Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Dec. I.—Well, that Army-Notre Dame game is all over and I don’t know whaj. it wa.s all about yet. Considering' that I am probably the world’s worst football expert this should not be surprising. a a a I mean to u; that even when the htikr vounr gladiators are out there on. a dry field performing their boeus pocos in bright sunshine. I am not always exactly clear as to what they are doing or trying to do. But when they out me In a press box a mile high and as far removed from the game as F. Seott Mcßride’s philosophy Is from Dwight Morrow’s I am in a bad WM, an n And when It happens, as was the case on Saturday, that the game is played in a steady drizzle in rich brown mud and after the first two or three scrimmages all the players look like Amos n Andy. X am totally lost. a a Somebody told me a traveling salesman by the name of Marchmont Schwartz scored the Notre Dame touchdown that eaibe three or four minutes before the closing gun to break a scoreless deadlock. I hope he wasn’t kidding me. All that 1 actually know about, the episode is that someone stTlisbly clad in a fresh coat of muck tucked something resembling a large dripping divot under bis right elbow and went sloshing down the field a great distance with twenty-one other mud bathers swimming in his turbulent wake. ana •Who was that?” T inaulred of Ed Doolev the reformed Dartmouth bacic field star who sat back of me tn , 1 heohs crv ation tower that shot high into the grow*■ ing skyline facing Lake Michigan. That was Schwartz." replied Dooley He f 1 * wavs gets oft one long run. Apparently the system Is to identify the Notre Dame touchdown maker by habit. a a a IT was unfortunate that the Army boasted no particular ball carrier addicted to similar traits, because when the Soldiers blocked a kick and scored a touchdown a minute later credit for the performance was given to everybody from the Four Marx brothers to Black Jack Pershing. a a a An Army captain .connected with the ♦ cam who sat in the press box announced that Miller had blocked the kick and Armstrong had slid across the goal line on his vishbone to score the touchdown. Accordingly this information went sineing its way over the wires to the rest of the country. a a a Some time later a courier came panting up to tbe p-es box from the Army dressing room to announce that King, a substitute end. bad not only blocked, the kick but had straddled it in mid air and stayed in tbe saddle until the leather had flown safely across the scoring rone. Amid such gnashing of teeth the experts and the nonexperts rewrote their pieces to conform to the latest bulletins. a a a Ultimately. It developed that this was only half the truth, and while King blocked the kick a young soldier by the na tie of Trice escorted it through the mire to the nay off station. But by the time this information had reached the press box the occupants had surrendered wholeheartedly to a spirit of cock-eyed hilarity and the touchdown was being chalked up to the credit of Frankie and Johnny, the Yellow Taxi Company and the man on the flying trapeze. a a a AS a football game, those who . were able to see it say it wasn’t much, and in view of the conditions it didn’t figure to be. The best team won. though the set-up" was such that the result might easily have been different if the breaks had gone the other way a couple of times. The figures show Notre Dame outrushed the Cadets 188 to 63 yards and this manifestly bespeaks a much more effective offensive in spite of the existing discouragements. a a a Carideo was kicking when King (or Miller. Armstrong. Tirce or Major Fleming) broke through and blocked the attempt. They say it is tbe first time a kick of Carideo’s has ever been blocked. a a a THIS isn’t greatly important. The ball was cleanly blocked, and bounded backward lo roll Jerkily across the line furiously pursued by some unidentified stranger thought by the police to be either Legs Diamond or Judge Crater disguised as a mud massage 3 BOUTS ON MAT BILL Three bouts are on the mat program for Tomlinson hall tonight.

Big Coast Eleven Is Favorite in Classic Suicide Schedule and 2,000-Mile Trip Figured Too Much for Notre Dame: Victory Will Give Hoosiers National and All-Time Honors. BY DIXON STEW ART United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. I.—With a string of eighteen consecutive victories during the last two years still unbroken, Notre Dame’s football squad today moved westward to seek a final triumph—one which, if attained, will stamp Coach Knute Rockne’s 1930 aggregation as the nation’s greatest all-time gridiron machine. The game with Southern Colifornia at Los Angeles Saturday, is the climax to the most difficult schedule ever attempted by a college football team and a victory will give Notre Dame a second successive national championship.

Notre Dame already has defeated Northwestern and Army, respective midwestern and eastern leaders, and a victory over Southern California, rated as one of the two best Pacific coast teams, would eliminate any remaining doubt regarding the school’s right to national recognition, Rockne Not Kidding The Irish, worn and weary after their strenuous schedule of nine games, without a “breather,” and a 2,000-mile railroad journey, will enter the game as the underdog in the betting—the first time such a condition has prevailed in more than two years. “I’m not kidding you or attempting to use psychology on the players when I say I do not expect to win,” Rockne told the United Press today. “Notre Dame will be on the downgrade after those two tough battles with Northwestern and Army, and while the boys may rally enough to give the Trojans a fairly good game I see no chance of victory.” “Perfect Play’’ Scores Southerx. California, coached by Howard Jones, will be in much better condition for the game than Notre Dame. The Trojans have had few hard games this season and since their early season 7 to 6 upset by Washington State, have won their contests by overwhelming scores. Saturday’s 7 to 6 victory over the Army, although gained by tile uncomfortably close margin of a kick after touchdown, removed any doubt l-egarding the team’s championship calibre. The Irish outgained the heavier Cadets almost ten yards to one and after the mud, ice, rain, fog and sleet nullified many scoring opportunities made their touchown on the one “perfect play” for which Notre Dame teams strive.

His Toe May End Jinx
4> '
ouiiii Dime r THREE of the four times Notre Dame and theTlniversity of Southern California have tangled on the gridiron, the Hoosiers have emerged with one-point victories. In 1926, It was 13 to 12 and in 1927, 7 to 6. In 1928, the Trojans walked off with the honors, 27 to 14, but the South Benders came back last season with a 13 to 12 win. Coach Howard Jones has decided to put an end to this one-point jinx, and the boy upon whom the burden will fall next Saturday is John Baker, husky guard and drop-kicker deluxe, who is slated for all-America honors. Baker has been hanging up the points after touchdowns with regularity this season.
Hildebrand Deal Boost for Tribe; Other Talent Sought
Following the sale of pitcher Oral Hildebrand to Cleveland for three players and a sum of cash, Tribe officials were on the way to today to attend the big minor league meeting and endeavor to land more talent for the 1931 Indians.

Bonura Pounds Ball The Hildebrand deal with Cleveland stacks up promising for the Hoosiers, the players coming in exchange being shortstop Eddie Montague, first baseman Zeke Bounra and pitcher Leslie Barnhart. Montague was with both Cleveland anjl New Orleans last season, while Bonura and Barnhrat performed with New Orleans.

Young Stars Set Batting Pace in American League
By United Press CHICAGO, Dec. I.—Young stars set the pace for hitters in the American League in 1930 and official averages released today showed qjily four players who have been in the league ten years or more were among the thirty leading batsmen.

Simmons also led the league in runs scored, was third in hits, second in total bases and fifth in home runs. Lou Gehrig of the Yankees was runner-up for batting honors with a .379 mark, and Babe Ruth and Carl Reynolds, White Sox rookie, tied for third place among the regulars at .359.

Leagues in Draft Row Nation’s Baseball Leaders Gather in Montreal for Session. By Times Special MONTREAL. Canada, Dec. I. This city was baseball headquarters of America today as cjub owners, managers, secretaries, scouts and league officials arrived to attend the annual winter powwow of the minor leagues. Many big league representatives also were on hand and it is predicted the current session will be a lively one. The minors and majors are in their usual player draft controversy, only this time the matter is a serious proposition. The majors want all minor circuits to accept the universal draft, while the three big minor loops object. The class AA leagues have been operating under the modified draft for several years and oppose the universal draft unless the majors make some sacrifices. International and Pacific coast leagues planned a meeting today and every day throughout the week there will be meetings of different leagues as w T ell as the regular session of all minor circuits. The majors are to meet next week in New York, but have men here watching the little fellows. If anew agreement is not made, there will be no more trading between the majors and the minor circuits that refuse to submit to the arrangements desired by the American and National Leagues,

Boilermakers Allan don Ten Minor Sports s By United, Press LAFAYETTE, Ind., Dee. I.—Football, as a money-making proposition, failed to provide sufficient funds this fall for other activities, and resulted in abandonment of intercollegiate minor sport competition at Purdue university this year. The college officials said today the abandonment may continue through next year. Intercollegiate minor sports entirely are dependent upon football receipts, N. A. Kellogg, director of athletics, said, and this year’s revenue was insufficient to carry on the minor sports. Sports affected by the decision were baseball, track, cross-country, swimming, water polo, gymnastics, wrestling, tennis, golf, and fencing.
