BY PAUL B. ZIMMERMAN, Associated Pre: Lk Sports Writer. OS ANGELES, December 3.—The great Walter Hagen, five times winner of the Professional Golfers’ Association title, today will attempt a comeback on the Hillcrest Country Club course, where yesterday the Detroit professional stumbled through 36 holes of medal play which saw him all but fail to finish among the 32 qualifiers. Only the official hand of the association, which last night ordered the name of “Lighthorse” Harry Cooper struck from the list of those who had earned the right to enter “Sir Walter” from continuing the places. This was halted last night en. Alex Pirie, president of the P. G. A, ruled Cooper out on the ground that he did not qualify in his regional trials. The decision auto- matically placed Hagen, Henry Culici of Mill River, Conn., and Bill Mehlhorn, New York, among those who will compete in today’s first round. The trio had tied with Al Houghton, Rockville, Md., and Waldo Crowder, Skirtland, Ohlo, with cards of 149, but the Rockville professional was removed from the contenders on the first hole of elimination play, while Crowder drop- ped out of the fourth. Hagen Poor on Greens. Glaring irregularities in the great Halg’s putting were responsible for the showing, which saw him among the tailenders for the first time in many years of P. G. A. play. Today he faces Bob Shave of Aurora. Ohio, who quali- fied well up in the list with 145. Hagen's chances were swinging in the balance, Fred Morrison of Los Angeles was stroking his way to a great 136, 4 points better than Leo Diegel, defending champion. The tall Midwick Country Club professional turned in a 71 for his morning round, but came E:k with a startling 55 to gfi a com- record in Y.; John Golden, Paterson, N. J.. and Tony Manero, New York, finishing in a tie for third, one stroke behind the titleholder from Agua Caliente. Because of his remarkable showing 3 rose to the heights as a potential candidate for “Larruping Leo's” crown, but Joe Kirkwood, Phila- delphia professional, who qualified with a 147, was expected to give him a match today because of his su- tournament_experience.

Houghton tied late yesterday with four others and lost on the first hole of a lengthy playofl. Fred McLeod of the Columbia Country Club, who was far out of qualification range in the pro match play title chase, will remain in California to take part in several of the tourneys listed for the Pacific Coast during the Winter. Houghton tied at 149 with Walter Henry Ciuci, Bill Mehlhorn and Crowder for one of the last two I g the clubs of the star Harper club pro, but his putter slumped badly in the afternoon and he took a 78 for a total of 149. Houghton was certain 150 or better y, and even though six greens in the after- noon h;:tu mdelgt he:u in. 'rh; scores ge! ywer, however, an finally he was involved in a five-place tie for the last two places. Fred McLeod ran into all sorts of trouble and never was near qualifica- tion. He followed a mediocre 76 in the morning round with a worse 78 in the afternoon for a total of 154, which was nllx strokes too high to be sure of a place. ‘There’s a humorist on the staff of Tae Tee, the official publication of the Washington Golf and Country Club. He says in the paper, which was re- ceived today, that “very few courses on the North Atlantic seaboard have Winter golf of the character afforded at our club.” Perhaps he means the sleet takes on a peculiar formation which is certain to add 40 yards to the tee shot. And he jocularly adds that “at present conditions are almost ideal.” ‘Wonder what he means by that? Pifty per cent of the membership of the Washington club have handic: of 19 or less and as many have hant caps over 19, according to a_tabulation of handicaps made by D. R. Elmore. SCOTT-VON PORAT GO INTRIGUES RING FANS BY JOHN J. ROMANO. NEW YORK, December 3.—Another great international upheaval is about to take place. With the foot ball sea- son at its close, sports fans are turn- ing their eyes to an arena smaller than the fields. They are looking to xing rings to produce a world heavyweight champion. ‘The first decisive move toward the goal is the approaching battle between Otto von Porat and Phil Scott, who recently defeated the giant Vittorio Campolo. ‘The Von Porat affair GRIFFITHS YEARNING FOR SHARKEY BOUT By the Assoclated Press.

Notre Dame Gets Royal Welcome at Home. BY HERBERT W. BARKER, Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, December 3.—Of all the sports on the calendar foot ball seems to have the hardest time making a graceful exit. By all that is just and con- siderate, the gridiron sport should be content now to take a back seat until next Fall, but no other pastime, indoor or outdoor, can hope to cope with the din created by arguments over all America sclections, comments on coach- ing and schedule changes, not to mention the varied discussions over Towa's battle to retain its place in “he Western Conference. Hockey, basket ball, boxing, all were lost in the rush yesterday as one bit of foot ball news after another crept into the headlines. Hard upon the heels of Charley Crowley’s resignation as Columbia coach, Lou Young of Pennsylvania announced he had declined to serve another year as coach of the Red and Blue. Young will become assistant to Sydney E. Hutch- inson, chairman of the Penn Athletic Council. Prominently mentioned as possible successors were Lou Little of George- town, Bert Bell, Lou Jourdet and Har- old Gaston, all connected now or for- merly with Penn foot ball. Glenn S. Warner of Stanford also figured in the discussion as he has in the case of Columbia, where it is un- derstood Herb McCracken of Lafayette and Dick Hanley of Northwestern have the inside track for Crowley’s job. At the same time, Arnold Horween announced he would return to coach Harvard foot ball for another vear. The Crimson has excellent prospects for next year and that may have influenced Horween to agree so readily to return to Cambridge. Horween's announce- ment came as the Crimson selected Ben Ticknor, great center, as captain of the 1930 array. Some 3,000 students and townsfolk gathered at South Bend to give a great ovation to the Notre Dame Ramblers upon their return home from their de- feat of the Army at New York. Knute Rockne, perforce was not there, but held an informal reception at his home, where he is being treated for a leg in- fection. Arrangements for the annual Rose Bowl classic at Pasadena New Year day still await the names of the com- batants. For the West Coast California, Southern California and St. Mary's ap- pear to be the lending candidates. The opposition probably will come from Pittsburgh, Tulane or Colgate, in view of an apparent unwillingness of Notre Dame to ng its n marked by nine grucling battles in a row. Figures compiled from among 146 representative colleges revealed that the country’s average team scored 1369 points during the season, the highest on record. FOUR BOXING MEETS SCHEDULED BY 6. W. With four meets scheduled and two others pending, the George Washington University boxers are fighting it out for places on the varsity team. On January 25 the Colonials will take on Washing- ton and Lee at Lexington. They will battle Catholic University February 5 at Brookland, Manhattan College at G. W. February 22, and Penn Military at Chester, Pa., March 8. Meets are pend- ing with West Virginia and Bucknell. Buck Green is the Colonial ring coach and he appears well supplied with ma- terial. Max Jeweler, star of the fresh- man basket ball team last season, has given up that sport for boxing and has won the 118-pound class assignment, with Leverton as his understudy. Harry Kleinman, who won five of six bouts for New York University last Winter, will represent the Colonials in the 126-pound division. Phil Rosen and Dave Cohen are his subs. Leo Coveleskie of the Knights of Co- lumbus team, is the leading 135-pound- er, with Red Boyle and Maicom Mac Gregor showing promise. Bill Phillips, Jerry Polonitza and Jaci: Ward are close rivals for the 145-pound place. Bill Stanley, who has done some battling for the City Club, is the out- standing 160-pounder, with Happy Atherton the runner-up. Ed Crandall, foot ball player, appears to be the best heavyweight.

BASKET BALL MEETING CALLED BY A. A. U. HERE A meeting of the basket ball com- mittee of the Distriet of Columbia As- sociation of the A. A.

Contract Still To Go a Year; Little Knows of No Change ‘If Lou Little, director of athletics and head foot ball coach at George- town University, is to leave his post here for a foot ball job elsewhere, he knows nothing of such a move. ‘There have been persistent rumors that Little would be “through” at the Hilltop after this college year, and now ’tis said he will accept a foot ball coaching job at Pennsyl- vania or Columbia. But this is all news to Lou, it seems. “I know nothing more of these matters than what I have read in the papers,” said Little this morning. “Neither Penn nor Columbia has made overtures to me, nor have 1 been in communication with either regarding a coaching job. FPurther- more, my contract with Georgetown do;a not expire until December 31, 1930, Father Joseph T. O'Brien, facuity athletic representative at George- town, knows nothing of any con- templated change by Little, and when questioned as to the rumors, only mentioned that the athletic di- rector's contract with the university still had more than a year to run. TERRAPINS ALL SET FOR GREAT EFFORT Maryland University, hopeful of stop- ping the winning streak of Western Maryland, which has scored 10 straight victories, will be at its strongest when the battle is fought Saturday in the Bal- timore Stadium. Off to a poor start and held back through most of the season by injuries, the Terrapins at least are primed to the full and eager to cut loose with all their power. A long drill was on tap today. Curley Byrd put his charges through a stiff session_yesterday in the cold rain and mud. He cautioned them against over- confidence, the Terrapins having be- come a trifle cocky after beating Johns Hopkins Thanksgiving day, 39 to 6, without exerting themselves. Al Heagy. end, and Skinny Madigan. center, have recovered from minor hurts. They could have played against Hopkins, but were saved for the Green Terrors, who number Georgetown Uni- versity among their victims. MANY SEEK CHANCE IN RING AT SHIRES By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, December 3.—Charles Ar- thur (The Great) Shires will encounter no difficulty " in obtaining opponents when he makes his debut as a profes- sional boxer. In fact, Charles Arthur would hardly have time to look after his basket bali duties, if he agreed to meet all who have applied to Promoter Jim Mullen for the assignment of fighting him. Murray, ‘captain and tackle of the Chicago Bears pro foot ball team, and Merle ', Chicago Cardina: tackle, have put in earnest bids for bouts with Charles Arthur. In addition, a great number of policemen, firemen and day laborers have placed challenges with Mullen., Shires, who is training for his initial appearance against any opponent to be named l;y Mullen, is characteristically }I geeting into shaj he id, “I'm .” he said, “and I'll knock & lot of those bums legged.” bow-] Middle West Supremacy. HE supremacy of the Middle West in foot ball this season was clearly established both as o range, quality and quantity. Consider first the Middle West and the East. Wisconsin beat Colgate, one of the best of the Eastern teams. Notre Dame beat Navy and. Carnegie Tech before tackling the Army. Chi- cago beat_Princeton. Michigan beat mu‘d‘ hnélng}.l 'I'ae‘l’t me‘ Army. De- crushes ‘est Virginia and Mar- O eRinat. this ahaving. Bl nst showing Pittsburgh beat Ohio State and the Army beat Ohio ‘Wesleyan. What about other intersec- tional games? Against the Far West Notre Dame beat Southern California, and Chicago, well out of the running in the Western Conference, beat Washing- ton 26 to 6, after Washington had held Stanford and California to 6 points each. Purdue beat the Kansas Aggles, one of the strongest of the Missouri Valley circuit. Against_this Oregon State beat Detroit. The South fared no better, Minnesota beat Vanderbilt, one of the strongest teams in the South. Notre Dame ran away from Georgia ‘Tech. On the basis of results the Middle West won about 90 per cent of its games against the Far West, South and East. ‘This doesn’t allow much room for argument, although argument will break out in a number of spots. All the facts and final scores and actual results in the world won't stop them from argu- ing. There is nothing so biased and prejudiced and vehement as a foot ball fan of any sort or any description. Certainly of the three strongest teams in the United States the Middle West had two of them in Notre Dame and Purdue. The other was Pittsburgh. Another Angle, Against this it can be stated that for the first time in many seasons the East played a more interesting type of foot bail than the Middle West. The East was more daring, more versatile in its attack, - There are few big games in the conference that carried such action, va- riety and the same swirl of continued interest as one saw in the Yale-Dart- mouth and the Yale-Army and Har- vard-Yale games. At least this was the report of Midwestern rooters who know foot ball and who happened to have seen these three games, or at least one of the three. Midwest defense was stronger and Midwest attack was in a narrower, less chance-taking groove. The conference had no passers to match Wood of Harvard or Cagle of the Army, and no broken fleld run- ners quite up to Marsters, Booth, Cagle and Uansa. ‘What the Middle West had was a conservative soundness that won games, plus its full share of man power. Pitts- burgh also had this with exceptional material—possibly more star foot ball players than any team in the country with a high class coach in Jock Suther- land. It is doubtful if any other team had as many consistent stars as Uansa. Parkinson, Donchess, Montgomery, Di- moleo and Fox. Tough Year on Star Backs. all gepsons on star backs.

HICAGO, December 3—Iowa’s chances of being restored to good standing in the Western Conference appeared brighter today. ‘With declarations by three confer- ence athletic directors—A. A. Stagg of Chicago, Fielding H. Yost of Michigan and George Huff of Illinois, said to have been aligned to subject Iowa to further discipline—that they have nothing to do with the Iowa case, it appeared that the school needed only to present evidence that it has thor- oughly cleaned house in its athletic department. This, Jowa officials have been saying for several months, has been done. Disposal of the case, the three di- rectors of athletics said, was in the hands of the faculty committe on ath- letics. The representatives of the three schools on ‘the faculty body all dis- claimed any desire to affirm Iowa's expulsion from athletic competition. Frederic Woodward, vice president of the University of Chicago, and its mem- ber on the faculty’ committee, said his vote would be cast on the basis of developments at the meeting. “ Prof. A. C. Callen, representative of the University of Illinois, indicated his stand was the same, as did Prof. Ralph W. Aigler of the University of Michi- gan. No Suspension ¥ot. Huff sald Illinols’ vote was entirely up to Prof. Callen, and Stagg sald he hadn't even talked to Woodward about the case, and certainly hadn't band- ed with Huff wnd Yost. Yost’s only comment was that it was his understanding that Iowa had never been suspended. He belleved the faculty committee had ordered Iowa to clean up, or drastic action would be taken at the meeting, with severance of athletic relations to be ef- fective January 1, if the school failed to show it had complied with the com- mittee's suggestions. Other matters, besides the troubles of Towa, will receive attention at the,con- ference meeting Friday and Saturday. ‘The question of barring all transfers from other schools from athletic com- petition in the Big Ten will be con- sidered. The rule now permits a stu- dent to transfer, remain out of com- petition one year, then compete if he has not recelved a degree. EASTERN VS. GONZAGA GRID GAME CANCELED | Because of the bad condition of the Eastern High field as the“result of the rain and sleet the foot ball game sched- uled this afternoon between Eastern and Gonzaga has been abandoned. This means that these old rivals will not get together on the gridiron this season for the first time in several years.

In the final rankings Banker of Tulane and McEver of Tennessee, two of the best that foot ball can show from any section, must face the handicap of somewhat weaker sched- ules, as compared to those who had to tackle from flve to seven hard opponents, week after week. And it makes a big difference, either to an individual or to a team, when he is called upon to face rugged, high class opposition week after week with little rest. N . There was a day and time when the foot ball season at this date could be considered over and washed up.

More than 20 offighals, coaches and sports writers of the West aided in the selections. From a speedy, fighting aggregation of linesmen and a fieet backfleld on the mythical All-Coast team, Roy Riegels, California captain and center, loomed above them all. After committing one of foot ball's biggest “boners” by run- ning 75 yards in the wrong direction last New Year day in Pasadena, Riegels came back this season. Twenty-three out of 25 placed him at center. Two of Riegels’ teammates, Bennie Lom, halfback, and Schwarz, guard, also were given positions on the All-Coast eleven. The line-up for the first team: Ends—Tappaan, Southern California; Muller, Stanford. Tackles—Ackerman, St. Mary's; Colbert, Oregon. Guards— Schwarz, California; Barrager, Southern California.

It was felt that as treasurer of the Public High School Athletic Association and President of the Athletic Association of Central he was being called upon to do enough in an athletic way, Kimble has tutored the Central base ball squad off and on for some years.
