Smaller Colleges Provide
Much keener Competition
Than Formerly
(ISy Bjlly Evanx.)

The days Of major football team
going through an entire season with
out being scored on are over.
Improved play on the part Of tn,
smaller colleges has made for kecnel
competition. There are few soft spot.

The forward pass and the develop.

have opened two new avenues 0i
scoring for the lesser college teams
Ten years back II was the cxccp-
tion for big college eleven to be
scored on. Now il is a decided cx-
ccption for one to complete its schcd-
ulc without having one or more OPP
pOncnts score.
The tremendous popularity that
football has enjoyed during the past
five years can be directly traced to
the keen competition that features
practically every game.
pcrusal of the figures in the
games played to date will best illus

On Eastern Fields.
Take the east for instance:
Harvard was beaten in it's first
game Of the saeson by the almost un-
known college of Geneva, coached by
the fam Gus .'Bo" McMillin. Holy Cross
beat the Crimson in its second game,
1914
Princeton in its first three games
was scored on by Amherst. could get

Lee and was beaten 27-l3 by the
Navy.
Yale. while upsetting the dope a

Cornell was twice scored on by
Michigan State. while Johns Hopkins
crossed the Pennsylvania goal line.
In the big Ten"
In Big Ten circles Wisconsin
alone kept it's goal line uncrossed in
the first three games of the year
Incidentally, Wisconsin also figured
in one of the unusual sort of games,
Il scorccless tie with Purdue.
From three points to 40 have been
scored on the nine other members of
the Big Ten in the same number Of

three. field goal by Carleton, while
Minnesota is high.

beaten. Little st. Mary's College and
the Oregon Aggics both overwhelmed
the Bears.
. Good Kicker Important.
A good place kicker or drop kicker
is now most important factor on
every football team.
AS matter of fact, great many
coaches have gone so far as to develop
specialists in the kicking line.
Very often these players have no
particular qualities other than their
ability to boot tho ball across the
bar either from placement or a drop
kick.
They play u part very much like
the substitute batsman in baseball,
their big chance usually coming in
the old pinch.
Getting within striking distance Of
the opposition's goal and unable to
make any Roadway with a running or
forward pass attack, the coach invar-
iably falls back on his kicking spc-

Medford. Ore, Oct Business men,
whose once week struggles on the
golf course often bring about dour

sought lower score. can take heart
from page of the colorfu links
story of II. Chandler Egan, Medford
pear grower.
Despite his IS years. Egan sailed

/ Raltusrol the difficult course where
George Won Elm of Los Angeles con
i qucred Bobby Jones this year for the
identical title. In the following year
| 1905 Egan again strokcd his way to
the highest pinnacle amateur golf
/ dom offers, while in 1909 he was a
rnnner-up for the crown.
After that year, the Orcgonian con
cludcd operating il 17Oacrc ranch and
engaging in outstanding competitive
golf were enterprises that did not
mix to advantage So five years
passed in which he played no cham

polished up his clubs and proceeded
!, to annex the Pacific Northwest title.
Every so often he drops his work long
enough to disprove the old adage.
"Youth must be served"
His Game Better At 81
Egan believes that his own game
is better today than it was ut 81 That
| is because he learned il in the old
school where three clubs-clcek, Md
iron and mashie- furnished most Of
the shots. And at the samcs time, he
! is equally certain that the business

Where Youth \ Handicap
To accomplish what seems TO many
hopeless task, Egan has this for
mula: Use your head
After declaring that is the rule for
successful golf he went on to say:
THE youngsters who compete in
championships almost invariably use
hook shot. No question but what
that will get them maximum distance.
But it is treacherous II Is not halt

ROYAL DE LUKE
TOURS COSTLY
TO RAILROADS
Swedish Royalty Paid For
Special Car-Queen Marie
Travels For 81

Washington, Dec. 3O.-LP)-Supply-
ing OF special trains and cars to dis
tinguished foreign visitors who wish
to see this country in de luxe style has
become an interesting phase of Amer.
lean railroading.
Through the courtesy Of the rail
roads. in many cases, members Of roy
al families and other notables have
been able to tour the United States
and Canada in luxurious equipment at
nominal cost to themselves. The
transcontinental jaunt of Queen
Marie Of Rumania and the earlier
visit of President Machado of Cuba
are outstanding instances when the
railroads themselves played host and
footed most of the transportation
bills.
Swedish Visitors Paid
The Crown Prince and Princess Of
Sweden paid for the special car which.
attached to regular trains, took them
across the country on their recent
visit, but the Prince Of Wales and
Marshal Foch Of France rode in spe-
cial trains that cost them next to
nothing.
The most consistent user Of special
trains is President Coolidge, but he
buys his own ticket out Of a special
appropriation provided for the pur-
pose. The government at times EN-
ploys special equipment with which to
transport distinguished visitors from
New York to Washington and return
when they pay official calls to the
national capital.
More than the, desire Of the rail-
roads to be courteous hosts to visit
ing sightSeers is necessary in supply
ing trains at nominal cost to the
guests. Under the law only railroad
employees are allowed free transport
tation and in order to carry Queen
Marie, for example, at q one dollar
fare, q special tariff had to be filed
with the Int rstake Commerce Com
mission and that body's approval re-
ceivcd.
1899 Miles For 81
In Marie's case, she paid out Of her
own pocketb0ok one dollar for her
self, her two children and each men,
Der OF her immediate party to each
Of the several railroads over which
she Travelled on her 10000 mile tour.
Railroad fares alone, at winter tour
int rates would have t0talled an.
proximately $4,000 for the nearly So
persons aboard the Royal Rumanian.
Another huge expense borne by the
roads was that incident to stocking
diners and private kitchens aboard
the several special cars making up
the royel train. Special illustrated
booklets describing the country
through which the queen passed and
elaborate menu cards also were paid
for by the railroads.
Railroad men agreed that>the Royal
Rumanian was the most luxurious
equipment ever assembled, compris-
ing six special cars, all Of them the
property Of railroad presidents, and
equipped with the most modern con-
veniences.
