SPORTS. Two Great Grid Teams in Louisiana : Army’s New Eleven Is Hard to Reorgamze TULANE ANDL 5.0 LOOKTO OWNTILT Oid Rivals on Thanksgiving Day Have Many Battles Prior to Then. BY H. C. BYRD. OWN in Louisiana are two foot ball teams that have good prospects, and both are girding themselves largely for the test against each other on Thanksgiving day. They are Louisiana State and Tulane. Indications are that both schools should have exceptionally strong teams, and the main objective each has is to whip the other. The Louisiana State-Tulane game is in about the same class in that section as the Harvard-Yale game in New England. Tulane was rated last season as about the strongest team in the South, and i is said that its outlook this Fall is just about as good as it was a year ago. Bome of its best regular backs of last season were lost by the New Orleans school, but it has in uniform six of its seven linemen and material from its freshman and reserve squads, which a set of backs should be organ- fzed nearly equal to that of Wwhich Banker was the star. Tulane probably will not have any individual back as good as Banker, who was almost in a class by himself, but there are other factors which are likely to make up for that difference.

'WINCHESTER, Va., September 10.— e-udu-us for Handley School's lhhn(A [ ] BY SOL METZGER. ‘The story of Bob Zvake. painter of lurid landscapes and lover of the spectacular in foot ball, is an amaz- ing one. Never a varsity man at Wisconsin but a hard working and much-bumped-about scrub, Bob got himself a job coaching the Oak Park H. S. team in Chicago. Where- upon foot ball looked him over and pronounced him sound. He was nthered unto Illinois. One of the main reasons why the “Little Napoleon of the Gridiron” became a full-fledged college coach with a most enviable record today is the play shown here. It went like a house afire at Oak Park. It was a step forward in foot ball strategy, one so sound that Illinois may spring it at any time when the ing is hot, just as they uncork the famous “flea flz‘fl"” ‘which 3ob also line.

BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR. P EY, boy come here!” called a motorist as he spotted a lively figure sauntering along the - Washington - Baltimore boulevard at College Park. “Can you tell me where the Tech foot ball players are practicing, son?” the motorist asked. He explained that his boy was on the McKinley squad. “They work out over there,” said the “boy,” pointing to a field in the Uni- versity of Maryland Stadium a short distance away, but theyve finished practice.” And with that the “boy” flung up the road and leaped aboard a collegiate auto which was careening wildly along toward the university dormitories.

But it was nobody else. Hardell is full of pep out at the Old Line school these days as he sends his charges through their training stunts. The Tech squad, which has been training at Maryland since Sep- tember 2, will return to Washington Saturday to continue practice in the new McKinley Stadium. “I may be feeling rrut, but dont think that's because I figure Tech is going to have a great foot ball team,” piped Hap. “But mp. yuuvg sure got s husky bunch out 1t 1looks un there \ must be some mighty good boys am them,” observed this reporter mm visited the Tech rendezvous yesterday. “‘Yeh, maybe if he had a backfield and a line, a kicker, a passer and a pass received—any of these—we might do something. But we have none of ‘em,” countered Hap. s Pinned down, as much as he gan be pinned down, Hardell finally admitted his backfleld material looked not so bad, but insisted that his line material was terrible. “Every line job is wide open,” said B e e ety e e open when, we - ing,” h;: ndde%: o Whatever “Hap” may say, though, there is "nhot quutktm] lmt &m having some mighty sweet lool on the squad. lnc!udln. s, Al 6 bucka John Gormley, center, nnd Sid Kolker, tackle, and Luther oo&- ™ Finding b quarte Inding a capable center, T~ back and pass thrower and receiver are “Hap’s” main problems though he must virtually rebufld his line.

EST POINT, N. Y., Sep- tember 10.—It's hard to recognize the current edition of Army’s foot ball machine, what with new di- rection, new faces and new rai- ment. Red Cagle, the agile red rover, has moved away along with Hertz Murrell, his plunging partner, and Buster Perry, the thundering tackle. Biff Jones has shifted his military base to Oklahoma, and even the vivid golden jersies have been changed in favor of the more for- mal black with gold piping. Only the setting on the plains is the same and the caliber of the men who go to make up Army’s yearly challengers for na- tional supremacy. Maj. Ralph Irvine Sasse of Wilming- ton, Del, Jones’ successor a&s head coach, has gone over completely to the Warner school of foot ball as expound- ed by the old master, “Pop” himself, at Stanford. The Cadets this year will start their charges from the familiar wing-back formations developed first in far Western foot ball, specializing in spinners, sharp-breaking bucks, decep- tive slants and passes. Sasse is in splendid shape as far as & line is concerned.

APE MAY, N.J., September 10.— If foot ball games were won by backs alone Pennsylvania would be well set for its tough schedule, which includes Wisconsin, Kansas, Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Cornell and Navy. From the 17 speedy backs cavorting over the seaside landscape here the new head coach, Lud Wray, is rea- sonably certain of turning out three formidable backfield combinations. Capt. Dick Gentle of Brookline, Mass,, has been nominated to call sig- nals for the first team, as Mort Wilner, quarterback last year, is not available. Gentle's backfield mates probably will be Walter Masters,” Philadel] , and Warren Gette, Philipsburg, half- b-.cka and Charles Greene, Forest Hills, N. YA, fullback.
