VEN before the final whistle blows for the football sexson rumors E are flying around that several of the country’s lending cofiches will be in new surroundings next that Knute Rockne, whose Notre Dame teams have lost only one game in four years, is anxious to jump to Washington and Jefferson. of the matter is that The truth Rockne is very keen about remaining ‘at Bouth Bend, Rockne ts Professor of Chemistry asewell as football at Notre Dame. He signed a new con _ tract in 121 for half the amount thet Northwestern offered because his reputation was made at Notre Dame and the ties of friendship held firmly * against financial inducements Rockne will not only remain as Notre Dame coach but .at the peseat is busily engaged mapping out the 1923 schedule. Games with Georgia Tech, Carnegie Tech, Butler and Indianapolis already lave becn ar- ranged. NOTRE DAME WANTS GAME PLAYED IN NEW YORK. The Notre Dame conch wrote to Charles Daly the-other day that un- der no condition would the South Bend cloven visit West Point next season for another game with the cadets. It has always been Notre Dame's big ambition to engage @ high class opponent in New York, and if the cadets can get permission from the War Department for another vis- iting contest {t is likely that Notre Dame will come East to’ meet’ the voldiers here. The future of the West Point-Notre Dame game is oontin- gent on the Army's ability to come to New York next season. Just now there are many vague fumors concerning the head coach who will pilot the Bulldog next sea- gon, The final decision is strictly up to Tad Jones.

Immediately tie coaches started grooming the substitute ends to fill the berth left vacant by the little Quaker warrior. Pruneret, Westgate and Joha- son had @ chance to show their wares at the wing position in the remainder of Lhe practice, but none came anywhere near the little “Swede” es be is ‘known.

Word comes from the West coach cares to remain there will be no objection from those who super- vise athletics at Yale. Tor some time Jones has told friends of his desire to devote more time to business. It is quite ponsible the de- mands upon his time will force Jones to relinquish his coaching contract at Yale, but it will be Jones himself who will determine the decision. NEALE WOULD LIKE TO COACH COLUMBIA, Eari “Greasy” Neale, who accom. plished wonders with Washington and Jefferson, ie seeking a new berth fur next season. Neale, a very capable coach, would like to come to Colum- bia. In looking around, however, fur a successor to Buck O'Neill, the Co- lumbla authorities would do well to first consider one of thelr own grad- uates—Tom Thorp. Thorp was one of tho greatest stars ever turned out Columbia or any other college. E\ver since his playing days Thorp has devoted himself to the game as writer and official. When Columbia revived football Thorp was one of the first to help out when assistance was most needed. Much {ts written about col- lege loyalty. There can be no ques- tioning Thorp's loyalty to Columbla. Now {8 a fine time for loyalty to be shown on the other end As for Thorp's fitness for the job as head coach for the Blue and White our opinion coincides with that of Fred Dawson, Nebraska coach, who says Tom Thorp has more football systems at his finger-tips than any one else in the game to-day.

When the French player stepped to the table for what proved to be the final inning he was thirty-seven points behind In the evening Conti began where he had left off in the afternoon, and before he was forced to sit down through a miss he had rolled up 6 continuous run of 270. This gave the Frenchman the edg the night's play of 207 to 0 before the Belgian had a chance to show what he could do, Horemans, nothing daunted, be- gan an uphill fight which was so suc- cessful that at the close he was only 74 points behind, the score at the end bf four innings standing only 800 to 226 in favor of Conti. Horemans pulled up through # fine run of 187, bis average being 66%. Conti's average was 75. The match will be continued this afternoon, Cont! has disputed the claim of Horemans to the title ever since the Frenchman first arrived in this country.

Famous Star of the Turf Is Sent to Stud Near Lexington. The racing days of the famous Morvich are over, he has been retired to Miss Eljzabeth Daingerfield’s farm, near Lexington, where Man o' War also went, according to Fred Burléw whe cralned him for Benjamin ‘Block, Morvich was Unbeaten as a two-year ld and after winning the Derby last spring went to pieces, Miss Daingerfield, whose knowledge of horoughbreds 1s equal to any man’s, lways has been an ardent admirer of he little brown horse. During his stay at Churchill Downs before the Derby she was an almost dally visitor to bis yarn, and at that time told Mr. Block shat when the time came that the horse was to be retired she would like to have im at Heylands, She told the writer a few moment after the Derby was run, while Morvich was etlll receiving plaudits from the crowd, that she considered the eon of Kunnymede just ten times better than the horses that he had run against, and that had he been beaten her opin- on would have been the same. She considered that he had everything- lood-lines, speed, gameness and stam: ina—to make him a great horve. Morvich is one of those freaks that come to racing once in a while A sort of ugly duckling of the string A, B. Spreckels sent)East to race and sell in 1921, he developed into @ swan of swans, A not particularly large or pre- possessing appearing colt, with enlarged knees, he made his first appearance In selling race on the opening day of the season and won in @ common gal- lop at 50 to 1. Max Hirach bought him a day or 8 after for $4,500 and sold him to Freé Burlew the next day at $1,000 profit. Later Burlew sold the half interest he held tn the colt to Mr, Block for price sald to have been $40,000. His two-year-old season wi succession of triumphs for Morvich; be won eleven races In eleven starts, meet- ing every horse of any consequence and beating them all easily. That season he won more than $115,000. His great- est race was tn the Pimlico Futurity, when for the first time tn his life he felt the whip and came from to win breesing at the end. His pring training for the Kentucky Derby was as spectacular as his racing as a two-year-old. It te eafe to say that no horse ever broke onto the front page of the newspapers as often as Morvich. ‘Whatever else, Morvich {n a horse with ‘a personality. ‘The writer made the trip from Jamaica racetrack to Churchill Downe In the cer with him, with his ac- tendants end bodyguard, and no person- ege made much greater progress, for at every atop men crowded around his car to see “the Derby winner.” At the end of the long trip he stepped out of the car and was led down the street throurb a crowd of about 500 curious onlookers, automobile Hghts playing on him end photographers’ flashiights exploding, a@ unruffled as a dray horse. Two nights before the derby was rum Emil Hers told Benjamin Block he would take 6 to 1 he would name © horse that would beat Morvich the frst time they met. That horse wes Whitney's Whiskaway. Whiskaway beat Morvich tn the Cart- ton Stakes at Aqueduct at one mile more casily than Morvich had beaten Whisi- away when they met as two-year-olds. ‘They met again fn the $50,000 Kentuciy Special at Latonia and Morvich was lucky to be third. It was the beginning of the end. It ts « cotncidence thet Morvich was beaten tn his thirteenth start. He never won @ race after that. His last was at Belmont Park this fait, when he finished unplaced. It may be sald in passing thet he ao- cepted every engagement for which a¢ was named overnight—even in the Carl- ton Stakes, In which Mr. Block started him in spite of the pleadings of his trainer. During his racing career of two seasons Morvich started sixteen times; won twelve races, was second twice, third once and unplaced once, His winnlags In purses and takes amounted to $172,910.87. This fall Morvich developed osstets, and {t was etated that he would be punch-fired and turned out for the sea- son, It may be that racing has not seen the last of Morvich. After a season of two In the stud he may be brought Back and win fame again, as Oxden end many other good horees He wan heralded as or greater than Man O' Wi back to Man O' War's second home in Kentucky. It may be that he was only a sprinter after all—{t may be that his hard early preparation for the Kentucky Derby was too much for him—it may be his legs went back on him. But he ren a good race in the derhy and his best race in the Pimlico Futurity @ year ago, ‘and that day he could have beaten any man’s horse.
