THE MICHIGAN DAILY RU NERS WILL OPPOSE GOPHERS st lOCKNEMEN TO PLAY CLASH TOE Midway's "Grand Old M SPARTANS )A ILLINI, IOW\ ELEVENS PLAY IMPORTANT: TILT llawkeye llomecomers Pray For Upset As Indians Start November Drive For Title I i Battle Brings Two of Country's Most Powerful Elevens Together At South Bend NOTRE DAME UNDEFEATED (Special to The Daily) SOUTH BEND, Nov. 4.-Two of the most powerful teams in the country will be pitted against each other when Coach Knute Rockne's undefeated 'Fighting Irish' meet the invasion of the powerful Gopher outfit headed by its all-American fullback, Herb Joest- ing, this afternoon at Cartier field. Although this contest is regarded as the most imnortant battle in the Mid- dIle West this afternoon, it is probable that it will be witnessed by the small- est crowd of any dame in that sec-f tion, because of the fact that the seat-? ing capacity of the Notre Dame field is only 25,000. Coaches hold Enviable Records Today's contest not only brings4 powerful teams together, but also two of the foremost coaches. No mentor in the country can boast a b:etter record than that established by Rockne E at Notre Dame since he assumed the coaching duties there in 1918 and ,few can equal the mark established by Dr. Spears, the v'eteran Minnesota mentor. In the five contests played this year the Notre Dame has flashed the same offensive power that has characterized" Rockne machines in the past. Coe. Detroit, Indiana, Navy, and Georgia, Tech have all fallen before the Irish' driving offensive by large scores. Minnesota Loons As Threat C Minnesota, despite a tie game with Indiana, looms as a likely contender' for Conference honors. The Gophers hold decisive victories over North Da- kota, Oklahoma A. and M., and Iowa, besides a 13-7 win over Wisconsin. Today's game will see the powerfult running attack of the Northmnen pit-3 ted against the speed and passingM ability of Rockne's charges. Notre Dame has one of the greatest half- backs in the country in Flannigan, , and a remarkable kicker and passer , in Johnny Niemiec, while the Minne- sota team includes a formidable arrayt of ball carriers in Joesting, Almquist, Hoyde, Nydahl, and Barnhardt. It is considered a tossup as to whether Rockne will send his second team against the Gophers or start his first string warriors. HAWKS BOAST GOOD LINE (Special to The Daily.) IOWA CITY, Nov. 4.-Mighty Illi- nois, one of the two unbeaten Big Ten teams, and vengeful Iowa, goaded by homecomers praying for an upset. meet on the gridiron here this after- noon. For the Illini, the game means the first gesture of the November drive to the championship, and for Iowa hc contest holds the hope that somehow the tail-end team will rise. to super heights in the final home game. It is hard to say which Burt Iug. wersen, now Iowa's coach but form- erly one of Zuppke's most famous athletes, fears most,-the running at- tack created by his old master, led by Timm, Humbert, and Stewart, or the passing game, with Stuessy letting fly to Timm, Grange and others. Passes Beat Wildcats. The Illini won the Northwestern game with passes. But the aerial at- tack was foiled by the alert Michigan backs- and the Orange and Blue team completed only two of 14. But when the air game falls, the line crackers and the end runners begin. Iowa's line has looked strong this week with Captain Nelson, Schleusner and Yegge breaking through the bulky freshman wall to create havoc in the backfield. But it is the defend- ing backs} who have yet to prove their ability to bat down passes after their failure to hinder the Minnesota air game.

I.-Brown Uni- versity's football team will be without the services of two Varsity linemen for this week's game. Having covered a three mile course in 15:26 last Saturday, the freshmen harriers .will endeavor to better their time in the meet scheduled for to- morrow morning. This will mark.,the second run over the three mile course. With the final run but two weeks; off, Coach Beals' freshmen charges show promise of developing into a smooth working aggregation. Among the outstanding candidates are, Groehn, Benson, Loyd Cody, and his brother, Nelson Cody. PITTSBURGH-Ty Cobb will no, 'get a bid of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Alonzo A. Stagg. Now in his 36th year as coach of the+ University of Chicago eleven, Stagg is the dean of all American coaches in point of service. When Stagg took charge of.the Mar- oons in 1891, he brought with him the old Yale system of play and enjoyed phenonmenal success foi' a continued period, dominating the early North- western and later Western Confer- ences. It has been a cardinal point in Stagg's teaching not to inspire a "lust for victory" in his players but rather to "develop manhood." Among the Chicago stars developed by Stagg are Eckersall, the Thomas brothers, McCarthy, Zorn, Pyott, Cris- ler, Hirschberger, Catlin, McGuire, and others. Michigan and Chicago last met in 1920 when Coach Yost's Wolverines downed the Maroons by a 14-0 score. 1 Downtown Store for Michigan Men" ~1 INI 10, l l 41 Custom Tailoring Styles that trace their origin back to the leading fashion centers, both here and abroad -made up of woolens, many of which bear immediate witness to their foreign birth-first, Custom-Housed by Uncle Sam -then, Custom*- Tailored by Browning-King.
