GWEN GADE, the European director,
who has just arrived at Univer-

plains:
Somehow people get the idea I
call myself SvengaH. That suggests
hypnotism-sugges the bewhiskered
gentleman who, when he wasn't busy
initiating a pile of alfalfa hay, was
casting sinister spell over a lady
named Trilby with a fog-horn voice
and a foot like an antelope's.
"Others think I'm the Svengali who
recently toured vaudeville with

mind reader, either-just young
Danish fellow trying to get along in

The Umpire
BY H. C. SALSINCERs

Washington club this year. The Ma tionals had the poorest home run hitting team in the major leagues. They made 9 during 1924. They won pennant and world championship. They con centrated on getting hits and not on making home runs. Phila .elphia teams, while making the four-bagger the thing of paramount importance, managed to finish last each year.
 The important hitters of the majors do not go in for home runs. The four base hits is incidental as far as they are concerned. The two leaders of the big leagues, Ruth and Hornsby, are ex- cepted. Ruth hits homers naturally; Hornsby hits so hard that percentage of his hits are bound to be for the dis tance.
 Take the first six players in the or der in which they finished in the batting average and consider their home run totals for the season:
 American-Ruth 46, Stephenson 4, Jamieson 3, Falk 6, Collins 6, Bassler 1.
 National-Hornsby 25, Wheat IA, Young 10, Cuyler 6, Roush 3, Bressler 4.
 Only Ruth ever got team anywhere because of his home run hitting ability.

 The oldest of these pictures very ap- propriately presents the Gean of us all, Walter Camp. It is the fall of 1880 and Yale is playing Pennsylvania. He is clad in white canvas. He is heavier than he is today and his strength must be augmented by a pair of Samson-like side whiskers. He is the real halfback, swift, powerful and aggressive. A long, swirling punt comes down to him. He catches it on what today would be the 40-yard line. Away he goes into the Pennsylvania players, his white canvass clothing glinting in the sunlight, streak ing 60 yards to the Pennsylvania goal line.

He takes it on the bound near the sideline, 20 yards from his goal.

 Three Times In Bout

! ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 10.- Nor ris Schlaifer of Omaha fouled Jack Ma lone, middleweight, of St. Paul, twice in the third round of their scheduled lO- round fight tonight, after Malone had knocked him to the floor with straight right. hand punch.
 Virtually out from the punch that sprawled him momentarily on the floor, Schlaifer arose to weather storm of rights and lefts and then swung a blow that was palpably low. Malone, how ever, refused to accept the foul, waived the referee aside and plunged to the attack.
 Schaifer Fouls
 A hail of rights and lefts had schlai- fer on the ropes when he again fouled Malone this time so seriously that the St. Paul fighter was unable to con- tinue. While Malone writhed on the floor, crowd of angry fans sur rounded the ring but they dispersed peaceably when Malone arose in few minutes.
 Previous to the fouls, the fight was all Malone.

.MAROONS WILL
 CLAIM HONORS
Unless Defeated, Chicago Will Claim Tie With
 Illinois

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-At the cdose of the football season, if neither Hi nois nor Chicago has met defeat, an Illinois Chicago tie for the western con- ference championship will be asserted by the University of Chicago and gold footballs, emblematic of championship honors, will be awarded the players.
 This was learned today from the Chi cago athletic department where A. A. Stagg, veteran coach, was in high elation over the gripping battle in which his men carried their offense through the Illinois team scoring the first touchodwns of the game.
 In case Chicago wins from North western and Wisconsin in the remaining games and Illinois wins from Minnesota and Ohio, the Midway will claim a championship tie between Chicago and Illinois.
 The Chicago leaders say the situation, in, case neither Chicago nor Illinois meets defeat, will parallel the confer ence race of 1915, when Minnesota and Illinois escaped defeats and ended the season with three victories each, and Minnesota Illinois tie, and an Hi nois-Ohio tie.
 With no defeats this year for the two leaders, the season will end with 4 victories each for Illinois and Chi cago, one tie for Illinois and 2 for Chicago.

Twenty-Five Passengers For

Although perhaps not on the ssale that was at first planned the Birming- ham Boosters trip to Cuba will be car ried through, it was announced Mon day by O. l.. Bum, manager of the chamber of commerce.
 A representative of the Elliott Tours of Talladega, which will supervise the excursion, Monday wired the United Fruit company steamship line at New Orleans reserving 9 passages for De cember 2. This list may be augmented later by "promises" which have been made executives of the trip but so far only that number are assured.
 The Boosters party will leave Bir- mingham December 2 and return De cember 10. Besides the plan of the trip to cement trade relations with the Latin country it will also afford an out ing for business men and their fami- lies. While in Cuba sightseeing trips, banquets, dances and other entertain ment have been arranged for the guests.
