D=3 Army Foot Ball Heads to Ditch Time-Honored Power Stuff for Warner Game CARDINAL OFFENSE S BEING STUDIED West Point Has Observers in Palo Alto—Grid Jaunt Brings Change. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. EW YORK, April 24 (CPA)— | Eastward trends the course of enlightened foot ball attack. West Point, ditching all the time-honored Army power stuff, is go- ing to put on the old Warner game, lock, stock and barrel. Al observers, with the cordial per- mission of Stanford athletic authori- ties, are now in Palo Alto studying the Cardinal offense as it is being applied in Spring practice and next Fall, unless for some reason plans are radically changed, double wing backs, forma- tions A and B and all the fireworks that are involved will be shooting under the amazed ramparts of old For: Putnam. It is said that the gorm of this de- cision became implanted in the breasts of Army foot ball directors in the course of the trip home from Palo Alto last Winter. It was strengthened by the success which John McEwan has been having with this attack at Holy Cross this Spring. But chiefly the enthusiasm with which McEwan's men have taken up the new offense has been enccuraging to the coach and at the same time | has strengthened Army thorities in their determination to change their of- fense. Elements of deception, the deft thimble-rigging, the dash and the pag- eantry of movement, immediately caught the fancy of the squad at Holy Cross, so_that Sp’flng practice up there vas consistently joyous. ~ Capt. McEwan, of course, had abun- @ant opportunity for studying the Stam- ford offense while coaching at the Uni- versity of Oregon. No one in this sec- tion of the country knows more about the Warner method than McEwan and since he was an All-American West Point_center in his cadet days, subse- quently head coach there, and of course, ardent Army adherent, it "vould not be at all surprising to find him at West Point this Summer giving the cadets the advantage of his knowledge and experi- ence. The cadets did practically nothing in the way of Spring practice because so many foot ballers were engaged in other sports. But after the middle of June there will be almost a complete letdown and it is then, the writer understands, that the Army gridiron aspirants are likely to be called out for intensive in- struction. With regard to the statement about the Eastward trend of foot ball attack, the thought occurs that a correction is necessary lest some of the old Carlisle Indian players of 30 years ago descend upon the writer with scalping knives. For what old-timer can forget when Warner brought his Indians to New York to meet an all-conquering Colum- bia_eleven, sprung the double wingback and smothered the Blue and White by about 40 to 6? After the game Foster Sanford, the coach, came on the field. “I've got & way to sw‘) that attack,” he said. But it was too late then.

Big Scores Promised as Recs Take Turns in Pin Tournament BY R. D. THOMAS. UDGING by some of the scores made in the Washington City Duckpin Assoclation champion- ships, the maples at Convention Hall are nailed to the drives. If any are, they likely will be knocked loose tonight by Pop Halléy's gang of sharp- shooters from the Recreation League. Bent upon proving there was nothing flukey about the recard total of “400” sets rolled in their league this season, the Recs—nine teams of 'em—will take their turns in the tournament at 8 o'clock, sharing the mapleways with members of the Masonic, Automotive, Post Office and Interstate Leagues and H. Tait Rodier's Thursday Nighters. We also forgot to mention Dr. Tommy Rice’s Ripsnorters. Margaret Miltner, who won the na- tional singles championship in 1929, and has distinguished herself in many tournaments, is off to a promising start in quest of the all-event title of the ‘Washington Women'’s Duckpin Associa- tion, which opened its ninth annual tournament last night at the Arcadia. Paired with Irene Fisher, also a con- sistant tournament star, Mrs. Miltner shot a set of 350 to take top honors at the inaugural. Her best game was 122. Mrs. Fischer contributed 306 sticks and the pair’s total of 657 was good for the 0| lead in Class A. Rena Levy and Catherine Quigley, from whom much is expected in the postponed their tournament Bronson Quaites and Bertha Greevy teamed for a set of 636 in the Class B doubles and figures to cash. They made a flourishing finish with a game of 249, Miss Greevy showing the way with a game of 132. Of 10 teams that shot in the women's event, only one beat 1500, the War quint’ of the Federal League topping that mark by one pin due to excellent performances by Yarnell, Stine and Bradburn. W. J. La Bille’s 375, in Class B singles, is the highest set rolled so far in the men's tournament. He had a mediocre first game, but put on a sparkling exhibi- tion in the others. His scores were 104, 138 and 133. Only a few have rolled in class A singles, the best score being Joe Pricci’s 360, achieved with games of 127, 124 and 109. Don't give the police alarm if you suspect it'’s a riot in the neighborhood of alleys 37 and 38 tonight. Just Henry Rodier and his Thursday Nighters and Doc Rice’s Ripsnorters being themselves. They got that way playing golf at the| Washington Golf and Country Club. | Henry will throw a chow party for his | mates before they bowl. | Ollie Pacini, Recreation League cham- pion and candidate for a place in the “Big Ten,” will be seen on drives 43 and 44, where the Bear Cats will per- form. Nick Chaconas and Louie Pantos, Greek howitzers, will shoot singles on the same alleys. Pantos took a beating from Pacini in the Italian-Greek meet. Not a few bowling fans will fore- sake both city tournaments tonight to see the battle between Ben McAlwee's District League Cubs and the Recrea- tion Juniors of Baltimore, at the Lucky Strike. McAlwee's is the strongest young team ever assembled here and the Bal- timoreans have reason to believe they have quite as much class. Ben will use Paul Harrison, Jack ‘Wolstenholme, Hokie Smith, Tim Dun- worth and Jack Espey. Harrison and Wolstenholme each averaged 118 in the National Capital League this season. Smith shot 115 in the District League. Espey had 113 in_the District and Dunworth 108. In a midseason home-and-home geries the Cubs barely gained the decision, the Baltimore youngsters winning the ‘Washington end of the affair with a score of 2965 to 2909. McAlwee's blades won in Baltimore, 2,996 to 2,868, taking the series by a margin of 27 pins. WOMEN’S BOWLING TOMORROW NIGHT FRIDAY, APRIL 25. TEAMS—7:30 P.M. ley. Alley.
