SOUTH BEND, Ind, Sept. g.
Notre Dame has postgraduate stu
dents who still were in high school
when the fighting Irish last lost a
football game to a civilian team
Michigan in 1912.
Notre Danes next intercollegiate
beating is going to be hard for its
sons TO take and Coach Frank
'Leahy says they'd better lay in a
supply of soda bicarb before Sep
tember 25. That's when his re-
modelled team plays Purdue's bulg
ing Boilermakers in Notre Dame
Stadium.
Leahy, who has coached the Irish
to Al victories, three defeats and one
tie, affirms solemnly he'll consider
the season a success if Notre Dame
loses no more than three games.
With undoubted sincerity, he
mourns the graduation of Quarter
back Johnny Lujack and Tackles
George Connor and ziggie Czarob-
ski, along with 10 other monogram
winners.
You don't lose boys like those
without having to start anew,
Leahy says.
Even so. he adds, Notre Dame
hopes to have "a fairly good first
team"
Pessimistic Last Year, Too.
Leahy made a similar statement
last fall, referring to the losses from
1s46 of Jim Mello, Gerry Cowhig
George Ratterman and others, and
a subsequent suffering in quality"
The reduced quality" Irish could
win nine straight games again this
fall, although Leahy apparently has
more solid grounds for his pessim-
ism than he did last September. He
undoubtedly has a problem at the
tackles, with his first four men
graduated. And it will take time to
develop another playing coach
like Lujack. although Frank Tri-
pucka Of Bloomfield, N. j., appears
capable enough.
Tripucka got considerable expert
ence last year and actually had a
better passing average than Lu-
jack. He completed 25 of A for
wards, compared with Lujack's 81
OF 109. On the other hand, Tripucka
ended up with net loss carrying
the ball. Lujack averaged almost IL
yards try on the dozen occasions
he fooled opponents by running.
Along with Tripucka, Leahy has
Gerry Begley, Yonkers, N. Y, and
Roger Brown of Chicago, reserve
last year, and Bob Williams of Balti-
more, a sophomore of promise.
Attack May Improve.
Notre Dame actually may have
a more versatile attack than last
year, when its ground game begged
down several times.
1t still has halfbacks Terry Bren-
nan of Milwaukee, who ran back
the opening kickoff 81 yards against
Army, and Coy MCGEE of Longview,
Tex, who averaged about Al yards
a trip.
Nt has Emil Sitko of Fort Wayne,
Ind, who scored five touchdowns:
Lancaster Smith of Lebanon, KY,
who scored twice and averaged over
five yards thrust, and Larry Cou-
tire OF Chicago, rated the squads
most improved player in spring
practice.
And then there's Halfback Ernie
Zalejski of South Bend, who was
called Leahy's secret weapon" in
ls46. He had bad knee last fall
and didn't play after Leahy rated

he said.
"I expect some time early in 1949
he'll win the championship. He's
very good, and he also doesn't have
too much opposition. Bivins. to my
way of thinking, is tougher than all

The tricky 129-yard 14th hole at

to Pro Mel Shorey. Two more were

The hole Is played to a slightly
