at an almost prohibitive premium.
but nearly everyone can at least
hear an account of his favorite

game between Michigan and Ohio
State furnished an example. Per-

through radio broadcasting.
More than ever coaches are be-
coming aware of the possible
boomerang qualities of the forward
pass. This is a result of the i'm

game. An intercepteds pass made
by Workman of Ohio State gave
Michigan a touchdown. Syracuse
can attribute her defeat by Pitt to
a similar occurrence and other ex-
amples are occurring on some OF
the fields throughout the country
each Saturday.
Football on the Pacific coast is
arousing more interest than ever
before but scores so far this sea-
son go far to indicate a lack of
equal form between Stanford and
California, the traditional Cali
fornia rivals. So far, defense at
Stanford has fallen largely to the
secondary line. So much has been
taken out of the Palo Alto backs
on defense that the Offense has
been weakened. Degroot has been
the Stanford star, but he has lot

New York, N. T., Oct 2S.-The
stars are now really beginning to
shine above the football horizon.
The season has advanced to a point
where form and class. is beginning

Kipke Of Michigan, however, al
though not nearly so powerful. is
producing similar results. He is
certainly one Of the most danger
Gus men at intercepting 4 forward
pass on the gridirOn today. Parkin
Of Iowa is another man who takes
a lot of stopping and is of all
around value to his team.
This is equally true of Martin
eau of Minnesota, while Workman
of Ohio State is the most accurate
and canny forward passer in the
country. Kaw Of Cornell is almost
on a par with Owen of Harvard
and Wilson of Penn State is almost
Of their class.
When it comes to linesmen, good
ends are beginning to show their
mettle. Kadesky Of Iowa and Kirl;
of Michigan are two crackerjacks.
Red Roberts of Centre is too we'll
known to need any introduction.
Among the men in the middle OF
the line who are showing class are
Bedenk of Penn State, Pugsley of
Ohio State, Cruikshank of Yale an
Bredister and Garbisch of West
Point.
The old hands in the football
coaching line have come to rel
ize that while it may do little good
to tell a man of his blunders in the
heat of contests, criticisms can be
driven home most effectively after
the game is still fresh in thei-
minds. Yost. according to recent

ASK MILLION

Understood Owners of Dodgers
Value Their Club at High

tCOpyrlGnt, l92z, Dy Inc ArguS.)
New York, Oct. est has been
rumored two or three times re-
Gently that the Brooklyn club of
the National league might be sold.
II anyone wishes to purchase it,
the buyers will not find such COM
PLEASANT owners to deal with as
when the Brooklyn club was poor
and in debt. The club owns its own
real estate and 1t is mighty valua-
BILE property, too.
Charles H. Ebbets.> the principal
owner, values his interest at ST.
100000. That does not sound much
like the paltry thousands which
were taken into consideration when
the club was last reorganized. The
financial history Of the Brooklyn
club is as checkered as a shep-
herds plaid suit. 1t has made
money for some men and lost it
for others. Today it is held at 10
times the price that would have
been asked for it when it fiourished
in another part of the city of
churches.
The present owners are in no
eager frame Of mind to retire from
baseball. Yet II they were offered
their price, perhaps they would
consider a transfer of their prop
erty. The question is whether any
one would offer a price which will
come anywhere near the sum now
considered a fair price by the COM
pany now in control.
Boston and Philadelphia in the
National league need strengthen
ing and the organization realizes
that unless something is done to
bolster the playing strength of the
eastern half Of the circuit, the
Giants will have a clear swing in
their own territory all next season,
while in the west the Pittsburgh,
Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis
teams, far better matched, will be
at each others threats. Their strug-
gle for supremacy will make their

Moline viii be treated to its flrst
glimpse Of Sunday football Of class
on it, home field this season. to-
morrow afternoon. Ted Freeborg's
Moline Indians, one Of the scrap
piest professional elevens ever de-
yeloped in these parts. and the Wa
terloo A. C. Champions of the
Hawkeye state for three seasons,
will be the principals in this debut
three seasons. Thus Iar this year
It's slate has been kept clean by
healthy margins. The Hawks de-
feated the Moline clan, 10 to 0, last
season, and, with a better team this
year, are confident that they will
double last years score in their
own favor. They have creditable
record and q defeat by Moline
would be a heartbreaker to the
players and their followers.
The Indians are tired Of travel
ing. They want to play as many
games at home as possible. They
want the backing of the home folks.
To do this they must make show
ing which will gain them favor and
support on their own lot. A vic
tory over Waterloo is practically
the only manner in which they can
gain the desired prestige.
4Tomorrow's tilt is a sort OF dou-
BILE test, which concerns both fans
and players. II the Indians make
good, it is practically surety that
they will get the patronage. On the
other hand, il there is sufficient in
terest here, and the Indians make
q good showing, the Freeborg clan
will continue playing at home.
Waterloo will arrive in Moline
on a special sleeper tomorrow
morning. They are scheduled to
leave Waterloo at 10 tonight. The
visiting guests have put in some
extra practice ticks this week in
preparation for their first invasion
Of foreign fields. They have also
signed a couple OF new players.
They will be at their best.
The Indians, too, have been la
boring strenuously for the home
lid litter. A quartet of fuzzy plays
have been doled out by Coach Free
borg during the week. Most Of the
boys are in good condition. Gala
hans discolored optic has nearly
resumed normal proportions. Gus
DeClerk as been confined to his
home with a bad cold, but may start
the game. Peterson has a stiff
neck, which has forced him to be
mere spectator at this week
practices, but Coach Freeberg be-
lieves that Peterson viii be able to
start at his old post.
{ The Indian mentor is not posi-
tive as to his opening lineup. He
may start the same men he did al

PASSING ALL PACTS
Brandegee Reservation Not
Believed to Affect Four
Power Treaty. 49,
BY CHARLES f.. HOCUE.

By Cable TO The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright. 19o:.
TOXIC. March 27.-The Brandesee
reservation to the four power treaty is
accepted by officials. newspapers and
the people Of Japan as a political ges-
ture not affecting the value of the rati-
f1cation. An unnamed foreign Office Off
cialisquoted in the leading newspapers
as praisins enthusiastically President
Harding's foresight in appointing Sem
ator Underwood as a member of the
American delegation.
"The adoption of the Brandegee reser-
vation," says this official, was perhaps
unavoidable to overcome the opposi-
tion. The farsighted wisdom and pru-
dent circumspection of President Hard
ing selecting Underwood as a delegate
was simply admirable. The success of
the other treaties Is assured
The Asahi Shimbun sees no sound
reason for the adoption of the reserva-
ton. and asserts that the Senate's view
diverged widely from the expressed
opinions of Senator Lodge and Secretary
Hughes. Under the circumstances
continues the paper, "the United States
faces a great diplomatic effort to ex-
plain to the contracting parties that
the reservation relates merely to inter-
pretation."
The Asahi Shirnbun is confident that a
final understanding will be reached.

NAME OF KE0KUK STREET
Senator Ball Would Have the Thor
oughfare Hereafter Known as

Under bill introduced today by
Senator Ball. chairman of the Dis
trict committee. the name CT keokuk
street from Military road and eth
street to Wisconsin avenue would
be changed to Military road. The
bill has the approval of the residents
of Keokuk street. Keokuk street is
now practically continuation of
Military road, which runs through
Rock Creek Park from Brightwood,
and which is a famous old highway
which ran across the rear of the for
tifications of Washington during the
civil war. keokuk street presents
ready entrance from Connecticut ave-
nue. into Rock Creek Park by way of
Military road.
1t is necessary, however. that an
act of Congress be put through to
change the name OF keokuk street.

Ball today provides for the widening
of 4th street to ninety feet between
