The only manifestation upon the day of Notre Danes first foot ball game since Knute Rockne' $ death was Indiana's program trib- ute "in memory of the indomi- able Viking"
 A leaflet containing characteris- tic photographic flashbacks on the life of Rockne, a repetition of his record and tributes to it, was dis tributed with the program.
 There were no ceremonies. Notre Dame said it with touchdowns aft CT some early trouble getting into motion. That was what Knute him. self would have preferred.
 It was a deadly serious business, however, for those tense young men on the sidelines, Senior Coach Hunk Anderson and Junior Coach Jack C'hevigny.
 There isn't much relaxation for them in the task of carrying on. They have great material to work with. Everybody knows it and for that reason will expect great deal to be accomplished.
 The ins pirat ation of Rockne's memory it seems obvious, will have no beneficial effects unless the boys know and carry out their blocking assignments properly.
 Moreover, it may become increas- ingly apparent as the season pro- gresses that all the brain work can't be accomplished from the sidelines.
 The development of first string quarterback with an y tn ing ap- preaching the all-around qualifi- cations of Frank Carideo, All-Am- erica star of 1929-30, is the most difficult task in Notre Danes camp.
 Replacing ball carriers and block CTS like Brill, Savoldi, O'Connor and Mullins is far from easy, but it's a cinch with all the talent at South Bend this year, compared to the job of locating another little Napoleon.

 Indiana has a good looking squad with two sets of fast backs, but it will be lucky to win one or two of it's remaining games.
 Hayes has already made prog ress. His boys gave Notre Dame a good argument, at least for the first half, before yielding to super for manpower and the heat.
 They may surprise some of the conference favorites. Vic, the elder of the Dauer brothers, both quar- terbacks, looks like a real triple threat.
 The new Indiana coach came to the Hoosiers from Mississippi A. and M. in 1924 to handle track and field sports. His success at this, plus his previous gridiron experi- ence as player and coach, led to his selection for the football job.

 The oil embargo controversy which has kept republican leaders in hot water for several days, first was brought to the notice of the caucus through the absence of five regular Kansas republicans who stayed away in protest. Later there was & futile attempt to get the caucus to go on record in favor of an embargo or tariff protection. A dozen other vacant seats served as portents of the fight next session on liberalization of house rules and progressive legislation.
 The caucus took cogniZance of the rules liberalization campaign by adopting. unanimously, resolution offered by Rep Swing, repn, Cal, in- structing republican members of the rules committee to draft recommen- datoins for rules changes and re- port them to the causus at the be. ginning of the next congress. The resolution did not specify any par ticular changes. It does not sa tis-

 Washington, Feb 27-fUP) The senate began consideration of the veterans compensation bill shortly after II a. m. to-day under circum stances assuring it's passage over President Hoover's veto.
 "The question:" announced Vice President Curtis, "is on passage of the bill, the objections of the pres idont of the United States to the contrary notwithstanding.
 "The clerk will call-"
 Senator Vandenberg, republican. Mich, interrupted Curtis effort to obtain an immediate vote and be- gan q speech, which he said would be brief, reviewing the history of the dispute.
 The galleries were crowded. as on Feb 19 when the senate first passed the bill. Veterans who could not find seats crowded the narrow spaces behind the galleries. In one gallery rat two-score fascist cadets in uni-

 Vandenberg. addressing the sen- ate. disagreed with MT Hoover's an- alysis of the situation which would be created by enactment of the loan measure.

 Senator Hastings. republican, Delaware, in a speech against the b.ll said that some ex-Soldicrs would steal the certificate from their wives and go out and borrow money to spend the night with another woman"

 Illinois service men have been par t.cularly hard hit by depression and more than 60 per cent will apply for loans to relieve immediate dis- tress, A. C. Kroom, assistant service officer of the American Legion. esti- mated.
 We estimate that nearly one third of the legionnaires of the state are out of work. In 99 per cent of the cases where applications for the new loans will be made, the money will be used to relieve actual want and suffering" Kroom said.
 From 75 to 90 per cent of the vet erans planning to apply for new loans have already borrowed up 10 the present limit on tteir certificates, veterans chiefs revealed.
 Harry J. Crosson, Pennsylvania re- gIonal director of the veterans bu- reau said that with the increase from 22 1-2 to 50 per cent in the loan value of certificates, about 50 per cent of the veterans will avail themselves of new loan facilities. The men arc around 38 to 40 years old
