SPORTS. 'High Tallying, Uns EVEN SEMI-SET-UP LISTS UNSAFE FOR BIG TEAMS * Notre Dame and Mississippi State Lose to Foes Probably Inferior, Escapes—Terps Toss Away Win. BY THEO. B. SERVER. ] HE day of the big-scoring, not- | scored on foot ball teams has passed into the limbo of other things that have no place| in modern environment. No pre-| vious foot ball season, so much as the present, ever demonstrated this/ fact so well. The only eleven that stands any chance at all of going through its schedule undefeated is | one that has a thoughtfully arranged | semi-set-up list of contests, and even then it must be possessed of an un- usually strong outfit. This does not mean that once| in a while a team will not achieve | an undefeated season, but such teams | will be as scarce as snakes on a snow- | bank. The pressure of winning Satur- | day after Saturday from teams about | as strong, or even almost, is too! great for a squad to carry except under very unusual circumstances. | Take for instance some of the games last week in which apparently the stronger team was whipped. No one doubts for an instance that Notre Dame is better than Northwestern, Yet 1t could not come back from a series of difficult contests, especially that stirring battle of Ohio State, sufficiently to win from a weaker op- | ponent. Of course, the answer to this always will be that the opponent was not weaker on that particular Saturday afternoon, but that is not what is meant. Notre Dame, meeting Northwestern's team of this year on days when it would be able to apply full pressure, would win nine times out of ten. Ohio State Barely be traveling the way of a real cham- pion. The day it wipped Tennessee, 38 to 13, the first Saturday in October, somebody remarked that “Any team that can beat Tennessee like that is going to be a tough nut to crack,” ani apparently it is. Last week the ‘Tarheels rolled up their biggest score of the year, beating Virginia Military Institute, 56 to 0. A man who lives at Chapel Hill remarked this morning in talking about the Tarheel eleven, “The only trouble with the team is that it is developing rapidly a case of Rosebowlitis.” Duke may have a dose of medicine strong enough at least t¢ alleviate the pains of that type of disease. Tigers Play to Form. PRINCE'I‘ON. 26, Navy; 0; Prince- ton, 35, Harvard, 0; begins to 'n- dicrte enough troubl to cause the Bulldog to blink his eyes. The Tigers ha:dly have forgotten that contest las. year and undoubtedly have been looking forward to the time this Fall when they would see in front of them a line of New Haven jerseys. It was said earlier this season that the best foot ball material on any Eastern | gridiron is at Princeton and those | Navy and Harvard scores do not indicate that the statement was very much wrong.

HICAGO, November 11.—Wel- ker Cochran of San Francisco, holder of the 18.2 balkline championship, today was the only undefeated player in the world three-cushion billiard championship tournament. But Cochran faces a tough opponent tonight, meeting Allen Hall, youthful St. Louis player, who achieyed a sen- sational victory last night in defeating Willie Hoppe, boy wizard of the cue two-score years ago. Hall conquered Hoppe 50 to 43 in 41 innings, handing the boy wizard his first defeat in three starts, Champion Is Upset. ANOTHER of the big threats in the battle for the championship, was knocked flat when Arthur Thurnblad | of Chicago, defeated Johnny Layton, | present champion, 50 to 48 in a 66- inning game-that required 2 hours and | 20 minutes to play. These upsets, the most startling since the tournament started last Wednes- Lday, left Cochran the only undefeated player in the field of 10. The high run of the tournament was made by Otto Reiselt, Philadel- phia veteran, who handed Kinrey Matsuyama, Tokio, Japan, his fourth straight defeat yesterday. He beat the Japanese 50 to 36 in 34 innings. In the thirticth inning Reiselt started clicking and rolled up 11 billiards be- fore the ivories refused to perform for SPORTS. n Gridiron Machines Become Scarcer Each Season Garden Horse Show Girls OQutdo Most Men, Are “Awfully Nice,” Declare ALi-Wise Grooms ~ RIDES T0 VICTORY to Capt.

Foot ball teams can be at their | top form for about two games in & season. For other games they can elect either to go along in their stride and take results as they come, or they can maintain themselves on a higher level than can be carried throughout the whole season, have an inevitable let-down that may cause them to lose to teams actually their inferiors. Years ago most of the good foot ball was seen in a few institutions. That no longer is so. Now players are distributed around a good deal more and there are a hundred good high and prep school players now | against one 20 years ago, when Yale, Michigan and other schools were mowing down all opposition. There are two ways of arranging & foot ball schedule—one to win and one for money, or possibly a combination of the two. The teams that play almost solely for money, and let that factor influence almost entirely their arrangements for games, wsually have the most difficult sched- ules, and, when they do not have “breathers,” should consider them- selves lucky indeed as they get by each consecutive Saturday. | Buckeves Barely Escape. ‘ OHIO STATE, unquestionably one | of the two or three strongest elevens in the Nation, came within an ace of duplicating what Notre Dame did—lose to an inferior op- ponent.

Here are a few examples: Karl F. Kellerman played nine | holes at Congressional with only three | pars on his card, and yet he finished | with a 38, one above par. He bagged three birdies en route, short a 75, and | lost money to men who shot 90 in | the “animal game.” | James A.

If you can judge by these incidents the whole game is screwy, and yet niany a round of golf is played in which are made funnier shots than these. Take Bill Ullman, if you want him.

It was a game that | Maryland had tucked away. but threw away by neglecting the most elemental principles of good judgment, after having in other respects put up a magnificent struggle. And any coach who would be satisfied with the judg- ment Indiana used, except in the last minute of play, would know little about foot ball.
