WEST POINT VEERING |\WORLD GOLF TITLE STAKE BY LAWRE..CE PERRY. WEST POINT, N. Y., September 16.—There is a growing tendency at the United States Military Academy toward the adoption of the one-year rule for all varsity teams. The writer ventures the prediction that at no far distant date this restriction will be put into effect. If it is brought about, the fact that the sister service institution, the Naval Academy, has enforced the rule for several years will not in all prob- ability have been the impelling cause. It will be because Yale, with whom the Army's annual game is coming to be one of the season’s classics and all other important colleges with whom the Army has—or would like to have—athletics relations, observe this rule and would not be displeased if the Army did. Lacking it, the time conceivably might arrive when the Army might find it extremely difficult to interlard her schedule with significant contests other than the final big game against the Navy team. FOURTEEN GRIDMEN WORK AT WESTERN Fourteen candidates for the West- ern High School feot ball team are working out dally at Georgetown hol- low getting into condition for the strenuous grind that will be started Monday, when the remainder of the squad reports for duty. Only three veterans of the 1024 team that tied with Tech for the scholastic title are among this small number that already have turned out as prospective members of the eleven and with the fraternity ban still on there is no chance of this number be- ing augmented. Coach Ahearn faces the problem of building a team almost from the ground up. but at that his task seems to be no greater than that which con- fronts several of the other school mentors. Capt. George Hageage, Al- bert Heagy and Jimmy Mitchell are the three regulars from last season who are counted upon to be the main- stays of the machine. Other members of the squad, most of whom have had little or no experi- ence in the gridiron sport, are Bob Wilson, Casson Shoemaker, Charles ‘Walker, John Batson, Hank Higgins, Williamm Brady, Horace Whalen, Lawn Thompson, George Walker, Robert Kirschmeyer and Hugh Mc: Diarmid. George Walker and Thomp- son are being kept out of praetice by minor injuries, but are reporting each day in order to gain as much knowl- edge of the game as possible. Uniforms were issued the Western- | ers yesterday. HERMAN AND KAPLAN ARE T0 MEET AGAIN. By NEW YORK, September 16.—Con- tracts for a retu 5-round feather- weight championship fight between Babe Herman. former Californ boxer, and Louis (Kid) Kaplan, Meriden, Conn.. title holder, the new cember 1%, have been signed today by Kaplan's management. Herman, whose challenge and felt for a s accepted by Commission, within a few days announced. Kaplan succesfully defended his title against Herman at Waterbury, Conn., several weeks ago by obtaining a draw with the challenger, but the verdict failed to meet with approval at the hands of Herman's friends. A rally by Kaplan in the closing rounds of the fight was considered by referee, who gave the decision, as balancing a big point advantage piled up by Herman in the early rounds. JIM SLATTERY TO KEEP DATE MADE WITH GREB NEW YORK, September 16 (#).— Jimmy Slattery of Buffalo, undaunted by his knockout defeat at the hands of Paul Berlenbach in a light-heav: weight championship fight last Fri- day, expects to fuifill the contract calling for a middleweight titie bout with Harry Greb of Pittsburgh at the Polo unds October b5 Matchmaker Jimmy Johnston as- gerts Slattery’s setback has lost him none of his army of fistic followers in New York and that the 15-round battle would be staged as planned.

TIGERS AGAIN TO USE HUDDLE SIGNAL SYSTEM PRINCETON, N. I., September 16 UP).—Sixty candidates were given an intensive drill by Coach Bill Roper at Princeton’s first foot ball practice, the workout winding up with a long dummy scrimmage. Murray Gibson, halfback, and John Crago, guard, are two veterans who have not yet put in an appearance. Roper sald he planned to use again the huddle system for signals, insti- tuted at Princeton last year. CAMBRIDGE NOW LEADS HAGERSTOWN FOR TITLE CAMBRIDGE, Md., September 16.— Outplaying their opponents in every department of the game, the Cam- bridge tossers, Eastern Shore League champlons, yesterday took their sec- ond straight from Hagerstown in the five-State base ball series.

Yesterday, with the score even at sewall, the Krucoff-De Souza vs. Kelley-Frazier match was called by the umpire on account of darkness with the agreement that action would be resumed today.

With another “weather-it” the track and field meet scheduled at Cordoza Playground this afternoon is an- nounced.

Vergie Hyman and Helen Rawlings, whose match in the Washington Ath- letic Club net event was called yes- terday on account of darkness, will continue play next Monday afternoon at 4:45 o'clock on the Henry Park courts at Sixth and B streets north- west. Miss Rawlings captured the first set at 7—5. It then was too late to start a second, so the match was called at that point. Becky Kronman, chairman of the tennis committee, has announced a re- vised schedule as follows: September 16 (today), Z. Ponorow vs. J. Diggs and M. Dininger vs. V. Sassur. September 17—L. McNatt vs. M. Travis and V. Moore vs. B. Kronman. September 18—E. Hearn vs. E. Tew and M. Ruthven vs. T. Hicks. September 19—B. Ramsey vs. M. Naylor.

N HARVARD CUTS ITS GRID SQUAD FROM 115 TO 42 CAMBRIDGE, Mass., September 16 (P).—Forty-two men were left on the Harvard varsity foot ball squad at the close of the first day’s practice of the season. The survivors include three absentees, who are expected to report in a few days. Aspirants to the number of 115 had repotted for the tryout. Indications that Clement Coady, & regular tackle last season, is to be groomed as a defensive back to re- place Erwin Gehrke, last year's star, were seen in the fact that Coady was assigned to the backfleld squad under Maj. Charles Daly. A. H. Miller, a bulwark of last season’s backfield, has an infected foot and did not report. Other absentees who will join the var- sity squad were John Fordyce, a reg- ular of last year, and Henry Chauncey of the 1924 freshman team. 18 HOLES AT MANOR CLUB.
