There, under the mous “golden sun” of California and amidst the brilliance of the famous Tournament of Roses. Hugo Bezdek ttany Lions will uphold eastern gridiron honors against the Univer- sity of Southern California, selected to represent the west. It will be a grimly determined Penn State squad that makes the trip to the coast. Fighting off the bitter old of the past two weeks, those Nittany Lions have gone about their practice session with midseason vim and punch, and their fine spirit has {more than pleased the coache: There has been no drag to the post- season practice, for the players see in the California game a chance to win back lost laurels. There is no overconfidence in the Penn State camp. There is no idea that the game on New Year day is going to be casy. Nor is there any feeling that Penn State does not have a chance, as one might be led to be- lieve by some reports from the west. Each Blue and White gridder is filled with the determination to show Coach | Hugo Bezdek that he can make good individually and that the Penn State team can come back despite defeats at_the hands of Penn and Pitt Those who will be selected by Coach Bezdck to make the trip probably | will be: Ends, Frank, Artelt.

The Canton team is expected to be the most impressive of those brought | here this season to wage war with the local pros. It has not felt the sting of defeat this year, and as today’s game is its last of the campaign the Ohio eleven can be counted upon to “shoot” for victory. The Canton Bulldogs, by virtue of thefr 19-to-0 win over the Toledo Maroons, piloted by Red Roberts of Center College fame, last week, are claiming the world profes- sional championship. Their line-up | gives an idea of the team's strength. I { _There are four members of Walter | Camn's all-American family in the | regular eleven. Right Guard Osborne | and .Quarterback Robb of Penn State and Right Tackle Henry and Right End Carroll of Washington and Jef- ferson were considered by Camp the best of their day in th positions. Left End Chamberlain and Teft | { Tackle Lyman, Nebraskans, and Left | Guard Taylor. Ohio State. were all- western selections, and Left Halfback McQuade. Georgetown, an all-South Atlantic choice. Others in the first eleven are Speck, for years a pro | player, center: Smythe, Center Col- lege. right halfback, and Elliott, Lafayette, fullback. Against this formidable array of talent the Washington management will send practically the same team that has represented this city through the greater part of the season. Bleler is expected to start at left end. Crouch at left tackle, McDonald at left guard, Hathaway at center, Van Meter at right guard. Turner at right tackle, Ptak at right end, Walson at quar- terback, Leighty at left halfback. Wheelock at right halfback and Gar- diner at fullback | i More tl xtous to demonstrate what they consider their real power, the Mohawks are primed for today’'s conflict with the Knickerbockers. Since they were barely beaten by the Mercurys in a game that cost them the championship held through seven vears, the Mohawks have contended that they played far below their regular form the match. Since. they have tried to make good that contention. = Last week they gave Georgetown Athletic Club, a team that early in the season held them to a scoreless tie, a sound drubbing, and today they want to hand the Knicks similar treatment. But the Knicks, of course, are not agreeable to taking a_ trouncing. Not so long ago they played a 0-0 game with the chgm- pions, and believe what they learned in that fray will help them much this afternoon. | While thelr elder brethren are en- deavoring to stage a come-back, the Mohawk Preps will attempt to show the Stantons just where they belong in the 145-pound class. For several weeks the Preps have claimed -the championship in this division, and have made good with a vengeance, too. Recently, along came the Stantons, who declared themselves just as good, if not better, than the Little Indians. 8o the latter decided to give the Stan- i 1 i HOW BURNING TREE CLUBHOUSE WILL APPEAR WHEN COMPLETED Peo. of the capital WEST VRGINA GRDNER T0 BEG TRP TESDAY MORGANTOWN, December 16.—Sel- dom if ever has this little city been in a turmoil of excitement as it isj during these days of preparation for the 1st-West foot ball game at San Calif.. on Christmas day. ngementa for the trip to the Pa- coast to meect the Gonzaga Unit ty eleven have been completed and mountaineer party of twenty-five the will leave here late Tuesday afternoon.

BARS LIGHT ATHLETES FROM OHID WESLEYAN OBERLIN, Ohio, December 16.—Eight Ohio Weslevan University athletes have been declared permanently ineligible to participate in Ohio conference athletic activities for ‘“receiving $250 annually from an athletic loan fund,” it has been announced by E. A. Miller, secretary of the conferenca. Among those named are Olan Smith, 1922 foot ball captain, and Lingal Win- ters, captain-elect of the 1923 eleven. The plan referred to was one by which students, including athletes, were grant- ed loans for which they gave notes and agreed to pay interest until payment after graduation. COLUMBUS, Ohio, December 16.— “‘Ohio Wesleyan does not admit that these men "are ineligible,” George Gauthier, Ohio Wesleyan athletic direc- tor, said when informed that eight mem- bers of the Wesleyan foot ball squad had been barred.

The board will meet again tomorrow morning at 9:30 o'elock, at which time its verdict will be announced. Plumpton, an enlisted man in the Navy, was accused by.S. Duncan Bradley, president of the Western High School Home and School Asso- ciation, of having engaged in pro- fessional prize fighting before enter- ing Central. Under existing scholas- tic sport regulations, a student who at any time has engaged in profes- sional athletics is ineligible to pa ticipate in interscholastic sports. Attorney Paul E. Lesh, a graduate of the class of 1903 at Central, repre- sented Plumpton at the hearing. Robert A. Maurer, principal of Cen- tral High School, it is understood, presented evidence which he collected to clear the student and the school of the charges. - GRID TEAMS TO CLASH. - Stanton Junlors and the Mackin A.

FER % 1s claimed to be entirely new in golf course construction, and which should make for vastly better fairways, is the plan adopted and already put into execution of building up the fairw. from a point 150 yards from the tee to the putting green, along the stand- ard specifications for building putting Breens. Another feature claimed to be unique will be that from a prop- erly placed tee shot the foreground. front edge, center and back of ever: green is visible. This feature w climinate the blind holes =0 common on American golf courses, which baf- fle @ stranger to the course. From a badly placed tee shot, however, the golfer at Burning Tree will find him- self in severe difficulty. The firm of Colt, MacKenzie & Ali- son of London, England, was €ngag- | ed to design the links under S the ‘most ‘severe specifieations that have yet been written for a golf course. The greens were vegetatively planted with carpet bent and have made substantial progress. The TR Pane Gourse architects have completed Another thing about the cours which ite sponsors hold will eliminate an unpleasant feature at some golf courses will be a large practice ground for golfers. A Epecial fair- way by 280 yards has been pro- vided with a practice tee that will accommodate six players. At some clubs facilities for practice are ve limted, and show in the game of the members. A puttng green for the practice fairway has been built on the same specfications as the other greens, so that all the conditions on the real course have been reproduced on the practice course. A complete water system for water- ing fairways and putting greens has been installed, with a pool holding 2,000,000 gallons of water feeding from a stream having a flow of 4 000 gallons per day. Development of the caddies at the Burning Tree Club will be one of the imporant features of the chub. Ilach caddie, according to Marshall Whit- latch, assistant secretary, and one of the founders, will undergo special training in some line of work con- nected with golf. Some will learn clubmaking, some will learn to teach golf, others will learn course. con- struction work, and others wil] learn course upkeep. A caddie master thoroughly exprienced and versed in his profession will be in charge of the boys. Founders of the Burning Tree Club believe they will have a course, when fully completed, which will be the finest test of golf in the country, with the best balance of shots of any course. There has been favorable criticism and the founders profess to have every prospect of having pro- duced the kind of course they started out to build. | i | f | D VETS LOSE PRIZE BY A NARROW MARGIN lagree that the first CERTAIN FUNDAMENTALS OBSERVED BY ALL STARS Champions Agree That Stiff Left Arm Is Biggest Fac- tor to Prevent Body-Swaying—Divided as to Open and Closed Stance.
