GEORGE GIPP REPORTED TO BE DYING

’ George Gipp, brilliant Notre Dame halfback, who is hailed the country over as one of the season’s greatest college players, is gradually growing weaker. His condition Thursday was the lowest since he was stricken with pneumonia, following the Notre Dame-Northwest-ern game. He 'is suffering apw with throat trouble and the toxins of the disease are affecting the whole system. _ Gloom hung over the student body when reports from the sick room were anxiously read. The blood which members of the football team offered in an effort to save the ill-fated athlete’s life has not been transfused. The transfusion would do no good in the opinion of the physicians. Sisters of St. Joseph’s hospital, where Gipp is confined, and doctors attending the Notre Dame athletic idol, have denied persistent rumors that he is dying. His condition was announced as grav? with little or no chance for recovery.
