SOLDIER FIELD, Chicago, Oct. 10. (AP) Rain, mud and a great Northweetern team conspired to stop Notre Dame's famous victory march of football at 20 straight conquests before an excited throng of 75,000 spectators at Soldier Field today: The "fighting Irish," carrying on for their departed Knute Rockne, weren't beaten In their valiant bid to establish a new winning streak but were held to a scoreless tie, a result whloh was almost as precious to the white shlrted giants from Northwestern. Of the two teams, evenly matched in all departments, but stopped by the almost constant deluge which churned the battlefield Into a verlt. able quagmire, It waa Northwestern which came the closest to victory. Twice the Wildcats marched on the break of fumbles, to within the shadows of the Notre Dame goal line only to be turned back. Once, the Wlldcata hammered through to the Notre Dame four yard line only to miss their first down by the heart breaking margin of one foot. A few minutes later, In the same second period, they rushed to the five yard etrlpe only to see their golden op portunity float away on an Incom pleted pass over the goal line. The Northwestern 20-yard line was tne limit of the Notre Dame foot ball travels today. Three times, the Fighting Irish" got to that point nut tney could budge the Wildcat line no farther Statistics gave Notre Dame a slight edge In the game despite the two nig wildcat threats that were almost cashed In. The raiders from South Bend made 106 yards from scrim mage to 81 by their rivals and piled up six first downs to Northwestern's three. Fumbling was about even but Northwestern recovered nine muffs to six by the Irish. Not a single pass was completed and only one was Intercepted and that one by notre Dame deep In Its own terri tory. -a 'FOR MARSHFIELD MARSHFIELD, Ore., Oct. 10.

LOUIS SPORTSMAN'S PARK, ST. LOUIS, Oct. 10. (AP) -In & finish that al ternated thrills and chills for the home forces, the Cardinals recaptured the banner of the world baseball championship today, bringing It back to the national league and St. Louis after a lapse of five lean years. The National league champions. In a spirited attack conquered their .ne mesis, none other than George Earn shaw and whipped the Athletics, 4 to 3, in the seventh and deciding game of the prolonged battle. It gave the cardinals the decision, four games to three, duplicating their margin of triumph over the Yankees in 1926. Old Burleigh Grimes, the 37-year- old master of the spltball. was the hero of the final victory. He scored his second triumph of the series over the Mackmen, to avenge his 1030 setbacks, but weakened In the" ninth and was relieved by southpaw BUI Hallahan. The southpaw, who twice had whipped the Athletics, to the rescue with two out, the tying run On first base, ended the game by forc ing Max Bishop to fly out to Pepper Martin. It was an exciting finish, as the A's put on a belated drive with two out, due mainly to the wildness of Grimes, whose strength was fast ebb ing and who appeared to feel the strain of hurling with a battered lit tle finger, hurt by a Une drive In last Monday's game. It was a fitting climax to a battle for baseball honors that surged back and forth In dramatic fashion before the Cardinals finally broke down the rule of the Athletics; ended the American league's streak of world series triumphs at four straight; blasted Connie Mack's dream of a record string of three conquests; brought the games highest honors to their grizzled pilot, Charles (Gabby) Street at the close of his second big league managerial year, end clinched the winners' share amounting to 94,- 484 per man. Right Fielder George Watklns' home run drive off Earnshaw, turn ed out to be worth Just about $45, 000, representing the aggregate dif ference between the winners' and los ers' share of the financial spoils. It had looked earlier In the game as just as an extra measure of triumph over the great right-hander, but as it turned out it was the deceslve stroke In furnishing the margin of victory. 4 KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., Oct. 10.
