(Copyright, "1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—Three amazing things have occurred in the course of the football season thus far—things ‘that point to the great- ness of the personality and prowess of human will. First, there is that triumph of mind over obstacles many and va- ried which is to be read in the steady, inexorable advance of Cor- nell after two humiliating early sea- son defeats. Second, comes Chicago's rise to brillant form which put a great football eleven on the defensive and finally served to make Illinois hap- py to get out of the contest with a tie, Third is Princeton’s sudden and. totally un'ooked for development as a formidable offensive and defen- sive machine. Herein. le elements that make amateur sport all that idealistic thinkers. claim for it. Indomitable determination, unflagging energy and constructive thought and per- sonal magnetism on the part of the coachés are Indicated clearly, while for the players we read sacrifice of selfish’ interests, absolute yielding to discipline and spirit that burns lke a bright flame. And the lesson is far reaching. It affects very signally the morale of an entire student body and gives lumni fighting the batt'e of life out in the world the hopeful object sson that the will to do combined with the adjunct “of physical fitness. will servé gréafly to solve their own problems. * Recently in the ‘athletic off'ce of a great uri'versity the writer read a letter from the eraduats mrenacer of another university asking for a ‘Yall ‘game in 1925. ‘We have fitted ourselves ethical- sid the letter, “to meet institu- ‘ons with the highest ideals on even terms. z “We have installed the one-year rite nnd. bawvo raised: our, standards of eletbility,” ‘This co} “There possibly colleges In -the United States,” writes Major Griffith, commissioner of) Big.

There are more than a half dozen of these-if whisperings one hears here and there be true. But they are defeating themselves West’ Point is defeating herself in the minds of sportsmen by declining to follow the Navy in the adoption of the one-year rule. The writer has the greatest admiration for Army. school on the Hudson and numbers: good friends among her coaches of the past and present. Nonetheless, no friend of the insti- tution. who believes that athletic success must always be applauded in ratio as the means of that suc- cess have been fair and sporting can withhold regret that West Point does not meet the Navy upon even terms. One direct and immediate result of the installation of the one-year rule at West Point would be a wid- er and more interesting field from which to select opponents. Curious incidents in football are witiplying. Saturday an excited rinceton rooter tripped over a seat d sprained his wrist. Previously a Inceton cheer leader Had di located his arm through the strenu- ousness of his activity. Fred Mur- phy, an umpire, pulled a tendon in the Harvard-Dastmouth game. which shows that not alone the play- ers suffer. 50 GOLFERS IN NORFOLK PLAY NORFOLK, Va., Nov. 14.—About fifty professional golfers including many of the ranking stars of tne game, were entered to start today in the. first’ open professional tourna- ment of the Princess: Anne Country club, ‘starting in threesomes, the contestants will complete 72 holes today and tomorrow. Five purses will be awarded for the low medal scores, The entries include Wa'ter Hagen, Gene Sarazen, Joe Kirkwood, Jim Barnes, Tom Kerrigan, Pat Doyle, Harry Hampton and other leaders. Par scores of 72 were turned in by ten of the players after workcuts yesterday. The courts record, 71 is held by Doyle.

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—(United Press,)—Nearing the } end of foothall’s greatest and most interesting season the big teams will jump into the most important battles of the year tomorrow on gridirons in every section of the country. The schedule is filled with highly important engage- ments, but for the first time the color of intersectional battles will be missing. Neighbor- ho.d baitles, however, will furnish competition sufficient to make up for the lack north-south and east: west rivalry, For real fighting ané an exhibition of hard, desperate football, nation- al ‘eyes will have to turn west: to Sou.h Bend, where the good Notre Dame eleven will engage Nebraska. ‘Thie is mcre than & football game. It is the opportunity for one of the finest teams that ever ran a football field to avenge two defeats in the last two years at the hands of Ne- braska, the only two"losses* that Notre Dame has beeh forced to take in that time. : Some bad feeling developed tn the game at Linccin last year, the Notré Dame players that Ne» braska touched upon some religious subjects in trying to get the goats of the Notre Dame players. Notre Dame has been through a terrific schedule, and it is one of the new wonders of the world how Rockne can hope to keep his team from going stale through such a: test. Nebraska rested up last week in preparation for the.game and should be in fine condition. : Perhaps the Princeton-Yale game is the leading encounter of the east- ern section, but there is other con- vests, without the tradition of the “Big Three” games, that promise football just as interesting. 8 Princeton's games with Harvard and Yale are always interesting: ‘to the public because as a rule, Prince- ten, is making an under-dog fight and those who have no reverence for “Big Three” football would like ‘to see Princeton beat both Yale and Harvard. Yale is favored to’ win tomorrow,’ but Princeton teams: have the fac- ulty of pulling the unexpected. The Tiger never quits. Z. Getting ready for the last of the ‘Big Three” games.nex§. week, Har- vard plays Brown at Cambridge. Per- haps the game’ was scheduléd, with the idea of providing easy competi- tion and making it possible for the: Harvard coaches to take several var- sity players to Princeton to look over Yale. Brown is no cinch, how- ever, and Harvard may have quite a battle, Pennsylvania and Penn Btate have their annual battle at Phile+ delphia and it will be a battle as it is always. Penn has one of the best teams developed there in years, but Penn State has one of the weakest of a long string of successful teams. There is no Killinger, Haines or Wil- son at Penn State this year and Penn looks like the winner. Pittsburgh’ and Washington and Jefferson have another annual bat- tle at Pitteburgh. It does not matter’ to the followers of obth teams that. they have gone down to defeat this season. They are both rugged teams that know a lot of football. Pitts- burgh looks like the probable win- ner, Dartmouth comes to New . York with a wide smile and a lot of glee ower the prospect of beating Cor- nell in their annual battle. Lots of boys who have been under Cornell feet in the last three years haye been having the same glee swatting Cornell on the chin this year. Dart- mouth has, one of the real football teams in the seat this year and should give Cornell a good beating. Syracuse, getting ready for the hard Colgate game, had a breather against Niagara and the Navy cases up against Busknell. The Army in arranging a game against Columbia probably figured on having a good workout to tune up for the Navy game. The Cadets didn’t reckon that the late Percy Haughton would turn out the team that was developed at Columbia this year and nowgthe Army seems to have a:real Aut should wir.

PRICE TO HOLD STAR PLAYER By JOHN B. FOSTER. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NE WYORK, Nov. 14.—Managef Branch Rickey, of the St. Louis Na- tionals; having. helped Rogers Horns- by build up-2 reputation as the most yaluable ball player in the National Teague and having refused a bonafide offer from Brooklyn of $275,000 for him, now fixfds himself in’ a position where he will have to pay and pay to: keep his star. Hornsby's contract with St. Louis has come up for renewal and the discussion {s being carried’on. in um- p's figures, at Jeast so far as Rog- ers 18 concerned. It may possibly wind up {n Hotns- by’s sale.. There are other National clubs that would pay handsomely to get him: There is no doubt about the good faith of Brooklyn's $275,- 000. offer. St..

As it turned out, St. Louis get full value out of Horns- aid. ‘| by.. because he was injured part of the time.. But when he was in, he batted better than ever. St. Louis uses him at second for want of‘a better man for the post. Hornsby would make a cracking right fielder for some club and it | would not hurt his batting eye if he Were transferred to the outfield. ‘The Chicago Nationals are an- ms to get a hard-hitting outfield. er. Hitherto, Chicago's. policy has been. to build up_a team of young blood, -withont making any. expen- sive purchases, but. the success of that ‘policy. has. been‘so questionable that it looks.as though Chicago were going to unshackle the old bank role andigo forth looking for some.real class already ‘developed.

It was the first time in the history of the game in this country that such an inquiry. has been held. The charges included the use of profanity on the courts loud enoug! to be heard by spectators, disagree- ment with the umpires’ ruling and laxity in complying with the regu- lations, all of which offenses, it is declared, were tending to bring the game into disrepute. The great majority of p'ayers are not affected by the charges, which concern only a few “black sheep’ who; it {s alleged show bad temper when they disagree with decisions and some times use disgraceful lang- uage. “I have known a famouy Woman player to eave the court in tears because of tre way he mixed doubles partner addressed her,’ ‘ono umpire told the Dafly Mail, and other in- stances of Ike nature were cited.
