TWO POINTS . ENOUGH FOR FIELD GOAL By NEA Service Chicago, Feb. 23.—While Coach Knute Rockne of Notre Dame doesn’t favor much tinkering with the foot- ball rules, he has one pet aversion to the present playing code. Rockne feels that three points is far too generous scoring for a goal from the field. He belieyes two is the happy medium, ~ In other words Rockne feels that 4 touchdown is worth three field Is, if a team scores touchdown, it will goals to beat that s goal after a take four field team. It is possible for a good kicker to seore without much trouble from as far away as the 3: urd line. That makes it possible for a kickihg spe- cialist to beat a well-rounded supe- rior team.

Over a span of six years the New Jersey school swept aside all oppo- st of it was literally crushed, top-heavy scores being the usual result. Here and there a bit of worthy competition flashed but itswas by far the exception. Passaic’s gallant parade ranks un- equaled in the sport. Moreover, it is doubtful if anything even ap- proaching it can be offered in any line of sportive endeavor. The next best basketball mark is held by the old Buffalo Germans, who some years ago accrued 111 straight tri- umphs, Passaic, in the 169 battles, ran up A total of 9413 points to 8237 for thé foe, or an average of 59 to 20. The largest score of the streak was =145 to 5, made against Williams Prep of Stamford. . In a way, Passaic's coach, players and fans alike are perhaps glad the streak is at an end. They cannot help but feel a bit relieved. For long winning stretches are bound to be more or less of a strain both men- tally and physically. And especially so to schoolboy: Passaic can ‘well be satisfied with igits record, however.
