Boston College Coach Vic. tim of Alumni Dart-
 mouth Surprised

Boston, Nov. 28 CUP) - once- beaten Holy Cross, atop the New England gridiron heap, looked for- ward today to possible "bowl' glory without 8 head football coach.
 The Crusaders, coached by Eddie Anderson, who resigned last night, completed their regular schedule by walloping their traditional Jesuit hival Boston College 29-7.
 Holy Cross claim to bowl recogni- tion was based on record which included lop-sided wins over Geor-, gia, Colgate, Temple and Manhat- tan and was marred only by T-6 loss to powerful Carnegie Tech.

 Against the previously undefeat- ed Eagles, the dazzling Crusaders scored in every period and never were in danger. Captain Bill Os- manski closed his career in brilliant fashion, averaging over five yards in 24 carries.
 The veteran Gil Dobie is reported through as head coach at Boston College where his contracts runs out this year. The B. c. Alumni have clamored continuously for his re- moval since he assumed the post three years ago.
 Darthmouth's Big Green dropped their second game of the season 23- 13 to Stanford in an intersectional clash at Palo Alto, Cal. It was the final game for Captain Bob Mac- Leod of Dartmouth, 8 probable ale American selection.

 Anderson, who in the past six years compiled one of the three best football coaching records in the country, resigned last night as Coach of the Worcester Jesuit College.
 The resignation announced by Athletic Director Tom McCabe ended a week of speculation as to whether Anderson would resign presumably to accept an offer from the University of Iowa.
 McCabe, asserting shock surprise at the resignation, said that it was the first intimation he had that An derson was leaving and that the coach should have consulted" with him.
 During Anderson's six years at Holy Cross, the Crusaders won AT, lost seven and tied four. This years team lost only a 7-6 decision to Carnegie Tech.

M. STRATT0N,
 WHITE SOx STAR,
 MAY LOSE LEG.
Hunting Accident Costly; Pistol, in Holster, Cause
 of Bad Wound

Dallas, Texas, Nov. 28.-(UP)-The baseball career of Monty Stratton, mainstay of the Chicago White Sox pitching staff, was imperiled today by an accidental gunshot wound that may necesSitate amputatoin of his right leg above the knee.
 The 25-year old right handler was in serious condition in Parkland hospital. Surgeons hoped to save his leg but there seemed little likelihood that they could.
 Stratton shot himself with a pistol he was carrying in a holster while hunting rabbits on his mothers farm at Greenville yesterday. The bullet entered the outer side of the thigh, couorsed downward and back ward to the knee. Presumably, a twig caused the pistod to fire ac- cidentally.
 Dr. A. R. ThomaSson, said ampu- tation might be necessary to save Stratton's life. He said the shot had severed large artery in the back of Stratton's leg.
 Serious Apparently the wound was more serious than that which cut short the career of the St. Louis Cardinals spectacular shortstop, Charley Gel bert in 1892. Gelbert received a shotgun charge in the calf of his leg and heel and was incapacitated for months. He tried game but unsuccessful comeback after being treated by the foremost specialists in the country. The leg refused to heal completely, and with metal plate covring the expoced parts, he showed only flashes of his old bril- liancy.
 Stratton, despite arm injuries in his first two seasons with the White Sox, won Is games in 1897 and 15 again last year.
 He was born at Celeste, Texas, Oct. 12, 1913. He is six feet five inches tall and weighs 190. He broke into baseball through the North Texas semi-pro ranks and White Scouts picked him up in 1884. Early in the season he was allowed to pitch three innings for the American league club but he was too wild and was shipped back to Omaha of the Western league where he won eight and lost 10.
 He next played with St. Paul of the American Association, winning IT ad losing nine in 1885. With a bad arm he won but five and lost seven. Apparently recovered. he was given another chance with the Sox in 1887. Winning Is games and losing five, he turned in a classy 2.40 earned run average. Against his Is victories last season, he lost nine. He was out part of the 1888 season with the old arm complaint.

NOTRE DAME IS
 NATIONS BEST;. T.C.U., DUKE NEXT.
Rose Bowl Scramble Con- tinues; Five Teams With
 Perfect Records
By HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports EditOr)

NOUASCU AICSS CVOEtS GuASUEI New York, Nov. 28-CUP)-The end of the road is a week away for Notre Dame and anything can hap pen this Saturday. but today the Irish of South Bend still stand astride the football world.
 Undefeated and united through a bruising schedule, Coach Elmer Lay- den and his boys go west this week for a game with Southern Califor- mia, an outfit that started the season slowly and then came along with rush that may end in the Rose Bowl.
 If Notre Dame falters in Califor- mia, two other teams are ready to step in and claim the national championship-Texas Christian, the irresistible force of the southwest, and Duke, the rock of Dixie.
 Five major teams remain un- beaten and united as the season dies, and they rank about like this 1-Notre Dame, 2-Texas Christian and Duke in tie, 3-Tennessee, and 4Oklahonna.
 Devils Came Through Notre Dame was idle over the week and so the great adven- ture of the day befell the Blue Devils whom Wallace Wade coaches at Duke. Many an eyebrow had been lifted at Dukes none too strenuous schedule and the word was passing around to wait until the Blue Devils caught a tough one. So they caught Pittsburgh at Durham, N. O., Satur- day and when the game was over Duke had won, T to 0, and had come through the season without having its goal line crossed.
 Nothing can happen now to spoil the perfect records of Duke and Texas Christian unless they get bowled over in one of the post season bowls. Oklahoma and Ten nessee are not so lucky. Mississippi, tough team with one of the na- tion'S great backs in Parker Hall, plays Tennessee Saturday. Okla- homa has to get by Washington State this week.
 Dartmouth, classed at mid-season among the great teams of the na- tion, ran into a hitherto indifferent Stanford club in California and woke up to find itself on the wrong end of g to 13 score. Let that be warning to Notre Dame.
 Games were scanty over the week. end but every section of the coun- try had at least one good battle, in- cluding one with fists between play CTS and rooters of Louisiana State and Tulane at Baton Rouge, La.
 Here in the east the Army rolled along on 8 third period drive that won 8, IA to ' victory over the Navy in one of the best games those am cient rivals ever played.
 Classy Win
 Texas Christian reinforced its claim to national recognition by trampling Southern Methodist at Dallas, 20 to 2, and proved again that one of the toughest jobs in football is to stop O,Brien & Co.
 Out at Saltwater, Oklahoma took to the air to gain an easy l9 to o victory over the Oklahoma Aggies. The bowl that gets Oklahoma Is go- ing to have quite football game if the competition IS good.
 The west coast had two back yard brawls in which Oregon State punched out . fourth-quarter vic- tory over Oregon. IA to 0, and Wash- ington crushed its old rival Wash- ington State, 26 to Q.
 The surprise of the day occurred in Jacksonville, Fla, where an un- der-dog Florida team rose up and smote Auburn, 9 to c.

One feature which will be to the liking of the players will be the ab- sence of the nets from the side lines. After much haggling, it has been decided to maintain the nets, but to push them back of the bleachers. In past years the nets have caused innumerable fights, when players became enmeshed within the cords, and could not move.
