D. Panties Too Tight, Girl Thinks II A FOOTBALL FAN. We went to the game with the girl friends, Janice and Jessie, and thoroughly enjoyed the press accounts which appeared in The Tribune after the game. Jessie was a bit too jln- quisitive and Janice, well, we will just can ner dumb. Janice, it appears, is a freshman in High school while Jessie, although she has attended football games before, seems to have learned little of Uhe technique used in the game.

At any rate we were at the game the Notre Dame-Navy game which was played yesterday afternoon at which time0 the new $750,000 Notre Dame stadium was dedicated. When we invited Janice and Jessie we thought that they were above the i average and they, really, were too dumb to even tobe in the running. The first remark that Janice made was in regard to the attire worn by the Notre Dame players. Janice, it seems, was graduated from Miss Huston's on the Hudson, a modern finishing school and she was inclined to compare the culture of Notre Dame players with the methods she learned at Miss Huston's. Bloomers, she said, should be more bagged at the knees and when she saw the silk panties worn by the Notre Dame players Instinctively recognized the difference from those used at Miss Huston's in all gymnasium classes.

Mtss Hii3tpn, it is evi-r dent, is quite a bloomer expert. After the criticism of the attire used by the Notre Dame players we settled back -in comfort to wait for the first touchdown which was entirely lost in Janice's retort after the oval had been carried; over the line. "How that Garabaldi can run." she said, as Sovoldi planted the leather behind the marker. Prom that moment on we knew that our game was finished and just as Savoldi rushed over with the second pount Janice discovered a lovely creation in brown which by her, is reputed to be the last word in hats. The hat, after we had courteously listened to the lady's description, proved to be black felt bedecked with an extremely long ostrich feather which hung gracefully over the wearer's shoulder.

When the noble Italian made his second dash for merit Janice saw a tri-colored airplane sail over the field and registered indignation when we would not apply our full attention to the heavenly quarters. We did so and lost all the' pleasure of a touchdown from point of view. The plane happened to bt oonc in red, white and a bit of; blue and for the sake of the ladies we had to be patriotic. When Savoldi carried (he third touchdown over. the line.wa: were engaged lrt an explanation of why the Notre Dame players were so frequently penalized.

To Janice this seemed supreme injustice, that the boys shouldered In green Should be retarded in their progress to the Notre Dame goal posts. Although Janice was for the Notre players throughout the game she condemned them lustily for their lack of courtesy In not permitting the visiting team to win. When the water wagon was rolled upon the field for the first time about 4 o'clock Janice criticized the local players for being too hasty with their CaaUaac aa rata Twa. Calaaia Tkrca.

BY JOHN W. STAIIR. Ti ibune Sports Fdltor. Sunk, scuttled and awash with touchdowns, It was fine to have the United States NavaKacademy team, with all its great-fighting traditions, to share the football-playing honors in the dedication of Notre Dame's new stadium, but ihe Irish turned out to be mighty stingy about sharing those particular honors. Some 50,000 persons, more than double the largest throng that ever Ujiore attended a football game or any other kind of game hereabout.

esterday saw Knute Rockne 1930 defy the jinx that, usually stalks teams in dedication games and romp off to an unexpectedly easy victory over a wonderfully game but ineffectual Middy corps! Jumpin' Joe Savoldi. getting his chance to operate in company with the first string Irish team through Larry Mullins' disability, put the first across Navy's bow early in the second quarter when he scooted around right end on a reverse play trow the 23-yardtline, barely diving over the goal lme beloi-e going out of bounds in the extreme northeast corner. Savoldi Is Big Gun. Joe was destined to be the big gun in una engagement, later conunir along with a direct hit that started a number of plates in the side of the Navy cruiser, and driving home a third touchdown early in the third period that completed the rout. The second land excursion of the Itinerant Italian from Three Oaks, followed close after his opening salute, and was the high point of a comparatively drab contest.

On the same sort of play as that which shook him loose the first time, Joe took the ball from Marty Brill on a reverse play starting from the Navy 48-yard mark, twisted away from t' tacklers, and outsprinted the rest the Middy defenders to cross the goal line this time standing up, literally with all sails set. This particular kind of play, where the backfield interferers start in one direction while the ball-carrlei beats a comparatively lonely' trail to the other side, proved Notre Dame's best ground-gainer of the day, for other backs as for Jo. Rockne did not let his boys use a great deal of variety, feeling the need of saving the trickier stuff for the tough battle that is scheduled next Saturday when Car negie Tech comes o. tovjrn: Navy Usts I Signor Savoldf's tlfir Icounter was not so thrilling as the others, but only because it was only five yard that vere required this time to reach the goal. The play was Just as neatly executed as- before, and Joe could probably have gone on and on but for the solid stadium inner wall that might, perhaps, have stopped himj nothing else on that field could! By this time only four or five minutes into the third period Nary's craft was listing badly, and she was easy prey for the long parade of second and fourth string players that Rockne sifted into the game from then until the end.

A team composed largely of third string boys put over the fourth touchdown, Fred Staab, a hard-running sophomore fullback from Madison, punching over from the one-yard line at the outset of the fourth quarter. i 1 Navy's meager two pqintii athee niggardly consolation: aftpi4l UiaJ trip from Annapojjli 4 occurred through a safety midway- Of the; final period. A punt by. Capt. Blimp Bowstrom of the Mid shlpmen, bounded high and came to rest in Quarterback Murphy's arms on the Notre Dame three-yard line he being nailed in his tracks there.

Bernie Leahy went back into the end zone to punt out. but Agnew, lourth string center, sent the ball back high over Leahy's head, over the end line for an automatic safety, and two points for Bill Ingram's embryo admirals. Nary Lacks Reserves. Navy had Just about what Ut was expected to have a 'hard-playing, capable first but weak replacements, and. on the fhoMe, hoi enough all-around class io cope with the sort of football team that Notre Dame has in the field.

Don't get the idea that because Rockne used 40 men. it was entirely a matter of overpowering the middies ibyl sheer force of numbers. The of the many players was more Jri the. na- ture of giving the lads a than In trying to wear down pie enemy.

A blazing sun slanted its rays upon a massive structure of brick and Stone' out at the University of' Notre Dams Saturday afternoon to embellish the spectacle of a dream of years come true. Nearly 50.000 souls stood with heads uncovered within that structure and looked down reverently on the long ribbon of hallowed turf while a brief but reverent ceremony consecrated the great shell to the lurther pursuit of the high ideals of sportsmanship which made it possible. The reverent throng oi cosmopolites, which a few minutes later unloosed a' bedlam of cheering when 22 Jerseyed and cleated youths ran onto the field, stood silent on the tiered sides of Notre Dame's new stadium during the dedication.

Behind Mr.

Hering a color guard stood at attention near the flag pole waiting his word to unfurl the Stars and Stripes. Nearby was massed the Notre Dame band, resplendent in blue and gold garb. Rear Admiral S. S. Robison, superintendent of the United States Naval academy, the Rev.

Oct. 11 The treasury and the department of Justice were at odds to-day over the amount of industrial alcohol that had been diverted into the bootleg trade. James H. Doran, the industrial alcohol commissioner. Issued a statement takiny excepting to figures made public by Prohibition Director Amos W.

W. Woodcock and asserting the latter's estimate was far too high. It was the first difference of opinion between these two units since they were separated, with the transfer of the prohibition bureau from the treasury to the department of justice last July. Calls Figure Excessive. In a monograph on liquor production issued a week ago, Wooacock said 4.00.000 gallons of illicifoever-ages could have been made during the fiscal year of 1930 from alcohol diverted from the perfumery and toilet water trade.

Doran to-day termed this figure "many times excessive." He said gallons of alcohol would have been necessary to produce 4.000.000 gallons of liquor or about 40 per cent of the total amount of legal alcohol manufactured for the use of the perfumery and toilet water makers. He added that statistics in his bureau showed the diversion from this branch of the industrial alcohol field was small and nothing like the amount Woodcock's figures indicated. I Sees Injustice. Doran said he felt an injustice had been done to the manufacturers of toilet water and. perfumery who he said, have cooperated with the trea- sury in every way to prevent the dl version of alcohol intended for their use.
