The field goal Jake Slagle scored for Princeton against Harvard on fifty down" is explained In two ways by prominent officials. One view is that lengthy time out caused the players to lose track of the down. Other officials believe that a double penalty ,unnoticed at the time. might have resulted In no play and no loss of down to Princeton.

YANKEES FORTIFIED
WITH GOOD RESERVES

A ball club is said to be no stronger
than its reserve strength. and the
New York Yankees are we'll fortified
in any emergency. There great reserve
strength lies in the infield, where
Manager sHuggins has Mike Gazella,
Aaron Ward and Spencer Adams all
primed The Yanks have two sub
stitute outfielders, one of whom. Ben
PaSchal. recently has been put in the
lineup to face left-hand pitching. The
other is Carlyle. a heavy hitter. but
an Indifferent fielder.
On the shoulders of Mike GaZella,
the old Lafayette foot ball star, will
fall the burden Of filing in as an in
field substitute in case Of accident or
should any of the regulars be with
drawn for another batter during a
game. Gazella for several weeks sub

year when the Yank third sacker Suf-
fered from injuries. Gazella showed
that he was equally at home'at short
stop when Mark koenig showed un-
miStakable Signs of nerves by boot
ing easy chances in tight games. Ga
zella is a light hitter, averaging un-
der the $50 mark, but does his best
work In pincheS.
Aaron Ward, for years the club s
second baseman and who went to the
New YorkS as a third baSeman, has
been seen little in the intield this year:
He has been called to hit for left-hand
pitchers against the SouthpaW hurl-
ing.
Spencer Adams came to the 1anks
from Washington. where he played as
a substitute last year at second base
for Bucky Harris. Adams saw rev
innings of world series play against
the Pittsburgh Nationals. He has been
called upon as a pinch hitter and SUB
stitute runner this year. but has done
little work in the infield.
The New York outfield regulars are
Ruth. Meusel and Combs, but within
the last six weeks of the seasons play
Uucgius has withdrawn Combs when
the opposition put in left-hander
and stationed Paschal in center field:
This weakens the defense. but PaSchat
dotes on left hand pitching, which on
sets his lesser fielding ability. Pas-
chal is a 800 hitter. fine throWer
and a fast man on the bases.
Carlyle was purchased this season
from the Boston Red Sox for use as
a substitute batter against right-hand
hurting. His batting average is close
to the 800 mark. Carlyle is an un-
certain fielder.
The Yanks are we'll fortified behind
the bat with Collins and SEVERED, who
was obtained from Washington on

Burning Tree Club and former hol
Voigt and Tuckerman played to-
gether over the final 36 holes. match
ing shot for shot in a spectacular duel
which found the title holder picking
up only one shot on the Burning Tree
player for the route.
Voigt's 72-hole score of SOC is one
shot above the record for the local
championship set by Marshall Whit
latch at Chevy Chase in 1921. when
Whitlatch had four rounds in an ag-
gregate of 305. Eoigt's scores were
rs. 70, IS and "a Tuckerman's rounds
were II. 80, II and 76.
Frank K. Roesch of the Washing
ton Golf and Country Club and Harry
G. Pitt of the Manor Club finished in
a tie for third place with 36-hole totals
Of 1924. The tie will be played off at
1S-holes medal play at the Burning
Tree Club tomorrow afternoon.
Five shots in front of Tuckerman
as the result of fine 154 shot on the
first day in a drizzling rain, Voigt
added. two.stroke lead over the first
nine yesterday. only to lose three
shots on the last nine to finish the
third 1S-hole round with II total to
1S for Tuckerman. With a lead of
four shots Voigt went out in the
brand of golf. And again over the
first nine he picked up'two shots on
Tuckerman. scoring 81 to 80 for the
Burning Tree player. They both came
back in 81, giving Noigt a "a for
his final round. against 76 for Tucker
man.
Noigt who had had trouble in the
morning with his wooden club second
shots. discarded the long wooden
clubs in the afternoon, and played
irons through the fairway. Tucker
man explained his inability to secure
par on several Of the par i holes by
lack of distance from the tee and
through the green. Noigt's victory
gave him the distinction of being the
first player ever to repeat in the Dis
trict amateur classic.

Schedule FavOrs Yanks.
That brings us up to pitchers and
/ think the superior world series eX-
perience of Huggins' veterans in that
department will turn the tide into his
favor The schedule also is in Hug
gins favor Should the series run
six games it will be stretched over
eight days. That means that Huggins
can afford to give Herb PennOck. star
of his staff. four days between games
and perhaps use him in between as "a
relief man.
Pennock did not fare so well in the
last month Of the season, but he has
pitched only once in the last two
weeks and has had Il deserved and
needed rest. He pitched brilliantly
against the Giants three years ago
and, though Herb is now a32. he is
even a better pitcher today than he
was in 1928. He is one OF the coolest
players | ever saw on the ball field. Il
pitcher who can arise to big occa siOns,
and l look for him to bring in two
victories.
The burly Shocker is going into this
series with the enthusiasm of a boy.
The thrill Of world series has been
denied him for many wears and now
he is anxious to start against St
Louis. the city in which he played for
many years and where he makes his
home. ShOcker is smart and still can
bear down when occa sion requires.
He has pitched against the Cardinals
In st. Louis city series and thinks he
knows how to pitch to them.
Ruether. Hoyt. Shawkey and Jones
Ruether probably will be Huggins'
third pitching choice and Hoyt his
fourth. While Shawkey and Jones will
be used as relief men.
Hornsby probably will start with
Alexander. use Sherdel against
ShOcker and open in st. Louis with
Flint Rhem. | agree with those who
think little Sherdel will be st. Louis
best pitcher against the Yankees. He
is Il bundle of nerves and has lot
of pitching tricks in his kit. He has
Il style which should go especially
good against Il club which has not
batted against him.
The 39-year-Old Alexander was of
great service to the Cardinals in their
successful fight for the pennant and
l do not underestimate Growers abil-
ity. He has nice easy pitching
motion. which has enabled his arm
TO last after all of these years. |
