SATURDAY GAME NATURAL

Chicago, Nov. 19.-P-Knute
Rockne's football juggernaut. 1880
model, will arrive at the cross roads
of its fight for recognition as one of
the greatest if not the greatest Notre
Dame football machine to steam over
the gridiron.
If the fighting Irish" al crush
the undefeated Wildcat eleven from
Northwestern by a one-sided score
without the services of their be-
whiskered ace, Jumping Joe" Savol-
di, they will gain an argument that
even supporters of the immortal
-Four Horsemen" will find difficult
to dispute.
Northwestern, with a team Of about
equal strength and fame with its
present edition of stars, forced the
-Four Horsemen" to a fight of their
football lives to win a Is to 6 decision
back in 1924. So every point over
that margin that the 1880 crew OF
fighting Irish" car pile up over
Northwestern will be used as a con-
vincing argument along with their
romp over their first seven foes Of the
present campaign.
Interest Is Intense
AS the football Natural drew
closer today, interest increased to an
intense point. With all of the $4,000
seats sold weeks ago, fans offered
fancy prices, ranging from SIS to $40
a seat and scalperS were forgetting
about the depression and the so-called
LIBERALIZATION of football. Betting
brokers reported a rushing business
with the odds ranging from 2 to l
to 5 to l on Notre Dame.
In the rival football camps, the Or
der was full steam" ahead. Rockne
swung into his stride as the dispenser
of bad news by telling his players
they are about to meet the toughest
opponent they have encountered this
year. He worked his men overtime
perfecting their interference against
the Wildcat attack. At Northwestern
Coach Dick Hanley also used psyche
logy to key up his players to a fight
ing pitch. Both teams were in good
physical condition.
Michigan Gets Ready
Michigan today settled down to
serious work for its final against the
weak Chicago team, the only obstacle
between it and a share of the Big Ter
championship with Northwestern
The over-confidence germ worried
Coach Harry Kipke no little bit.
Illinois chances of defeating Ohio
State Saturday were at a low ebb to-
day. Five Him regulars, including
Captain Olaf Robinson and Chuck
Hall of the backfield, were III the uni

State was in good condition but toe

lars remained on the casualty list, al
