Comparatively speaking, no other eleven in this section has suffered as great losses behind its line as Gallaudet.

By the Associated Press. EW YORK, September 26.—King Foot Ball returned to the sports throne today to the ac- companiment of a flock of games dgsigned to point major teams for the gruelling tests still a few weeks off. / From a competmv: standpoint the Far West had the most attractive schedule. The Utah Indians, cham- plons of all they surveyed in the Rocky Mountain - Conference, -clash with Washington at Seattle and another Rocky Mountain Conference team, Coi- ondo University, meets Oregon State rat Portland. Southern California, opens t Slip Madigan's sensational St. Mary's Gaels. Stanford plays the strong Olympic Club and California tackles Santa Clara. The East had no games to rival this collection. Army, Dartmouth, Cornell, Syracuse, Colgate and all the rest had foes r?nsemmg colleges smaller in s1ze and weaker in foot ball man power. Army's game with Ohio Northern head- ed the Eastern slate. Harvard, Yale and Princeton/ start next Saturday. Plays Double-Header. ©Of the Big Ten schools, Chicago had a double-header with Hillsdale and Cornell College of Towa; Indiana meets the strong Buckeye Conference eleven. Ohio University, and Minnesota has North Dakota State for an opening opponent. n the Big Six, Nebraska tackles South Dakota Unlverxlv.y. Iowa State clashes with Simpson and Kansas meets the Colorado Aggies. The Southern schedule listed two Southern Con- ference games, Tulane vs. Mississippi and Duke vs. South Carolina. Most other Conference schools also started their seasons, but against foes largely drawn either from the Southern Inter- collegiate Athletic Association or the Virginia Conference. In the Southwest Conference, Texas Christian was favored over Louisiana State from the Southern Conference in the only important fray of the day. The only all-Rocky Mountain Conference game pitted Colorado College against Western State. D.C. BOY IS 'S LEADER Donald Pollock Manager of Foot Ball Team at Fishburne. Cadet Donald B.

The Mary- land open, won handily by Ralph Beach, the Washington Golf lnfl Country Club ex-caddie, now pro at the Baltimore Suburban Club, furnished a couple of good laughs while the tourney was being played at Congres- sional. Chief among them was the efforts of Bill Scott, rotund profes- sional at the Baltimore Country Club, to keep his golf ball in the cup after he had put it there. Scott has a reputation as a putter. He has holed as many long ones as any living man, but yesterday, like most of the other entrants, he was afflicted with putter trouble. The ball simply would not stay in the hole. On green after green Bill saw his pm hit mz edge of the cup and then, as is the common practice of the “balloon” bdl, jump out. Bill had half a dozen three putt greens behind him when he reached the thirteenth, and on that green he pop out. He rushed over to the hole and quickly dropped his hat over it, remarking, “Now, you little scoundrel, stay in there.” Fred McLeod wanted to do the same thing many, many times as he saw his chance to win the tourney slip away on the greens, where the little Occt from Columbia wasted many strokes. The tournament was 8 battle of putting, for at the end Ralph Beach needed both those birdie 2s he holed ~ worst iast night in another District League match between Hecht Co. and Kin[ Pin.

One to three | 8004 , flounders, Revolutionary Foot Ball Scheme, BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. IRECT information from the University of Southern California foot ball fields reports that Howard Jones is experimenting with a new tandem shift this season. If the experiment develops accord- ing to the Trojan leader's expecta- tions it will be one of the most revolutionary and important changes in shifting the game has known in recent years. Jones has for years been a leader in the magter of a full-team shift and from it his Trojans may move into any one of eight or nine forma- tions. He usually splits his ends, and each formation varies the spac- ing of the linemen, thereby giving him more holes through which to strike than would be offered by & tight line. ‘The Southern California ends, one or both, frequently are left in\the backfield after the shift, with the halfbacks playing up the line. This shifting of ends makes it extremely difficult for opponents. Regular re- ceivers and tackles frequently become eligible on the et O ok Jones' formation bears a resemblance to Notre Dame’s box and another is not unlike Warner's double wing- back set-up. But their similarity is only in appearance. ‘The Trojans’ most common for- mations find the strength wn to the right in an unbalanced l!ne. with the right halfback playing as a wing-back outside the end or be- tween the end and tackle. The left half usually is close to the center, either a space or two to the left or the right, and a yard back. The quarter nearly always is the back man with the fullback stationed to his right and a yard in front. Cut backs to the right, that hit inside tackle and guard and right over center, with spinners to the weak side have proven to be Jones' most consistent running plays. These everchanging formations make it possible for the Trojans to get a maximum of interference ahead of the ball carrier. As the quarter nearly always is the back man it is necessary for Jones to have a triple- threat man in that position. * So at the moment Galus Shaver is favored for the position since he is STREAM BY PERRY MILLER off Tall Timbers and Piney Point.
