WELL, anyway. the Carnegie Foundation didn't charge any of the “skollitch” boys with bootlegging. a a a If it took three and one-half yean* to collect that report the Foundation investiga'ors themee’ves were subsidized. They were overpaid. a a a Maybe the probe committee members failed to make the team when they were in college. Some of the little things they squawked about Bound that way. a a a How do they expert a big. sturdy son of a poor emigrant to get a higher “eddieation” if he isn’t taken care of? a a a THE melting pot melts fast on the old campus. When the starwarts lrom the sticks and the huskies from across the pond are taught to lug the leather egg plant for first downs they’re welcome to anybody’s house party. a a a If campus jobs weren't obtained for the low-in-finance athletes they couldn't attend college and would have to go to work. Under the system deplored by the Foundation it s possible for the boys to escape working for a living for four years! Thus the unemployment situation is helped greatly and with no strain oh the soup line. a a a The Foundation experts mournfully stress the fact many football coaches are paid more than the professors. Well, why not? The coaches have to know more. a a a Knute Itockne started out as a chemistry professor at Notre Dame and got promoted. a a a YOU can lead a boy to college,; but you can not make him think, unless he plays football, whereupon he must memorize the signals or take the air. a a a Some of our smartest politicians of today ps well as some of our best comedians first learned the value of mind over matter when their “skollltch” coach taught them how to flatten the biggest guy on the opposing team while the referee wasn't looking. a a a The Foundation lists Centre college as having a slush fund for athletes cons’sting of $609.

Rockne Gives Big Ten Views; Picks Carnegie to Defeat N. D.

Facts Give Tech Edge in Saturday Battle, Veteran Coach Says; Sees Minnesota Ultimate Winner in Conference. BY KNUTE K. ROCKNE Member. All-Ameri ca Football Board (Re*, u. 6. Patent Office) That the Big Ten championship will be rather scrambled before the season is over seems very likely. There seems to be several teams quite evenly matched and with the breaks of the game coming fast and furious no one team seems to stand out in actual performance. One’s first thought in looking over the lllinois-Michigan game will be that Illinois ought to win handily. But then one is reminded of the unexpected victory of Michigan a year ago after Michigan had taken four defeats in a row. However, Illinois should win, everything considered. Those who thought Stagg at Chicago would be Helpless are beginning to waken to the fact “the old man’’ has quite a hefty line and his back field is not nearly as poor as It appears on paper. That Purdue fears Chicago is not without reason. It is doubtful if the Purdue line is any better than Chicago’s, but Purdue, of course, has the big edge when it comes to ball carriers. I look for Purdue to win but only after a hectic struggle.

Missing Fight Promoter Back HOUSTON, * Tex., Oct. 24.—Frankie Edwards, fight promoter who had been missing from New Orleans since the night of the Canzor.eriWolfe fight which he promoted last September, was free on bond here today pending action by New Orleans authorities. Edwards was sought after it was discovered the receipts of the bout, approximately $15,000, were missing. He denied thaf there was any criminal intent in his departure from New Orleans. He said the fight failed to make expenses and he was unable to pay the boxers all they had been promised. RAMBLERS LACK WORK Notre Dame in Only One Hard Drill Before Trip. B.U Timex Six rial SOUTH BEND, Ind., Oct. 25. Ramblers left here Thursday night for Pittsburgh, where they meet Carneigie Tech Saturday. Rain has hindered the Irish in workouts, and their only hard drill of the week was held Thursday. With Vezie, end, and Leahy, tackle, out of the lineup. Coach Rockne intends to use Conley and Colerick at ends; Dcnoghue and Twcmey, tackles; Cannon and Law, guards; Moynihan, center; Carideo, quarter; Elder and Brill, halves, and Mullins or Savoldi, full. PAGE SHIFTS LINEUP Indiana Squad Inspired by Rousing Send-Off for Ohio Trip. riu United Pres* BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct. 25. Inspired by a rousing send-off given by the student body. Pat Page and his Hoosiers left here Thursday night for Columbus. Another shift was noted in the announced probable starting lineup, with indications of attempting to strengthen both the offense and defense. Page said he would start Cattertop and Hansen, ends; Jasper and Unger, tackles; Hojnacki and Ringwalt, guards; Mankowski, center; Brubaker or Balay, quarter; Hughes or Tcdd, full; Faunce and Ross or Koenig, half backs. YUNEVICH ON TRIP B.u Time* Special LAFAYETTE, Ind.. Oct. 25.—Purdue’s hopes for a victory over Chicago Saturday were strengthened when Alex Yunevich. sophomore fuil back, was taken with the Boilermakers when they left here this morning. Although officials still contend the former Bicknell flash will be unable to play, it is thought he may see action for a short time. Thirty-six men made the trip. YALE LINEUP NAMED fill United Pres* NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 25. Yale footballers were to get a light signal drill today. Coach Mai Stevens has announced his probable starting lineup for the Army game: Hickok and Barres, ends; Marting and Vincent, tackles; Loeser and Greene, guards; Palmer, center; Wilson, Snead, Miller and Dunn, back field. ROPER NAMES LINEUP lip United Per** PRINCETON, N. J., Oct. 25. Coach Bill Roper of Princeton has decided upon his starting lineup for the Navy game Saturday, subject, of course, to last minute changes. The probable lineup: Yeckley and Pendergast, ends; Barfield and Whyte, tackles; Moore and Mestres, mards: Caldwell, center; Wittmer, Scarlett, Lowry and Zundel, backs.

I look for Wisconsin to have a .light edge over lowa in their meetng at Madison. The big, powerful, potential Wisconsin team has not hit its stride as yet. There is a lot of power and Lusby is a fine forward passer. Wisconsin’s kicking game last Saturday against Notre Dame was superb. However, lowa thrilled her admirers by holding Illinois even a week ago. I. U. Schedule Tough Ohio State should have a distinct edge over Pat Page’s tired Hoosiers. Indiana has a fair bunch of football material, but they have been tackling too tough a schedule. It looks like Pat will have his hands full keeping the morale up where it should be. Minnesota seems just now to have the best chance of any of the Big Ten schools of coming through the season clean, but you never can tell. Without analyzing the facts the average fan might believe that Notre Dame should have an edge over Carnegie in their game at Pittsburgh, but it must be remembered that Carnegie has exactly the same team that they had a year ago, with the exception of Harpster. Os course, they have felt the loss of Harpster severely. But, even so, Carnegie still is the juggernaut physically that it was a year ago. Personally, I look for Carnegie Tech to win, but not by any such score as last year. Good N. D. Replacements Playing its fourth game of a hard schedule the Notre Dame squad is beginning to weaken, having lost a few men through injuries, but fortunately the replacements are quite good. However, any Pittsburgh enthusiast who believes Carnegie Tech ought to win easily may be in for some disappointment. Carnegie has a fine offense and a clever mixture of deception, power and passing, and under the skillful guidance of Harpster in 1928 it was a beautiful thing to watch. In the hands of interior quarter backs, however, these complex offenses sometimes stop themselves. After being incapacatated for some time, I am sure of being at the Pittsburgh game, though it may be that before the fourth quarter is over I will wish I was back home in bed. Favors Marquette Marquette university goes east to play Holy Cross at Worcester, Whereas Holy Cross, which has a fine team, would seem to have a distinct edge on paper, yet Marquette has better than an even chance of taking the easterners. Butler invades New York to play New York university, and I predict Butler will give the New York team a pretty hefty game, though N. Y. U. is too strong to expect a Hoosier victory. In Cavosie, Butler has one one of the finest ali-round backs in football. (Copyright, 1929. by The Times!

John Waldorf

IN two previous years of varsity football at the University of Missouri, John Waldorf, captain this year, saw duty at end, tackle, guard, center, quarter back and half back. This season he’s performing at full back, so that makes him just about the most versatile Tiger that Coach Gwinn Henry has about. Waldorf is 5 feet 11 and weighs 210.

Classroom Overshadowed by Stadium, Taft Says

Tlx Uni’ r d Prrfi f NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—“Milliondollar athletics” are a serious menace to colleges and universities in the opinion of Chief Justice William Howard Taft, w;ho expresses his views on college athletics in an interview with Frazier Hunt in Cosmopolitan magazine. “There is something radically and fundamentally wrong with our whole college system today,” he said. * “The emphasis in college life is wrong. Scholarship has been pushed aside and dwarfed by a super-importance that has been given to athletics. “Athletics have assumed a tremendous business importance. There is a definite professional side to all this that is not in keeping with educational Ideals and purposes. The stadium overshadows the classroom—athletics have a dollar sign in front of them.” CHARLES HOFF FINED Famous Norwegian Pole Vaulter Must Pay S2BO. Bii United, Press OSLO, Norway, Oct. 25.—Charles Hoff, famous Norwegian pole vaulter, was fined 1,000 kroner (about $260) today on charges of defamation of the character of Leif Rode, president of the Norwegian National Athletic Union.

Before last Saturday, they figured Illinois better than even money to win the Big Ten title. Now they offer two to one the Illini do not win. Minnesota has been installed as Big Ten favorite at 7 to 5. Notre Dame, many figure, can not be beaten, despite their stiff scheule. However, the bookies are betting $3 to $1 the Irish lose at least one game.

Reception Is Given Butler Colors and Pictures Displayed Along Broadway. B.u Timis Special NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—Butler university football team of Indianapolis arrived here at noon today for the game with New York Saturday. Butler alumni were at the station to greet the western team and the squad was hustled to the Commodore liotel for luncheon. The hotel, headquarters for the visitors, is decorated with Butler colors.

in varying degrees, against approximately 100 representative institutions of learning, is bound to be beneficial to American college sport. Some schools attacked in the Foundation’s bulletin frankly admitted furnishing assistance to athletes through scholarships and other means; others indignantly denied all knowledge of such practices. A majority of the college authorities promised assistance in putting an end to what the Foundation’s committee, headed by Dr. Howard J. Savage, termed the “darkest blot upon American college athletics.” Many college authorities still were withholding definite replies to the Foundation's charges today, pend-* ing receipt of “Bulletin No. 23. • Most of the score of schools whitewashed by the Carnegie committed, were discreetly silent. A typical response from the football coaches w r ho were attacked in the bulletin came from Major Frank Cavanaugh, outspoken head coach at Fordham university. “Why get excited?” demanded Major Cavanaugh. “The report only tells w'hat every one already knew. Fifteen of my boys are receiving scholarships. None is being paid money.” Schools such as Columbia, Wisconsin and Southern California, denounced by the Foundation bulletin, voiced through spokesmen, complete disavowal of commercialism. No one anticipates any immediate housecleaning as a Result of the Foundation’s expose. But a number of college authorities, hlumni and student bodies have started thinking.
