New York. Dec. 2J.-Post-season
discussion of football gives as much
scope for argument as the hot stove
leagues of baseball but. whereas, ar.
ruInents pro and con clash in baseball
discussions over the coming season, the
greater part of football arguments deal
With the season Just concluded and with
the ratings of the various teams.
In them. comparisons of the teams
are carried to the limit III an effort
to assign each aggregation throughout
the country its proper rank ana 10
settle disputes as to precedence. Inns
forms a decided addition TO the enter
tajnment of the season to those VINO
are interested and gives them oppor-
t1nitv to apply many original methods
to discover standing of their favor
ties.
No Method Flaw Proof
1t is doubtful if any method can be
devised hat IS practical and at the
same time absolutely satisfactory. IN
other words. as there is not a grand
association with all the teams playing
a fixed number of games with each
other. there can never be a rating. such
as there is. for instance, in a pFofes-
sional baseball league.
Probably the best way to satisfy any
onen-minded man Of the standing of
the particular team he favors is to APP
plv various methods of analysis to its
seasons scores. What teams did 1t
beat: TO what teams did it lose! Then
a comparison of the games Of oppon-
ents with each other, as well as with
outside teams.
Still further checks may be added ~
the form of yardage gained, which IS
like base hits in baseball. This Is a
doubtful method because. while the
yardage gain does lead up to scores.
it does not always eliminate in a score.
In football Il team may gain two or
three times as many yards as another
and vet lose the game and, possibly.
not acquire a single score.
Checking Attack and Defense
One other added interesting way Of
comparison is to divide the number of
games played into the number of points
scored. for offensive strength. and then
divide the number of games into the
number Of points scored against a team
for it's defensive strength. This. it will
be found, brings about some peculiar
results.
Take, for instance. California and
Cornell in 1922. The former played
nine games and the latter eight. The
former scored 800 points and the latter
500. making an average of 44,3 for
California, and 42.3 for Cornell. Now
if we follow these two teams into the
defensive records we find that Cor
nell in eight games had q points scored
against her or an average of 81. and
California had in nine games 81 points
scored against her, or an average of
81.
Taking Iowa and Michigan. Iowa. in
seven games. scored POS points. and
averaged 29.5. Michigan, in seven
games. scored 1873 points. or an aver
age of 26.1. But on the defensive side
Michigan in seven games had ID points
scored against her, or 1.6, whereas,
Iowa, in seven games had 26 points
scored against her. or an average of
3.5.
Records of Service Teams
Then. taking the Army and Navy.
The Navy in seven games scored 1S5
points, or an average of 1913. and the
Army in 10 games. score 2t4S points. or
an average Of 22.8. OnTthe defense

Jess Willard Putting Out Lot
Of Talk on Fighting Dempsey

ing why he suddenly had become silent
and the charge was made that he mere
~ had been b~luffing in his challenges,
the news came out of Kansas that he
had struck it rich in oil over night
and was entirely too busy with his in
terests there TO pay any further at
tention to f~isticuffing.
Willard soon afterward moved to
Los Angeles. No word came from him
for a while. 1t was concluded that
he was content with the sight of his
gloves hanging up for the last time.
But, of a sudden. Willard felt the bat
tie fever surging within him again and
stepped forth with a new challenge.
No one paid much attention to it
and the possibility of a battle between
the two men again faded into silence.
A month ago Willard. out in Los
Angeles, mounted a soapbox and pub
licly began hurting challenges in the
direction of Dempsey through the me-
dunn of nightly meetings. This got
him a lot of publicity and Willard fol-
lowed it up by the fervent statement
that he actually and seriously and
whole-heartedly yearned to tackle
Dempsey again.
wanted PROMOTER.
That's how the matter stands just
now. Willard is still challenging
and Dempsey is still willing to fight
him. But no promoters stepped for
ward with an offer and the boys can't
get together unless someone agrees to
sign them up.
The promoters are rather indifferent
to the possibilities of this match be-
cause they feel that Willard is bluff
ing and even if he isn't bluffing. that
such long inactivity has placed him in
a condition where it will be utterly i'm
possible for him to get back into shape
to have a real chance against the man
who conquered him more than three
years ago.
Whether Willard ever fights Demp-
sey again depends largely upon Willard
himself. If he can prove in fights
with one OF two men who are among
the formidable foemen of Dempsey.
that he is even half as good as he
claims. he certainly viii have no trou-
BILE in getting a promoter to offer large
money for a return mixup with the
champion.
But if Willard adheres to his pres
ent attitude Of I'm fight Dempsey or
no one" it is doubtful whether he ever
will get back the opportunity. for the
simple reason that not one man in a
hundred thinks he is in fighting shape
or ever can get back into it-and
what the public thinks is one thing
which decides promoters in making
matches.

Is to say. he portrays George III and
queen Charlotte in their regal trap
pings and for the moment endesyors
TO play the game, tackles crminc and
pearls, goes in for trarpings with the
best Of tho courtly upholsterors. 1t
bores him, and this elbows in the paint.
lngs His still life is second rate. The
portraits arc pot boilers. But SEQ
nm when he is utterly himself, paint
ing tho ''Slr Joshua Reynolds" or the
'Dr. William lIartigan." portrait Of
the Irish surgeon who mended his
damaged arm and saved him for his
profession The formula goes by the
board and life remains, the essence of
portrature. which is worthless unless
it Is painted from within. The portrait
Of Reynolds is remarkable canvas.
strangely suggestive in the modelling
of the face and the handling OF its
tones, Of the painters dealings with
Washington. 1t points to the distinc-
ton between Stuart and his lesser con-
temporaries. They drew on the Brit
ment OF shell, trying to fit themselves
to it. Stuart takes on the shell and
then bursts through it, too keen upon
registering his personal impression to
este time with precedent
One Of the most inspiring things
about this master is his spontaneity.
The Sir Joshua Reynolds" is built up
with some deliberation. 1t is an official
portrait. 1t has traces Of the official
pattern. But mostly Stuart paints a
head and shoulders, or even a fuller
design, with only half an e G to compo-
sitlon. There is an amazing example
of him in this exhibition, the "Sir John
Dick" which is nominally court por
trait, the careful presentation Of
notability Haunting the order of the
knighthood Of st. Anne Of Russia. The
ribbons are not forgotten. Sir John
duly has his monument. But this is,
nevertheless, no monumental portrait.
On the contrary, in its resonant tones
md its brisk maestria it reminds US
OF nothing so much as the swift,
passionate art of Goya. 1t is exciting
to apprehend this aspect of Stuart, to
encounter him in such spirited form.
More often he is given to certain
figh-bred serenity, 20 the equable tone
OF the Or. IIartigan.' If there is
crisper, more vivacious quality in the
Lieut. Robert Calder and the Lord
Devon" they also arc equally faithful
to the standard of inpcrturoable ele-
gance which counts so heavily in the
influence Of British portraiture upon
American. That, indeed, more than any
thing clsc, IS indicated by these exhi-
bitons as at the foundation of our debt
to the eighteenth century tradition.
Stuart and the rest we're at ease with
their Contemporaries in London, partly
because they were dedicated to the
same ideals Of craftsmanship. bur even
more because they we're all imbued
with the same refined taste.
