COLLEGE PLAYERS
CAN'T MAKE GRADE
Only a Few Stars Make Good in
Big League Society
by BILLY EVANS

The college field for developing
ball players Is more or less q dis
appointment to major league owners
and managers.
Only a very limited few OF the
highly touted collegians that come
up each year make good. Most of
them find leap from the college
ranks to the majors far too difficult
a task.
This is particularly true OF ath-
letes who shine on the gridiron as
we'll as the ball field.
Why should this be true? once
asked that question of two of the
games greatest managers, Connie
Mack and John McGraw.
ITO be a success in the majors
the athlete must like baseball bet
ter than all other sports; he must
love to play the game. The college
football baseball star seldom does"
said Mack.
Most college players fail TO take
their baseball seriously" said Nc
Graw. ut seems a good many of
them are willing to take q shot at
the big leagues simply to acquire
bank roll to help satisfy some other
business ambition.
What McGraw and Mack had to
say about the college player inter-
ested me. I decided to make a
thorough investigation.
During the summer in my travels
over the American League circuit
am constantly in touch with the
stars of that organizations; incident
ally run into many of the celebri-
! ties Of the National league.
Picking out Il dozen players who
had starred in baseball and football
while at college, l asked them which
Of the games they preferred TO play.
Nine of the players said football
was the most interesting game in
all the world 10 them. Two said
they liked baseball, while a lone
one said it was about a toss-up
with him.
The player who called il draw
decision was Eddie Collins, one Of
the few college football baseball
lights who has developed into one
of the outstanding celebrities of the
majors. While at Columbia Univer-
sity Collins starred on the grid and
diamond.
Il still like my football" said
Collins, even though | haven't
played in game in over 90 years.
satisfy my appetite for the siren
nous sport by taking in all the big
games every fall.
II also like my baseball equally
well, but there is a thrill that fell
low gets out of football while in COL
lege that is lacking in all other
sports"
The record of both major leagues
show a long list of football base
bali stars who have failed to make
the grade in the big show.
Among them are such noted ath-
lctcs as jim Thorpe of Carlisle,
Glenn Killingcr and Hinkic Haines
of Penn State, Hoge Workman of
Ohio State, Jack Blot of Michigan,
Caldwell of Princeton, Cashier and
Mohardt of Notre Dame.
All of them will tell you they
| like their football much better than
baseball They are shy the spirit of
the game so necessary to success in
the majors.

SAFETY NOT NEW
Chalking Up An Intentional Score
Against Own Team Is An Old
Trick at Evanston School.

Chicago, Nov. 10. - (By NEA
Scrvice) - Chalking up an inten-
tional safety, such as "Tiny" Lewis,
Purple player. did in the recent
Observation-Disclosures game, is not
new to the Evanston school.
A year ago Capt. Wieneckc pulled
a similar play against Michigan's Ag-
gies. With the score standing 1877
in favor of the Purple and but a
few minutes TO play, Northwestern
found itself but a short distance
away from its own goal on fourth
down.
The ball was passed to Wienecke,
who did the unique In football by
turning about and running for his
own goal line. There he grounded
the leather, giving the Aggies two
intention points. The tilt ended
shortly after, 1879, In Northwest
ern's favor.

New York, Nov. 10 R - Golf
has become a paying Imposition
from the tournament Standpoint,
the National association admitting
that both league tournaments this

the tournaments guarantee the Ma

Besides the admission the clubs

This Season and is Booking Games
With Fast Outfits.

The South church will be rep

season by two teams, both of which
bid fair to be corkers at their re-
spcctivo weights. The first team,
captaincd by last years forward,
Joel Adams, will have all positions
filled by first-striug vcteraSs Of last
year. Al Havlick has moved mp to
the other forward position, "K''
Parker dropping back TO pair off
with Lester Kilduff at guard. Cecil
Cooley will be pivot man for the
fourth consecutive season, with a
, newcomer, Ted Vessels. to alternate
with him If needed. Henry Rock
we'll will probably work in at sew
cral positions, and the team is well
fortified and versatile.
This outfit lost by only two points
in q practice eamc to the Lutherans,
who had Ray Hoist, "Nibby" Ny
borg, "Icky" Anderson, and other
stars in their lineup. The manage
ment is after games with 130-1S5
pound teams but is having difficulty
in securing early season contests.
The lighter second outfit is COM
posed of clifton Bell, Wilton Morey,
and Harold Peck, forwards; JACK
Wlks, center; and Carlton Wash
burn and Howard May, guards. This
team took in the kensington church
seconds by 1910 Tuesday night in
a practice game and would like to
secure games with the Elihu Burritt

FISTIC GAME TO
RESUME TONIGHT
Crescent A. c. Opens With Eight
Amateur Bouts

The listic game comes into its
own here again this evening, when
the Crescent a. c. offers n card of
eight amateur bouts, which are ex-
pected TO bristle with action all the
way. These amateur goes are the
peppiest of affairs all the time as
the winner get prizes. while, the
loser gets nothing but the short
end. So none of the boys is willing
to DO loser.
Leading amateur youngsters of
this city, New Haven, Meriden and
Hartford will show their wares on
this card. which the Crescent A. c.
is confident will even surpass that
of a month ago which means
plenty and sufficient.
President John j. Walsh of the
club and Matchmaker John. p.
Willis are well pleased with the ell
tries received for the show. AS a
matter of fact there were SO many
boys anxious to show their stuff
that the old pruning hook had to
be used.
The bout scheduled as the stellar
go of the evening will bring to-
gether Jimmy Clinch, the local boy
who is riding the waves Of tistdom
high these days, and Bobby Pease
a New Haven colored lad, who Is
rannnrjyoI nf fha Chiffincf
formers in state ranks. These boys
will meet at 1873 pounds. Jimmy
took one New Haven lad--Johnny
Mack - plenty in Hartford Tues
day night and Bobby is coming up
for revenge.
Young Barando, the pride Of
Arch street, who waltzed to a win
at the first show, draws a New
Britain opponent this evening in
Terry Faigin, who has shown for
the past few years in great style
in state amateur circles. Terry
flung his def at Barando at the re-
cent show. So this allNew Britain
bout at 800 pounds will bring out
friends of both boys with the old
welkin.
Stanley MichaIowski, the hefty
local lad whose work pleased the
fans recently takes on a tough
customer in Steve Gullo of Meri-
den. Both are Of the smuggling type
and the mitts will fly in this go.
Walter Burrell of Kensington, a
youngster. who tips the beam at
155 pounds, will make his local de-
but taking on Charley Rocco Of
New Haven. AS these boys are
heavier than the usual run of anna
tour boxers, the fans will get a line
on the heavier diversion. Burrell
appeared at several Philadelphia
shows and made u hit.
| The fans of Hartford, Meriden
and New Haven claim they have
the best in the amateur line. So
the other bouts on the card will
either prove or disprove their
claims. Ray Hall of Hartford, who
made a great impression here at
OF New Haven in one at 1873
pounds. Eddie Camp, the little 1O2
pound gun of action Of Hartford
will collide with Pete Feroni Of
New Haven in another. Other
bouts call for Harry Meyers of
Hartford to mingle with Tony Dor
sey of Meridep at 118 pounds; Joe
Camp of Hartford and Bobby Ric-
clio of New Haven at 126 pounds.
Each of the bouts goes three
rounds for judges decision. If
the judges fail to agree fourth Is
ordered. A disagreement then puts
it up to the referee. So there are
decisions in every go. John F.
Willis will be the third man in the
ring and William J. Farley and
Frank Moran will be the judges.
