RECK'S"
Amen Corner
BY @BECK.-

WHEN a speed cop" fails to find
any speeders, the latest game IS
to run his flivver alongside some
chosen victim and invite him to race.
Picking the winner is then a dead
cinch. But it's a mighty cheap way
for a speed cop to earn his share Of
the fine.
MONEY talksI We've always had
w that notion and the victory of
the Los Angeles club in the Coast
league confirms It. Frank Chance
certainly cut loose the bankron to
grab an all-Star team and while sue
cess seemed doubtful for a time, an
unlimited drawing account permitted
him to get the men he needed TO
win the flag.
SATURDAYS eastern football re-
suits contained few real surprises
Harvard was figured TO beat Cornell,
though It was not anticipated that
the Crimson would run up such big
score. Princeton won from Dart
mouth but here the score was much
closer than was looked for
MINNESOTA looms up as the
w probable winner Of the Big
Nine" conference. The GOphers fairly
romPed with Iowa, Saturday, and
should go through their remaining
games without defeat
MICHIGAN showed a shck-tO-it
W. spirit in Saturdays game with
Syracuse, putting over two touch
downs when the Orange apparently
had the game cinched. The second
touchdown and goal, scored in the
last three minutes of play, gave the
Maize and Blue a victory by score
Of 4 to Is.
COACH LOTUS, Of the high school
football squad, certainly must
have injected some ginger into the
Tigers during the halftime intermis-
sion, Saturday. They played like
scrubs in the first half and like
champions in the second.
