He is Scotch-Irish. not Swedish as 1t generally thought. His re- ligious faith is Episcopalian. He is 3S, married and has three chil- dren; Shirley Jean, z; Joan Marie, @; and Heartily William, IT,. 10 months. He has blonde hair which has thinned out until he is ap- preaching badness.
 First and last, Anderson is a football coach. He has no dyna- mic personality, no eloquent tongue and no illusions about his capacity. He mfnces no words with friend or foe.
 Quict But Effective.
 He doesn't believe in "RaN-rah stuff" and doesn't give any pep talks. He mentioned the word spirit to the players for the first time this year before the Pitts- burg game, and 1t sounded so strange to him he said:
 That's the first time I've men, ftioned that word this year." He knows that he doesn't have to keep up. Notre Dame football players and doesn't try.-
 Like Rockne, Anderson learned early how to battle against odds. He was one of Notre Dame's first and best "watch-charm" guards, standing only feet, 10 1-2 inches and weighing only ITO. As a play CT he worked his way through school.
 Worked With Gipp. He played on the same team with his high school chum, George Gipp, in 1919 and 1920 when Notre Dame won IS consecutive games. He also played in 1921 when the team lost one game 10-7 to Iowa. The Iowa team at that time was coached by Howard Jones, whose Southern California team meets Anderson's Notre Dame team Sat urday.
 He became Rockne's assistant In 1922 and coached the line until 1928 when he went to St Louis University as head coach for two years. He returned to Notre Dame last year, coaching an entire new line for the 1930 national cham pions.
 He played professional football for five years with the Chicago Bears in order to help meet ex- penses as his salary was very smoll in his early years as line coach. Reserved. He never liked to make any kind of talks. Rockne called on him for pep talk when he was an undergraduate and he pulled the classic line: "Tll do the best we (Caps) can" Using most of the same plays Rockne did last year, he has added or of his own design. He Is tireless in his attention to fundn- mentals such as blocking, charg- ing. tackling.
 Reports of dlssatisfa ction with his coaching are entirely without foundation. Jesse Harper, athletic director, regards him as one of the brainest football men in the coun- | try.
 Like Rockne, Anderson is the boss of the Notre Dame team.

 P ar a d e
BY HENRY McLEMoRE

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, November 19 - (UP) - My convictions, outside of those for such minor things as grand larceny, lese majeste, hoss stealing, bicycling on sidewalks, and keeping on my hat during Fourth of July parade are:
 That the Messrs Marchmont Schwartz, Pug Rentner and Don Zimmerman will make nine out of ten of the bigger and better ali- American backfields.
 That the above mentioned gen. tlemen deserve the honor.
 That all this talk about foot ball teams that travel long ways on trains being under handicap is strictly the malarkey.
 noWsrtu Tnst IpMsicf 9s tascnshrdIaa lanss powerful line will handcuff Albie Booth from start to finish, and that Harvard will win with ease.
 That Stribling is plenty smart in holding out for no more than ten rounds in his bout with Ernie Schaaf. And that if 1t goes ID frames. Schaaf will do the same thing to the southerner Schmeling did. ,.
 That Tunney's new heir will be raised on a strict diet of alphabet soup.
 That Acmy's twice. Heated eleven will give Notre Dame It's toughest fight of the year. And that Notre Dame might tell as give up trying to please the republic. When the Irish whipped Penn 49 to o the boys were accused of be- ing vindicative; when the Irish whipped Navy 20 to the boys were accused of billing their punches.
 That the Manchurian situation Is fraught with interest and very' very serious, indeed. Wowie!
 That 99 out of 100 interse- tional games are absurd, and are scheduled purely for the gate re- ceipts.
 labra Wompf, 3rd. will win the airedaie, competition in the Nation- al Pet Show, Madison Square Gar
 That if this Sing Sing football business keeps up, that flashy half- back Alabama Pitts is going to find himself subsidized. That the Army-Navy affair or 1880 was one of the dirtiest foot. ball games of all time, and that the 1881 game will be just as bad. That Ray Steele is the best wrestler in the business. That Barry Wood will be the fourth man in the all-America backfield we spoke of Q few lines back.
 That Chick Meehan of N. Y. U. Is the best snowman of all the foot ball coaches. That if Jack Dempsey gets In there with Schmeling he'll never answer the bell for the eighth round.
 That Mister Dempsey knows this and won't get in there with Herr Schmeling until he has picked up Q lotta heavy sugar in bouts with such slow-moving and easy-to-hit targets as, Camera, say. That no football coach in the country has done a better job this year than Chet Yynee down there at Alabama Polytechnic Auburn to you).
