Feature Frays Close State College Card — Yale-Harvard, Army-Navy in East

TWO HOMECOMING TILTS ON FINAL BIG SATURDAY Old Grads Return at Indiana and Wabash Franklin vs. Earlham —Haskell the Attraction in Indianapolis. The grand wind-up of college football activities in Indiana will be staged Saturday, featured by a number of games in which old rivals meet. Purdue Pauw invades the Wabash camp, Franklin goes to Earlham and Rose Poly and State Normal tangle in Terre Haute.

There should be plenty of action in those contests for the most sophisticated of football fans. If a team does not fight in the final fray with a rival of long standing, there is something bo hopelessly wrong that all the coaches in the land could not correct the weakness. Gala Days Planned Homecoming programs will be the drawing card for alumni at Indiana and Wabash. Big “doings,” starting with pep sessions tonight and ending with dances on Saturday night, make this a gala week-end. Here in Indianapolis the Haskell Indians are the big attraction at Irwin field. Much interestt has been aroused in the Redskin team and a fine crowd is expected. In practice Thursday the Indians looked big and oapable. Butler, no doubt, is in for a tough afternoon Tech Prepared for X. D. Notre Dame has no easy assignment in its Carnegie Tech game at Pittsburgh. The eastern team rested last Saturday so as to be in tiptop form. Most of them are all “set” when they hit the Irish. Notre Dame is the favorite to win. Don Miller is out of the game for the Irish. Defiance plays at Valparaiso and Hanover takes on Georgetown of Kentucky. Two games are scheduled by Hoosier teams for Thanksgiving. Notre Dame plays St. Louis University there and Wabash takes on the Tennessee Medics at Memphis, Tenn.

NOTRE DAME’S SUCCESS IS EXPLAINED

H 7 HERE do you disr them HP?” Knute Rocknd smiled when that question was put to him, asking him for an explanation of how he turned out his wonder teams year after year, regardless of the players lost through graduation. "First, Notre Dame, because of the fact that

It believes In athletics, creates a desire in many school athletes to enter our Institution," said Rockne. "This makes for good material, which makes for a successful coach. “An attempt is made to interest every boy who enters Notre Dame in some form of athletics. Often a student who did little or nothing as a high school athlete, probably because of lack of interest, develops into a college star. "Notre Dame spirit gets the students out on tie football field, regardless of previous records as school athletes. This enables the coaches to pick up many a great player who would otherwise be overlooked In the shuffle. "After our decisive defeat of the Army and Princeton, the report was circulated in some quarters that Notre Dame was rather lax as to the eligibility rules. That is a very erroneous and undeserved impression. Few schools are much stricter as to the standing of their athletes in class work.” It is very unfair to Notre Dame for any one to question the status of men

Look back at the freshman team of two years ago, 1921, and the line-up reveals a backfleld made up of Stunl dreher, Layden, Crowley and Don Miller. They are the backfleld stars of the 1923 combination. In the line there was Adams, Walsh, Stange, Miller, Vergara, Collins and Kiser, now starring on the varsity. The freshman team of 1921, aside from scrimmaging against the varsity, played two games as freshmen, losing to Lake Forest Academy, 21 to 0, and the Michigan Aggies freshmen, 10 to 6. The freshmen players of 1921 compose the varsity of 1923. Two years ago the crack Notre Dame team of today was a green bunch of freshmen, easy for preparatory and freshmen teams.

BIG TEN CENTERS GRID INTEREST ON ANN ARBOR CLASH Gopher-Michigan Fray Expected to Be Thriller —lllini Conceded Victory, By EDWARD DERR. United Tress Staff Correspondent. CHICAGO. Nov. 23. —With Zuppke’s lllini practically conceded a victory over Ohio State Saturday, interest in the football in the Big Ten Conference centered today on the game between Michigan and Minnesota at Ann Arbor. Michigan, crippled and somewhat battered by its hard-earned victory over Wisconsin last week, faces the hardest test of the season. Minnesota, led by the great triple attack of Martineau, hopes ,to dump the Wolverines from their position in a tie with Illinois for the title. East, Daring Frenchman Martineau, slight of build but fast and daring, is perhaps the greatest back field man in the middle west. On his slender but sturdy frame the Northmen believe they can win. Should the shaky Michigan crew upset the Gophers, however, Yost's charges will complete their schedule undefeated and will tie Illinois for the Big Ten championship. But down along the Miami valley in Ohio the story is told differently. There the word is being passed about that Ohio State will arise to undreamed of strength and crush the fast-running attack of Illinois. Buckeyes Watch Grange Hopes of the Buckeyes may be well founded. Critics of Zuppke's lllini have pointed out, not without foundation, that the team is too dependent upon Grange, the flashy half back, who set a Big Ten record when he scored three touchdown’s in twenty minutes. Ohio will center Its defense against Grange. In other Big Ten games Chicago meets Wisconsin at Stagg Field, lowa and Northwestern clash at Evanston and Indiana and Purdue mix at Bloomington. Y. P.

FRIDAY, NOV. 23, 1923

Here in Boston, in proximity to the heart of Harvard, confidence in the Harvard varsity eleven has wavered to the point where the only hope expressed is: “Harvard will fight, and a fighting team always has a chance.” For a big city, Boston takes its Har-vard-Yale game seriously. Shop windows on the busv streets were filled with Blue and Crimson banners and conversation everywhere was confined to the game. Harvard students know the dope points against them this year and they are insisting that Yale is a 7-to-2 bet. Yale money was being offered at this price, also. Harvard hopes also that Yale will go into the game with too much confidence and Harvard men are doing and saying everything to encourage Yale into believing that it has an unbeatable team. 2TOI ON THE CADETS ' Army Heavy Favorite to Put Navy Goat on Run.
