Butler-Notre Dame Crowning State Event —Yale Wildly Confident in East

LOCALS IN SHAPE FOR MOST IMPORTANT TILT Indiana Grid Title at Stake in Game at South Bend Wa--bash vs, Indiana at Bloomington, The State college grid title is at stake Saturday, when Butler and Notre Dame meet at South Bend. Interest in the contest has because of the Irish loss to Nebraska. Before the Cornhusker victory over Rockne’s outfit, the South Bend team, was considered almost unbeatable because of its impressive triumphs. The locals are given a chance now, although it is an outside one.

Most anything can happen !n football these days with the element of chance more pronounced because of the open play. Butler is at the very height of its form at this time. Bruised at Nebraska On the other hand there is a feeling that Notre Dame Is not at its best. The players were considerably bruised up in the Nebraska game. Their confidence was jolted along with their muscles. This situation may work like a boomerang on Butler, however. The Irish may be fighting mad and display all their old time -dash in an effort to run up a bigger score than Illinois. Just which of these opposite lines of dope is true will not be known until late Saturday afternoon when the score is flashed to the thousands of interested arid fans. Local Rooters to Attend A number of local enthusiasts will follow the Irvington team to South Bend for the battle. Wabash, for the first time in a number of years, will get a chance at Indiana Saturday. The game is to be played at Bloomington. Northwestern Is at Purdue in the Boilermakers’ home-coming game.

EVERY GRID MACHINE HAS ITS SPARK.

H . N automobile A doesn’t get any--1 v where unless it has a fast, hot spark to ignite things and set the cogs of the machine in motion," says Rockne. "A football machine is not unlike an automobile—lt must have its sparks, often It is well to have several of them. "I try to make every player on my team, from

the star to the lowly sub, foel that he is the spark that is helping keep tne machine in motion. I do this be cause when I sen t anew player into the game I want him to feel that upon his playing depends the continued success of the team in that particular game and the season as a whole.” After once seeing the Notre Dame eleven in action it is an easy matter to see that Rockne has been successful in his efforts. Every player on the Notre Dame squad plays as If inspired. That Is why the Notre Dame team is known ks the “Fighting Irish.” Ir, a way that title is a bit of a misnomer, since there are many players In the squad who have no Celtic blood in their veins.

ROCKNE

There may be other coaches as dynamic in personality. But it is questionable if there is a single coach in the country who is able to instill his personality and football knowledge into a team as does Knute Rockne. Rockne dominates from the moment he steps on the field. A keen analyst, with an ever-watchful eye, he quickly discerns the slightest flaws and always has a remedy. Faultless play does not pass unnoticed. It is this spirit of fairness which makes the players take every correction wltn a grim smile and a determination to remedy the deCsa*. Praise is intermingled with reproof and both are given in a manner that carries weight.

27 in Squad Twenty seven Butler varsity men boarded the train for South Bend at noon today for the State championship tilt with Notre Dame Saturday. The Blue and White rooters will follow on a special train Saturday morning. A special section has been arranged on Cartier Field for Butler enthusiasts. Students and alumni are expected to number 500. Coach Page of l'utler is taciturn about the outcome of the struggle. He has not said anything to the student body and all the pepping he has been administering to his players has been behind scenes.

WINNER MUST HAVE SPEED AND SURPRLSE

After watchin 7 one practice session, it is an easy matter to see who produces the many sparks that flicker on the Notre Dame squad. The sparks are the offspring of Notre Dame s football dynamo. Coach Knute K. Rockne. There may be other coaches who know as much football as Rockne, but none more.

CROWD OF 80,000 LIKELY AT ‘BIG THREE’ CONTEST 1 Eli Students Offer Bets Out of Proportion in Eagerness to Mb Back Warriors —Tigers in Scrappy Mood, By HENRY L. FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 16.—Frowned on by faculty and coaches who are stressing the danger of over-confidence, the Yale student body is all prepared for the big snake dance in front of the Princeton side of the Yale bowl Saturday. So sure is the campus that, Captain Mallory’s Yale team will win from the Princeton Tigers, that bets of 12 to 5 are being offered that way.

Warnings that more than 2 to 1 is a stretched margin on any football game, Yale under-graduates counter with a stopper—“if it’s sucker jjdoney, take it.” Elis Feel All-Powerful l r ale has waited so long for a championship that the possibilities shown by the varsity team in the earlier games of the season have worked the Elis out of all sense of proportion. Despite the vigilance of the coaches and their efforts to counter-act the optimistic atmosphere that saturates the campus, the players have become infected**ivith the same idea that Princeton is already beaten. Figures show that the only handicap Yale may have to carry in the game will be a mental hazard. Physically the squad is in good shape. Situation of Tigers The Tigers have aything to lose and everything to gain. In a desperate desire to win, Princeton can Violate every rule of strategy and zone play. Lyle Richeson, the fine Yale quarter back, Is in shape to play and he will direct the team. "Century” Milstead, whom Army coaches termed the finest tackle they have ever played against, will be on the line. Bill Mallory, Ducky Pond and Widdy Neale, will be' hack of Richeson. Every ticket for the game was sold weeks ago. The attendance Is sure o reach 80,000. State highway officials estimate that they wil 1 have to handle 25,000 automobiles.
