will appear to have a patch Of snow

The bluets mass themselves together
as an advertising effect to the flying

the bluet is dependent upon the assist

a plan that is most clever for cross

of a little worm may be pressed out.

to be a mass of hardened fatty mat

New York, Nov. 2.-(UP) .-Ef- forts to discuss sports in New York today went for naught because everybody seeed involved-either as citizens or strong arm men in the mayoralty election which takes place next Tuesday.
 This correspondent has been in New York for a number of years but has yet to exercise his fran ehise. one year 1t was GaribaldPs birthday and we had to place a wreath. The next year 1t was Garl- baldPs birthday all ovor again. md the folks next door had q party. Tho next year l thought I'd slip out on the Garibaldi birthday, but q fellow arrived with some brushes and l had to spend the day inside, refusing to answer the doorbell. Last year Babe Gray came up from Georgia with some corn.
 But this year Two been intending to get that old franchise out, and go out and exercise her. Yet l hesitate. In most cities you can go up and cast off Q ballot, get your cigar and go back to work. But in New York, some districts have less pleasant regulations.
 In some places they have q SO. cial group, 50 the allegations run, which Is known as Hoodlums, Ltd. It's members are dedicated to serv- fec. It is their job on election day to stand outside tho polling places with very tough looks on their faces and very hard implements in their hands, or In their coat pockets. The clttzen who brings his franclse around Is supposed to vote the way thoir employers desire the early and late returns to be.

Failure to observe the first les sons in footballs primer and varia- tions of these important rudiments is largely responsible.
 Notre Dame's ills may be listed bluntly as follows:
 Feeble tackling atrocious blocking poor generalship disdirected offense lack of Q leader.
 Unbclieyablye
 Notre Dame has gained S97 yards In four games and scored only 12 points, perhaps the great est waste of yardage in recent terbacks played in the Kansas tie The Irish fumbled punts, had kicks blocked, and failed to kick on fourth down In midfield. They have passed in their own territory with the score only 70 against thon. They have passed on first down islde the opponents 10-yard llno. They have sent plays into tho center of tho limo line when the opposition has bee noutcharg- Ing their linemen. These are a few of their many mistakes.
 Strangely enough, there Is a mysterious complexion to this No- tre Dlmo team which has Coach Hunk Anderson and his assistants baffled. In practice the players block hard, tackle viciously, and function like winners.
 But once on the field they fold up. They showed spark or two of their practice form against Pittsburgh, but tho rough and tough Panthcrs famed 1t out be- ton Is that the schedule was too the formative stage, and that they lost their balance in the Kansns game and haven't had broathor to reoovor 1t.
 Look It Over While Notre Dame's legion of unofficial alumni yelp for Ander- son's scalp and take the situation tragically, they study the situation more calmly Gt South Bend In en effort to build back up from tho bottom. Notre Dame students, loyal sup | porters, and even those In m of- ficlal capacity, have virtually re- ccnciled themselves to a disastrous season. Some of the South Bend townsmon, and few Notrc Dame alumni, including some cx-football men, are welcoming a relief from the steady run of victories which will give Notre Dame chance to show that 1t can lose as well as win.
 Notre Dame has Navy, Purdue, Northwestern, Southern California and Army left on It's schedule and will beb the underdog in at least three of those games, and no bet ter than an oven choice in the other two.
