Re your tagline: The Irish have destroyed every team they have come up against of late (In 1940, of course). On October 18 “Knute Rockne - All American” opened. The next day ND shut out Carnegie 61-0. The last couple weeks they took care of first Army and then Navy. Today Iowa is on the menu, er, schedule at South Bend. I’m sort of reluctant to read tomorrow’s paper to learn of the Hawkeyes’ fate. The news from Europe is bad but I don’t know if I’m prepared for this gridiron carnage.
