Joseph cqhffty. In 1928 when Herbert Hoover Swept the county with a 1 majority of more than. votes there was, for once, little split ticket voting, for the entire republican ticket from the governorship down to the lesser county offices rode on the crest of the wave with majorities ranging from 4.000 to 10.000. In 1924. when what has been regarded as a normal, vote was cast, splitting took place in both parties.

The split ticket threat for the republicans is appearing in some of the rural divisions of the county while the democrats are finding it in the ord'narily heavily democratic Second and Sixth wards. Rising opposition among democratic voters to their party's county ticket caused Democratic County Chairman John CL Nelson, after a conference with former Mayor Chester R. Montgomery and other party powers last week, to order a belated but vigorous campaign opened on behalf of the nominees for county offices. Printed matter was distributed in an effort to offset the rising opposition to the county crowd for its lethargic efforts toward governmental economy. Act West Side.

At the same time west side precinct workers were called into special conferences in the party headquarters on West LaSalle avenue and told to get the disgruntled democrats under control by passing out instructions on split tickets. If the county ticket cannot be saved the democrats will fight to the last ditch to save the national and state slates. Until last week the democrats apparently suffering from a vie tory complex, could see no reason for launching any intensive cam-paigfa on behalf -of their county It seemed to them that the stage was set for a Roosevelt landslide which would carry every' thing bearing the democratic emblem along with it In their efforts to hold the heads of the county ticket above water the 'Jeffersonian, leaders have pounced upon the $1.50 tax levy limitation law purely a republican accomplishment in the recent special session of the legislature as the most raucous note of their ballyhoo, pointing out that it instituted a plank in the democratic state platform adopted last June. When the hill was pending in the legislature, however, the democrats led by their state chairman, R. Earl, Peters, made a desperate effort to kill it and every one of the -county officials now claiming It went to Indianapolis In August to join in the fight for the laws defeat.

Acting like a herd of frightened mustangs, a hand of 13 re n-el ad backfield men ploughed thro ugh and walked over a snarling bunch pi Bulldogs at will, scoring in every quarter-and showing absolutely no regard for an offense which -con tained more tricks than Houdinis trunk. To add insult to injury the Irish surged forward four times to block kicks off the toe of 5 Bob Wleland. Two of these blocked kicks were converted Into points, Alt Drake waa able to show was lot of courage. It had, the but never got an opportunity to try them out as a swarm green jersied linemen spent of the afternoon in the Bulldog backfield.

Twice, with its backs against its own goal posts, the Dea Moines club showed disregard for its superior opponents by passing. On occasions the Rambler backs were taken by surprise aqd the passes were; completed for substantial gains. Lack Brilliance, There was nothing brilliant abdutthe Notre Dame attack. In fact, it waa monotonous because of its consistency. It did not matter who took the ball an advance was certain.

Steve Ban as opened the gateway to touchdown street with a 32 yard run three minutes after i the initial kickoff and Frankie LaBorne ended pa rade with a 30 yard dash Just two minutes before the final gun. Four complete backflelds and three 'lines were drafted into 'service for the Notre Dame cause along, with a few other individuals who worked with the various combinations from time; to time. Although the scores were "but one point apart, there whs 'a slight difference between this years tilt and the 1931 slaughter. Last year Drake did not hold for downs on any occasion. Saturday the Irish were forced to punt six There 'was a great difference, in the first downs, 23 being registered last rear against eight today.

Scoring was such an easy task that individual brilliancy was out of the question. Left halfbacks, fullbacks and right halfbacks shared-alike in the scoring column but one play stood out like a boil on a wrestler's neck It occurred in the second quarter when Hunk Andersons first string backfield was in charge of scoring activities.1.
