Hungarian
Athletes
Seek Aid

MELBOURNE - Eighty-three
Hungarian athletes and officials
flew out of Melbourne and the
Olympic Games recently aboard
a giant French airliner.
Empty seats in the plane bore
silent witness to the Hungarian
tragedy.
Originally the passenger list
called for 81 members of the
team but possibly forty or more
had chosen to cut their ties
with their Soviet ravaged home
land and seek freedom in Aus
tralia or the United States.
Seeking asylum were such
noted Hungarian sports figures
as famed running coach Mihaily
Igloi and four minute miller,
LaSzlo Tabori.
Other great figures in the Hun
garian sports world are expected
10 leave the group at Milan.
That's the final point of decision,
for from Milan the team moves
by train to Budapest and a fu-
ture clouded in the fog of revo-
luton and uncertainty.
Most of those who walked 81
lently to the big double decked
aircraft looked straight ahead.
Some succeeded in producing
wan smiles and waves of last
farewell. After they had boarded
the plane the crowd sang the
Hungarian national anthem.
Reliable sources among the
Hungarians themselves say that
many of the group returning are
younger people with some posi-
tion in the Hungarian Commun-
ist Party whose feelings about
the present turmoil in their ma
tive land are unclear.

Irish Face Worst Season
With II Teams Due Next

SOUTH BEND, Ind. Oct. Is
P0.-This could be the year that
Notre Dame football foes have
been awaiting.
Defeated in two Of their first
three games. the Irish meet the
Nations two top teams on the
next two Saturdays - Michigan
State and Oklahoma-and might
become the first Notre Dame
team ir history to lose four of
its first five games.
The 1856 Irish already have
the dubious distinction of be-
coming the first Notre Dame
team since 1896 to lose two of its
first three games.
The Irish fell before Purdue, a
longtime nemesis, 28-14, Satur-
day. 1t was Purdue's second tri-
umph over the Irish since 1850.
when the Boilermakers snapped
a 39-game undefeated string by
the identical 28-l4 score.
Way back in 1896, Notre Dame
lost its opener. 40, TO a team
known as Chicago p. and S. The
following game saw the Irish
drop an 1870 decision to the
University OF Chicago, but they
scrambled out a 24-0 triumph
over Albion and finished the sea-
son with a 1870 record. Notre
Danes other loss that season
was TO Purdue. 1922.
This could develop into Notre
Danes most disastrous cam
paign since 1888. when the Irish
won three, lost five and had one
tie. In 1850, after Purdue had
exploded Notre Dame supremacy
the Irish finished with a All
mark.
The 1888 season. incidentally
was the worst in Notre Dame
history.

his third season after posting
9-l-o and 1920 records the last

was inexperienced before the

"There1l be some changes

Nearly a quarter million fans

and in which weak teams seemed

A throng of 60,042 saw the
Browns Succumb to the New

for the first time since 1852 as
the once-awesone Cleveland Of
Tense could manage only 40
yards rushing and 104 passing.
And 56.281 in Detroit saw Los
Angeles provide last years cell

third victory, 24-21. The Lions
won only three all last year.
