« St Stellar Backs to Clash at New Haven : Urbana Battle Heads Big Ten Program MICHIGAN, ILLINOIS RENEW POR IS LANE-CALDWELL CONTEST - IN DARTMOUTH-YALE TILT Strong Eli Line and ‘an All-American Prospect Will Tackle One of East’s Few Undefeated Teams. Other Interesting Games on Tap. By the Associated Press. EW YORK. October 25.—A great battle between two pow- erful teams, with an individual contest between Myles Lane of Dartmouth and Bruce Cald- well of Yale, star back, is in prospect for next Saturday at New Haven. A strong Yale line and an all- America prospect in the backfield will be lined up against one of the East's few undefeated and united aggrega: tions. Whereas the Elis were con- quered in an_early-season encounter by Georgia, Dartmouth has romped through the first half of its schedule |, with hardly a deep breath. Many foot ball observers look for Jesse Hawley's big Green team launch an overhead attack against the Elis. Dartmouth’'s forward passes were held in reserve in the Harvard rout of last week. Only three to: were completed for a total of 64 y: up to a time the Green had discovered it could penetrate the Harvard line almost at will. Dartmouth has been able to show more than one date. Alton Marsters, -year-old find, looked every bit as good against Har- vard as did Lane, the East's leading scorer. The Yale line, suc- cessfully repelled the most vicious of Army’s thrusts, may settle definitely any argument about individual su- premacy of ‘the backfleld stars. Little Interest in Game.

The most strike-outs on record for | & nine-inning game is credited to a |CAVALIERS, GENERALS | TOP VIRGINIA TEAMS By the Associated Press. Out of the tangle of a hectic week end on Old Dominion gridirons the Virginia foot ball season has begun to assume a definite shape. Previous to Saturday’s games it was | difficult to hazard what might be ex- pected of any given Virginia team, and while there is certainty that the elevens will perform consistently for the remainder of the season, yet there are indications as to where the strength lies. The two conference games to be played this coming Saturday will offer some interesting comparisons. In one Virginia will meet Tennessee at Knox- ville and Washington and Lee faces the University of Maryland. The first encounter will show whether Virginia has finally reached the top of its game and is to be reck- oned with as a State champion. Already the Cavaliers have conquered V. M. I and V. P. I. and the remain- ing obstacle is Washington and Lee. The contest at College Park, Md., bringing together the Generals and the Old Liners, promises to be the best in this section of the country. Each has suffered one defeat—Prince- ton defeted the ' Generals by - two touchdowns and North Carolina de- feated Maryland in ‘what was very much of an upset. Maryland’s victo- ries over V. M. I. and V. P. L are impressive, as are Washington and Lee’s over Duke and Kentucky. The Geperals are reported to have a fleet backfield, adept at the passing game, and the Maryland defense will have to be on its toes. V. P. I, like all of Virginia's big | teams, ‘will be out of the State and | will tackle Chattanooga. The Tech- men are fivored to win after a stiff | meets Davison | pected to conquer.

Miss Wills is said to take the or- dinary precaution of applying cold cream before she goes into a match and after each encounter. Her skin is as clear and innocent of blemish as the petal of a new blown rose. Nor is she the only one of the in- ternational group = who recently graced the national courts at Forest Hills to boast a perfect complexion. Little Betty Nuthall of England, de- spite the fact that she uses no eye- shade, has a skin equally as lovely, with just an added touch of color, which is lacking in her American ri- val's cheeks. Joan Fry, while a bit tanned, is by no means suffering from a sun-parched complexion. In fact, few of the women of the rank- |ing group show signs of the devastat- ing effects that vigorous sports are supposed to have upon the complex- ion and beauty of the fair sex. Their ppearance is such as to convince the most skeptical that with the exercise of a little care and good judgment the modern girl may have her sports and her beauty as well. —_— ULTIMATUM ISSUED TO PRO BASKETERS George P. Marshall today | issued a drastic ultimatum to fiye { members of his Washington Baskdt Ball Club, the terms of which | that they must return signed contcacts or notify his office of their inte by next Tuesday, or place themse subject to a fine of $100 each together with suspension. Included in the order, which was telegraphed to their homes, were Rusty Saunders, the husky forward, who led the American League in point scoring last season; Stretch Meshan and Harry Riconda, who were obtained from Philadelphia in a trade Ilast Spring; Elmer Ripley, the veteran guard, who will coach Georgetown University’s quint, and John Conaty, the speedy forward who was outlawed a year ago for jumping the team. Negotiations with these players have been fruitless. - Marshall explains thnt with the opening of the season less than a month away, he must get the players together in time to prepare ‘hem and that unless he can do this by Novem: ber 10 at the latest the chances of putting a strong team on the floor will not be promising. Saunders, Riconda and Meehan are three of the five regulars that Marshall has been counting on, the other two being Manager Ray Kennedy and Chick Passon, who came from Phil- adelphia with Riconda and Meehan, Kennedy signed up in September, while Passon came to terms about a week ago. Besides this pair Gaza Chizmadia and Jude Baseman, promis- ing youngsters, have gotten in line. Bob Grody and Rody Cooney. who were outlawed last year for jumping the team, have only to sign contracts | to become eligible: once more. Their 1pplications for reinstat>ment were ap. proved recently by Joe <2 r, president of the American Basket Ball League. Owner Pitcher Weaver, recently acquired by the Chattanooga club in the South- ern League, is one of the tallest play- ers to break into organized base ball. He is 6 feet 614 inches tall. DO, By the Associated Press. HICAGO, October 25.—The four undefeated teams of the West- ern Conference, by a peculiar accident of the schedule, are the four which meet Big Ten foes mext Saturday. Two of them, Minnesota and Chicago, play oppo- nents which have already met defeat, Wisconsin and Ohio, respectively. The other two, Michigan and Illinois, clash at Urbana in one of the big zames of the year. Michigan has won four of the seven games since the annual series started after the war, holding the Illini scoreless in the last two battles. The one before that, in 1924, brought Red Grange undying fame, with his four touchdowns in the first 12 minutes of play. No team has been able to score a point on Michigan this vear, while II- linois was held to a 12-12 tie hy Towa State only two. weeks ago. Neither squad has important players on the Glenn" Thistlethwaite of onsin told his players that the Minnesota 38-0 victory over Towa only proved his prediction that the Gophers were stronger than Wisconsin, unless vast improvement is shown by next Saturday. The Badgers have a strong line and light backs to face a Minne- sota team which is heavy all the way through and as expert on passes 2s it is on line smashing. Hanley Shows 'Em. Dissatisfied with the showing of all his quarterbacks, Coach Hanley of ‘Northwestern jumped into the job himself last night for dummy scrim- mage to demonstrate how to drive tive Wildoats to victory against Mis- souri. Hanley was quarter on the Mare Island team of the Marines dur- ing the war, and before that perform- ed at Washington State. Tiny Lewis, the big fullback, and Waldo Fisher, end, who were hurt Saturday, watched practice in street clothes, but will be ready for work in a day or two. Northwestern and Missouri will meet under a non-scouting agreement. The system that has worked for three weeks at Chicago, “skull prac- tice” rather than scrimmage, is being followed this week by Coach Stagg. Ohio plays and players were explained to the varsity by scouts, and Stagg lectured at length on team work. Two important members of the squad who were out of the Penn game re- turned to the field in uniform yester- day, Libbey, halfback, and Proudfoot, tackle. Buckeyes Gloomy. The gloom in the Buckeyes’ camp is heavy, with tv.o defeats in a row, and Byron Eby, one of Ohio’'s best backs on crutches. In Monday prac- tice Cfoach Wilce shook up his line candidates again, sending Young into Capt. Myer> place at tackle. The Georgia Tech team is causing Rockne's ramblers more worry than any opponent vet this season, from the indications of Monday’s workout. The only injury from Saturday’s fray with_Inidiana was an' injured ankle for John . Niemic, Notre Dame’s best punter, but he will be ready for the Golden Tornado. Coach Phelan at Purdue patched up one weak spot developed in the Wis consin game by sending Burt Dreyer from center to end.

NEW YORK, October 25.—A for- mer New Orleans bootblack, Tony Canzoneri, has enhanced ‘his cl to the featherweight champions of the world by a 15-round victory over Johnny Dundee, the former title - holder, but the manner of his latest conquest leaves much to he desired Canzoneri plainly carried the vet- eran over the limit last night at Madison Square Garden. There was not a damaging punch landed, and Canzoneri. while giving the old mas- ter a boxing lesson, showed that he is unversed in the art of pulling his punches and making them appear real. A crowd of approximately 10.000 began calling for action in the fourth round. While Dundee, essay- ing a comeback after a year's lay-off was wildly cheered as he entered the ring he was roundly hooed at the final gong. Many of the spectators left the garden at the end of the seventh round. As the New York State Athletic Commission did not recognize the -ontest as involving the featherweight champlonship it is problematical whether that body will call a_hearing to consider the suspension of one or hoth of the principals Dundee, who only a month ago, weighed 140, entered the ring at 1257 pounds, a half pound under the featherweight limit, while Canzoneri scaled 124.
