Butler looked like an easy winner over Indiana State almost from the moment the battle was joined. In the first quarter the Bulldogs advanced the pig pelt in two drives from the Sycamores’ 45 and from their own 15 and each time Tom Harding streaked over for -- Butler scores. ‘He also made both place-

ments, Ralph wager flipped passes to Henry Abts and Pete Lockhart for the two Butler touchdowns in the second quarter, On .a fake pass play, Jim Garwood ran 22 yards for the final tally of the game in the fourth period. Swager, who kicked the two extra points after the second period touchdowns, missed on his try after / Garwood had scored. Chicago Maroons started out the worst possible way against Wabash when’ John Davenport fumbled the opening kickoff . giving the Little Giants two points on a safety.

Hanover Wins Again

To wipe out this error, Chicago went from its 18 in the first quarter for a touchdown, the [scoring play being a 13-yard pass from Lou Letts to Robert Wasem. The other Maroon touchdown came in the third period when Chicago drove down from the Wabash 40. This time Davenport Went over. from the 1-yard line. Just to prove that it victory over DePauw a week ago last Saturday wasn’t an accident, the Hanover Panthers, playing their first game on their new field, de} gated Illinois College, 10 to 7. . DePauw never had a " Jook- -in against Ohio Wesleyan, ' which scored two touchdowns in the first period and one in every quarter thereafter. tballers were either rushing the DePauw kicker or blocking punts. |

By ELMER LAYDEN Notre Dame Football Coach

SOUTH BEND, Ind., Oct. 9.—Resuming last week's discussion . of scouting—the. importance of personnel scouting, as it concerns tipoffs, is greatly exaggerated. An official, but nonetheless respected and well-informed member of our spy system, wrote me last year that a certain star halfback among our opponents lined up with his left foot advanced noticeably every time he was going to pass. He had watched this boy through an entire game and it never failed.

In our game, there was no differencé in the way the boy set his feet for pass and run plays. I have checked our movies of the game to be sure. 1 do not say my informant was wrong. Probably the tip-off was so obvious that his own coach caught it and corrected it. We coaches scout our own feams even more rigorously than we scout our opponents, which may come. as a surprise.

Players Can Scout, Too

And I'm quite sure you'll be surprised toglearn that the best tipoff scouting is done by the players themselves in ‘the game against the scouted team. along with agility, courage, speed, and the other qualifications to play football. I place intelligence first. By this I do not necessarily mean classroom marks, although it has always been somewhat of a mystery to me why the reformers won't con‘Icede that the superior intelligence of the gridiron can be and is carried into the classroom. The player studies his opponent, and he knows him by the end of the first quarter. A scout sitting in the press box can’t pegin to catch’ the subtle tip-offs as well as

can the alert player. If an opposing half back wets his fingers before a pass play starts, you may be sure our defensive center or full back will inform his mates accordingly before long. If a tackle or guard is weakening, the quarterback will be told. Our quarterback can recognize the fact that a certain play through a certain position went for 10 yards, and he’ll call it again.

What Does He Bring Back?

What, then, does the scout bring back? Some scouting charts are even ‘more detailed than ours, but here's a sample of what we use, starting with page one which asks for: team, opponent, date, place, scout’s name, weather (wihd = direction and velocity), sky, condition of field; practice—formations used, kicks, kickers, receivers, passers, passers receivers; lineups; including first substitutions, playing + numbers, weight, position. Another ‘she t lists close formations and plays, with room for explanations and suggestions. Then comes the same information on open plays, including punt formation. Sheet four asks for an offensive summary: number of plays, yardage made and men carrying ball on

Result of U. S. Probe

It was returned May 27, 1938, by a Federal Grand Jury at South Bend after a year-long investigation by the Department of Justice. The violation is listed as a misdemeanoriand conviction would be punishable by a fine of $5000 for each defendant and imprisonment for each individugl for terms not to exceed one year. Similar indictments were returned against the other members of the industry’s “big three”—the Ford Motor Co. and the Chrysler Corp.—but the Department of Justice dropped the charges against Ford and Chrysler when they entered consent decrees. Under the decrees, approved Nov. 15 by Federal Judge Thomas W. Slick in District Court here, the companies agreed to abandon certain allleged coercive practices in automobile financing on which the indictments were based.

500 Witnesses to Testify

The decrees are contingent on the General Motors case. If General Motors and its co-defendants are acquitted, the decrees will be voided. If the Government wins the decrees will be permanent. General Motors, was not ‘permitted to enter a consent decree, according to the Department of Justice, because it did not offer an “acceptable” program. The {rial, with. Judge Walter Lindley of Danville, Ill, presiding, was expected to last three months. Defense and Government attorneys said about 500 witnesses would testify.
