An Old Fashioned Scramble.

ON COPY PAPER, Notre Dame
hasn't Fittsburgh's all-around
power or her reserves.
But this South Bend hurly-burly
won't be played on copy paper. It
will be played upon the green turf OF
Notre Dame before the greatest crowd
that ever invaded South Bend.
Pitt has the stronger line, including
two brilliant ends i'll Souchek and
Daddio, and Pitt has more man-power
In her backfield with Goldberg. Steb-
bins, Patrick, Chickerneo and two or
three others just about as good. Again
this Notre Dame team has started on
her way uphill. 1t took real football
team to beat Minnesota and that VIC
tory will do Layden's young men a
double world of good.
You can gamble their heads will be
up and their hearts won't be down
when the Panther comes out upon
the field.
1t hardly stands to reason that any
team can beat Minnesota and Pitts
burgh on successive Saturdays.
But, as Fritz Crisler puts it-"Foot-
ball is a daffy, screwy game, which
frequently has no answer"
Anyway, Notre Dame already has
taken care of the first half of her
problem-Minnesota. And even with
the Army coming on week later,
Notre Dame will play her heart out to
beat Pitt and thereby accomplish the
years greatest football miracle-to be
tied by Illinois-beaten by Carnegie
Tech-and still whip Minnesota and
Pittsburgh on successive Saturdays.

Lynch, 6 feet 3 inches, and weighing

Lynch is very fast and gets down the

tackling. He also has blocked kicks
to his credit.

DOES LITTLE PRACTICE
Detroit's Kondraski Regular
Despite Chronic Ailment.

DETROIT.-Frank Kondraski, De-
troit guard, probably can claim a
championship as the player who has
done less practicing than any other
varsity man.
A bad knee has forced Frank to
spend most Of his afternoons under
the heat lamp instead of on the foot
ball field, but he always is ready for
the games and never has failed to
turn in a good performance.

Goodman's Steadiness Decides.

SCHUMACHER played brilliant golf
in spurts, but he couldn't match
the steady Goodman, who was 4 I'M
der par for the 81 holes. Johnny
was up after the first 10 holes and
up at the 27-hole mark. Each
carded 6 brides, but Goodman was
above par figures only twice to the
Texas Flying Dutchman's" eight
times. After the eighth hole Schu-
macher never held the lead.
Mrs. Chandler, playing steady golf
through the morning round, easily
outclassed her opponent, although she
picked up on couple of holes and
had a few IS and one 7. She finished
the first round up, then proceeded
to win six and halve two of the next
nine holes.

Challenger Alexander Alekhin,

pawn to queens fourth square, the
proper response is anything other than
the Indian defense according to the
strategic conception of the great an
alyst, Nimzowitsch.
In the twelfth match game of their
series to decide whether Euwe will
retain the world title or Alekhin shall
regain it, the latter essayed the queens
pawn opening and Euwe countered
with the Indian defense. thus dupli-
eating his play in the eighth and tenth
games of the current battle.
The defense was inadequate and
after a series of exchanges a draw
was agreed on. In the eighth and
tenth games Euwe lost decisively.
Undoubtedly Alekhin is versed
deeply In the Indian defense and
has keener insight into tactics
than Euwe.

HURT ENDS HOPES.
| OF REDSKINS SUB
Peterson, Eager for Chance
to Prove Worth, Is Out
of Exhibitions.
BY BILL DISMER. Ir.

by BILL DlSMER, Jr.
THERE is nothing condemning
in the fact that to % Of the rs
players in Washington Redskin
uniforms, the series of three
exhibition games starting tonight in
Baltimore are regarded rather lightly.
After all, there is little to'get excited
about playing the Baltimore Bluebirds,
or the Richmond Arrows next Sunday,
or the st. Louis Gunners in Charles
ton, S. c., on November IL.
But to two Of the Redskins the
games are. or were. vitality important.
Because for far in seven National
League games Rockies" Dixie Howell
and Nels Peterson-the latter the
smallest Of the Skins-have done Moth
ing but warm the bench, excluding the
final quarter of last Sundays game
in Brooklyn.
Both were convinced that, if given a
chance, they could demonstrate their
worth. Howell insisted even before
Sunday that his spiked knee was en-
tirely healed and Peterson believed that
his scat back" potentialities could
help the team. Both were told, how
ever, that league games were too i'm
portant to do any experimenting in,
but that they would receive their
trials in the exhibitions scheduled dur
ing the lay-off period from league
competition between November
and IA.

The records of Jumbo Jim Meade

slightly less enduring-five minutes of
the Penn game being the only time
they have not been on the field during
Maryland's games
And starting with the Terps' Sec
ond game of the season neither Quar-

Ralph Albarano have been removed.
Apparently Coach Frank Dobson will
need to keep them in every minute

Fate Against Peterxon.

may surprise those who were hoping
for the best, but fearing the worst.
But Peterson, the reason for this yarn,
is doomed to disappointment.
For last Sunday, the first time he
had been sent into game for three
weeks and only the second time he
had subbed this season, Peterson pulled
muscle in his leg and is laid up for
no one knows how long.
The fact that it has the painful
effect of being gashed with a knife is
nothing to Petey's grief that his long
awaited chance is to be dened. The
former West Virginia Wesleyan star
was the picture of woe coming home
on the train last Sunday night. be-
moaning the fate which had befallen
him at such an inopportune time.
According to him, life gets rather
monotonous when it consists of prac-
ticing two hours a day for one game
week, and then not getting into
that game, even though the regular
pay check comes along just the same.
There's sincerity in Petey's tone and
makes you somewhat ashamed Of some
persons you know who still think
professional football players are in the
game only for what mercenary gains
they can derive from it.
Edwards Picks Up as Kicker.
A CONTRASTING angle, as seen
= among the Redskin ranks. is the
case of the veteran Turk Edwards,
255-pound captain and tackle, now
in his sixth season with the Redskins.
Like wine, the big fellow seems to be
improving with age and is the bulwark
of the local line. making fully half
Of his teams tackles.
And his foot. which he has used to
good advantage in recent games.
simultaneously has been kicking this
observer down into the ranks of sucker
sports scribes.
For once, after three games had
been played, We publicly took Edwards
to task for his poor booting on the
kick-offs which he has handled all
year. We did not know then, as We
know now, that Turk never had done
any placement-kicking before this
season; that only because Cliff Battles.
the teams booter in that respect last
year, was in poor shape was Edwards
being used.
But since then, those kick-offs have
begun to fly, and We mean really take
off. Last Sunday the climax ap-
parently was reached when Turk
kicked one 10 yards over the goal
line, another shortly over third as
far as the last white stripe. Seems
that here's another that knows how
to put the foot into football.

need for a constitutional
amendment to legalize NRA,
President Roosevelt inform

2. Further neutrality legislation
to meet conditions created by the
Spanish civil war.
3. A deficiency appropriation for
the current fiscal year.
The president delivered his mes
sage in person, speaking from the
rostrum of the house chamber
where were assembled both house
and senate, members of his cabi-
net. distinguished visitors, diplo-
mats and plain citizens.
The need for speed in enactment
of the Spanish resolution, con-
gress realized, was only too real. AS
members sat listening to Mr.. Roose-
velt'S address reports arrived that
even at that moment a freighter
loaded with war materials for
Spain sailed from. New York.
Absent from the scene as the
president spoke were the black
robed justices of the supreme court.
