night.
There was no doubt in the
minds of the 10000 fans who Wit
messed today's battle that Coach
Frank Leahy'S boys were by far
the classiest eleven seen in many
a-moon.- but neither was there
any doubt that the struggle put
up by the crew of fighting Scots
made for one of the grandest
games ever played here
There was no power in Tech S
offensive play, but defensively the
Skibos fought their hearts out.
The material-lacking Scots put
up a gallant stand and, in the sec
ond period, after reaching the
Notre Dame 10 on a runback Of
an intercepted pass, missed
touchdown when frankie Ramsay
dropped a pass in the end zone.
II was all TO no avail. however,
for the South Bend team that has
now won four straight victories
amply proved il is one OF the lead
ing contenderS for national cham
piOnship honors.
Notre Dame, after a 75.yard
drive in which Angy Bertilli un-
limbered his pitching arm with
great effectiveness, made its first
tally In the first quarter. The sec
ond touchdown was scored I'm the
fourth quarter on a 52-yard drive.
Warner carried it over from the
one and kicked the extra point.
In between the touchdowns the
Irish picked up two points when
Tech. after making a brilliant goal
line stand that checked Notre
Dame on the 1-yard line, was
nicked for a safety as Jack Fritz,
under orders TO run the ball-out,
was tackled before he could reach
the playing field. The fact that it
poured rain almost from beginning
to end of the game, apparently did
not help the Irish 10 run up large
score, as had been expected before

All Ohio points were tailed In
the first half when 1t collected
nine first downs. The Buckeyes
completed three OF six passes, one
for a touchdown They were in
complete command OF the situation
at all times.
But in the second half, II was a
different story.
Brown made few substitutions
in the line and three of the four
backs played most Of the game.
In the last half these same men
who were World-beaters in the
early minutes made one first down
rushing and one on a penalty.
They threw one pass and this was
intercepted.

From then on it was the

game wide open. Going into the

brought it back 10 yards TO the

first play, the old statue of liberty

The centuries-old belief that
yawning is usually caused by fatigue
has been virtually upset by a study
made in the churches of Nashville,
Tenn, the Southern Society for
Philosophy and Psychology was told
today at onvention in the Ward
man Park Hotel
DR.. Joe E. Moore. of George Pea
body College, Nashville, explained
how he had sent delegations OF
graduate students to churches to
observe all types of the ancient no
hum.s Each student was intensively
trained in simulated yawns. and sat
among the congregations during the
services opening his mouth at irreg-
ular intervals.
It was discovered that the morning
church group responded with 10 real
yawns for each IS simulated yawns,
while "the evening church service
failed to produce the marked result
We had been led to anticipate, be-
cause each 20 simula ted yawns only
brought forth IL real responses"
Four Different Denominations.
Maybe those who came to the
evening church service are little in
fluenced by a yawn when things Of
the spirit are set before them" DR..
Moore conjectured.
-Four different denominations
were studied for fear we might get
a particular minister whose sermon
would produce an unusually larger
number of yawns." he told the large
group of scientists assembled in the
Adams room. He said science had
never established any relationship of
yawning with tiredness. although
observations were certainly begun as
early as 1855, when, he said,
monument was erected to the
memory of James Cooper, with the
record that he was a gentleman
remarkable for his loud yawning
during the time of divine service"
Yawns apparently are caused
either by visual or auditory stimuli,

he said. He conducted silent tests
by showing motion pictures of a
girl gaping, and blind tests by
playing a phonograph record of his
own yawns. Considerable difficulty
was encountered in the latter ex-
pertinent when students acting as
subjects mistook his noise for the
roar of wild beast, he said.
Self Checkers Warned.
In another study, DR.. j. H. Elder,
of the University of Virginia, issued
a warning to people who pride them
selves on being able to awaken at a
certain hour without alarm clocks.
He said his tests showed that they
lose much benefit from sleep. They
squirm and wriggle during the entire
hour before the time they set to wake
themselves, the matter apparently
weighing heavily on their subcon-
scious minds. Men depending on
the iangle of a bell sleep like babes.
DR.. Elder said his experiments
we're conducted with undergraduates
at the university and his results may
be slightly unreliable because they
got pretty bored" with the expert
ment.
