SPORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1937. SPORTS D3 Yale and Dartmouth Take Perfect Records Into Vital Grid Scrap Arcadia Girls Hand Rosslyn First Pin Defeat of Season " UNBEATEN SEASON L00MS FOR VCTOR Both Have Been Fortunate In Avoiding Injuries to Key Performers. By GRANTLAND RICE. When the Green comes down from Hanover to mingle with the Blue, When Frank slips over tackle or when Wilson hammers through; When Hutchinson gets under way or young McLeod sets sail, Will the Dartmouth of the species be as deadly as the Yale? By Saturday night, barring an un- Hkely draw, Yale or Dartmouth will be one of the few unbeaten, untied teams in the country. This makes New Haven the main spot on Satur- day’s map for several reasons. Ome is that Yale and Dartmouth happen to be the only two unbeaten, untied teams meeting in a head-on collision. Another is that both go a long way back in football tradition. The third reason is that the winner of this game has a fair chance of going the rest of the route unbeaten. No guarantee goes with this lase projec- tion into the future. But it could happen easily that way—with Brown, Princeton and Harvard left in the Yale road, and Princeton, Cornell and Co- lumbia waiting as Dartmouth barri- cades. Accidents or injuries may upset any such calculations. For example, neither Yale nor Dartmouth so far has lost any dependable regular, while | N. Y. U. has lost six of its best men and Cornell has lost fiive. No team could stand that wreckage and re- main afloat. When Cornell socks one 60 yards and Hutchinson repeats— When King and Ewart smear the tuft with ever-flying cleats— When Green and Blue get in a snarl along New Haven's vale, Will the Darthmouth of the species be as deadly as the Yale? Dartmouth has a brilliant backfield | in Hutchinson, McLeod, King and Hollingsworth. Yale has one to match it in Frank, Wilson, Ewart, Colwell and Hessberg. Both are fast, hard- hitting, alert offensive teams. Yale has more experience and a slightly better line. It should be the type of contest that raises a hundred goose pimples to the square inch of human | flesh. The multitude and the players combined want offensive foot ball— not defensive strength. Unbeaten Tests. ERE are the unbeaten teams next | Saturday, outside of Yale and Dartmouth, that face trouble. They| are Holy Cross and Temple—Baylor | vs. Texas Christian—Detroit and Vil- | lanova—North Carolina and Fordham ~—Vanderbilt against Georgia Tech— < 1 Urges One-Legged Tourney Bowers Brothers Aspire to Muny Golf Title. Potomac Park and over the rugged terrain of Rock Creek busters are grooming themselves to take over the public links crown of an Claude Rippy, the lanky North Caro- linian, winner of the public links title himself definitely with one of the swankier country clubs, and thus has won't be eligible for the public links championship next year and the fleld in competition—of his successor. Off-hand you'd say, on the 1937 Andy Oliveri would be the logical suc- cessor to Rippy as king of the mu- Reached Woodmont Final.

Will the other lads give him the There are, for example, such good Pat Axtell, Harold and Bob Bowers, Tommy Doerer and a few others hanging around the public courses who can give Oliveri an argument when ever they step out to do battle. There's also Ted Rurrows, the portly chicken man, who won the public links title a couple of times and who is equipped to go along in any man's links war. And every year a couple of new stars come along who can go fast and far, boys like Bill Leapley and Bob O'Malley. Almost on Par With Voigt. 'HAT public links scrap next year promises plenty of action, for the national tourney will be held in the East and without a Rippy to lead them into action there’ll be more in- centive to play. Rippy was pretty well out in front of all the boys for years, But it will be a long time before another Rippy shows up. As a public links golfer he had everything and he’ll make the club golfers hump along if he enters many of the tourna- ments next year. He came to Wash- ington only six years ago, out of Shel- by, N. C, and in that brief space of time established himself as orte of the finest shotmakers ever turned ou! on any course around the Capital. In a way Rippy was a counterpart of George Voigt.

At least| four of these will hit the soapy chute. | Alabama and Duke both Iook to be| safe against Kentucky and W. and L. When asked to name four unbeaten teams in the upper crust for 1937 last week, your correspondent offered Cali- fornia, Pittsburgh, Colorado and Ala- bama. Now Vanderbilt crowds into the picture and Baylor's strong chal- lenge can’t be overlooked. Hinkle of Vanderbilt is an outstanding star. I don't think Nebraska can slip by both Indiana and Pittsburgh. If Villanova can duck Detroit, Clip- per Smith's young men should make the rest of the grade. I believe Villa- nova will make it, in spite of Andy Farkas, the able Detroit back. I feel confident about California and Colo~ rado—Colorado with its whizzer White ~—California with its human avalanche that includes Herwig, Meek, Vic Bot- tari, Schwartz and Dolman—and a lot more. I like Auburn—if it wasn't for one of the hardest schedules in the coun- | try—"Sweet Auburn, loveliest village of the plain”—with nine hard games, an almost impossible assignment. And don’t forget that schedules often can make champions—or wreck them This is a major point that so many overlook. Picking the Tops. UR scout from the West Coast writes me that California, under pressure, is two touchdowns better than any team in the country. Our veteran scout from the Midwest reports that Minnesota now is the best team in the Nation—barring no- body. This is not very pleasant news for Elmer Layden and Notre Dame, who meet Minnesota and Pitt on suc- cessive Saturdays. How did they ever leave out the marines and poisoned gas? Our Eastern scouts report that, from now on, Pittsburgh will gallop over Carnegie, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Penn State and Duke. Our Southern and Southwestern scouts are in a bit of a tangle over Alabama, Vanderbilt, Auburn, Baylor and possibly Duke. They are too smart to commit them- eelves at this point, and no one can blame them. When Brown can beat Columbia—when Maryland can wreck Syracuse—when Dartmouth can make only three first downs and beat Har- wvard 20 to 2—When Nebraska, tied by Oklahoma, can beat Minnesota—make this doubled and redoubled—you can get some sort of angle on what can happen in the big month, which hap- pens to be November, when the strain and the pressure accumulate—when you can almost see the bubbles begin popping in the back of their necks. For, after all, these young fellows yun from 18 to 22. They must face the hard-boiled attitude of more than 40,000,000 football followers, news- papers, radio and motion pictures. They are put on the spot—by all odds, the hottest spot in sportdom. Not even a World Series compares with it. They still are a bunch of young fellows going to college. They are all giving out everything they have to give, win, lose or draw. Their mis- takes are normal, natural and to be expected. The wonder is they don't make more. Many more. And this is something for the crowd to remember. They put more fire and fervor into their play than anything else sport will ever know between two of our best-known oceans.

BECAUSE of the interest which has been stimulated by the “Kicking Koed” and the possibility that the game might be played for charity, the site of the American University- Randolph-Macon game on November 6 may be changed from the A. U. fleld to Central Stadium. Although perfect playing conditions exist, seating facilities at the A. U. grid will not accommodate even 1,000. Central, with its 11,000 capacity, therefore is being considered. Eagle officials are pondering the jdea of turning receipts over to the needy school children’s lunch fund.
