Beaten Business Team Proves Its Grit : Surprise Puts Over Great Grid Plays STENOGS FIGHT ALL WAY WHEN CENTRAL WINS, 31.0 hck of Heft and Experience and Poor Punting Count Heavily Against Losers, Who Are Eliminated From Title Race. BY EDWARD A. FULLER, Jr. T is not so much the victors but the vanquished who are receiv- ing the bouquets today folluwln% | score had it used its regulars thr however, was expected and was n over Business. The Blue and defeat put Business definitely out of the title running with two defeats in as many starts and made Central’s series record one win and one loss. Business’ gallant fight against overwhelming odds was the color- | ful feature. Hopelessly outplayed by a heavier and more experienced | foe, the valiant Stenogs, light, young and unseasoned, most of them, were certainly not outgamed. There was almost a touch of Business boys kept up the grim fig] They were indeed “down, but never out” The exhibition al- most made one wonder if there should not be a regulation prohib- iting the meeting of teams so manifestly unmatched. But Busi- | ness assuredly would never have listened to such a proposal. It unquestionably would have been in there battling as desperately if its opponents had been twice as heavy and as big. As it was, Busi- ness never got inside Central’s 20- yard line. Against the Central second-stringers, | most of them lightweights, Business looked not so bad, but the regular Blue and White had no difficulty in gaining consistently. Larry Pinckney, big Cen- tral line-crashing fullback, went through the Stenog defense almost as though it were paper. Pinckney accounted for 13 of his team’s points, scoring two touchdowns and rushing the ball across for the only extra point registered by his team. Cumberland, second-string quarterback, and Bunnie Casassa, regular left end, each counted one touchdown, and a r.u from Cumberland to Rose, reserve eft halfback, brought the other. Rose and Cumberland’s work on attack and ‘Bannerman’s defensive play were other features of Central's play. All three are reserves. Bill Duryee, quarterback, was the outstanding Business player. He got away for several good runs. But the other Stenog backs were unable to get anywhere. Business was severely handi- capped by lamentably poor punting. A couple of the Stenog boots went up in x!hemllx' and backward and all were eeble. Poor Kicks Hurt. PFrom the outset it was plain that Coach Lynn Woodworth’s charges were no match for Central. Soon after the Blue and White had kicked off to start the game Business was unable to gain and Biondi got off a poor punt that gave Central the ball on the Stenogs’ 20-yard line. Business recovered the ball on downs on the 17-yard line, but after Duryee and Biondi had gained 9 yards, the latter again kicked, his effort this time going almost straight into the air and backward. Getting possesion of the ball on the Business gzllrd line, Rose stepped 8 yards and Cumberland twisted over the goal Jine. It was no touchdown, however, Central being ruled offside; and recelv- ing a 5-yard penalty. Cumberland then to Rose over the goal line ness back a kick-off for 30 yards and Sin- clair and Duryee then made it another first dowh, Central recovered the ball and Rose circled left end for 15 yards. At this point Business was penalized 15 yards for holding, and on the next play Cumberland went off tackle for b yards and his team’s second touch- down. Cumn})erhng"-mdmp kick for 1t again flivvere wever. m"l"wo more Blue and White touch- downs were added in the second period with the Central first-stringers taking & leading part in thelr manufacture. Shortly after the period started Duryea ripped off a gain of 27 yards on two dashes for Business to bring the ball into Central territory. At this stage Coach Ty Rauber sent in a flock of Central regulars and the Business of- fense was promptly halted. Sabatini intercepted a Stenog pass and ran 18 yards before he was brought down. ‘Then Hinkel went off tackle for 35 yards, following which there were a couple more runs to put the ball on the Busi- ness 15-yard line, from where Pinckney crashed through to the Blue and White's | third touchdown. A rush for the extra point failed. A Soft Touchdown. It was only a short time later when Murray, Central lineman, blocked a Business kick, but Business recovered on its own 5-yard line. A second Stenog kick was then blocked and Bunnie Ca- sassa, Central end, fell on the ball b(-‘ hind the Business goal for another touchdown. Pinckney rushed over for the extra point, the first to be made by | Central. The half ended with Central’s lead 25 to 0. ‘With its second stringers again on the job Central continued to carry the fight to the Business gamesters in the second half, but did not have quite enough drive to score. Early in the period the Blue and White, after getting the ball on a poor Business kick, reached the Business 5-yard line on runs by Graves, Feldman and Cumberland. Cumberland then smashed through to the Stenog goal, but it was no touchdown as Cen- tral was declared offside and recetved a 5-yard penalty. Business then held and kicked, but Central came right vack to again work the ball to the Stenog 5-yard strip. Here the Stenog defense again stiffened and Duryee rushed the ball 25 yards to get the ball out of danger. Late in the period Weitz for Business recovered a punt on Cen- tral's 30-yard line where the Stenogs opened a desperate but futile passing attack. Central chalked up its fifth and final touchdown late in the final period after Rauber had again inserted his regu- lars. Pinckney once more went over, crashing through from the 17-yard mark for his second touchdown. Pinck- ney had put the ball in the range of the enemy goal by intercepting an alien pass shortly before.

The game gave Coach Mike Kelley of the Lincoln Parkers opportunity to get a good line on his second-string material under fire. Ralph Shackleford, halfback, was easily the best player on the fleld, mak- ing all five of Eastern's touchdowns.

By the Associated Press. ORTLAND, Oreg., November 2.— P ‘With six strokes separating the leader from his nearest rival, the third and final round of the $1,200 Oregon open golf cham- pionship remained before the contend- ers at the Columbia Country Club course here today. Eighteen holes were to be played by the 51 contestants in the morning and 18 after noon. Horton 'Smith, young professional from Joplin, Mo., is the shot-maker who has found the hazards and traps of the Columbia course most to his liking. In two brilliant performances Smith circled the lengthened cham- plonship course in 67s, bettering par by five strokes on each occasion to turn in the lowest qualifying score, 134. Added to the physical hazards of the course yesterday were a high wind, which took other contestants’ shots everywhere save where they belonged, ;M. at times, a virtually impenetrable 0g. Next to Smith in low scores were Mortle Dutra, Tacoma, and Walter Hagen, British open champion, with 140. Dutra shot a 69 on the first round Thursday and 71 “yesterday, while “The Haig” bagged & 71 and a 69. “Lighthorse” Harry Cooper, Buffalo, N. Y., was 2 under Olin Dutra of Los Angeles, Tommy Armour of Detroit and Ed Dudley of Delaware .with 141, Frank Dolp, Portland, led the ama- teurs with 145 and was followed by Dr. P. F. Willing, also of this city, with 148. STARTS BASKET BALL. Company I, 12th Infantry, of Fort ‘Washington, Md., has its basket ball team ready to meet Washington quints. Sunday contests particularly are wanted. Challenges are being received by Lieut. McNair at National 8035. Western Apt to Strengthen For Grid Tussle With Tech| ESTERN, the only team given a chance to stop the pen- & nantward rush of Hap Hardell's Tech eleven in the public high school foot ball series, expects to be able to present a considerably stronger line-up when it meets the McKinley team Tuesday in the Central Stadium than it has been able to place on the field in previous series games. It is the hope of Western that it will gain 11 players heretofore ineligible scholastically. The marks for the past advisory were turned in by teachers yesterday. The ban on ineligibles who have passed will be lifted Monday. Brownfield and Webb, halfbacks; Grieve, guard and_ tackle; Everett Buscher, end, and Bloyer, back, are regarded as. the pick of those who may be declared eligible for ilny at Western. Lawrence Buscher, tackle; Byrd, Kayne and Corcoran, backs; Haywood, end, and Daly, center, are others who may be gained and who could be used to advantage on the Red and White squad. Of the whole bunch, Brownfleld. in view of his experience, probably is the best bet, but he has a bad shoulder and Coach Dan - Ahern is - not certain whether he can stand the gaff. Should Brownfleld become _eligible and be found in passable physical shape, he. along 'with Draper and Millard, will round out a pretty sweet backfleld, even though Draper and Millard are far from in good condition as the result of in- juries. One player, Dan Murphy, half- back, is expected to be lost to Western as the result of the new marks. Leadin Grid Elevens Tackle Sturdy Foes This Afternoon BY WILLIAM J. CHIPMAN, Associated Press Staft Writer. EW YORK, November 2.— Dartmouth and Pittsburgh had different tasks today in efforts to remain in the vanguard of Eastern elevens. Pittsburgh was favored over Ohio State in the battle of Pittsburgh, but Dartmouth has picked out no soft afternoon for itself in meeting Yale and Algie Booth before a crowd of 76,000 in the bowl. If either Pittsburgh or Dartmouth should falter, Cornell hoped to dash to the head of the column through a vic- tory over Columbia. prepa with the Palace Athletic Club. CAPT.

Princeton remained something of a favorite over Amos Alonzo Stagg's Chi- cago cohorts at Palmer Stadium, but Harvard was no such choice over Florida. The Navy was a favorite over Pennsylvania, but with the feeling that Penn might have a surprise in store. Georgetown and New York University fight it out at the Yankee Stadium. Fordham and West Virginia were idle in anticipation of their own game against each other at the Polo Grounds on_election day. Penn State invaded Syracuse.

Three Big Games in Mid-West. CHICAGO, November 2 (#).—Three games, all of them involving the cham- plonship situation, claimed most of the attention of Western Conference foot ball enthusiasts today. The Tilinois-Northwestern contest at | Evanston was expected to prove the most bitter of the day, with the Illini fighting to remain in the championship race, and the Wildcats after their first triumph over Tllinois since 1912. Purdue was at Wisconsin confident of adding another victory to its col- | lection toward the title. Triumphant over Michigan and Chicago, the Boiler- makers appeared too tough for the Badgers. who have failed to fulfill early- season promise. Minnesota. possessing a great attack, was not exnected to have' mnch diffi- culty with Indiana. a'though the Hoos- fers anpear to be on the up-grade after a disheartenina start this season.

ATLANTA, November 2 (#)—South- ~rn foot ball fans today divided atten- tion between efforts of four conference teams to keep their family reccrds un- sullied and endeavors of another pair to_conauer in intersectional battles. Headlining the program within the circle are the Vanderbilt-Alabama clash Regardless of how matters finally shape up at Western, Hap Hardell, Tech coach, has let it be known that he has a wholesome respect for the boys in Red. Last Fall Tech drubbed Western, 33 to 0, but the year before turned the trick by only 6 to 0. Tech does not expect to gain or lose mate- rially with regard to the new scholastic ratings. Coach Ty Rauber is fearful that the new marks may cost him some of his valuable Central gridironers though at the same time there is believed to e a good chance that the Blue and White will e augmented by some formidable talent. Wilbur Cross, a clever back, is among those Central is hoping will be declared eligible, Eastern expects to gain the services of Chester Miles, an experienced center, and Ralph Shackleford, promising half- back, and to lose no players of appre- ciable worth. Miles, if he makes the grade, probably will replace John Nally at center. A half-dozen or so badly needed play- ers may be gained by Business. Jack Reichardt and Garner, backs; Loftus, tackle; Donnan and Hyman, guards, and Mills, end, are Stenogs :ho may be available beginning Mon- ay. ‘Though displaying tight defense, Emerson bowed to William and Mary's freshman eleven, 0 to 13, yesterday at ‘Willlamsburg, Va. ‘The Little Indians scored their first touchdown in the second period, when Marks crashed through center for six yards, and chalked up their second late in the final quarter, when Roberts grabbed a punt in midfield and ran 50 yards through the whole Emerson team. Holligan kicked the goal. Jackie Lewis, Stenog left halfback, on the first play of the game, ran 40 yards before being downed. Emerson took the field at the start of the game as follows: Buscher, left end; Sutton, left tackle; 8hugrue, left guard: Symington, center; Albert, right guard;West. right tackle; Forney, right end; Trilling, quarter- back; Lewis, left halfback; Cabell, right halfback, and Kilroy, center. Brooks, Morris, McDonald, Taylor and Longest were substitutes used by the Capital City eleven, Zuppke Is Hoping To Beat Wildcats BY SOL METZGER. ‘This fellow Zuppke knows his foot ball onions when it comes to getting _players into the interfer- ence. Needless to say, when that can be done and the interferers know how to knock the legs out from under opposing tacklers, a combination exists that is hard to beat. So to Zup's off-tackle crash, the play that hits like the kick of a dozen indignant Missouri mules. The man in motion before the ball, the No. 3 back, goes right after the defensive end in this case. There is no bluff about what he does, as there is in other systems of play. Helping him on this job is back No. 2, while No. 4 jams into the de- fensive tackle with his right end. ‘That accounts for all of the Il nols backs. But where’s the inte ference, one may well ask?

COLUMBUS, Ga., November 2.— Tulane’s mighty Green wave continued its surge toward the Southern Con- ference championship here vesterday by winning a hard-fought battle from the University of Georgia, 21 to 15. The Greenles twice came from behind to lead, after Georgia's “terrible sopho- mores” had pushed out in front. After a close first period, at the end of which Tulane led, 7 to 2, Georgia punted to Tulane as the second period opened. On the second play Armstrong of Tulane broke off tackle for 65 yards and a touchdown. Banker added the extra point with a place kick. Waugh went in for Georgia and re- turned the kick-off 41 yards. Aided by a 5-yard penalty he made first down on Tulane’s 22-yard line. The Green line stiffened and threw Georgia back to the 38-yard line, from where a triple pass, Waugh to Schondler to Smith, scored a touchdown. Smith added the extra point with a place kick, making the score, Tulane, 14; Georgia, 9. Tulane then opened up with a passing attack and after two tosses completed, Roberts of Georgia inter- cepted one and ran 60 yards to a touch- down as the half ended. Waugh missed the extra point from placement, giving Georgia a 15 to 14 lead. Tulane drove to Georgla's 35-yard line in the third period, where Banker fumbled and Georgia recovered. David- son and Waugh carried the ball to Tulane territory, but the line stiffened and a pass grounded in the end zone gave the Greenies the ball. Tulane, using straight foot ball, ex- cept for two 10-yard passes, then marched 80 yards to a touchdown. Banker went over for the marker from the 2-yard line and added the extra point from placement.

Keck had been very successful at kicking placement goals all Fall and, with 10 seconds to go, a kick seemed the obvious play. Lourie got down on one knee to re- ceive the ball from the center. Keck | stood back, carefully poised, to make the kick. Every one in the stands held his breath. Keck Star Interferer. pass to Lourie, who put the ball to the ground. Keck ran up, made a fake to kick, but instead ran by the ball and took out the Yale end. In a flash Lourie was on_his feet racing toward the Yale goal. Keck had cleared the path up to the line of scrimmage. Keck, by the way, was the best interfering iineman I have ever seen. He also figured prom- inently in the play against Harvard. Lourie dodged both the Yale fullback and safety man, and planted the ball behind the Yale goal posts. Time was up before the play was over, but, of course, the touchdown counted and we kicked out goal. is play succeeded for three rea- sons. First, it was unexpected. The Yale players expected the kick and were intent on blocking it. ' Second, Keck’s beautiful interference got Lourie be- yond the line of scrimmage, and third, Lourie gave a wonderful exhibition of running. In the Harvard-Princeton game of 1921 the score was 3-0 in ard’ favor, with about four minutes to play. inceton had the ball in midfield.

Again it was the unexpected that worked. When the ball was passed back to Snively, Lourle and the Princeton ends raced down field as fast as they could.

The Harvard end who had dropped back came up to head him off. Keck, who. was captain of the Prince- ton team, came out of the line and took the Harvard end. This gave Gilroy his start. When he got to within about five “yards of the side lines he turned and started down fleld. His move toward the side lines had forced the Harvard backs to change their direction, and when Gilroy turned and started down field, they had to change again. This gave Gilroy a sec- o;u':"a advantage, and he made good use It then became a race. If the Har- vard plnien could run Gilroy out of bounds, he would be stopped. Gilroy was not normally a very fast runner, but I have never seen any one run faster on the foot ball field than he did on that play. I doubt if he could run as fast again, Gilroy crossed the goal line a frac- tion of a second ahead. It was a great run. As I said, the unexpéctedness -of | the pass contributed largely to its suc- cess. The Harvard players expected s long pass and played to stop one. Keck’s interference was also a big help. In the-Princeton-Yale game, at New Haven, in 1925, Yale won the toss and took the wind at its back. The wind was blowing a gale. Yale played a kick~ ing game and soon had us with our backs to the wall. Luckily, we staved off a touchdown that quarter, and when time was called, Princeton held the ball on about its own 25-yard line. We now had the wind, and Slagle dropped back as if to punt. The punt was the obvious play. Instead the Princeton quarterback called for a run, Slagle got' the ball, made a motion as if to punt an then started for the end. Beautiful interference took out the ¥ale e:\d'lnd tackle. This gave Slagle his start. He dodged his way through the Yale backfleld and passed them all except the safety man, who was taken out. ‘This gave Slagle a clear field to the goal line. Allen, Yale fullback, was hot on his tracks, but Slagle managed to out- distance him and threw himself across the goal line after the most spectacular run I have ever seen. Here again the fact that Yale expect-. ed a punt helped Slagle a great deal. .
