No. 11—Camp’s Last Team. HERE foot ball in early days had to contend with the ob- vious objections to slugging and brutal mass play, it ex- perienced the first twinges of over- emphasis, the effects of the “ballyhoo,” at the outset of the “boom decade” now drawing to a close. Faculties viewed with alarm the im- portance placed upon gridiron success— by the alumni, if not the undergraduates. College presidents began to decry the hippodromes and spectacles, reformers cast about for ways and means to check a quite natural growth in and enthu- slasm for the greatest of American eol- It rts. e‘(;nml the first targets fired at was the “All-America team.” It overempha- sized the individual to the detriment of the team and himself, critics asserted. Moreover, they added, it had -become impossible for any man, even Walter Camp, to pass qualified judgment on thousands ‘of star players and in -all fairness to name the 11 “best.” 'OWEVER, even the death of Camp in the Spring of 1025 failed to prevent or d the annual All-America lemic.

(HICAGO, December 2.—The address of the Notre Dame foot ball squad today was “heading West” as the un- defeated Irish moved from the bit- ing winds of the Middle West to- ward the balmy climate of Los An- geles, where the University of South- e California will be met Satirday.

Rockne was encouraged over the condition of his reserves. In the early games of the season and well into the middle of the campaign, the Irish shock troops had plenty of chances to work, but falled to measure up to Notre Dame stand- ards. Every opponent scored on them, with Pennsylvania piling up 20 points. Against Army last Satur- day, however, they went out there at the start and held their own in great shl?e Fullback Larry Mullins, who played the finest foot ball of his career against Army, limped slightly as he boarded the train. Capt. Tom Con- ley’s face still was discolored by bruises suffered in the Northwest- ern 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 the Titans will be J. E.

FULLER, JR. HOUGH it i3 difficult to pre- I dict the winner of the pub- lic high school basket ball championship series, which gets under way next month, it is not hard to pick a probable win- ner of the public high track meet next Spring. It is a safe bet that Eastern will land its third straight title in the annual games. Field and track preparation will get under way with a will at Eastern, Tech and Central immediately after the Christmas holidays. Western again will have a small squad. Business, as usual, will have no team. Eastern, Tech and Central all have lost valuable tracksters, but Eastern, which had an unusually large and ca- pable squad last season, still has a group of dependdbles at hand. Central, too, retains a fairly good nu- cleus. Tech, however, which had little seasoned material, is now even worse off. Eastern last Spring swept to an easy victory in the title meet, piling up 663 points to 29%; for Central and 25 for Tech. Right now it appears that the teams will finish in the same order next May. Eastern must do.most of its rebuilding in the running events, while Central and Tech will have to recon- ‘struct all along the line. Prominent among the good ones around whom Eastern will rebuild its team is Bob Slye, who won three events to score 15 points and take individual honors in the 1930 meet. Slye captured the 120-yard high hurdles in 16%s sec- onds to clip 35 of a second off- the for- mer mark, the 220-yard low hurdles in 2645 seconds, just Ys of & second over the record, and was victorious in the broad jump. Other Eastern Talent. Other leading members of the East- ern squad will include Fred Hutchin- son, who counted eight points by win- ning the pole vault and placing second in the shotput last @pring; Grover Ev- erett, who was second in the 120-yard high hurdles and third in the 220-yard low hurdles; George Shorb, who was third in the 880; ve Sprinkle, who tied for second in the high jump, and Tony Palmer, who runs the dashes. Chester and Frank Miles, twins, are among the graduated Lincoln Park members of the squad of a season ago who will be especially missed. Chester the mile and was a member of Frank was second mile and seaso) feet 2 inches; Victor Farhood, who was victorious in both the shotput and discus; Charley Jenkins, who captured: the high jump; Dolphin Weber, who was second in the ; Don Bm who was a member of the mile team; John Long, who was third in the javelin and also broke the old record; Paul Moffett, who was third in the ‘shotput, and Everett Oxley, who heaved the javelin. Allison Jenkins now are at the University of Maryland, Oxley at Detroit University and Moffett at Catholic University. Relay Team Gone. Eastern has lost its whole rela; which finished second to last season. In addition to Weber and Swope the Miles brothers were on the team. Tech's best bets are Al Reichman, : Quinn, yard dash, and Carl MacCartee. who captured the 440, both of whom also ran on the relay team, and Piggott, who was second in the 220-yare hurdles, are stalwarts who have been lost. It appears that Tech has a good chance to repeat its victory in the half mile and in the relay but beyond that is not expected to do a whole lot. Central’s strength will depend in considerable measure upon whether Paul Hinkel, winner of the 220-yard June. 3 second in the pole vault in the last title meet; St. John, who was third in the mile, and Ditzler, who was third in the 220- ard dash are among seasoned Central {mys who will be available. Riley, who was nd in the 100 and 220; Wilbur Cre who was third in the 100 and broad jump; Rose, who was second in the broad jump, and Brandt and Lampson, who were second and third in the discus, are main losses from last season’s Central team.

Only Southern California has won two Rose Bowl engagements. The ‘Trojans were victorious in 1923 and 1930.

He does not plan any cutting of the squad, but does not ex- pect it to remain unusually large, as as- pirants who are not used doubtless will voluntarily quit.

By the Associated Press. EW YORK, December 2.—Only four games are on the Eastern foot ball schedule this week, but they are four fitting pre- liminaries to the grand finale of the year in the Army-Navy clash a week later. Foremost among the quartet is the Penn-Navy game at Philadelphia, which continues an old rivalry in addition to giving the Midshipmen a final test of strength before the service clash. The teams have been meeting on the - iron since 1888. In that time, has won nine games, Navy three and two have been tied. Their last two games have been close, and this year they again are rated about even, al- though both squads are somewhat bat- tered from the long season.
