New York, Oct. 21--CUP)-Mon-
days grid-iFonies: Notre Dame used
81 players in scoring 81 points
against Carnegie Tech and the
nation is wondering who the six
culprits are who couldn't get their
one point -. apparently the Irish
squad is so good that Elmer Lay
den could take vacation and let
Pat O'Brien, with or without make
up, coach for the rest of the season.
Jock Sutherland must have
laughed and the alumni wept as
Pittsburgh's pure as snow" team
was whaled by Fordham in a snow
storm =. the Magicians' uion has
demanded that Clark Sliaughnessy
take out a card and pay dues for
what he has done with d Stanford
team that battled brilliant GOO in
the Pacific Coast Conference last
year -. The Indians successive VIC
tories over Santa Clara and Wash
ington State indicates they'll have
something to say about the land
scape gardening in the Rose Bowl,
come Jan. 80. Ohio State did
everything a great football team
should do-except win-Ain the game
with Minnesota =. This is a COM
mon failing with the Buckeyes,
whose trophy room is decorated with
more moral victories than even an
elephant among the Alumni could
remember.
1t had been whispered that Ala
bama was good thing" to lick
Tennessee, but Johnny Butler
spoiled this whispering campaign
with one Of his own 49,. Cornell
looked so good in beating Syracuse
that Coach Carl Snavely was said
to have smiled twice during the
game, thus using up his smile al
lotment for the entire season
All Snavely has left for between
now and the end of November is
one chuckle.

Georgia must have left Athens in
a hurry for New York and the Col
umbia game because the Bulldogs
forgot to bring along quarterback
-. They had some fellows they
called quarterbacks, all right but
none Of the $4,000 spectators who
saw Columbia win, 10 to 10, was
fooled 49,. Georgia had the talent to
Lick the outmanned New Workers
but wasted it like Dortohy Lamour
in a Raccoon coat -. a successful
defense of the southeastern confer
ence title is as tough las defending
the Alamo, but the Texas Aggies are
likely to do it They knocked
off T. @. U. 81 to Z. and mighty
John Kimbrough wasn't even cali
ed on to smash for touchdown :.
The Aggies employed him as a
passer, which is like using a steam
roller to press a pair of pants.
Revenge is sweet and the Mich
igan Wolverines have q sweet tooth
-. Inundated by Illinois in the
biggest upset of the season last year,
Michigan, with Tom Harmon yield
ing honors to Bob Westfall, took
the Illinois apart to see what didn't
make them tick ;. Westfall gained
1877 more yards than all of Bob
zuppke's men put together ~. A
Crowd of $4,000 saw Yale beat Dart
mouth, which proves that loyalty is
not dead in this country =. Har-
ward and Army fought to a 6-6 tie,
thus giving lie to those critics who
prophesied that the Army and
Harvard teams of this year couldn't
score against squad of pullman
conductors playing a three-man
line.
Frank Reagan beat Princeton, As
to % in the greatest one-man show
since John Barrymore came of age
~. The Pennsylvania star who'll
duel with Harmon at Ann Arbor
next week, scored five touchdowns,
passed for another, and kicked an
extra point -. Bill De Correvont
whose light was hid under a bushel
Of press clippings last year, con-
tinued his great play Of 1910 to
spark Northwestern to a win over
WiSconSin's badgered Badgers !.
# De Correvont hadn't kept a
scrapbook he probably would have
been All-Americai by now.
