ENTRANT HAS MADE LOW SCORES IN PRACTICE Registers 68 and 69 in Tests for Event That Begins Today—Sarazen, Title Holder, Is Off Form and Not Picked to Repeat. BY W. R. McCALLUM.

Gene Sarazen’s title, which the little New York pro has annexed for the last two years, hangs in the balance. far from a top-he. In fact, very much so, for he is v favorite to repeat. He is not hitting the ball as well as six or eight of the other sharpshooters in the impressive field, among them our Leo Diegel of Washington. .

Perhaps during three seasons of study and effort he had visualized just such a moment ag that which arose when the Orang® and Black, standing al- most upon its own line, had to play the ball. If not that, he displayed an amazing power for quick analysis. Disregarding a tradition which holds that the battle plans are the property of backfield men, and a lineman must remain in his position (the reason for which is obvious), he stepped quickly ack to where Gorman, at quarter, and Cleaves, at fullback, were consid- ering the next move, moment of whispering and he again was in his position.

George Cummings, pitcher of the Wentz-Olney team of the Beddows Northeast League, has left here for Detroit, where he will join the Na- tionals. One of the Washington scouts favor- ably reported Cummings to Manager Bucky Harris, who lost no time in signing him. Cummings is a left- handed hurler, aged nineteen years, and weighs about 150 pounds. He has pitched six or eight one-hit games this season and has every promise of a bright future.

C, playing behind the line, had kicked and had his kick blocked, Chicago might have fallen on it for a touch- down. Thirdly, if Chicago had broken through the Princeton defense and caught him in motion, it would have gained a touchdown. Fourthly, a fumble might have ylelded the same result. Finally, it he had been forced to ground the ball, the Maroon would have scored a safety. Odds in Favor of Plan. These were possibilities, not prob- abilities, but they had to be taken into copsideration. On the other hand a forward pass, in additicn to offer- ing a fine chance for a gain, presented slight opportunity for mishap. Chi- cago so plainly expected a punt that a pass offered every element of sur- prise—and surprise is one of the greatest of strategies. The odds were that the Maroon would be caught so flatfooted that its interception would be quite unlikely. If the ball were grounded nothing would be lost ex- cept a down. The strategy Gray suggested to Gorman and Cleaves needed but slight elaboration to them. Its potentialities were clegr. Here is how the play was expected to work out; naturally when Cleaves, ten yards behind Princeton’s line, got the ball as though for a punt, Lempe { the Chicago left end, and Fletcher, left tackle, would charge forward in an effort to block the Kick. As they did, Gorman would slip between them aad behind the Chicago line so as to recelve Cleaves' pass. The latter, on getting the ball, would run ten vards to the right, giving Gorman sufficient time to get to his position. Crum (Princeton right half) would block POLO TEAMS CHANGE FOR SECOND BATTLE With NEW shifted YORK.

Gray (Princeton left end) would give Gorman inter- ference against H. Thomas (Chicago right half) on the other side, while, behind our line, Euwer (Princeton left half) would stop Dickson (Chicago right end). If all went well, Gorman would meet no opposition until he en- countered John Thomas (Chicago full- back). Lven if downed in hix tracks he would have made a distinct gain. Afterward there would be opportunity for other plays and if these failed a punt under more favorable circum- stance. The thing went through as if infal- lible. Cfeaves' dash to the right pro- duced just the degree of uncertainty in the Maroon that had been hoped for. Gorman penetrated to the 20-yard line in time to pluck an unerring 30-yard pass from Cleaves out of the air. Stout and Gray had given him perfect inter- ference, so that. as he turned and dashed onward there were between him and the enemy's goal line only two Maroons, John Thomas and Pyott, the quarterback. St Arm Clears Path. ‘These men were standing on the 40-yard line. Both moved forward, Thomas meeting Gorman at the 30-yard line, but the 156-pound Tiger successfully stiff-armed the 181-pound Maroon and continued on. For a moment it seemed the way to a touchdown might be clear. But the encounter with Thomas had slowed him down and Pyott, giving chase, brought him down from the rear on the 40-yard line. That play came with only 10 min- FIVE GRIDIRON AIDES NAMED AT HARVARD CAMBRIDGE, Mass,, September 15.— ~ Appointment of five assistant coaches for the Harvard varsity foot ball squad in addition to second team and freshman coaches has been an- nounced.

Nobody thought it pos- sible for the Orange and Black to overhaul and puss the Maroon at that hour. But, as a matter of fact, some quality was taken from the Maroons which hitherto had been ex- clusively theirs. At the same time the Tigers gained something which they had lacked. They threw them- selves into an offensive that couldn't be stopped. After an exchange of punts, Chicago fumbled in midfield. A Tiger picked up the ball and chased all the way down the field for a touchdown. A few minutes later, after a series of great plunges and runs, another touchdown was chalked up for the Orange and Black. And the score stood 21 to 18 in faver of nceton Now mark the justice of events.

Coming back with desperate determination, it mixed forward passes with line piunges by John Thomas until the ball finally reached Princeton’s 2-foot line.

And “the most sensational intersectional battle of history,” was the comment of a third. It was all of these.
