Leahy Seeking Perfect Season For Notre Dame Chicago. Nov. I—(UPl—Flve times during his brilliant 13 year head coaching *P-*n »• Notre Dame, the late Knute Rock nr fed the Irish through utidef>-at»d and untl ed aeasona In the II rMwiu since ’ Rock's" death the creen shirted Ramblers never have been able to come up with a perfect record, but SS-yeai ohl Frank l-euhy hoped today to accomplish the feat Since Rockne's death five coaches “Hunk" Anderson. Elmer l<ayden. Ed McKeever, Hughie Devore and le*ahy have maintained Notre Dame's ranking as the nation's most consistently powerful foot hall team, but through their sueevasive regimes the perfect season never has been attained. Whether Leahy attaint the cherished ambition of an undefeated and untied campaign may be deter mined Saturday when Notre Dame meets Army at New York in one of tile great contests of modern collegiate history and a battle that figures to decide th- national championship. If Notre Dame can defeat Army It will Im* the overwhelming choice t> "go all the way" even though Northwestern, Tulane and South ern California will still remain on the schedule Leahy has one of the most remarkable records of any coach in the nation He is In his sixth sea son as a head coach and over that Stretch h« teams at Boston College and Notre Dame have won 49 games, lost five and tied three. Twice during his tenure at Notre Dame Leahy han Just missed the coveted undefeated and untied cam palgn, In bin first season at Notre Dame tn 1941, I**ahy's record was marred only by a scorelsws tie with Army. Two years later, the Irish rolled to nine straight triumphs and then had the long sought "perfect" season slip from its grasp when Great latkes scored In the final minute of play to gain a 19 to 14 victory. While Leahy is a staunch dieciple of the "we play them one at a time" theme, there is little doubt

There's a single, but significant ’ line, in the Notre Dame football prospectus which reads: "worst ' defeat, ail time. 1944--Army 59. Notre Dnme 0.” Th it's a line which rankles Leahy and hie "four deep" squad and the time is at hand t > do something about it. 1 i While some competent football experts have found fault with Notre Dame's line play in it* last two games against lowa and Navy, the cold records sh w the Irish havej granted only 1* points in five 1 games, while rolling up 177 themselves. Notre Dame admittedly hasn't a back who can match the blinding speed of Army's Glenn Davie, but it figures to possess just as great power "Inside" with .firn Mello. Corny Clatt and Johnny Panelli as "Doc" Blanchard provide the Cadets. Only three schools—Princeton. ’Michigan and Yale possess records of more undefeated and untied seasons than Notre Dame.

The university’s faculty athletic committee announced that it had voted in favor of a proposed fiveyear agreement with the Pacific coast conference at a regular meet Ing yesterday The affirmative vote, which followed recommendations of the school's athletic board, reportedly brought the conference's poll of membens to 4 to ! in favor of lhe plan. Northwestern still must vote on the plan. Big nine officials reported last week that preliminary discussions with the Pacific conference repre sen tat Ives already had begun. Under the participation plan the big nine would send its football champion to Pasedena to represent the east for three straight New Year’s dsy classics.

Today's Sport Parade | By Oscar Fralsy (Rsg. U. B. Rat. Off.) O—— -o New York. Nov. 5 — (UP) — Denny Myers, the Boston College football coach, probably will try to deny It but the evidence Is at hand today that he was something in common with old fearless Fraley. To save Denny's morale from complete disintegration. It might be fair to add hastily that there is a non-conforming department. In thia category. Myers is handsome; he walks without help; his clothes fit; he eats regularly and he breathes. But Denny marches shouldertoshould with old fearless in picking Notre Dame to beat Army In the big foot brawl this .Saturday. "By 20 or 30 polnta,” Myers murmured In the dulcet tones of a high-powered fog horn. That makes him the extremist of a small band of diebards. I think, as vice president of tbe Notre Dame subway alumni chowdei and marching society, that 13 or 14 would bis a bit closer. And don't forget that it was fearless who daringly gave you Georgia over Furman. Sure, Georgia won 70 to 7, but I picked It didn't 17 But it's awfully lonesome over In the Notre Dame cheering section around these parts. Just because the stadium tremides every time the Army earthquake rushes out on the field, the typewriter termites in these parts think tbe Cadets are a shooln. In a poll of 40 writers at the weekly football luncheon. 35 of them picked the West Pointers. That means only five chose the fighting skis and their Irishman. One of those was a ringer from the mid went. Bill Fox of the Indianapolis News. My four other pitied partners were office agents overcome by tny Notre Dame patter. Steve Snider and Carl lutndquiet, along with Jim McCulley of the New York Dally News and Joe King of the World-Telegram. They'll have to hustle for their own alibis. The overwhelming opposition Incluues some of the smartest football writers in the country. Including the boss. I*w H. Peterson (smart fellow, fearless, needs a raise).

Molotov Fights Acceptance Os Paris Treaties Russian Minister Shows No Signs Os Accepting Treaties New York. Nov. 5 — (DPI The Pari* deadlock between eaM and west over the Hitler satellite trestles prevailed today as lhe big four council of foreign mini sters prepared to hear Yugoslavia and Italy argue their respective claims to Trieste and Its hinterland. Soviet foreign minister VlacheSlav M. Molotov showed no signs of accepting peace treaty recommendation* which were adopted at the Paris peace conference by a two thirds western nation majority. The council's second New York meeting (3:30 p. HI., EST) will be devoted to hearing representative of Yugoslavia and Italy if they are ready to present their cases — probably for the last time. Otherwise the council will proceed with examination of the Italian peace treaty articles on which the conference at Paris voted by a two thirds majority —a western majority — to change or add to the drafts originally written by the hlg four. The next major disputed Issues involve economic clauses — compensation for damaged United Nations property In Italy and a prohibition against exclusive aviation agreements with any country — and the western nation proposal to use the new world court as a court of final appeal In event of disputes over a treaty Interpretation. Molotov made good his threat, mad* In his final major speech at the Paris peace conference, to oppose at thia big four meeting any conference recommendations the Soviets opposed in Paris even If they had obtained a two thirds majority vote. Even since his arrival here, for the United Nations assembly. Molotov has bitterly denounced the system of voting at Paris where time and again the west outvoted the east, usually fifteen to six. At the first council meeting yesterday at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel. Molotov in effect used his veto by objecting to final adop tion of the Paris conference recommendations: 1. To write into the Italian treaty the Austro Italian agreement made outside the conference and independently of the big four over the disputed south Tyrol area Under It Italy guarantees certain rights to the German speaking population. 2. To give Greece and Yugoslavia equal reparations from Italy — 1100,000,000 each. Molotov wanted his friend Marshal Tito to get twice as much as Greece, while secretary of state James F. Byrnes and British foreign minister Ernest Bevin defended Greece with Byrnes countering Molotov with the suggestion that Greece should get more than Yugoslavia. Molotov's opposition to Paris recommendations was not a surprise, although It had been hoped he wouldn't exercise his veto on every issue to which he was opposed at Pkris. Without Ms vote there can be no agreement since council unanimity is needed to write the final treaty. x

REPORT AIR iCeetlawsd From Pw«s o««) than 100 large Denver grocery stores since last Thursday, rhe agreement will be submitted l 0 1.250 strikers for ratification Transcontinental A Western Air, Inc. and the 1.400 striking pilots agreed on all but t Wu points of the government's pun to settle the strike pending arhltrntion. The air line objected to lhe government's proposal for computing the salaries of over seas pilots. TWA officials said the government plan would pre vent the air line from getting an arbitration decision on a fiat wage rate for overseas flyers. Such pilots now get a bonus so overseas service, and the striking Airline Pilots* association (AFL) wants the present method of salrry computation continued. The other disputed point concerns grievance machinery. Union president David Behncke said the union had accepted the goverament's settlement plan. and charged the air line with "staL ling." In tbe west coast shipping strike, a settlement was announced on the Issue of union jurisdiction in the unloading of coastwise steam schooners. The strike continued, however, as waterfront employers brought up unexpected demand* on the CIO longshoremen's union. The employers demanded among other things that the union withdraw Its <<.000,000 damage suit for alleged failure to hand out retroactive pay Increa see before the Oct. 31 deadline They alao demanded a guarantee from the union that there would be no more shipping tie-ups resulting from jurisdictional union arguments. Coal contract negotiations were In recess because of the elections as miners took the day off to vote. Discussions between the government and the United Mine Worker* (AFL) will resume tomorrow. Meanwhile, government sources reported that wildcat strikes had spread to 54 mines, making 9.200 miners idle and cutting production by 50,000 tons per day. In the (notion picture Industry, the conference of studio unions, which started a jurisdictional strike six weeks ago. said there was no point in returning to work without a wage increase and picketed 20th Century-Fox studios. At West Aills, Wis., federsl conciliator Noel Fox conferred with officials of Allis-Chalmers Mfg. Co. and then with representatives of the striking CIO United Automobile Workers in an attempt to get them together for negotiations. Meanwhile, vto lence apparently had aubaided in the 199-day walkout. The company closed its plant today to prevent election day violence on lhe picket lines. PROPOSES UN G>Btt*u44 Frdm Psge Geel 3.
