Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-10-12

The Notre Dame eleven arrived in
New York this morning and imme-
diately left for the Notwithstanding
more Club at Rye, N. Y, where they
will make preparations for a prac-
tice session at Ebbets' field this af-
ternoon to tune up the team for to-
morrow's great battle with the
Cadets of West Point.
In tomorrow's game, one of the
most important college contests on
this falls program, the Westerners
will face a bigger and faster eleven
than has represented West Point in
some time. Football critics say the
Army this season can come near fiat
tening anything in the East,
The Cadets have a husky set of
veteran forwards and the only weak
ness of the team may be found in
the ends. Bill Wood will take care
of the kicking and in Baxter and

bad way for pitchers. Aside from
Nehf, Jack Scott is the only reliable
man remaining, and he has been ill
of late. Bob Shawkey, Yankee vet
eran, has not been given a chance to
work as yet, and Pennock will be
ready for service again probably on
Sunday.
There is every indication that
Casey %Stengel, the hero of the first
game, will be in the Giant lineup to-
day as Jones or Shawkey, right
handlers, will WORK.
Baseball critics are wondering why
the Giant leader failed to start Nehf
in the opening game so that he could
work at least two other contests in
this series. According to the ar
rangements made Nehf cannot work
in more than two contests.
Special interest is conferred in the
present series because of the fact
that both contests have been decided
by home runs.
The returns given by the News
every afternoon are received by large
delegations, and at the completion of
each game a baseball extra is pub
iiShed.

An ends chief duty is to see that

turn all plays in on the tackle. He
should never be Knocked off his feet.
He must think fast and try to break
up plays before they have been
formed. He should take about three
steps behind the line of scrimmage
and then hesitate until he finds the
ball, so that he will lot over-run
the play and be fooled on a double
