Sniiiiiim TIRRIN’ the DOPE ) By VEDDER GARD
Af“" "“ILL vmrk and no play does not always make Jack a __J dull boy, but sometimes it breaks down bis health. From reliable sources we learn Coach Knute Rockne is pot in the best health. He has done too much. Some close friends are a bit worried concerning Knute’s condition with a strenuous grid campaign just ahead. His untiring energy at last seems to be feeling the strain of ceaseless endeavor. Rockne has taxed his strength. Like all men of tremendous virile force, he did not realize the strain to which he was subjecting his nervous system. At Notre Dame as atliletic director Rockne has looked after too many minor details that should have been left to some one else. Rockne’s ambitions have kept him constantly on the move. Coaching schqols and football articles have given him' no rest during the summer. The human machine can stand only so much. Last year just before a big game Knute was found busy wdth one hundred and one things that had to be attended to. Requests for tickets were pouring into the office on the day of the game, and Knute was making final plans for the “Pink Tea’’ burlesque football | contest which he staged between halves —a screaming take-off on what football would be in future years played by sheiks and lounge lizards. Somebody asked him if he were not overwhelmed with work. “No," said Rockne, in his characteristic short way, “I’ve got some boys taking up tickets at the gates. I used to do that.” A great student of human nature and a great judge of how much tills body can do, a great psychologist we hope that Knute doesn’t over-estimate his own capacity for work. We hope that he regulates Ills own actions and maps out a campaign for himself with as much astuteness as he shows' in handling a football team. * * * \ v 71 E don’t remember, but probYjuj ably we “played” Princess I Doreen, the great filly, in those two races she ran out of the money. In nineteen starts the thoroughbred was out of the “dough” only twice. Her two bad races were in the East which seems to mean that she doesn’t like train rides. With four such good legs, who wmuld?
O-’ O : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY : o o “Short" prices kept ns from picking . 3P a few more dollars for the bank roll lon Monday. Three out of four winners * and nothing to add to the roll is a record. If we could have brushed the Cobweb away it would have been all right. Ten dollars went blooey when Cobweb spun home In third place. We had him win and place. Gibbons won arul paid only 30 cents on the dollar. Mondny Morning and Christmas Morning were victors, but did not pay much. Santa Claus arrived all right, but he was a stingy cuss and didn’t even fill np one toe of our sock. Dianella and Boon Companion were scratched because of the muddy going. After much figuring we find we h".d a lot of fun and lost 65 cents. The B. R. now stands at $371.60. Today wo have (he sweetest and most enticing parlay any one ever saw or heard about. BEWITCHING. CASINO GIRT., mi. O’ PEP surely should be a winner. The horses are entered in the third at Latonia, fifth at Dorval and fourth at Aurora, respectively. Five dollars across the hoard is the "play.” We will try two others that love the mud at Latonia today. Tjn dollars win and place goes on CHARCOAL In the first and the same on INBOUNDS In the sixth. * * * SHE Grand Circuit races a Syracuse on Monday were staged on the wet weather track. The regular course was too muddy. Some will wonder,about this as the cinder course at the fairground was not used here last week when rain Interfered. Don't wonder any longer. The Syracuse cinder track is as much different from the one at the fairground as day is tonight. The New York State “rain” oval was built at a big expense with of the ingenuity of many ar"rayed against Dame Nature. It has layers of sand and cinders and drains like a sieve, but has almost as good footing and consistency as a regular dirt track. It is not just a few loads of cinders dumped on the ground and rolled. • • mHESE are the trying times that test college freshmen gridders' souls. Coming into the showers muddy, bruised and tired, the yearlings wonder if it is all worth while. Some drop out saying, ‘‘Oh, what’s ihe use?" Others baltle doggedly on, although perhaps not as physically wl fitted or with as much natural ability as those who quit. Those who stick, if they never make the freshman first team or the varsity in future years, have won the first battle. They have taken the first big step forward to manhood. • * * % The brave and undaunted ones who attended the first Ft. Harrisor. boxing show in straw lids probably will venture out tonight in the same headgear. Heroes are born, not made. *' * * That wiQ Be-all said the St. Paul pitcher after that one hit was made off his delivery by Milwaukee on Monday. And that was all. * • * nl-lOSE Butler football play- ■ l r r I ers hurt in practice last BLi.J week have the right idea. If jno is going to gef banged up, get it early and be ready for the big show later. That’s the system. Star gridders have the unhappy faculty of reporting for the hospital just before the “croocial" contest of the season.

ONLY FOUR REGULARS BACK FOR TECH SQUAD Newcomers Appear Strong, However —Coach Mueller, Returned From Rockne School, Full of Ideas.
By Dick Miller Rain, which fell Monday, failed to dampen the ardor of some thirty first-string candidates for the 1925 Technical High School grid team. Instead. It seemed as If the cool breezes that accompanied the raindrops added pep to the "gang'' and the gridders punished the dummy with low tackles, pushed the bucking machine hard, lunged at one another with a vengeance and slid about in the mud as if they were in the midst of a regular game. At the start of practice two weeks ago Head Coach John Mueller, faced a squad of some seventy-five men, and among them saw four men whowere on his last year’s team that copped the city championship. These were: Hicks, a guard; Hickman, a tackle; Balay and Fox, both backfield men. Balay was a member of the Times All-State honor roll selection and all-city selections last year. With these four men as a nucleus. Coach Mueller hopes to build another city champ eleven and cut a figure in the awarding of the State laurels. Two Assistants Mueller is assisted this year by H. E. Chenoweth and \V. E. Cleveland. Cleveland has charge of forty men who were sliced from the regular squad by Mueller, after two weeks’ practice. Chenoweth is assisting with the first squad. During the summer Mueller, who formerly coached at Mishawaka High School and who always has been a great friend of Knute Rockne. coach of Notre Dame, attended the SHE’S SORRY Gertrude Sends Wireless Condolences to I. Helmy. Bn United Press CAPE GRIS NEZ. France. Sept15.—En route home aboard the Mauretania, today, Gertrude Ederle wirelessed back condolences on the failure of I. Helmy, Egyptian swimmer, to master the English channel in his swim Monday. "Sorry,” flashed the American girl, who herself had known defeat by the icy waters. “He's one of the finest sportsmen I ever knew," she said. Helmy was forced to give up his swim Monday night when three and a half miles from Dover. WRESTLERS KEEP BUSY Jack Reynolds Monday went through a program of hard exercises In training for his finish match at the Broadway Theater Thursday night with Leslie Fishbaugh, and this afternoon another strenuous workout was on his schedule. Fishbaugh Is known to be getting in some good licks of training at his home town, Newark, Ohio, and Reynolde expects the Buckeye youngster to put up stubborn resistance. Fishbaugh and Reynolds have met twiqg, each gaining a decision. Charlie Olson probably will return t® the mat as the referee Thursday.
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
coaching school at the Irish institution. It was evident from the time the team trotted on the field and lined up for calisthenics and scrimmage that lots of the Rockne stuff will be used by the Green and White this year. Out of a squad of seven men fighting for end t>erths. Babcock, a giant; Thompson and Rea look the best. Babcock is also a tackle of no mean ability. Morris, Demmary, Cravens and Houser rank about as named 'in ability. The team will miss Clift, former AU-State man. The Tackle Jobs. Only four men are available for the tackle berths. The two foremost are Hickman and Worth. Frye and Smith are battling, but Hickman has one job cinched. His piny seems much better than last year. Four men also are after the guard positions. Again two outshine the other pair. No doubt when Steele High is opposed on Sept. 25, Hicks and Glunt will be next to the center Arzett and Bauermeister are likely reserve men. Hageman and Ringwalt, are staging a scrap for the center position. Bradford, a newcomer, Is also in the thick of tho fight. It’s a toss-up between tho first two. Balay will bo the mainstay of the backfield where it would seem Tech is weak this year. He is now playing quarterback. Fox and Clark are after the signal barker place and if either show anything Mueller probably will shift Balay back to a halfback job, his natural position. Johnson and Adams are the beat of the remaining six hack field men, the others being Stinson, Cain. Diddill and Robinson. All are good allround men. Heavy Line The line probably will average between 170 and ISO from tackle to tackle with the ends cutting down the total lino average. The back field will tip 150 as an average. Coach Mueller admits that the squad looks promising at this early stage. He has a squad of fighting warriors seeking the many open berths. With seven positions to fill with untried stock the season record of the team is somewhat problematical as yet. SCRAPS IN NEW YORK 81l Times Special NEW YORK. Sept 15.—Basil Galiaiio, New Orleans, lost the judges' decision to Jack Zivie, Pittsburgh, in a ten-round scrap here Monday night. They are 140 pound boys. Willie Harmon and Phil (K. O.)

Johnston, Richards, Lacoste and Borotra Credited With Slight Chance to Upset Tourney Favorite. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent FORESff HILLS, N. Sept. 15.—Despite the narrow escapes he has had in practically all of his important matches this season, Bill Tilden seems to be in no grave danger of losing the national tennis championship .which he has held for five years.
There are some of the world’s best players in the field that is competing here in the national championships and there has been a disposition to judge Tilden as being off his game, but it is a safe bet that when the final round Is completed Saturday Tilden will have survived another test. Fischer Eliminated Tilden showed in his first match Monday against the hard-hitting Carl Fischer, former intercollegiate champion, that the resourcefulness of his game has not been impaired. Bill Johnston, Vincent Richards, Lacoste and Borotra are the big threats, but Tilden has beaten them all in the past. All of the ranking stars and the seeded players survived the routine of the first round Monday. There was only one exciting match on the second round card today. Rene Lacoste was to play Frank Hunter, the hard hitting Olympic star, in the most Important match of the day. Ot her Feat tires Other feature matches today were to he between Tilden and Lucien Williams, Chicago; Johnston against Leon De Turenne, Portland, Brian Norton and Wray Brown, St. Louis. Rene Lacoste, 20-year-old French tennis star and Wimbledon champion, who was called Monday to report for military duty in France, has received an extension of one week and will be able to play through the tournament.
