his great run In this session. Forward
passes were tried repeatedly, the old
line smashing became secondary in
the attack and the gains were made
by sweeping open plays. The Navy

an effort to stop the rush, but in the
fourth period the followers Of the sup

the Navy tried and return by Hobbs
Of thirty yards put the ball on the

chose the new game and shot the ball

The Army kicked goal after their sec
ond touchdown but no attempt was
made on the last.
The Army entered the game as the

GOSSIP IN BRIEF FORM
after Thorpe, though he has never
seen him in a ball game. It is pre-
sumed Cal wants the Indian as a
drawing card because of the adj
vertising he has received. From
opinions of those who have seen
Thorpe in action he is. a real ball
player and would add to the play
ing strength, aside from his box
office attraction. He winds up his
college course at Carlisle this
spring.
The age of miracles is still in
our midst, whatever that means.
A Packey McFarland-Jack Brit
ton match is alleged" to have
been arranged for New York by
Billy Gibson of the Garden A. c.
This follows the report yesterday
that Packey and AID Wolgast had
hooked up tor a hght DeIOTe the
same club. The Packey-Britton
match is scheduled to follow
month or so after the stOckyards'
lad meets Wolgast.
That is a very ambitious pro-
gram, and if Billy Gibson pulls it
off Herman the Great and other
wizards will have nothing on him.
In fact, Billy will have nothing
much on himself, as the fighters
will demand guarantees that may
take the shirt off the promoters

them are disposed to treat the In
dian leniently.
Swedish authorities are unde-
cided whether to accept the re-
turned trophies Thorpe won at
the Olympic games, as he was
supposed to be an amateur and
was so clasSed when the games
were run off. The Amateur Ath-
letic Union, however, has sent to
Carlisle for the trophies and will
ship them to Sweden.
Thorpe added to his statement
by declaring he was not an excep-
ton to the amateur class, and that
many college athletes played ball
in the summer for money. He said
he had the names of several.
James E. Sullivan, secretary of
the A. A. u, invited Thorpe to
tell all he knows. 81 hope the
number Of athletes named by him
will run up-to forty or fifty, said
Sullivan. He made no explana-
ton of the latter part of his re-
mark.
The London Daily Citizen
sums the situation up correctly
in an editorial, which shows in
sight into American athletics. 1t
says: There is no reason for the
hysteria exhibited in America.
We would hesitate to dub Thorpe
4 sham amateur. He seems to be
suffering severely from unsophis-
tication and faithful indiscretion.
There is no doubt that the Amer
lean committee acted properly,
butwe wish they had not started
in on a Door Indian"

NEW YORK. January 25.-The "sys-
tenn" as the various combined forces
for evil in New York have been called,
and the part it plays in the corruption
of youth, were described by Assistant
District Attorney Frank Moss tonight

eral hundred representative citizens.
Supreme Court Justice Hughes, An
drew Carnegie and other noted men
paid tribute to the prosecutor of Po-
lice Lieut. Charles Becker and the
gunner for the murder of Herman
Rosenthal, the gambler.
1.-The system cares nothing about
differences of race, religious faith or
politics." declared Mr.. Moss. Its men,
bers work together for their mutual
protection. They draw to themselves
young men and women, the boys and
girls-taking them even out of our
public schools. They corrupt them:
they add them to their numbers, and
the army of crime and vice grows in
Humbers and in solidarity
Justice Hughes referred to Mr.. Moss
efficiency in public service Mr..
Carnegie, declaring Mr.. Moss had placed
the city under an unpayable debt, said:
TT is upon such men that we have
founded our hopes of continued improve
