Buell. May Become Harvard
 COach-,FOOtbaII JOttings

New York, Dec. 16 tR -- With coaching assignments still to be made and the question of over em- phasis and professionalism yet 10 be determined, football continues to hold a prominent place in the sport spot light, although the playing season is long passed in collegiate ranks.
 Not satisfied with taking several leading players from the college ranks 10 start an argument that is far from over 1t has brought about two rcsignations from the army. Captain J. J. McEwan cabled yes terday from Porto Rico tn he would leave the service to cod4h the University of Oregon for nvdyears, and Ed Garbsch for four years center at West Point, has decided to cast his lot with professional football.
 Meantime the big three coaching question appears to be nearing q solution. Bill Roper, mentor of a sensational Princeton, has signed for at least another year with the Tigers and it is reported that Leo LearN, lawycr-coach of Harvard ends. will have full sway at Cambridge an- other year, succeeding Bob Fisher, who has retired. Fisher. however, denies that Lcary has been nomin- ated.
 Charley Buell, famed non-scrim- magng quarterback of Harvard in the past also is receiving a great deal of consideration as coaching timber, Buell. was regarded as a re- markablo field general and very sel- dom carried the ball. His toe &C., counted for many points however. ] Major Frank Cavnnaugh. former Dartmouth mentor and for several years successful at Boston college, may go elsewhere as the Bostonians failed to sign him for another year before the annual contest with Holy Cross. Eddie Casey IS said to be 1 candidate for the Boston College post. He was a great backtleld man , at Harvard.
 The National Collegiate Athletic association. meeting in New York l December 30, plans q concerted at- tack on efforts to professonalize collegiate football. A resolution for consideration of the delegates previ- ous to the convention has been drawn up, it follows in part:
 "a. By limiting preseason train- 1 ing.
 'b By limiting the number of intercollegiate contests.
 'c. By limiting the number of games played in other than college stadia.
 I'd. By abolishing so-called ath- letic scholarships and improper proselyting.
 "e, By encouraging intra-m mural and inter-class football.
 And moreover. be 1t resolved, that the educational institutions be | further recommended to refuse hereafter to employ any or continue in employment any coach, trainer, rulers, officials, or others that in any capacity give service to or aid in the promotion of professional | football"

LEGION VS. PEXTO
Eddy Glover Post Basketball Quin- tct To Open Season Against Fast Five of SOuthington.

The Eddy-Glover post. American Legion basketball team, will open the present season Thursday night at the Y. w. C. A, gymnasium against the PcXto quintet of South ington. This is new departure in basketball circles in this city in hat mid week games will be played and q second team has Teen formed to represent the city. The team will play every Thursday night at the Y. NJ. C. A. gym with the exception Of December q, which is Christmas Eve.
 The local team is recruited from the Industrial league and is compoS- cd of some of the fastest players in the league. The forwards will be filled by Jasper and Luke of the r. X r. Corhin five and Bclscr Of the Tafnir quintet, last years high school captain. Hoist lanlly center for the r. {. F. Corbin five, will jump in his regular position while the guard positions will be taken care of by Arburr of inc p X r. rorhin combination; Nyborg of the R. G5 F. five. former I. M.

 The Southington quintet played against the Guards in the seasons opener this year and 2though they were outc}asscd in every department hy the Guards, they will ho well able to cope with the Legion team.
 Cushing and Connors play the forward petitions on the visiting t,am with England at center. Hart ford and Back, are the back court mon and the former is a threat at shooting while the latter is one of the best guards in the state. Tn" game will be played about 9 o'clock with dancing to follow. \ prnlim- mary game will start of the evening at > o'clock,

man in that loop, will jump at cen ter In the guard positions are Mc- Carthy, formerly with the North western University team and J. Mcfarland, captain of last years Commercial High school quintet.
 This combination in it's opening games this year, has far outclassed every team 1t has met. Several good combinations took them lightly and were badly beaten and humbed. The New Haven outfit would like noth- ing better than to set New Britain down as this would be a real feather in the teams cap and would mean a busy season for them from Satur- day night on.
 Coach Billy Dudack is putting his charges through their paces for q stiff weekend. A team of the caliber of inc DiXics to be met on Friday night and another like the Elm City Five 10 be conquered on Saturday night, means a busy double nights program for the local guards. Coach DudaclI states that his team is more than equal to the occasion and for this reason, he looks for a double victory.
 The preliminary game al the arm ory Saturday, will see the National Guard Reserves battling with the Burritt A. C, team. This is a begin ncr for the junior championship of the city and will be a real battle from the word go, The two teams have met and conquered every team that has played them so far this season and both are in great shape for good argument Saturday night, All in all, Saturday night will be a great basketball dish for the fans of this city.

(BY BILLY EVANS)

Herb PcnnOCk, star sOuthpaW of the New ' ork Yankees, is real proof that q strong heart is greater than q giant physique as a pitching asset.
 In civilian clothes or wearing h!6 baseball uniform one would never select Pennock from flock of ath- Ictcs as the most effective southpaw in the American league. He is
 Pennock is frail, has less stuff than q number of other lefthanders in the majors yet he is tough bird to beat, The reason plenty of courage, the will to win and an ideal temperament
 Herb Pennock is 10 the south paws of the American league what Waiter Johnson is to the right handlers. The two have much in ccmmon other than physique,
 Never once during his career can player, manager or umpire recall an instance where PcnnoCk displayed n pecvc, He accepts the breaks of the game as they come, never Criti- CizCS a tcammatc or uses the umpire as an alibi.
 Tough for the Giants.
 Herb pcnnoCk, aS much if not moro than Babe Ruth, brought back to the Yankees much of the lost prestige as q result of twice being defeated by the Giants.
 It was Pcnnock who stopped Nc Graws team in the series of 1923. When pcnnoclI opposed the Giants, McGraw's club had taken eight straight victories, exclusive of the lie in the 1922 cent and the open ing game of the 1923 classic.
 Pcnnock stopped the Giants. That victory made the mon of Hug gins feel that the iinX was broken, that the Giants could be beaten. Later in the 1923 series he saved the day as relief pitcher for Bob ShaWkcy and won the all-important deciding game from Artic Nchf.
 In addition to courageous heart, pcnnOCk possesses intelligence. There is thought behind every ball that he pitches. When batter who has q weakness faces Pcnnock that individual can be prepared for the worst. rcnnock simply pitches them where the batter doesn't like 'cm.
 Like a number of other American league stars, Herb PcnnoclI is q protcge Of Connie Mack. Strangely enough, he turned in the best game of his carcor last season against his old teammates .h"atrg the Athletic. l to Q, in 15 innings, the Mackmcr making only four hits.
 PcnHock allowed only PSI earned runs per game last season. Som, ! pitching in these days of the lively ! ball.
