1885 TRAVELLERS NICHE IN
 GRID VALHALLA
NOtre Dame Last Minute Rallies to Live in
 Sports History
By HENRY SUPER United Press Staff Correspondent

 New York (UP)-If they are re- membered for nothing else, the Notre Dame football team of 1885 will go down in history as one of the greatest last-minute ground gathers of all time.
 Long after this years All-Amer- icas and unbeaten teams have been forgotten, football fans still will re- call the great rallies which the Irish made when the cards seemed to be stacked against them. &
 They gained the nickname of a last-quarter eleven against Ohio State and, proving that the name wasn't misplaced, carried it out a. gainst Northwestern and Army.
 The figures on these games re- veal just how much punch the Irish of 1935 packed into their at- tack as they began to battle two foes-their opponents and the clock.
 At Peak Against Ohio State.
 One of the greatest last-ditch fights in history was staged in the Ohio State game-a battle which is revealed as even more remarkable when the figures are studied.
 Notre Dame trailed, l3-0, going into the final quarter. For three periods they had gained only 85 yards both by passing and rushing. Then they made fight which pro- duced three touchdowns mad gained 195 yards in IS minutes.
 Their first touchdown came in the early part of the quarter after 14-yard marsh. On another drive, they went 53 1-2 yards to the State 2-foot line only to lose the ball on tumble.
 Then, with only two minutes to play, the Irish smashed 79 yards and 49 yards with touchdowns, which won the game.
 Gained 2SO Yards.
 In those two minutes, Notre Dame brought its total yardage gained for the entire game to 28O -155 better than Ohio State. While doing that, Notre Dame so complete ly shackled the opposition backs that Ohio State only was able to make eight yards by rushing and none by passing in the last two quarters.
 A week later, Notre Dame again staged last-minute rush, but it failed and the team lost 14-7 to Northwestern. Even SO, the South Bend boys lived up to their reputa- ton.
 In that game, Northwestern made 165 yards and Notre Dame 157. More than half of the Notre Dame total came in the last quar- ter when, on marches of 81 yards and II yards with only seven min utes to play, they twice hammered on the touchdown gates only to lose possession on the 2-yard line by a pass interception and again on the % on downs.
 The next week, against Army, the Irish again came from behind, this time to score dramatic 6-6 tie, which left 80,000 spectators in Yankee Stadium gasping.
 For two periods, an underdog Army team held the highly-rated Irish to mere 52 yards both on the ground and in the air. In the last half. Notre Game rolled up 198 yards, of which 84 came in the last two minutes of play on touchdown march which tied the score.
 Like Ohio State, Army was stop- ped in the last half, making only 83 yards on the ground and none through the air.

MUSTANGS WILL BE 8 TO 5 ON NEW YEARS DAY
s. M. U. Has Much Better Record Than Indians
 of West Coast

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, Dec. 3-CUP)-South- ern Methodist will have an oppor- tunity to write a new page in Rose Bowl history when it meets Stan- ford, New Years day.
 The aerial-minded mustangs, the first southwestern eleven to be in- vited west, can rocket the least" into the lead if they defeat the men from Palo Alto.
 The series is even at eight victor ies for the west, eight for the east and three ties. An s. M. U. triumph would put the eastern representa- tives ahead for the first time since 1901, when Michigan defeated Stanford, 49-0, in the first Rose Bowl game.
 Victory also would mark the third straight eastern triumph-a string never before rolled up by either sec- tion.
 Not So Good
 Stanford, with the worst record of any team that has played in the bowl, will be on the spot insofar as upholding the prestige of the Pa cific coast in the Pasadena clash is concerned. The Indians started the series with 8 loss and won only once in six appearances. That was in 1928, when Pittsburgh fell. In 1927 they played a 7-7 tie with Ala bama. They lost to Notre Dame, 27-10, in 1925.
 In 1884 the Red teams husky sophomores went into the bowl heavily favored over Columbia but lost, TO. This year Alabama s crimson tide" buried Messrs. Gray son, Alustiza, Hamilton and the rest under barrage of passes to win 29-13.
 Early odds on the game in New York today made the Mustangs slight favorites to give Stanford its third straight licking in the huge Pasadena stadium. Indications were that s. M. U. would be at least an 8-5 favorite at game time.
 The Mustangs will be the first newcomers to the bowl since Colum- bia went west to begin the string which enabled Alabama to dead lock the series this year.
 Dozen Victories?
 Behind them stands the greatest winning streak of the 1885 cam paign-11 straight victories. And it's almost certain s. M. U. will have an even dozen, for the Mustangs close their season this week against 8 comparatively weak Texas A. and M. eleven.
 Rated of the records, s. M U. is the logical choice to win. In Il games, it rolled up 264 points to g for the opposition. Only opponents to score were Washington U., Sim mons and Texas Christian.
 Stanford, in eight games, scored only IA points against 13 for its op- ponents. Three of the Indians games were on field goals, two of them-Santa Clara and Southern California-by the slender margin of three points. The other, Wash ington, was won, 60, on two kicks by Jim Monk" Moscrip.

RAGING HOUNDS RANK HIGH AS
 ENGLISH SPORT
Masses Find Dog Races Cheaper Than Horses
 to Follow
BY sANDoR S. KLEIN

United Press Staff Correspondent
 London U.P) Horse-racing the traditional sport of kings, is finding its reign threatened by packs of little quadrupeds.
 The strong grip which grey- hound racing has taken on the British masses is causing horse- runners to wonder if they didn't underestimate the popularity of this young interloper which they had first looked upon as only a five minutes wonder. Greyhound racing, it seems, is here to stay.
 Dog tracks are springing up over the country. There are at least 100 tracks in operation, remark able growth considering that the sport first was introduced in Man. chester in 1926.
 Proponents of oog-racing say that it is truly the sport of the masses and not confined, as is horse-racing, to the middle, upper middle and upper classes. Usually the races are held at night and so the clerk and clerks apprentices have an opportunity to indulge in the trhill of speeding animals. The admittance fee is also far cheaper than for horse-race and those who have the gambling urge can bet as little as a shilling.
 Breeding of greyhounds, too, has become a comparatively big industry. The breeders have even tried to build up tradition about the dogs. They point out that for hundreds of years greyhounds have had more attention paid to their welfare than any other breed.
 Originally, most of the dogs were of Irish breed. But breeders found it was possible to produce a more desirable racer by out breeding. Today it is the general I'll leto breed racers for domestic tracks from an Irish sire and an English dam, or vice versa.
 The breeders point out that English dogs have for centuries been bred for stamina, while Irish dogs were bred for speed. A com- bination of both tends to give an ideal type of dog for track racing.
 Big stake races named after such tradition-laden horse compe- titions as the Derby, the St. Leger and the Grand National are held annually. So far the biggest prize money carried for any race is 1000 pounds (about $5,00O but bigger stakes are predicted in the near future.
 At present, a man of modest means may possess a stable" It is possible to buy racing dogs for as little as a guinea (about $5.25) and some of the better ones are up for sale for about 10 guineas. The cost of keeping dog attached to a track during the close season is at an average of II shillings week (about $2.75).

passes and they've won with power. They've run in front and come from behind. And they've won on dry fast fields, and wet, treacherous ones. And they have licked the toughest sort of teams. You can, but shouldn't ask for more.
 Powerful
 Ohio State is my No. 2 team. The only time I saw the Buckeyes was when Notre Dame came rising out of the dusk to take them in whit must have been the durndest rally of all time, but even in defeat the men of Columbus made you feel their power. Princeton gets the No. 3 slot, with S.M.U. next in line Behind this group, in the order named, come T.C.U., L.S.U, Stan- ford, Duke, and Fordham.
 Now you pick yours and mail 1t to me and let me howl.

In another pathetic match, which the pinboys thoroughly enjoyed since they had such little setting up to do, the Jacks donated two games to the Spades.
 The Spades all checked in with two, four and fivev boxes continu- ously. Their pinboy almost fell asleep. The Jacks were hitting worse than the Spades. Their pin- boys did fall asleep and he was not even missed.
 The match reached the lethargic stage in the final game. The Deuces featuring Marcella's Il, rolled mere 268 which was two pins more than the Jacks could accumulate.
 Immediately after the game, Capt Acusta released Palm and Genovese. After checking up on his own scores, however, Acusta reinStated Palm and Genovese and fired him. self.
 The Aces upheld the honor of the league with their fine display of firSt-claSs pinning. They punched out two game victory over Gemino's Jokers and vaulted into a second place tie with the Jacks. Kelly continued his fast pace and aided materially in the demoralization of the Jckers which reached the peak in the last game when zello and Gemino rolled un- der 80.
 Undoubtedly, the presence of the Aces in the Poker league is the one thing that raises the standard of this league above that of an or- dinary bowling league.

Poker Pin Patter
Standing

The Deuces were not bowling. the Aces last week, so naturally they were victorious and maintained their league leadership.
 The Deuces were way off form and hit below their average. Their alleged opponents, the Diamonds, never had any form, so Stances gang backed into three game vic- tory.
 The only star in this match was Nick Laurie. who was not bowling but keeping score for the Diamonds. How he grimly stuck with the Dia- monds is feat well worth re- cording.
