BY SOL METZGER.

Watch Notre Dame this Saturday
in its first encounter with strong
Eastern team, the Navy. Will
Rockne's 1928 bunch come up to the
standard of the past four or five
years? That is the big question.
Many of the stars, such as the feet
footed Flanagan. have been lost.
The Navy, too, Is dangerous op-
ponent so early because its men are
in as: fine condition now as the
other big teams will be in by mid
November.
Rockne obtained an easy victory
over the Navy in their first meeting,
at Baltimore last Fall. The dope has
it his team will come through Sat-
urday. even though stars have gone
the graduation route. Why do foot
ball men feel that way about
Rockne'S elevens year after year?
It's because they depend upon high
ly developed team play for success.
The -Four Horsemen" of 1924 and
the outstanding running of Flana-
gan these past few years has been
due to the support of the team.
Take the play shown, the cut-in
run off tackle that enables the back
to reverse his field and break for
long runs. It's one of Rockne's
aces. Note how the runner, No. /,
starts around the end, then breaks
in between end and tackle and,
after crossing the scrimmage line
cuts in back of it and then goes
down the opposite side of the field.
Study the diagram and see how his
teammates, No. 5, No. 8. No. 4. No. 2
and three linemen clear lane for
him. Any back can makes gains
when so many help in the interfer-
ence.
