But if any one from Pennsylvania should chance to give you an argument on this demanding specific proof that Notre Dame is superior to Pittsburgh, the easiest and most convenient attitude to take is one of icy aloofness backed up with a withering, "is that so?” a a a ITT is never advisable to get very I deep into these controversies mI solving relative greatness parI ticularly when the teams in question I are not scheduled to meet each I other, because the consequences | seldom lead to anything more | judicial or convincing than com--1 munity riots, free-for-all fights and : over taxed hospital wards. a a a Prrhap* thr br**l thing tft rtn in Mirh ; eirrumvtanres is l adopt a calm, dia- | in|pre*t*d. academic noMtion and erneri ntiftlv admit that all the unbeaten elevens ( are very and that it i* quite allly tn t a"emnt *n ffv them on a baai* of comparative power. a tt a This is not at all difficult to do if you happen to be an alumnus of ! dear old Wilberforce, Millsaps. Upsala or even Princeton. Tliere is something about a long string of defeats that cools the passions and enables the habitually militant enthusiast to view the general football picture with a fine, even balanced judgment. tt tt tt IN this connection it should be noted that there is never any criticism from any source about over emphasis when the football team has a mediocre season. It is only when the varsity has a fast set of backs and a hard Charging line and victories are piled up one on top of the other that the familiar alarm is sounded. B tt B From this thr obvious ronclu<.ion is that football's Utopia—as viewed bv the faculty and surh outside areneies as the Carnegie Foundation —will be populated be teams that never win. teams (hat never approach perfection, and trams thtt never vain the eight column banners in the late Saturdav editions. tt tt tt And In such a place of course, it will always be possible to get tickets to the big game on the 50-vard line and in any quantity. Mike Jacobs, however, will have no Interest in it. Jacobs is a ticket speculator of international repute. When there are no tickets to be had anywhere else Jacobs will have them. It is common knowledge that a coupe of generals had to go to him to buy tickets for the ArmyNotre Daine game here last season and a rumor Is current that President Angell of Yale Is negotiating with Jacobs for an extra pair for Saturday's game with Harvard at Cambridge. - s INCIDENTALLY this is an interesting phase of the modern college system which the Carnegie fellows failed to investigate. Jacobs was never mentioned on any of Walter Camp's all-American teams. He can’t tell a full back from a full sophomore. His entire experience in an institution of higher learning was confined to an interrupted semester in a local barber college, from which he was flunked for splitting hairs with a captious customer. Yet Jaeobs always has plenty of tickets for the football games. V a a All right fellows, altogether now. nine rah* and a locomotive for Rood old Mike. Or would you rather have a Rolls Rovce, Mike?

Italian Wins on Foul, But Lacks Polish Stribling Holds Decided Edge Until Disqualified for Hitting Low. By I nit at P< * LONDON. Nov. 19.—Primo Cm nera's rating among the heavy weights remained uncertain toda;. as a result of the giant Italian , showing in his fight with Young Stribling. American heavyweight, before the Prince of Wales and 10,000 enthusiastic fans at Albert Hall. Monday night. Camera won a foul in the fourth round, when Stribling was disqualified for hjtting low. Until the foul Stribling held a decided advantage over the big Italian and looked like a certain winner. Outweighed 283 pounds to 189'., Stribling danced rings around Camera. He jabbed the Italian repeatedly'with stiff lefts and ripped hard rights to the body, although he had difficulty reaching Camera's face because of the Italian’s eightinch advantage in height. After being floored by a rlgtif- to the body and left to the heart, early in the third round. Camera rushed at Stribling and landed his first hard.punch of the bout. It whs a sweeping right to the face and landed high up on the cheek bone but had force enough to send Stribling to the canvas for a count of nine. The fourth round lasted only forty seconds. Hitting back hard, from a leaning ijosition on the ropes, Stribling sent a swift right and left to Camera's body. The Italian fell over, apparently in agony. The referee awarded the bout to Camera •Boxing critics agreed today that “the bout showed Camera is not a good boxer and lacks speed.
