Keady Due to Coach Marine Gridmen : Dempsey-Gibbons Bout on Coast Is Likely VERMONT MAN DECLARED CHOICE FOR QUANTICO JOB Has Proved Successful at Present Place and at Le- high—Baldwin, at Latter Institution, May Return to Duke, Formerly Trinity. BY H. C. BYRD. W ball squad. Vermont, will be the next HILE no official announcement has been made, it seems to be practically certain that Tom Keady, now at the University of coach of the Quantico Marines foot It has been known for some time that the choice of the Marines narrowed down to just two men, the other being Baldwin of Lehigh, and of the two the choice of Keady seems to have been made. Keady is old in_the gridiron game and should be the right type of man to head up the Marines’ squad. there to take up a contrdct at Vermont. He was at Lehigh for years, and left At both places he turned out just about as good teams as his material afforded. It was reported at one time that some man just out of college would coach the Quantico men, but the judg- ment of those in charge of foot ball in the service organization in getting a much older and experienced man undoubtedly is good. Men are play- ing on the Quantico squad who un- doubtedly know a lot more foot ball than any player just graduating from college, no matter how brilliant a performer that player may have been. It ix more than possible that Bald- win, who leaves Lehigh this year, may go back to Duke University, for- merly Trinity College. Baldwin was at that institution prior to taking up his duties at Lehigh, and it is under- stood that the Duke people are anx- fous to have him return to succeed Howard Jones, who has gone to the University of Southern California. Graduates of the Durham institution are accepting the more or less infor- leave-taking of Jones rather ilosophically. As a matter of fact. ym statements made to the writer 2 s whose teams played against Trinity last Fall, Jones did not show with this team anything that seemed to stamp him as out of the ordinary run of coaches. Down at the University of Georgia they have a very decided feeling that Spring practice is one of the best steps toward the development of good t ball. Director of Athletics Stege- man of that institution gave this as his_opinion spring foot ball is a great thing to develop a good system. I firmly believe that the practice we had for six weeks last year, during February and March, improvement last fall by our eleven team of last Fall, which held Yale to a 6-to-7 score, was developed dur- ing the latter part of the Winter and early Spring of the previous yea A University of Alabama alumnus last Fall became obsessed with the idea that the backfield of his school was not as well coached as the Uni- versity of Georgia backfield and con- sequently desired to hire a Notre Dame player to help out in that direction next season. Where he got the opinion, though, is almost impos- sible to imagine, us in the game from which he drew his comparison the University of Georgia backs gained & total of four first downs, while the Alabama backs made four touch- downs. The above paragraph calls to mind an incident of recent date which re- lated to alumni connections in foot ball. A certain Northern college which desired to form an alumni foot ball committee sent out & que: tionnaire to a great many institu- tions, asking what had been done along that line and what suggestions might be offered. The reply from one school went back. “We haven't any such committee and think we are better off without one.” All loeal college base ball squads, excepting George Washington, which is due to get back in the sport again, were out for long drills yesterday. Georgetown and Catholic University staged impromptu games, while Mary- land and Gallaudet went through batting and fielding workouts. 'Weather permitting, coaches will send their squads through some in- tensive workouts from mnow on, as, « reason for the|at best, they have a big task ahead in getting the men the season within the next three in shape to open eks BRITISH TO URGE TENNIS BE CUT FROM OLYMPICS ONDON. March 16.—The Lawn Tennis Association wants the game eliminated from the future Olympics. submit a resolution with this as an aim at the annual general The British delegates will meeting of the International Lawn Tennis Federation, to be held in Paris on March 20. None of the Olympic tennis competitors in the 1924 games in Paris scemed to enjoy themselves; every one complained about something. This new British decision is, perhaps, the upshot of that discontent, which at one time led the American delegation into a threat to quit the com- petition altogethe VICTORY RUNS SEEN AS BILLIARD FAULT By the Associated Press NEW YORK, March 10.—Billiards, an ancient and international more than one “drawback is a possible situation wherein the spirit of contest is violated and a contestant may go down to defeat without having an opportunity to wicld a cue, other than in drawing for the break. Jake Schaefer in the recent 18.2 ne championship competition in g0 defeated Eric Hagenlacher by accumulating 400 points from the bre wh his opponent looked on. At the end of this marvelous run Schaefer was the victor and Hagen- lacher had been given no opportunity to defend himself, except in the open- ing minute, when the players view for the first shot Billiards, like base ball, is an in- ning game, but the diamond sport provides equal opportunity for all contestants. A base ball team may amass & score of runs in one inning, but in the latter half the opposing players have their opportunity. In foot ball and basket ball, of course, competing teams face each other throughout. There is a possibility that Hagen- lacher would have equaled that 400 run of Schaefer’s had he obtained the opportunity, and again it is pos- sible that Schaefer would have run on forever ad not the 400 points been all that were necessary. This contest might have been played by Schaefer alone, so far as the out- come was concerned. MANY SPEEDY RUNNERS IN COLLEGIATE RANKS College runners, by their showing In the intercollegiate indoor cham- pionships . in New York Saturday, threaten the quarter and half mile records held by the great Ted Meredith. Georgetown's record-shattering re. lay team displayed a quartet of half milers, running the distance in about 1:53, In the mile relay, Gage, running anchor for Yale, delivered 49 2-5 for the quarter, and the time of Cook of Syracuse must have been near 49. JOHNSON USES BOXING TACTICS IN MAT BOUT, DULUTH, Minn, March 10.—Jack Johnson reverted to boxing in his wrestling match here last night with Charles Leppanen, Finnish heavy- weight wrestler, in the third and de- cisive fall, and lost the match on a foul, a left hook to the jaw that floored Leppanen.

COLUMBIA LO;ES ‘WILSON. NEW YORK, March 10.—Tllness of Capt. Cort Wilson, Columbia’s basket ball leader, will leave the Morning- side Heights team without a pilot: for the remainder of the season. Jack Lorch, substitute guard, will take his place. —_— Alonzo Amos Stagg, University of Chicago athletic” director, fhas de- clined a tentative offer to become athletic director of the Uniyersity of Southern Californla, he has disclosed. The British at the forthcoming Paris gathering will record their vote in favor of the admission of Austria and Hungary to the international as- sociation, but will take no action in Germany's case. The British have also decided to support membership applications from Ireland, India, Egypt, Greece and Ecuador. After consylting with the. United States Lawn Tennis Association and leading British players, the con- trolling body on this side has decided to submit the following wording of an amended foot-fault rule to the federation: “Rule 6.—Immediately before com- mencing to serve, the server shall stand with both feet at rest behind (e, farther from the net than the base line) and within the imaginary continuation of the center-mark and side line, and thereafter untll the service has been delivered the server shall (a) not change his position by walking or running; (b) maintain contact with the ground; (c) keep both feet behind the base line.” My Record-Breaking Run M green. were as follows: Each time I did the course in 70 1 equaled the record. Incidentally, I made a 33 on the second 9 holes In the first and second rounds, and in the third round got over the same territory in 32. This latter figure broke the record for coming home held by Walter Hagen. 1f you will add up the totals for the second, third, fourth and fifth rounds, too—a total of 72 holes, you will find that my medal score amounted to 281, a low figure for a championship course like La Boulie. When the French open champion- ship was played over the same course Tolley won it with a medal of 290, nine strokes more than 1 took for a 293, was 12 strokes behind me, But the most unusual part about it all, and the feature that caused the most discussion, was that from the seventh hole of the third round to the second hole of the sixth and final round I lost oply one hole. This hole was won by G. J. Castel; the Belgian champion, on the eighth hole of the fourth round, when he sank & 40-foot putt and got a birdie three. His wonderful putt was all that stood between me and a record of having played 49 successive tourna- ment holes without Josing one. Castel did not win another hole. In the fifth round my opponent, H. A. Read, one of the best of the British amateurs, failed to collect a single hole. A peculiar circumstance was that Read and I halved the first seven holes in par. It was in the third round, against Andre Vagliano, who has held the French closed amateur champion- ship three times, that I made my first 70 and equaled the record. Going out, Vagliano was shooting wonderful golf, making a medal of 35 and placing me three down at t*s ninth hole. I remember that his wife came up to me and asked: “How are you doing?” “I'm doing the best I can,” I re- plied (I hi made a 38), “but your husband is performing | nperfect- style. the same distance, while Hagen, with | CENTRAL FIVE PAIRED ININE RECORDS SHATTERED IN PAIR OF TRACK MEETS IN U.

Chicago, did the low hurdles in ? 1-5 seconds, a record for women, and then topped oft her night's work with 6 1-5 seconds for the 50-yard dash, also a world record for women. The crowd came to see Nurmi, who worked through his race with the finished polish that was expected, but to Ritela went the mad cheers when he cut into lap after lap in his tour of the track at an astonishing speed. The two entries running against MAim were lapped frequently as the tireless Willle went at his work with seeming added speed until the starter fired the final gun, indicating one lap to go. Ritola flashed & burst of speed totally unexpected, and burst against the tape with two new world records, applauded by roaring cheers of the spectators. FRIGERIO IS COMPETING. Ugo F¥rigerio of Italy, champion walker of the Olympics at 10,000 meters, will face his recent conqueror, Phil Granville of Canada, in a race at Cleveland tonight.

Billon kept the lead for Boston College for the first two laps, but Leo Larrivee, Holy Cross speedster, snatched the place from F. J. Daly of Boston as the third started. Larrivee turned over the baton to Mulvihill with plenty to spare, but the latter was unequal to McCloskey's supreme challenge. De La Salle relay quartet estab- lished a mew indoor interscholastic record for the mile, beating Brooklyn Tech, and Flushing High in 8 min- seconds. The old record made by Mercersburg Academy two years ago. Harold (Boots) Lever of the New York A.

SIX WINS FROM WILLIAM AND MARY Swarthmore gir] tossers, who come here Friday might for an encounter with the George Washington Uni- versity sextet, are likely to meet some tough opposition if the Wash- ington six can be judged by caliber of play shown last night when they defeated the Willlam and Mary basket ball team, 30 to 28, and got revenge for a reverse suffered earlier in the season on the Willlamsburg court. The Virginians started off with a rush and took the first quarter of the game, 7 to 6, when the George Washington six stepped out in front, and at the intermission held the ad- vantage, 17 to 15, During. the third quarter the visit- ors had their own way, and collected 11 points while holding the home team to a lone fleld goal.

For the first three Tounds the fight was slow. In the fourth Gill caught ‘Baum a glancing right on the jaw and the Baltimodgan took the count. He had no troublp in sticking out the round. The fiftéwas uninteresting. The Penmsylvania lad appeared to be holding back something, but he came out of his shell in the sixth and \dropped Baum with & right to the jaw. The seventh saw the fur begin to fly, and Baum again kissed the (canves, this time from a left hook. When he arose Gill went right after him and was dishing out some real punishment when the towel came to Baum's rescue. Curley Warfield of Washington and [Jimmy ~ Watterman, United States Navy, staged a whale of a fight as long as it lasted. The first round was a slam-bang affair, with honors even. The second was all Warfield's, when suddenly the saflor lad's right shot out and lodged on the point of the Washingtonian's jaw. Warfield went iown for the count and arose groggy. Watterman went right after his man ind dropped him cold—the bell sav- ing Warfield. Curley came out of his corner still woozy and a right-hand punch knocked him clear through the ropes. The sponge then came to his afd. Lew McCarty 8f Baltimore had a shade on Jack Cody of Fort Myer at the end of their six-round go. It was a good fight between two tough, hard- hitting boys.

Jose Mlvedoz was no match for Kid Chaeong of Fort Myer, and the ref- eree stopped the fight in the second round. Alvedoz hardly knew what the whole thing was about. Harry Sheehy (Kid Sullivan) took care of the preliminaries, gvhile Coi. Ericsan was the third in the ring during the main bout.

Y., March 10.—Jack Delaney or Bridgeport, Conn., knocked out the Jamaica Kid of New York in the second round of a scheduled 10-round bout last night. R This reminds me of Jim Simpson, who hails from the same neck of the woods that Mr. Leek does. Simpson is considered the best big game hunter and guide in the Jackson Hole country. He has spent 30 years hunting elk, bear and mountain sheep. The other day Simpson said: “I get twice the kick out of watch- iag mountain sheep that 1 did 20 vears ago. 1 find more pleasure to- in whipping these streams for trout than 1 did 20 years ago. In- stead of getting tired of these things, 1 have grown to love them the more. You might think, after 30 years, 1 would find these mountains monoton- ous, and would want te get outside and see other things. But the fact is that these darn mountains keep me here. 1 have never got tired of look- ing at them yet Isaw Simpson looking for mountain sheep through his glasses. When he spied a bunch, he was as tickled as a kid. He became as enthusiastic as the first-timer owdr a big ram. 1 saw him spend a whofp day te get a sight of a really fine ram. He just wanted to look at him. And he has been doing stantly for 30 years! That is the hold the outdoor life has on Simpson, who, by all the stand- ards I have found in the city, should be “sick of his job.” But the differ- ence is that this is not a job to Simp- son. It is exactly what he wants to_do. By turning his hobby into a busi- ness, he is able to live as he wants to. He is getting something out of life. this con- Not long ago I saw a motion picture of Eskimos hunting walrus. sighting a herd of these animals swimming across the water, an Eskimo would paddle after them, paddle right into the herd, and harpoon one of them.

It is 19 inches wide, ~about 9 inches deep, and perhaps 15 feet long. The Bskimos are absolutely fearless in it. Still, not an Eskimo can swim.
