Under Rockne's system of inter- changing backfields, no one back has stood out much above his fellows. Four of his 11 ball carriers are dan- gerous open-field runners, four others are of the line-smashing type and there are three quarterbacks almost equally qualified for running the pla tossing passes. The greates weakness of the team this vear has | been the lack of a good punter, The Notre Dame backfield this year was the basis of most of Rockne's strategy, but it cost the team many penalties, when referees decided it violated the rule governing backfields In motion.
