N L 2 — T Speaking of Sports There isn't a member of the Nut- meg A. C. football team who is more popular with the fans, especially the younger football enthusiasts, than “Jumbo” Gnasdow, the hysky guard. He is playing better this year than any other year and with Tom Humphries aa his co.worker New Britaln has as good a pair of guard: a4 there is in the state. Unless Jonn Bzymanski or ¢ “Penoke” Ludwinowitz take a sud- den alump it is beginning to look as i they are going to hold on to their tackle positions at the high school and the two men who were slated for the jobs in th¢ pre-season dope, Bill Kuha and Tony Nevulis, will be put in at guard. If this can be worked it will be better for the team next year be- causs then the Red and Gold eleven will have two experienced tackles. Otherwise the team woyld be with- out any tackles since Nevulis and Kuhs are te be graduated. Guards can be made in one sea- #on, but 1t usuully takes two scasons to make a tackle. The huddle has been doomed on the gridiron, says & sports writer, Perhaps, Lut they'll still use it in the stunds. Did you know that Riordan, New | York University end from Bristol was a firemgn during the summer? Nechan Deodorian, the hard- working guard on the high ichool football team of past years, is now & regular left guard on the Franklin Marshall freshman team. Fred Zehrer is regular right end. Fred Saunders, captain of the high #chool team lust - year, la out of basketball for the present scason because of water-on-the-knee. He 18 employed at Corbin Screw Corp. and hewas belng groomed for a place on the team. Joe Luke, another member of the squad in out temporarily with an injured foot. Coach Mal Stevens of Yale may have a football team before the end of the season. Yesterday he had his complete squad on the field for the first time this year, but he still is taking no chances on scrimmages that might cause further injuri If the bucks don't have the nec- exsary sandpaper hands, make them belleve there I8 sandpaper on the ball, is the theory of Gil Dobie, vet- cran Cornell coach. The Cornellians fumbled frequently last Raturday so today Deble gave them a drill in ball handling in the rain. When they. get a dry pigekin they should be able to hold it. . i Chick Meehan has added a new wrinkle to football psychology. Be- fore New York university played IFordham last weck., Meehan had a huge photograph of their opponents placed over the entrance to the Violet training quarters. The results were 80 gogd that Meehan intends to continue Yhe practice the rest of the season. Tom Rmith, defensive back of Boston college, is a busy football player, in addition to I's regular duties he has to fill in for John Dixon at end when he comes back to punt and at center for Bernie Kilroy, who kicks the extra points after touchdowns. Where an opponent’s weakness is revealed, Coach Taté of Lehigh be- lleves' in making the most of his opportunity. Tate is preparing to test: Princeton’s line, which made a poor showing against Virginta last week when the Pennsylvanians in- vade Tigertown this Baturday. The first step was when he altered his line yesterday, putting three 200 pounders In the places of lighter men. - Harvard is sure of beating the Army Baturday if the game goes ac- cording to yesterday's practice ses- siens. At West Point the cadet scrubs, using Harvard formations, wcored twice on the varsity. At Cambridge the first team tried out the plays it will use against the Cadets and made four touchdowns. New York university seems to be the chosen victim of ite future op- ponents. Although Colgate does not play the Violet until October 27, the upstaters worked out yesterday on thelr defense against the New York attack and QGeorgetown, which meets the New Yorlicrs a week luter already has started preparations. The Falcon bascball team will travel to Ossing, N. Y. where they will play the Bing 8ing nine. All players who have agreed to make the trip have been asked to meet at the club rooms at the corner of Beaver 3nd Broad street Saturday morning at 7:30 o'clock sharp. A commiittee of five has been ap- pointed by the Kensington A. C. to make arrangements for the celebra- tion of the champlonship which was won in the Falcon serles. The ban- quet will take place In about three weeks. 5 ‘The baseball controversy seems to be settled. Manager Patsy Buckley said this morning that if the Fal- cons are so anxious to the city championship he is willing to let them have it, but that the Kensing- ton team proved it is greater and is ja better representation of New Brit- ain since it has more New Britain players on its texm than the Falcops. | The Plainville High school-New | Britain High school second team game was not played last night.

(UP)—Yale football followers are beginning to wonder if the new head football coach, Mal Btevens, is experiment- ing with a scrimmageless team.

Raturday's contest May Decide to Keep High New York, Oct. 17 (UP)—The practicability of having coaches in the grandstand during competition | among high school teams, and al- lowing the captain and boys to di- rect the mancuvers of the teams themsclves, has been under discus- sion by the gamds committee of the P. 8. A. L., in session here, It was suggested that this plan would give the students more op- portunity to think constructively for themselves and at the same time prevent coaches from running the team from the side lines. Should the plan carry it would affcet all high school sports. > N BETTER Chicago, Oct. 17.—(M—A first rate college football team would defeat the best professional ecleven, in the opinion of A. A.
