Waldorf Predicts Wave of Upsets LYNN WALDORF, head football coach at Northwestern university, believes a wave of upsets will engulf the Western conference

football championship title race next month.

Waldorf based his prediction on the fact that a shift in naval students at three member schools will change the balance of power in the conference. . . . “Although there have been some early

_ upsets, they are minor in comparison to those which may be expected in November,” Waldorf said. .

« + “Purdue will Yose four

or five naval men, Northwestern about 15, and Michigan also will

be deprived of the services of some good players.”

‘DARTMOUTH was on the point of abandoning football for the duration on account of an acute shortage of athletic funds. +» « Then it was suggested that Dartmouth play Notre Dame in Boston. . . . The game, to be played Saturday, has been a sellout for more than a month and Dartmouth is “back in the bucks.”
