BY HARRY CRIMSON NEA Service Shorts Editor


 Evanston, Aug. 24-Elmer Layden, the world champion worrier, has started earlier than usual. On top of a suicidal Notre Dame schedule !. Purdue, Georgia Tech, Southern Methodist, Navy in Cleve- land, Carnegie Tech in Pittsburgh, Army, Iowa and Iowa City, North western and Southern California on { successive Saturdays, the people made South Bends famous Thin Man their choice to coach the Col lege All-Stars against the champion New York professional Giants at Soldiers Field, Chicago, Aug. 30.
 Layden looks over the all-star squad at Dyche Stadium here |. 28 of the 69 captains of their re- Spective varsities a star-stud- ded outfit, including such big rah rah names as Davey O'Brien, Mar shall Goldberg, Howie Weiss, Bob Macleod and Bill Osmanski.
 But it is the nnemen who catch Layden's eye, especially the tackles, the 240-pound I. B. Hale of Texas Christian and the six-foot four-inch Don Siegel of Michigan.
 T could use those two boys at school this fall," remarks the Thin Man, whose biggest headache is the loss of six of his seven first string linemen Earl Brown, Ed Beinor, Capt. Jam McGoldrick, Ed Longhi, Augie Bossu and Paul Kell.
 KELLY BACK FOR MORE Only Captain-elect Johnny Kelly of the 1938's first-flight Irish for wards remains.
 But we still have Johnny O'Brien to substitute for Johnny Kelly" beams Layden. "Who asked what became of the Irish of Notre Dame?"
 There are the reserves of last autumn, of course, Bud Kerr, George Rassas and Johnny O'Brien, ends; Tom Gallagher and Tad Harvey, tackles; Joe DeFranco, Johnny Gu banich, Pete Kelly and Chuck Riff file, guards, and Johnny Mcintyre and Al Mooney, cencers and several Sophomores are coming along, but team can't lose six of seven line men who proved best under fire and be quite the same.
 New names to be watched at Notre Dame are Petchell, Paul Lillis, Jim Brutz, Johnny Mad- dock, Hercules Bereolis, Ed Sul- livan, Bob Margrave, Steve Be- garus, Bernie Crimmins, Jim Ford and Cliff Brosey.
 Petchell is an end from Min- nesota, Lillie 8 tackle from New Rochelle, N. Y., Brutz tackle from Ohio, Maddock a guard from California, Bereolis a guard from Hammond, Ind, Sullivan 8 guard from New York, and brother of Joe, who died as captain elect several years ago, Hargrave a guard from Evansville, Ind, Be- garus a back from South Bend, Crimmins a back from Louisville, Ford a center, and Brosey a tackle. NEW LOW IN WEIGHT
 Layden will have use for these oOkAlOAAlO4C
 Note Dame has only 20 days to get ready for Purdue and its 25 lettermen. Then, following en- agreements with Georgia Tech, Southern Methodist and Navy, comes a corking Carnegie Tech ar- ray that was great as young team year ago.
 Army always is tough for Notre Dame and Iowa has Nile Kinnick and an ambitious new coach, Dr. Eddie Anderson.
 Bill DeCorrevont is only one of a fine band of sophomores aug menting a well balanced North westernr aggregation.
 Southern California comes to South Bend with Ambling Amby Schindler all in one piece and Granny Lansdell and all the rest.
 Elmer Layden weighs 160 at the start of season .. 145 at its close, but he's likely to establish a new low by Nov. 25.
