YANK OUTFIELD
IS A QUESTION
FOR NEXT YEAR
Hopes Are : Pinned
on Babe Ruth's
Playing.
BY JOHN B. FOSTER.

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus)
New York, Nov. 27.-Miller Hug
gins is strictly up against it today
in the matter of his outfield. He
knows it and he is making strenu-
GUS efforts to strengthen his outer
gardens.
Should Ruth fail next season to
play up to what is presumed to be
his normal speed, the Yanks will
be in terrible fix, unless Higgins
can get a little assistance from the
other seven clubs of his league
thorugh neighborly swap of play
ers. He may get this help, but his
chances are slight.
Ruth fell off last year and when
the official averages are out they
will bear out the unofficial aver
ages that Ruth's fall was no small
drop. OF course, every player
must start sometime to drop back,
and the faster the top speed, the
sooner and the harder they drop.
The question worrying Higgins to-
day is whether Ruth's inability to
keep his terrific pace in 1922 was
the beginning of the turn in Wal
Looping Babes career. Ruth has
ben in the game long time, which
occasionally is overlooked, as so
much attention is given only his
meteoric term with New York.
The minor leagues did not de-
velop any good Vutfielders in 1922.
The scouts travelled up and down
and back and forth, some of them
going to country hamlets in pur-
suit Of players who were called
Corners in their neighborhoods. The
scouts found them all to have weak
arms or that they swung wildly at
bad pitching or knew nothing about
running back long hits. One club
spent nearly $4,000 in railroad fare
alone chasing men to the south and
the northwest in quest of young
hitting outfielders without a sign
OF one developing.
Higgins is reported to have ap-
preached the White Sox for a trade
but Chicago wants everything the
Yanks have, including mortgage
on the new field, so very little can
be expected from that quarter un-
less the Chicago American man.

INDIANS. FIGHT.

Game Ends 6 to 6 After q Hard
Battle: Brindley Stars for
Moline Team.

One Of the hardest fought games
of the year for the Moline Indians
occurred yesterday when they bat
tied the kalona, Iowa, aggregation
to tie score of 6 to 6, at the Ka-
Iona field.
Brindley, former Independent
player, was one of the stars for Mo-
line at quarterback, along with Al
sene, who showed fine work at
right half. Kalona scored in the
second quarter and Moline scored
In. the last quarter. Both teams
failed to kick goal. Brindley made
the touchdown for the Indians by
a fake drop kick formation when
the Indians were on the 32-yard
line. Kalona's touchdown was re-
allied by a penalty of Is yards
which was imposed on the Indians.
The penalty brought the Kalona
team five yards from the goal line.
The Iowans pushed 1t over in the
next play. The Indians attempted
four place kicks and the Kaiona
team two. Fry and Hochstetter
starred for the Iowans. The line

CARDINALS,
Second Victory Over Windy City
Eleven; Canton Scores In
Rapid Order.

Canton, Ohio, Nov. 27.-For the
second time this season the Canton
Bulldogs proved their superiority
over the Cardinals Of Chicago here
yesterday afternoon, by downing
the Windy City eleven, 20 to 3.
The contest practically clinched
the championship for the local out
fit, which has not lost a game this
season. The game was played on
a covered gridiron, but there
were few fumbles.
Line plunging and forward pass
es were seldom tried, both sides
being contented to punt after a
couple of attempts at the line. The
victors showed some good work in
heaving the forward pass, with
Smith, former Center star, throw
ing the ball. Chicago was not so
successful, the last two touchdowns
coming through Intercepted passes.
Lyman Defensive Star.
Lyman, giant Nebraska tackle,
was the star of Canton's defense,
throwing the Chicago backs time
and again for losses. as we'll as
blocking the punt that made posi-
BILE the first touchdown. Carroll
and Chamberlain played we'll at
end, with Smith and Elliott doing
the brunt of the work on the Of
Tense. Driscoll was the star for
Chicago. He was the only one able
to make much through the Canton
line. Anderson played a great game
at tackle.
Chicago's points came in the first
period when exchanges of punts
forced Roberts to punt from the
20-yard line. Anderson broke
through and blocked the punt and
Chicago covered. After losing the
ball when placement kick failed,
Roberts made a bad punt. the ball
going out of bounds on the 30-yard
mark. Three plays failed to make
first down, and A. M. Mahon drop
kicked from the 37-yard line.
Canton scored soon after the
start OF the final period. Driscoll

5-yard line. Elliott hit for four
yards and then Roberts went across
on quarterback sneak. Henry
kicked goal.
Score in Rapid Order.
The next two touchdowns came
in rapid order. Canton kicked off
to Chicago. and on the first play
Chamberlain intercepted pass on
the 25-yard line and went through
the Cardinal team for a touchdown.
Henry kicked goal.
Chicago kicked off to Canton and
after two plays Roberts returned
the punt. Chamberlain again in

the same spot and ran for touch

gridiron. This led up to score
which again placed West Point in
the lead. II to IA, and won the
game.
The Harvard Yale game was but
a repetition of Yale's former con-
tests. The Ellis gained more than
double the distance gained by their
opponents between the two and 20
yard lines but were quite without
resource when within striking dis
lance of the goal.
Owen, as the writer Of this pre-
dicted, was a terribly dangerous
man once he got started in the open
and it was his 57-yard run that
brought the ball up to scoring dis
lance for Harvard.
History repeated itself most
strikingly in the way this play
came about Years and years ago,
in the early eighties. in a Yale
Princeton game, a punt by Watkin-
son, the Yale back, struck Toler, a
Princeton bsckfield man, glanced
OF his body and was picked up by
Lamar, his mate in the backfield.
Lamar ran two-thirds the length of
the field, completing a play that
beat Yale then just as Owens run
did in Saturdays contest.
The defeat Washington and JEFF
ferson suffered at the hands of De-
troit makes it look as if the W. &
J. team had paid dearly for that
win over Lafayette. Lafayette
caught a tartar, too. in their old
rival high and were very lucky to
come through with a win by the
margin Of 3 to 0.
Iowa and Michigan were left at
the head of the Western conference
as Chicago could do no better than
play a tie with Wisconsin.

It was not until today that the
Army and Navy cohorts succeeded
in steadying down to 1 full realiza-
ton Of what had happened on
Franklin Field. So rapid were the
changes in fortune, and so replete
was the contest in extraordinary
happenings that it will go down as
one of the most remarkable games
in football in history. 5u5
The Navy ran the Army all over
the field in the first period but fail
ed to score. In the second the
Middies earned touchdown. Then,
however, the Army center, Garbisch,
kicked most remarkable geld goal
from a bad angle and with a cross
wind standing ON the 45-yard line:
This encouraged the West Point
ers and they put a touchdown and
goal in the third period, went into
the lead and apparently had the
game we'll in hand.
The Navy was far from licked,
however, and scored second touch
down and goal to prove it. AL the
Annapolis supporters and most of
the West Pointers believed then that
the Navy had the game won, IA to

Michigan COlU Neors
Worlds Record Mark

Producing 35,339.5 pounds of milk
in one year, Michigan COW has just
broken all previous records and is
said to have taken rank as the sec
ond highest producer in the word.
The now record holder is Kolrain
Marion Finderne, Holstein-Fries-
ian owned and developed by the Loeb
Farms of Charlevox She was
seven years old last September, a
month before completing her great
record. Marion had already made
very creditab!e figures at an earlier
age, the recently announced yearly
record mark being the elimination
Of her outstanding production
achievements.
Supervision of the record made by
the Charlcvoix cow was handled by
inspectors under the staff Of the
dairy division at the Michigan Agri-
cultural College, and the official fig
ures on her record was released this
week by M. II. Gardner CT Delavan,
Wisconsin, Superintendent of Ad-
vanccd Registery for the United
States.
Fat contained in the $3.50. 3
pounds of milk produced in 365 days
ending on October &c, 1922, totals
1,022.S5 pounds. She freshened az
the age of six years, one month, and
eight days, at the beginning of the
test. Twelve supervisors we're en-
ploycd in the conduct Of the test,
275 days of which were strictly of
ficial", with supervisor constantly
in attendance.
The record of Kolrain Marion Find
erne ranks her as one of the great
est milk COWS of all time, and is con-
sidered as distinct achievement for
Michigan dairy interests.
