SPORTS. Both Jockeys Confident of NEITHER RIDER FIGURING ON HAVING AN EASY TIME American Admits Opposition Is Sirong—Britisher Believes His Mount Will Come From Behind to Win International Event. BY EARL SANDE, America’s Leading Jockey (As Told to G. F. T. Ryall of the New York World.)

Without passing judgment on either of the horses—lI have never scen Zev or My Own—I feel that the race will be better for having as the American representative the horse originally selected. If My Own had been substituted there would have been the feeling on my part that I was riding against an alternate, whether or not he is as good or a better horse. And I am glad Sande is to ride him. I've met Sande. He's a very nice lad. I am glad that Zev's condition will ! permit him to make a real race. I} realize from what I have been told | that Zev is a good, fine mudder, and that this will help him. But Pupyr\h" s a good horse, and needs no special condition of the track to help him. Our English tracks are turf. They are slower than your American tracks. Papyrus is used to slow go- ing and he can run on a fast, dry| track, too. 5 | Today will be the biggest day of my twenty years of racing as a jockey.

Today 1 may be racing before 100,- 000 people. If your American crowds are anything like ours at home it will be exciting enough in the stands Think of what it must be te the jockey. To me the thrilling moment is when you canter down to the barrier and hear the roar of the crowd. It al- ways reminds me of the sea bounding against our English shore. It seems bit of threat—the threat of indiffer- ence for the jockey who is up on loser. But at the break my excitement leaves me. I am so completely in the race that I forget the crowds. My horse and I talk together. We don't hear any one elsc. Sometimes on the stretch when we've been out in front and finish _eased up I have caught the vell, “Come on, Steve.” But during most of my races T hear it only dully almost not at all. It Is after the race—when I've won—that I get the biggest thrill. It is then the cheers me very happy. Even when I lose there Is a thrill in that moment for me. I don't mind hearing crowds cheer the other lad. T've had my share. Belleves in Hix Mount.

He talks to me and I talk to him. 1 think he was glad to see me when I gave him his workout. Papyrus will give me all he has. That will be enough, I think. It is all any horse can do.

Athletic Events Special Dispatch to The Star. CHAMPAIGN, 1l Rising above the rich, country southwest of the twin citles of October Urbana and Champalgn, and dominating | itself, as in some other stadia, all the landscape for miles around, the great memorial stadium of the Univer- sity of Iliinois is rapidly taking shape. By November 3, date of the “homecom- [ sodded with blue-grass only as long it |a80 as mid-summer, and ing game" this year with Chicago, will be occupled by 55,000 people. Soon thereafter it can “superstadium,” double this size can find seats when the structure has been fully completed. Claims that from the standpoint both of great capacity and of a high degree of ornamentation it will surpass all pre- vidus stadia in this country seem to be well founded. A correspondent of The Star recently was personally conducted throughout its vast spuces by George Huff, director of athletics at the Uni- versity of Illinofs, and Clarence J. Rose Dery, secretary of the stadium com- mittee, WIIl Seat Over 100,000, The two sides, each double-decked, will be Anished first. The completion of the curve at the south end will bring the capacity up to 90,000, and the north end can be filled in later when needed, with a consequent increase to well over 100.000. The stadium is of steel and concrete, sheathed with red brick and ornamented with elaborate stone trim, conforming generally to the adaptation of Georgian architecture seen in the newer univer- sity buildings Other similar buildings approach this one in capacity, notably, the Ohio State stadium, the Yale bowl and the great adium’ out in California, but the Il- h0is structure will possess a number of features not found elsewhere. ample, the portions of most, if not all, such buildings that are behind and below the seats are fllled with pillars, arches and buttresses. Here, however, the rearmost steel supporting columns never reach the ground, but at a height of about thirty feet are interrupted and replaced by horizontal bridge trusses. This_gives, under both east and west stands, great covered halls, 400 feet long by fifty wide, for practice space, student assembles,” basket ball courts, ete. To enable spectators to reach the up- per decks without confusion and with little effort, four tremendous ramp tow- ers at each corner will contain the necessary complicated network of in- clined planes, together with offices, dressing rooms, heating Mlant, and even & cozy apartment for the custodian. At the point where the truss work intervenes a wide promenade gallery is to run completely around the outer wall anad will be ornamented with a double row of double Doric columns, each dedicated to a University of II- lois man who sacrificed his life in the Provisions for Press. The greatest care will be taken of the newspaper men assigned to the import- ant conference games.

Answered by GLEN “POP” WARNER Foot ball conch, University of Plttx- burgh for past eight years. Teams un- defeated five of eight years. Former athletic director Carlisle Indians. Sue- | cessful coach for twenty-elght years. * ¥ ok % | . The proper way to shift the ball is to push the ball across the body while grasping one end of it with the hand which originally held the ball and grasp it with the free arm as the shift is being made. The shift should never be made when in a mass of players because one arm is likely to be jerked away during the shift and result in a fumble, When the runner is in the open field, shift- ing the ball quickly is advantageous in order to use the occupied arm to ward off a tackler, because a tackler will usually dart from the side on which the back carries the ball in order to avoid the stiff-arm. |1s Ohlo State and Illinois, respectively, will be the gage oy which their chances for the title will be meas- ured.

Brad- ley declined to name the purchase price, but said the report of $66,000 was a fclose guess.” How Foot Ball Is Played By SOL METZGEI OST teams go stale from over- work. Coaches pound players so hard during some seasons in an effort to smooth out wrinkles and correct mistakes that the men get sick and tired of the game and are unable to play it with any pep. Teams are more likely to’ go stale today THE QUESTION. What makes the teams go stale toward the end of a season? from overwork than they were before the open game became a reality. This is due to the fact that speed is the basis of all successful play to- day, whereas power used to be. Pop Warner once told us of going out west to coach when he first be-. gan his career. He was with the “Cornhuskers” of Iowa. He took the team somewhat after the season had started and found & lemon on his hands. The previous coach had over- worked his men. Pop got a licking right off. He wisely decided to rest the men, rather than to work them in the hope of correcting faults. After this rest they played a harder oppo- nent and the vim they put into their play more than offset their faults. As a result they won. Probably more judgment is required of the coach In the matter of keeping a team In condition than in any other part of his job. Players have to be keen mentally as well as physicall . / to give their best efforts. Men who are overworked soon grow sick of the sight of a football and a slump is sure to result. The teams which usuai- ly slump are those which have lost a game or two and are then worked extremely hard to shape up for a contest immediately thereafter. No amount of talk or instruction can put them in a happy frame of mind. Some coaches think that the best way to rally a team after a defeat is to get them away from foot ball for a few days. Others believe the better method is to have light practice. En- couragement, rather than condemna- tion, is needed at this stage of de- velopment. The best plan to follow is to lean toward the side of too little practice, rather than too much, (Copyright, 1923.) D. C, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1923.

Robert M. Thompson. president of the Amer Olympic committee, who has just salled for | home after attending to some of the ! details of the forthcoming interna- tional games here The colonel and 1 bodvguard _were salling Nile from Khartum at a time when the river was very low and their paddle whee was forced to stop many time a rvise in the on occastons the colonel, who travel: without his golf clubs, would alight on the shore, accompanied by his Sudanese valet, and play @ few holes, natives | setting up poles surmounted by red handkerchi at varying distances to mark the improvised holes. T)_v-- colonel and the black boy then would drive over the natural sand bunkers, | and the man from Timbuctoo devel- oped his game until he could glve the white man a very good fight in- deed The other natives soon caught on to the game and after a few da the colonel noticed that they gambling on every hole. After a: particularly brilliant drive over 1lit- tle wooded oasis the colonel was an- noyed at not beins able to find his ball. The search was long and arduous until he saw_ one of the natives, who he knew had been bet- ting heavily against him—at about 10 cents a hole—slinking away, limp- ing. Like a flash the colonel was upon him, shaking him violently until the little pellet dropped to the sand The gambler had quietly stepped on the ball and “palmed” it under his big toe. During the last da of the trip any prospective member of the gal- lery iIntending to follow the game was requested to wear shoes. YET, IT WAS A GOOD LIE, EITHER WAY YOU TAKE IT old story is n Sudanese down th these never ‘A new version of an told as follo: Jones said to his golf opponent, Brown, “You know that marshy bit you get into if you fail to clear the wall at the sixth? 1 was in there in 3 yesterday, and when I got up to my ball it was slowly sinking in the mud. But suddenly it} began to rise again until it was sit- ting up beautifully teed. A puddock was pushing it up with its nose.” “Well, what of it?" asked Brown. “You must admit it was a jolly good lie, old man!" was the answer. N ARBOR, Mich., October 20.—The University of Michigan and University of Ohio elevens are as adequately prepared for their as it is possible for two teams to be of the two outfits he has a strong great game of 1923 will be very closely con- oring glance upon the Wolverines it en. “Indeed, there would seem to be that the smiles of the fickle arbiter {of destiny may rest upon the Scarlet and Gray banners of Ohio when days when nothing goes wrong, when evervthing goes right and every man, gives to the extreme limit of ability Michiga do not regard that contest as having expressed the actual relative merits of the two out fits.

Upon its varsity eleven the Scarlet and Gray has elght men who werc regulars in 1922, and, as an indlcatior of the way things have been gol t C , it should be pointed out hat two of the 1922 regulars have been unable to make this year's com bination. Glancing over the varsity squad one finds the names of sixteer players in various positions who wor their letters last autumn.

Gorrill, at left end, is accounted a far better wing man than the man whose place he took. _And so it goes Dr. Wilce_characteristically, Is say Ing nothing about the prospects, but the manner in which the team came from behind lest Saturday and tied up a 17-10-3 score made Ly Colga in the first half, pleased him im- mensely. and he would be justified in reposing all sorts of confidence in & fighting outfit of that sort.
