THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1930 Rockne Juggernaut May Prove Itself Greatest Notre Dame Eleven OLYMPIC ASSOCIATION MEET EXPECTED TO BE HARMONIOUS SUBSTANTIAL ANTAL NARGH | OVERNORTHWESTERN ALL, THAT IS NEEDED) If Victory Is Forthcoming, Back- ers of ‘Four Horsemen’ Must Think SATURDAY GAME ‘NATURAL’ Michigan - Chicago, Minnesota- Wisconsin, Illini-Buckeye Tilts Interesting Chicago, Nov. 19.—(P)—Knute Rockne’s football juggernaut, 1930 model, will arrive at the cross roads of its fight for recognition as one of the greatest if not the greatest Notre Dame football machine to steam over the gridiron. If the “fighting Irish” can crush the undefeated Wildcat eleven from Northwestern by a one-sided score without the services of their be- whiskered ace, “Jumping Joe” Savol- di, they will gain an argument that even supporters of the immortal “Four Horsemen” will find difficult to dispute. Northwestern, with a team of about equal strength and fame with its present edition of stars, forced the | “Four Horsemen” to a fight of their football lives to win a 13 to 6 decision back in 1924. So every point over that margin that the 1930 crew of “fighting Irish” can pile up over Northwestern will be used as a con- vincing argument along with their romp over their first seven foes of the present campaign. Interest Is Intense As the football “Natural” drew closer today, interest increased to an intense point. With all of the 48,000 seats sold weeks ago, fans offered fancy prices, ranging from $25 to $40 a seat and scalpers were forgetting about the depression and the so-called devitalization of football. Betting brokers reported a rushing business with the odds ranging from 2 to 1 to 5 to 1 on Notre Dame. In the rival football camps, the or- der was “full steam” ahead. Rockne swung into his stride as the dispenser of bad news by telling his players they are about to meet the toughest opponent they have encountered this year. He worked his men overtime perfecting their interference against the Wildcat attack. At Northwestern Coach Dick Hanley also used psycho- logy to key up his players to a fight- ing pitch. ch teams were in good physical condition. Michigan Gets Ready Michigan today settled down to serious work for its final against the weak Chicago team, the only obstacle between it and a share of the Big Ten championship with Northwestern. | The over-confidence germ worried Coach Harry Kipke no little bit. Illinois’ chan@es of defeating Ohio State Saturday were at a low ebb to- day. Five Illini regulars, including Captain Olaf Robinson and “Chuck” Hall of the backfield, were in the uni- versity hospital with injuries. Ohio State was in good condition but too confident to suit Coach Sam Willa- man. Although several Wisconsin regu- lars remained on the casualty list, all were expected to recover to greet the Minnesota invasion Saturday. Mean- while Coach Fritz Crisler of Minne- sota continued to shift his backfield around in search of a scoring punch. Bill Brownell, regular halfback, was still out with injuries at the Gopher camp. All was gloom at Indiana. The Hoosier freshmen ripped up the var- sity last night with Purdue plays and added to that was the prospect that. Hughes, star Indiana fullback, may be out of the game Saturday with a minor injury. Jones May Quit Executive Seat Emperor’s Retirement From Competition Might Make Him, Ineligible New York, Nov. 19.—(#)— Bobby Jones’ retirement has brought up the question of his eligibility to continue to sit in the councils of the United States Golf association as a member of the executive committee. Informally, at least, Herbert H. Ramsay, president-elect ef the associ- ation, has taken the position that there is no reason why Jones’ with- drawal from competition should per- suade him to resign from the com- mittee. Jones, who with Harrison R. (Jim- my) Johnston, St. Paul, had been the only player in recent times to be se- lected for the executive committee, may solve the whole problem by re- signing. Close observers were of the opinion that he would do so when his term of office expires. Cochran Boosts His Lead to 630 Wins Yesterday’s Blocks From Willie Hoppe by 300 to 132 and 300-183 New York, Nov. 19.—(?)—With one- third of the long grind behind him, Welker Cochran held a lead of 630 points over Willie Hoppe in their world’s 18-1 balkline billiards cham- pionship match ‘today. Cochran, who won the first two blocks by comfortable margins, dupli- cated again yesterday, taking the afternoon session 300 to 132 and the evening block 300 to 183. The grand totals were: Cochran 1,200, Hoppe 570. Eight more blocks will be played.

Flying wedges, slug- ging matches, the old Big Three dom- | inating the gridirons. | These were the outstanding charac- | tertistics of American football as it was played and known two score years ago. They are the first impressions to strike the observer's fancy, seeking the origin of that conspicuous morsel of gridiron ballyhoo—the All-Amer- ica Team. It was originated not, as may be supposed, by the late Walter Camp, but by Caspar W. Whitney, whose hobby was made a national institu- tion by the more enterprising son of Yale and “father” of football. Whitney’s first selections were pub- lshed in Harper's Weekly after the season of 1889. It proved very iater- esting, likewise very simple for Whit- ney to select the eleven best men playing on the teams of Harvard, Yale and Princeton. No one questioned that the Big Three produced bigger and better football players than any other insti- tutions of higher learning. The iabel “All-America” was accepted much as the populace accords to the designa- tion of the annual American baseball classic as the “world’s series.” Shaggy-Haired Giants When Whitney's honor rol! of 1889 is called, with Heffelfinger, Cowan, Stagg, Poe, Ames and other stalwarts | on the list, modern fandom thinks of | shaggy-haired giants. Yet, physically, the average then was no bigger than it is now. As far back as 1883 a Yale rush line averag- ing 185 pounds per man was consid- ered astoundingly big.

Well, ; boys, it came true twice on the same | day. On opposite sides of the continent the afternoon of Saturday, November 8, Howard Jones of Southern Califor- nia and Knute Kenneth Rockne of Notre Dame must have felt like rub- bing their eyes, pinching themselves to make sure it was not just a dream, after all, instead of the real thing ithat was unfolded before them by ; their gridiron pupils. It is doubtful if modern major league football anywhere has wit- nessed as faultless exhibitions of of- fensive football as Notre Dame man- ifested in slaughtering Pennsylvania 60-20, or Southern California dis- Le in overwhelming California ; What a battle it will be if the Fighting Irish and the Trojans can reproduce such football when they meet in the Los Angeles Coliseum December 6. What a battle, anyway. In some fifteen years of peering intently at various gridiron proceed- ings east, west and south, I have never seen such perfect co-ordina- tion, such superlative blocking, such sustained offensive drive as Notre Dame put on exhibition for the bene- fit_of 80,000 at Franklin Field. Dartmouth’s passing attack in 1925 | was devastating. Illinois with Grange packed @ sensational scoring punch. The “Four Horsemen” were a great offensive combination, but this 1930 { Notre Dame scoring factory produces = like Ford turns out motor cars. { The Irish averaged a point-a-min- jute against Pennsylvania but 54 of their 60 points were scored in only ; 20 minutes of actual playing time. Every time Notre Dame had the ball and catapulted the carrier through an opening, it was a poten- tial touchdown. The Rockne regulars, after warm- ing up, had nine chances to carry the ball over for a touchdown. They capitalized eight of these chances in marches of from 15 to 77 yards, ad- vancing the pigskin by straight rush- ing a total of 534 yards in an aggre- gate of 29 plays. The result was nearly always “the same, whether Savoldi, Brill, O'Connor, Schwartz or Mullins toted the ball. It was either @ first down or a touchdown. Appropriately enough, all this ac- tivity was directed by the All-Amer- ican quarterback, Frank Carideo of Mt. Vernon, New York. Old Penn has not had such grid- iron humiliation heaped upon her in over 40 years. Back in the 80's, be- fore the advent of the Woodruff “steam-roller system” at Philadelphia. the Quakers were easy victims of the Old Big Three—Yale, Harvard and Princeton. In the canvas-jacketed days of 1887 Princeton walloped Penn three times in one season to the tune of 95-0, 61-0, 48-0. The Tigers repeated the triple dose the next year and to make it unanimous Harvard and Yale each plastered the Quakers by 50-0. However, that was before Woodruff Hare, Brooke, Osgood and other stal- warts made the Red and Blue a mighty gridiron factor. In modern times, the worst Penn defeats were the 34-3 lacing by Michigan in 1914. the 41-0 beating by Georgia Tech in 1917, and the 41-0 slaughter by Kaw | and Cornell in 1921, the 28-2 reverse at the hands of Grange and Illinois in 1925.

It includes games in four conferences and has three Big Ten contests listed. Besides playing Northwestern, one of the Big Ten favorites, Carleton also will meet Illinois and Minnesota.

Carleton also plays North Dakota in the North Central conference Jan. 5, and St. Olaf in the Minnesota State league, Jan. 20 and has eight midwest. conference tilts to round out the pro- gram. Two more games are to be arranged. PORTUGAL SPORTS GROW Less than a decade ago, sports were frowned up6n in Portugal and only professionals engaged in field and track events. Today every village has its sporting club. Two pages are de- voted daily to sports in all the news- papers, and there is hardly a game the Portuguese does not go in for.
