MACK NEEDS BUT THREE

The lean leader of the PhiIadel-
phia Athletics is pretty web salts
fled with his infield. With an
other hard.hitting right-handed out
fielder he would be content with the
guardians of the asparagus beds.
too. For some years he has rated
81 Perkins with the great maskmen
of baseball, but now he wants some
one else to take the burden off that
Woodworking catcher.
With Rommel, Groves, Baum
gartner, Grey, Harris and several
others, Connie Mack will not let
loose any cries of agony concerning
weak pitching. He would be well
fortified with some experienced cam
paigner like Urban Shocker to carry
on with them.
Give Mack an outfielder, a catch
er and a pitcher who can make
the major league grade, and the
long downtrodden pachyderms will
cause a fed-hot sensation next
year.

The Washington times., 1924-11-10

If the writer had anything to do
with it, which, he hasn't. he would
move the football capital Of the
country to South Bend, Ind, and
let his critics do their worst. Notre
Dame again showed it's downright
class by beating Wisconsin, 80 to 3,
and is riding high on the crest of
national dominance. IL any team
in the country could have beaten
Princeton on Saturday, that team
was Notre Dame.
Men of the wide open West may
find that statement difficult of mas
ticulation. They will point 10 the
fact that Notre Dame was five
touchdowns better than Princeton a
few weeks ago, and that, therefore,
not only the Irish but Illinois. CHI
cago, Nebraska, Michigan, and
Western teams without end could
and can beat Princeton But they
missed seeing a modern miracle en-
acted when Princeton swamped Har-
ward, "a to 0, Princeon that was
1000 per cent better than the team
that faced Notre Dame.
If the West accepts Chicago for
its SCALED moral victory over
Illinois. and it should, il must also
accept Princeton for what it was
ON Saturday.
However, records will be records,
and an indifferent early season must
rob the greatest Princeton team of
the modern generation of national
recognition. The Chicago tie, in a
lesser sense, will deprive the lllini
of their top rank rating, unless
Notre Dame, Stanford, Pennsylvania,
and Alabama are beaten in one of
their remaining games.
The same holds good for Cali
fornia, unbeaten in four years, but
outplayed by Washington in a 7-to-7
tie on Saturday. Washington lost
another touchdown on a tumble,
otherwise Stanford now would
stand at the head of the coast pro-
cession. 1t does, in aNcertain sense,
but the skull cracking is still ahead
for Stanford, which has yet to
show that it musters an adequate
defense. Few Warner-coached
teams do.
Pennsylvania was none too
good in winning from George
town by field goal in the final
period, and the fact that Rutgers
could beat Lafayette by 43 to !
while Penn was pulling out q
6 to decision over the same
team last week, takes bit of the
edge off Pennsylvania's @Inbeaten
