IT’S an old saying among football men that on the gridiron backfield men get the cheers and the linesmen get the bruises. The spectacular ball carrier gels all the praise and the publicity, but the humble linesman who opens the path enabling the backfield star to get off on a long run is forgotten when football fans celebrate the heroes of the game. In fact, you might say the linesman is the real “Forgotten Man.” For the most part the boys who play on the line blossom unseen simply because the ordinary spectator has eyes only for the ball, and misses everything that occurs in front of the play. Now and then, of course, there comes a linesman who by his very stature and picturesqueness grabs the spotlight. “Germany” Schultz was such a one at Michigan in the old Yost days. “Germany” was so

NOTRE DAME AND WILDCATS MEET South Rend Battle Tomorrow is Most Important On Schedule I Chicago. Nov. 11. —dJ.P.) — Four of the nation's outstanding football : names, involving leaders from the 'east, midwest. Pig Ten and Big Six. will be played on midd e western gridirons tomorrow. No. 1 on the list is the Notre I Dame-Northwestern battle at South Bend which will come close to taxiing the brown brick stadium near (the golden dome to its 52,000 capacity. Wisconsin and Minnesota, oldest Big Ten rivals, will hold the conference spot ight with their contest before 35.000 at Madison. The other two important games games are intersectional battles between Pittsburgh and Nebraska at Lincoln and Ohio State and Pennsylvania at Columbus , Michigan and Purdue, the two unbeaten Dig Ten leaders, ate expected to continue their victorious 'campaign by winning from Chicago jand lowa, respectively. The other Rig Ten game brings together Illinois and Indiana at Champaign. The fact both Notre Dame and Northwestern hSve been beaten has taken little of the edge of the 12th game ot their 43-year-old series. Some of the most vicious gridiron conflicts in recent years have been between Notre Dime and Northwestern, with the Irish usually winning hut always forced to give everything they had tc conquer the Wildcats. The immortal Four Horsemen ol 1924 barely beat Northwestern, 13 6. and the next year Northwester! led. 19-0. at halftime only to lost eventually. 13-10. That was th< day Knute Rockne deserted hit team between halves wth th< words, "Well, you're going to hav<

big and so rangy that you couldn’t overlook him—couldn’t lose him in the mass. Jack Cannon at Notre Dame was another linesman who caught the public’s fancy. He played without a hcadguard and his black thatch stood out conspicuously among the leather-helmeted craniums on the football field. I >ne play is very tough, and compared with it the backfield man’s job is a cinch, as “Swede” Oberlander said when he was switched from the line to the backfield. While the linesmen as a rule fail to catch the public eye, the ends often fare better This is because the flankers are often great pass receivers. so that an end like Benny Oosterbaan of Michigan became just as famous as Benny Friedman, the other half of the great Fried-man-to-Oosterbaan pass combination.

Notre Dame, after the Pitt de- : at. is gath. ring power for iw remaining important games against ; Army and Southern California, and; ir expected to beat Northwestern: by a comfortable margin. North-: western is perhaps 50 per cent; stronger than its record reveals, and has wasted more energy than any team in the west.

Yost once said that Ooster baan never took an unnecessary I step, and the same may be said of i Petoskey. t Ted is a very capable backfield performer, as well as a great end ' and Kipke uses him in the fullback ‘ position on occasion.
