quality of competition That remark was the seed of I what has grown into ono of the) greatest of intersectional football rivalries It took five years to sprout and blossom and then half the setting was changed with westward trek but since 1920 the USC-Notre Dame game has come along year after year as regularly as a birthdaj Today will be another crisp fall Saturday everybody hopes although Friday was none too promising with rooftops dank-ing sullen gray clouds and the heavy atmosphere threatening to break nut in a cold sweat any minute The statement said that Germany's proposals for

Olympic officials saying they would be forced to resign as hosts to the skaters skiiers and bob-sledders because of the rule forbidding a warring nation to stage the games From Lausanne Switzerland
