At RoCkne's Request, Feeney Acts
as Center Coach and Gets Results
Local Business Man Answers Call From Old Pal and
Develops Tim Moynihan in Week.

A message saying "Come up for
week. Won't take no for an
answer" and signed Crock" played
and important part in Notre Danes
victory over the Navy last Saturday
The message was sent one week
ago Sunday and was from Knute
Rockne and directed to Al Feeney,
Indianapolis business man and
former al-American center at
Notre Dame when Rockne wore the
moleskins as a star end.
Gives Personal Coaching
And Feeney hurried away to South
Bend to help his old pal stiffen the
middle of the Irish line in prepara-
ton for the Navy conflict. Feeney
took charge of Tim Moynihan, Notre
Dame center, and coached him in
the art of passing the ball back,
charging, blocking and on other
points.
The humping his team took at
Wisconsin Oct. worried Coach
Rockne and he was quick to per-
ceive that bad center play partly
was responsible. And he felt sure
Moynihan had the stuff to produce
if given a week of personal coach
ing by ore of the best pivot men
who ever Travelled the chalk lines.
Shines Against Navy
Hence the wire to Feeney, who
dropped his business and joined the
Notre Dame staff for a week. And
many fans who saw Moynihan in
action against the Navy will tell

nesota, Saturday, the Boilermakers
rushed down the field between the
20-yard lines, but when the Mime
sofa line was called upon to battle
and fight, the Boilermaker offense
cracked. The Phelanmen hurled
passes all over the lot and COM
pleted most of them. The final
brush-up on offense is hoped to put
the Purdue team in shape to set
back the Badgers.
Every one states that Notre
Danes warriors showed much better
at Chicago Saturday against Navy
than they did against Wisconsin,
still others insist that is not the
case. The Rockne Ramblers are
known to have outscored the
Badgers by a wide margin in first
down. Boobies at critical times
paved the way for the Wisconsin
victory. Those hobbies we're absent
agains5 Navy and that alone spelled
victory.
Notre Dame fans figure that
Rockne can improve his team each
week and the Rockne boosters are
pulling for some upsets. Georgia
Tech this weekend is no set-up and
Rockne may suffer another reverse
down there.

from Ruth Elder. who, he said, "chose
a career rather than be housewife. "
Her failure to kiss him upon her re-

that time she said to him in an under
tone:

Womack understands his suit will not
be contested. Although an interlocutory
decree may be obtained in December
under the laws, full divorce can not
be granted befor next June.
Womacks petition says his weight
has been reduced. efficiency for work
lessened and health and reason en-
dangered. He charges that his wifes
transatlantic fight attempt caused him
many SleepleSs nights. In statement
after the petition was filed he said
