PRAYING COLONELS
 BADLY HANDICAPPED
But Denial Is Made That MOran'S
 Going Is Cause

Louisville, Ky, Jan. 24.-With- drawals and rumors of withdrawals of members of the Praying Coionels'' prospects for the 1924 gridiron season back into the spotlight today.
 Any intimation there had been "wholesaie withdrawals" of Colonels since Charlie Moran rendered, and lad accepted his resignation as head coach to accept a similar post at Bucknell college, was a cue for quick denial, according to reports received here from Danville. However, it seemed certain places of three stall wart colonels at least, must be filled before the 1924 eleven could muster a full roll.
 Hudgins, Spurlock and Summers, halfbacks and clever players, have returned to their homes, Dr. c. F.. Allen, chairman of the athletic board of control at Centre, said in a state ment branding as without foundation reports that Colonels were retiring since Moran's resignation became known. These men, Dr. Allen said, all were to leave, regardless of Uncle Charlie" Moran's action.
 Hudgins, he said, was called to his home in Amarillo, Texas, 10 be with his mother as he was the only boy in the family and death last fall of his father made such action imperative. Summers decided some time ago to leave school at Christmas and become established in business in his home town, Abbeyville, La. Spurlock, whose home is in Mt. Cory, Ohio, has had difficulty with examinations, faculty members were said to have intimated.
 Reports that the Colonels were to lose the services of Covington, Thom- asson and Lemon were declared to be groundless.
 If there should be two or three fellows among you who think more of football than you do of your studies and who may desire to continue play ing for me at Bucknell, forget such desire right now" was Moran's curt admonition. No Centre man ever will be given chance to play on a Bucknell team Of mine."

YALE BASKETBALL TEAM
 DEFEATED BY PRINCETON
Tigers Take Lead Early And Never Are Headed By Eli
 HoopStcrs

Princeton, N. Jo Jan. 2i. - The Princeton varsity basketball team last night defeated Yale, 27 to 10, in an intercollegiate basketball game. It was Princetons first victory in the league schedule.
 Although the game was hard fought the Tigers outclassed the champions of last year at every phase of the game and once taking the lead in the first half, i6 to 6, never were headed. Individual scoring honors went to Sam Pite, of Yale, who scored six field goals and one free throw. Last nights victory enabled Princeton to pass Yale in the intercollegiate league.

corker, but to me the outfield stood out more than any of the other se- lections, unless it was the pitchers. It seemed as if Wagner had selected four players for the outfeld that would be hard to improve upon.
 The Wagner story started me to delve in my scrap books where I have filed away the All-America teams as selected by such baseball authorities as John McGraw, Hughey Jennings, Connie Mack, Frank Chance. Clarke Griffith, Fielder Jones and other cele- brities.
 Consensus of 30 Experts
 Of 30 teams selected by leading experts. Ty Cobb and Iris Speaker were placed on all of them in the outfeld. Fred Clarke and Babe Ruth were on a majority of them, while such players as Roush, Keeler and others too numerous to mention were considered.
 However, the consensus Of the ex- perts were agreed that the strongest outfeld combination would consist of Clarke, Speaker, Cobb and Ruth.
 Some combination.
New Britain herald., 1924-01-24

What players comprise the greatest outtield of all time?
 In all probability if vote were taken among the experts and players as to the greatest outfield a certain team ever boasted the Speaker Lewis and Hooper trio of the old Boston Red SoX would get the call.
 The combination of Lewis in left, Speaker in center and Hooper in right was certainly a corker. It was trio that could do everything well, yet, perhaps, nothing better than throw.
 It was foolhardy for a base runner to take any chances on a ball hit into the Boston outfield, as far as getting an extra base in addition to the eer- tainty. Lewis and Hooper were right handed throwers and had deadly aim. Speaker, l regard, as the most accur- ate left-handed throwing outfielder I have ever seen in the majors.
 Donie Bush summed up the throw ing ability of that outfield when, in disgust after twice being thrown out at the plate. remarked:

IMPOSS|BE
 OF EXPLANATIONS s
Pitching, Hitting, Etc., "JBt Happen" Without Apparent Cause

Slumps in baseball, whether they be batting. pitching or fielding, are im- possible of explanation. They just happen. Often a pitcher who has had the opposition at his mercy for eight innings is batted all over the field in the ninth. A pitcher noted for his control suddenly develops Q wild streak that makes him look like some untried rookie. Leading batters often go game after game without getting a hit.
 When a player falls into a slump, naturally he worries. That doesn't improve the situation. Instead of do- ing things in his regular style he starts to experiment. That usually proves fatal.
 Perhaps one of the unusual pitch ing reversals of form on record was staged in the last world series be- tween the Giants and the Yankees. The upset had as its victim Artie Nefh, master southpaw. The explo- sion came at a time when Nefh had the Yankees at his mercy, the win HiDS Ol Iut Sdiilt stttiitu tO Dt Il UltEG formality of completing the nine inn ings. Had Nefh won that ball game the series would have been up to the seventh and final game. There is no telling what would have been the out come. The Giants would have been hard to beat.
 
 Since the close of the series Nefh,s reversal of form has been the subject of much comment. Some of the criti- cisms have been decidedly unkind and undeserved.
 A great many fans, some of them National Leaguers. others Americanl partisans, have asked Billy Evans what he thought about it, since he happened to be one of the umpires in the series, He says: 'The opinion ex-

GREAT THINGS
EXPECTED !! OF.
INDIANS SON

Lexington, KY, Sept. TO- A little
mite of horseflesh, at his mothers
side on E. R. Bradley's Idle Hour
farm here, some day may attract
the attention of lovers of the sport
of kings. He is Black Colds baby
brother, son Of Black Toney and the
little Indian pony Useeit.
Seldom has it happened that more
than one member Of family mas
achieved greatness on hte track, but
there are exceptions. Three notable
horses by the same father and
mother. were bred by "Bob" Anderson
on his farm near Georgetown, Ky.,
some years ago. There were Dick
Welles, Ort Welles and Dick Fin
nell, by King Eric from Teas Over
by Hanover. All were great racers
and each sent to the track scores
of winning equines.
It is not improbable, then turfmen
say, that Black Colds little brother
some day will receive the plaudits
which have greeted the older horse
this year and increase the purse of
his owner, Mrs. r. NJ. Hoots, of
Tulsa, Okla.
He is eligible for the Kentucky
Derby in 1926. Foaled shortly after
his brother won the Golden Jubilee
Kentucky Derby, this little colt has
already won praise from turfmen as
promising looking youngster.

TEST WEIGHTS Z.
SHOWN GOOD IN
NORTH DAKOTA
Averages Higher Than Last
Year, Agricultural Col
lege Tests Indicate

Fargo, N. D.. Sept. 1O.-The test
weight for North Dakota wheat is
higher this year than it has been
for many seasons, in the opinion of
c. E. Mangels, cereal chemist at the
North Dakota Agricultural college
Mr.. Mangels bases his belief on the
results obtained from testing 227
samples of wheat collected by coun-
ty agents, extension forces and the
banks in thirty-five counties.
The average test weight of these
227 samples is 62.l pounds and Mr..
Mangels believes that the entire
state wide average will be more than
so pounds. This is about five pounds
heavier than last year when the av-
erage was $50 pounds.
In Cass county 40 samples that
had been collected from every cor
ner of the county in systematic
survey made by William Guy, county
agent, gave an average test weight
of 62.2 pounds while ID samples in
Grand Forks county tested 61.3.
Fourteen samples from Richland
county tested an average of 6O.7.
"The gluten content will probably
be higher in the Red River valley
than it was in 1922" says Mr.. Man
gels, "but it will doubtless be less
in the state as whole than it has
been in the past two years. In 1928
the gluten content was very high
and the state cannot expect to make
that high mark in 1924. Parts of
the state will show high content
of gluten and others will show some-
what lower than the past two years
average. High gluten wheat is ex-
pected to bring good price, con.
siderably better than last season.
More samples are to be tested
from the counties already included
in the list and from those that have
not yet reported but it is doubtful
if the state average will be greatly
changed from that determined by the
present SAMPLES.
