BEACON FIVE
FAST JUMPERS
IS Cage Game Aspirants
Out for Places on
Team
OPEN SEASON
WITH PENN'S GROVE

Coach Naylor had the Beacon
basketball candidates out for prac-
tice yesterday afternoon at the Han
over Church gym. About 10 were
out, enough to make three teams.
The players were made to 60
through many departments Of the
winter sport in their workout, start
ing with foul shooting and ending
with scrimmage.
They practiced standing in various
positions TO toss the ball in the bas-
ket. One OF their positions was the
half turn, a difficult thing TO do at
first. but the Tenth street basket
ballers soon mastered the move.
Coach Naylor taught his proteges
the most significant tactics Of attack
and defense. He sternly warned the
players against any rough play or
unnecessary performance that might
bring a penalty in a game. Il IS
this heart to heart feeling that
makes the players at the business
school follow all the instructions
given by the coach.
In the scrimmage, which was OF a
rather light kind, Ed" Harrington
scored more points for his team than
did any one else. Harrington is a
clever laid az center. and should he
continue at the gait he has been
travelling in the workouts, there Is 10
doubt but what he will land the CEN
ter post on the Beacon varsity FIVE
for the season. The boys as a whole
profited a great deal from the scrim-
images, for Coach Naylor could
easily point out the defects OF GER
tain players, and the breaking OF
certain rules.

pointed manager for the season.

EDOUARD HoREMANs-

Edouard Horemans was born at
Antwerp, Belgium, April 25. 1893.
Horemans is m Of the most bril-
liant billiard players in the country.
He is left-handed and is without a
peer a mas playing.
The Belgian IS an interesting
player to watch because he plays
with a careless air and attempts the
most difficult Of shots without the
slightest sign OF emotion.
These remarkable feats performed
in this country last year give you
some idea of Horeman's b~r:lliancy OF
play:
Ran 701 at 1872 balklina, more
than 200 more than the previous best
record with all the rule restrictions
In force.
Ran PAS and 207 AT 1871 balkhne,
the only runs Of 200 or better ever
made at this game IN match play.
During the exhibition tour, cover
ing six months, he made 80 runs OF
800 or more, far. eclipsing any pre-
Vious records.
is the only man 20 average better
than so in a week OF competitive
play at 1872 IN a 4oO-point match.

BY HENRY u.

Omitted Press Sports Bditor).
NEW YORK. Nov. % Omitted
Press).-Two OF the greatest foot
ball events OF the season some as
rival attractions on tomorrow's
schedule.
Yale and Harvard engage in their
annual classic in the New Haven
bowl and the championship OK the
United States service will be decided
in the new Pennsylvania stadium
between the Army and the Navy.
Competition between the W. will
be negligible from a business stand
point. as they each have enough OF
a personal following 10 twice MI
any stadium in the country.
Yale and Harvard have had a
long time claim on the last Satur-
day OF November while the service
academies usually battled a week
later. The terrible weather that the
Cadets and the Midshipmen drew
IN the past three years. however.
caused the athletic officers OF West
Point and Annapolis to decide on an
earlier date.
From a general standpoint, the
Army-Navy conflict will be the game
OF the day and It should be a whale
Of a game.
The Cadets are represented by
the best team OF the last four years
and the Midshipmen have come into
the habit Of developing great elev-
ems since Bob Folwell took charge.
Both have wonderful playing lines
and both have fine running and
overhead attacks. In Smythe, the
Army has found a long needed field
and in Shaggy Cullen, the,
Navy has developed a great kicker
something that the midshipmen
lacked for three years.
The W elevens look TO be evenly
matched and many OF the critics are
picking the Army to win. The Cadets
however. TO beat the Navy will have
show smarter football than they
have displayed in several Of the
games.
II It comes down to a case Of
orainwork, the Navy ought TO win.

Brief Sketches of
Leading Billiard Stars
WILLIE HOPPE.


Willie Hoppe was born at Corn
wall on the Hudson. New York,
October II, 1887.
Hoppe, at Is, was a billiard mar
vel and was known the country owe
as the Boy Wonder"
At Paris. in 1906, Hoppe, at the
age Of 10. took the championship OF
the world at 1s.1 balkline from
Maurice Vignaux Of France.
In 1910 Hoppe won the champion
ship twice, and from that year
until 1921, when he was defeated
by Jake schaefer, Jr., at Chicago.
he held the title against all con-
tenders.
Hoppe IS much the older OF the
leading contenders for the title. He
IS - years the senior Of Horemans
and is we years older than
Schaefer.
Hopes long tenure as billiard
champion has been due to hard
work and taking excellent care of
himself.

Harvard booted all chances for
the Big Three" title and exploded
a lot OF fine hopes when the Grim
son was beaten and made TO look
very bad by Princeton. Up 20 thai
game. Harvard was generally con-
sidered by the critics as the most
powerful team in the east. The de
feat Of the Crimson was not as much
a surprise. as the manne In which
10 was brought about. Harvard made
errors OF fundamental football and
mistakes IN judgment that have
occurred since the Haughton
system was installed.
Yale was slow in developing this
year and was following obsolete
football tactics until the Army held
the Ellis 20 a tie. Since then. Yale
has sprung up wonderfully and as a
result. the New Haven eleven Will
be the favorite tomorrow.
Il must be remembered. however.
that Yale was a big favorite last
year and yet lost the game because
they played much like Harvard did
against Princeton. II must be re-
membered also that Harvard viii
not make the mistakes that caused
the downfall in the Princeon game
Regardless OF all that has hap
pened, it is our opinion hat Har-
ward should win.
Cornell. Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh.
Penn State, Centre and Georgia
Tech have Thanksgiving games and
being Idle tomorrow, the schedule
is rather light.
Lafayette and Lehigh will have
their annual battle at Easton. Dart

with the University OF Detroit.

a busy day with games beween I'LL.

What was scheduled to be a close
battle between the Millionaires and
the Star Taxis of Lewiston yester-
day, proved to be a runaway win for
the Spindle City aggregation Is to S.
There wasn't much chance for the
big crowd to voice itself unless it
rooted for the visitors as it was
pretty much all that way.
Bud" Fisher, Augustus southpaw,
who held the Taxis to a zero score a
week or two ago. started working for
the Houser clan but was sent to the
showers early in the slaughter. 1t
was the curtain for him in the third
when the Taxis pushed over three
runs. Sukeforth then took up the
burden with a full house and no one
out. He pitched the Houser men
out of the hole and sailed along
smooth in the fourth. But in the
fifth, Sweet Papa, what a larruping
he was handed. Not only was he
peppered for some telling bingles,
but, he was also lavish with passes.
1t happened something like this:
Del Bissonette first up waited and
walked and took second on Leavitt's
single to center. Ward pushed them
along with>a sacrifice. Gaudette was
given a free ticket and the pillows
were fully peopled. Wolf then short
one over the infield, Bissonette and
Leavitt counting. Mathews scratch
ed and when Hammond tapped one
to Sukeforth. Gaudette scored. Clyde's
throw being a trifle late. Callahan
laced one to left center, Wolf and
Mathews registering. Turnover
was out, Wilson to Sukeforth. but
Bissonette up for the second time
was again given a pass and when
Leavitt singled for the second time.
Hammond logged home. Ward con-
siderately lofted to Beaudoin and the
slaughter was over-for the fifth.
Another one was added in the
eighth on a brace of doubles and
then in the ninth there was another
merry-go-round, this time with the
added features of some costly hobbies.
Only three runs were scored this
time. however.
What was Augusta doing all this
time? Oh, going through the motions
though much lof it was lost motion.
There were isolated instances of real
baseball. Ray Beaudoin certainly
played whale of game, not only
at the bat but in the field as WE'LL
He tore off triple, double and single
and registered a wonderful assist
from deep right which nipped Leavitt
