FOOT BALL SCOUTING
APROBLEM IN SOUTH
University. Ala, August 81.

University. Ala, August 81.
Editor The Star:
Dear Sir: Your articles on Foot
Ball Finance" are valuable.
In the South scouting constitutes
the chief foot ball problem. Doubt
less "No Mans Land" i'm the f1nan-
ciaI athletic reports exists in a few
institutions, but it Is by no means
a general characteristic. So far as
i know, the South has yet to en-
counter the mysterious rats"
"Uhlans" and widows" I confess
that the terms are new TO me.
/ agree with the author i'm his
main contention-that there should
be nothing hidden. I incline to the
view that so far as the South Is
concerned the situation Is far bet
ter than he describes ii. Certainly
on the financial side the era of
costly stadia and great budgets has
not yet arrived.
Our graduate managers are rare
ly paid salary. We certainly, i'm
the South. know nothing of the
huge salaries TO which reference Is
made i'm these articles.
I share the authors optimistic
view that the thing will work itself
out. 1 agree with him that frank
discussion is desirable ] wish he
might have seen his way clear to
vOuch for his articles by disclosing
his own identity.
Sincerely yours,
GEORGE III. DENNY.
President University of Alabama.

GIBSON, CUB PILOT,
VERY EXPERIENCED

By the Associated Press.
T, CHICAGO, September 4-George C.
Gibson. new pilot of the Chicago Ma
tionals, brings to the almost PROSTATE
Cubs a record as one of the most bril-
liant catchers of the National
League, as we'll as three years ex-
perience as leader of the Pittsburgh
Pirates.
The successor OF Walter Rabbi"
Maranville, who took the helm yes
terday when the Rabbit" decided TO
quit as leader, holds the National
League record for several feats in
backstopping.
He caught $50 games in one season
as a member of the Pirates; he caught
140 consecutive games, another mark;
he caught more than 100 games in
each of six years, and he caught 1.195
games all told in the senior circuit, a
record which stood until Ivy Wingo
of Cincinnati broke it recently.
Gibson took the place of Oscar
Dugey as coach of the Cubs last Win
ter. His tenure of office as manager
likely will not extend beyond the pres
ent season.
Current reports give Joe Mccarthy,
manager of the Louisville American
Association Club, consideration as the
club leader next year.

Margaret Goss, in the New York

discussed question of appropriate golf
and tennis trophies.
She is of the opinion that the well
known Greek amphora" (which is
the snappy name for a mug, to use
Miss Goss' explanation represents the
ideal trophy for one who is not apt to
collect more than a dozen or so-but
for the real go-getters. like Helen
Wills, she opines that the inevitable
amphora must get bit monotonous
after the first couple hundred have
been accepted with a modest "I-really.
don 't-deserve-it' smile.
Miss Goss also suggests that a top
notcher's collection of cups are apt tc
produce a rather cramped feeling in
the home after all the available cabi
net space and shelves have been util
lied and the overflow begins to clutter
up the boudoir, parlor and even, per
haps, the medicine case in the bath.
What is your idea of an appropriate
trophy? Do you prefer a perfectly
beautiful but absolutely useless cur
which will serve always to remind you
of your triumph, or do you favor a
more practical trophy-say a tennis
