are passing them right up in favor of more useful object* such an antimacassar sets for backless chairs and vest pocket compasses for homing - nteeons g Come to think of ft, just what j is a footbell expert* A* far as I can figure it. he is a baseball expert with a heavy ; overcoat, or a tennis expert with | a hat. or a golf expert with a column to fill in the fall months. In short, be is a sportswriter whose guess is about * good as yours, though not always. An amazing thing about a foot- . ball expert I* his credulity. He will believe anything he hears or reads about a football team, even >f the source is a fellow expert. He averages 50 football selections a week, and be never has seen and never will see 75 per cent of the teams he picks to win or lose. The football experts are the men who are responsible for 90 per cent of the so-called upsets which occur during the season For instance. Alabama's victory over Fordham was hailed as an upset. Why? Because nine-tenths of the sportswriters had picked Fordham to win. They were convinced that Fordham was the better team, and they had convinced their readers of the same. However, the victory waa no upset to the Alabama team
