College Games Are Postponed By Flu By UNITED PRESS The flu epidemic, knocking down whole football teams as no blocker ever could, has forced eancellation of 13 games scheduled for this weekend and postponement of five others. V However, busy athletic departments scurried around and manage# to schedule replacement games, while Beloit College is still shopping tor a Saturday opponent today. Elon College of North Carolina was the most frustrated. First its scheduled game with Catawba was cancelled, so it arranged a re placement game with Davidson, which badly needed an opponent for its homecoming game because flu had forced Presbyterian to cancel out of that date. Then flu hit Davidson so severely that the college cancelled its whole homecoming celebration. Including the football game with Elon. Other games cancelled: Massachusetts vs Northeastern; Ft. Hays vs Empria State; Humbolt State (Calif.) vs Western Washington; Dickinson vs Wagner; Frank-lin-Marshall vs Albright; Brandeis vs New Hampshire; Grove City vs Susquehanna; Missouri School of Mines vs Southeastern Missouri State Teachers; Sierra Junior Colvs San Jose State freshmen; Hobart vs Union; Valparaiso vs St. Joseph’s (Ind.). Games postponed: Presbyterian vs Davidson; Beloit vs Central State of Wisconsin; Eastern Kentucky State vs Youngstown (Ohio) and California Poly vs Santa Barbara College. Replacement games: Hamilton Field Flyers vs Humbolt; Waynesburg vs Albright; Wagner vs Grove City; Missouri Mines vs Emporia (Kans.) and Brandeis vs Northeastern. Wagner and Missouri Mines, mindful of what happened to Davidson, have their fingers crossed. Both have big homecoming celebrations scheduled Saturday and desperately need football opponents. Wagner, for- Instance, has ordered hot dogs for a crowd of k nno-fi 000 — Meanwhile, Notre Dame had some old-fashioned news- It has lost center-guard Dave Hurd. Not Asian flu. Appendectomy.

Colorado Hopes For Upsel Win Over Oklahoma By FRANK LITSKY United Press Sports Writer The University of Colorado Buffaloes, who almost buffaloed the national college football champions from Oklahoma last year, try again Saturday in one of the leading games nationally. Then, as now, Oklahoma was ranked No. 1 by the United Press Board of Coaches. Then, as now. Oklahoma's ground attack, speed and bench strength made it a heavy favorite. But Colorado’s crunching running game rolled up 191 yards and a 19-6 lead by halftime, only to have Oklahoma’s superior depth pay off in a 27-19 victory. Although Oklahoma Is a 27-point favorite this time, Colorado again ha* that striking power to rank first in the nation in rushing (333 yards per game) and third in total offense (431 yards per game). Still, Oklahoma figures to check the Buffs with a defense that has held the opposition to only 101 yards a game rushing, fifth best in the country. Duke Rated For Bowl An Oklahoma victory would be its 45th straight and would all but assure the Sooners of another Big Eight championship plus an Orange Bowl trip. The other Orange Bowl team probably will be the winner of the Saturday game between Duke and North Carolina State, toe only unbeatens in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Duke
