BLUENOSE RETAINS FISHERMENS ‘TITLE BY BEATING THE HENRY FORD Gloucester,” Mass Oct, 26—(By the! diogram, “T enpeal to you for a square A P.)—Canada keeps cup, Blue- | deal for the Henry Ford, twice a win- nowe, the chamvion, 18 ¢ pion again! ner and today a crippled vessel. Quick of the iniernatiounal fish fleets un-: Answer.” der the deed of gift of the Halifhx; “What are yon going to do about Herald trophy. Captaln Ansus Wal-!it, Captain?” George H. Peoples, of s gets ano-her captain's cup. “‘;V‘n‘l(eru and his fellow Lunenburg- ers, making the most 6f the weather known on the banks as the fisher- men's ckamve, blow high blow low, today scored a second success against the Henry Ford, American challeng- er, and Captain Clayton Morrissey and his crew of Gloucestermen. The mar-{ gin was one of 7 minutes, 51 seconds abqut the sarae as the Bluenose lead of yesterday. These successive victor- jes merved to surpass the advantage held by the Gloucester boat, which bad won the first race only to lose it on a technicality and which won again at the next meeting. Malloch Sails the Ford Captain Morrissey himself took lit- tle :ln in the activities of the day! being doubled up as the result of a recurring illness. In his place Captain Al Malioch, one of Gloucester's hard- jest drivers had the wheel much of the time. Fast Time Made Today's was another smashing con- test. A northwester that ran from a moderate speed at the start up to 28 knots blew the boats about the 40 mile course in the fastest time at- talned to date, 4 hours, 43 minutes, 38 seconds, for the Bluenose, ¢ hours 56 minutes 29 seconds for the Henry Ford. This was an advantage speed for the winning schooner of 7.2 min- utes to the mile, speedy sailing with a one mile beat to the windward in- cluding—that final three or four miles of extra sailing. On this windward leg, a dead muz- bler, the skippérs tried to carry too much sail. As a result the Henry Ford lost her foretopmast, which snapped half way to the peek, carrying with it foregatf topsail and ballooner. The ekippers would not muzzle, so the wind did it for them, the Bluenose parting a ballooner stay which, serv- ing as a warning, caused Captain An- gus not to use the sails correspond- ing to those lost to the Gloucester- man. He modestly disclaimed intent at cowstesy or sportsmanship, saying he took tne sails down when he found they were no good to him. Morrissey to Challenge Again Tonight Captain Morrissey said he ‘was going to challenge the Bluenose skipper to another race. “I raced af- ter winning the first two times. We have now won two each. I hope An- gus will meet me again” he said. With negotiations pending for a race between the Bluenose and May- flower, the latter the Boston schoon- er which has been outlawed from the international competition, there was in prospect a contest for the cham- pionship of the North Atlantic fisher- jes, with a possible fourth contend- er. Captain Ben Pine said he would ask to have the schooner Elizabeth Moward included in such a race. If held, it will probably take place off here Saturday. Before either Bluenose or Henry Ford can race again, however, they must be hauled out and scraped. Keel damages delayed each this morning. Boats Close Together for 30 Miles The margin at the finish today was no mark of the keenness of the com- petition. For nearly 30 miles the boats were within biscuit toss of each oth- er. The accident which cost the Hen- ry Ford some of her top hamper mark- ed the stage where racing separation changed seconds to minutes. Not that it handicapped her for more than a few seconds in the seven minutes that it took thres men in the rigging to clear the wreckage away, but it came on the windward work of which Blue- nose is past mistress, and with an in- crease in wind which also served the Lunenburger best. The First Leg The Bluenose had shown herself surprisingly fast in the smooth seas and light wind on the first leg, a close reach. She had gained a 15 sec- ond advantage, and the weather berth at the start, in which Captain An- gus out-guessed the man at the Glou- cesterman’s wheel. But at the turn she led only by 50 seconds in addi- tion to this lead start. On the second leg of ten miles, a comfortable reach, they fought it out across the wind and the Heary Ford pushed up almost on even terms. On this leg she gained 38 seconds and at the turn her bowsprit almost swept the Bluenose stern as they jibed round the buoy, 27 seconds only between foremast and foremast. On the third leg, another stretch of plain sailing, a broad reach, they tvere separated only by seconds all the way. When the breeze became fairly con- stant at higher velocity, however, the Bluenose tore along at 14 to 15 knots #peed. The men of the Ford were call- | ed to the leeward rail for a main haul| end the big sheet was brought in to iry more concentiated power. Angus followed the maneuvre. They were still seconds apart. Trimming sheets, and swinging | around, starting the lons beat with a board on the port tack, by hte wind, Bluenose led by 58 seconds. The Lun- enburger took the big blow that they encountered better than the Henry Ford which was awash to her comb- ings. Heavy Wind Bends Sticks The Bluenose foretopmast showed signs of buckling, however, and they were in the process of trimming the #ail, when the big ballooners blew out, tied by a single string. The sig- nal was digregarded on the Glouces- terman, which was crowding on all possible sail and holding better than expected against the Bluenose on the windward work. It was only a moment or two later that the foretopmast snapped, and the accident occurred which, altheugh it lost some headway, was somewhat of a blessing in dis- Buise. Two light sails lost, the Henry Ford footed faster than before, an indica- tion that the fishermen in their pol- tcy of jamming on sail had not con- widered the efficiency of a little trim- ming. Angus was quick to see the point and within a few minutes had trimmed his dress accordingly. The wind was biowlng 25 knots at this timo, wnd &« Jump of a sea was on. The Iisary Furd board .of strategy tried to il up oa the Lun- enturger with seme fadapendent A% to leeward latuesterman on, with tas idea that by taking a loeg hesrd wad n short. ome, Le vould feich tho huoy und save| the secwacts Yead o wae tacking : procesa.

INTERNATIONAL COMMITTEE TO CONSIDER RACING AGAIN Gloucester, Mass., Oct. 26—In_spite of the victory of the Canadian schoon- er Biuenose today in the internation- al fishing vessel series, the 1922 com- petition for the Halifax Herald tro- phy may not yet be over it became known late tonight. The internation- al sailing committee, the body in charge of the annual contests, will meet tomorrow to .consider protests lodged by the American race commit- tee against the Bluenose. John Hays Hammond, Jr., a member of the international sailing committee said tonight that a meeting of that body had been called for ten o'clock tomorrow morning to consider pro- tests lodged by\William J. MaclInnis, chairman of the American race com- mittee. Twelve o'clock had been pre- viously set as the hour for awarding the cup to Captain Angus Walters of the Bluenose. Two protests were lodged against the Bluenose by Chairman MaclInnes, covering three points. One raised the point that the 4anadian boat sailed; today without an ofticial observer, and | charged that the Bluenose used a larg- | er staysail than she had carried in| the previous races. The second protest | alleged that in the series the Bluenose | used a suit of sails of finer quality than the ordinary fisherman's duck. WALTERS SAYS HE WILL NOT RACE FORD AGAIN| Gloucester, Mass, Oct. ZG—Captain4 Angus Walters of the champion fish- ing schooner, Bluenose tonight de- clared tonight declared positively that he would meet the Henry Ford, the defeated challenger, no more this year. | “We have won the cup,” he said. “That is what we came here for. If the Henry Ford wins the elimination races next year and sails down to Hal- ifax, we'll take her on again 'if we are the defenders at that time.” ARRANGEMENTS MADE FOR MAYFLOWER RACE BLUENOSE Gloucester, Mass., Oct. 26—A special race between the Canadian schooner, | Bluenose, winner of the international fishermen’s series, and the Boston schooner, Mayflower, twice debarred as a contender for the international} honors, was arranged late tonight. | The date of the race was tentatively set as Monday, next.

P.)— Chicago, the “mystery”’ team of the western conference is ready for her seconl clash with Princeton here Sat- urday afternoon in what will be the country’s biggest football game. When the Maroons face the Tigers. Not one of the 32,000 persons lucky enough to hold a ticket for the game could figure out tonight whether the Maroons have a highly polished open attack up their sleeve or whether A. Alonso Stagg, Chicago’s 61 year old veteran coach, plans to win by straight football tactics with the few simple plays he has showed in the three games his team has played this sea- son. Chicago's line, which made a cred- itable showing against Princeton last year, is a trifle stronger this season. King, weighing 236 pounds, is a tower of strength at center. The team has a surplus of backfield material, the| quarterback position being the only position that may cause Stagz any worry. The Tigers will arrive here Fri- day and will work out on Stagg field. JENNINGS SMASHES FOUR DIRT TRACK RECORDS St. Louis, Oct. 26—(By the A. P.)— The five, ten, fifteeh and twenty mile dirt track records established by Bar- ney Oldfield, were broken here today by Richard N. Jennings, of Pittsburgh, Pa., accompanied by Louis Chevrolet.

Holes-in-one are not uncommon these days, but a hole in one when you need it most is a rare avis. It fell to Harry Doty, captain of the Hudson River Coun- try Club golf team, to annex one of this kind recently. Playing i a four- ball match with J. Lewis Brown as his partner against Charles V. Benton, vice- president of the Metropolis Golf Associa- tion and Rodney Jarvis, another mem- ber at the Hudson River Country Club, Yonkers, N. Y. Doty and Brown reached the seven- teenth tee 1 up and 1 to go. Benton's tee shot at the the 135-yard eight ith was in a commanding position to run down a 2, but Doty played a jigger and the ball pitched on the upslope of the green and bounced into the cup, thus practically saving the match. These two feats undoubted’'y qualified Mr. Doty as a member of the Hole-In-One Club. SHOCK OF FORD'S DEFEAT TOO MUCH FOR AGED MAN Marblehead, Mass., Oct. 26—Just after he had exclaimed: “The Ford is losing,” John J. Pedrick, retired shoe manufacturer, who with former Selectman William J. Goldwaite was watching the international fisherman's race through marine glasses from a window of him home here this mnoon, dropped backward, dead. A physician summoned immediately pronounced death as due to heart failare. Pedrick, who was 72 years 'of age, | and prominent in the county, had been in normal heaith and had this morn- ing walked from town to his home, a distance of a mile and a half. He is survived by a widow and a sister.

The drills pre- ceded the departure of the squad of thirty-five players at 4.45 p. m., for Chicago, where the Tiger seeks re- venge fur last year's 9 to 0 defeat by the University of Cbicase MORICE'S THE CAUSE OF MUEH DISCUSSION e New York, Oct. 26 (By the A. P.)— The attenion of football followers has, within~ the past few days, been focus- sed upon the work of big game officials as the result of the reversed decision in the Columbia-New York wuniversity contest last Saturday. The average spec- tator, particularly the one without pre- vious playing experience, knows little f anything, regarding the duties and re- sponsibilities of the four men who have charge of what is without doubt one of the hardest assignments in the cat- alogue of modern. sport commetition. ‘Wherever footba'l authorities and en- thusiasts have ‘gathered during the past few evenings the conversation has be- come almost exclusively confined to the reverse ruling; its effect upon the game in question and other gridiron techni- calities. Much of this discussion went over the head of the non-expert. Those who injected remarks on the subject showed that they he’d little grasp upon the involved duties of the men who pass final judgment on the plays. Many Belleve Morics Right It appears to be the general opinion among football officials that referee Mo- rice in the Columbia-New York univer- sity game did the right and manly thing in reversing his decision once he was convinced that he had made an error. The stand ig taken regardless of the fact that forty eight hours elapsed be- fore such reversal was made public. As one prominent official put it: “What else was there for him to do? He realized that he had made a wrong decision and | the only thing to do was to rectify it, onces he was gure of all the facts.” Opinions Differ Opinions began t3 vary after this point. Some held that Columbia won the game under the reversed ruling while others took the stand that the referee’s juris- diction over the contest ended when he left the field at the close of the game. The theory of the latter faction was that N. Y. U., left the field a 7 to 6 victor and no amount of reversais at a later date could change the situation. The fact was stressed that eliminating or changing a play after a game end- ed deprived at least one team of an opportunity to shift its method of at- tack or defense, as the case might be, in subsequent plays. While such situations are extremely rare in this history of football the fact remains that officials fn such intercol- legiate contests work under responsibili- ties and strain se'dom experienced by the arbitrators in other prominent sports or games. This is particularly true of both the referee and umpire. They are obliged to follow the players to all parts of the ficld, frequently at top speed. This remuires a physical condion lit- tle short of that attained by the actual contestants. Referee’s Job No Cinch Bumps and bruises as the result of col- lisions with players are frequent. Re- cently an official was knocked senseless and had to be carried from the field. Some officia's who make a practice of diving into a scrimmage after a fum- ble, to ascertain ‘the holder of the ball wear football armor under their officiat- ing suits. Preparation for such duties not only physical conditioning, but mental train- ing as well. An official who has mas. tered all the rules, approved findings and decisions on trick plays, such as the shift in its various formations, must necessarily spend many nights in sttudy and conference with othar anthorities. Rules and approved decisions also change frequently and new plays are constant- ly being originated requirityz careful study and observation before it can be decided whether they are legal or illeg- al. For their work they receive from $2§5 to $100 and expenses per game according to the calibre of the contest. In the past rulings that did ot please one or the other team have led to the frank statement “you’ll never come back here again® Action by the intercollegirfie rules committee and the national col- legiate A. A, have rectified such sit- uations. It is surprising, howver, in view of the excitement, stress of play and rush- ing about of twenty-two p'ayers that mistakes are not more frequent. PIONEERS OF PENN STATE FOOTBALL TO BE HONORED New York, Oect. 26—Eleven members of the first Pennsylvania State college football squad—that of 1887—will line- up tomorrow night and recefve gold football embfeme from Hugo Rezdrk coach of the present day team. The original Nittany gridiron men will be be guests of honor at the New York c'ub of the Penn State Alumni associa- tion dinner and on Saturday they'll be on the sidelines at the Polo grounds when the 1922 team plays Syracuse uni- versity. x Colonel John Price Jackson, now con- sultant of the fuel administration in ‘Washington and one of the origiral Nit- tany players, will preside at the dinner in New York. BUYERS OF SCALPERS’ TICKETS SUE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO Chicago, Oct. 26—Charging that they were refused admission to the Chicago- Purdue football game last Saturday when they presented tickets purchased from scalpers, J. McElroy, C. E. Fruc- den and B. D. Duggan filed suits for $10,000 each in Superior Court against the University of Chicago. The. suit, it was said, was based on a recent deci- sion of a California court. Recently the the university started a campaign against scalpers, refusing to accept pasteboards sold by brokers. LAt MENTAL POISE JOKE TO NOTRE DAME ELEVEN ‘The phrase “mental poise!’-is 2 stand- ing joke with the Notre Dame football players., Last vear after the Iowa game Rockne told his men they had lost be- cause they had no mental poise. Return. ing to South Bend an old Hungarion janitor of one of the buildings, who was 2 football .fan, asked one of the play- ers what the cause of the defeat. “Mental poise,” the player snapped out. “I always knew that guy was a rot- ten football player,” retorted the janl- tor. FOOTBALL INJURIES ARE MADE PROFITABLE Chicago, Oct. 26—The entire North- western football team has been insured against injury by a blanket policy, Dana M. Edwards, director of athletics, an- nounced today. Terms on the policy as- sure the university a fixed sum for ev- ery player injured or taken ill during the football season. They also provide a 50 per cemt. additional sum for every player sent to the hospital. Compensation already have been re- ceived for five broken noses. PAYING AS HIGH AS $100 FOR FOOTBALL TICKETS Chicago,~Oct. 26—After a conference yesterday ~ between internal revenue agents and a representative of the Uni- versity of Chicago, it was revehled that as high as $100 was being paid by per- sons eager to witness the football game between Chicago and Princeton Univer- sity at the Midway Gridiron on Satur- day.
