Today the Irish" mourn and by the
Irish" is not meant the relatively small
group of Notre Dame students and
alumni, whom the sports world has dub
bed with that name, but the millions of
Americans who follow football in any ca
pacity whatsoever.
All are Irish today as they grieve for
Knute K. Rockne. victim of yesterdays
air tragedy in Kansas. The grief that
engulfs South Bend, Indiana, where
Rockne was a demi-god, is no more sim
cere than the grief in Los Angeles, where
his greatest gridiron foes and staunchest
friends bow their heads in memory of
great man.
The whole country loved Rockne, not
because he was winner who eXcelled,
but because he played the game hard and
square and clean. He was Snowman
enough to recognize the value of color
in the sports world and because it helped
the game and his team, he took advan-
tage of every opportunity to increase the
renown of team called the Irish
coached by Scandinavian and made up
in large measure of Italians, Poles,
French, Jews and now and then des-
cendant of the Irish.
A man must be real man, to win
others to him as he did. His own players
never murmured or grumbled at the hard
grind of the football season. 1t was for
Rock" as much as for Notre Dame that
they played Any of the hundreds of
young men who passed under his tute-
lage would willingly have obeyed any
command or request he made. A slap
on the back from Rock" was to them as
much honor as the knights of old felt
in receiving the stroke of the kings
sword
But he had thousands of other follow
ers in all parts of the country, who new
err were near Notre Dame in their lives.
Wherever his team played it found loyal
support and football followers were as
anxious and as thrilled to get sight OF
the bald-headed Rock" as they were to
see the many gridiron stars whom he

WEST TO INSPECT
OPPOSED RAIL LINE
Commissioner to Take Trip
Over Traction Route to
Greenfield.

Commissioner Jere West of the
public service commission is to take
a new course in the Greenfield in
terurban abandonment case.
He will do what Greenfield OPP
ponents of the abandonment might
term visit the scene of the crime"
At the close of the testimony in
the case Thursday afternoon, West
arranged to go over the route pro-
posed to be abandoned and the
route to be sub tuted for the Rich
mond line. He will be accompanied
by Mayor Arthur C. Downing of
Greenfield and H v. Norford, gen
eral superintendent of maintenance
of way for the Indiana Railroad,
insult owned.
The insult proposal is to abandon
the T. H., I. & E. route to Richmond
from indianapolis as far as Dun
reith. This would leave Greenfield
without traction service and the
shops there would be removed to
Anderson.
The substitute line would be the
present insult route to Newcastle
then over to Dunreith and on to
Richmond.
Greenfield opponents Of abandon
ment used only insult witnesses to
try and prove their contentious.
These are that the present route is
shorter, less dangerous and through
a more denSely populated territory.

GREENCASTLE, Ind, Sept. 25.-
"These few meddlesome alumni will

Oman away from a student body
as devoted to him as that of De

in the De Paw, tri-weekly student
publication of which Thoburn H.

Attacks on President Oman
started several months ago when
the charge was made at a meeting
OF aluminium in indianapolis that
bringing radical and peace adj
vocates to the campus for lectures
was making the university a hotbed
of sex, sovietiSm and socialism"
Another broadside was fired at
the president during the summer
when it was reported he visited
Russia and attended a communist
gathering. DR.. Oman cabled that
he had not been in Russia.

REPLEvIN SUIT
TESTS TOWN
Car Owners Rights to Be
Set Out in Case.

Legal proceedings were in progress
today in superior court two to test
the city town ordinance with a
replevin suit, demanding return of
an owners automobile and $500
damages for it's detention.
Andrew Jacobs, criminal court
pauper attorney, brought the court
action Thursday to obtain his au-
tomobile, towed-in to the Indian
apolis Motor Inn.
This case is expected to test right
of car owners to assert their rights
of ownership as against possession
of their car, even for traffic dis
obedience.
The car was taken from a down.
town parking place for violating the
ordinance prohibiting parking in the
business district between 7 and 9:15
a. m.
Setting out that the car was not
seized for taxes, or any other legal
cause, the complaint names as de-
PENDANTS the Motor Inn, the Indi-
annapolis safety board, and chief OF
police.
William A. Boyce, who recently
brought another action in behalf of
business men to test validity of the
ordinance, is serving as Jacobs at
torney. The other case has been
venued from the county.
