Whiskers Among Savoldi’s Weaknesses Is His Inability to Shave Himself.

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY Called PreM Staff Correapondent C'tHICAGO, Oct. 24—There are / two things Jumping Joe Savoldi, Notre Dame's black-beard, can't do, and one of them may prevent him from winning recognition as an all-America football player. a a a Jar. who ran pack lid pound* and a football a* good, or better, than any man in tb midneat, ran t abate without ratlins himself. so be juat lets hia whiskers STOW.

He juggled the ball around until he was surrounded by a group of Texans. He was bottled up in one corner of the field one minute, the next he was streaking way down the other side of the gridiron, and he didn't stop until he had covered ninety-seven yards lor Notre Dame’s second touchdown. a a a He played less than ten minutes against Navy, tarried the ball only eleven times, but gained 133 yards and scored three of his team's touchdowns in a 26-to-I trlumph over the Middies. a a a Carregie Tech came to South Bend last v.-eek with a defense built for Savoldi. but Joe didn't get to carry the ball much.

Two Plans to Remedy Prep Sports Problems Offered

BY DICK MILLER Efforts to restore calm in the turbulent Indiana high school athletic association were seen in every section of the state last wqck, following reports that representatives of several large schools in the state had organized and issued an ultimatum to the association demanding equal representation on the board of control and legislative body. A threat to withdraw from the I. H. S. A. A. annual cage tourney was rumored. It was learned today that Milo H. Stuart, principal of Technical and recently elected president of the Indiana State Teachers’ Association, is working on two proposals, and will take an active hand in an effort to bring about a solution of the troubles. It is understood that Stuart’s two proposals will be to classify the schools of the state into five divisions, according to their enrollment, giving each class a representative on the board of control and membet's on the legislative committee or classify the schools A. B,and C, according to enrollment. In the latter plan each class would have a state championship tournament. Queried about the two proposals, several school men seemed to favor the five-class plan, stating that many small schools choose to play the larger ones in basketball because each team has only five boys. - Although there are abundant problems^facing the I. H. S. A. A. at this tiiffe, i*. was the opinion of A. L. Trestcr, commissioner of high school athletics, that the equality of representation would solve them all. “If the men from every class of the association can’t settle the prob-

LEADING ELEVENS BATTLE TOPNOTCH OPPONENTS

Irish-Pitt, Army-Yale Games Top Grid Bill Promising Games on Tap in South, Southwest, Midwest and on Coast; Dartmouth Vs. Harvard, Stanford Vs. U. S. C., Indiana at S. M. U. Other Features. BY L. S. CAMERON Cnlted Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 24. —Football teams of the nation will settle down to a steady grind in games of Saturday. With scarcely an exception the leading elevens will play contests with teams of their own size and strength. An important exception is made in the case of Carnegie Tech, which meets Western Reserve at Cleveland. Carngie, already virtually out of the running for the "national football championship” because of a loss to Notre Dame last Saturday, should be able to trounce Reserve. Another exception occurs in Evansville, HI., where Northwestern’s unbeaten Big Ten team will play Centre. ~

Chuck Klein Arrives Home Chuck Klein, slugging Pliilly outfielder, arrived at his Indianapolis ■home today fresh from Cuba, where he has been playing a series of games as a member of Dan Bancroft’s all-star big league team. Klein said he enjoyed the trip to the tropical isle and is looking in the best of condition. Chuck is a bowling enthusiast and will start at once knocking down the maples on local alleys. Mississippi Is Chicago’s Foe Bu United Frets CHICAGO, Oct. 24.—-Chicago’s last chance for a real football victory this season may come Saturday, when the Maroons meet Mississippi at Stagg field. Chicago won a double-header on the opening day of the season, but has been overwhelmed by Wisconsin and Florida in its last two games. Princeton, Purdue, Michigan and Illinois are the other opponents on Chicago’s schedule. The southern team was scheduled to arrive today. TRAIN FOR MONDAY SCRAPS Jimmy Carr, who will appear in the main go at Beal’s indoor arena Monday night, is training daily at the Pioneer A- C. Kid Mohawk also is woring out. There will be six bouts and a battle royal Monday, actioh starting at 8:30. Beal’s arena Is in the 1400 block, South Sheppard street.

lems then nothing can hold the I. H. S. A. A. together,” Trester added. News that a break loomed inevitable spread fast and seemed to stimulate school men everywhere to missionary work. Each seemed agreed that all classes would be forced to concede a point here and there, but that as a whole, the I. H. S. A. A. is too big and too fine an organization to be broken up. The big school men will ask for a meeting of the legislative body within thirty days. The large schools, most of whom entertain sectional and regional tournaments in tl' _ • gyms, 'will refuse to invite such meets under the present doubtful condition of affairs. Hicks Scores Golf Triumph Bu Timrn Special DEL MONTE, Cal., Oct. 24. Helen Hickv, eastern feminine golf star, scored a 19 Thursday to win low gross and low net honors in the Del Mon 1,2 invitational meet. Her score Wednesday was 82, giving her 161 for the thirty-six holes. Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd and Miss Virginia Wie tied at 164. DORVAL FLOORS HANSEN Bit 'l imes Special BOSTON. Oct. 24.—Jack Dorval, Pennsylvania heavyweight, made another impressive showing here Thursday night when he knocked out Knute Hansen in two rounds. The New Yorker was floored three times.

Notre Dame, as uaoai, finds itself in the spotlight, but there is sufficient glare for a few others. Pittsburgh will entertain Notre Dame at Pitt stadium. This game seems to be ITtoss-up, and may be an even money proposition, but there is a footbai! axiom which says, "when in doubt pick Knute Rockne.” Flanking this game is the YaleArmy meeting at New Haven, this seems to be an even thing, with no real trend of favor towards either contestant. Yale adherents and many football experts believe that Albie Booth, small Yale back, will win for Eli. Dartmouth Strong Harvard’s defeat at the hands of Army has taken some of the glamor off the game with Dartmouth. A record of 225 points scored to none for its opponents has placed Dartmouth in the favored position in this game, but the running of the brilliant Sam Batchelder, and the line-plunging ability of ‘Johnnie Schereschewsky may overcome Stan Yudickey, Gay Bromberg, and the other Big Green backs. Residents of Hew York are greatly interested in the New York Fordham game at Yankee stadium. These teams are unbeaten. Each has a strong line and some adept backs. Elsewhere in the east there’s not so much. For traditional or i ther reasons the remaining consequential eastern games of the day include Princeton-Navy, Penn-Lehigh and Lafayette-W. & J. The far coast has several attractive meetings, but none to compare with the Stanford-U. S. C. game at Palo Alto. Washington vs. California ranks as a second coast game of prominence. Southern Card The midwest has two grand games —Michigan-Illinois and PurdueWisconsin. Michigan is undefeated. So is Wisconsin. Actually the best football of the day may be played in the south. Northern gridiron followers by now have come to realize that real ball is played below the Mason-Dixon line. Features include GeorgiaAuburn, Georgia Tech-Tulane, Ten-nessee-North Carolina, and Ala-bama-Vanderbilt. The southwest has the makings of a great intersectional. Southern Methodist will dedicate anew stadium in entertaining Indiana. There’s only one factor militating against S. M. U. in this game and that’s the stadium dedicatory jinx.

Cruising in Sportland WITH EDDIE ASH

THk twelve-man football idea advocated by Head Coach Joe Meyer of St. Xavier university, Cincinnati, will be demonstrated to the public ir. an amateur game in the Queen City, Sunday afternoon, when the Friars Club, and De Molay teams, both of Cincy, take to the gridiron. There is much local Cincinnati interest in the game and a number of Buckeye state coaches will attend. The twelve-player plan, if ever used by colleges, would be tough on sports writers but on the other hand wotild be the answer to another prayer for the telegraph companies on toll service. n u a a b a Owner Weil of the Cincy Reds cut off three men from the Cincy office force this week, men who have been in the employment of the club for j ears. One was employed twenty-eight years, another twenty years. Tic old depression in business wields a cruel whip when it strikes, , B B a BUB THE matter of the annual payment of SIO,OOO to Garry Herrmann. formei Red president, again comes up for discussion. Feeble and unable to work and practically confined to the home of a son-in-law most of the time, the once gay spender and popular Garry, has been donated ten grand each year by the ball club since leaving the post as leader. A suggestion to Judge Landis that his office assume the yearly payment to Herrmann met with the explanation that It was beyond the authority of the commissioner, and the National League will receive the next appeal.

KING LEVINS KY, new fistic idol of Chicago, is a real clown, aloijg with the pugilistic efforts, and seems destined to keep the ring fans wild over him. The other day he said: ‘•When I was in the amateurs I ate hot dogs; but, boy, now I eat big, thick, juicy steaks.” The King believes in stimulating business. In one of his fights Levinsky was flattened for about the tenth time and his seconds threw a towel into the ring, granting defeatr but the King picked it up. mopped his brow and tossed it back out. He said he thought an admirer pitched in the towel for him to use to soak up the blood. * a m Clarence Kaplan, sturdy sub man with Notre Dame, has a grievance. It sgems he is in danger of being charged with one year's service with a college that doesn’t exist any more, thereby robbing him of another year with the Irish. Kaplan played one fall at Columbus college, Sioux Falls, which has ceased functioning, and the question of his 1931 eligibility has been placed before the Big Ten. Notre Dame adheres to conference rules. The question WAS Columbus a college confronts Commissioner Griffith. t: a EVERYTHING is not serene on the campus. Five freshman gridders' at George Washington university. Washington, were suspended from athletics when they organized a miniature strike and demanded salaries, free tuition and board. Evidently the boys really were hungry. It was an opposite case at Oglethorpe university, Atlanta. where too much thirst got the star varsity guard in bad. He was charged with making wine in the college dormitory. a b Perhaps the Oglethorpe guard wis studying business administration and was endeavoring to eliminate the bootlegger's profit. u m a THE W isconsin-Pur due homecoming grid batile at Lafayette Saturday will be ms the air over WFBM, Indianapolis Power and
