The crowds that left Washihgton for Baltimore by train, interarban and motor included most of the members of the cabinet, hundréda of members of congress here for the convening of that body next Mon- day, and a host of other officials. Leading the list were President and Mrs. Coolidge, who had arranged to leaye the White House shortly be- fore noon and motor to Baltimore to see their first Army-Navy game. The president and Mrs. Coolidge, with the members of their party, in accordance with custom, were as- signed a box during the first half on thé navy side—the haval acad- emy being the “home sehool” this year, and were to cross thé field during the intermission between halves to see the last two periods froin the army side. BALTIMORE, Md., Noy. 29. Mostly cloudy and colder weather With possibly snow flurries was the weather man's prediction of atmos: pherié conditions for this after. noon’s football classic. Rain fell heavily for an hour or so before daybreak but a shift of the wind from the south to north. west broké up the storm. The wind would hold about northwest the weather bureau said, with the temp- erature dropping from 43 this morn- ing to about 36 for the game. —— M. E.

By HENRY L. FARRELL. (United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Nov. 28 (United Press),—Details of the Cozy Dolan- Jimmy O'’Connéll scandal, for which the baseball public has been asking since the attempted bribe of a Philadelphia player was made known, probably will remain buried with some other mysteries connect- ed with other scandals. As long as Commissioner Laridis does not Volunteer some information as to his reasons for accepting only a part of Jimmy O'Connéll's testi- mony, the details could bé foreed out only through court action. Some of the most interesting and most important angles of the 1919 White Sox scandal weré not madé public until Joe Jackson, one of the players, brought suit the Chicago club for back salary. Evidence was presented at that time that Charles Comisky, owner of the White Sox, had offered Jack- son a héW contract at an increased salary ‘after he had learned that Jackson and his. Confederates had taken money from the gamblers who wanted to fix the series. Jackson insists to this day that he didn't have a part in throwing any of the games, but the fact that he had taken money and that his name had been mentioned in the deal was no good reason for Comiskey to de- sire his presence on the club or to sive him an increase in pay. When Cozy Dolan. threatened to sue Commissioner Landis for a share of the world’s series money varded to the New York Giants and for $100,000 personal damages, it was hoped that some of the details would be forced out. Landis probably will atgue that the details are not important. If they are not important, why are they not made Known? If they are important, there are all the more reasons for making them public. For some reason Dolan seems to have abandoned the plan of seek: ing the restitution of his money and his good name in court, Little stock can be taken in the report around Broadway that the threat of a suit was just a bluff and that Dolan was bought off by the powers, FOOTBALL — QUESTIONS ADDRESS: Lawrence Perry, Special Football Correspondent. of the Casper Tribune, 814 World Building, New York.

(3) Team lines and ball is passed to quarter who passes to the end and the end passes to the last backfield man who goes through line. Is this play legal and what would it be termed? Answer.—(1) If the Ashland play- er in touching the ball forced it be- hind his goal line it was a safety. If the ball was going there anyway and the touching of {t did nat give it impetus then it was a touchback. (2) If the ball was passed forward it was a forward pass. But if pass- ed laterally or in the direction of the attacking team’s goal it was not a forward pass. (3) A ball may be passed any number of times and in any direc- tion except, forward. Only one for- ward pass may be thrown in each play, ‘ a 1 at Raaae Tt was recently dis¢losed that Ban Johnson, president of the American league, wanted to give Jackson and the White Sox gang their share of the award for winning second place in the 1920 pennant race rather than have the case thrown into court. Landis.and John Heydler, as well as the majority of the club owners of the two major leagues, were willing to have the White Sox ca#e throwh nto the courts, there is no reason to believe that they would buy off Do. lan, unless there are some agnies to the Dolan-O'Connell case that simply couldn't bé aired in public. The attitude that professional baseball is assuming in what looks to be tempt to gloss over the most it scandal, is not one that would di urage a skeptic’s hunch that there was a lot more to Jimmy ‘O'Connell’s conversation with Heinte Sand than was made public and that there were more behind O'Connell than Cozy Dolan, who didn't remem. ber a thing about the case. Landis-said that the investigation would be continued as long as any of them were alive, but from the progress that has been made public so far in the investigation it seems that the scandal will be dead long before any of those implicated will become even a risk for insurance. Only fragménts of the testimony taken when Landis . hurried from Chicago to quéstion the players have been made public. Landis told some of the things that O'Connell, Sand and Dolan had said. When Dolan told his story, a féw more details were madé khown. No one knows what Kelly, Young and Frisch told the commissioner that convinced him they were’ not involved. In jus tice to those players, the testimony should have been made known. They will not be removed entirely from suspicion until it is made known. ‘ae adiee tanta MIKE COLLINS.

(Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov, 29.— Pausing en route to various football gridirons where ‘Thanksgiving games were to be played, football Players and partisans of several un! versities foregathered in Atlanta and made of {t a clearing houre for football fact, rumor and report. At lunchéon at one of the leading Atlanta clubs, the writer met three football teams and their coaches, to- gether with alumni of a dozen south. ern institutions, There may be other southern cities where the very tang of football is in the air—there undoubtedly are—but certainly no community, north, east, south or west, which the writer has visited in the course of his gridironperegrina- tions. has shown greater enthusiasm for the autumn game or more ade- quate knowledge thereof than At tanta. Tt is the home of Georgia Tech and Oglethorpe; the University of Georgia is within easy reach and the population of this southern me- tropolis includés alumni groups of about every prominent seat 6f learn. ing the land over, Altho it lies a year away, the ab- sorbing topic of conversation is the resumption of football relations be- tween Georgia and Georgia Tech next fall, the beginning, everyone hopes, of a splendid. sportsmanlike rivalry that will go on through the years with ever growing accretions of that flavor which rises from tra dition. The writer has long advocated the playing of this game not only be- cause the two institutions are geo- graphical rivals but because the stu alumni are of the same T ay the game would ‘have been restored long ago had there not been fears that the high pitch of partisanship as between alumni of the two institutions would result in an atmosphere not conducive to the best interests of inter-collegiate sport in the south. Perhaps there was a time, when football was younger in Atlanta, when apprehensions of the sort were justified. But that time has passed. It is recognized there as everywhere in Dixie that above the question of merely winning football games is the higher jnterest of firm and en- during inter-collegiate friendship. This point was particularly empha sized upon the occasion of the recent visit of Vanderbilt to Atlanta, where the adherents of Tech proved most abundantly that their spirit of hos pitality and friendly fellowship was as warm and lavish in defeat ’as it could possibly have been under the stimulus of victory. Vanderbilt men departed from At- lanta thrilled and inspired by the treatment they reeeived there and that Nashville will take pattern when Tech visita the Vanderbilt sta- dium at some future time is fore- gone. In this way the finer metal of the sporting spirit is resolved, em- blematic of generous partisanship. NEWARK, N.
