Cu- hill, founder of in the United States, Mr, Cahifi, who is secretary of the Unit States Football assoclation, which controls soceer in this country, suggested that all-star elevens of both countries meet either in the United States or abroad to decided the cham- pionship and settle the question of soccer supremacy hetween the two soceer sing the merit of the Ameri- can style of soccer as played by Am- erican born players, Cahill stated that America was about ready to pass the old country in playing this game, which was imported from the British Isles. Favgrs Americans to Win, “I believe,”” he continued, “that could pick a team of American born players that could defeat any All-Brit- ish team today.” “When the Third Lanark team came to the United States last year for a tour of this country, it was made up of picked internationalists—a strong combination. Yet one of our teams in the cast, not a champion, played the Britons to a standstill. “I made the suggestion to the l.an. ark manager that we could beat Eng- land, and then I made him this offer: To pick an All-America team to play } a picked RBritish team. I agreed to play abroad if the Dritons would guar- antee our expenses, or 1 would guar- antee the expenses of the British team to this country if they cared to do that. He has not accepted the pro- position “8uch a4 game ought to be played abroad because of the immense inter- est that would be created. In Eng- land the international cup ties draw crowds of more than 100,000—twice our maximum totals Iin baseball. And I still stand ready to go and belicve the United States would win. Gone Back in England. “They ha ood still in England or gone . The United States is still inferior in finesse, as the Britons are past masters at trapping and con- trolling the ball. But a team of ‘11 second’ men breaks up this combina- tlon. In America the game is played in high for the entire contest, where- as in England they want to relax 1In goal shooting, speed, aggressiveness and other factors America is e( 1l to or hetter than the old country today. “This opinion is shared in veden, Norway and Denmark, elevens from which countries have met foothall teams from this country and from the British Isles, too. Swedish authori- ties long ago told me that America had outstripped Ingland in tootball strength. [ believe it." Could Pick Good Team Mr. Cahill also expressed the opin- ion that a picked team from St. Louis could fill the All-American require- ment, although he said many fine Am- erican born players were being de- veloped in the east. The Scullin team of St. Louis hold the championship of America. Paying a tribute to Fngland as the home of soccer, Mr. Cahill concluded. “The United States owes a great debt to the old country boys who in the past have taught us the funda- mentals and who are responsible in part for the present standing of the game in this country. There are many wonderful old country players on teams in the United States today. But I think the American Eaglets are about ready to quit their nests.’ DARTMOUTH WINS Hanover Team Turms Tables Hampton Roads Naval Nine. Norfolk, Va., April 8.—Dartmouth turned the tables on the Hampton RRoads naval base team yesterday, win- ning a hard hitting game by the score of 10 to 6. The college team showed marked improvement over the exhibi- tion they put up yesterday and many sharp plays were made by members of the Green squad. : Seavey, the Dartmouth husky catch- er hit the ball into left field for a three bagger and scored a runner ahead of him. Shaneman also starred at the bat, securing two hits and being responsible for a pair of runs. On The Herald Classified can accommodate you. to nothing to try.

PROTEST DISALLOWED Kaceys League Directors Vote Against play Hartford, That Games Won Over Rockville be Thrown Out. At a meeting of the managers of the various teams in the Kaceys State league held last night at Hartford, it was voted to disallow the protest of the Hartford team against the two games won by New Britain over Rock- ville counting in the final standing. Rockville had a team in the league early in the season, and after some kickup, dropped out of the circuit. When New Britain practically copped the championship last Saturday night by defeating New Haven, the Hartford management put up a howl against the Rockville games counting. It may be necessary for the locals to play one more league game this season to clinch the title. Should this be so, the protested game with the Meriden Kaceys, which was ordered played over, will be staged in this city next Saturday night, Manager Larry Man- gan announced today.
