Eleven Killed.
Football Toll
OF This Season
Schoolboys Victims for the
Most Part; Only Two Col"
legians Are on the List

CHICAGO, Nov. 27.-Footbal exacted
toll of eleven victims during the 1920
season, which closed with Thanksgiv-
ing Days games, according to reports
to The Associated Press to-day.
The number of deaths was five mora
than in 1919, and one above the list Of
two years ago. There were twelve
lives lost during the 1917 season,
eighteen in 1915 and fifteen in 1915.
me majority of the youths killed
this season were high school ulavers.
VINO may have entered the game with
out sufficient physical training for so
rough sport, and with only limited
knowledge of the game. Only two Of
the dead were members of college
aggregatlons-two on college class
teams. One boy, twelve years old, was
KILLED in a game Of the "sand lot" vari-
ETY.. Six of the victims were members
of high school elevcns.
defenders OF the sport pointed to the
fact that not o fatality occurred in the
o'g universities OF the country, where
the came is conducted under EXPERT
physical direction and coaching. The
development of the open style of plav.
instead of the smashing game of a
dozen years ago, and the improved,
heavily padded uniforms and head
gears, are eliminating much Of the dan
ser, according to football experts.

years old; died October 20 of frac-
tured skull sustained in sand lot"

FinoI Point Score
Kurnaggae Entitled
To First Position
I'm "Met'' Ranking

The ranking of Ichiya Kumagae. of
Japan at the No. 1 position in the
'irst ten" of the Metropolitan Tennis
Association, as announced yesterday,
was an automatic performance, for
surely the great little Japanese out
classes all those who were eligible for
the local ranking.
1t was unfortunate, perhaps, that
Kumagae left this country to com.
pete in the Olympic games last sum-
mer, for he was thus depriced of the
chance to obtain national ranking
where he probably would have been
placed no lower than fourth.
The placing Of S. Howard oshell in
second place is based on sound logic,
considering it from purely local
tournament schedule. Three times
did the left-hander humble Watson
Washburn. now Davis Cup player,
which IS reason enough for putting him
just below Kumagae.
Fmblee Henderson, Charles Cham
bers and John W. Fersereau, the rank
ing committee, have done their work
we'll and conscientiously, and Incl
dentally they deserve a lot Of credit
for establishing q separate ranking for
the players of the metropolitan dis
trict, for there is no doubt but that
such a procedure will do much to in
crease interest in the sport in this
city.
The other positions were awarded as
follows:
No. 4-Harold T. Throckmorton.
No. 5-Francis T. Hunter.
No. 6-Dean Mathey.
No. Willard Botsford.
No S-Frederick c. Anderson.
No 9-Frank T. Anderson.
No. 1O-Seiichiro Kashio.

SYRACUSE. Nov. 27.-The Syracuse
University freshman football team. in
defeating the unbeaten Army Plebe
team at West Point last Friday, closed
its season with a clean record and now
lays claim to the intercollegiate fresh
man football championship of the East.
1t played one Of the hardest schedules
Of any freshman team in the country
and scored total of 22S points TO It's
opponents 90.
In addition to defeating the Army
Plebes, which team had clean record
with victories over New York Univer-
sity freshman and othe, strong metro
politan teams, the Orange yearlngs
secured victories over Pittsburgh
Freshmen and Indiana State Normal
School. both strong teams in the Penn
sylvania district, and with a 2l-to'o
victory over the Dartmouth Freshmen.
The strongest team in New England
and a close runner-up for the Eastern
championship. it is the belief that the
Syracuse claim TO the freshman cham
pionship cannot be disputed.
The schedule was so arranged ov

to play freshman teams OF representa-
tive universities Of the East, as shown
