STRENUOUS GRIND

Harper Puts NOtre Dame Men
Through Three Hours of
PraCtiCe-MilIS is Showing
Up Well at End.

Hard practice and over three hours
of 10 was the dose Coach Harper pre-
soribed for his men Tuesday. From
1:3O until they staggered off Cartier
field at $50. the squad ran through
signal drill. dummy tackling and
blocking. kicking and a line scrim-
mage with scarcely an intermission
The principal new features introduced
into Tuesdays work was practice in
making interference and lodging for
the backheld While Asst. Coach
Rockne was putting the lnemen
through short but hard scrimmage
Harper was Initiating the back field
into the mysteries of these phases Of
the game
Harper again emphasized the kick

had him drop kicking and he showed

almost certain TO win "A place on the
team.
look for Line Fight
The fight for line places this year
promises 10 be one Of the pTettiest
ever. There is an abundance OF heavy
material out OF which line Coach
Iockne hopes to develop one of the
heaviest and best lines that ever wore
the gold and blue. Besides the places
of Rockne and Gushurst at ends If
Fitzgerald is shifted TO center which
seems probable. both the places at
guard will be open although the man
who beats Keefe. who alternated at
guard last year with King will have
some job on his hands.
NOelkers. who played center last
year. was shifted to end. He looks
well in his new position. He would
make an excellent running mate for
Mills. Mills is making a hard fight
for end. The lanky baseball and
Basketball star shows phenomenal
ability in pulling down forward passes.
Larkin. track man and candidate
for halfback last year and again this
time, is going like a streak of light
ming these days "Bunny's' speed
should put him a long ways toward
making the backfeld this year
Coach Harper saw about 30 men out
Tuesday afternoon and for a while
there was four squads working on the
field at the same time.
All Of last years team are now
back with the exception of LathrOp.
last years big guard; Bergman. a
prominent candidate for half and
Heinie Berger. varsity halfback.
These men are expected in this week.

COACH LOOKS FOR
MAN At FULLBACK
Serious Injury to Martin Ne
CeSSitateS Shift in High
School Squad-Two Players
After Back Field Position.

Gloom settled itself on the high
school football camp and rested on the
brow Of Coach Metzler yesterday.
The reason for the dark outlook was
the injury Of Fullback DiehI Martin
while running back punts Monday
night
The facial bones under the right .Sye
were broken in a collision with Scott
and an operation was performed on
them Tuesday afternoon. DIS Olney
and Swantz performed the operation
and reported his condition as favor
able last night.
Scott and Martin were running back
punts with Martin acting as interfer-
ence at his side when Scott suddenly
swerVed to avoid a tackler and his
head smashed Martin under the right
eye The injury was not thought seri-
GUS at the time and Martin continued
with the signal drill An examination
showed however that the bones were
broken.
With Martin gone from the back
line. for the first few games OF the sea
son at least. Metzler faces the task OF
picking a man capable Of hlling his
shoes. Several men are contending
for the job but seem to lack the abil-
ity OF Martin.
Anderson and Garfield are two OF
the most likely candidates. Garfield
has il on Anderson I'm the point Of
weight while Anderson has a knack
of gaining a few more feet on every
play. These men viii put up n hot
fight for the place and a selection will
not be made until the last minute.
Mas Shift "SuIlie"
It is highly probable that Sullivan
Will be shifted 10 the backline in
case Martin is kept permanently from
the game 'Sullie" has plenty OF
speed and would be an ideal teanmate
for Fernandez. Wolf and Scott. This
quartet would give the school about
the fastest backline that IL has had
in quite a while.
Capt Whiteman did much OF the
punting last night and is developing
fast in this branch Of the gridiron
pastime. His kicks are high and well
placed and the ends are able 10 get
down under them. Scott is a close
rival Of his captain for kicking honOrs
and the team will be well supplied
with hooters.
Real signal work was given the men
Tuesday. Metzler lined them up and
drilled them nearly an hour in forma-
tons and plays. The squad readily
itself TO the changes and
made good progress. II a good man
can be developed for fullback and
guard. the team will be nearly as
strong as the one OF last year. al
though lighter.

MAY SETTLE HOME RULE
See Chance to Evolve Federal System
For Whole Empire.

LONDON, Sept 16.-In the house
Of commons Tuesday Arthur BOnar
Law said that he hoped that as one
result of the war il might be pos
sible to evolve a federal system for
the whole empire wherein the settle
ment of the Irish home rule difficulty
would sink to proper proportions.
Prime Minister Asquith said that II
the home rule question is easily solved
it was absolutely unthinkable that
force should be employed to impose
the bill on the unwilling section Of
the Irish people.
John Redmond, leader of the ma
tionalists, repudiated the imputatiOn
that he made any condition regarding
the loyalty of the Irish people in the
war crisis. such a condition, he said,
was unnecessary.

NATIONAL LEAGUE
To INSURE JUMPS
No Reason Given for Paying
Premiums on Indicator Hand
IerS-Hub Perdue Thinks he
Could Get a Bit.
BY FRANK G. NfENKE.

Sh-hi A mystery.
The National league is going to in
sure its umpires against accidents.
Why? That's the mystery.
Just because" explain the Nation
al leaguers. They go no farther.
They leave the rest 10 conjecture.
VIII accident policies be taken out
to protect the jumps from loss should
they be wounded by the cruel words
flung at them by Heinie the Zim.
John McGraw. Clark Griffith, John
Evers and others? or is it to pro-
tect them from the onslaughts Of fans
armed with pop bottles?
The policies will be so worded that
any umpire rendered hOTs de combat
will receive $25 each and every week
during the period of suffering and re-
cuperation. Should he be killed on
the field OF battle, or any other place
his widow and orphans Will get
$500. The said widows and or
phans will get double that if the kill
ing takes place through the medium
of some public conveyance.
Hub Perdue. the Cardinal twirler
and the weakest batter in the older
league. says il isn't his fault-its the
fault Of the umpires.
Those fellows won't give me
chance" declared Hub.
"Whaddayamean? queried a by
stander.
''WeH. darn 'em. they don't let me
get three swipes at the ball. explain
ed Hub. eff l got three swipes
know I could lam that ball out OF the
lot. But all usually get is about
one. Just the other day I walked to
the plate feeling sure that I could hit
out a homer or a three-bagger. L
took my place and a ball whistled by.
Strike one. yelled Bill Klein.
ct was kind of afraid Bill would
call the next a strike so I swiped at il.
1t was a foul. The third ball came
along and Bill said I was out. How
the dickens can a fellow do any bat
ting when the umpires rob him of a
couple of swipes?"

flag Hugh Jennings.

We'll cop."-John McGraw.
From the above remarks il is to be

But Connie Mack isn't worrying.
as easy to him as beating one, and
there's more glory in a double tri-
umph.
Teams whose names begin with the
letter "B" have quite a reputation for
breaking pennant winning streaks.
Will il repeat this year in the case of
the Braves? Here is the past record
OF the BIS"
Chicago won the pennant i'm 1880,
1881 and 1882 Then Boston stepped
in and won In 1888.
Boston won in 1891, 1892 and 1898.
Baltimore won in 1894.
Baltimore won in 1894, 1895 and

The Athletics won in 1910 and 1911.
The Boston Red SOX beat them to the
tape in 1912.
The Giants copied in 1911, 1912
