 LAST HURDLE
 OF GREAT TEAM
ROckne Recalled By Grid Work of l938 Squad;
 Minnesota Fair
By STEVE SNYDER Limited Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff COrrespondent)
 Chicago, Nov. 22.-(UP)-Notre Dame trained its long-range guns today on Southern California, lone remaining hurdle on the road to its first undefeated season since the days of Knute Rockne.
 On Dec. 3, the Irish face their last obstac1e at Los Angeles. South ern California hasn't the speed of Carnegie Tech, nor the power of Minnesota,s Big Ten champions, but it is almost certain to furnish stiff opposition for team battered on succeeding Saturdays by the Goph- CTS and Northwestern.
 Notre Danes eighth victim was its most stubborn. Northwestern, which finished fourth in the Big Ten, outcharged and outfought the Irish and led ' to 6, until midway through the third period. The Wild cat was dangerous even after Bill Hofer's place kick put the Irish in front, to T.
 As usual, it was a long run that started Notre Danes opponent downhill. Hofer's 65 yard run with an intercepted pass scored the Irish touchdown in the second period. It was an unexpected break in a game being dominated by Northwestern. Hofer Snared the pass, but his touchdown was made possible by blockers who sprang up all along his route. Hofer's field goal to clinch it was like a hash-back to the climactic afternoons decade ago when bald-headed little man strode before the Notre Dame bench.
 Elmer Layden has, more and more this season, emulated his old coach, and today he wore the Rockne shoes with distinction. In South Bend and wherever football is play ed Rockne will never be forgotten, but if Layden's boys win a week from Saturday there will be new idol on the Notre Dame campus.
 The Northwestern victory was Notre Danes third over Big Ten teams. Illinois, Minnesota and Northwestern fell in that order. Min nesota was hammered worst of all, 19 to 0, but the Gophers came back last week to win the conference championship from Wisconsin, 21 to o.
 This was totally unexpected. Lacking speed and great runner, the Gophers had keyed themselves for their peak achievement of the year and before the first period was over Wisconsin's hopes for its first title since 1912 were blacked out.
 Ohio State had a chance to tie Minnesota, but Michigan, beaten by Minnesota and tied by Northwest ern; ended that by whipping the Bucks, 18 to 0. Michigan thus ended in a second place tie with Purdue, which retained the old caken bucket by defeating Indiana.
 Northwestern finished fourth, Ohio State and Wisconsin tied for fifth, Illinois was seventh, Iowa eighth, Indiana ninth and Chicago last.
 It was the second straight season the Big Ten failed to produce a great team, but Notre Danes re- surgence to the heights gave mid- west fans plenty to boast of.

HOCKEY RULE CHANGE

New Haven, Nov. 22-(UP)-In- ternational-American Hockey league president Maurice Podolof said to- day league members would meet within the next two weeks to con- slider changing the rules so as to allow for acceptance a goal scored as the gong ends the period or game.
 Regulations now provide that even if the puck is in the air when the gong sounds, the play is over, re- gardless of whether it lands in the net.
 A dispute arose last year between Cleveland and Springfield over a goal made by Cleveland as the game ended. Cleveland lost the contest on a ruling that the play was not completed within the time limit.

HoIihan's Noise Makers Lead I-C Bowling Loop

J. Holihan's Noisemakers coasted right past J. Kenney's whirlwinds into first place when they took ad- vantage of Nash's two-man team to take three. games and the former leaders dropping two out of three to F. Holihan's Hustlers. Bill Egan still claims he's the best bowler in the league and proved it to the boys when he went to town on the sec ond game and knocked of 157 pins, setting a mark for the boys to shoot at. J.

"8EAU88 ''- GloriWng
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Stan Writer

These days, the majority of wo- men who have regular yearly. va cations devote at least part of the annual holiday to complete relaxa- tion, exercise and eating food that builds health and beauty.
 There seems to be less and less tendency toward scurrying around from here and there and arriving home feeling less physically fit than when one left. Vacations are just as much fun as they ever were but they are more carefully planned with an eye toward health as well as amusement and change of scen- cry.
 In fact, good many business women go to so-called health farms for two weeks of rest and to give frayed nerves a chance to relax completely. Farms of this type are scattered all over the country, and if you want vacation that actually will make you look and feel years younger, you probably can find one to suit your individual needs, not to mention your pocketbook.
 One health farm situated on a hill overlooking Lake George in the Adirondack mountains, makes a game of losing weight. You get the things you like to eat-only you get smaller portions of them than you prObObly have henn eatinp voII orc encouraged to take your exercise in riding, swimming, hiking up and down mountain trails, fishing, can- oe1ng and so on rather than in hours and hours of indoor reducing exercises. You can have corrective exercises if you need them. but the experts in charge would rather have you practice your favorite sport or learn a new one.
 A week at a health farm where everything is put on such a sen- sible basis ought to be, beneficial to women who want to gain a few pounds or simply rest and play, neither gaining or losing, as to one who is overweight. A regular sched- ule, with the same number of hours set aside for sleeping each night and meals served at the same time every day, will fill out the holidays of a too-thin girl. And will elirni- nate weary lines around mouth and eyes, too.

STYLE CHATS

Paris, (UP)-Declaring her in- tention of remaining "very Chanel" hence devoid of showy frivolities, the arch personality of the fashion world has demonstrated again her sense of beauty and good taste iii the presentation of spring and sum- mer models.
 No one but Chanel would dare to sponsor full length, blousing sleeves, tight at the cuff, at a time when elbow-length sleeves even on coats and furs, were the rage.
 The diminutive, vivacious auto crat of style emphasized her ideas on clothes by appearing in a bright red, simple blouse with long, puffed sleeves; a short. close-fitting black skirt with slanting hip-pockets (Chanel loves to lean nonchalantly against a wall, her hands in those pockets, and a cigaret in her mouthO; neat cluster of flowers at the waist, and heavy lei of white beads at the neck.
 It wasn't surprising, then, when she showed a draped and close-fitting black dinner gown, tioor-length, with those same slant ing hip-pockets. The short bodice and black lace bolero, which be- came two stiffened "angel wings" behind, leaving the back very decol- lete, were examples of other pet Chanel ideas: black and white for sophisticated evening wear, and short bolero jackets.
 Tn fact. Chanel employs two themes for evening: the long, slim gown in heavy crepe or silk jersey, draped like an East Indian sari; and the tiny -bodiced bouffant skirt of sheer organza or mousseline, often combined with satin or printed silk underSkirt of contrasting color Low cut bosoms and dropped shoulders lend an 18th century air of coquetry. romance and youth. When Chanel shows bouf- fant model in rose or sky-blue net, the skirt spangled with glittering stars, a veil of the same material worn in pseudo-meekness over the head, thee fleet is like an Fl Greco madonna - and enough to bring spontaneous applause from room full of hardened buyers.
 Daytime ensembles, if not quite SO ethereal have the same lightness about them. The bolero and the short jacket with flaring peplum are combined with close-fitting or pleated skirts. Striped jerseys are fayorites, worn with one-color jack cts or redingotes.

so THE OLD FOGIES DO NOT
 APPROVE?

From the northwest a reader writes that her 12 year old daugh- ter is subject to g. condition Ono matter what) which renders gen. eral anesthesia too hazardous. The girl has infected tonsils and sev- eral physicians have advised that the. tonsils should be removed However, each of the physicians has deplored the situation and de- clined to recommend the removal of the onsils, fearing the effects of general anesthesia.
 Pretty dumb medical service, I'm telling the world.
 Finally the mother heard about newfangled method by which ton sils are removed without the risk of a general anesthetic and without the necessity of entering hospital. By dint of research in the public prints she learned that the new fangled method is called diathermy eXtirpation or electric-coagulation. With this information the mother went back to two of the physicians who had urged removal of the ton sils and warned against the serious risk involved.
 At first the two docs just couldn't t comprehend what the lady was driving at. Sounded like a pipe dream to them. They both inti- mated it sounded that way. They dismissed the importunate client with the assurance that nothing can be done about it although it would indeed be blessing if the infected tonsils could be removed without the great risk general anesthesia and a major operation would entail.
 Now the mother writes to me. l am sorry but know of no physician in her community who is qualified to extirpate tonsils with diathermy. I can only tell her that I'd travel a thousand miles to one who can do so rather than submit to the un- necessary risk, disqualification, dis comfort and interference with eat ing that uniformly attend surgical tonsillectomy, if my tonsils had to be removed.
 Diathermy extirpation of the ton sils is now accepted" even by the Pooh Bah of the A. M. A. who railed against it a few years ago-chief1y I imagine. because I had urged it on the public before the Pooh-Bah learned about it. When you meet |, doctor or a specialist who says the
