Next Saturday at South Bend, Ind., where Notre Dame and Minnesota clash on the gridiron, it will be a battle of Tes. For Coach Knute Rockne, sage of * the Notre Dame eleven, the situation ‘presents no perplexities, for this ‘’season, like every season he has coached at Notre Dame, he has two ! or three well-groomed teams, each of almost equal power. | For Minnesota it is more of a roblem, but one that is being met by Coach Clarence Spears. By the time the Gophers meet the Rockne men, he hopes to match reserve for reserve and outscore the famous Irish “shock ea with a quartet iving Gophers. ? ot savored iy eturn of Indian summer yesterday, Coach Spears pushed his proteges through a hard practice, centering most of his at- tention, however, on reserves. | Michigan’s stock for a victorious invasion of Chicago was well above par today because of the return to duty of Louis Gilbert, punter and forward passer extraordinary, whose absence was so seriously felt in the Illinois-Michigan game last week. Gilbert’s arm has “Lrerialad healed and in yesterday's practice he boot- ed the pigskin with the usual ac- curacy and distance.

Barnard, a tall, serious- looking gentleman who usually shuns publicity, is today president of the American League, the chosen successor by magnates of that or- ganization to the portly Ban John- son. Barnard has been connected with the Cleveland unit of the American League since 1903, having joined the club then as secretary. He been president of the Indians since the death of James C, Dunn in the summer of 1922, Ban Johnson’s successor, pos- sessed of an unusual capacity for organiaztion, is fully cognizant of the workings of a major league club. He has waged and won many warm political battles in baseball circles. He seems fully able to guide the junior major league through years of success and prosperity minus the internal dissention that has pre- dominated in late years.

Until he was 21 years old, Barn- ard had never seen a baseball game. But it seemed that destiny had linked baseball and Barnard, and the first few years of his manhood were spent in middle western writing sports for various newspa- pers. His efficiency was shown early. In 1900, while writing sports, he noticed that the standing of clubs for the Western Association as it appeared in his columns was differ- ent from what it appeared in other sport columns, Barnard checked up and found he was correct. Days passed; the season came to a close and Grand! Rapids was declared winner of the pennant over Dayton by one-half game. Then Barnard divulged the error. He was laughed at, at first, but his claim was proved correct and Day- ton was awarded the pen:.ant by the A real 5* cigar is ba kg Fargo Mercantile Co. Fargo, N. D. | PEARS WORKS |E. S.

The fight that brought Barnard to |. the attention of major league own- ers was waged in behalf of the American Association and the in- fant American League while he was connected with a newspaper of Col- umbus, O. Barnard devoted «lumns_ daily and eight solid columns on Sunday to win for the American outfit its right for self-organization. The bugaboo was the strong old Na- tional League club that sought to break the American League and use ie American Association as it saw it. Barnard joined the Indains as secretary in 1903, being hired by the late John F, Kilfoyle. He was appointed vice president and busi- ness manager in 1910 und ascended to the presidency of the club in 1922. It seems a trick of fate that Bar- nard succeeded the man who once sought to fire him. James C. Dunn, when he bought the Cleveland club, knew nothing of baseball and had employed Bob Mc- Roy as his guide in all matters per- taining to the management of his new enterprise. Barnard failed to appeal to Dunn. He _was too quiet and self-effacing. But when McRoy was forced to retire, Dunn soon learned that Bar- nard was/the one“and only one who knew all about the club. So Dunn put Barnard in full charge, with Barnard’s salary to be what Bar- nard made it on the payroll. Barnard started to run the club. He has ever since. The Cleveland organiaztion has been well man- aged in the last few years, especial- ly in 1920 when they wor. the pen- nant. Barnard, that year, had a hunch that Cleveland would win.

ALUMNT HAVE PLACE IN SUN IN GRID LOOP Critical Grads Not Unusual— Mike McTigue’s Comeback Ends in Abrupt Way BY ALAN J. GOULD (Associated Press Sports Writer) New York, Nov. 3.—()—“Bleach- er bosses” and “alumni advisers” have their places in the merry whirl of sports, it seems, whether their suggestions are desired or not. ‘They may be a bit more conspic- uous just now but the Ohio State alumni, critical of the football coaching methods of Dr. John W. Wilce, are not a novelty.

On the other hand, it wouldn’t be football without the alumni advisers.” Baseball probably has as many volunteer bosses as football.
