They have de- feated every prep school team ‘which they have encountered, bowing only {o the Catholic University and George Washington Freshmen after giving the | collegiates stern battling. In its last game before making its series debut against Tech, defend- ing public high champion, Tuesday in | one of the games of the double-header | opening title play, Business yesterday vanquished Emerson, 29 to 24, in a keenly contested tilt. Ouiscored from the foor by 11 to 10 goals, Business’ marked superiority at foul 'shooting told. The Stenogs had 16 chances from the foul line and cashed 14. After the Stenogs had gained a big margin in the early stages, Emerson rallicd to whittle their lead to a few | points at the half. Business, however, | again stepped out after the half, only | to see Emerson come back in the final | going to get within 4 points of the | Stenogs. It was at this time that Bus:- ness’ hot hand from the foul line proved particularly effective. Capt. Natie Newman and Bobby Others who may see action for Tech either at the start or during the game are Everett Russell, Jimmy Reed and Bernard Reichhardt, forwards: Jake Olverson, center, and Eddie Wills and | Mike Sklar, guards. | Coach Coggins declares that he has by no means decided upon how he will line up his Central hopefuls for the | opening whistle. Wilbur Cross and Lynn ‘Woodward, forwards; Downey Rice, cen- | ter, and Russell Lampson and Stanley | Parkins, guards, have been looked upon ! more or less as a first-string combina- tion, but there may be some radical | changes before game time Tuesday, ac- cording to Coggins. Broadbent and De Lisio, forwards and Farhood, forward or center; Brandt, center, and Korman, guard, are among other boys who have shown well for the Blue and White. Among leading members of the East- ern equad from whom Coach Guyon will select the array that will face Cen- tral when the game gets under way Tuesday are Kenny Finneran, Danny Kessler, Capt. Jimmy Ryan and Barncy Kane, forwards; Bill Noonan and Lieb. centers, and Ben Zola, Joe Robey, Billy | H Wells, Shirley, Warner, Matthews and Taylor, guards.

The Base Ball Attitude. With a view of ascertaining how they felt about the mitigation of the penalty for mistakes in other sports, I inter- viewed Mr. John Joseph McGraw, the manager of the Giants, who is noted for his tolerance of young ball players who “pull bones” every now and then. “Mr. McGraw,” I said, “do you not think that it is very unfair to penalize a base ball team for an error committed by only one player? Don't you think that this unfor- tunate ‘young man should be given another chance to attempt to catch the fly that he dropped? In the event that a ball is batted between | & second baseman’s legs, do you not think that this ball should be dead at the point where it went through the player's legs? Do you not think that the harsh penalties in- flicted by the present base ball rules tend to depress the athletes and work to blight their entire careers? Do you not think that the penalties, generally speaking, for errors in base ball should be made lighter?” “Oh, yes, indeed,” said the kindly Mr. | McGraw, “I think that the rules are altogether too harsh in the infliction of penalties for the little mistakes which you mention.

BIG NINE TOSSERS OPEN TITLE SERIES Wisconsin, Joint Holder of 1929 Title, to Oppose Northwestern. BY WILLIAM WEEKES, Associated Press Sports Writer, CHICAGO, January 4. — Another plonship campaign will be inaugurated tonight at Evanston, where Wisconsin and Northwestern will play the initial league game. For Wisconsin the contest will be the first gesture toward a second consecu- tive season at the top of the list. The Badgers shared the title with Michigan in 1929, winning 10 games and losing two. Both defeats were accomplished by Michigan, which lost two games out of 12. Northwestern and Illinois were the teams able to down the Wolverines. Northwestern finished fourth in the 1929 race, winning seven games and los- ing five, the defeats including two by ‘Wisconsin. In pre-conference games Wisconsin has kept its slate clean with four straight victories, against two triumphs and two defeats for the Wildcats in their preliminary contests. Wisconsin defeated Grinnell, Carleton, Lombard and Towa State by decisive scores, while Northwestern engaged in tougher com- petition and broke even with Notre Dame, defeated Cornell of Iowa and bowed to the undefeated Pittsburgh five. Coach Meanwell of Wisconsin ha: four veterans and one sophomore in his of Northwestern has three letter men and two sophomores. Both teams are led by star centers—Bud Foster for Wis- consin and Rut Walter for Northwest- ern. Maurie Farber and Carl Matthusen, letter men, are slated to start at forward for Wisconsin, with Ted Chmielewski, a sensational performer, and John Paul, the only sophomore on the squad, at guards. Rus Bergherm, all-conference fullback last Fall, and Bert Riel, another veteran, will play forward for Northwestern. Both regular Wildeat guards, Bob Mc- Carnes and Hal Lockhart, are sopho- mores. The former, however, is not like- ly to get into the contest, not yet hav- ing fully recovered from an attack of influenza. Red Mundy, a reserve from the 1929 squad, is slated to start at Mc- Carnes’ position. Two_other Big-nine teams will play their final pre-season engagements to- night. Chicago will attempt to become the first conference five to subdue But- ler this season, while Minnesota will en- tertain Grinnell. The Maroons face a big task in Butler, the Bulldogs having defeated Illinois and Purdue, as well as the powerful Montana State team, this season. e i 67 SCORES ARE SHOT BY DUTRA AND GUEST LONG BEACH, Calif., January 4 (#). —The last half of the 250 entrants in the Long Beach $3,500 open golf tournament will go to the tee today for an 18-hole qualifying round to shoot at the 67-stroke record hung up by Olin Dutra and Charles Guest yes- terday in leading the first group. Indications are that those of the last half will have to come within five strokes of Dutra and Guest, Southern California professionals, to qualify. Sixty-four low cards and ties will qualify, but the large number under the par 72 figure yesterday and the long list of favorites and near favorites in today's group of starters gave rise to fears that any one over par might be left in the club house at the start of the final 36 Sunday.

Apple, president of Franklin and Marshall College, today sharply disagreed with Dr. Frank Parker Day, president of Union College, who in New York last Wednesday advocated the abolition of gate receipts and paid coaches in college athletics. % Dr. Day, discussing the famous “Bulletin 23" of the Carnegie Foundation before the National Collegiate Athletic Conference, had prescribed this major operation as a drastic cure for a dangerous situation. There had been indications that'a movement for extreme meas- ures was growing among small colleges for a coalition which would remove them entirely from the “big business” operations of college sports, particularly foot ball. Dr. Apple has for many years been one of the most energetic op- ponents of professionalism in college athletics, and in 1925 wrote a series of articles in which he exposed and denounced evils incidental to scouting, pernicious activities of alumni, subsidizing of players and general overemphasis of foot ball during his many years as a college executive. FIVE COURT FRAYS ON SAME PROGRAM This series attracted national attention and was one of the causes of the founding of the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Con- ference, comprising Gettysburg, Dickinson, Muhlenburg, Ursinus and Franklin and Marshall. This conference has energetically at- tacked the supposed distortions and perversions of athletics, as disclosed in the Carnegie report issued October 24 of last year.

It will be the opening game of the season for the center lassies. Games with 130-pound class teams are sought by the Skeleton quint, which 15 booking at Columbia 562, after 5:30 p.m. Saranac A.

Spengler's HERE will be much activity on the basket ball court at the small colleges, Dr. Apple was in a po- sition to speak authoritatively on the suggestion of Dr. Day, also president of a small college, and to comment on the possibllity of a cleavage between small and large colleges in athletic affairs, Apple Sees Progress. “I do not agree with Dr. Day,” said Dr. Apple. “I have been personally ac- tive and concerned about the evils of professionalism in college athletics, but I believe progress is being made, and I do not believe that the abolition of either gate receipts or paid coaches is necessary. Foot ball is a magnificent game and I think it ought to be pre- served. I do not see how it can be preserved without gate receipts. I see nothing immoral in paid coaches, pro- vided that there is no distortion which makes their work and their pay out of all proportion to its importance. “Going back a few years, I think there has been very definite progress made in cleaning up college athletics. The tramp athlete, the ‘ringer’ of my college days, has disappeared. Higher levels of scholarship are being main- tained and a better grade of boys, for whom foot ball does not fill the entire college picture, are now matriculating.” Dr. Apple's articles of 1925 had col stituted perhaps one of the most eriti- cal and challenging assaults on the evils of college athletics ever written by college president. In view of this, was asked whether a great deal of the progress to which he referred had not come in the last four years. ‘Would Band Small Colleges. “Positively,” he sald. “I was frank in stating the dangers of the situation | as I saw them then and I can be equ starters included such familiar golfing | Mo., professional star: Johnny Farrell, | | Crossan and Heinsmann of H-K Adver- 115-pound class quint also is after con- tests.

Incidentally, the Diplomat Coffee Co., which has been holding down the stellar position in this sec- tion, has revamped its team and with King as anchor man is now going great guns. We expect to hear from this team during the second half of the season. TYPOTHETAE LEAGUE. | w. Pot. Elec. Co... 37 Nat. Cap. Press Judd_& Detw'r. Bix Print Shop. Wash_ Typog. L w. 1§ M.

Scouting still exists, but it is not the highly organized scouting it used to be. It used to be that an ambitious boy, wanting to work his way through col- lege, suffered an injustice by finding all opportunities for work going to an athlete. _If he didn't hlrpen to be an athlete he was out of luck. This is gradually being ended. and colleges are lending a helping hand to boys more on their merits, with less stress on their athletic possibilities.” Asked about the reported possibili. ties of growing alliances between small colleges, Dr. Apple said : “Personally, I think it would be much better if colleges would play other col- leges of their own class. There is tre- mendous_strain and gxcitement in a small college playing a big one, with, under the rules of the open game, a possibility of beating it. This group- ing of colleges somewhat on the grounds of even competition ought to relieve a lot of this and do something to lessen lt’he] exaggerated importance of foot all. “I am not greatly concerned about the sectional matches and the cross- country trips, although I think they might well be abandoned. It takes boys out of their classes for a long time and absorbs a vast amount of energy and thought, which might otherwise go to scholastic work. Of course, there is educational value and spectacular interest in these trips, and I am not prepared to say that they constitute a major problem. Ordinary good sense and some sense of Proj tion ought to straighten out all these problems.” ROSENBLOOM SCORES, “FOOLING” OFFICIALS BY JOHN J. ROMANO. NEW YORK, January 4.—Maxie Rosenbloom cuffed his way to a 10- round decision over Leo Lomski at Madison Square Garden last night and sort of nullified the ruling of the local boxing commission that Jimmy Slat- tery and Lou Scozza should fight it out for the right to be declared the leader 3| of the 175-pound class. Rosenbloom continues to upset the calculations of the governing bodies by beating those rated above him. Unless he suffers an official setback—a reverse decision—the public will continue to believe that he is entitled to first ranking. Against Lomski, Rosenbloom made a counter fight until he was forced to take the aggressive. Leo looked far better than the slab-stick artist for the reason that his blows carried more power. Rosenbloom does not_strike blow with his right. His cuffings are illegal. Slattery has never been ac- cused of striking an unfair punch. Rosenbloom continually cuffed and pulled Lomski about and made the lat- ter look bad. As things actually were, it was the Aberdeen battler who made the fight and caused Rosenbloom to look good. ponent round after round and made Rosenbloom show more stuff than he has in a long time. If Leo had more versatility he could have outscored his opponent, but s long as he was willing to plunge in and have Rosenbloom peck him off and cut him with a sharp left hook he was destined to lose.
