Not so well drilled as Army or so strong as Northwestern, both of which were beaten by Notre Dame, Southern California was rated higher in the betting odds because: 1) West Coast teams have generally won on their home fields from teams from other parts of the U S. enervated by the sunny weather; 2) Notre Dame had won 18 straight games in two seasons, was thought to be tired. Instead, Knute Rockne's various prancing backfielders at once bewildered the over-rated Trojans with brilliant plays, throwing for losses Southern California's famed Plungers Plinckert and Duffield. Marchmont Schwartz flipped an 11-yd. pass to Quarterback Carideo who trotted eight yards farther for the first touchdown. They made three more after that. Their own goal was never in danger. Notre Dame 27, Southern California 0. Getting up speed for their charity game with Army, the Navy plungers slammed through the Penn line, tossed passes for long gains. Navy 26, Penn 0. A 76-yd. march in the last three minutes almost brought New York University a tie in their post-season charity game, but Colgate blocked the kick. Colgate 7, N. Y. U. 6. North Carolina's punting quarterback, Johnny Branch, held Duke at bay, but that was not all his team had to do. The scoreless tie played in the mud gave Duke the State championship, since North Carolina had been beaten by Davidson. Although outrushed by eleven first downs to seven, a Tom-Thumb team from Rice amazed a crowd in Houston, Tex., by trimming Iowa State 13 to 7. Carnegie Tech's passes--McCurdy to Kavel--brought two touchdowns, and McCurdy intercepted a Washington & Jefferson pass and ran it over. Carnegie Tech 26, Washington & Jefferson 0.
