CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-Notre Danes
~ point-a-minute team will swing
into the major portion of its ma
tion-wide schedule against Carnegie
Tech at South Bend Saturday.
The Irish have rolledup l35 points
in two preliminary games against
Haskell institute and Drake, and
they haven't yet put on the pressure.
The regulars played 20 minutes in
the 1910 victory over Haskell and
IL minutes in the $40 route of
Drake.
Coach Heartily Anderson vainly
tried to keep the score as small as
possible in both games, but the
second. third and fourth string play
ers refused to take it easy. Notre

There are four quarter backs,
Jaskwhich, Vejar, Murphy and
Boland. The other backs are Luz
kats, Melinkovich, Brancheau
BanaS, Sheeketski. Koken, McGuff
Leonard La. Borne. Tobin, Hagen
and Costello. They're all good, but
Lukats, Banas and Melinkovich have
proved the best ground gamers so
far.
Banas averaged nearly twenty
yards each time he carried the ball
against Haskell, gaining 1877 yards
in seven attempts. Against Drake
he gained fifty-eight yards in nine
attempts. Melinkovich made thir-
ty-f1ve yards in three attempts
against Drake. Lukats averaged
twelve yards every time he carried
the ball against NHaskeIl.

Team Appears Unbea ,eTech Next Foe

MOTRE DAME will take Car
4 negie Tech in its stride, point
ing for Pittsburgh next week. The
Pitt game may be the big hump in
Notre Danes schedule this year.
After Pitt comes Kansas, North
western, Navy, Army and Southern
California in that order.
Before the season opened, Coach
Anderson said he expected Notre
Dame to lose one, maybe two games.
Asked which games he referred to
Anderson said Pittsburgh and Army.
The chances are that Anderson
is a much better coach than he is
prophet. From this point it appears
unlikely that any team will beat
Notre Dame this year.
The material is so abundant at
South Bend, and the competition
among the players so keen that

Dame used 81 men in the Haskell
game and 40 in the Drake game.
There was a time not so long ago
when Carnegie Tech meant a real
battle for Notre Dame, but the
Tartans are not likely to prove much
of a menace to this years South
Bend club. Back in 1926, Carnegie
upset one of the late Knute Rock
mes best teams, 1910, and two years
later gave the Irish there first de-
feat on Cartier field in twenty-three
years, 27-7.
I'VE haven't the team We used to
have, said Judge Wally Steffen, SUI
perior court Judge in Chicago and
advisory coach of the Carnegie Tech
team, but we hope to give Notre
Dame as good battle as any team
will this year. Right now, Notre
Dame looks unbeatable"
