P ————— Speaking of Sports Reports of an exhibition game be- tween members of the world cham- plonship Philadelphia Athletics indi- cate that George Earnshaw was one of the players whose home runs broke up the game. Although Earn- shaw was the hero in the world series, it was his pitching not his hitting that brought him the honors. Not all pitchers are poor hitters. ‘When Frank (Lefty) O'Doul was playing with the New York Yankees several years ago he was a pitcher. On many occasions he was brought into the game as a pinch hitter. He failed to made the grade as a pitch- er, so he was sent back to the minors. While playing on the Pa- cific coast, injuries made it neces- sary that he be used in the outfield for the Vernon club. His hitting earned him the regular outfielder’s job and he hit consist- ently for a league record. Soon he was called back to the major leagues but as an outflelder. He played with the Glants but is now with the Phil- lies anid will be with Brooklyn next year. Coach George M. Cassidy of the New Britain High school team has been appointed coach of the New Britain Machine basketball quintet. He took charge of the Corbin Screw basketball team in its first year of existence and its success in the past few years is attributed to Mr. Cas- sidy by his friends. Louis Squillaciote of 58 Cottage | place, weighing 147 pounds, an- nounced at the Y. M. C. A. he could put anybody his weight on his back within five minutes of a wrestling match. He challenged many but no one would take up his offer. Out of +a clear sky a little fellow, Felix Meyer, a tumbler from the “Y” ac- cepted the challenge. He weighs 125 pounds. The bout was staged and Felix| was the winner. He pinned Louis’ shoulders on the mat in five min- WITH THE BOWLERS ROGERS ALLEYS STANLEY WORKS LEAGUE . Staubly .

IN THE NAT|ONAL LEAGUE OF TH E WORLOS DARLING oF ™E NATIONAL LEAGOE NEWSBOY JOCKEY ADDS THREE WINS Louisville Bog, 17, Brings Three Months Total to 72 Oct. 14 (A—Jockey Eugene James, 17, former Loulsville newsboy, within little more than three months has developed into the riding sensation of the west and now has a record of 72 winners during his brief career. James Rode three winners at Churchill Downs yesterday, bringing his total for the meet to 15. He rode his first winner at Latonia July 11. The young jockey was selling pa- pers last February when he entered the employ of Luther Goose, trainer and former leading jock as an exercise: boy. He was reckoned too green to ride in a race during the Do :ns spring meeting, and the La- tonia meeting was well under way before he had his first mount. Cleans Up in Illinofs From Latonia he went to the Illi- nois tracks and began piling up & winning record. Near the end of the Lincoln fields meet he went down in a bad spill, but was only slightly hurt. Horsemen say he uses his hands Louisville, Ky in reserve until the stretch, then of the tiring pacemakers. ‘Inter-Church Managers To Discuss Basketball Plans for the coming basketball season will be talked over at a meet- ing of the board of managers of the Inter-Church league at 7:30 o'clock this evening at the Y.

They would die for dear old Rutgers but darned if they'll study. The question of whether or not hte city of New Britain will be rep- resented in the American Roller Hockey league this year is still un- answered. A meeting scheduled for Sunday was postponed until a later date. It is unknown as yet whether or not the games would be played at the state armory or Tabs' hall. [f the military officials will allow the use of a special floor over the one that would be used for dancing, basketball and drilling, it is prob- able that roller hockey will be play- ed at the armory. Negotiations are being conducted between Manager Al Politis of the New Britain Rams and the Sokol- Rosebuds of Bridgeport for a game to be played in Bridgeport next Sun- day. The Bridgeport team is not the same outfit that played the Paw- nees Sunday. The complicated condition in which the football rules now find themselves is evidenced anew by the | discovery that Yale scored an illegal touchdown against Georgla Satur- day and that—here's the joker— four very capable officials on the field failed to detect the illegality. Barre's run for a score after stab- bing a ball which had popped out of a Georgia back’s arms on the kick- off should have been disallowed, it now develops, as the kicking team may only fall on the ball and may not run with it on a kick-off. But Barres didn't know it, Georgia didn’t know it, the corps of officials didn't know {t—and it took even the post mortem rule experts more than 48 hours to discover their error. Again in the same game a Georgia man recovered a Yale fumble during & scrimmage and started to run with it in direct violation of the ruling that the ball is dead at noint of re- covery in these circumstances. The referee called the ball back, but the fact that the player ran with it shows again that there is doubt over the rules. ‘When the rules relating to fum- bles were remade a year ago to take some of the chance out of the game, the alterations also removed the ne- cessity for faultless execution of daring plays by minimizing the pen- | alty for failure. And they also seem to have left players, officials, and spectators in somewhat of a haze. In the old days a ball was dead when—and only when—it actually | stopped to move around the grid- iron. Now the referee’s whistle de- termines whether or not the ball is in play, and the rules even go so far as to tell just when a Kick stops be- ing a kick. All this may make for clarification of the code, but seems to be taking an unusually! long time to get used to the new rulings and definitions. New York can't “see” Kid Kaplan | et all. If he loses his coming bout | with Suarez the Latin will get a shot | at the championship, but if the Mer- iden lightweight comes through he won't be given the chance. Berg will get it. Which would seem to indi-| cate that the Kid, known in some | quarters as ‘“the pride of all the Kaplans,” is the pride of only the Kaplans. 1t would seem to us that the Sil- ver City boxer, even though he is on the short ends of the betting odds in his coming encounter, should get the | same break as Suarez and recelve the same reward for victory. | The Triangles will hold football practice at 7 o'clock this evening at the South strect grounds.

Jacob Ruppert, owner of the New | York club. McCarthy and Ruppert, according to an announcement from the Yan- kees headquarters, are scheduled to | confer early this afternoon. Ever since McCarthy was let out by the Cubs near the end of the season in favor of Rogers Hornsby, It has been generally believed that he would join the Yankees. This belief was heightened when Mc- Carthy refused what was said to be an exceptionally gencrous offer from the Boston Red Sox. It McCarthy is signed by the Yan- kees it will mark the passing of Bob Shawkey as manager. Shawkey took over the Yankee rein after the death of Miller Huggins. 5 | Influence beget partisan 9 |argument. THROUGHOUT 1. § Yost Finds No One Section ha Foothall Supremacy By Fielding H. Yost Ann Arbor, Mich, Oct. 14 (P— | Questions of sectional superiority port and Mythical divisions be- {tween the middle west and east have been “talked” for years. Now supporters of the west coast and the old south seem anxious t |break an argumentative lance with | my opponent. | “Prospects are pertect for a perpu- |tual vocal and typewrite clevage be- |tween the sections, the differences | made all the more intense througn impossibility of decision. The Pacific coast generally is as a ction of strong {teams. As only a limited of schools can finance intersec- | {tion winning five with one a tie. Only one of these games, Chicago's 126 to 6 defeat of Washington, was |against a Blg Ten team. Against |eastern teams the coast won nine {and tied one. | The above statistics disclose the south is the football power wWhen ‘mv(‘l(ng teams of the west coast. | Any football expert from New | York or New England, however, can lcall to mind the vast number of | !;mmes the eastern coast has won |from the old south and establish | the dominance of the east. | Accepting castern statistics and | | being logical at the same time, it| would follow that the east is bet- | Iter than the south, and therefore | | better than the coast. | But an eastern team has not won | |from a coast team in five years, if | {the records available here are com- | plete. \ | The real facts probably are that | there is little difference in football over the United States. The west coast has one advantage, a climate | which enables athletes to work out- | { doors the year around. | For five of the school months, the eastern and middle western | athlete s within doors. In the south | the extremes of temperature handi- |cap athletes. Football has led me into all but one of these sections, |and business into the other. | My playing days were in cast. The teaching years were the | at I number | | ington. Ky., foul, | South Bend, In | Milwaukee, [onio Kansas |and Wesleyan, Nebraska, Michigan, all in the middle west, and Stanford on the coast. |For 20 years my home was in the isomh except for the football months spent at Michigan. | Knowledge of the game Is about {the same everywhere. Eligibility \rules differ little throughout the |colleges if we except scattered |schools advocating independence in | education. The middle west led in athletic reforms and advanced rules regard- |ing participation of students in ath- |letics. Organization of conferences, with from eight to 20 members in [each, extended these rules to all sections but the east. | It would be a great boon to foot- ball as a game if it were recognized that football ability is equal throughout the Unitell States. Partisans are certain to argue, however. One dictionary defines | partisan as “unreasoning protago- nist.”” The word is closely associat- ed with “battle.” Because the ques- |tion of national sectional football | supremacy cannot be decided a fer- |tile field is left for the word bat- |tles of the partisans.
