PAGE EIGHT Husky SOLDIERS FIELD 1S PACKED FOR MIDWEST CLASH Notre Dame Favored by Many to Win Over Midshipman Outfit BOTH ARE DEFEATED) Soldiers Field Clash Is One of Three Spectacles in Chicago Today Chicago, Oct. — (P) — Before 120,000 or more spectators, the larg- est football throng ever assembled in America, two Trojan elevens, Notre | Dame and the Navy, were ready to | match speed and brawn in the arena of massive Soldier field today. | For Chicago, which also had the important Jowa-Chicago and Ohio| State-Northwestern games on its | program, it was by far the red-let- ter day in football history. More than 200,060 were expected to watch the three games, and the city seethed with activity. Streets were jammed and thousands of police struggled to keep the tremendous traffic moving. The glamour of the spectacle at Soldier field, which attracted scores of celebrities, all but dwarfed the} outcome of the contest between Knute Rockne’s Ramblers and “Navy Bill” Ingram’s Midshipmen. Among the box-holders were Vice President Charles G. Dawes, Secretary of the Navy Curtis D. Wilbur, other high naval officials, and many movie stars, including Gloria Swanson, Lew ‘ody, Norma Shearer, and Molly , a dyed-in-the-wool Notre Dame rooter. On the sidelines room was made for baseball's two be: hemoths of swat, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig, the New York Yankees’ “home run twins.” The Bambino was a Notre Dame rooter, while Larrupin’ Lou was out for the Navy. With a fleet backfield and a com- paratively weak line, Knute Rockne’s men depended on speed, while the Navy, with its heavier line, depended on brawn. Coach Ingram said he planned to use Lloyd halfback if the field was heavy, with Spring at the other half, Clifton at full, and Welchel at quarterback. Coach Rockne indicated he would alter his usual campaign procedure by sending his strongest team into the game at the outset—Drew at fullback, Niemiee and Chevigny at the halves, with Brady at quarter. Game time was 2:30 p.m., cen-| tral standard time. SCHEDULE SHOULD ‘GRADUATE WEAKER TO STRONG TEAMS By JOCK SUTHERLAND (Coach, University of Pittsburgh) It is not always possible to ar- range a well-balanced schedule, but I believe all college and high school coaches will agree that if games could be scheduled in such sequence that the squad is allowed gradual development, it is highly desirable. The 1927 schedule of the Univer- ity of Pittsburgh team was well balanced. The schedule for this sea- son is quite the opposite, although practically the same teams will be met. I would just as soon meet the five or six strongest teams in the country every year if the games were 50 arranged that my squad would develop slowly and “breathing spells” would be afforded. a-- I believe the well-balanced sched- ule consists of from seven to nine ganes. “It starts off with two or three easy contests, the outcome of which should never be in doubt. The ‘games, however, should become in- creasingly difficult, and the third or fourth game should be a real test for the team. Development Was Gradual Last season Pittsburgh met these teams, in the order indicated: Th: Grove City, West Virginia, Carnegie Tech. Allegheny, ton and Jefferson, Nebrask: Penn State. The first two gi Permitted me to experiment plays and players; West Virgii er the team a good test, as di ake. The annual intercity battle with Carnegie Tech was a high point of the season. and the game with Al- legheny the next week is what I term a “breathing sp. Then came itd games with Washington and Jefferson, Nebraska, and Penn State. This season Pitt must meet Car- pais Tech, Syracuse, Washington and Jefferson, Nebraska, and Penn State on consecutive weeks.

GOPHERS FAGE PURDUE PESTS Bronk Nagurski Gets Fullback Assignment in Revival of Rivalry Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 13.—(@) Minnesota inaugurates its 1928 Big Ten football season today by meet- ing Purdue, a foe it has not com- peted with for 31 years. Although the Gophers crushed Creighton 40 to 0 a week ago, Coach Clarence W. Spears looks upon to- day’s contest with the Boilermakers as the first real test for his eleven.

TROJANS IMPORT ENGLISHMAN FOR EXPERT: KICKING Los Angeles, Oct. 13.—(7)—A rugby player, a gentleman clever with his toes, will try to end the University of Southern California’s long string of éne point defeats on the gridiron. Edward G. Greeves, who hails from a far south sea land, Aus- tralia, is imparting to the Trojan players the methods of punting and drop-kicking as are practiced in the land “Down Under” in the game of rugby. That he was imported a dis- tance of 5,000 miles indicates the institution’s pressing need for an accurate drop-kicker, for the lack of which many football games were lost by a.one point margin. Greeves, one of Australia’s most noted kickers and a star for the last six years on the Geelong, team of the Victorian league, will act in an advisory capacity to Coach Howard Jones. That he has never seen a game of American football is immaterial, as he will confine his efforts to teaching punting and drop-kicking. - As the Anzac can boot the pig- skin as accurately as most American halfbacks can pass the ball, Coach Jones is looking for him to bring out some remarkable improvement in his punters, and to develop an accurate drop-kicker this season, something that Southern California’ has not had since the pre-war days of Frankie Mallette. Sere is said een Doasens @ rec- ord of kicking a rugby 92 yards into the air. Fifty yards is just a “fair” kick. for him, and, for ac- curacy, his boots remind one of a rifle shot, seldom veering from the intended goal. He can place his kicks so that he can hif an item the size of a football at 35. yards, and that is a simple feat for him. Rugby football once was played by American colleges, but this is said to be the first time that a rugby player has been brought into use to teach exponents of American football the art of kicking. YALE-GEORGIA. ATTRACTS EAST New York, Oct. 13.—(AP)—The Yale-Georgia game at New Haven seems to hold forth the greatest possibilities of football fireworks in today’s sere Anas.

Old Grad Snorts Perhaps the old grad disgust—‘So this is football.” T fact remains, it is—and the fashion plate warrior is dressed in his re- splendent glory not for the sartorial effect on the Nareaitroe but as a matter of utilitarian expediency.

WINNING HEART Jackrabbits Determined to Whip Columbus Without Halfback Today Brookings, S. D., Oct. 13.—A new fighting spirit amounting to grim determination has been in evidence the last couple of days in the State College Jackrabbit camp, brought about quite largely by the fact that the team would be.minus the services of Roman Schaefer, triple threat halfback, in the game with Columbus today. In giving out the starting lineup for the pit, Cy Kasper definitely stated that “Schaef” would not play. The muscle injury to his hip is com- ing slowly and the fondest hopes in the Jackrabbit camp are that the veteran back be ready for the North Dakota University battle next week. With Schaefer on the sidelines, Kasper spent much of the time yes- terday searching for a punter and asser to take the and ‘of the in- jured star. Both Schultz and Henry were tried at the left halfback job, and Cy was more than pleased with the way they responded. In fact, in Henry, Cy believes he has uncovered a real dark horse and wonders how the little Volga boy has remained in obscurity so long. Henry is fast, strong on defense, and is a good punter and passer. Schultz has long been recognized as a good punter and his passing and general play has shown great improvement since he has been forced into a regular job. job. Wert Englemann, star ball carrier, was also given a trial at the punting and passing job the last couple of days and his work showed great im- provement. Cy’s search for punters even went to the line where he un- covered a good kicker in Eggers, right end. The Wagner boy may be called back to boot in a pinch. The line looked a lot better this week. Every lineman on the first two squads is fit for the first time this year. Kaser is far from optimistic over the outcome of the game and will be more than satisfied with a slim victory. Every ‘ounce of strength . available will be piled into the game with no thought of future conference games until the final whistle blows. A squad of 30 players made the trip- to Sioux Falls. MY SULLIVAN IN RING COMEBACK St. Paul, Oct. 13—()—My Sulli- van, St. Paul, won a technical de- cision last night from Billy Show- ers, fellow townsman, in the sixth round of a scheduled 10 round bout after Showers had been floored nine times and was almost out on his feet. Showers was hopelessly beaten and hit the canvas twice in the sixth before the fight was ended. He had been dropping regularly, including two falls in the first session. Sulli- van, boxing prettily and using a smashing left hand, worked smooth- ly to win. He was all business. Showers showed considerable stam- ina to last. Sullivan weighed 148%; Show- ers 149%.
