ASHE RAYED o &y ALAN GOUL Albie Booth broke into the fooi- ball spotlight at Yale as a running and kicking quarterback two years ago. This year “little boy blue” has blossomed forth as a passing and blocking halfback under the ex- | pert tutelage of Benny Friedman, ASSOCIATED D~ IATED PRESS essential to big league hockey— and this, my dear Watson, is ele- mentary—there is no chance of a |change in the playoff system. The national league is down to an eight club circuit for the 1931- 32 season, following the withdraw- |al of Ottawa and Philadelphia, but CHESBRO DIES Onetime S_;E)all Pitcher | Passes Away as Re- i sult Heart Attack ' 'CONWAY, Mass., Nov. 7—“Happy Jack” Chesbro, onetime spitball pitcher of the New York Americans died suddenly yesterday as the formerly of Michigan, and Bucky |six teams will have a chance to re§ult of a heart attack on his O'Connor, formerly of Notre Dame. get into the Stanley Cup series chicken farm here. It is one of the most unusual alterations in the somewhat gen- eral readjustment at Yale this year. Booth’s all-around aptitude on the gridiron has never been ques- tioned, but it is a tribute to the Eli captin’s skill that he has read- ily adjusted himself into a new] scheme of attack. When it came to replacing Albie at quarterback, Friedman's first 4choice was Dud Parker. This youngster showed signs of devel- opment into a first rate field gen- via the playoffs for first, second and third place -clubs division. The regular season, therefore, “doesn't mean a great deal so far as seitling the world’s champion-' |ship is concerned. Only the tail- |enders in each four-club division will be out of the playoff money. The best argument in favor of the system is that it keeps the rest fof the teams scrapping in the event | |there is a runaway in either or |both divisions of the circuit. | | Otherwise there is no good rea- in each Chesbro was 56 years old.

BOBBY O'HARA BETS DECISION SAN DIEGO, Cal, Nov. 7— eral last year and he .quickly 5% why a series between the di- Bobby O'Hara, Chicago welter, won caught the eye of the All-America quarterback. Friedman was given a free hand by Head Coach Mal Stevens in making his selection as well as in organizing the Eli aerial attack. Booth has improved at least 50 per cent as a passer under Fried- *man’s coaching. His tosses didnt have much snap last season and the year before, but he can hit the target now almost as consist- ently as Harvard's Barry Wood. Maybe Booth's revenge, if any, against Harvard and Wood /this November will be gained through the air. It will be a good trick if Albie can do it.
