The try for goal after the touchdown failed. Glenrock should have scored twice, Inthe first quarter thev car- ried the ball across on the fourth down from the three yard line but were penalized for offside and in the third quarter were on a sure march to a score when a penalty for holding stopped them seven yards from @ touchdown. Casper was greatly overwelghed but made up for the lack of weight by speed. No particularly spectacu- lar plays were made during the game, both teams using line plays almost exclusively. Glenrock and Casper each completed three for- ward passes but the one resulting in the score was the only one which gained much yardage. The play of Gibson at end, Gow at center, Al'lsman, Brown and Cooper in the backfield was outstanding for Casper. Hathaway at center, Car- son, Paul and Claver in the back- field starred for Glenrock.

They make up a vital part of the St. Louis team, but Sisler is reported to feel that they are not so amenable to his management others might be. It has generally been believed that vas a ring within a ring on the St. Louis team. Not all of, the players have been conv¥inced | that Sisler was a good a manager as he is a first baseman. This probably lies at the bottom’ of the plans for re-organization, Stories of di ion began croping up in the 1924 spring train. ing season. The players, however, hid any such! feelings from outsid- ers, if they felt it, and talked more than any others about their hope that Sisler’s eyesight would be as good as before his illness. Later there were two or three on eam who were inclined to be ssimistic and to criticize some of the things that happe: ‘This, however, is not so unusual. Another thing that may be influ. encing the Brown management in making changes is the fact that the Players put on the market aro high 8 ied men, The club owners may not feel that they are getting their money's worth out of these high priced stars.

What Charley did not do to Lu's in the ring at the armory in New- ark on Wednesday night isnot done SURE 'T USe WHAT B10 You BY HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Nov. 15—(United Press}-In the phenomenal growth of football to a position where it is possible America's most pular sport, the intersectional idea of com- petition has had a most important part. - Bven with competition to intra- sectional games, fotball might have extended its field in proportion with other popular sports but it is quite certain that the game would not have grown so stupendously as it has in the past five years without intersectional competition. Football has become so popular that there is no way of gauging the future growth of the game, The biggest problem now ifs to find room for the millions of interested fans who want to spend their Saturday afternoons watching a battle of two teams, in which the majority of the spectators have no personal int George Huff, the hustling uate athletic manager of the Uni sity of Illinois, opened this season & most magnificent stadium at~Ur- bane that was built and dedicated in,the prize ring. For 12 rounds whi'e a mob of 6,000 shouted and ed and stood on their chai: inert walked around Firpo ke a. cooper around a beer keg. He hit the big fellow when and where he liked and at the same time ver gave the bull a chance to get set for one of his famous blows, It was an exact reproduction of the Brennan-Firpo fight up to that time In the 12th round when Brennan, for some unknown reason, stuck his Jaw in the way of one of Firpo's rishts. But Weinert was not sticking his daw in anybody's way. He made Luis miss so often and in so many ways that it was funny and at the game time he never let up with his left hooks and jal Wihen the right was ended, Firpo’s face looked like an uncooked beefsteak and the pallid blond beauty of the Adonis was not marred by so much as a scratch. Even his hair was not mussed. ‘ Weinert ten -years ago was re- garded as the cleverest heavy in the ving. Weill, if he isn’t entitled to that reputation right now, the writ- er knows nothing about boxing. —_—_——_—__ FOOTBALL QUESTIONS ADDRESS: Lawrence Perry, Special Football Correspondent of the Casper Tribune, 814 World Building, New York, If you have some question to ask about footbull— If you want a rule interpreted— If you want to kDow anything about a play— Write to Lawrence Perry, for fifteen years an authority on the game as wri and official, If you want a jonal reply en- close a stamped, self-addressed envelope, Otherwise your ques- tion will be answered in this (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) Question—Is there a penalty if there are only six men on the line of ceeaneee ?

The stadium, as it now stands, accammodates about, 55,000. “When the le Bowl was buil Huff said recent! he idea, to pro- vide a place for 80,000 spectators Was considered foolish, But look what has happened since. The Yale Bowl is not one-half big enough to accommodate crowds for the big ames. “Because we wanted to bulld our stadium without going into debt we made the plans fit our pocketbook, but we kept in mind the fact that Iilnois would outgrow that stadium and we put it up so that it can be added to from time to time, We are going to do that and I hope be- fore I leave Illinois to see a stadium there large enough to seat 150,000 and I'm quite sure that we will see it filled. Perhaps then it will not be large enough," Discussions of the popularity of football always bring a rise out of the old reliable baseball circles. They claim that baseball is the national pastime and that certain asc e games would fill a stadium ji as large as any of the football rect, Certain games would draw equally with baseball, but we do not believe that as many games of base- ball would outdraw as many games of football if it were possible to name the best baseball games poss- ible as opposed to the best gam: of football that could be conceived. From a spectator’s standpoint, football certainly ran! baseball in popularity, Can you conceive of 80,000 baseball fans braving the chill and discomfort of a wintry Novem: ber afternoon to watch any baseball game? Can you imagine 50,000 spec- tators standing for an hour and a half in a drenching downpour of rain to see a baseball game? Fifty thousand did that last year to see the Haryard-Yale game. % If Illinois and Notre Dame could haye played this season it is a safe bet that 200,000 would be willing to pay from $2,50 to $5.00 to see the game. It is doubtful that 100,000 would pay the same money to see any baseball game, It is a strange hold that football has taken on the American public. At least ninety per cent of the spec- tatora at a bas | game know what it is all about. Compared to the general run of baseball fans, the ordinary football fan 1s woefully deficient in know- ledge of anything but the basest fun- damentals, The ordinary football fans know what a touchdown is and how much it counts, what a field goal is and how much a anafety counts. He doesn't know what all the penalties are for and he doesn't care, He is satisfied to see his team make touchdowns and kick goals, Consider also that 60 per cent of the fans who attend all the home- town games know the players. They can pick them out, m to the youngest rookie on the bench with- out the help of a score card. ‘The football fan doesn’t know any of the players in the majority of cases. The numbers are not accur- ate and the score cards are useless. In the Army-Notre Dame game at New York thie fall, the regular Notre Dame varslty was announced in the programs and no notification of a change was given, Late in the first period an entire team was structures, This is perhaps cor- | (DON'T S! WHY WE THE INTERSECTIONAL GAME AND EFFECT ON POPULARITY OF GRID and then it was made known that a team of substitutes had been started nd that the regulars were not in the game until the blanket change had been made. Even in the press box it was not known that the regu- lars weren't in from the beginning Football has made its most amaz- ing growth in the middle west be- cause athletic officials in that sec- tion are concerned about the fans. They go out of thelr way to make the customers comfortable and the system of announcing and keeping track of the game is perfect. gfattahaer ee sscts, 2 aci TIGERS MEET YALE TODAY IN GRID CLASSIC PRINCETON, N, J.,. Nov. , 15.— (By The ociated \Press).—Foot- ball’s most ancient rivals, Princeton and Yale, meet here today in the semi-final everit of the “Big Three” championship. Yale, winner of the “Big Three" title, together with the eastern intercol'egiate + champton- ship, in 1923, has a record unblem- ished by defeat, while Princeton has seen its standards lowered by Notre Dame.
