OHI0 STATE 3 Back BY WALTER TRUMBULL. HARVARD LINE—like a row of highly animated bank safes— and a good Harvard backfield will play the old shell game with Penn this afternoon: Try- ing to guess which arm the little ball is under. Pennsylvania has a line of its own. Smith at, tackle, Magai at d and ‘Westgate at center are highly able. You must have a good line with a hidden ball attack. As Percy Haughton used to say, “You can't take the rabbit out of the hat with somebody jobbling your elbow.” Harvard had a good line last year, but the men engaged in that fatal pastime of chasing the ball. This season they have stayed in position and guard- ed territory, and when they do that they are hard io get by. The Army-Notre Dame and the Navy- Michigan games should be worthy of the huge crowds that will furn out to see them. Just as many would watch the game at Cambridge if there were room. But those in authority at Harvard believe anything over 50,000 Spectators savors of ostentation. So a lot of graduates and their families will have to listen to the game over the radio. ‘That Army-Notre Dame encounter looks like something to talk about. You may remember Irvin Cobb's old major who, given a job on a newspaper, al- ways returned from an assignment—no matter what—to sit down and write the true story of the battle of Shiloh. He would have enjoyed covering this sol- dier-fighting_Irish contest. Don't get me wrong. No two teams in the land play cleaner foot ball than Army and Notre Dame. But they are old rivals, and each would mortgage the old home to beat the other. PLENTY OF THRILLS SURE IN GRID CONTESTS TODAY Dame has lost two games, which is sev- eral for a Rockne-drilled out to lose. Army must travel at double time to win. The game at Columbus should be a stirring affair. There Ohio State will dispute the championship of the Middle West with Towa. When those little two- ton centers, Barrett and Cupid Brown, face each other the collision should be worth writing home about. That Ohio flash, Eby, will have plenty to do to outshine such Iowa backs as Armil, Pape and McLain. The Navy-Michigan engagement, at Baitimore, is always a highly colorful game. This year the contestants look 50 evenly matched it should be a thrill- ing contest. Both teams got a bad start, but both have improved steadily and now seem to be traveling full speed ahead. Winning this game means a lot to each. Georgetown and Carnegle are battling to see which remains unbeaten. George- town supporters say that against New York University the cleven was not able to show its powerful attack, the field having been wet and slow. Lou Little's pupils’ offense depends largely on speec. If Georgetown gets a dry field today, it feels iis backs will be able to take ad- vantage of it. But Carnegie is a strong eleven with a good line and a great quarterback. The South is rightfully excited over the Georgia Tech-Vanderbilt game. Herc is another contest which every real foot ball fan would give a lot to watch. It is another in which two unbeaten teams meet. Each team has brilllant backs, and each has a flaming desire to win This should be a great game. There 15 no section of this country today where the fans cannot get plenty of excitement for their money. Good foot ball games are as plentiful as rocks. in Vermont. This appears to be Army's year. Notre By the Associated Press. EW YORK, November 10.—The foot ball menu for the second Saturday in November today gave gridiron fans many a puzzled moment. The program included such outstand- ing games as Army-Notre Dame, Michi- an-Navy, Pennsylvania-Harvard, Pitt- ashington and JefTerson, while Albany, N. Y., was the scene of the only game of the day between undefeated and amied teams in the East, Georgetown and Carnegie Tech. Some 86,000 booked seats for the Cadets' struggle against Knute Rockne's Hoosiers at the Yankee Stadium. Despite early season reverses by both coatestants, upward to 50,000 persons aranged to watch “Navy Bill” Ingram's Midshipmen take on Michigan's Wol- verines ‘at Baltimore. Perhaps 50,000 were intent on seeing the Pitt-Washington and Jefferson contest, a Western Pennsylvania classic. For 50,000 more the maz=~ was the Harvard Stadium, with Arnold Hor- ween's husky Crimson team matching wits, speed and brawn with a Pennsy vania team beaten only by the Nav Harvard has lost to Army, but otherwise boasts a clear record. Yale and Princeton, taking it easy for their meeting a week today, entertained Maryland and Washington and Lee, Tespectively. Syracuse's clash with Ohlo Wesleyan and West Virginia's home stand against the Oklahoma Aggies completed the intersectional card. Other outstanding affairs were Brown’s invasion of Hanover to take on Dartmouth, Lafayette's twenty-first meeting with Rutgers, at New Bruns- wick; a “Little Three” classic between Wesleyan and Williams, Villanova’s at- tempt to maintain a perfect record against Temple's thrusts and Lehigh's ;flfl to Lewisburg, Pa., to battle Buck- ell. Big Game for Notre Dame. In the Army-Notre Dame game some scattered few desired to see the Corps of Cadets, cabinet officlals or high- ranking Army officers, but the big mag- nets were Cagle, Nave and Murrell of the Army backfield and Niemiec, Chevigny and Collins of Notre Dame. “Biff” Jones’ Cadet eleven has swept through Boston University, Southern Methodist, Providence, Harvard, Yale and Depauw for successive victories. Knute Rockne’s squad, not the “supe: men" of other years, has been beatel by Wisconsin and Georgia Tech while bowling over Navy, Loyola of New Or- leans, ke and Penn State. But most of the experts, while lean- ing toward the Army, believed Rockne's team would play more foot ball than previously in the season. It is no secret that Notre Dame would rather win the Army game than any other on its sched- ule. The psychological advantage was with the Hoosiers. They have little to lose and everything to gain. Not so with the Army. 1In their long, hard journey toward national cham- ionship recognition, the Cadets are orced to consider the Notre Dame bat- tle little more than an obstacle to be hurdled. “With Nebraska and Stanford Vet to be played, the Cadets cannot make a victory the sole objective as can Rockne. Among the notables who arranged to attend were Secretary of War Dwight F. Davis, Assistant Secretary F. Trubee Davison, Maj. Gen. Charles P. Sum- merall, chief of staff, and Gen. Peyton ©. March, retired, chief of staff during the World War. Real Battle at Boston. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., November 10 (#).—For the first time since 1904, Har- vard was host to Pennsylvania today at the Harvard Stadium. The series was resumed last year at Philadelphia after a lapse of years and Penn won, 24 to 0. After Harvard and Princeton broke relations Penn took Princeton's place as the Crimson's chief opponent, next to Yale. ‘The teams are rated about equally and are among the strongest in the East, although each has been defeated twice, Harvard is heavier and has an excellent line. Penn relied on Walter Opekun, 165-pound fullback, who was recently given a regular post, and three backs who saw action against Harvard last year. Navy at Top Form. BALTIMORE, November 10 (@).— The Navy and Michigan battle today before a throng of fans in the Baltimore Stadium is the last meeting of their four-game series. Both, after early season Treverses, lcem!nlill‘y have ' found themselves. Navy, losing its first three starts by Davis-Elkins, Boston College and Notre Dame, had its goal line crossed but twice, displaying one of the greatest defenses in the country. Michigan is rated in the same class as a defen- sive aggregation, Then came the reversal. Navy, humiliated in its starts, turned on *=n rnd defeated the hitherto unscor-u-on Quakers, 6 to 0. Michigen, two weeks ieter, followed the Miudie lead and tyofled Illinois’ chance for a Big Ten ti'e by a 3-to-0 victory. Since that Penn game Navy has beaten Duke and walloped West Virginia Wesleyan by a bigger score than did either George- town or New York University. Navy for the first time this season was able today to muster full strength on the field. The Wolverines were iandicapped by the loss of Joe Gembis, p unging fullback, incapacitated through ilness. Secretary of the Navy Curtis D. Wil- bur and his staff arranged to go to the game, —_— . ST. MARY’S CELTICS ADD THREE PLAYERS ALEXANDRIA, Va., November 10.— Bt.

Brookland School sextet won the Bloomingdale division basket ball trophy while Van Ness School's dodge ball squad won the Qarfield division trophy in the dodge bal! league. It marked the first divisional cham- plonship the Van Ness squad has won in dodge ball. Wallach School, which held the trophy last year, went down to defeat, before the superior playing of the new champions this season. The latter did not lose a game during the series. Brookland won the Bloomingdale basket ball title when it defeated Lang- | don 24-4 yesterday in the critical game. Langdon had not been defeated since 1924 and was favored to win the cup once more. One more game is scheduled in this division—Keene meeting Langdon in this—but it will not affect the standing of the winners as they completed their schedule without a defeat.

SAN FRANCISCO, November 10.— Business was quiet today in the foot ball plants of big Western teams and, with two exceptions, in which Coast Conference standings were involved, either minor games were listed or oper- ations were entirely suspended. The powerful California Bears, unde= feated in conference play and tied with the University of Southern California in the champlonship race, faced action at Seattle against rivals of 24 years’ standing—the Washington Huskies. ‘With only the Huskies and then Stan- ford as obstacles in the path of at least a final tie for the title, Coach Nibs Price was prepared to throw Cali- forniw’s full strength into the breach. He was assured of plenty opposition, as Washington, although losing in its last two games. had the added incentive of meeting a traditional foe on home- coming day. Rainy weather threatened to_handicap the teams. ‘Washington State and University of California at Los Angeles were ready to thrash out gridiron differences on strange territory—Multnomah Stadium at Portland. Southern- California meets a weaker Arizona team and Stanford plays a non-conference game with Santa Clara University. Oregon, Montana, Idaho and Oregon State had no games. . RAILROAD IS ROBBED OF GRID FANS’ FARES By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, November 10.—Whatever the outcome of today's foot ball game between the Universities of Chicago and Wisconsin, the raflway receipts from the student-alumni exodus to Madison, Wis., are not what they should be. Three robbers last night ransacked the safe of the Chicago & Northwest. ern Rallroad’s city ticket office. The proceeds from the sale of hundreds of student and alumni tickets to Madison were included in the loot. Ordinarily there would be from $5.000 to $10,000 in the safe from a day's ticket sales, Ernest H.

In tabulating the number of goals kicked following touchdowns in Sat- urday’s important games the writer checked down 16 failures and 2 suc- cesstul attempts. Then he stopped. The emotions engendered by a showing 50 paltry w noi conducive to safe blood pressure. Primarily, of course, the point after touchdown' should be eliminated from the playing code. It is not a fair rule, nor a sportsmanlike rule; all it really does 15 to pay off debts. A tie following a finely played, gamely waged contest 1S not so unsatisfactory as the rules committee would have us think. If Princeton had won that Ohio game through & successful try for point, or if on the other hand Ohio had won it, there would have been a bitter tastc in the mouth of all unblased spectators. As the game was played it should havc been a tie and nothing else. Evidently there are two reasops for the failure to place kick goals. The first is mental, the second physical And both are related. Players are in- timidated by the fact that the goal post are set 10 yards back of -the goal line. They have a mental hazard which seems to bother them frightfully. And then the greater distance over which the ball has to be booted lessens the chancer of success. A drop-kick sent for the goal by an expert drop-kicker is surer than a place-kick 1if only because the man holding the ball for a place-try, as well as_the kicker, has his part to play. But because of the moving back of | the goal posts, the art of drop-kicking is dying, has in fact practically| perished. Why, the writer can remem- ber a Princeton team—it was the 19 eleven—which had six sure-shot drop: kickers in its first-string line-up. And one of them was a guard, arfother a tackle, The goal posts should come back to the line, or at least the crossbar should be over the goal line. And the point after touchdown should be kicked out of the game. BIKE STARS T0 RACE.

C, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1928 TECH IS HEAVY FAVORITE AFTER ROUTING CENTRAL AN Eastern stop Tech in their crucial game in the public high school foot ball championship series next Friday in Central Stadium? This is the question to which followers of the high school games today- are giving most thought. Impartial observers, considering Tech's 48-t0-0 sweeping victory yesterday over Central, do not believe Eastern will be able to halt the crack machine tutered by Hap Hardell. Tech, whose victory yesterday was its third in as many starts in the series and places it in a tie for the lead with Eastern, has won all its contests hand- ily. On_the other hand, the Lincoln Parkers have been hard put to eke out wins over the same teams. There was nothing fluky about Tech’s win over Central. The McKin- ley boys, outplaying their less experi- enced foes at every angle, were far su- perior all the way. It was the worst defeat ever handed Central by Tech since the teams started meeting on the gridiron 1%' 1902. Tech now has won 10 games, lost 11 and tied 5 in its bat- tles with Central. The defeat yester- day put Central out of the running for the title this Fall. Exhibiting a strong offensive and a stalwart defense, Tech started with a rush, and in the early moments pushed across two touchdowns. Another was added in the second quarter, two more in the third and a couple more, in ad- dition to a safety, in the fourth. Cen- tral was never dangerous. - Central Misses Stevens. Central, handicapped by the absence of Capt. Gene Stevens, clever little halfback, who sat on the bench with an injured rib, was powerless before the rushes of the lighter but fast and clever Tech eleven. George Mehler, Central fullback, played a whale of & defensive game, but it would l:nve taken several Mehlers to stop Tech. Eannm Florance, hard and fast little back, was the ace of the Tech attack, accounting for two of its touchdowns, but all the Maroon and Gray back- field showed strongly. Great line play by Tom Oyster, Capt. Ward ‘Oehmann and others aided the Tech backs to score big gains time and agalg, Flelding H. (“Hurry Up”) Yost, famed University of Michigan coach, was on the Tech bench upon the re- quest of Hardell, Tech coach, and & Michigan alumnus. M lotance rang up both of Tech's first two touchdowns. He counted the ini- tial one after a Tech drive that started | when St. John of Central was forced to kick from behind, Florance registered the other tally wh s he crashed the line after a pretty for-& ward pass from Driscoll to Benner had put the ball in scoring position. Substitute Scores. Tech's touchdown in the second period was hung up by Norwood, who had replaced Goss at fullback. Nor- wood hit the Central line following an- other determined - drive. Goss, coming back into the game for Norwood, and Benner registered Tech’s touchdowns in the third period. Both came after Benner blocked kicks on Central's own 25-yard line to put the ball in scoring position. Touchdowns by Holmes, Fountain and Homer Drissel and a safety accounted for Tech’s 15 points in the final period. A vpass that netted 50 yards from Drissel to Fountain accounted for the first touchdown and a 25-yard run by Drissel producec. the second. Nebel Tech, tackled St. John, Central, behind the latter's own goal line to register the safety. Drissel placed kicked four times. for the extra point after touchdowns.

INTERSECTIONAL PLAY DOESN'T INTEREST YALE NEW HAVEN, Conn., November 10 (F).—The Yale Alumni Weekly today said that Yale will not open its doors to “Intersectional” foot ball, because the team next Fall will go to Georgia to play at the opening of the stadium at University of Georgia. “What, we should object to and ex- pect, that the majority of Yale men would be with us against, would be the inauguration by Yale of “Intersectional” foot ball as‘a regular thing,” the Week- 1y will say. “yale's policy is to permit out-of-town | appearances within reason, provided | such engagements do not interfere with the college work of the partici- | pants. “The university is not at all inter- ested in matching its foot ball teams with leaders in other sections of the country for the purpose of seeing which type of game is the better. The sport is played for the good of the under- raduates and not the public, however riendly that public may be.” Charley Rich, Business right half- back, scored both his team’s touch- downs as it defeated St. John's, 12 to 6, | yesterday at the Tidal Basin. The| Cadets_counted in the second period | when Hudson went over after a march | down the field.

Symington and Motley, guards, and Close, halfback, did not accompany the squad here, and Faulconer, veteran full- back, who is here, is not expected to see service. Try for Overspin ‘When Putting 3 15 o Ten Lead Is Settled at Columbus MIDWEST CLASSI VIEWED BY 7000 Coaches Risk Reputations in Game—Crowd Attends Wisconsin Clash. s the Associated P HICAGO, November 10 —Undis- puted leadership of the rapid- ly closing Big Ten foot ball championship race was at stake at Columbus today between two undefeated elevens, Ohio State and Towa. Upward of 70,000 spectators expected to watch the clash, the headline at- traction of the Big Ten's program. Both elevens are heavyweights and both have shown such a versatile attack in their games with season against different op- ponents that the result was regarded as a toss-up. The game, barring a tie, will halt the sensational comeback campaigns of one of the respective teams’ coaches, Jack Wilce of the Buckeyes and Burt Ingwersen of Iowa. A year ago, the two mentors were under fire by aiwnul for their failures to develop winning machines, but this season their elevens have been ranking contenders for the championship. Considerable feeling was sandwiched into the fray by reports that Iowa fans had questioned the eligibility of Ohio State’s star quarterback, Alan Holman, because of ineligibility at Iowa State two years ago, but Iowa authorities denied that any protest would be made. Has Shot at Title. Hoping for a tie or an Iowa victory in the Columbus game, Wisconsin, which is undefeated but tied, was to clash with the cellar team of the con- ference, Chicago, at Madison in the other important game of the conference ' program. A victory over Chicago and an Iowa triumph over Ohio State would give the Badgers a chance to win the championship as they battle Iowa next Saturday. A deadlock at Columbus would throw the race into a triple tle. Michigan, which upset Illinois last week, carried the hope of the Big Ten in the only intersectional contest of the day—against the Navy at Baltimore. The Wolverines were underdogs for the game, but were confident. Two_other Conference games which may decide first-division berths were slated between Indiana and Minnesota, and Purdue and Northwestern. Indiana and Minnesota were badly crippled, and the Gophers were the favorites. Pur- due had a big edge over Northwestern in weight and in the line, but the Wild- cats hoped to win at Evanston through a highly polished aerial attack. % Illinois had a non-Conference en- | gagement with Butler College at In- dianapolis, to dedicate the new Butler ~ THE LONGER PUTNING DLADE MAKES (4 EASIER 10 PLACE. FACE AT RIGHT ANGLE |10 LINE OF Pu11 BY SOL METZGER. Jack White, who putted his way to a British open championship and who now makes golf clubs, made a thorough study of putting in his youth. Resolved on mastering this stroke, after several unfortunate appearances in _title events, Jack devoted a long time to analyzing it and to practicing. He came to several conclusions in addition to pointing the back of the left hand toward the hole, of tnklng the club back with the left an stroking through with the right. One was that for short putts one must crouch more over the ball than {or approach putts. Such a stance permitted more certain sighting. One point that stands to reason which White advocates is for one to select a putter with a blade long enough o he can be certain its face is at right angles to the hole when addressing the ball. A stubby put- ter will not permit this unless one's sight is quite keen. But the main discovery of White's that resulted in his stroking such a smooth puti was the bending for- ward of the wrists before stroking the ball. In other words, he found that when his hands led at contact the ball followed a smooth and even course. This wrist press really re- sults in overspinning the ball a bit, which is what good putters aim to do. To cure a habit of slicing you must first learn the ccuse.
