WILDCATS PLAN OFFENSIVE MINUS FAMED RUSSELL Loss Os Fullback Is Not Causing Worry In Northwestern Camp Chicago. Oet. S. (U.P) -The loss of Reb Russell, ltne-ripping fullback. has filled to dishearten Northwestern in its preparation to stop Notre Dame's string of 20 straight victories at Soldier Field Saturday. "It's the toughest break we could got at this time," said Coach Dick Hanley, “but what’s the use of moaning about it. Notre Dante lost a fullback, too, and they’re not crying. Well, we are all even now. each with a fullback out of the game. But don’t think we won’t have a team out there that will give them a battle." Oliver Olson, whose talented toe and long passes promise to play an important part in Northwestern’s attack, has stepped into Russell’s berth. Olson is a tall, rangy sophomore who is so good that he was pushing Russell for his- regular job, even in the first few weeks on the varsitv sound # With Russell in the game, Notre Dame knew what kind of attack to expect but with the hard-hitting fullback laid up with injuries, Northwestern probably will play a more open game instead of relying on power plays. Northwestern's new hackfield of Totter, Meenan, Rentner and Ol- , son lacks experience, but it is long on speed, versatility and determination. Rentner is the most dang-

1 erous man in the group, but any one of the quartet is likely to get away for a long run from Hanley’s deceptive attack. Luck of reserve strength is Northwestern’* biggest weakness, if any of the first string hacks should get hurt the Wildcats would he handicapped. But as long as Potter, Meenan, Rentner and Olson are in the game the Wildcats will not have to worry about their hackfield. S-mth Tend. Oct. S. (U.R) —The ! lines of Notre Dame and Northwestern are about'equal strength ‘ and the young hackfield players on the two rival teams probably will decide Saturday’s battle in Sold ier Field, in Coach Heartly Anderson’s opinion. Anderson said he expected to see i the young players in both hack- 1 field irfake mistakes, and that these ■ probably would decide the game.! Marchy Schwartz, left halfback, is the only veteran in the Notre Dame | hackfield, while Pug Rentner, right 1 halfback, is the only veteran in the j Northwestern hackfield. Rentner. however, did not play last year | against Notre Dame because of an j injured shoulder. Jesse C. Harper. Notre Dame j athletic director, expressed regret j over the loss of Russell to the j Northwestern team. "Whether Notre Dame wins or i 5 loses 1 would have been more sat- 1 isfied if Northwestern had been j able to send its full strength against j us." said Harper. "1 expect Saturday’s game to be one of the best of the year and the team that wins | may go on to f n undefeated rec- ! ord.’’ Chicago, Oct.

ATHLETICS ON WAY TO CARD STRONGHOLD 5 ' Mackmen Must Win Two Straight To Secure Third Straight Title • s' Enroute to St. Louis, with the Philadelphia Athletics, Oct. 8. (U.R) —Faced with tlie task of winning -two consecutive games to retain i ■ their world’s baseball champion-1 ship, the Philadelphia Athletics i sped westward today for the sixth i game with the Cardinals in St.! [ Louis Friday. Despite the Cards' 5 to 1 victory, yesterday the A s managed to retain their following and the North | . Philadelphia station was crowded last night as the Athletics special ■ pulled out. The fans, most of them boys and j ■ middle-aged baseball fans, had ap-j .; plause for each player. "Attahov, Mickey, you do it f"j ■ Mickey Cochrane, catcher, would! , wave and grin. Jimmy Foxx. hard-hitting first , I baseman would march by. "(let some more homers like that one yesterday!” Jimmy would Half blush and hurry | I along. Robert Moses (Lefty) Grove, I walked up the stairs. “Come on. j j Lefty; you'll get ’em!" Lefty would take a couple of extra puffs on his ; cigar and scowl. But today the Athletics had; plenty to think about. Connie Mack is 68 now, and it's unreasonable to expect that he will i have another chance to score the, | hitherto unheard of feat of win-j ning three series in a row. If Mack does come through and achieve his third straight victory, he’ll go down in baseball record ; books not only as a genial, kindly I I gentleman, but as something of ai miracle man as well. For make no mistake, the A's are' IUP against it. The regulars are ofT | their hitting form. The pitching (staff is shot. The best that Mack : can do is to pitch big George Earn-! shaw on Friday and pray for rain' the next day to give Grove a com-1 , i plete rest. Mack is definitely displeased with i ' the performance of some of his; ■! first-stringers. He made a shake ! ■up yesterday, sending in McNair . for Bishop, and Moore for Haas. These shifts were made indirectly, to startle the remaining regulars. Things aren’t so had with the Cards. They can start Murleigh j . Grimes on Friday, and if necessary,' I j Paul Derringer on Saturday. The Athletics talked more about | , a rival player than about them- j j selves. Os course, their subject is Pepper Martin, flashy I'enter field--or of tile Cards who yesterday ! equalled two world series records.! The first came in making 12 hits.' The second was In batting in four! j runs in a single series game. I That fifth game had all kinds of j baseball, good pitching and bad, | ! sparkling hitting, daring base run ; ! ning and umpiring the funs could ■ | question and did. It had three! | heroes. Martin, Hallahan and Sim-1 j mons. Martin’s fame, of course was acquired at hat where he got three j (hits, including a homer, in four) turns. Hallahan’s usually dependable pitching for the Cards won him glory. Simmons was the Athj letics offensive star with three h-t* ; in four turns. Aboard Cardinals Special, en route to St. Louis. Oct.

"Don’t know what happened." Pepper said, when asked why he had a plaster on his left ear. "But | I got an awful sting while 1 wars under that darned shower.
