Trend of 1934 Grid Play Seen as Colleges Select Ath- ic Heads New York, Feb. 15.—(?)}—The front, ranks of eastern college football staffs, after a notable series of shakeups, now have been substantially filled for 1934, making it possible to judge some of the salient effects. Perhaps the most noteworthy trend among the. major universities is the switch away from the Notre Dame offense and toward the Warner type of game. Yale and Navy have discarded the elements of Notre Dame football upon which their play has been based for the past few years. Both plus some features of the Warner system, with “Ducky” Pond taking charge at New Haven and Lieut. Tom Hamilton as- suming control at Annapolis this spring. ‘Warner football also will be taught at Dartmouth by the new as head- oa by Earl (Red) Blaik, with Harry Ellinger, and Andy Gustafson as chief assistants. Army, Pittsburgh and Colgate al- ready are well established among the eastern strongholds of Warner sys- tem football. The influence of the Big Ten type of play, which has been gaining popu- larity, will be felt as Glen Harmeson of Purdue becomes head coach at Le- high and Benny Friedman, ex-Michi- gan All-America quarterback, takes ee the job at City College of New Army's youthful head coach, Lieut. Gar Davidson, Wednesday ue completion of his staff, two vacancies! which were created by the departure of Blaik and Ellinger to Dartmouth. The newcomers, both former West Point players and coaches, are Lieut. Blackshear (Babe) Bryan and Lieut. Edward Doyle. Preparedness note.

State college has tallied 245 while opposing fives registered 187. Coach Clem Letich’s squad has maintained an average of 43 points for 13 games this season. Largely re- sponsible for this high-scoring record are Ted Meinhover, six-foot seven- inch center, and Herman Witasek, six-foot two-inch forward. Other cogs in the smooth working U. ma- chine are Pinky Mullen, Westy Booth, Harold Tait and Captain Bernie ‘Smith. The Sioux only need one victory in two remaining conference games to take the championship. State's Si Coach Bob Lowe has a lineup that is full of surprises. One of these sur- prises was uncorked last week when South Dakota university nosed them out 32 to 30, after the Bison had been Picked as easy victors. But the biggest surprise to many state basketball fans was that the imexperienced team of last fall de- veloped into one of the outstanding cage combinations of North and South Dakota. But one regular of last year, Bud Marquardt, began the season for the Green and Yellow. The other players that have been prominent on the court are almost all second-year men in their first year of varsity competi- Russ Anderson, Pretz Reiners, Stan Maynard, and Don Boettchen are among the sopho- mores who played prominent parts: in state victories. Last year men who have seen service this year are Mikkle- son, Stinson and Denenny. A non-conference game is sched- uled for Saturday night.

Battles leading to the East-West indoor championships in March are being staged in many armories, with more than 1,000 players participating. ‘While high-goal Texans, Califor- nians and vieing visitors from other polo points are struggling outdoors at Santa Barbara, Pasadena, Del Monte, San Mateo and on other sun-bathed fields in California, indoor rivalry in wintry climates reaches its zenith, Championships are being contested in eight geographical regions for the right to play in the nationals which probably will be staged again in Chi- \cago's 124th Field Artillery Armory where crowds ranging from 10,000 to 15,000 saw the 1933 matches. * * * Meanwhile there is league compe- tition in Chicago, New York, Boston, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Detroit and several cities in New Jer- sey. Just before the finals at Chicae g0, the dates for which have not been set, it is the plan of the Indoor Polo Astociation to send high goal teams on a tour that will pause at many cities, Younger men rapidly are taking over important executive positions in polo association, jobs formerly held by their seniors, and new and nterprising ideas promoting the game re being adopted. Winston Guest, 10-goal indoor man and probably the best indoor player in America, has become one of the vice presidents, as has Elbridge T. Gerry, who helped to win the three important outdoor tournaments of the 1933 season, in- cluding the open, playing with Aurora. ** * In addition to the present indoor activity and the outdoor games in| more temperate climates, it has been reported that the British are organ- izing for another invasion in search | of the international trophy they ‘ost in 1921, ‘This comes as welcome news to poloists in this country, arousing speculation at once as to how many westerners. will be on the team that|— is selected to defend the cup. ‘The last international match left a glorious picture.

The Sedalia, Mo., red-head, who is gunning for his eleventh world’s series three-cushion billiard title. makes bil- liards his means of livelihood now. But it has not always been thus. #since he was born in the Kerry |Patch section of St. Louis 47 years ago, he’s been a carpenter, fighter, wrestler, actor, baseball player, man- ager of night clubs, a guide in the north woods. Between jobs he found time to or- iginate the diamond system that has revolutionized three-cushion billiards. It was his last match as a wrestier, 28 years ago, that almost ended his billiard career, To this day he bears the scars. His right eye threatens to slow down his game and he has spent thousands of dollars to cure it from twitching and hurting, when he uses it under the bright lights. Layton kept in running for the title Wednesday by defeating Tiff Denton, of Kansas City, 50 to 18. It was not Layton’s victory that furnished the surprise Wednesday however. It was Otto Reiselt’s victory over Willie Hoppe, the favorite. By 50 to 44, Reiselt dropped Hoppe out of the undefeated class and gave J. N. Bozeman, Jr., of Vallejo, Calif. sole Possession of first place with five stright victories. Hoppe's defeat left the former baik- line king tied for second place with the defending champion, Welker Cochran, and Layton, each of whom have won four of their five matches. i Basketball Scores mt At Butte, Mont.—Montana Nor- mal 32; Montana Mines 39, is delinquent upon tite following described stock on ac t of assessments levied on Oct. 1933 and assessments levied pi thereto, the sev posite the nam shareholders as fo!
