OFFICIAL FOOTBALL REVIEW-1929 91
Twomey and Cannon were invited by Dick Hanley,
Northwestern coach, to play on his team of Eastern stars
against an eleven of Western luminaries on the Pacific
coast, January 1. Elder was asked to play with a Midd!e­
Western team. against some Southern stars during the holidays
but decided that he has had enough football and will
spend Christmas with the folks in the old Kentucky home.
Sidelights on. the Season
The Nebraska Cornhuskers stopped off at South Bend
on their way to their game with Syracuse university and
were guests of the Notre Dame team at lunch before their
hosts had to hop a train for Baltimore and the Navy game
on Oct. 10. The Cornhuskers also worked out for a while
on Cartier practice field, evidently getting some good out
of their short drill-they beat Syracuse, 13 to 7.
The entire left side of the line consisting of Colrick,
Twomey, and Cannon; two centers, Moynihan and Nash;
right guard, Capt. Law, right end, Tom Murphy, and
left half Elder will be lost to the team for next year and
Coach Rockne will probably sing his usual song of woe
. next fall before the season opens.
Although Indiana is considered the football capital of the
world with its Notre Dame and Purdue, there is not a single
Hoosier on the former school's traveling squad and only
three on th~ entire roster. Abe Zoss, of South Bend, is one
of these and he was to have gone along to Bloomington for
the opening game, but remembered that Oct. 5 was New
Year's for him and had to stay home.
Tom Shaughnessy, a Notre Dame graduate and manager
of the Chicago Blackhawks hockey team, had his
puck-chasers at Notre Dame for a ten-day training session
at Cartier .field. It snowed most of the time and the boys
went through calisthenics in the gym.
In 'speaking of the proposed plan for scoring one point
for each first down, Coach Rockne said, ui underst~nd
that the American League will score a point for each man
left on base next year."
This was the second time in two successive seasons that
Notre Dame beat both· service teams,' having taken the
count of both Army and Navy last year.
