Overs Fine Shot

Ii was against young Jones in this
tournament that Dyer played one OF
the great shots Of the year. At the
fourth hole the Pennsylvania cham
pion hooked his tee shot far to the
left. The ball pulled up in patch of
loose dirt at the edge Of trap. leav-
ing in addition to a down hill lie. TO
prove again that "the way of the trans
gressor Is hard" From this lie Dyer
was called upon TO play a $50 pitch 20
a fast green. guarded by deep trap.
He was forced also TO play 70 mar
row green, with sure trouble beyond.
Il would have been the hardest sort
Of shot from a perfect lie, padded
with grass.
But TO get the ball up with sufficient
backspin from that down hill, dirt
blighted landing looked impossible.
Yet by taking just a nip Of the loose
dirt Dyer got the ball high in the air
and brought il TO earth with a sharp
backspin only six feet from the cup.
Such, however, is the earefree or
careless. confidence of youth. Jones, in
place Of being depressed by this re-
markable recovery, barely waited for
the applause to die away before he
dropped a high mashie niblick pitch
even closer 20 the pin.
He isn't old enough yet" remarked
a veteran golfer near by. "to know
when he ought to lose hole"

MINNESOTA WINS
IN FIRST PERIOD

Minneapolis, Nov. 4.-Minnesota's
homes for clear claim to the West
ern Conference football championship
we're shattered to-day, when Illinois, al
ready defeated by Ohio State, sprang
one Of the biggest surprises OF the
gridiron season by humbling the pow
erful Gophers, Ia to 3.
Illinois scored two touchdowns in
the opening period and kicked two
goals, while Minnesota counted Its nine
points with a touchdown, a goal from
touchdown and a safety in the third
period.
At the outset Illinois whirled into the
Gophers with fash of speed that for
a time demoralized the Minnesota de-
fence. In the first few minutes of play
Illinois rushed the ball to within strik-
ing distance and Macomber shot across
for a touchdown. He also kicked goal.
In the same period, Kraft intercepted
q forward pass and twisted through a
broken field fifty yards for Illinois
second touchdown. Macomber again
kicked goal.
In the third period Minnesota ad-
vanced the ball consistently to Illinois
3.yard line, where Sprafks was sent
across for, the Gophers' lone touch
down. Baston kicked goal.
Ten minutes later Baston's punt was
fumbled by Sternaman, the ball rolling
across the Illinois goal line, where
Sternaman fell on il for safety, count
ing Minnesota two points.
In both the third and fourth periods
Illinois was outplsyed by Minnesota.
but al critical moments the Illinois line
held firm and prevented Minnesota max
ing the touchdown necessary TO win.

lock Hutchinson's Miracle Shot

At Siwanoy, in the big professional
tournament for the Wanamaker Tro-
pbv. Jock Hutchinson, the Draw Scot,
and Jim Barnes, the tall Engllshman,
were fighting out>the final round.
The fifth hole at Siwsnoy is about
$50 wards in length. One hundred and
forty-fye yards from the green there
is a deep, water covered ditch, that is
hardly more than three yards wide at
the top.
This ditch, replete at the bottom
with mud, water and rocks, is consid-
cred unplayable.
Barnes had just put his second shot
on this hole ten yards from the green.
Hutchinson, trying for a long wallop,
topped his second into the ditch.
Barnes had in sight a sure 5, and a
possible 4. For Hutchinson TO drop
out meant an almost sure loss of the
hole. But when he came to his ball
in the narrow cash, Jock found it par
TALLY under water, three-quarters sunk
in the ooze, with a sheer face only a
foot and a half beyond rising four feet
above the ball.
The SEQ. waded in with a niblick-a
miracle resulted. The ball had to
come up straight enough to clear the
side Of the ditch-an almost impossi-
BILE shot. II did this-and something
more. For, having once risen from its
captivity, it seemed TO take a forward
spin In the air. and when il came to
rest was just four feet from the pin,
li5 yards away. Three leading pro-
fessionals standing back Of Hutchinson
took council. or counsel, as the case
may be, and offered this verdict-"The
greatest shot OF the year, and one that
only a master could have played"
Blu, even then they were unable TO
explain what wrist wizardry could lift

Those who have inspected the plans
Of this new class Of racing craft say II
is more than likely that six more yachts
of the same design may be ordered be-
fore the new year. The new yachts are
TO carry approximately 1900 square
feet Of canvas.
For purposes of economy and TO IA
ciitate the cleaning Of their hulls the
new yachts are to have mahogany
planking over their frames OF oak. The
accommodations are TO be ample, in
GLIDING a double stateroom and per-
haps single one as well.
Ten smaller one-design sloops by the
same designer. with an overall length
Of % feet inches, Is feet inches

men of Southampton TO be sailed next
season on Peconic Bay. These small
racing craft are TO have sail area OF
$40 square feet and will draw feet 3
inches Of water. They are TO be built
at the Nevins yard, at City Island.
Up at Bristol, r. l., the Herreshofs
have begun some radical alterations, II
is said, on the "forties," about which
there was much complaint during the
last racing sason on account OF their
hard steering. 1t is understood that
the sail plan will be changed to give
them more head sail, which will NEST
likely involve the addition Of a short

TED CANN MAY
PLAY AGAINST
BUCKNELL MEN
Swimmer Appears to Have
Solved Kicking Problem
for Tuesdays Battle

New York University's football
eleven spent a quiet Saturday yester-
day afternoon on Ohio Field, prac-
Using under the watchful eye of Head
Coach Edwin Eustis. No game was
scheduled for the Violet. inasmuch
as they are to meet Bucknell UNI
versity on the home gridiron Elec-
ton Day.
Bucknell appeared on the Violet
schedule for the first time last season,
when they came on short notice to fill
the vacancy caused by the action OF
the Athletic Association in dropping
Trinity College from the list on ac-
count of the intercollegiate ruling
concerning professionals. The new
corners succeeded in playing tie con-
test with the Violet and, egged on by
the desire to take the measure of The
Bronx collegians in a grldlron battle
Immediately took a date this year.
Coach Eustis has been watching the
work Of the Pennsylvanians and has
worked out a special plan OF attack
against them. Several new plays have
been added to the eleven's complement
of formations. which the coaches eX-
pect will be of advantage to the Nio-
let, when the teams meet Tuesday
afternoon.
Teddy Cam. the swimmer OF inter-
national reputation who is now at
tending New York University, Will
probably land permanent position
on the eleven if he keeps up the good
work he has been showing Of late.
Teddy is in class with his brother,
Jake, who has been a mainstay of the
New York University aggregation for
the last three years. The younger
Cam is an exceptionally good punt
or. and, although his previous foot
ball experience has been in the line,
Re is good ground gamer, playing
halfback in his older brothers place.
Teddy will probably start Tuesday
and do the booting for the Violet.
thereby solving the kicking problem.
The followers of the Violet eleven,
while they are interested in every
game on the schedule, are looking
forward with great eagerness to the
last contest Of the year with Column
lila, to be played on the latter's field.
The Violet rooters and hackers are
also awaiting the Colby, Bucknell and
Maryland State games with great in
terest, for on these showings they
expect to base their dope" as to the
outcome of the battle with the Light
Blue and White.

in a driving rain.
Muhlenberg played fine game, while
Lehigh's fumbling was shocking.
Brains counted in Lehigh's scoring, as
against beef and Drawn. The turn of
the tide came in the fourth period, just
after Drummer had failed in his at
tempt at a field goal. The ball had
been brought out TO the 20-ysrd line
and both teams had lined up. Schweck,

ball and set II down, when he was
called back for conference. Quick

in and fell on the ball. The play was
allowed. and a moment later Lehigh
scored. when Brunner booted over
pretty drop kick from the 25-ysrd
mark.
A punting duel between Csskey and
Drummer led up TO the touchdown that
followed, Lehigh gaining on every KICK

ball on the visitors 3S-yard line. Af:er
Maginnis and Harrington had gained
a first down, a fifteen-yard penalty set
Lehigh back and apparently out Of

was bad and Drummer fumbled the ball,
but Quick as a flash he picked up the
pigskin and brilliantly threaded his
way through the entire Muhlenberg
line for touchdown.

Enter the Kid Phenom-Bobby Jones
The sixteenth hole at Merton is one
of the hardest holes on the course to
escape without disaster.
II is around 40 yards in length,
with the green set high, guarded by
grotto replete with sand, mounds and
other trouble-a grotto sixty feet
across. hundred feet in length and
at least fifteen feet below the surface
Of the green.
After good drive, this hole calls
for a brassie, spoon or long iron shot,
depending on the wind.
Upon the average, a 1S0-yard iron
shot is needed to turn the trick. In
the amateur championship young
Bobby Jones came to this hole in three
matches with the battle closely joined
In each case he knew well enough
that any sort of miss meant trouble
OF the worst sort.
There could be no finer test of iron
play or of iron nerve than the carry TO
this green, yet three times in success

eight feet away, one full midiron
against Frank Dyer for 1SO-yard carry
stopping exactly three feet from the
cup. And Jones followed this shot at
the next hole, 215 yards long, by plant
