Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—1 suppose this Is as good a day as any to tear Into these letters from the customers and get them out of the way—the letters, not the customers, of course. a a a PomUM* due to mt southern hrtnrlnr op. nblrh pi*;** no grest stress on enterprise. I employ the delayed wing bark 7-2-2 formation In taking fare of my correspondence. with the result that at about this time of the. year I come across a lot of stnff touching upon the erratic work of the Yankee pitching staff that should hare been used last June. a a a Os course, what I ought to have Is a secretary. Tractlcally everybody has a secretary these days. Indeed statistics for the. Pseal year show there are almost as many vice-presidents in modern business as there are sfretarles. a a a From time to time I have suggested the need of such assistance to the editor, pointing out that after aJI I am just a great big over-grown boy with a loose, immature conception of executive detail, and tba* if I bad someone to give me a hand I would be able to do much better work, even if 1 bad to stav in tbc office until far in the night. a a a Hu* Invariably there suggestions have provoked remartis of an impertinent character and there have been moments when it, was all 1 could do to hold myself in check count ten. and consider the source. a a a DUE to the influence on the screen of cheap literature, a fantasy seems to have grown up in business that, secretaries are dangerous—particularly blonde secretaries—and when a man, grown weary of drudgery, petitions assistance he is looked upon with mixed feelings of an. semer ; and suspicion. 808 I suppose this is why so many captains industry make it a point to emoloy only male secretaries. Or it mav be that they do not, have a great deal of faith in thero- • *lves and are. forever burdened with a Freudian fear that, along about 4 o'clock in the afternoon while in the middle of a piquant communication to Blotz, Blotr and Rlotr. thev will suddenly decide to call it a day. turn to Miss Elliott and say. ‘'how about going over to Tony's for a little rorktatl?” ana Naturally, T can see where such practices would be inimical to the best interests of anv organization and besides there is alwavs the possibility that Miss Elliott would turn out to be one of those giddy creatures who would start out with an old fashioned high ball and switch to a side car or a silver fizz and in practtcallv po time you would ha-e hpr hanging on vour shoulder calling you popsy Pop. a a a Also there Is the danger that the lady will not esteem you very highly even as an office suncrlor and in accenting the invilation she mav be merely doing so as selfish gesture calculated to tnerease the dimensions of her pay check a a a Admittedly, efficiency ought . to be. the chief consideration. If I get a letter in June from a Brooklyn reader about what a lousy manager Wilbert Robinson is nr to be precise, my Brooklyn reader. it is perfectly absurd to allow it to go unanswered until November, yet it. must be said to my credit that when this happens, as frequently it does, I am inconsolable, and no fit company for man or beast. I go around for days in a heavy melancholy lamenting my slothfulness and wondering what is going to become of me, and why I was ever put on this earth to breathe the same air as the Bruce Bartons, the Baron Colliers and the Grover Whalens. a a a Correspondents who write Imnlortng my opinions in such weighty matters as the efficacy of the lateral pass as compared with the flying wedge of my time tn the kft’s at dear old Backwash do not adopt a lust attitude when on failing to receive a prompt reply they grimly resolve never to "write o that bird Williams again.’’ a a a Ah. if thev only knew how much more noignantlv 1 suffer than they! It Isn’t that. T don’t want to help, or do the right thing. The trouble is the editor should civr me a blonde—l mean, a secretary, a a a That's why even today, when I planned to tear Into those letters and get them all • leaned tip. 1 am still as far away from ihe job as I was last June.

CATHEDRAL AND SHORTRIDGE HOLD FINAL DRILLS
Army Underrated by Notre Dame Backers Cadets Have Same Line Which Held 1929 Irish Eleven, Assisted by Speedy Ball Carriers; Record Crowd to See Battle. BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Nov. 26.—Coach Knute Rocknes unbeaten and untied Notre Dame football squad will resume its campaign for a second successive national gridiron championship at Soldier field Saturday against the Army—an opponent much more dangerous than is indicated by the prevailing betting odds of 5 to 1 on the Irish. With Army universally underrated by western fans, the expected attendance of 125,000—an all-time record—is a tribute to Notre Dame’s great drawing powers. A great majority of the fortunate ticket holders anticipate a Notre Dame walkaway, with Rockne using his second and third string men during a great part of the game, and may face a surprise if Army plays the football it is capable of producing.
Harvard Grid Coach Quits for Business By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 26.—“ My tenweek vacations to coach Harvard football teams are over. I won’t go back next year,” Arnold Horween, Harvard’s head football coach, said today. ‘‘When I first went down there it was understood that it was for only a year or two, but somehow I’ve gone back every season. I can’t play hookey from business any longer.” Horween, who had a successful career as player and coach of Harvard teams, has done his coaching during vacations from his father’s leather tannery. During his five seasons as coach, Harvard won twenty games, lost seventeen and tied three.

It was the second time Mortenson has gone the route with the walloper, who stopped Chuck Wiggins and others. Schwake outweighed his opponent twenty-seven pounds, coming in the ring at 217.

The Army team, playing its first season under the direction of Major Ralph Sasse, has established the best record of any Cade; squad of recent years and is rated by experts as the strongest team in the east. The Cadets have scored eight victories in nine starts, v ith a tie against Yale as the only mar to their record, and have outscored their opponents, 256 points to 15. Forward Are Veterans Basse has a veteran line—the same forward wall which threw back Notre Dame’s every offensive effort in the 1929 game between the two teams, which was won, 7 to 0 by Jack Elder’s pass interception and ninety-six-yard run for an Irish touchdown. His backfield if new and lacks men of the ability of “Red” Cagle and “Hertz.” Murrell, but is fast and clever. The Cadets’ schedule does not compare with Notre Dame’s strenuous chart. Yale, Harvard and Illinois being the only strong opponents, but was arranged to bring Army to its peak for the Notre Dame game. Since their game with Illinois, Nov. 8, the Cadets have been working solely for the Notre Dame game. “Breathers” with Kentucky Wesleyan and Ursinus kept the squad from growing stale because of lack of work, but provided no real competition. Sasse can “key” his team for this game and then will have another two weeks of rest before Army meets Navy in its season finale, Dec. 13. Irish Squad Rests Notre Dame engaged in its hardest battle of the season last Saturday against Northwestern and can not afford to put particular stress on the Army game because of an even more dangerous clash with Southern California at Los Angeles, Dec. 6. Although the players suffered no severe Injuries in the Northwestern game they were battered and bruised and practice requirements ttys week have been the lightest of the year.

Cruising in Sportland
ACCORDING to the word passed around the local stove league, Eugene (Bubbles) Hargrave will be the new manager of the Boston Red Sox. The boys are guessing because they feel confident President Bob Quinn has appointed a pilot and is delaying announcement until the American League winter meeting. Muddy Ruel has been mentioned for the berth frequently, but It seems Washington and Boston couldn’t get together on a deal. Hargrave managed St. Paul in 1929 and turned in a neat job, the Yankees taking him up for relief catcher. Bubbles was given his outright release following the 1930 campaign, and many prominents said at the time he deserved to land a good job because of the bad break in losing out at St. Paul, where he resides. a a a a a Ki Ki Cuyler is rated the speed merchant of the National League, but the Cub outfielder learned it doesn’t pay to become too swift in a car on Michigan highways.
