WILDCATS NEED ONE MORE WIN National Title Depends On Victory Over Notre Dame Saturday Chicago, Nov. 17. — (U.R) — One more hurdle to clear and thv myth Ileal national gridiron championship belongs to Northwestern. Bnt the football fates, who smiled on Northwestern the day the Wildcats clawed Minnesota off the throne, may desert the Big Ten (humpions in their quest of a national gridiron empire. Notre Dame — the team North-1 western bhjsted off the pinnacle a year ago—now bars the Wildcats' . path to a perfect season. The tables have been turned on Northwestern, and the situation for Saturday's battle between the two arch enemies of th* gridiron is almost the exact reverse of a year ago. Northwestern stormed into South Bend last year and smashed Notre Dames perfect record a week as- 1 ter the Irish had scored their dramatic 18-13 triumph over Ohio State. Now the Wildcats stalk into South Bend seeking the same laurels they deprived the Irish of a year ago. And Notre Dame, beaten twice, is ready to collect in full for the only defeat suffered in 1935. As the two teams prepare for the nation's No. 1 game Saturday. Northwestern is on the downgrade and Notre Dame on the upswing. Since the Wildcats ended Minnesota's 21-gatne win'ning streak they have hit the skids and had close calls with the Big Tens two weakest teams. Wisconsin and Michigan. Notre Dame, which has been alternately hot and cold all season, hit its peak against Army last Saturday and there is evidence in the Irish camp that they'll hold their form in the last two games against Northwestern and Southern Cali-; forffia. The Irish came through the 20-6 Army victory practically unscathed and will be bolstered by the return to duty of two regulars. Vic Wojcinhovski. right halfback, and Steve Miller, fullback. On the basis of comparative scores —a treacherous yardstick— Notre Dame holds the upper hand. Notre Dame beat Ohio State, 7-3. compared to North western's 14-13 victory over the Buckeyes. The Irish conquered Wisconsin, 27-0, while the Wildcats were pressed To triumph over the Badgers. 2618. Coach Lynn Waldorf frankly admits he is mystified over Northwesterns relapse. “I don't know whether they are merely coasting or have slipped after reching their peak against Minnesota," confessed Waldorf. “It's the funniest team I ever coached. They play only hard enough to win." In six conference games Northwestern's biggest margin of victory was 11 points each over lowa and Illinois, both second division teams. Wisconsin and Michigan, the Big Ten's two weakest teams, yielded to Northwestern by eight and nine points, respectively. The Wildcats won over Ohio State by one point, and conquered Minnesota by six. Thus Northwestern's average margin of victory in Big Ten competition was a mere 7 2-3 points. But Northwestern clearly demonstrated in both the Ohio State and Minnesota games that it can rise to the occasion if menaced by defeat. The big question is whether the Wildcats can come back to their October form. Waldorf, noted for his ability to develop November teams, now has the job of bringing an October team back to its peak after hitting a November slump.

* Today’s Sport Parade ♦ ♦ Pinehurst. N. C„ Nov. 17. —(U.R) —lt was six In the evening at Pinc-j hurst, and th* first day of tiring in the P. G A. tournament had been over for an hour. The locker room was deserted. So was the caddy bouse. For the players had gone to tn* big hotel on the hill for dinner, and the j laughing black bag-toters to their : cabins in the pines for supper. Deep dusk had settled over the club house, and the only signs of life came from the stragglers in the "19th" hole, und the reporters irounding out their stories upstairs. Out on the course it was so dark that visibility was limited to the distance of a mashie pitch, and a chill wind whistled through the trees along the fairway. It was time for golfers and spectators alike to put warm drink or warm food under their belts. Rut out on the course, muffled in sweaters, defying the cold and the dark, was a competitor in the P. G. A. tournament. 1 heard the "dick” of a wood against a ball and. curious to know what ambitious youngster still was working on his shots, 1 walked out to the practice tee. He was so absorbed in his shots that he didn't even turn around, and as it was too dark to distinguish his face. 1 spoke. “Getting pretty late, isn't it?” I asked. “Yeah,” came the answer. "But I got some things that need straightening out.” I knew that voice. I had heard it on scores of courses, in dozens of locker rooms. It belonged to Walter Hagen. The “ambitious youngster” was the ol' Haig. Maybe I'm wrong, and this isn't a story at all, but somehow it got me to see the 43 year-old veteran out there in the dark, long after everybody had quit, working, working. working on his shots. The ol' Haig, who has been going to the golfing wars for better than a quarter of a century, "Sir Walter," five times winner of the P. G. A., four times home in front in the British open, twice national open champion, and winner of heaven only knows how many lesser titles. Hagen, still trying to improve a game that has been one of the best the world ever knew for so many years. He didn't like his opening round of 77, even though it was gained in a high wind and over one ot the longest and most treacherous courses in the world. He didu t care for that 77. even though it matched the score of many fine golfers whom he spots nearly a score of years, and was his first competitive effort in many a week, lie didn't like It, so he was trying to do something about it. I left him out on the hill, because it was too cold for me. As I walked back to the warmth of the club house I wondered if 1 hadn't just been given an explanation of why Walter Hagen, ever WANTED FURS—Muskrat, Skunk, Opossum. Weasel, Coon, Mink.
