Feature Week’s Grid Card : Intersectional Flavor in Mid-West Bill WITH THE BOWLERS EAST'S ONLY FOES UNBEATEN, UNTIED Of Other Six Teams With Clean Slates Only Villa- nova Has Tough Game. BY HERBERT W. BARKER. Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, October 29.—There’s a double quartet of Eastern college foot ball teams which still can sing lusty songs of gridiron triumph undimmed by defeat or tie. ‘These eight are survivors of 15 teams which took perfect records with them when they set foot on the foot ball fleld last Saturday afternoon. Seven neglected to keep their records untar- nished, among them such stalwart ag- gregations as Yale, Dartmouth, Penn- sylvania and Cornell. Georgetown, victor in five straight battles and leading the whole country in sco: with 240 points, clashes with New York University, second in East- ern point scoring, in the East’s only battle of undefeated and untied teams next Saturday. One or the other, and perhaps both, will undergo the pain- ful operation of having national title aspirations cut away. Face Easier Opposition. Aside from Villanova, all other mem- bers of the octet seem certain to con- tinue their winning streaks. Villanova takes on a tough foe in Bucknell, but Army, Temple, Boston College and ‘Haverford face easier opposition. Car- negie Tech has made certain of re- maining in the perfect class by sche uling an open date for next Saturday Army, conqueror of Yale in a thrilling battle, meets an intersectional foe in Depauw. Boston College faces Man- hattan, Haverford battles Franklin and Marshall, and Temple takes on Schuylkill. Victorious over Cornell by the .nar- gin of a drop-kick, Princeton goes West to meet undefeated Ohio State at Co- Jumbus. Notre Dame, not so potent an array as Knute Rockne is accus- tomed to come East, on the other hand, to meet Penn State which Battled Syracuse to a 6-6 tie last week. Col- gate, trounced by N. Y. U, entertains ‘Wabash at Hamilton in the fourth in- tersectional clash involving Eastern teams. Penn, victim of a Navy attack, tackles Chicago in the Midwest. Yale-Dartmouth to Draw. Although both have been beaten, Yale and Dartmouth will attract the banner crowd of the day at New Haven. Dartmouth’s surprising defeat by Har- vard probably will send the Indians into the Yale bowl in an under-dog role. Harvard takes a breather after the grueling Army and Dartmouth games and meets Lehigh. 's warriors, who have been doing a lot of traveling this season, face a comparatively docile Panther at Pittsburgh and Lafayette does not ex- pect to find Washington and Jefferson as tough as usual. West Virginia, which conquered Lafayette, and Fordham, de- sl:l..slve vlcu‘;lr over W. and J, rest this turday in preparation for their elec- tion day battle, November 6. On the basis of its showing at Phil- adelphia, Navy will be heavy favorite over West Virginia Wesleyan, but Cor- nell and Columbia expect nothing but an - evenly-matched battle. Brown, which ended Tufts’ long winning streak in a sensational game over the week end, takes on Holy Cross. _— By the Assoclated Press.

CHICAGO, October 29 (#).— The Italian heavyweight wrestling cham- plonship is to be decided in Chicago Sixteen Chevy INNERS of two of the pre- vious golf competitions held this Fall at Chevy Chase Club are included in the list of contestants in the Siamese Cup event, pairings for which were an- nounced today. Walter R. Tuckerman, who won the President'’s Cup, and Dr. Thomas A. Claytor, who won the Liberty Cup, are among the entrants in the Siamese Cup tourney. Tuckerman won the original Siamese trophy three years ago, the cup becoming his permanent possession. The pairings follow: Harrison Brand, jr., vs. D. D. L. Me- Grew; E. M. Talcott vs. Walter R. Tuckerman, C. G. Treat vs. Walter C. Guilion, Hugh M. Southgate vs. G. B. Sherwood, Carl H. Butman vs. E. O. Wagenhorst, Landra B. Platt vs. R. H. Jackson, C. B. McVay, jr, vs. R. Whiteley; I. J. Carr vs. Dr. T. A. Claytor. ‘The first match round must be com- pleted by Wednesday night, while the final round is scheduled prior to No- vember 10. They treat ’em rough at Washington Golf and Country Club. A member of the handicap committee was playing the other day with a man whose golf talents belied his handicap as announc- ed at the first tee. This gent, it seems, had played the first six holes in par— or thereabouts. So at the seventh tee the handicap committee member said to him: “What did you say your handi- cap was?” “My handicap is 22,” the golfer re- lied. P “Oh, it was 22,” the committee mem- ber said. “Yes, it is 22, unless it has been changed recently. I haven't looked at the board for a few days. “No,” the committee member said, “jt was 22.” “How come ‘was 222" " “Well, your handicap was 22. It is now being changed.” And it was. J. Monro Hunter and George Diffen- baugh, Indian Spring professionals, re- venged themselves on Charles M. Mc- Court and Tom Cole, Baltimore ama- teurs, when they trounced the pair from the Monumental City in a match at Indian Spring yesterday by the im- posing margin of 5 and 3. Cole and McCourt defeated the local duo in a match at Baltimore, 1 up, & week ago. Both Hunter and Diffenbaugh had cards of 75. Neither of the Balti- moreans was able to break 80. Page Hufty still holds the Congres- sional Country Club championship. Registering a splendid 71 over the first 18 holes of the 36-hole final round for the 1928 title, played yesterday, Hufty defeated H. H. Newton by 4 and 3 in the final, reaching the luncheon in- terval 4 up on Newton and retaining his lead in the afternoon. Hufty holed his mashie pitch shot to the sixth hole for an eagle 2. Newton, the loser, scored a birdie 3. Mrs. F. L. Yates and Willlam K. Har- tung nnnexeg)thz mixed Scotch four- some at nal yesterday, scor- ing 109—22—87,,to lead Mrs. Monroe E. Miller and E' J. Harding by one- half stroke. The latter pair had 114— 261,—87%. Mrs. H. A. Knox and Dr. Bruce L. Taylor turned in a card of 96 to win the gross prize. George J. Voigt, returning to the scene of his earlier triumphs, per- formed in characteristic Voigt fashion yesterday to win the annual tourney of the Columblia ex-caddies at Beaver Dam Country Club. Voigt registered a card of 34—38—72 to establish a new course record and win the gold medal em- blematic of the “Brightwood champion- ship.” The former District titleholder had no walkaway, however, for he was two shots back of Harry G. Pitt going to the fourteenth hole. From this point Voigt steadied, while Pitt went over par on three holes, and Voigt won, the tourney by one stroke, Pitt turning in a 73. Pitt drove into the woods at the seventeenth and missad a 10-footer on the last green which would have squared him with Voigt. Pitt chose to take the prize offered for low net by Emmert Heitmuller and received a medal for second low gross. A dinner was given at the clubhouse following the golf match in honor of Voigt. M.. Chase Golfers Paired for Siamese Cup Play third low net prize. Earl McAleer was the only other contestant to break 80. E. E. Swan scored an ace on the twelfth hole at the Manor Club yester- day, holing his tee shot on this 205- yard affair. 0. C. Murray got a scintillating half on the seventeenth hole in a match the other day at Washington with Maj. E. W. Cushing. The latter had played his second shot to the green with a holeable putt left for a birdie 3. Mur- ray, meanwhile, had lost a shot in the fairway and played his third shot into a bunker at the left of the green. He holed out from the bunker, and Cush- ing missed his birdie, the hole being halved in par 4s. Leo Diegel and Gene Sarazen were victorious in matches with Baltimore P. | professionals at the Rolling Road Club yesterday, defeating Jimmy Roche, the Middle Atlantic professional match play champion, and Charles Betschler, in the morning tilt by 3 and 2, and down- ing Carroll T. McMaster and Glenn Spencer in the afternoon by 2 and 1. Diegel registered a 68 in the morning match. This business of observing the rules of golf is a relative thing. Funda- mentally the rules rest solely in the mind of the player, and with the as- sumption that every golfer is a gentle- man, it is seldom that golf fails to reveal other than the finest kind of sportsmanship. Take the case of Ban- nockburn, where the r.>wv layout of the club is rounding into shape after a year or two of strug;ling with diffi- cult conditions of terrcin and contour. Bannockburn’s local rules are most flexible, but we venture to say not a golfer in the club's membership takes advantage of the unusual code which prevails there. For example, there really isn't a trap on the course in so far as the playing ot the game is con- cerned. For a local rule declares that traps are not hazards and that the ball may be dropped in or behind the trap. Another says the lie may be im- proved anywhere on the course, in rough or on fairway. But it won't be long before such rules go by the board lllnd the ball must be played where it es. Here are Bannockburn's present rules: “The lie may be improved (except in water hazards and on the putting greens) within a club's length, not nearer the hole. This rules does not permit removal of the ball from the rough or the fairway, although the lie may* be improved in either location. “Springs and streams are water hazards from bank to bank. “Roads and drainage ditches are not hazards. Lift without penalty. “Traps are not hazards. Improve the lie within a club length, not nearer the hole, within trap or back of trap, with- out penalty. “Places marked ‘ground under repair’ are not hazards. Drop without penalty. “Out of bounds beyond the stakes on No. 16, loss of distance only. “Lost ball—Another ball may be played from where it is estimated the lost ball may be found with a penalty of one stroke. “Mud may be removed without penalty. “Ball on green—A ball party im- bedded in a putting green or a ball on a green in a hole which interferes with the putt may be shifted not nearer the cup, just enough to avoid such hole. This does not permit player to change the location of the ball to avoid a more distant obstacle or hole in the line of putt, except for avoidance of casual water, as in the United States Golf As- sociation rules. “A ball driven from the tee.on No. 12 beyond the line of ‘stdkes -from the stable to the ditch, may be brought back into the fairway without penalty.” o CIVIL WAR BATTLEFIELD MADE INTO GOLF LINKS The celebrated crater battlefield, at Petersburg, Va., a Civil War creation, has been turned into a golf course. ‘The various holes on the course are named in honor of Confederate and Federal officers. The course is declared by experts to be A. Shipley, with 77—3—74, won the one of the best in Virginia. CLAN SOCCER TEAM DEFEATS ROSEDALE Clan MacLennan booters triumphed over the less experienced Rosedale team, 4 to 2, in the feature match in the Washingten Soccer League yester- day. It was a hard-fought engage- ment all the way, with each team scor- ing two goals in the first half and the winners counting & couple more in the final session while holding their op- ponents pointless. Concord’s handy 9-4 win over Marl- boro at Upper Marlboro, Md., in the other Washington League *match was surprising to some. It was the Germania Club, which drubbed Silver Spring, 5 to 0, on the Monument lot, which pulled the big- gest upset of the day. Silver Spring had won two in a row and was ex- pected to take another rather easily at the expense of Germania. Capital City League engagements listed between Rockville and Army Medicos and Arcadians and Marlboro Reserves were postponed because of- ficials were not present. Arthur Werner was Concord’s star, his toe accounting for three of his team’s goals. Kreder was the indi- tonight, when George Calza and Mike Romano meet in a finish match. vidual ace for Germania, playing a fine all-around game. Rich Money Stakes Will Lure Golf Pros to West and South BY BRIAN BELL. Associated Press Sports Writer. NEW YORK, October 29.—Golf pro- fessionals willing to take a chance, and most of them are, are oiling their spiked shoes and polishing their nib- licks for the Winter hunt for glory and prize money in a score of tourna- ments. The pros are about to set out on a winding trail, leading West and then South, to shoot for the big prizes waiting for those fortunate enough to be in the money. The first of the Winter tournaments is the Oklahoma City open, November 2-4, with the Oregon open on its heels and a dozen worthwhile events to fol- low in California. When the crack golfers have made new records for courses or themselves on the Pacific Coast they will adjourn to Florida, with side excursions into Arkansas and Texas on the way South. After Florida comes Pinehurst, and by that time the personnel of the Ryder cup team will have been decided and members of this all-star group will set their faces toward England to de- fend the trophy emblematic of the pro- fessional championship of the two countries. While the team is abroad the British open will be staged, with all the invading pros trying their luck in_this blue ribbon event. : Walter Hagen, the British champion, will, of course, play a defending role, and Johnny Farrell, the open champion of the United States, will be there, as will Leo Diegel, P. G. A. champion. These three stars and many of their fellows have a busy year ahead of them, amateurs will congregate at the Winged Foot Club, Mamaroneck, N. Y., to make an assault on Farrell's title. ‘The pros must start on their Winter trek with well fillled pocketbooks, for there is no assurance that even the best of them will have their wallets refilled with prize money. Railway fare and hotel bills go on whether the players win, lose or draw and strokes are translated into terms of dollars at every turn, One shot may mean the difference between $1,500 and $800 and another between $100 or nothing. Dave Spittal, a picturesque pro, sized up the situation in a Southern tourna- ment once when he came in with a 72-hole score of 300. “Will it be in the money?” he asked observers at the eighteenth green. He was assured that the best judg- ment of the assembled experts was that it would. “Think it'll be car fare?” was his next question, The audience did some figuring after consulting the score board and ventured an opinion that his score would get him just about the amount he spent to get to the tournament from his club and back again. “Fair enough,” said Dave. That’s better than nothing and there's always another one where you may get more. An even break would be better, but I guess I'll have to pay the hotel bill and fagdv fee and hope for better luck next e Another pro at a “big money” tourna- ment had so little faith in his score that as he gave his caddy $20 after his last round he told the bag carrier, “I for soon after they return from their forelgn ventures the leading pros and hope that’s enough. It's more than I'll get for playing.” WOMEN IN SPORT BY CORINNE FRAZIER. George Washington University fleld hockeyists have but two weeks more to opens November 17 when they meet the St. Teachers’ College eleven of Har- risonburg, Va. This game will be played on the Eliipse field. From the 44 candidates who have re- ported a strong eleven will be picked within the next week or so, which prob- ably will include at least eight of 1927 squad. Caroline Hobbs, Jenny Turnbull, Mary Sproul, M. Alverson, Ruth Chindblum, Marjorie Folsom, M. Graham and Elizabeth Zimmerman are the old varsity members back in the line-up. Caroline Hobbs has been elected hockey manager, assisted by I von Lewinski, M. Folsom, R. Martin, N. Crumley and Miss Reed. Varsity practice is held regularly on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons on the Ellipse from 2:30 to 3:30 o'clock. The tentative schedule announced by Miss Hobbs follows: November 17—8t.

Baltimore Independents, substituting for- the Herring Run Club hockey eleven scheduled to meet the Washington Field Hockey Club yesterday afternoon, scored a 6-to-1 victory over the locals on_the Ellipse field. Washington's lone goal was made by Mary Sproul in the second period. Alfredda Iglehart, Independent goal- keeper, was so skillful in deflecting potential scorers that all other at- tempts on Washington’s part to score came to naught. Mrs, Charles H. Boehm (Edwardo Gamble), playing center forward for the Independents, scored the first three goals credited to her team. Twice she drove home in the first half. Bertha Berger accounted for two tallies and Rosa Tyson for one. Hazel Sayre, right fullback, and Jenny Turnbull, center half, put up an excellent game for Washington, often checking the visitors’ attack. M.

NORTHWESTERN’S COACH KEEPS TAB ON PLAYERS CHICAGO, October 29 (#).—Dick Hanley, Northwestern foot ball coach, takes no chances of forget- ting good or bad work of his team. While most coaches take notes or rely on their memory for their regu- lar Monday post-mortem, Hanley carries an assistant coach along with his team who knows how to use a dictaphone. The machine takes a running account of the game, just what play was called and how it was executed. Later, a stenographer transcribes the details, and a black- and-white record of faults and suc- cesses is on hand for Hanley's use. “You say you can't recall what happened when Illinois scored that touchdown?” he barks at his men. “Why just listen to this.” Then he reads and rereads the sad details. ELEVENSON COAS ATGRUGAL STAC Contests This Week End to Have Much Bearing on Championship. By the Assoclated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, October 29.— “triple entente” of Western foot bl is near a parting of ways, for after a veaceful joint rule of two weeks, Stanford, Southern California and Cal- ifornia will decide next Saturday which two or possibly which one will con- tinue to dominate the affairs of the Pacific Coast Conference. Tied for the title, the Cardinals of Stanford and the Trojans of Southern California risk their gridiron chances in one grand sweep at Los Angeles. California, also undefeated, gambles with its future standing in a game at Berkeley against Oregon. No contest looms above the classic that will bring Stanford and South- ern California into action. More than 75,000 persons have long since snapped up the tickets that assure a jammed coliseum. Last_year these two elevens played to a 13-to-13 tie and ended the sea- son tied with Idaho for the conference championship. th had comparatively easy week- ends just passed. A team of Stanford reserves rushed over Fresno State by a 47-0 score. Southern California beat down the resistance of a scrappy Oc- cidental squad, 19-0. Caiifornia lost to the Olympic Club, 12-0, but it was an eleven composed of youngsters that took the bump. Coach “Nibs” Price was content to drop a non-conference game, the first defeat of the season, rather than run the risk of losing any regulars for the Oregon engagement. Oregon has shown plenty of power, despite an early defeat by Stanford, and last Saturday walked over Mon- mouth Normal, 25-0. IOWA ELEVEN LEADS BIG TEN IN SCORING By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, October 29.—Coach Burt Ingwersen’s Iowa Hawkeyes scored only 7 points in their duel with Minnesota Saturday, but they easily retained their lead in the race for team-scoring hon- ors in the big ten’s foot ball campaign. So far in four contests the Hawks have piled up 16 touchdowns and kicked 11 extra points for a grand total of 107, or 12 more than their closest rival, Wisconsin. Ohio State took the lead for defense, holding Indiana scoreless Saturday and keeping its local opponents’ score to 7 points. For the second straight week no field goals were kicked. “Fritz" failed to score against Northwestern Saturday, but he retained his lead in the chase for individual scoring honors with a total of 42 points.

Iowa, light-heavy- weight sensation, will go' gunning for his fiftieth_consecutive victory tonight when he tangles with Harry Dillon, for- mer Candian champion, in the principal 10-round match at White City. Griffiths, a rugged youth with a pile- driving punch, has had a metecric | career in the ring, advancing from pre- liminary boy to a contender for the light-heavyweight crown within one year. A good share of his 49 victories have been via the knockout route. In his last match here he stopped the vet- eran Mike McTigue in the first round, pummelling the “Iron Man” with his devastating punches. Dillon, who recently lost his Canadian crown to Charley Ballenger, also is a terrific puncher and is apt to demon- 6 | strate ability to absorb punishment. Two other matches are on Chicago’s 00 fight program this week. Young Jack Thompson, Pacific Coast negro, meets Bobby Tracey, clever Buffalo welter- weight, over 10 rounds at the Hippo- drome Wednesday night, and Rene De Vos, Belgian middleweight, meets Dave Shade of California in a 10-rounder at the Coliseum Friday night. Both bouts are billed as elimination contests with the winner promised a shot at the wel- terweight and middleweight titles.

NICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. HICAGO, October 29.—An inter- sectional atmcsphere will per- » | vade the Big Ten Saturday . when the untamed Princeton Tiger invades Ohio State, Ala- bama’s Crimson Tide attacks Wisconsin and Pennsylvania tackels Chicago. All the Conference championship tinge of .. the day will center at Ann Arbor, where <~ Michigan will fight to halt the cham- pionship tread of Bob Zuppke’s Illini. Although out of championship run- ning with three straight Conference de= feats, Michigan's gridiron machine showed such impressive power in hold- ing Wisconsin to a 7 to 0 victory Sat- * urday that it appears as a real men- ace to Illinots. The Illini were so un- impressive in their 6 to 0 victory over Northwestern that Coach Tad Wieman |and his Wolverines belicve they have ' a great chance to provide foot ball's biggest upset of the year. - From a national championship view= point, however, the Princeton-Ohio State batle attracts tpe greatest atten- tion. Neither has been defeated: this scason and more than 70,000 are ex- pected to watch the duel at Columbus. Ohio State whipped Indiana, 13 to 0, Saturday, displaying the best balanced Buckeye attack in three years. The - victory carried Ohio to the top of the - Big Ten standings, as it is the only , team to play and win three Conference. games, although Iowa and Illnolis have a perfect perenctage with two triumphs apiece. Printeton’s last victim was-~ Cornell, which was defeated 3 to 0 when dashing Dave Lowry arched a field goal between the uprights in the third - period of Saturday's battle. Coach Burt Ingwersen's ponderous Towa Hawkeyes, who subdued Minne- sota’s Bonecrushers, 7 to 6, in a thrill- er Saturday at Iowa City, will rest up, with probably the reserves tackling South Dakota. T Minnesota will invade Northwestern. :* The Gophers are out of the champion- ship running, but threaten to avenge -" themselves on their future opponents. Purdue, which lambasted Chicago, 40 to 0, Saturday, the worst licking Coach * a0l Stagg’s men have received in more than a decade, will meet another non-con- ference team, Case, at Lafayette. In< diana will have a day off. Alabama has lost one game this sea- son, but is a ranking team of the Dixie terrain and promises to give Coach Glen Thistlethwaite’s Badgers plenty of fight. The Badgers’ chief fault seemsto - be a disorganized offensive when they % get within their opponents’ 10-yard. line. Nothing but another defeat seems in,;, prospect for Chicago when it tangles.w» with Pennsylvania. Penn was defeated by the Navy, 6 to 0, Saturday in a stunning upset and is in vindictive ~+ mood. It appears as if Stagg and his men will suffer for it. 4k and come back for more!—And it’s wrap- ped in foil. Consolidated Cigar Cozp: New York Distributor & TOBACCO CO. N. W., Washinston, D. C.
