K.RICE STRATEGY TO II Hoosiers Carry Ball To 8 Yard Line and Complete Forward Pass To Turn Back Middies. By ALAN J.

GOULD Associated Press Sports Writer. Soldier Field, Chicago. Oct. 13. (P)i The greatest gridiron spectacle American football has ever known furnished the background for.

Notre Dame's comeback today and a 7 to 0 triumph over the battered forces of the United States Naval academy. Before a record shattering crowd unofficially estimated at 122,000, surpassing any outpouring that this historic field or any other has ever handled for football, the Green-jerseyed warriors of Knute Rockne seized a "break" late in the third quarter and scored the only touchdown of the game early In the final period on a forward pass. A poor punt from the toe of Big "Whitey" Lloyd, Navy back, which slanted off. at a queer angle and traveled only seven yards, gave Nptre Dame the ball on the Mid- die 28-yard, stripe. The flashy with Jack Hoosler backfleld.

Chevlgny and John Niemiec doing the heavy work, aided by "Billy" Pew, opened Up the big charge. The short interval at quarter gave an opportunity for Rockne A A 1. to employ some strategy which he did by sending in Colerick to re place Collins at left end. The Navy suspected this meant a passing threat and was thrown off guard perhaps as Chevlgny and Niemiec hit the line, bucking their way to the eight-yard mark. Expecting another thrust at the I line, the Navy massed Us defense 1 in a desperate stand.

Niemiec dropped back and threw a wide. slanting pass to Colerick, who caught the ball as he stepped over the line, Carldeo, who had replaced Brady at quarterback in directing the successful drive, kicked the goal. Navy, which exhibited nothing but a gallant defense for the first three Quarters of the game, aroused Uself to fighting pitch after the Hoosiers had rcored. For the rest of the grame. the Middies launched three successive' drives Into Notre Dame territory, penetrating once to the six-yard line, only to lose the ball on downs.

Joe Clifton, the paducah plung er, counted on as a big Naw Dan-carrier threat, played less than three minutes of the onen. ing period and Harold Cas. tree and "Whitey" Lloyd were the stars In the final quarter thrusts.

JlThe wrestling card of the American Legion for this week finds Jack Humberto, 193 pound grap-pler from Texas, and Mike Polo. 190 pound mat artist, of Boston, meeting in- a two best in three fall match at the Daviess county armory in what is expected to be one of the best matches to be staged on the local mat since wrestling was revived in Owens jboro. The match will be held lion day night.

These two wrestlers have met twice on the mat in this section within the past two months each having a victory to their credit, however, Polo has only a one fall victory and not a regulation tri umph as Humberto has over the Greek, but when they wrestled again on the Central City card Polo won the first fall in one hour and fifty-one minutes, and was un able to win the second and decid ing fall within the two hour time limit. Therefore the victory was awarded to polo on the basis of the one fall, but not in the terms of a regulation triumph. Good crowds have been in- at tendance at all matches this sea son and an even greater crowd is expected to ee the match Mon day night, judging from the rivalry which had existed between these two mat performers since they have been appearing before local crowds. Polo will have a strong following from Muhlenberg county, where he has won much praise as a good clean wrestler. Humber to will rule the favorite among lo cal fans.

J. B. Hedges, of Owensboro, and Dick Mitchell, of Columbus, Ohio, will meet in a two best in three fall affair with -a one hour time limit, as the preliminary contest The preliminary match will start at 8.15 o'clock. Harvard Easily Wins Over North Carolina 20 to 0 Cambridge, Oct. 13 UP) Had Alladin's Jamp been available for the University of North.

Carolina football team during its game with Harvard here today, it would have rubbed and wished for the elimination of the second period, an Interval that provided Harvard with twenty points and a victory. For thre eriods the vistitors lived up to their name of "The Tar Heels'" but Harvard crowded all its offensve power Into on quarter and demoralized the. defense of the southerners. Only once did North Carolina get within striking distance of the Harvard goal line. Except for the second period the game was bitterly fought, with both sides punting frequently.

U. of Louisville Loses To Detroit Score 46-0 Detroit, Oct. 13 VP) Lacking a punch o-n the offense and failing to stop opponent drives when they were close to the goal line, the University of Looisville lost to the University of Detroit 48 to 0 here today. The Cardinals were too light to withstand the drives of the heavy Detroit eleven and were beaten back repeatedly when they tiled to gain. Louisville's attempt to score by a barrage of passes in the last period failed and it was an intercepted Cardinal pass that gave the winners their last score just before the final sun.

AGAIN Ml Three Touchdowns, Oelze rapidly on tne punting route, and on the first play following Wilson's punt to Hickman, Arnold fumbled the ball and Jean ran the thirty yards for. his third touchdown of the game. John Medley failed -at the etxra point try from placement kick. Arnold Gets Loose With the Red Devils leading 19 to 0, Arnold, fleet halfback of the Golden Tide and strongest player on the entire squad when it came to gaining ground, broke loose around fight end on a sweeping end run, eluding the front wall defense and out running the would be tacklers from the Owensboro backfleld and raced down the field for a fifty-five yard touchdown, which was'the first that had been scored against the Red Devils and the second against a team, coached by Coach Bevarly within the past three years. Hickman failed to make good the try for extra point.

The 'remainder "of the, second quarter, was played on about equal terms, with neither team threaten ing to score. The half ended 19 to 6 in favor of the Red Devils with the total yardage gained by the Red Devils from the line of scrimmage, totaling" 121 yards against ninety-nine gained for Central City. Jean Forced To Rest Jack Jean was removed from the game shortly before the second quarter ended and when the intermission period -was over he- was unable to go onto the field because of suffering from, being too hot. He remained in the dressing room for about half of the third quarter and then returned to the game. The third period found both teams playing on about the same basis.

Oelze also made good the kick for the extra point. The fourth quarter was played mostly in the center of the gridiron with neither team showing much strength due chiefly to being almost in the state of exhaustion. The ball exchanged hands grequent ly in the last period of the game, both teams punting on most of the third downs. The ball was on Central City's twenty yard line at the finish.

PRESSING 320 FREDEKICA Lexington, Oct. 13 JP) For the first time since their football relations were started, the University of Kentucky Wildcats turned back the attack of the Washington and Lee Generals on Stoll Field today, coming out of the cmtest victors by a score of 6 ot 0. Straight football predominated throughout the game and straight football no fancy plays, brought the winning touchdown. That was early in the second half when Kentucky, gaining possession of the ball through a fumble by Eberhardt, started an inspired march down the field that, never ended until Gilb playing in his regular berth at quarter, drove through a hole in the Washington and Lee line for the touchdown. To little' At Portwood, however, went a lot of the credit for the score.

It was he who took the ball In four successive plunges against the Blue line of the visitors to place it in a threatening position, two yards from the line. The Wildcats looked good today, playing an almost airtight defensive game and showing speed and power in attack. The big Kentucky line, whose inexperience was a matter of apprehension before today's game, stood up well against the generals drive. Only o-nce during the game was tht aerial route used for any sustained time and that was during the few minutes before the final whistle when Washington and Lee tried four successive long passes in. a desperate attempt to tie the score.

The Wildcats were there to knock down the ball and the attack failed. The lineup: W. and It Pos. Kentucky Sproul Trieber Hawkins LT.

Oct. 13 () The fighting football Cavaliers of the University of Virginia held proud Princeton to a ecoreiess tie before an astonished crowd of some 12,000 in Palmer stadium, this afternoon. Battling bravely, checking the Tigers' spring again and again when it seemed that Princeton was sure to score, this Eal'ant hand of boys from "Ole Virglnny" gained a ereat moral vlctoyr in one of the biggest upsets of the dope the young season has yet seen. Never before in seven games spread out over a period of 38 years had Virginia been able to get as good as an even break with Princeton before, and before the game it had been generally conceded even by the most conservative of critics that Princeton would win by at least a couple of touch downs.
