IRISH, ALABAMA ARE COMPARED New York, Jan. 2 (U.»-South-erii football fans have been arguing all nlon-' that tough Notre D»me had one »v. et football t am. the Irish were not one whit better than tho Red Elephants, as the Alabama boys are known in th ■ Red-Clay country. I Notre Dame swept through a ten -ani 1 * schedule without u setback. So did Alabama. Notre. Darm-'s outstanding performance was u 27 to o victory over Southern California. Albania's big moment was a 21 to 0 defeat of Washington Stale the team that whipp d Southern California 7 to 6. Om* might say Notre Dame’s ten .gam s were with much stronger teams than those played by AlaIl,ama. but there is room for arguintent then. In our opinion the two i schodul -s are a toss tip. Here they | are: Alabama Notre Dame Howard So. Methodist Mississippi Navy Si wanee Caimgie Tech . Tennessee Pittsburgh I Vanderbilt Indiana Kentucky Pennsylvania Florida Drake Louisiana Northwestern ! Georgia Army Washington S. So. California Team against team, which is the I strongest? Let’s take them in order and one at a time. S. M. IT. appeared better than! Howard; Navy stronger than Mississippi, and Carnegie Tech better than Sewanee. Three points for Notre Dame. Here come four points, however, 1 j tor Alabama. Tennessee over] Pittsburgh; Vanderbilt over Indiana; Kentucky over Pennsylvania, and Florida over Drake. Continuing: Northwestern was better than , Louiaiana and Army a shade better than Georgia, giving Notre Dame five schedule points against four for Alamaba. Then comes [Southern California against Washington State and as the Cougars whipped the Trojans. Alabama gets a point here and the two schedules are a stand-off.

| Alabama supporters In making n; case for their team would have yon | remember Inat Notre Dame, b • cans.* of Its proximity to Chicago,] gets II running start over Alabama in tho matter of publicity. And publicity, they point out. has yeti to spoil a good team's chances of, being rated us great. A'so, they argue, this country] has b< come afflicted with a KnutHockn -Notre Dam - complex That) Is, to the average football fan. foot , bull and Notre Dame are symmonions, und the A. F. F. Is willing, to concede the Irish the national) championship before the season is] more than started. Os course, the relative strength) of the two teams will never be I known. The only way to have set-] t ed the argument would have been i for the two teams to get out there on the grass and fight it out. That, of course, didn't happen. A little speculation, however, doesn't cost a thing. Alabama, had they played Notre Dame, would undoubtedly have ben bothered by the cunning and sp<- d with which Rockne’s lads carried out their I assignments. Just as true is the] fact that Notre Dame, had they played Alabama, would have he-It i worried by the southerns' tremen ] ] dons power. Then the Northwest rn game 1 i proved that if Notre Dann* had a ! weakness it lay in an inability to] | cop - with blazing line play. Reb Russell and oth r Northwestern power houses all but broke the Irish forward wall. And power is what Alabama has nothing else I but. An Alabama Notre Dame game would have been an exhibition of] magnificent blocking. Both Rockne] and Wade are staunch b lievers in . blocking—perfect blocking.

iWRM. rSwt - ! Alabama beat Washington State at th* Rose tournament yesterday 24-0, which reminds us of the 1924 I> mocratlc national convention — ALABAMA CASTS 21 VOTES FOR UNDERWOOD. —oOo— The Southerners were too strong for the West coast eleven — and with the first stringers in only part of the time the A'abama boys edged in on a Happy New Year with three touchdowns and a field goal. —-000 — AND NOW THE FOOTBALL SEASON IS REALLY OVER. —oOo — Indiana University basketball team won from two eastern net

aggregations the last two days—i Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh — which leads us to believe that the 'crimson team will ( be up in th n money at the end of the conference season. Our pick of the cream is still Purdue, Indiana, Michigan and Northwestern—and as much as wej I hate to say it, Michigan looks pret l ty good this year. | Decatur’s youngest Michigan fan; is Miss Nancy Bell who received a sweater with a large “M” on the ! front of it for Christmas. Her uncle, Fritz Schafer, who attends I chat university brought the highly 'prized sweater to Nancy—and she sure struts her stuff when she wears it. —oOo— Baseball teams will soon be leaving for the south and west for the annual training, prior ! to the opening of ths diamond season next spring——oOo— Which means that there are about seven or eight weeks left of winter. — oOo — \ Pete Reynolds who has been completely converted from being a Suburb booster, will start writing Basketbawls Monday for a while —and any thing he wants to say about Buck, the Suburb sports writer, is O. K. by me. Coach Herb Curtis is starting the Yellow Jackets on the road back to "conditions" as- . ter a ten-day vacation — The Jackets wil get a little practice next Friday night when they meet the Suburbanites.
