ROCKNE NOT WORRIED
BY VAST GRID LOSSES
Bv the Associated Press.

Bv the Associated Press
NEW YORK, June 10.-Knute
Rockne, coach of the Notre Dame
foot ball eleven, which defeated
rivals East and West and produced
one of the greatest backfields in his
tory in the last three years, doubts
very much that the 1925 team will
compare with the one that boasted
the -four horsemen."
I'VE lost our entire first eleven,
seven men from the second team and
Ave from the third" he said, while
stopping off on his journey to Will
liamsburg, Va, to begin Summer
coaching.
I'VE do not expect to have a team
next Fall which can compare with the
finished eleven of last Fall, all of
whom were third-year men. 1 don't
see a man in our backfield reserves
who will measure up to Stuhldreher,
Crowley, Layden or Miller.
"It is not necessary to win always
Competition Is the thing which makes
the game worth while. OF course,
we play to win and we like to win,
but a good fight is what we want
and we are willing to lose to get the
full benefit of competition

Job. But taking the job regularly was
too much for his blind feet.
BressIer Out of Place.
Jack Hendricks, the Cincinnati
manager, insisted on starting Bressler
at first, however, because Bressler was
$50 batter and he wanted a $50
batter at first. First base sluggers
in the past have proved to be very
good assets to the old-fashioned game
of base ball, but if a pennant in the
big leagues is at stake, feet must be as
clever as heads and both must be as
good as the players batting ability.
Niehaus probably is a slow beginner.
In the Southern Association last year
no attention was paid to him at the
start of the season, but at the finish

this must necessarily reduce the fac

Gene Looked Good"
In looking forward to the probable
outcome of bout between the cham
pion of the world and Gene Tunney,
one fact has to be faced at the out
set. Gene made much better show
ing against Gibbons than Dempsey
did at Shelby. There is no getting
around that at all.
The writer saw the Shelby fight
from the ringside just as he wit
messed Friday nights battle. And,
aside from the knockout, which alone
would give Tunney a better standing
with reference to Gibbons than
Dempsey enjoys. Gene did more effec-
tive work throughout than did the
title holder.
Gibbons had never been the mark
for any one that he was for
Tunney. In close, Genes quick, sharp
delivery of hard, short-arm jolts had
Gibbons worried from the first round
on. 1t was these wallops which in
the early rounds cut Tommy's lip,
caused his nose to bleed and, later
in the fight. opened a bad cut over
the left eye which could not be closed
and which obviously interfered with
the st. Paul mans vision.
When the fight was over Gibbons
was marked more than he had been in
all the other battles he had fought
throughout his career. At Shelby,
the only signs of his encounter with
Dempsey were two black eyes, the re-
suit of the only really effective blow
that Jack delivered throughout the
fight, wallop on the forehead just
above the nose.
Gene had never shown an ability
to hit so quickly and with force so
great as he displayed in the Gibbons
bout. He used his right only occa-
sionally, but when he let 1t go he sell
dom missed.
Such accuracy would be sure to
play havoc with Dempsey's weak spot,
his nose, unless Jack put Gene away
with one punch early in the battle
Whether Dempsey cal do this remains
