'SPORTS. Na STARS OF SEVEN NATIONS PLAYING AT PHILADELPHIA Withdrawal of Japanese and Australian Players omewhat Mars International Aspect of Event—Tilden Favored to Keep Title. BY W. H. HOTTEL. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON D. C, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1923, ILLINOIS FOUR SETS NEW SWIM RECORD NEWARK, N. J., September 10.—The American swimming record for the 880-yard relay was broken at Olympic Park yesterday by the Illinois Ath- letic Club team competing in the na- tional champlonship event againkt the Boys' Club of New York, the only other competitors. The Chicago swim- mers made the distance in 10 miuutes 52-5 seconds, breaking the record of 10 minutes 34 seconds held by the Los Angeles Athletic Club.

Tilden, who was bern and reared within a stone’s throw of the scene of activitics, was begun here this afternoon. While the stars from many lands are striving for what may without contradiction be called the world title, Big Bill, who has placed the past three championships to his credit, is picked to repeat. In fact, the critics feel certain that it will be the same old story of Tilden and Little Bill lohnston of California fighting it out, with the result the same as it was in 1920, 21 and A new championship bowl has been placed in competition. Tilden hav- 8 carried off the trophy by his third successive triumph last year. It was the most coveted award that has been placed in the collection of any ennis player in this country. It had been in competition for thirteen years, and on it, in addition to Tilden’s, were the names of W. A. Larned, Maurice McLoughlin, Norris Williams and Johnston, each twice, and R.

Answered by MANUEL ALONSO Famous Spanixh player, easily the semsation of the 1923 tennis season. “Best European player today, pos- sible world champlon in 1924, says Tilden. Defeated Tilden in Illinois state champlonship mateh in July. Runner-up to Tilden In numerous 1923 matches, Including national clay court champlonship. There are two different methods. One is playing softly and placing, making your opponent run back and forth and finally catching him flat- footed by putting the ball twice to the same position. (See Dia- gram A) The other, which I prefer, is by playing hard at angles. You do i this from the back court with long |drives to the corners, then run in to the net to finish it. If you suc- ceed in getting up to the net after having your opponent running back and forth after your long drives, |it is almost a sure point. See Dia- igram B.) (Copyright, BANNOCKBURN WINS OVER W.

Answered by KNUTE ROCKNE Coach of foot ball, Notre Dame Uni- versit: Famous for his fighting teams, beaten only twice in last four years. e Training should be along the same lines as for any game involving strength, skill, speed and endur- ance. The first two weeks should be confined to moderate work. For the next four weeks the work should be harder, but never so hard as to leave a player exhausted. After about six weeks of work a player should be in good shape and should | work only enough to keep in shape. No player should indulge in hard scrimmage until he has been out about two weeks. A player should not eat between meals, nor should he indulge in alco- holic stimulants, tobacco, coffee ex- icept possibly in the morning, fried foods, pies, pastry or cocoa. The eating and drinking should be along common-sense lines, with the indi- vidual man_looking out for those articles which do not agree with him. Always be careful of overwork. This is particularly true regarding scrimmage. (Copyright, AUTO RACE TO SALAMANO. By the Associated Press.

BY LAWRENCE PERRY. NY one of three Pacific coast foot ball eclevens seem to have a working chance to win the west coast conference champion- ship this year, California, the University of Washington and the University of Southern California form a natural triangle, whose sides at this writing appear almost equal. California has a certain prestige inherited from her exploits in the past few years, but where as last year it was conceded that the Bears would outclass all other gridiron combinations, this year nothing of the sort is admitted.

MANY SANDLOT GRIDDERS RESPOND TO EARLY CALL The University of California, in fine, loses seven veteran players, | ind today there is hardly a coach on the coast who is not whetting his knife in hope that it will be his privilege to take Andy Smith's scalp. Yet, despite the gaps in her ranks, the Blue and Gold stands better than an even chance of retaining her title. Having won three successive ehampionships, not a defeat having marred the record of his elevens, Andy Smith feels he is justified in attributing not a small part of his success to his system of coaching and training.

A resume of the prospects of the various coast institutions follows: CALIFORNIA—The loss of such stars as Muller, Nesbit, Berkey, Morrison, Clark, Dean and Gallagher would cripple almost any team. But there remain a wealth of material from last year's second eleven, several freshman stars and four veterans from the 1922 outfit. WASHINGTON — Enoch Bagshaw, former coach of the Everett High School which won the national inter- Scholastic title in 1920 will return to Washington for his third year. Vet- eran material abounds, Ziel and Wil- son standing out conspicuously. Gen- eral opinion inclines to the belief that the Huskies will have their best team since 1916 when they won the cham- plonship. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — Gus Henderson as usual is pessimistic over the outlook. Nome the less he cannot conceal an underlying satisfaction over prospects for the coming season While Snowy Baker, the line cracking back has been graduated, the two Andersons, Galloway and a lot of other sturdy veterans remain. There is no doubt the Southern California insti- tution will be strong. Indeed, if California is dethroned this season the Southerners will be the ones to do_the trick. ¢ STANFORD—The Cardinals are not putting In any claims for laurels, but they are preparing for the future, waiting for Glenn Warner to arrive Andy Kerr, who is filling the interim, faces the 1oss of some fine plavers, condition due in part to wielding of the faculty ax last spring. The big- gest problem lies in filling the gaps caused by the loss of de Groot. all- Pacific center, and Wilcox, backfield man. OREGON—The outlook is not par- ticularly rosy, although Coach Hunt- ington has a_generous supply of vet- erans. The Webfeet have not had a really formidable team since Hugo Bezdek left for Penn State. Scholastic ineligibility has deprived the team of the services of several good men, while veterans who are available are not of high class. WASHINGTON STATE—Albert the old Notre Dame star, writes that this year's outfit should be better than that of 1922. SANTA _CLARA — Has changed coaches, Ed Klienholz succeeding Buckingham. The mission college ha s lost many veterans, and must buili pretty much anew. (Copyrigkt, 1923.)
