They Ought To
Be Good On Wet

Meaning Herbert VoIlmer and
Ted Cam, Who Proved to
Be Football Stars

Those two players ought to shine
on a wet field" said an eastern foot
ball critic as he watched one of the
Columbia University tackles at work
and a New York University half back
kick the ball. Take flooded gridi-
ron and I'll bet that they make more
gains than any other five men," said
the critic. WHO are they?" asked
the spectator. well, the Columbia
tackle is Herbert Vollmer, and the
New York half back is Ted Cam.
Now you know
These two boys who visited Homo
lulu this year and made a decided hit
in swimming circles have both gone
out for the gridiron game. Vollmer
has been handicapped on account of
lack of weight and he has not been
able to use his crawl stroke, but des-
pite this fact has made the Columbia
team.
Ted Cam has been the mainstay
of the New York team in the back
field and has done the majority of
punting for his school team. Swim
mers as a rule have not starred in
football, but this year two aquatic
stars made decided hit. The cri-
tic. was evidently right when he
made the statement that the players
could perform in an excellent man.

Football fans will be. treated TO 2
double-header at Alexander Field To-
morrow afternoon. At 2 o'clock the
Town Team will meet Company f Of
the 25th Infantry and following this
battle the National Guard squad will

have good organization 10 oppose
the Towners.
Brash and Hicks have made big
showing in the games this year and
the addition of these two players will

Whether or not the Marines will be

ton as the line is unusually strong.
Machado and Coney are expected to

GOULD DEFAULTS
WORLDS TITLE

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-Word was
received from Jay Gould by the rae
quet and tennis committee at the
Racquet Club chat he will not defend
his title Of worlds open court tennis
champion. He was<p have met George
F. Covey In England for the title early
next year, but owing to the war he
has decided to relinquish ii. Coyey
will be notified of the decision of the
champion and, If he wishes, he can
now claim the title.
II can be said without fear of con-
tradiction that Jay Gould has never
had an equal as court tennis player,
either amateur or professional, and his
wonderful record has never been
equaled in the history of the game. He
first came into prominence at the
early age of is. when he won the
amateur championship of the United
States by defeating G. z. Sands in
the final round, three sets to none.
In the same year he visited England
and competed in the English cham
.picnship To reach the final round
ne had to defeat Joshua Crane, v. W..
OIhc, MAJ. -tACsB I'LL oAAN
". H. Pennell. This brought him into
the final round with Eustace h. Miles,
and because of his greater experience
Miles was a decided favorite. Gould
was a little nervous at the start and
lost the first set, 4-6, but after that
he played wonderful tennis and cap
tured the mex. three sets and the
championship. Gould's fame was now
firmly established, and he proceeded
from triumph to triumph. He won
the national championship in 1907 by
defeating Joshua Crane, three sets to
one. and returning to England TO de-
fend his title he again defeated Miles
three sets to two after the latter had
held lead Of two sets to one. In 1908
Miles visited America, but Gould de-
feated him by three sets to one.
