The Coral Gables collegians snatch
ed victory from the New York
Giants in professional football
game here this afternoon in the
first fe wminutes of play. The score
was IA to 1S,
Two former Lafayette stars, Char

the Giant killers of the afternoon.
Berry blocked a punt on the five
yard line and on the next play
Elliott went through the line for a
touchdown, tying the score. Berry
kicked goal for the extra point
and won the game
The; Giants were a one-man scor-

LOS ANGELES COLISEUM, Jan.
1G.-Harold "Red" Oranges Chicago
Bears defeated the Los Angeles
Tigers II to Z here today in the
vests first professional football
game. The galloping ghost Of II
linois was probably outshone, how
ever, by the leader of the western
team, George Wilson, University of
washington star.
Joe Steraman, dimunitive, Bear
quarterback, made himself more
feared by the opposing Tigers than
did Grange. sternaman. passed over
the wavering Tiger line, ran about
its ends and accounted for five
points on the score, three on field
goal and two in converting on touch
downs
Grange carried the bali over for
both Bear touchdowns. In the sec
ond of these he played a prominent
part in passing ana hitting the line
for good gains but the first was
largely presented to him by his
team mates.
Wilson, with the exception of Roy
(Bulle) Baker was the only Tiger
who was able to make gains
against the Bears Once the Wash
ington star smashed his way thru
three-fourths Of the field only to
tumble on the Bear four yard line.
In the closing minutes of the game
he passed and smashed the way

way hate to decide games 5y forfeit
ure
If a team realizes there is chance
to save bali game by stalling tac-
tics, thus wiping out runs made in
the first half Of an inning, it never
fails to take advantage of it. At such
times it is remarkable how long it
takes the players to find their favor
ite bat. incidentally the time con-
sumed in reaching the plate is most
eXasperating
If it is raining rather hard at the
time, the player as he swings at the
ball sees to it that his bat escapes
his hold and travels considerable
distance.
Then some player brings it back
/ after carefully wiping it off on his
luniform or towel supplied by the
trainer.
There are scores of other stalIina;

double basketball contest here to-
night when the tucson boys high

Pumas Is to IS and the Tucson girls
won from the Bisbee Amazons 20

one of the fastest ever played here.
Taking the lead in the first half,
the local boys five left the Badgers
trailing 5 to 4 but substitutions
and the superior weight of the
Tucson team proved too much for
the Pumas to overcome.
The Badgerettes of Tucson had

To Win Big Race
In Phoenix Today

representing Douglas is regarded
by many as a likely winner although
he is not entering a very fast ear.
From past performances, Douglas
race enthusiasts would not be sur
prised TO see Carminetti finish be-
hind all three of the contestants
mentioned above.
Despite the naming of favorites,
it is believed that the race today
will be the closest, fastest and most
bitterly fought OF any ever run in
this state Just how many cars will
enter is not known although prob
ably not more than eight at the
most.
Todays race was originally to
have been staged on New Years

.BISBE'E GOLFERS
INVADE DOUGLAS
COURSE TODAY

Douglas Country club golfers to-
day Will clash with the Bisbee team
on the local links in what promises
to be the closest match between the
two outfits this season.
Bisbee leads on the basis of past
matches, having defeated the local
players both here and at home dur
ing the present golfing period and
the mine city bunch are figuring on
another conquest today. Douglas has
strengthened it's team, however, and
it is the belief of the local stars
that today they will be able to
shake off the Bisbee jinx.
Play in the match will continue
throughout the morning and either
a 20 or 24-lnan team is to invade
this city from Bisbee. This after
noon, special matches are planned
between players of the two clubs
with golf balls standing as the
prizes for the winners.
The Douglas team will be picked
this morning from the following

BOXING

i Word from Phoenix last night on
the eve of the big so mile race
there today indicated that James
Randolph of this city in his Doug
las Special is the favorite to lead
the field home and again affirm his
right to be the Arizona champion.
According to the reports from the
capital city, John Carminetti of that
city had been the favorite despite
the fact that Randolph defeated him
easily here on July fourth. This
Phoenix driver has not been active
since he was hurt before the regu-
lar race at Phoenix swung underway
at the time of the State fair.

Peterson will give Randolph the
closest race today, although the

WISE SUGGESTION

Barney Dreyfus, owner of the Pitts
burgh club, who has been responsible
for many good baseball suggestions
offers one.
Mr. Dreyfus urges that all games
be ultimately completed when rain
or darkness makes it impossible to
go the full route
Thus, if a game was stopped in the
third inning with one team leading,
80, the contest when played off would
be resumed at that point, rather than
starting the game anew.
Under the suggestion of Mr.. Drey-
fus there would be no abbreviated
games. All would go the regulation
distance or extra innings if 'neces-
sary.

3:HE $## EHH1 The Disp atch Sport Page
Billy Evans Says

In every sport there are certain
unpleasant features which are practi-
cally impossible t. eliminate.
For years the intentionai pass has
been a bone Of contention in major
league baseball but as yet no one
has Offered a remedy for the evil.
Major league ball clubs pay fancy
prices to certain players because of
their ability to hit. When these
players come to bat in a pinch with
runners on, the pitcher issues an in
territorial pass.
In other words in a pinch the
pitcher refuses to gamble with the
star player He prefers matching his
wits and ability against lesser
light He refuses to let the star
batter do the very thing for which
the club owner is paying him a fancy
salary-hit the ball.
In football this year the gift safety
has gotten itself into much the same
class as the intentional pass. In a
certain game one team made three
safeties in order to retain possession
of the ball and ultimately win the
game, rather than play the game and
take a chance.

ORIGIN OF EsKIMos

It has been reported from Nome that Dr. Alex Hrdlicka, representing the Smithsonian Institute, found valuable data which will probably determine the origin of the Eskimo. From the data he has secured, the Institute will make complete report of the findings. Valu- able specimens were picked up by Dr. Hrdlicka along the Yukon and the seacoast along the Alaska Peninsula and the Arctic Coast from Kotzebue 70 Point Barrow. Valuable evil dence available a few years back was destroyed by storms.

POVERTY THEN AND NOW.

Poverty is a relative condit ion. That is, the poor of today are more richly endowed witk worldly goods than the p0ol of twenty years ago, although the one felt no poorer nor rich er than the other. Many of rhis age who feel poor would be considered of better than mod crate means by their core spending class of two decades oast.
 We recall many a boy of poor family in 1901; with home-cut hair, trousers made over from fathers, patch 1uilt shirt, sans shoes, stock ings and underwear in sum mer; lucky to have darned tockings, baggy underwear md a frayed coat and cap fol winter, and compelled to work lis way into the circus or for lis infrequent ice cream soda. And we remeber that the poor of twenty years ago were
 ontent to get such homely
 are as beef stew, and pota- oes. Parents then boasted ot wearing the same suit or dress or ten years--it was fortunate
 or them their clothes were durable for they could not lave purchased new ones.
 Quite a contrast with the poor of 1921 who occupy the anne social position as that amily of 1905 just described. The new poor have shoes all lround, on occasion they have the raiment to dress both nice ly and comfortably, they have carpets on the floor and good furniture at home and

BOCHOLOFF VOLCANO
 IN ERUPTION

The Bogholoff volcano on Bogholoff Island, a short dis .ance from Dutch Harbor, was exported erupting recently by the master of the Jap- anese steamer Yokohama Ma cu, which passed within eleven miles of the disturbance.
 The coast guard cutter Haida left Dutch Harbor enroute to he island to investigate.
 Bogholoff is one of the new est of Alaskan volcanoes, hay ing come up out of the sea in May 1796. The island on which t is situated is one of three volcanic islands, the second of which appeared in September 1883. The third emerged from the ocean in May 1906, shortly after the San Francisco earthquake.
