That's what some Eastern football critics say about the former University of Washington football mentor now directing the gridiron game at Cornell. The Ithaca club has a light schedule this year and it looks, according to those critics, as if the Cornell team should go thru the season undefeated again. Cornell's only real hard games are with Columbia, Dartmouth and Pennsylvania, and, according to the pre- season dope, Dartmouth is the only powerful team in the lot. The other Cornell games are with St. Bonaventure, Niagara, New Hampshire state, Iowa Wesleyan and — Defenders of Dobie point out that the scholastic re- rements at Cornell are stiffer for football players than at any other institution in the country.

That Jost is just being reinstated after being barred for 30 days by the Portland commission for disorderly conduct, after Jack Josephs had been given the verdict over Harper recently, gives the fans some informa- tion as to his responsibility.

That explains his erratic work in the hempen square. When he would be hit on his good optic he would be almost blind. They say that’s what! happened in his bout with Johnny again in his tiff with Midget Smith. MORE COOKING ur The New York boxing commis. sion has ordered that Battling Siki will have to meet Kid Norfolk first before tackling Harry Greb or Jack Dempsey. Just more cooking up, the day before the bout, Harper’s manager, Charley Jost, wired Ay Salt that he would be unable to show here because he was hurt in tr Harper boxes Barney Adair in Portland Wednesday, and the papers have been carrying stories saying that Harper is in fine eon It was the second time that Harper has called off a here at last minute.
