(Special) Notre Dame's football team, which has been looking at spread plays, reverses and fancy stuff of that kind for the past two weeks, will get a taste of old-fashioned slam bang power here tomorrow when Carnegie Tech takes the field for the 18th game in this intersectional rivalry.

Chet Grant, who scouted the Tartans, said that they showed a tendency to pass on first and second down in whipping Geneva in their opener, but that they relied on power against Holy Cross last week. In Frank Jordano and George Muha, Tech has two of the hardest running backs in the East. The Irish will vouch for Muha's ability, having seen considerable of that gentleman the past two years. Jordano was understody for Mer-lyn Condit for two years and didn't have much chance to play. Tony Laposke at fullback and Paul Friedlander, quarterback, complete a veteran backfleld which will deploy behind a senior line.

Dove to Start at Left End. Coach Elmer Layden said he would stick with the lineup named earlier this week, as he took his lads into the stadium for a few final touches. Bob Dove, Youngs-town (O.) sophomore, will be at left, end In the week's only change. Bob Saggau and Steve Juzwik, halfbacks who pass to each other and sometime! to Quarterback Bob Hargrave, and Capt. Milt Piepul, fullback, will form the Irish ball-carrying group.

Piepul has recovered from a leg Injury which hampered him to the extent that he made only 19 yards in four trips against Georgia Tech last week. A crowd of approximately 35,000 is expected to turn out for the encounter. Probable lineups: Notro Dame. Carnegie Tech.

Bloomington. Oct. 18. (Special) Indiana and Iowa will clash here tomorrow afternoon in the Hoosiers' traditional homecoming football game. Home-coming activities attracting thousands of I.U.

alumni are expected to swell the crowd to nearly 20,000. A special train will bring the Iowa squad and Indiana University alumni and football fans from Indianapolis late tomorrow morning. terrific scoring punch already has been demonstrated as the Hawkeyes opened their current c'ampaign with a 46-to-0 victory over Soulh Dakota and last Saturday beat Wisconsin, 30 to 12. Bounding Bill Green, Junior full back, rated one of the speediest ball carriers in the Big Nine, led the scoring with three touchdowns. Iowa Won Last Year, 32-29.

Although minus the services of All-American Nile Kinnick, Dr. Eddie Anderson's 1940 eleven is rated virtually as strong as the team which last year defeated Indiana, 32 to 29, in a tingling touchdown battle. Having dropped a 13-to-6 verdict to Texas and a 13-to-7 decision to Nebraska, the Fightin" Hoosiers will be after their first victory of the season in their Big Nine opener. 1 Coach Bo McMillin sent his Indiana charges through a light workout this afternoon and then took most of the squad to McCor-mick's Creek stale park for the night, Probable lineups: Indiana.

Several hundred townspeople witnessed the celebration, which was concluded with a pajama parade in the busi ness section.

All Bulldog regulars with the exception of Fullback Henry (Hank) Abts will be ready to go when Butler's Indiana Conference champions invade the Wabash College stronghold this afternoon to engage the Cavemen in a gridiron fracas which will mark the 50th anniversary of the first clash between the two schools. Abts suffered a severely wrenched knee during a scrimmage session this week and will be lost to the squad for a week or 10 days. In the 29-game Butler-Wabash series, the Indianapolis school has won fifteen engagements, while the Little Giants have taken 10. Four contests have ended in deadlocks. The Butler gridders, victorious in only one of four starts this season, have labored all week to perfect an offensive which will show up well against the Cavemen.

The Fairview athletes yesterday afternoon watched their freshmen swamp DePauw's rhinies, 39 to 0, after which they took to the bowl's turf to run through a light signal drill. Also at stake in this afternoon's game will be the Iron Key, emblematic of gridiron supremacy between the two schools since 1933. Last year the Bulldogs romped over the Cavemen, 55 to 0.

VOLS, ALABAMA GRAB SPOTLIGHT By GAYLE TALBOT. New York, Oct. 18. Unbeaten Tennessee and untested Alabama, a pair of the nation's most powerful elevens from all appearances, pry open the Southeastern Conference race at Birmingham tomorrow in a battle that headlines the day's far-flung foot- Dan scneduie.

Tennesse, coming back strong after its rout by Southern California in the last Rose Bowl classic, enters the game with a victory over Duke to its early-season credit. Critics who saw that game say the Volunteers are as dangerous as last year, despite the loss of George Cafego. Alabama has had to disclose little of its true strength in romping over three preliminary foes, but the Crimson Tide is reputed to be loaded. Mississippi, another member of the Southeastern group, faces a strong non-Conference foe in Duquesne, while the thrice-beaten Tulane team can expert no breathing spell against the Rice Owls of the Southwest Conference. Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt meet at Atlanta.

Cornell, voted the nation's leading eleven in the last Associated Press poll, figures to add another victory to its two-year sweep when it engages Syracuse at Ithaca. The Big Red will not get its first real test until it plays Ohio State next week. Tommy Harmon and his Michigan mates do not figure to have their triumphant progress interrupted by Illinois. Ohio State, vic tim of a surprise defeat by North western last week, tries to bounce back against Minnesota. Notre Dame, with what looks like its greatest team since Knute Rockne, is expected to receive only nominal opposition from Carnegie Tech, while Northwestern anticipates no real trouble handling Wisconsin.

Aggies Play Razorbacks. North Carolina and North Carolina State clash in the day's South ern Conference headliner, renewing one of that, section most enthusi astic feuds. The Texas Aggies, led by big John Kimbrough, open the defense of their Southwest Conference title against Texas Christian. Dana Bible's University of Texas Long-horns, who are reputed to be a real menace to the Aggies this season, open their Conference race against the Arkansas Razorbacks. The always colorful Nebraska- Kansas game heads the corn belt festivities as the Huskers open their Big Six Conference schedule in what should be the grand manner.

Stanford, making a sensational comeback under its new coach, Clark Shaughnessy, has been made a slight favorite over Washington State in the West coast's leading tussle at Pullman. U.S.C. plays Oregon, California meets U.C.L.A., and Washington engages Oregon State to round out the Far West slate. Boston College, regarded by some as the East's second best team, next to Cornell, takes on Idaho in the day's most ambitious intersectional venture. Columbia entertains Georgia in a game that the odds-layers regard as a stand off.

Other Eastern fixtures are Harvard-Army, New York University-Holy Cross, Pittsburgh-Fordham, Yale-Dartmouth, Penn-Princeton, and Colgate-Duke. HASH IS ENTERED IN JAMAICA EVENT New York, Oct. 18. Mrs. Payne Whitney's four-year-old Hash, who hasn't done so well ever since he was invited to the Pimlico Special, gets what may be his last "prep" outing for that event on Nov.

1, in the Gallant Fox Handicap at Jamaica tomorrow. Only three other horses all of them three-year-olds were named today to run against the aptly-named son of Questionaire-Deli-caey in the second running of the mile-and-five-eighths event named after one of the greatest horses in the last dozen years. Although he is asked to pack 123 pounds, spotting his rivals up to 21 pounds, the Whitney hope probably will go to the post an odds-on choice to take the winner's end of the stake won last year by William Woodward's route-going Isolator. Entered against Hash are John B. Partridge's Devil Crag, which hasn't done much as a three-year- old, and a pair from Hal Price Headley'i barn Salamini and Equitable.

Devil Crag will carry 102 and Headley entry 105 each. John Mascari (right) and his, twin brother Mike (left) finished one-two for Manual as the Soutn sulers defeated Tech, 19 to SB, In a cross-country meet at Manual! TEMPLE UPSETS MICHIGAN STATE Philadelphia, Oct. 18. (U.P.) Jimmy Powers returned the opening kickoff 105 yards for a Temple touchdown against Michigan State tonight and before the Spartans recovered the Owls rolled up a three-touchdown lead which they protected successfully for a 21-19 victory. Before the 15,000 fans had settled into their seats at Temple stadium.

Powers took the kickoff five yards behind his own goal line and behind perfect Interference swept the entire length of the field for the lonegst touchdown run in Temple's 16-year football history. The favored Spartans were rocked back on their heels by the opening-minute blow and were dazed completely as the Owls struck overland and in the air for two more touchdowns in the second period. Successful conversion kicks spelled the Temple margin of victory. The Owls made all three while Michigan State was only able to make one after rallying to push over two touchdowns in the third and another in the fourth. Temple's second-period scores came when Jim Yeager plunged over from the five and Tomasic hit tackle for seven yards.

The Spartans struck through the air for two third-period touch downs. One was from Schalb to Carey and the other from Wy Davis to Friedlund. Davis passed to Ball for 11 yards and Fenton added the lone point for State's final-period tally. Howe Hardwood Team Will Face 16 Opponents Howe High School will face 16 opponents on the hardwood during the 1940-41 basketball season, Athletic Manager George Farkas announced yesterday.
