Nation Watches Skibo Efforts to Make It Three in Row Over N. D.
Decisive Victories Scored by Carnegie in Last Two Grid Clashes. BATTLE AT PITTSBURGH Both Teams Undefeated in Early ’29 Games. BY FRANK GETTY United Sport* Editor NEW YORK, Oct. 23.—The Skibos of Carnegie Tech are the only football aggregation in the country able to point to a record of successive victories over Notre Dame during the last few season. Moreover, the Skibos are going out Saturday afternoon in Pittsburgh to try to run their string up to three straight. Now three straight over a Knute Rockne eleven is something just about unheard cf in recent years but the fact remains that Carnegie Tech has the only team with a chance to bring it off this season, and funnier things have happened. No one who was watching ever will forget the look on Knute's face when he heard the news about the 1926 game. “Rock” had gone to Chicago to see the Army-Navy game, sending his Irish over to Pittsburgh in charge of an assistant. It was in the press box at Soldier field that Knute heard the news Carnegie Tech had risen unexpectedly and slaughtered the Irish by an overwhelming score. Shortly after that arose the rumor that Rockne, on the side lines, was the most valuable player on the Notre Dame team. The Skibos and the Irish did not meet the following year, 1927. In 1928, however, it was 27 to 7 In favor of Carnegie Tech. Captain Harpster. all-America quarter back, led the Skibos. Rochne didn’t take that beating quite so much to heart. It lacked the element of painful surprise which accompanied the upset in 1926. This year, on the current season’s record of the two elevens, it looks doubtful that Carnegie Tech can repeat. Notre Dame has an eleven which combines the customary Rockne efficiency with dash and drive. Nor does it need its coach right at hand, for Rochne has been laid up in bed for a fortnight. Notre Dame opened the season by beating Indiana, 14 to 0. The next week the Irish knocked off the Navy, 14 to 7, and followed this up by displaying a fast back field and flowing attack to crush Wisconsin, 19 to 0. Carnegie Tech defeated Bethany, 21 to 0: Thiel, 26 to 0; Western Reserve, 33 to 6, and then was held to a scoreless tie by Washington and Jefferson last Saturday.

LOCAL LADY, 80, ILL TWO YEARS; KONJOLA SCORED Tells How Dreadful Case Os Rheumatism Readily Yielded to Famous Medicine. H&kj ' ■ ism MRS. CARRIE L. BUTLER —Photo bv National Studio Illinois Bldg. Here is abundant cheer and hope for all who suffer from rheumatism and who may fear that there is no relief for them from the pangs of this dreaded disease. Konjola, the new and different medicine, is daily winning victory after victory over this affliction. At the same time Konjola Is supreme in the obstinate cases of stomach, liver, kidney and bowel troubles and of neuritis and nervousness. Learn how Konjola’s 32 ingredients, 22 of them the juices of roots and herbs, go to the very fount and source of the ailment, strengthening, cleansing and invigorating. Learn how Konjola works with Nature in paving the way for the return of new, glorious and lasting health. Daily the Konjola Man, who is at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, receives indorsement after indorsement from local men and women who found their first and only relief through the use of this super-remedy. And life teaches us no better lesson than that it is wise to profit from the experiences of others. Why not follow In the footsteps of those who, to their everlasting joy, found health and happines through Konjola. Take, for instance, the case of Mrs. Carrie L. Butler, 80, 1536 Linden street, Indianapolis, who said to the* Konjola Man a few days ago: “I thought that my age was against me, but Konjola soon proved that it was as powerful in the cases of the aged as in those of younger people. No words can deseribe my gratitude for what Konjola has done for me. Two years ago a severe case of rheumatism attacked me and grew worse with the passing of each week. Both my hands were affected. The joints were so sore and stiff that I could not use them. Great knots formed on my hands. Finally it became impossible to use my arms. I could not raise them from my side. The pains were driving me mad. And to make matters worse, kidney and stomach trouble developed, adamg greatly to my pitiful condition. What was I to do? “Medicines and treatments were of no avail and I tried many of them. I was discouraged and without faith in anything. When Konjola was recommended I scoffed at the, idea of it benefiting me. Yet I knew something had to be done. So I decided to take one more chance and give Konjola a trial. But I soon discovered that I was taking no chance; that I had made the wisest decision of my life. Daily I grew better I completed the treatment and felt like a different person. Konjola ended the stomach and kidney troubles and swept away the rheumatism. Today I do all my own housework, make my grandchildren’s clothing and use my hands and arms at will. It has been almost a miracle—Konjola was a Godsend—l praise it with all my heart and soul.” This is just another proof—lf added proof were necessary—of the amazing merits of Konjola. And what it has done for others it will do for you—for everyone. The konjola Man is at the Hook Dependable Drugstore. Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is meeting the public daily, introducing and exDlainlng the merits of this new and different medicine. Konjola is sold also at all Hook stores in this city and vicinity.—Advertisement
