If your doorbells are operated
by dry batteries, you may find it
difficult to get replacement bat
teries later on. A small "doorbell
transformer" connecting the door
bells to your electric system, uses
almost no ucrrent and saves bat
terry replacement as well. Mount it
securely in the position where the
batteries formerly were, connecting
two of the wires to the house cur
rent and the others to bell circuit.
If no electric outlet is close by, it
will be safer to have an electrician
make the installation.

Topping Them All

ut has weight, speed, precision
and has mastered the fundamentals
of pass defense, downheld block
ing, ball handling, tackling-every-
thing. It tops them ALL"
A great deal more will be heard
of Coach Frank Leahy in years to
come. It is our opinion that the
future will have him remembered
along with Knute Rockne as a great
Notre Dame institution.
Leahy views each game with
gloomy forebodings. His pre-game
outlook Is dark and melancholy.
When things are beginning to look
too bright for his team he begins re.
membering what Holy Cross did to
Boston College last year. He re-
members, too, that bleak day in
1885 when thrice-beaten Northwest
ern came through to whip an I'M
defeated Notre Dame team which
was on its way to a national cham
pionship.
Leahy doesn't have to remind
himself not to grow too optimistic.
His sad thoughts are for the benefit
of others who are overly cheerful
Just as we think Leahy is the coach
Of the year, so we believe Angelo
Bertelll Is the player Of the year.
Though he didn't have the oppor-
tunity to finish out the season, Ber-
tell proved himself to be one Of the
most brilliant players In Notre Dame
history.
In our opinion, Notre Dame, with
its superb line, its greater backfield
and its dazzling speed, stood out as
the best college team we've ever
seen.
