One imagines that the effect of this foregathering would be fine not at all in the way of diminishing the ardor with which the playes carry on the game, not in minimizing the ruggedness of p'a but in giving to the players a_commc respect one for the other and a genu- ine liking. i __There is too little of those amenities in foot hall which Bill Roper seem to be trying to establish at Prince- ton this year. Among the univer- sities that go in for become the custom for one crew to entertain a rival crew, not only by meeting the men at dinner but hy putting them up in university clubs | r fraternity hous doing tality. But in.foot ball there has heen the idea that players must be kept apart, must be fed on raw meat and lashed into a_mood where they ever they think of the rivals th, to face.” Small doubt the spirit nd in other ways graceful little acts of hospi. of the Ohin State-Princeton game will | g0 a long way toward proving that this i not necessary. Years ago Alonzo Stagg devised the lidea of having teams fraternize at| dinner on the eve of a foot ball game. and he tried out the idea upon the visit of a Cornell eleven to Chicago. But as Stagg tells it. his belief in the efficacy of his plan suffered a severe shock when he learned that the players Cornell sent to the hanquet were second and third substitutes, the regulars remaining away. Since then important foot ball elevens have not tried the experiment; that is not until Princeton this year took up the custom of having her varsity team meet rival outfits at the banquet table previous to doing battle on the gridiron.

'Five National League Pilots Seem Certain to Retain Jobs BY JOHN B. FOSTER. EW YORK. November 5.—Two changes have been made in National League managerial positions thus early in the scason of post-season read- justments, and a_third is in prospect. ¥ National League pilots appar- ently are sure of their jobs. Following the departure of Dave Rancroft from Boston, where he had struggled in vain to lift the Braves into higher altitude, it has been an- nounced that Bob O'Farrell will not manage the St. Louis Cardinals in 1928, Stuffy Mclnnis may not con- tinue as manager at_Philadelphia. Donie Bush at Pittsburgh, Jack Hendricks at Cincinnati and Joe Me- Carthy at Chicago are settled for the next_year. So are John .J. McGraw at New York and Wilbert Robinson at Brooklyn, although tnere is stock- holder opposition to Robinson which makes his path anything but smooth. The retirement of both Bancroft and O'Farrell s foresnadowed. O'Farrell's resignation or withdrawal, or whatever it may have been, was not heralded conspicuously, but his friends had let it be known that he had had his fill of piloting the Cardi- nals. This development, therefore, is not surprising. Bill McKechnie rrob- ably will fall heir to O'Farrell's job, and as McKechnie had much to do with looking after the Cardinals in 1927, he knows what he has ahead of him. O'Farrell is wanted behind the bat in St. Louis, and ifehe caw't play hehind the bat it is 10 to 1 that he doesn’t care to handle the St. Louis Fights Last Night By the Associated Press.

Anvhow, if good catching is between the pennant of 1928 and St. Louis, it is apparent enough that O'Farrell is more useful behind the bat than on the bench worrying about his ball players. No team in the major leagues fis more of a vexation to a manager than the St. Louis Cardinals. Imagine a team where one of the players arro- gates to himself the right to do as he pleases and another thinks he has the same privilege; where at least two other players are self-constituted stars in their own opinions, and where half of the plavers are of fluctuating vouthfulness, O'Farrell tried to eatch and manaze the team at the same time. Then his arm sprung a sprain, and he was not | of much use to the team as a eatcher. When it is remembered that he was chosen by his league as the most val- uable player to his team in 1926, it is apparent how hard St. Louis was hit when O’ ell turned up temporarily scrapped in the Spring. The Cards were fortunate to have as good a catcher as Frank Snyder available. The New York Giants are presumed to be strong enough to be dangerous in 1928, but the St. Louis team has as much prospective strength as the Giants. Both teams will plunge into a furious fight for the pennant when the Spring campaign opens. If the St. Louis infield comes back next year, V‘}‘\'v :‘nrdlnals may take another flag est. | RICKARD IS DEMPSEY’S MANAGER, SAYS KEARNS NEW YORK, November 5 (#).—Tex Rickard has been drawn into the Kearns-Dempsey tangle by Jack Kearns, who declares he will disclose that Rickard in reality has been Dempsey’s manager and not Leo P.
