Vintage b/w newspaper image of Harry Stuhldreher carries ball against Stanford in Rose Bowl, Jan. 1, 1925.jpg Caption text says "Harry Stuhldreher, Notre Dame quarterback and all-American in the position on most of the team picked by the critics, is shown here carrying the ball in the New Year's day game between Notre Dame and Stanford in the Rose bowl at Pasadena, Cal. Evidently he did not gallop far as his foot slipped out of bounds as the photo was snapped and as three husky Cardinals (at the left) charged him. Apparently it was an out-of-bounds play by Notre Dame, so that the latter could get the ball fifteen yards from the sideline." The Des Moines Register
