s PORTS, sHE EVENING STAR, WAS-! - TON, D. C, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1930. SPORTS. Tulane Will Show Mid-West Fans a Sample of Southern Brand of Foot Ball BREEN WAVE TAKES ON NORTHWESTERN Tomorrow’s Games Will Give Comparison of Southern and Midwest Brands. BY BOB ZUPPKE, Poot Ball Coach ‘University of Ilinols. E'LL get a chance to compare Southern foot ball with the Middle Western brand tomor- TOoW. The most interesting of these intersectional games, in my opin- fon, will be played at Northwest- ern. Bernie Bierman, old-time Minnesota player, will bring al- most intact his Tulane team, which won all of its games last year and was champion of the Southern Conference according to many awards. Tulane is said to be stronger potentially on the de- fense and to have numerous re- serves. Northwestern, best equipped in vet- eran material in the Big Ten, and the general pre-season choice for the cham- pionship, should display more power and better punting ability against per- haps more speed by Tulane. The Green Wave defeated another Northwestern team in 1925, which was regarded as an upset, but it will not be considered so this time if Tulane wins. However, my guess is that Northwestern's line be too strong for the invaders and that the Southern team will lose. Tight Game Expected. ‘Vanderbilt, which lost only one South- ern Conference game last year, and that to Tennessee, Wwill tackle Minnesota, and this should be another tight one. Vanderbilt lost at Minneapolis last year to Dr. Spears’ team, but now the Go- ?herx are in the throes of varying their "power” attack with:more open play under their new coach, Herb Crisler. Some observers think Minnesota is not agile enough for this, forgetting the eleven has spry backs. My guess is that Minnesota will slide through this game and that it isn't safe to write them off the championship slate. Southern Methodist was runner-up for the Southwest Conference cham- plonship last year, was undefeated, and tied Nebraska. Ray Morrison e smart coach and will take a lively team to Notre Dame. The only trouble is that Southern Methodist will have to face two teams. Observers who have been to Notre Dame tell me Rockne has another fine squad, and I pick ‘em. Another Southwest Conference repre- sentative, Baylor, will take on Purdue, last year's Big Ten champs, minus Harmeson, Welch and Sleight of last season's team, but still formidable. This marks the first appearance of Noble Kizer as Purdue's coach, but he was an assistant for five years and there is no change of system. Again I am forced to predict the doom of the Southerners. One Big Ten Game. ‘The only Big Ten teams which en- gage each other are Ohio State and Indiana, neither ranked high by the dopesters. probably a lot better than last year, and may come along. Indiana has lost heavily, and is hardly as strong as last 50 everything points to Ohio 1 regard the Illinois-Iowa State game a8 a toss-up, which will naturally bring | wise smiles from those who do not know that we have only three letter men, only one of whom, Pete Yanuskus, could be considered anything like & regular last year. Yes, I like sopho- more teams, but you need more veterans to play along with the green boys. Our line will be green from end to end. JTowa State took it on the chin last year, but they say Coach Noel Work- man’ has a veteran squad of such num- | bers that he is moving his big backs into the line. They tied us three years ago. Michigan State will be a formidable foe for Michigan if reports of its strength are true. They tell me Michi- gan State defeated Ypsilanti Normal, 17 to 0, in an informal game in the Spring. Ypsilanti lost to Michigan by one touchdown last Saturday. But Michigan creates the impression it is tially strong and full of meat, so imagine the Wolverines will win. Chicago should handle Hillsdale and Ripon, and Wisconsin will dispose of Carleton. The Badgers say all they need is two tackles, but that is better than to need a whole line. Iowa should prove superior to the Oklahoma Aggies. All the Big Six teams open, but none with each other. The best looking match in the valley is between Ne- braska and Texas Aggies, where Coach Bible, now of Nebraska, formerly coached. The Texans are likely to be stubborn, but Nebraska should have more strength all along the line. In the Kansas-Creighton, Kansas les- Wi Missouri-Colorado and Ok- lahoma-New Mexico games the first named teams are of the favorites. Marquette seems to have the founda- tion for a first-rate team, having a good back in Johnny Sisk, with some other s ters. Marquette encounters Grinnell. The memory of two reverses in two years will spur the Milwaukee team. (Copyright, 1930, by North American News- paper Alliance.) STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE \WO big golf tournaments sched- uled for decision over courses in Baltimore next week will mark the virtual end of the big-time season around the'Capital. Both events will involve many District golfers. First of these is the women's cham- plonship tourney of the Middle Atlantic Golf Assoclation, to start over the course of the Elkridge Hunt Club Mon- day morning. This tourney will run for five days, with the final round carded for October 10. Three flights will qualify. Mrs. John N. ~Who won the round agains . te Nicholson, will not defend her championship. Mrs. Hodges has given up competitive golf. ‘The other tourney is the Middle lantic Professional Golfers’ Association championship, scheduled for decision over the elongated 72-hole route at the Woodholme Country Club next Thurs- h. the melghbormeod ot 52000 benbeen put up for this match. ‘The “sand wedge” has made its ap- pearance aroung Washington. The con cave faced mashie niblick, which is a club for getting a golf ball out of em- barassing spots in sand bunkers and Which was the sensation of the amateur champlonship last week, is for sale at the imposing price of $12.50. One of the local professionals, with 8 keen eye for business, after watchin Sayers sell part of the 300 san wedges over the counter in the golf shop at Merion, put in an order for a number of them. The club is the most ridiculous freak ever invented, but no man can doubt its efficiency in getting out of sand. has a concave face and a -shaped bottom and the ball can be picked out from the most atrocious lie without trouble. So shots were laid dead out of the sand at Merion last week with this implement that there is no doubt as to its efficlency. The club is a marvel, but the main question is whether it will last as a lawful implement. Offi- cials of the United States Golf Associa- tion laughed about it. But behind their humor was a serious note, for they hold that purchase of a sand wedge is also }mrchm of a golf stroke, rnd that is ar from the purpose of the 7ame. The tip-off is that when the committee on implements and the ball get through with consideration of this weapon it may be barred, just as was the slotted iron club. But for the present the fel- lows who own sand wedges can on merrily knocking golf balls out of bunk- | ers dead to the hole. Bobby Jones carried one in his bag at Merion, but the king of the links dis- dained to play it on those rare occa- sions when he got in a sand trap. With a sore 19 below par.

GOLF TOO EXPENSIVE, SO GOODMAN RETIRES By the Assoclated Press. OMAHA, Neb, October 3.—Johnny Goodman, youthful Omaha golf star, who bounced Bobby Jones out of the | national amateur tournament at Pebble Beach last year, has announced that he would retire from competitive golf, characterizing it as “a rich man's and one he no longer could Goodman made the announcement on his return from the national ama- teur champ! at Philadelphia. He sald he was “I broke” to return to the University of Nebraska, due to his l:vlnnin:nvell. and henceforth ‘would con! his activities to local tournaments. He sald he planned to sell insurance. He firet sprang into notice by work- ing his way to Colorado on freight trains and winning the trans-Mississippi championship, defeating in the final Jimmy Ward of Kansas City, a young millionaire in his own right. He traveled to the national open at Minneapolis this year in an automo- bile “house” with two friends. mothered -~ Nevertheless, Ohio State is| BEST GOAST TEAMS California and Washington State to Meet—Warner Seeks Revenge. BY HOWARD JONES, ity of Southern LTHOUGH the foot ball season is barely under way, much will be known regarding the strength of Pacific Coast Con- ference teams following tomorrow's games. California and Washington State meet at Berkeley. The Bears are regarded as onme of the strong- est teams in Californis, while Wash- | ington State, with eight regulars, fig- |ures to be as powerful as any eleven in the Northwest. Nibs Price's eleven defeated the | Cougars, 14-0, last year, mainly through forward passes. This was one of two games lost by the Cougars in 1929, which indicates how strong Babe Hol- lingbery's team figures to be this season. California is experimenting with the Notre Dame shift, and it may take the Bears a few games to get thoroughly acquainted with this mode of attack. ‘Washingtor: State is no team to fool with, and I would not be surprised if one touchdown or maybe one point separted the two rivals Saturday. Strong in Reserves. Both elevens are well supplied with reserve material, so it will be a hard- fought and even contest right to the final whistle. The Bears ought to win, but a Wuhingwn State victory is not at all improbable. Last year Stanford was upset by TESTED TOMORROW = Santa Clars, 13-7, just before the Cali- fornia e. No doubt Pop Warner's team will be cut for revenge this time, and I look for the Red Shirts to get it. Santa Clara made a good showing against California, but will probabl 1~ somewhat softened as the result of that e. reserves to be caught napping. I expect Southern California to have & tough game with Oregon State, just as tough as California will have with Washington State. Coach Schiss- ler has a lnrfi.numbfi of experienced players, and team has shown great power and versatility in the two games layed thus far this season. I ‘have en told to keep my eye on one of his halfbacks, Rust, for they say this player has been running wild in the Northwest. Jones Still in Dark. My team was not extended last week, and I really am about as much in the dark as I was before that game was played. There are a large number of sophomores on our squad, and what they will do under fire remains to be seen. Last year we defeated Oregon State, 21-7. Although Montana tied Washington, 6-6, a year ago, I look for Washing- ton to score a comparatively easy vic- tory. The huskies have considerakly more material, and figure to win by iwo or three touchdowns. Idaho ought to take the measure of the College of Idaho, although perhaps not by a large score. The teams did not play each other last year. (Copyright, 1930.) U. S. NET COMEBACK SEEN Tilden Expects Davis Cup to Be Regained Within Four Years. PHILADELPHIA, October 3 (#).— Willlam T. Tilden, 2d, for nine years tennis singles champion until he lost the title this year, told the Poor Rich- | ard Club at a luncheon that America would win back the Davis Cup within | three or four years. ‘Tilden said that despite reports to the contrary, he had not retired from the game.

ORE than 200 attended the eleventh annual fishing excur- sion of the Washington, D. C., Chapter of the I. W. L. A. at Chesapeake Beach. For the largest fish caught for the men's prize—a bluefish ‘weighing 3 pounds § ounces—J. W. Ar- nold received the $10 in gold offered by the Washington Herald. Miss Mildred Sumner received the prize for the larg- est fish landed by a woman—$10 in gold from The Star. The largest trout was caught by 8. T. Money, weighing 1 pound and 11 ounces. The second largest trout was caught by H. M. Hartgue, 1 pound and 7 ounces; third largest trout, weighing 1 pound ana 6 ounces, Paul Ratherdale, and the fourth largest trout, 1 pound and 3 ounces, Joe Thompson. The second largest bluefish was caught by M. Stenz, weigh- 1 pound 8 ounces. And here’s a laugh-I won a prize for the largest hardhead, weighing 13 ounces. The second largest hardhead was landed by G W. Myers, weighing 11 ounces. I have never seen a crowd fish harder with so little result. J. J. Tancill of 930 H street northwest won the rod and reel with ticket 213. HE Potomac and S8henandoah Rivers are reported clear at Harpers Ferry. A few good catches of bass have been reporfed, but unless the angler wades, he is not apt to reach the holes | where the bass hide. Carl Stodder, who has been fishing in the Potomac at Sycamore Island for years, informs us that there are more bass in the river than he has ever seen, but says the majority of them are small. APT. GEORGE M. BOWEN at Sol- omons Island telephoned in this morning that a northeaster has been blowing down there for the last four days, but that it is now dying out and he expects good fishing conditions by the end of the week. In spite of the northeaster he says some good catches | ports that tailors and trout are being of trout have been made. Bowen reports that Capt. Willlam Littral came in this morning with seven trout weighing from 31 to 6% pounds. He also informs us that the blues are making their way up the bay and are now being caught between Point Lookout and No Point. No Point is a short distance from Cedar Point at the mouth of the Patuxent River. George Knight at Leonardtown re- caught in the mouth of Brettons Bay and in St. Clements Bay. Knight says that State Senator Allen Coad landed 88 blues trolling off Point Lookout, each fish weighing nearly 5 pounds. The 88 fish weighed more than 434 pounds. Jeft Combs, a local angler, fishing at Black Walnut, just inside Brettons Bay, returned with a string of 14 large trout and tailors, and Capt Trott with parties from Washington and Baltimore return- ed with good strings of blues and trout. | Mr. and Mrs. Charles McGhan, fishing in St. Clements Bay, landed 250 pounds of trout and tailors. Sixty big fish and a few small ones were caught by W. J. Leishear, John E. Thompson and Frank Slye on a day's outing at Point Lookout. These anglers report that the water was rough and their bait, peelers and soft crabs, was not in the best condition. Capt. J. T. Courtney of Ridge, Md, was the boatman who se successfu landed them upon fishing grounds. Trout weighing 7 were largest fish of the trio's catch, the smallest of the trout running about 3 pounds. Their catch also included Several small drumfish and some of the largest hardheads caught in the Lower Potomac this season. Not & bluefish ‘Was landed by these anglers. & TWO BIG BATTLES SLATED FOR SOUTH ers. North Carolina Meets V. P. L “The writer, in company with Dr. J. C. Copenhaver, Arthur Winn, Harold Miller and I. Rosenblatt, went to Brool Island, on the Patuxent, for a day' fishing, and although we did not get such a large number, we surely got quality for our trouble. We caught 9 trout and 19 blues and innumerable small but edible spot. Dr. Copenhaver took the prize fish, which were a 5l5-| und trout and a er trout caught unds. All these pound and & 4%%- 214-pound blue. weighed 3% and 3 | fish were caught ‘still’ fishing and no trolling was attempted, although small blues could be seen all around us. I believe that the large ones are on the way up the bay and will put in their | appearance shortly in Herring Bay, West River and points north as soon as the effect of the cooler weather is felt up here.
