four horsemen was ready today Il
meet the driving Trejans from South

600 persons were expected to see the

Notre Dame expected to win by
matching its reserve strength and
speed against the Trojan driving
ability, driving ability which has
been good enough to beat every op'
poncnt except California.
The Irish entered the game unde.

Much of the Irish success appears
TO be the result of good bsckfield,
which numbers at least eight men,
each about as good as the other.
These backs, among whom are
eCaridee. Elder, sSaroldi, Mullins,
Schwartz, O'Connor and Gebert, have
been good enough to score against
all opponents and Notre Dame fans
were confident they were good
enough to beat the, Troians.
Although there were plenty of bet
ters willing to back the CALIFORNIA;.
it was noticeable that most of them
wanted odds. The odds varied.
Some persons were willing to take

wanted to lay even money and take

tickets to the game. What few per-
