SYDNEY SHARWOOD
REPORTED INJURED
Prominent Merton Golfer Seri-
ousIy Hurt While Practicing
Shots in Cellar
MAY NOT PLAY NEXT YEAR

According to report. an injury sus
tanned by a Philadelphia golfer may
Keep him out of competition next season.
Sydney Sharwood. one of the Merton
stars. was testing out several new clubs
in the cellar of his residence few days
ago. While attempting to swing with
a new driver he struck : box with the
club. and in the attempt to recover his
equilibrium he stumbled and fell. The
fall resulted in serious injury to Mr..
Sharwood's spine The Merton mans
physician has advised Mr.. Sherwood
that he should not play golf for at least
another year.
If the Merton man will not be able to
get into the game next season his alb
sence will be keen disappointment to
many followers of the sport in this dis .
trict. Mr. Sherwood is real lover of
the game. and his deep interest in the
sport is shown by the fact that he tested
out clubs at home, where the space
would make the practice hazardous.

Collegiate athletes who participated
in the Phocnixvllc- -ConShohocken foot
ball game at Norristown almost two
weeks ago are paying for it at the price
Of their amateur standing.
Joe Dumoc. the brilliant Lafayette

as ALI American. yesterday was de-
clared ineligible for further activity in
Maroon SPOTS by the Easton faculty
and Spagna. regular tackle at Lehigh,
together with O'Hcarn. n sub lineman
at the same institution, by the athletic
bosses at Bethlehem.
Many Casualties
The casualty list in incligibilities, not
physical injuries. of the Norristown in
dependent club game follows:
Pard Pearce. halfback. Pennsylvania.
Ben Derr, halfback, Pennsylvania.
Joe Dumoc, Lafayette, end.
Harry Spagna, Lehigh, tackle.
Jim O'1lcarn, Lchigh, guard.
Pearce and Dcrr were up on other
professional charges. but their play in
the Norristown independent club game
helped convict them.
Jim Neylon and Hcine Miller, of
Penn. and Bodie Weldon. of Lafayette,
are three other college athletes who
played with PhocniXville. but no action
was taken on them because they already
have played their last game for their
alma matters and will graduate in June.
Prof. Francis A. March, chairman of
the committee at Lafayette, stated that
Dumoe was declared ineligible because
he had played four years of varsity
football. but it was really the game ut
Norristown that brought his case up
for investigation. He stated that he
received only expenses for playing with
the Phoenixville eleven. Previous to
his entering Lafayette Dumoe played
two seasons with Syracuse and one with
Fordham.
Lafayette Hurt
This fall Dumoe was tower of
strength on the Lafayette team, his
great playing at right end aiding ma
terially in the success of the team. His
catching of two forward passes from
Captain "Bodic" Weldon, in the dying
minutes of the annual game with Lc-
high. turned the tide of victory to
Lafayette.
Dumoe was the favorite for the cap
taincy of next years team. He also
was counted upon to play a regular
position with the newly formed ice
hockey team.
Lehigh intends to restrict the action
of all athletes in regard to outside com
petition, and a committee has been ap-
pointed to draw up rules for future
policy along these lines. The commit
tee consists of Prof Palmer V. Johnson
and W. Okeson.
