The team, which is being spon- sored by Fairbanks and Dawson people, is to be composed about half and half of players from those interior cities. Promotion of the tour was started by Dr. L. L. Hufman, a dentist of Fairbanks. Guarantees have been received from clube in the States and Can- ada which removes worry over the financial status of the tour. The team will be known as the “Fair-| banks-Dawson Polar Bears.” Games have already been sched- uled with amateur teams in Seattle, Portland, Vancouver, Calgary, Ed- monton, Winnipeg, St. Paul, Min- neapolis, Marquette, Ann Arbor, Houghton and Detroit. It is also barely possible that the team may | go to Europe as there is a tentative offer from Paris. The team, which will leave Fair- banks and Dawson the first of next month, may fly out and sail south fr Juneau. About 14 men are expected to make the trip.

And the open and above-board policy for outright payment to players through ‘“athletic scholar- ships” at the University of the South — Sewanee’s official name— has athletic and educational circles of the South buzzing. The plan instituted this year is focusing almost as much attention on Sewanee as the school enjoyed when its Tigers defeated five op- ponents within five days more than three decades ago. There is no denial of the finan- cial backing of the, Sewanee foot- ballers. The regulations laid down for recipients of pay envelopes are clearly stated. However, the university declincs‘ to make public the sums allotted | for gridiron talent. They are under-|century and up until |stood to cover all expenses incident Tigers were called the scourge of to school attendtnce—tuition, room, board, incidentals. Following the Southeastern Con- ference action lifting the bars on subsidization, Sewanee's Board of Regents debated the subject furi- ously and wound up by granting 32 “athletic scholarships.” Make Good—Or Else Football coaches may recommend anyone they want to, but the fac- ulty committee in charge of all scholarships must give its approval before they are granted. Just as a classroom star must live up to his prep school athletic reputation — else his stipend may be taken away. The regents announced their ac- tion in a formal statement, then stood by for the reaction from educators and athletic authorities. Bishop Walter Mitchell of Ari- zona on a visit to Sewanee con- demned the practice roundly. “Those favoring or condoning this shameful plan say we must have a winning football team for which all of us can cheer and on which all of us can win money,” said the Bishop. “In God’'s name,” he added, “when did this university reach so a standard set by secularized col- leges? “We are tired of losing games tired of losing money. We do not have to win games, but we do have to save our souls.” ! The Bishop blamed the regents’ s “Shameful Plan” action on a relatively small but militant alumni bloc. No Improvement Yet Sewanee hasn’t won a conference game in five years and lacked the material to make a serious bid for the title in the last 15. This year is little different from ! the last several. There are 25 men on the squad, few better than first [Lm\» prep school players. | | But Harry (Hec) Clark, young jcoach of the Tigers, sees the day when they will regain much of | their football prestige. | | “We are using 16 scholarships |this year,” Clark explains, “and |the other 16 next year. In about |three years we'll have them rotat-| 1ing so we can feel the effect of | better material. I know we'll never r topnotch with only 32 paid players, but we'll be in a contend- ing position and not a pushover.” | In the last decade of the 19th 1920, the | Southern gridirons. The squad in those days numbered only about 120 players, but they took their rivals as they came, winning usual- ly by lopsided scores. The high mark was reached |when the Tigers played five games {in five days, all away from home, | (and won them decisively.

Iowa won 20 straight grid games between November 6, 1920, and October 20, 1923. Fourteen of Towa’s victims over the stretch were Big Ten elevens. SALESMANSHI SPORT SLANTS The Yale football team reflects |the personality of its irrepressible !cnmam, Larry Kelley, judging from the manner in which the Bulldog |gridders outsmArted Cornell, Penn- |sylvania and Navy to run up three victories in their first three starts. The boys in blue took advantage |of the inexperienced Cornell play- ers and dug deep into their bag of tricks to win. Against a potentially powerful Pennsylvania eleven, Yale looked like a truly smart team, out- | witting the Quakers at every turn. There have been some attempts to account for Penn's failure to take advantage of its several scoring the Red and Blue giants failed be- | haps. and to make the Quakers play right into their hands. Yale's victory over Navy was scored in a typical Kelley manner. Just when it appeared that the! Middies were destined to send Yale| down to defeat, Kelley popped up with a play, intentional or other- wise, that changed the entire com- plexion of the contest. Navy was leading the Eli eleven | 7-6 late in the third period. Tony | Mott of Yale got off a booming| punt which Sneed Schmidt, Navy | back, fumbled on his own 25-year line. Schmidt and Bob Carey, Eli end, were rolling around trying to zet their fingers on the bounding| ball when along came Kelley to kick the oval out of their reach ind toward the Navy goal line. The | officials must have been convinced | that Kelley's act was accidental or they would have ruled it a foul. It is anything but “cricket” to kick intentionally a loose ball. Navy Wonders Why Kelley picked up the rolling ball three yards from the enemy goal ine and carried it over. No score was allowed, but ball was given to Yale on the 3-yard marker. In two plays Yale was over the line; and enjoying the margin which was to prove sufficient for victory. | Once again Yale walked off with the long end of the score while the foe wondered how and why it was beaten. But, simply more than likely, it because Larry Kelley One of the tricks the Yale eleven used in trouncing the inexperienced Cornell eleven was the ancient Statue of Liberty play. The inci- dent was discussed in a recent fan- Man Waves Battleships to Stop — Tries to Sell Fish CANTON, O, Nov. 5. — When Midshipmen James M.

The man paddled alopgside one of the ships, whose officers thought him in distress, held up two fish in his hands and yelled: “Do you want to buy these?” e Hen Worries Flock; Crows After Lays Egg SIOUX CITY, Ia, Nov. 5—Mr. and Mrs. Henry Groen, Olivet, 8.

S. U. by one touchdown at the close of the 1934 season,” said Ducote. “With the score tied and about one minute left to play, Tennessee pulled a fake kick from a modified Statue of Liberty, from which a long pass developed. This special formation had been purposely shown the L. S. U. team several times during the game, only with the side back taking the ball on an end run to his left. Each time Tennessee was thrown for a loss. “At the most opportune time, Tennessee faked an end run. Vaughn, the Volunteer passer, in- stead of giving the ball to the man faking the end run, held the ball behind his back until the whole L. S. U. team had passed him in pursuit of the side back, who had cleverly faked the end run, and then nonchalantly made a long pass to Rose, the Tennes- see end who had pulled up in the right corner of the end zone. “Not a single Louisiana player was within 15 yards of Rose when he caught the ball.” } ——————— Hadad was one of the chief dei- fes of ancient Syria and Assyria.
