Favored Over
Cornell Rivals

By United Press
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 27.-More
than $4,000 persons braved tt cold
at Franklin Field today to watch
Pennsylvania and Cornell renew a
football rivalry that started back
in the nineties.
Penn, despite severe trouncings at
the hands of Wisconsin and Notre
Dame, ruled a decided favorite.- The
Red and Blue came back after the
Wisconsin loss to trim a powerful
Kansas eleven and rallied after the
Notre Dame defeat to whip Geor-
gia Tech. The Quakers had a rest
of ten days All cripples were back
in the lineup.
Cornell hasn't scored a victory
over their old rivals rince 1928 when
George Phann and his teammates
registered a 14-to-7 triumph. In
1926 the two teams battled to a
1910 tie. The series between the
two teams now stands twenty-Seven
victories and two ties for Penn,
against seven Cornell triumphs.

A Versatile Lad Was Student Knute;
Vaulted High and Played the Flute
BY WILLIAM BRAUCHER
NEA Service Snorts Writer

CLEVELAND, o., Nov. 27-In
~ the Dome" Of 1913, the Notre
Dame yearbook. is a picture of a
young man dressed as Mrs. Smith, :"
one Of the roles in the play David
Garrick."
That introduces your friend,
Knute Rockne, the Bald Eagle of
South Bend. in a brand-new role
female inpersonator.
If you can figure that one out,
here's another: Knute Rockne at
Notre Dame was a piccolo player!
Old friends of the coach of what
apparently has now proved one of
the two best teams in the country,
confided a few chapters from the
student life of Rockne.
Rockne Was Track Star
I'VE first knew Rockne as a. pole
vaulter, and he was not the best
known boy on the campus in those
days. In chemistry he was wizard.
He became known as a good elocu-
zionist and took part in many of the
plays.
The trait that always marked
Rockne as we knew him in those
days was tenacity. When he set
about to do something he chung to
his task like a bulldog. He had
quiet confidence in his ability to
accomplish anything he undertook.
HE was great pole vaulter. In
those days twelve feet was a SEN
sational mark. Knute finally at
tanned it, after long hours of prac-
tice. He also spent a lot of time
in the laboratory, experimenting
with this and that.
Became Science Assistant
Even before Rockne graduated
he was assistant professor Of chem
istry.
"The seventeen-year-old copy of
the Dome shows Rockne as a
player in the band. The follow
ing verse, by one of the student
writer's, concerns the musical young
chemistry prof:
while lively-going Knute,
Who sometimes plays the piccolo,
Received applause from all
For recovering the pigskin.'1

of Rockne's day reveals other in
teresting notes about the young
man Such as; May TRACK

CHICAGO, Nov. 27-The middle
west will have its first opportunity
to see the traditional Notre Dame
Army football game Saturday at
Soldier Field and unless Coach
Knute Rockne is mistaken, the rec
ord crowd of 10000 spectators will
witness the Irish teams first defeat
since 1928.
Rockne told his squad Wednesday
he believed Army would win, and in
sisted the prediction was made in
good faith.
Army is indicated" he said.
THE Cadets will play with the in
spiration Of long rivalry, rivalry
which has no superior since the
Navy game was removed from the
West Point schedule. In addition
they have an advantage in condi-
ton. Kentucky Wesleyan and Ur-
sinus, opponents of the last two
weeks have not extended Army,
while our game with Northwestern
left us in a weakened condition"
Snow prevented Wednesdays
scheduled outdoor drill-the first
workout since the Northwestern
gaRse-and it is probable that Notre
Dame will go into Saturdays game
without a single real drill for the
contest.
Armys squad, generally rated as
the strongest in the east, now is
en- route to Chicago and is reported
IN prime condition for the game
The Cadets have the same line
which held Notre Dame to a 7-to-0
score in 1929 and wealth of
capable backs.
