Ralph Wilcox failed to make his ap- pearance at left end during the contest, while Garrett Arbelbide, strong right- flank man, was-carried from the battle with a twisted knee during the third . quarter. Pinckert was the shining light of the ~Trojan team. While he failed to gain on the famous reverse play, his pass - defense was pleasing. One of the most - spec passes of the day was Duf- fleld’s toss which Pinckert wrestled out of the hands of three opponents, but Schwartz stepped in to intercept the next effort and halted the advance.

OB ANGELES, December 6.—Speaking to radio audience on the eve of the Bouthern California-Notre Dame foot ball classic, Knute Rockne, famous coach of the Irish, named four men as his cholce for an all-time backfield. Rockne samed Morley Drury of Southern California at quarterback, Jim Thorpe of the Carlisle Indians and Elmer Oliphant of Army as half- backs, and Ernie Nevers of Stanforti as fullback. The talk was an interview by Mark Kelly, sports editor of the Los Angeles Examiner, and Warren W. Herald-Examiner. Brown, sports editor of the Chicago Asked how he rated the 1930 Notre Dame team with those of other years, particularly with the four horsemen, Rockne said: “Well, I don't like to compare that this team is better and it may not be better. teams of different eras. It may be Until we lost Savoldi, I think this team was a better team offensively, and just about as good defensively.” Rockne said the present team is just about 65 per cent as strong as the 1929 squad. “But we are playing just as good foot ball,” he said. “If you were to leave Notre Dame,” asked Brown, “where would you like to coach?” “‘Well, that is pretty hard to say. I would probably prefer to coach in an orphan asylum or at Sing Sing. At an orphan asylum there are no parents to lambast you because their darling boy is not playing, and at Sing Sing the alumni do not come around to you.” Brown then asked if Rockn e had heard any reports about the Altua- tion at the University of California, respecting Hanley of Northwestern and Zuppke of Illinois. “I have not heard much about it,” he replied. “My on foot angle ball coaching is this, that professionally we should stick together a little better and not be acting like a lot of vaudeville actors, swearing st the other chap and wishing we had his material and all that sort of thing. “I do feel that the coaching job up at Berkeley is one of the real coaching jobs in America, a real opportunity, and I think it would mean much for Zuppke or Hanley if they could secure tl‘;e position.” Guard Can’t See King’s Race Cup GRASSLAND DOWNS, Tenn., De- cember 6 (#).—The King of Spain’s Gold Cup, awarded to the winner of the Grasslands International Steeplechase, today was delayed in reaching the course because its bearer didn’t have a pass.
