Rockne’ NOTRE DAME TIM VAN WYK WILL COACH ST. MARY’S BASKET. THUNDERED OVATION AS TT LEAVES HOME Ramblers’ Coach Appears Op- timistic; Will Rest Squad Until Wednesday STARS INJURED SATURDAY Father of Marty Brill Will Watch His Son Play Last Inter- collegiate Game Chicago, Dec. 2.—(#)—The address of the Notre Dame football squad to- day was “heading west” as the un- defeated Irish moved from the biting winds of the middlewest toward the balmy climate of Los Angeles where the University of Southern California will be met Saturday. Dame rooters cheered, Coach and five of his assistants rounded up the squad yesterday afternoon, and boarded a special train for the site of the contest that shapes up as the most important of the past two years. On the way from their hotel the Notre Dame athletes occasioned about as much stir and noise as a famous aviator. An escort of motorcycle po- licemen, with sirens screaming, ac- companied them to the station. Rockne did not appear bothered about the contest against the power- ful ation from U. 8. C. outside of “skull practice,” he planned to rest his squad until Wednesday when the trip will be interrupted by a stop at Tucson, Ariz. He said that the squad needs rest after ammassing nine straight triumphs. Three drills on the University of Arizona campus will cover all of the physical labor. The first will be held Wednesday after- noon, with morning and afternoon sessions Thursday. Rockne was encouraged over the condition of his reserves. Fullback Larry Mullins, who played the finest football of his career against Army, limped slightly as he boarded the train. Captain Tom Conley’s face still was discolored by bruises suffered in the Northwestern and Army battles, but both said they could not be kept out of the conquest of troy. Among the 90,000 spectators who will watch the battle of Titans will be of watching his son play his last game of intercollegiate football. Trojan Injuries Improve; Coach Optimistic Now Wilcox, U. S.

End, and Pirck- ert, Half, Will Be Able to Enter Saturday Game Los Angeles, Dec. 2.—(/?)—Chances that the University of Southern Call- fornia will go into its Titanic game here Saturday against the unbeaten Notre Dame squad with the first string Trojan eleven intact appeared a trifle vetter today. Ralph Wilcox, left end, whose head was injured November 15 in the game with Hawali, left the hospital last night. He was the last of half a doz- en casualties, most of them shelved after the ving day fray with Washington, to leave the in- firmary. He probably will see little action against the South Benders. Erny Pinckert, halfback, showed up yesterday for practice, favoring an in- jured hip which may cause him to ‘appear only briefly. Ray Sparling, ‘Wilcox, substitute, hobbled about the practice field on a crutch and defi- nitely will not be in shape. The other injured, Orv Mohler, quarterback, Bob Hall, tackle, Al Plaehn, Hall's alter- nate, looked about as good as new.

FACULTY BEGINTOCONTEND WITH FOOTBALL ‘BALLYHOO’ All-American Teams First Tar- get of Reformers After Camp’s Death By ALAN J. GOULD (Associated Press Sport's Writer) Where football in early days had to contend with the obvious objections to slugging and brutal mass play, it experienced the first twinges of over- emphasis, the effects of the “bally- ,” at the outset of the “boom decade” now drawing to a close. Faculties viewed with alarm the im- Portance placed upon gridiron suc- cess—by the alumni, if not the under- graduates. College presidents began to decry the hippodromes and spec- tacles, reformers cast about for ways and means to check a quite natural growth in an enthusiasm for the greatest of American college sports. One of the first targets fired at was the “All-America Team.” It over-emphasized the individual to the detriment of the team and himself, critics asserted. Moreover, they added, it had become impossible for ny one man, even Walter Camp, to pass qualified judgment on thousands of star players and in all fairness to name the eleven “best.” Camp’s Death Hurts However, even the death of Camp in the spring of 1925 failed to pre- vent or discourage the annual All- ding’s Guide, edited by Camp, yielded to pressure to the extent of $0 Sonate publishing the all star-selecti Instead, an innocuous list of “mer- itorious performers” was given and still is, In the 1922 book, 14 were devoted to the list of football boys who had made good in after-life, the inference being that it was more of an achievement for a foot- ball player to make good than for the holder of a Phi Beta Kappa key or a crewman or an acrobat.. Seeking the reasons for the tre- mendous popular of football, Camp in 1922 attributed it, first, to the more attractive style of play; sec- ond, to the newspapers, giving far greater space to the game than ever before. Camp saw the Yale bowl, seating 15,000, completed but he did not live to witness a crowd of 123,000 filling in the Los Angeles Coliseum. Stars Bring Fame Just as Babe Ruth “built” bigger baseball parks, such football sensa- ae as Red Grange, the “Four mn” of Notre Dame and Red Cagle, were factors in drawing record- breaking £ “ s football Gridiron heroics and drama caught the fancy of the sports public as well as the “old grads” and colleges built bigger and better to ace commodate the cash rs. most sensational of the of the past decade. The ace of the Illini is the only three-time selection of the past eight years. He was on Camp's last team, 1924, and selected again the next year by the mass of experts carrying on the All-America task with vigorous ambition. Camp, as it turned out. made his last all-star list epochal by failing to name a single representative of the ancient eastern “Big Three,” which had in early days monopolized the selections. His first eleven represented as many different colleges. The “father of football’ passed on with a final tribute to the tremendous national growth of the sport he helped develop when he was coach, captain and star at “Old Yale” a half Maple Leafs Will Play Boston Team!

May Sever Relations In event of a refusal, the majors declared they were prepared to sever all business relations with the big minors as with the class A western and class B Indiana-TIllinois-Iowa leagues. These five organizations are non- draft leagues. ‘That is, they are exempt from the major-minor agree- ment under which the majors can purchase any minor league player for certain fixed sums. The three AA circuits have a separate agreement with the majors, the so-called modi- fied draft, by which the majors can select for a fixed sum players in these brane! who previously have played in majors. Since the three big minors have failed to manifest any unanimity of opinion of the question, baseball men fought shy of predictions as to the outcome of today’s confezence. Agreement Is Expected ‘The opinion most generally held however, was the AA circuits would indicate their willingness to accept the draft if the draft price were fixed in the neighborhood of $20,000. The majors at a recent joint conference at Cleveland were understood to have offered $17,500 but were turned down. ‘Trade winds were nothing but light zephyrs yesterday but with the influx of major league club owners and managers last night and today a brisk spurt in played deals is expected.
