SINGER-MACK FIGHT
 ON CARD IN CHICAGO
Lightweight Champion to Make First Appearance in Windy City
 in Non- Title Bout.

Chicago, Oct. 14 P-Al Singer, lightweight champion of the world will display his talent for the first time in Chicago and the middlewest, tonight in the stadium, in a 10- round non-tiale engagement with Eddie Mack of Denver.
 Singer today was big favorite over the Mexican law student, but the latter had considerable support because of his sensational showing against Tony Canzoneri a year ago. Mack lost by a technical knockout in the eight round. but was forced to give up when he suffered a sprained ankle after holding the former feath- erweight champion even.
 Other 10-rounders will bring to- gether King Levinsky, westside light heavy, and Tom Kirby, of Boston, and Kid Francis of Italy, and Harry Fierro, Chicago bantam weight star.
New Britain herald., 1930-10-14

Des Moines, Oct. IA P-Anothel threat in the versatile Notre Dame ofense has been added by Knute Rockne. It is a lateral pass, and it's execution is camouf1aged by the fake of a short eide spinner and criss-cross play.
 The faked plays actually are run off first to confuse the defense. The sequence follows in this man. ner:
 In the criss-cross play, Schwartz, No. 1 back, makes half turn to his right and gives the ball to No. ? back, who is either Savoldi or Mullins, for wide dash to the short or weak side. In this instance, tc the left. as the backfield is un- balanced to the right.
 This criss- -cross. even if unsuc- cessful, at least should pull the op- posing tackle out toward his end to allow Schwartz the next time to spin completely around, and buck the inside of the weak side of the line after making a pretense at repeat ing the criss-cross.
 By now Rockne expects the short side of the defensive. end and tackle to be in a quandary, and they probably are.
 So Schwartz again fakes the criss-cross to Savoldi, and ther feints another spinner. By this time Carideo, No. 8, and Metzger right guard, have had ample time tc come around and harass the end and Brill, No. 4, to come out and protect Schwartz as he completes the turn and starts for the sidelines
 AS soon as Savoldi has got b, the right end, Schwartz losses him the ball over the head of the in coming end. Brill continues or down the field to block the sec ondary.
