By Eddie Ash Thorough Scouting Big Aid to Cadets • 9 • Soldiers Keep Close Tab on Opponents
POINT football players, like the United States army, believe that half the battle is in knowing what the other fellow has in the way of guns and strategy. The Army grid officials go to great lengths to scout future opponents, sending agents by plane, train or by any means to gather information. It is said Army agents watch Notre Dame from the very outset of the season despite the fact the annual tilt between the rivals always is played late in the campaign. The date is Nov. 21 this year. According to eastern football observers, it was the West Point intelligence staff that beat Yale last Saturday. It is said the Cadets went into that fray thoroughly posted on the Blue’s entire scheme of attack and usually succeeded in smearing Yale plays before the charge got under way. The Army seemed to know just where the ball was when it was in possession of the Blue. Yale grew panicky when it realized its formations were in the hands of the enemy and the Blue took a sound licking, but even so the New Haven warriors scored two touchdowns, one on a 69-yard march. The score was 20 to 12, Army. a a a a a a YALE was sent back on its heels by its own fumble that gave the Army a break in the first period. Moreover, it was a fumble that followed a run of thirty-six yards. Rankin of Yale received the opening kickoff and was “cutting the grass’’ tearing off yardage when he dropped the ball and the Soldiers snared it. It Is doubtful, however, if Yale could have staved off defeat even if the breaks had not been in the Army's favor. The Soldiers knew too much about the Blue's system of attack, and the Cadets had Mr. John Buckler of Waco, who usually is a Texas Tornado in the Yale bowl. However, one grid scribe who saw the game summed it up this way: “The contest furnished a splendid tribute to the high efficiency and proficiency of the Army scouting department. Yale’s offensive was taken apart just as the watchmaker dissociates the cog-wheels of/ a time-piece. However, it would have been a different sort of game if Rankin hadn't fumbled the opening kickoff.’* a a a a a a THE Perfect Picker Pete “slate” for Saturday Nov. 3 has been completed and you will find it in this column today. It offers candidates of all descriptions, breed, long term in office, short term and some with hardly any term. No individual candidate is recommended. That’s up to the football voter. The choice is your own. It’s a week of many Interesting games and for that reason twenty-six tilts are listed for The Times readers to ballot on scores. Twenty-six games are a whole lot of games, but the football fans have demonstrated in previous weeks that they can pick 'em down the line regardless of number and actually get ’em right in most instances.

DePauiv Seeks 13th Win in Playing Kentucky Team Georgetown Eleven to Furnish Undefeated Tigers Their Only Out-of-State Competition This Season. By Times Special GREENCASTLE, Ind.. Oct. 31.—De Pauw, victor in twelve straight football games by shutout scores, will meet its only out-of-state opponent here Saturday in the Georgetown (Ky.) eleven. '
The two schools have met only three times, last in 1927. Georgetown was the victor by the margin of a field goal, 16-14. on its home field. De Pauw won the other two tilts. Georgetown is reported to have a heavy line. Against a heavy Franklin team last week. De Pauw ran up a score of 24-0 and used its regulars only in the first half.

Don George Emerges on Top by ‘Getting Rough ’ New York Heavy Uses Toe and Fist to Subdue Sarpolis in Main Event at Armory. BY VERX BOXELL Ed Don George. 220-pound New Yorker, who once held a claim on the world's championship, was too tough for Karl *Doc) Sarpolis. local hero of mat followers, in the feature heavyweight tvrestling struggle at the
armory last night. Before a packed house of 3.000 George pinned the former Chicago university athlete in straight falls, the first in forty-four minutes, the second in four. Alter a slow start, the topnotch performers settled down to work and gave the customers some lively action. There was little to choose between them until Sarpolis, attempting to pin the ex-Michigan athlete after a tackle and slam, got his thin in the way of George’s feet and was knocked cold. For the second fall. Sarpolis leaped from his comer and clamped George in a punishing leg scissors—the hold which has brought him many victories. For four minutes l George struggled to free himself, then, twisting to his side, brought two locked fists down onto’the Sarpolis midriff with much gusto and Karl folded up for the evening. Leo Numa, the coast youngster who has disposed of three consecutive foes here, and Andy Rascher. Hoosier pride and also one of the new grappling crop, will battle it out for popularity honors next week. Lloyd Carter. Hercules A. C. promer. announced today. Numa easily conquered George Kogut, Chicago veteran, in last i night's semi-wmdup, scoring with a I series of slams and giant swing. The time was seventeen minutes. Rascher faces a tough test to hold [ his grip on the local customers. It ! will be a two falls out of three struggle. In last night's opener, Dorve I Roche, New Orleans, was forced to j forfeit to Joe Greenberg. Detroit, after seven minutes of action when jhe was injured. The state commisjsion doctor said Roche suffered a ! sprained and ankle when landing after a flying tackle.

PITT-NOTRE DAME CLASH TO DRAW 60,000
I. U Regards Hawkeyes as Menacing Foe Crimson Team Expects lowa to Be at Full Strength Despite Defeats. I Hi/ 7 Illtri special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct. 31. Bo McMillin has had a real headache session since Saturday, when he saw Indiana's next two opponents, Minnesota and lowa, stage a slashing battle at the lowa home-coming, with the Gophers running roughshod over the Hawkeyes, 48-12. So Bo has ordered overtime work for his team this week to get ready for the lowa team, which probably i will have a very mean disposition next Saturday and will be champing to avenge the three defeats already | suffered. lowa will have Captain Russ Fisher back in the line-up. It then will have its full strength, something it hasn’t had since it walloped Northwestern, 20-7. Indiana’s squad literally put on its working harness Monday and Tuesday as Bo ordered the bucking straps out and the bucking machine dragged onto the practice field. Charlie McDaniel, utility tackle, is still on the convalescent list and probably will not be used much Saturday in the hig home-coming fracas. Other injuries which have been handicapping the Hoosiers improved steadily with the help of the open week-end. After watching the lowa team in action, Bo stated: “lowa has a much better football team than the score against lowa State and Minnesota would indicate, but, like several other good teams, has a limited number of replacements, especially in the backfield. If Captain Fisher, the spark plug of the team, is able to play Saturday, as he is exoected to be, lowa will be the same l.ne team that it was against Northwestern.”

Smoky City Scout Declares Irish Are Growing Stronger and May Show More Tricks Eastern Team Said to Have Been at Peak Against Gophers: Clash Will Mark First Meeting of Rivals Without Clean Slates; Interest High. By Times Special PITTSBURGH. Oct. 31.—Pitt vs. Notre Dame at the Pitt stadium at 2 o'clock on Saturday! That is the football fare that will be handed out before 60.000 rabid fans or more in the great gray bowl on a Pittsburgh hillside. Tickets are meeting a ready sale.
For the first time in the modern series between the two schools, neither the Panthers nor the Irish will come into the game undefeated and untied. But this makes little difference to Pittsburgh fans. The Smoky City always has been a strong Notre Dame town, and there will be nearly as many people in the stands pulling for the Irish as there will be for Pitt. Notre Dame is no stranger here, for, while little has been said about it, Pitt was one of the first major schools to lose to Notre Dame in football, a style made fashionable several years afterward by most of the countries’ leading teams. Bill Kern, Pitt scout who has been watching the Irish for the past three weeks, reports that Elmer Layden has revived the old winning spirit at South Bend and has organized two crack elevens. The Panthers had what amounted to a week's layoff before the Notre Dame game, and will be geared to a high state of efficiency for the game, but those who have seen both teams in action report that the Irish are not yet at the height of their power possibilities, that they are on their way up, and that the Panthers, on the other hand, hit their best stride against Minnesota on Oct. 20. In three consecutive wins over Purdue, Carnegie Tech and Wisconsin, Notre Dame has used a galaxy of men in each game. In those three games, coach Layden did not allow his quarter backs to open up, forcing them to use simple plays. He may be ready to pull the string on his bag of tricks by the time he hits Pittsburgh. Irish Guard Against Injury Before Trip By United Press SOUTH BEND, Oct. 31—Coach Elmer Layden will make no changes in his Notre Dame lineup for the Pittsburgh game Saturday. Regular scrimmage was cancelled at yesterday’s practice and the varsity went through a dummy scrimmage against Pitt plays. The Irish coach is taking no chances on any of his players being injured for the tilt. He announced a squad of forty-two men will make the trip, but will postpone selection until after tomorrow’s drill, just before train time.

Tex., Oct. 31.—Students of Southern Methodist university today mourned the passing of Peruna, their football team’s muchtraveled mascot. Peruna was a pony of Shetland extraction, twenty-eight inches in height and hardly more than that in length. Last night he strayed from his quarters at Ownby stadium and ventured on a busy thoroughfare. A speeding automobile struck him. He died shortly afterwards. The mascot died only a few hours after returning from his greatest triumph—the invasion of New York, where Saturday S. M. U. defeated Fordham university, 26 to 14. NAVY PRACTICES PASSES—ANNAPOLIS. Md., Oct. 31. Coach Hamilton is concentrating on polishing Navy’s running and aerial attack for Washington and Lee, hoping to outscore the powerful Generals rather than bear down on a defensive game.
