NOTRE DAME HERE AGAIN
~ DANIEL.

III W Y Nlottol oNeh 'sa',
,eason the East has thus far maintained
lts supremacy. In nine contests with,
Western and Southern representatives
Eastern elevens have won seven. lost
me and tied one. Against teams from
Dixie Northern collegians have won hve
md tied one. The West has lost two
10 the East and taken one.
While the East's achievements against
he South have not been In the nature OF
surprises. its success in games with the
West has been highly gratifying. espe-
.ially as II has been attained on West
,rn fields. The first victory for the East
vas scored by Colgate when II defeated
illinois by Is to 3. Last Saturday Tufts
idded another, at the expense OF In
llama. ~ TO 10. but Michigan scored for
he West by defeating Syracuse, II to 10.
When the Colgate-Illinois and Tufts
Indiana games were scheduled last win
,er they were expected to develop West
I'm victories. Illinois In particular was
regarded as having the victory already
tucked away but Bob Zuppke found out
hat even in an out OF the way place
ike Hamilton. n. ", there was enough
rood football to discount the best the
West could produce.
Western Critics "soPe."
Eastern success has not been to the
Vests liking. After the Colgate VIC
tory some of the critics GU; yonder de-
rlared II was no wonder that Larry
3ankhart had so strong a team. He al
lowed freshmen TO play on II! Other
aspersions were cast. despite the fact
hat Colga.e's student body. freshmen
and all. IL about one-sixth the size Of
hat at Illinois. ,
On their return from the game with
Indiana Tufts players declared that they
had been given a raw deal by the ON |
.ials, and that the crowd had yelled SO
loud when Tufts had the ball that the
men could not hear the signals. This
resulted In a mixup hat gave Indiana a
:hanca to start of on Its touchdown.
The West hailed the result as q vir-

NOtre Dame Progressive.
Those who seek an exhibition OF the
Vest and most advanced football could
no more attractive contest thar that
etween Notre Dame and the Army to-
morrow. The HOLSTERS can be d%epeuded
IN to nash something out OF the ordi-
,eary. and II the cadets desire to add the I,
to their list they will have 10 play
'etter football than they have shown In
my other tilt this year.
Notre Dame and the Army opened
ootball relations in 1913, when the
V~esterners won by IS TO 10. The next
ear saw the Army triumph over a much l
weakened Notre Dame combination by
70 to 7. but last November Jesse Harper
brought another first class eleven 10 the
.oint and won by 7 TO o. 1t Is the ,
"S " III " ZIG score. ,
Even though Notre Dame did give the !
q severe beating In 1913 II did the ,
oidiers a good turn. Notre Dame :
pened up an aerial attack such as the =
last had never seen before and which q
no Westerners had been developing for =
hree years. 1t had not been thought .
ossfble here that the forward pass could /.
70 developed into so formidable a scor. ]

Rockne at one OF the wings. Notre c
worked a succession Of sensational '
passes that had the cadets by .
No ears They could do nothing to ston .
! but they learned a lot. !
Use II to Beat Navy, q
NO sooner had Notre Dame gore home /.
ian the Army got busy with the forward /,
ass and soon brought II to a high stage
Z development. The Army had not
eaten the Navy since 1905. and in the
aas II saw a medium for its salvation. .
against the Navy at the Polo Grounds y
10 cadets opened UP a forward passing s
ttack that puzzled the middies even as a
'oere Dame mad puzzled the Army. and d
10 soldiers beat their rivals by 20 to y
n 1914 and again last year the Armv n
on. and each time the forward pass :
tood out in the West Pointers attack. =
Noue Dame has no Rockne or Dorais '
~ year. but II has a well balanced 4
even which has not been scored on. II
leo up so points on Wabash last Sat
and previously defeated the Has
Gil Indians and Western Reserve.
