A—14 “Bring on Mexican NEW GRID CHAMPS POINT FOR CLASSIC - Conquerors of Eastern Are Worthy Foes for All-Stars From Sister Republic. BY BURT HAWKINS. [{3 RING on those Mexicans!” Amid the back-slapping, B congratulations, towel- throwing, laughter and general locker room confusion, Central High School's newly crowned scho- lastic champions, who clinched the title with a stirring 12-6 victory over Eastern yesterday at Central Stadium, took up the battle cry which promises | trouble for the Latin Americans.

Mo., tonight faced Welker Cochran 1n an attempt to halt the San Franciscan's rush to the world three-fushion billiards championship. Layton tackles the San Francisco wizard, who already holds the 18.2 balkline title, while Allen Hall of St. the way for the first touchdown when he uncorked a twisting 65-yard boot which came to rest on Eastern's 2-yard line, Chick Di Guilian’s return punt traveled only 15 yards, Chaimson snagging the oval in midair and smashing his way back to Eastern’s 9-yard line. Richardson then shot off left tackle and behind perfect interference, weaved his way over the goal line. His rush for the extra point was smeared. Later in the same period Chaimson tore through the Lincoln Park for- ward wall to block a punt, Charlie Kline recovering for Central on the Eastern 32. -Richardson and Jones picked up 11 yards on two line bucks and then Richardson flipped a pass to the molasses-fingered Sam Fox, who was a foot over the goal line, providing the winning margin. Fox had been sent in three plays previously by Pearce. He was yanked after his successful snag. Shugrue Stars for Losers. O LESS than four times did the plucky Eastern team threaten to score in the second quarter, but Central's defense braced at the crucial points to quell the uprising. Zealously protecting its lead, Cen- tral came back in the second half to stick almost entirely to detensive tac- tics. Backed up to its 18-yard line fol- lowing & punting duel in the fourth quarter. Eastern reeled off the most gensational play of the geries when Jack Shugrue, a standout in the Lin- coln Parkers' backfield all afternoon, skipped around left end and pranced 82 yards, behind beautiful down-field blocking by his mates, for Eastern’s Ione tally. Sensing victory, Artie Boyd's bat- tlers filled the air witn a barrage of passes in the dying moments of the game. Central, however, finished like & trtue champion, battering down the eiier aerial heaves to keep play well in Eastern territory. Eastern gave the Centrai contingent ell they could ask for during three periods. Six thousand scholastic fans ‘were convinced Pearce’s boys deserved the title by turning back the valiant Lincoln Parkers.

Shu’s pass to Nugent then provided what was to be the winning margin. But the Purple youngsters, undis- mayed, came right back with a drive which saw Jim Shaw, Ray Gormley and Jim Boyle carry them down to the 7-yard line, from where Shaw hit | tackle for the touchdown.

Shugrue was stopped a few yards farther, however, when Central’s Billy Richardson, Al Groom and Billy Vermillion tackled him just past the line of scrimmage. In the lower picture is shown the chief reason why Central, for the second time in three years, is sitting atop the local gridiron heap. Behind perfect interference, Billy Richardson is seen scampering across the Eastern line on a 9-yard dash for the first touchdown. It was easy for Richardson, behind blocking teammates.

BY GRANTLAND RIC The Sugar Bowl game will present | | ) HE thin man has come back to New York. The thin man from South Bend first came East in 1922. He came back in 1923 and 1924. Taking a look at him, the thin man is almost the last one you would have picked as the slashing fullback of a great backfield, one of the greatest in foot ball. A trifle over 6 feet, he weighed 162. If he was the thin man then, you ought to see him now, after the Ohio State and Northwestern games, the Army on deck. He makes a tooth- pick look chunky. His name is Elmer Layden—the Notre Dame coach—one of the old four horsemen. All he could do was run, buck, kick, pass, block and tackle. Facing one of Notre Dame’s greatest years—this is all the thin man, who worries a lot anyway, had to meet this season: Sullivan, his star guard and captain, died; Robinson, his crack center, played three minutes on & B team, which counted a technical year; Machuta, his leading tackle, suf- fered a head injury and had to quit foot ball; six promising freshmen and six or seven promising reserves took a scholastic dive; in the Ohio State game he lost Pilney, his star back, with two other stars badly battered up; his second touchdown againsi Northwestern was called back for off- side. So the thin man, mot only an able coach, but a top-grade sportsman, is thinner than ever. I doubt that he’ll make 150 pounds. It may interest you to know that, if the thin man can get by Army and Southern California, his team may be the Northern pick for the big sugar bowl game in New Orleans on Jan- uary 1. New Orleans has planned a big Winter sporting carnival around this game, the Southern entry to be Nortn Carolina, L. 8. U., Southern Methodist. Tulane, T. C. U, Alabama, Georgia or State, depending on the Seascn's shme: opponents of equal caliber with the Rose Bowl meeting, where it will be South against North, in place of Far wss: against the East, South or South- ‘west.

N THE face of the awful warning of Mr. John Da Grossa, president of the American Foot Ball In- stitute, that the so-called news- paper experts are responsible for the betting wave in sport, causing weak- minded mothers and fathers to go out and gamble the money that should rightfully be spent for the kiddies' morning martini, this department is going to pick the foot ball winners again. Last week we had one right, and a close subsequent study of the happy forecast reveals that it almost rhymed, the way we worded it. Maybe that's the key to success. Let's try it. The score is sure to be high When Princeton wallops Lehigh. In this case, if you don’t accent the word “be” in the first line, the rhyme is wrong and you might just as well put your money back in your pocket. We poets are very sensitive about the accent. Keats was the same way. When Rice gets through with Tezas A. M. She may be pinched and tried for mayhem.
