Chance to Score Upset

$4,000 FANS EXPECTED
Irish Hold 5-to-1 Edge in
Series.

BIZ Times Special
EVANSTON, Ill, Nov. 21.-Tf they
pay all due attention to the tradi-
ton which has grown up around
their battles of the past, North
Westerns Wildcats will be much
wilder Saturday when they meet
Notre Danes undefeated eleven be-
fore a capacity crowd of $4,000 in
Dyche stadium.
The Northwestern eleven which
faded out before the spirited fourth
quarter drive of Indiana last Satur-
day has been drilled at length on
fundamentals this week by Coach
Hanley.
-Notre Dame battles
in the past have turned out to be
thrilling affairs, and it Is expected
that Saturdays engagement will be
no exception.
Wildcats Inspired
With their Big Ten competition
completed, the Purple eleven will be
thinking only of hating the sensa-
tional march that has carried Notre
Dame to seven consecutive victories.
The outcome of the Indiana game
likely will accomplish much in put
ting the Wildcats in the fighting
trim that was theirs before the
Illinois game.
Seven times the two rivals have
met in the past, with five games
going to the Irish, one to the Purple
and one resulting in a tie.
Northwestern scored it's long VIC
tory in 1901 by a score of 2 to O.
The Purple included Illinois, Chi
cago and Purdue in its list of vic
tins that year.
The last three battles have been
won by Notre Dame. In 1924, the
-Four Horsemen" galloped to a 49,
to-6 victory at Soldier field. The
following year at South Bend,
Northwestern grabbed a 10-to-0 lead
in the first half, only to see it melt
away in the second half, 10 to 10.
Nine Seniors on Squad
The two elevenS met for the last
time in 1926 in the newly construct
ed Dyche stadium. The game went
scoreless until the last few minutes
of the fourth quarter when the Irish
passed their way to a sensational
touchdown that brought a 6-to-0
win.
With the exception of AL Moore,
sophomore half back, Northwestern
came through the Indiana game in
good physical shape. Nine seniors
will make their last appearance in
Purple uniform Saturday.

California Likely Western

PASADENA, Cal, Nov. 2l.-Out
in this section of the country -
where coonSkin coats have no part
in the football picture-gridiron
fans are playing a merry game Of
Ring Around the Rose Bowl"
They are asking the annual ques-
ton: What team will play what
team in the annual Tournament of
Roses football game on New Years
day?"
Seven Left in Field
1t was agreed today that the af-
fair has narrowed down to the fol-
lowing classification:
West-California and ST. MaryS.
East-PittSburgh.
Midwest-Notre Dame and Purdue
South-TenpeSsee and Tulane.
c. Hal Reynolds. president of the
Tournament of Roses Association,
refused, however, to hazard a guess
on the two most likely participants.
Reynolds declared no invitation has
been issued
Most westernerS believe the Col
den Bears of California have the
inside track for first call as the
home" team. The Bears, however,
meet Stanford this Saturday and
the Cardinals may mar CALIFORNIA;
unblemished record.
Chance for st. Mary's
If Stanford should win there is
every reason to believe little st.
Mary's college of Oakland may re-
ceive a bid. st, Mary's goal line
has not been crossed this year and
California was considered lucky to
emerge with a 0 to 0 tie.
There is a growing sentiment in
this region for the Purdue Boiler
makers as the visiting aggregation.
Purdue, however, would have to
overcome a Big Ten ruling prohibit
ing post-season games. Notre Dame
also would be welcome attraction
in the bowl. Pittsburgh has sup
porters due to the flattering reports
regarding Toby Uansa, half back,
and Joe Donchess, end. Tennessee
and Tulane, rated as the best in
the south, are bound to receive con-
sideration.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Nov. al
Hoosier gridmen forgot for time
their heavy concentration on de-
Tense against Purdue's passing and

voted much of the long drill to
offensive study.
Scrimmage was light Wednesday

pared for the contest which it
hopes will win back the Old Oaken
Bucket, along with a share in the
football glory of 1929, which must
otherwise be consigned entirely to
