ROCKNE’S ILLNESS BECOMES WORSE, CURRENT RUMORS SAY Football Genius of Notre Dame Fails to Show Up for Practice Yesterday TELEPHONE DISCONNECTED Trip to Pittsburgh for Carnegie Game Saturday Aggra vated Infection South Bend. lud.. Oet. 29.—.-p Rumors were current on tiie Notre Dame university campus today that the condition of Knute Rocktie. fa mous football coach, had taken a turn for the worse. An announcement by tiie university that Rockne's trip last week to Pitts burgh for the Notre Dame-Carnegie game had aggravated his condition and the coach's absence from prac tice yesterday afternoon was ac cepted as partial substantiation of the rumors. The Rockne telephone was disconnected last night and no word was forthcoming from the resi dence as to his condition. Rockne has suffered lor several weeks from an infection in his right leg, but has stuck to his coaching task, directing his team's practice bv a radio amplifying set from his en closed car. Last week he watched tiie Carnegie game from his wheel chair on the sidelines. Tartans, Panthers Play 5 More Years Pittsburgh. Oct. 29.—Carnegie Tech and the University of Pittsburgh, rated two of the strongest football institutions in the east, have signed a new five-year contract for their elevens to meet here annually. For a number of seasons the two local schools have used the stadium jointly. Different than other cities supporting two high-powered elevens. Pittsburgh is assured that athletic relations between Pitt and Carnegie Tech are of the best. Indications point to the Pitt-Tech game being one of the season's grid classics. Four of the last six battles have been won by Tech elevens, whereas a few years ago the contest was no more than a warmup for the Panthers. NINE PREP LEADERS On the freshman football team at the University of Pittsburgh arc nine athletes who were captains of their prep school eleven. imvHWK They may keep changing football rules but boxers still hit each other on the chin WPEjSgAfCKS Hardy Horses of Northern Plains NAGURSKI Sport Slants j ♦ — The All-American debate will be on shortly, if it hasn't already started. Most of tiie discussion, as usual, will dwell upon the exploits of tiie ball carriers. For variety, look into the achievements of these few linemen, so far among the most, outstanding: Sam Wakeman. Cornell, tackle and captain. Bert Schwartz. California guard. Morris Bodenger. Tulane guard. Jap Douds, Washington and Jeffer son guard. , Joe Donchess. Pittsburgh end. Wakeman. Schwartz and Douds, on one and the same afternoon, put on about as spectacular a set of perform ances along the forward line as has | been witnessed anywhere so far this ' season. Against Princeton. Wakeman was up and down the line to break up four successive Tiger plays at a time when Cornell was hard pressed to protect its winning lead. Cornell, under Dcbie, lias specialized in turning out great tackles, and Wakeman looks like one of the best, a-* good as Han son or Sundstrom of All-American fame. Douds was a big factor the same day in W. c-c J.'s scoreless tie with Carnegie. He is playing his last year with the Presidents and apparently set. to make it his greatest. Stanford had a brace of fine guards last year in Post and Robeskcy, but neither ever put on a better one-day performance than Mr. Schwartz of Berkeley did against Pennsylvania. It seemed as though he made about 50 per cent of the tackles, shifting , his 200 pounds around with the agil ity of a panther pouncing upon its prey. 1 Bodenger is hailed as one of the best linemen in the south. “He weighs 195 pounds, is very fast and in almost every line play when he is in the game." writes an observer of the Tulane Green Wave. Two of the East's greatest, ball- - carriers arc the Army's incomparable i Red Cagle and Dartmouth's wily A 1 j Marsters. fast fulfilling all the rosy I promise of his sophomore year. Notre Dame has a fleet set of backs, with Jack Elder the fastest if not also the slipperiest. Minnesota’s I Arthur Pharmer and lowa's captain.! Willis Glassgow, are two of the Big Ten stars, and Nebraska's Clair Sloan ! has come into his own after playing ! second fiddle to the great Blue ! Howell. Russell Saunders and Jesse Hill of Southern California, Harlow Rothert, the Stanford shotputter, and Cali fornia's elusive Benny Lom and slippery Lcland Eisan are among the best on the coast. Easterners who heard most about Lom over the radio had a good chance to observe this triple threat back in action against Pennsylvania. He does everything well, and it will be some time before he puts on any better de fensive stunt than he did by boot ing 60 yards to safety from behind his own goal line after a 15-yard penalty had put California on Its own 2-yard line at Franklin field. Lom has a great running mate in Eisan, who catches punts like an outfielder spears line drives. Playing barehead ed. Eisan reminded Easterners of Bob Sims, who scorned head-gear while running wild for Stanford last year.

Mickey Walker Is Favorite to Beat ! Nebraska Wildcat Middleweight Champion Is Re | garded as a Better Boxer and Harder Puncher # Los Angeles, Oct. 29.—(/!’>—Oil H canvas-covered battle ground at Wriglcy field. Mickey Walker, mid dleweight champion, tonight will de fend the crown which is his by right of might against the rushes of his most persistent challenger—Acc Hud kins. Reared in the ring school that teaches "No quarter asked and none given." these two gladiators are ex pected to settle a fistic dispute, in 10 rounds or less, that will go down as one of the memorable jousts of the game. One year ago they came together in an encounter which since has pro voked much comment, both for and against the decision. The Runison. N. J.. bulldog retained his title after ten furious sessions but Hudkitis al ways has claimed lie was the victim of a poor decision. Tonight the Nebraska Wildcat knocks at the title door for a second time. Some 25.000 persons, account ing for a gate of between $125,000 and $140,000 will be on hand. Different in their ring styles, each is. however, an old fashioned "bat tler' in the final analysis. Walker is the better boxer and harder puncher. Hudkins, a mauling, flailing bruiser." bores in steadily to the ultimate end of wearing down his opponents. Those who back their opinions with money have made Walker a 10-8 fav orite. although in some quarters they stack up even. It will be Walker’s third defense of the title since he won it from “Tiger" Flowers in 1926. Normally scaling over the middle weight limit. Walker was down to 162 pounds yesterday. A “drying out" to day was expected to trim him to the proper poundage. Hudkins is a legiti mate- middleweight and tips the beam well under the limit. Lieutenant Jack Kennedy of the navy will referee.
