C. BYRD. EORGETOWN'S foot ball team this coming Friday night makes its last stand at home against what seems to be the strongest eleven it has met this season, possibly the strongest it will meet during the entire 1930 schedule—Michigan Btate College. The record so far made by Michigan State is all that is needed to indicate its strength. Or perhaps it would be better put to say show its strength, because there is no doubt about its power and versatility. 8o consistently has the school that makes its home at Lansing, Mich, played in all its games it seems rea- sonable to believe that the team it will send against Georgetown is con- g et Virkina, o e TP Probably the most indicative victory ‘won by Michigan State is that in which defeated Colgate by two w%mo;:al Soam® s e 40-t0c Gefcat, of Fenn y shows, but it was not to take the measure okl Michigan State one of the strong- It is note- t Michigan State has the University of its credit, and since that defeated Purdue and Illi- that may ‘d‘l.d" -: thought that Michigan nof Michigan State Col- inother idea, be- #ead. foot ball la) 00f sf-d wh:t;er or d en- win depen R 2858, giE it against opponents, ot nn-unh'mnd too costly to - — ik rival this week from 2 would rather 8 i le exception of | % d V! a game that, t to be anything lik> those | two universities have been years, will be As a matter of fact, ésé_ ’figi o i ] : i | i | ) | i ! il 5 e géiiga' i i it ; P M it ; |Ington and Lee also got a jolt from a that Virginia and Mary- 1and should be closely matched.

T fell to the lot of Notre Dame and Southern California to put on the big punch Saturday when they rolled up 76 points against Pitts- burgh and Stanford, supposed to be | two of the strongest teams in foot ball. Notre Dame's ability to run up 35 points against Pitt in two periods shows again the speed, power and all-around strength of Rockne's great backfield, working back of a fast charging, alert line. .

Dartmouth and Fordham moved further up in the East by beating two teams—Harvard strong and New York University. Northwestern and Michigan now lead the conference march with something to spare. ‘The scramble in the South is the most tangled of the lot. Alabama took & big jump forward by beating Vander- bilt. As the case now stands Georgia, Alabama, Tulane, Kentucky and Florida are all mixed up, but there will be a lot of the tangle cleared away Satur- day when Georgia faces Florida and Kentucky drives at Alabama. This last party will be one of the best of the year with two of the South's greatest teams under heavy fire. ‘Tulane came with a rush against Georgia Tech and is now high on the list.

Il‘oorrBALmeemtnmdup more than its share of indigna- tion on Saturday when Booth of Yale and Murphy of Fordham were both hurried from the fleld with head in- Juries that left both practically un- conscious. Their supporters felt that both star backs had been unduly jolted and harried and the booing choruses by | ¥ere unusually strong. Only those on | the fleld can know what actually hap- pens under these conditions. On the same day Devens, one of Harvard's best backs, was retired with a leg injury during the game against Dartmouth that may end his foot ball career for the season, but no public complaint was registered on this play. In the Army-Yale incident it so hap- ned that one of the men who nailed th was Price, the 220-pound tackle. When 220 pounds happens to catapult against 140 pounds, with the 140 pounds spun out of position at the moment, the result is pretty sure to have just one answer. And it is rarely in favor of the 140-pounder. Neither Army nor Yale had any chance to put on a high-class attack with a slippery ball to carry over a slippery, muddy field. Both teams got the best they could from the handicap- ping cunditions where two strong lines battled to a stand off. Having developed the winning habit back in 1929, Maj. Cavanaugh and Fordham see no reason to give up the same. The P. G. A. Mistake. 'HE Professional Golfers’ Association has failed to realize the fact that when private golf clubs put up $3,000 or $5,000 for a professional tour- nament, they are only interested in the appearance of individual stars. They have no connection with any organized effort to keep these tournaments dg‘oinm As a result of P. G. A. demands for 10 per cent of the prize money, two California clubs have already called off their money tournaments, and others will follow this move. It is quite possible there will soon be a big slump in these big money tour- naments if are any further de- ‘mands. Capt. Simrall's Micl team has come with a rush in last three ames, indicatis another hard test for Harvard ne week. The confer- ence dash between Northwestern and Michigan may lead to a dead heat. It took the Navy some time to slip loose from its shackles, but when the leash was finally cut, it was an en- tirely different Navy team that moved through the jungle on Saturday. This | isn't a Princeton , and the chance | for a Tiger rally now is slight. | (Copyright, 1930, by North American News- Paper Alllance.) SUBSIDIZE ATHLETES, SAYS COLLEGE HEAD President of Athleteless Park ‘Would Allow Players to Earn Their Way. By the Associated Press. PARKVILLE, Mo, October 27.—Dr. Frederick W. Hawley, president of Park College, where a tramp athlete is just a tramp and a gridiron only a cooking utensil, recommends open subsidization of college athletes. ¥ Park College does not engage in inter- collegiate sports, and all students are required to earn at least part of their college education by performing menial tasks about the campys. “The rules,” he said, in commenting on the qualified expulsion of the Uni- versity of Kansas from Big Six Con- ference sports, “are untenable, cannot be enforced and should be abolished. “Subsidization, which exists now, should be openly recognized and con- trolled.” Charges of recruiting and questioning | of the eligibility of James A. “Jarring Jim” Bausch, back-fleld star who sells insurance for pay, led the faculty ath- letic council meeting in Columbia, Mo., to bar Kansas at the close of the scho- lastic year. “If Big Six athletic rules,” Dr. Haw- ley remarked, “were applied to other college ventures it would be virtually impossible for many youths to get an education. “I see no reason an athlete should not be permitted to use his special abil- itles to earn his way through school. It is no worse and no better to capitalize your athletic prowess, throwing hash or booting a foot ball. “Students who excel in their studies are given scholarships. There are scholarships in all kinds of professional and trade schools. “Why not similar ones,” asked the head of the athlete-less Park College, “for athletic factories.” ud Foot Ball Luminaries Suffer .

EW YORK, October 27.—A half dozen or more battles of long standing are on this week's Eastern foot ball schedule, in- termingled with games that are fast becoming traditions. At the head of this list comes the meeting between Dartmouth, one of the few unbeaten and untied teams and scoring leader of the East, and the still powerful Yale team. With Dartmouth's victory over Harvard and an injury to Albie Booth, the green has become a favorite. Cornell, also undefeated, meets an old rival which has not shown great strength this year in Columbia. Ford- ham, a third leader, has a fairly easy rival, West Virginia. Other clashes of | tradition bring together Syracuse and Brown, Rutgers and Holy Cross, Buck- nell and Penn State, Carnegie Tech and New York University. Georgetown opens the intersectional program Friday night when it enter- ains Michigan State, conqueror of Colgate. On Saturday, Pittsburgh's invasion of Nebraska and the return trip of Kansas to Pennsylvania will draw attention. Princeton goes West to continue a series with Chicago and George Wash- Journeys tc Tulsa. Two undefeated teams of the Mid- west travel East for games. Marquette plays Boston College and North Dakota takes on the powerful Army eleven. Other Ease-West games are vis and Elkins against Oklahoma City and Marshall against Wittenberg. Duke's blue devils are expected to give Villanova a tussle. Harvard plays William and Mary, Colgate meets Mississippi College and Temple plays ‘Wake Forest. TAKOMA TIGERS DINE.

BY W. W. ROPER, Foot Ball Coach, Princeton University. RINCETON, N. J., October 27. Eastern foot ball was full of sensational play on Satur- day. The results of the games show Yale, Dartmouth, Army and Fordham out in front, with Colgate and Navy stepping along as close seconds. Yale and Army staged a great battle at New Haven. Yale scored early in the game on a blocked kick and after the first score played mainly a de- fensive game. Fortunately for the Blue, on the !ry for point an Army man was offside and. although Yale did not make the kick, the point counted. Army gained a lot of ground, as the records show, but the rugged Yale de- fense held them to a single score. Booth's injury as soo nas he entered the game was a great loss to Yale, Fordgam played great foot ball against a powerful N. Y. U. team and won, The Navy played a strong game against Princeton. Their attack checked beautifully all through the game and their forwards charged low and hard on both offense and defense. The An- napolis boys played a double wing-back formatfon ~ with” an unbalanced line. Their attack was particularly strong inside and outside of tackle. Navy's Play Brilliant. I have never ceen a team :lly better together than Navy did and they de- served their victory by their brilliant play. Defeated the week before by Duke University, the Midshipmen cer- tainly staged a wonderful comeback. Capt. Nestres was a tower of strength in the Princeton line. Amerherst was held to a 19-19 tie by Wesleyan. Brown played real foot ball against a powerful Holy Cross team. ~Colgate swamped Penn State with its versatile attack. Bucknell made a surprisingly good score against Gettysburg. Gettysburg has made a remcrkable record this Fall. This game shows how little de- pendence can be placed on compara- tive scores. Temple defeated Bucknell and Get- tysburg won from Villanova, yet Buck- nell won from Gettysburg. The powerful ith team, through its ability to stop Harvard’s lateral passes, defeated Crimson me. T, 7-0. in a close and most interesting gm Harvard, led by Capt. Ben Tic made some great defensive stands against Dartmouth's. ‘?fi I should say the score of 7 o 2 about repre- sents the relative merits of the two Temple-Villanova Strong One of the most Mteresti hard-played games of the E in the municipal siadium Philadelphia between Temple and Vila- nova. It was a contest between the hidden ball it by Bert Bell, w master hand, and speed of Notre Dame as taught by Harry Stuhldreher. ‘While there was little to choose between lllanova had a slight edge. all sorts ?t gvdu for its comeback after two de- feats. Pensylvania is again on the up-g-de. Saninst engh. Witk plenty ot pewer 3 plenty of T and deception. Penn, despite the Wis- consin defeat, is a strong team. Pittsburgh was unablé to hold Notre Dame, though the Panthers put up a hard fight and improved as the game went on. Notre Dame had too much man-power. Rockne’s team scored all its points in the first half. and was of s tage. e's stop. The end is the king pin of the whole attack, and, while Notre Dame fis ly strong on the long side, their short side Prhyl are always a constant threat. ttsburgh had to shift against the strength and, as a consequence, the short side plays worked with telling effect. Syracuse had little difficulty with St. Lawrence, and Rutgers looked much | better against Delaware. Columbia had difficulty winning from Willlams, but showed improvement over its play against Dartmouth. and Passes MINNEAPOLIS. — Gridiron relations between Minnesota and Northwestern date back to 1892, but the Wildcats have been able to win only three games while the Gophers were chalking up 10 triumphs with their power-house teams. When they meet Saturday one of the two is slated to fall from a tie for the Western Conference leadership, NEW YORK.—Bethany and Hobart are staging a real battle for cellar honors in Eastern foot ball circles. Each team has failed to score a point, while the opposition has rolled up 235 ‘points against Bethany in four games and 194 Hobart in one more contest. ey do not meet. HAMILTON, N. Y.—Len Macaluso, Colgate's star back, is far out in front with points after touchdown, having successfully booted 16 across the bar. In addition, he has scored nine touch- downs to lead the Eastern scorers.
