December ~

The date for the meeting between
Abe Mitchell and George Duncan,

ter Hagen and Gene Sarazen, Amer

big international match of the tour
for the Britons. They are expected
to arrive here on November 29 and

1t will afford Hagen an opportun-
ity to regain some Of the prestige
which he and Macdonald Smith lost
when they We're defeated by Duncan
and Mitchell shortly after the Brit.
ish open championship this year.
The two Britons probably will go
direct to the Pacific Coast from
Florida, engage in a number of
matches out there and then return
to Florida, via the winter tourna-
ments planned for Texas and the
other Gulf States.

COLUMBIA DENIES SHIFT
FROM t1AuGHToN system

NEW YORK. Nov. lit was
denied today by those in authority
at Columbia University that the
appointment of Doctor Arthur
Brides, of Yale as line coach meant
semi departure from the Haugh-
ton system, it being pointed out
that Brides and Doctor Paul With
lngton, head coach, are products Of
the same school Of coaching. Al
though one is Yale man and the
other from Harvard, 1t was declared
that both were developed by the
school of George Foster Sanford,
and that Brides system in no way
would conflict with those Of the late
Percy Haughton.

steam cleaned and pressed it,
which the world is anxious to
get the formula for.
1t was one of those scores
that you have to look at twice
to believe. Some bipartisan
spectator in the stadium yelled
deliriously, what are you play
ing pinochle 2"
Thirty-four points among one
big three team is nothing to be
sr1eezed, coughed, sneered or
laughed at. The official scorer
yelled "thirty-four to nothing"
but some people didn't believe
him until they heard the echo.
Those Harvard players who
didn't go on the field in a trance
We're soon put in one. Prince
ton played like a team COM
posed of four horsemen with
seven little assistant cavalry
men riding behind on ponies.
Illinois and Chicago didn't
play to such an insignificant
score either. Each team made
more points than most college
students can count to. Soon
higher mathematics will be a
compulsory course even in our
smaller universities.
By the same street-car token,
moron could have kept the
tally of the Georgetown Penn

out having to soil his dirty
cuffs.

be picking on Brown, while
Princeton is tackling another

ficult to master without getting

Nor will It be an easy cinch, as
the fellow said, to selact an eleven

Grange.
For quarterback, it is generally

date or two.
In the event that an All Western
backfield is named this section of
the country would be certain to out
score the East in the first team
choices. There would be only
seven positions left open and the
East would have to battle with the
West, the Coast and the South for
the remaining places. Therefore,
its chances are quite plausible for
making its poorest showing since
the All-American vogue began.
AS a matter Of fact the Middle
West is by no means light on
logical choices for the forward pc
sitions. 1t has a half dozen or more
ends of quality in Rokusek and
Kassel, Of Illinois; Collins and
Grove, Of Notre Dame; Otte and
Rooney, of Iowa, and Wilson OF
Ohio State, among others.
Bach. of Notre Dame; Henderson,
of Chicago, and Hancock, OF Iowa,
are excellent tackles. Pondelik, OF
Chicago; Fleckenstein, Of Iowa; Wei.
bel. of Notre Dame, and Dreyer, OF
Ohio State, are the leading guards.
It will be mans work to dis
place Walsh, Of Notre Dame, at
center, although the East has real
contender in Lovejoy, Of Yale.
But whether these men are the
whole cream pitcher or just touch
of the sweetening remains to be
seen. They merely are few that
came under the writer's observa-
ton: yet their class is sufficient to
counterbalance anything the entire
East may care to mention.

Al. star duckpin bowler shines a
trifle more than usual and is
pointed to as Washington lead
ing pin mauIer." His distinction
as a rule is short-ltyed, lasting
several weeks in a season after
which another. shoots to the front
and eclipses him.
Like the proverbial dog. every
bowling star has his day. Now
this one, now that, occupies the
pinnacle OF bowling esteem and
having had his turn slips into com
parative disregard and opscurity.
The bowling leaders by whose
efforts the game has grown to-
be WasllingtOn,s predoaninating
winter sport have overlooked
one sterling idea, Il Is believed,
that would spur interest in COM
petition.
There has never. been any
punchy effort made to determine
an undisputed, official INDIVIDUAL
CHAMPION.
Excepting league prizes. which
the average bowler regards highly
for their monetary value, and re
ceives very little recognition fol
winning, the duckpinner has no great
affective.

may gather in league prizes. there,

cOyet the title Of CHAMPION, q
title that would set him off from
all the rest, that would give linn.
distinction not otherwise to be
attained.
Each year Washington holds post
season tournaments in which prizes
are awarded that mean little to the
winners aside from their monetary
worth. The winners are soon for
gotten.
How soon would be forgotten the
bowler who met in direct competition
Gil of the other star bowlers of the
city and vanquished them? His name
would be hyword among the city's
bowling population, he would be an
attraction wherever he rolled. He
would lend COLOR to the game.
His crown would become the oh
jective Of every duckpinner pos
sessed of the spirit of achievement
That title, in a word, would become

Why not have IL?
Why not gather in a tournament

Forty games Is considered q fair
test of q bOwlerss ability. Those
forty games rolled on different
sets Of alleys, say ten each ON
four sets of drives, would give
undeniabIe prestige to the winner
OF such q tournament. II looks
worthy Of q trial.
Such a tournamnt could be made
