1t would take firSt-claSS foot
ball team to get away with that
schedule and mine is far from that.
They may say I'm crying wolf,
but, really, I'm only making a state
ment of fact. I called the turn on
the Army game, didn't I?'
The writer assured Mr.. Rockne
that he had. Four days before the
game, he intimated that Notre
Dame would finish second. It did,
but the thing was a gratuity. If
they allowed three teams in one
and the same contest, Notre Dame
would have finished third
1t proved to be the weakest Notre
Dame outfit, by many yards, the
East has ever seen, although it
probably was showing its worst
side. Rockne seemed to entertain
this idea.
1.-THE boys forgot everything
they ever knew, and that was
none too much" he said. 'This is
the way of green teams since time
immemOrial, and mine is nothing
Il not green. Only two seniors i'm
the outfit, HanOuSek and Grove.
Incidentally, our early games
were too easy. They gave the boys
the idea they were good when they
weren't.
However, alibis and post NOR
tens are out. That was a great
Army team, one of the best I've
ever seen from the point, and I've
watched quite few OF them as
coach and player. They outplayed
US from the first jump, and de-
served every one of their % points"
All of which nobody can deny.
Any Notre Dame team that tries
tWenty-four forward passes and com.
pletes only four; that ventures just
twice beyond midfield with the hall
in its possession and that sees its
passer ia okled yards behind the line
OF scrimnnage times out of memory,
has been thoroughly outplayed.
Il was a NOtre Dame team
without interference, which is
tantamOunt to saying that the
match was without a head. The
opening backfieId of Edwards,
i O'BOyle, HeaTnden and Enright
soon gave place to many COM
binatiOns, none of which were
effective. HanOusek, Prelii. Roach,
GIannigan, Dahman, Riley and
Schearer also appeared in the
backfield from time to time but
without effect.
They tried running with the ball
but had no interference. They
tried a passing attack and neither
the line nor the backfield gave
the pas ;er the slightest protection.
HempeC in on all sides, he either
cast the ball into haphazard space
or was. tackled far in the rear Of
the scrimmage line.
The ends, Wallace, Grove, RigAli
and others, gave a fair account
OF themselves. McMannon, at one
tackle, was big, strong and active,
but the Army forwards fooled him
easily. j. Smith played good foot
bah at one of the guard positions.
The rest of them. however, were
outclassed by q surprisingly eff
Gent Army line.
Brains said Mr.. Rocknc,
brains. That is the answer. We
had brains in the line last year.
! don't mean to say that these
boys are dumb They just don [
know. They may be good football
players by the end of the season.
Right now they are little more
than high school PLAYERS"

In a situation such as this, where

players who have esta blished notable

Mccarthy admitted that there wasn't
an outstanding star in the Ameri-
can Association during the past
season, and he should know
all about the class OF diamond talent
in that circuit, having served four
teen years. For six seasons he
managed the Louisville Colonies, and
no other pilot ever was retained by
the Kentuckians for more than three
years.
Just who will be traded or sold,
whichever way Mccarthy feels
about 1t, is not told, but it is al
most certain that Meanwhile will
be shifted. 1t can hardly be ex-
,pected of Mccarthy to keep the
man who recently piloted the club.
President Veeck received word
from Charlie Hollocher saying the
shortstop was feeling pretty good
and that he hoped to return to the
club next year and be Of great
service. Holly in his letter appears
enthusiastic. but his real physical
condition is not known to the club
officials.
The new skipper of thes Bruins,

with the latter club Joe was re-
garded as a whale of a second
baseman.
At that time Bill Clymer. now
coach of the Cincinnati Reds, was
leading the Colonies, and, realiz-
ing the ability of Mccarthy, the
former paired him with Roxey

Win New Style Frog Pull Easily;
Neither Team Able to Get
Flag in Flag Rush.

The sophs again walked over the
frosh in the second series Of class
scraps held between halves Of the
football game held Saturday by win
ming the new 'frog pond" pull and
tieing in the flag rush. This gives
the sophomores two victories to none
for the frosh and two ties.
The flag rush proved to be a repe-
tition of last years, with neither side
able to send a man up the pole dur
ing the whole period. One freshman
had his arm thrown out during the
encounter, but the injury was only
temporary.
The novel "frog pond" pull with
two teams Of 1000 pounds apiece
striving to drag each ether through q
stream of water from a fire hose
proved short but exciting. The soph.

Improving on
History

/ just finished hearing a Politician,
one of the Washington Boys, talk
on Abraham Lincoln. The only
thing / could picture in common
between him and Lincoln was that
they had both been in Washington.
When a Politician amt talking
about himself he is talking about
Lincoln. Lincoln has had more
Public men, speak of his good
qualities, and fewer copy any Of
them, than any man America ever
produced. His famous address was
only about two hundred words
long. No Politician has ever been
able to even copy his briefness.
In. fact that is the last one of his
qualities that they would try to
copy. Lincoln said more in those
200 words than has been said in
the entire City of Washington in
the last 10 years, and here is a
quality that no historian or speaker
has ever brought out before. AT
the completion of the Gettysburg
speech, he wisely refused one Of
Granes Cigars, and borrowed a
sack Of ''Bull'' Durham from an
Ex Southern private, rolled his
own, got on his Mule and went
back to Washington.

WOODS SPEEDBOATS
FACING TOUGH TEST

NEW YORK, May 21.-Gar Wood,
Detroit speedboat pilot, will have an
unexpected record to shoot at Monday
when three of his boats race the Twen-
tieth Century Limited from Albany,
n. Y, down the Hudson to New York
City.
B. F. Hoyt's speedboat Teaser stole
a march on Wood yesterday. 1t set a
record of hours and 40 minutes for
the estimated $50 miles, an average of
50 miles an hour. The Century's
scheduled running time is 33 minutes
slower over a distance of 145 miles.
The Teaser did not actually race the
train. however.
Woods will be the first race broad
cast, mile for mile, by radio. A giant
plane will fly above the boats in view
of both the train and the river. An
nouncers with radio telephone and
telegraph transmitter will report from
the plane to interconnecting land sta
tionS, which will relay the messages
to stations WGY, Schenectady, and
WIZ, New York.
Wood will have to travel consider
ably faster than the Al $40 miles on
hour with which he set a world speed
boat record at Hamilton, Ontario, in
1922. His three boats. the Baby Gar
", piloted by himself: the Baby Gar
V, piloted by his brother George, and
the Cigarette, Jr., piloted by l.. Gordon
Hammersley, will be run up the river
Saturday. The next day will be spent
in tuning up the engines. The start
will be made when the Century is due
to cross the Hudson River bridge at
Albany at 6:23 am, Eastern standard
time. Monday.
We'll be out to beat Hoyt's record
as well as the train" Wood said.
