.ROCKNE SEES DEFEAT
IN COAST STRUGGLE
By the Associated Press.

by the ASSOCldIeQ ETeSS.
TUCSON, Ariz, November 30-The
scrappiest team Knute Rockne ever has
coached at Notre Dame, according to
his own statement, will carry the foot
ball banneri of the South Bend institu-
ton into the intersectional struggle at
Los Angeles tomorrow with Southern
California.
The sage of South Bend pessimisti-
cally views the outcome of the impend-
ing battle, however, and has gone so far
as to concede defeat. declaring the
game will resolve itself into a question
of how low the score can be kept. But
he leaves that answer to his players,
saying to them:
IT have had a lot of fighting foot
ball teams during my years at Notre
Dame, but never coached an eleven
that has fought harder against insur-
mountable odds and diSheartening OBJ
stacles than this 1923 machine"
Rockne and his ramblers boarded a
Los Angeles-bound train this morning
for the last lap of the westward jour-
ney. The team was due in the Cali
fornia metropolis at o'clock this aft
ernoon.
The squad was benefited by two days
of rigorous workouts under Western
climatic conditions. The Rockne men
rambled through their final drill yes
terday, Sprinting through two hours
Of practice that consisted mainly of
drill in defense against Trojan forma-
tions.
After hanging up their cleated train
ing shoes, the ramblers idled the after
noon away in the stands of the foot
ball stadium here, watching the Univer-
sity of Arizona Wildcats claw up the
Whittier College Poets. % to Z.
A word of cheer was forthcoming
from the team physician, who said John

for the game. He declared the ram
bier halfback apparently had suffered
a misplaced vertebra in his neck two
weeks ago, but that the bone had been
snapped back into place.

N EW YORK, November 30-Five
N of the country's seven major
VI foot ball championships have
4 been decided. Only the East
and South still are in the
doubtful stage and the chances are
that both will remain that way, even
after all the returns are in.
Illinois captured the Western Con-
ference title last Saturday on the same
day that Southern California won the
crown on the Pacific Coast, but the
other three conference winners waited
until Thanksgiving day to make their
titles clear.
A driving Snowstorm at Lincoln,
Nebr., made good foot ball next to i'm
possible. but the CornhuskerS of the
University of Nebraska took advantage
of what breaks there were to score an
8-to-0 victory over the Kansas Aggies
and walk away with the Big Six"
championship. Nebraska finished its
conference schedule undefeated. The
Aggies also finished with a perfect rec
ord-they didn't win a championship
game. BY turning back Missouri's
Tigers, II to 0, Oklahoma finished in
tie for runner-up position with the
Tigers.
Showing a surprising reversal of
form, the Utah Redskins clinched the
Rocky Mountain Conference title by
defeating the Utah Aggies, 20 to 0.
The Redskins had held the lead all sea-
son, but gave their supporters many
an anxious moment in the last two
weeks, when they were tied by Creigh-
ton and Brigham Young.

largest crowd that ever saw foot ball

attitude deserves about the highest
praise coach can get.
Virginia lost a heart breaking game
to North Carolina. 1t led at the end
of the first half. Then North Caro-
lima went in and scored and North
Carolina led by Is to IA. Then Vir-
ginia got another touchdown and led
until near the end of the game by 20
to 10. Finally North Carolina got
another count and the score at the end
stood "a to 20 in favor of North Caro-
lima. That was just the kind of game
that leaves spectators as well as players
completely exhausted. Such a game
takes from players and spectators more
nerve force than would be thought pos
sible.
Virginia Military Institute completely
ruined Virginia Polytechnic Institutes s
season. The Cadets simply killed off
the Blacksburg eleven as far as any real
all-Southern honors are concerned, and,
more than that, v. P. I. likes just about
as we'll to lose to w. M. I. as the aver
age man likes to lose his legs. Last

sure-thing victory V. M. I. came along
and cleaned up, and this year when it

Probably that 49-to-O defeat Jf Cornell
at the hands of Penn yesterday was the
worst beating any Dobie eleven ever
got. There was nothing to the game
apparently but an avalanche of Penn
touchdowns.
Georgetown left last night for De-
| troit, where it meets the Detroit Uni
versity eleven tomorrow. The Blue and
Gray squad left here fairly confident
of victory, despite the fact they meet
an unbeaten eleven.
The game between Army and Stan
| ford tomorrow at New York will be well
played and perhaps one of the best foot
ball games of the year. 1t ought to be
one of the best if conditions are good
as both elevens specialize in a fast
deceptive attack One of the biggest
crowds of the year will watch the game
too, as it is the first time that one OF
the big California elevenS has played
