Frosh and Sophs Tie
Six to Six in Grid
Game On Saturday

In closely matched game and be-
fore a good sized crowd Saturday, the
sophomores and the freshmen played
a 6 to tie. The game was played at
the Tenth street BALI park. Nogri
starred for the sophomores, while
Flores and Pine starred for the fresh
men.
The frosh won the toss up and re-
ceived. In smashing off-tackle plays
and wide end runs they carried the
ball to the sophomore's 30-yard line.
The sophomores frightened and held
their opponents for four downs. The
sophomores took the ball around the
right end for five yards.
On the next play Young fumbled
and Moon, the flashing tackle for

to ride into Des Moines. Hooking
on with the Western league club, his
playing attracted such attention that
in two months President Turner, of
Portland, paid $4,000 for him. The
country lad played six months with
the Pacific Coast league team during
the past season, to finish with a
batting average of .329. Organized
baseball has known him for only
eight months, but Scout Long regards
his as close to a finished product.

HAGEN RETAINS PROFESSIONAL
GOLF CROWN IN HARD BATTLE

CEDAR CREST COUNTRY CLUB
DALLAS, Nov 5 0P-Walter Hagen
veteran of many classic struggles OF
the links, came from behind today
to shake off the challenge of a
younger opponent and successfully
defend his title of champion OF the
Professional Golfers association.
Joe Turnesa, handsome 25 year old
pro from Elmsford, N Y, played q
versatile game and led the old master
most of the way, but cracked for
a moment in the last six holes and
lost the match, one down on the
Both green.
In winning the title Hagen added
the professional crown to his winter
wardrobe of fancy headgear for the
fourth consecutive year and for the
fifth time in his career. Ten P. G.. A..
tournaments have ben held and
Hagen has won half of them, in
addition to ching runner-up in 1916
He first won the coveted champion
ship in 1921, after which Gene Sara
zen, of New York, ruled for two
years, but Hagen came back in 1924
and has occupied the throne since
that time.
The champions game was frequent
ly ragged during the day but his
face betrayed no emotion at all as
hole after hole wore away with
Turnesa still in the lead and playing
consistently The crucial break fin
ally came at the 31st green. Hagen
had won the 29th to square the match
when TurneSa's ball hung on the
Nf 4Iao ~ RI
take a four. Turnesa'S irons, which
had been steady most of the day,
wavered for a moment at the 31st
His second missed the green and bis
third was 25 feet over the pin. Hagen
got down an easy four, but Turnesa
took a six and was one down for
the first time since the sixth hole
The two then halved every remaining
hole. Turnesa did not break under
the strain and blow up, but Hagen
gave him no opportunity 20 recoup.
A putt that would have halved the
match on the final gren hung on the
lip when Turnesa failed to give it
the extra fraction of an once it
needed to sink
Turnesa apparently was in for a
terrible beating as the match got
under way He dropped an approach
in a trap at the first green and
overshot the third to GO two down
That was the biggest lead Hagen
ever obtained, however, as Turnesa
took the sixth, seventh and eighth
to go one up. Hagen was two down
when the half way mark was reached
and turned into the last nine still
one down. Each had medal score
of 148 for the SO holes
TurneSa took his defeat grac1ously,
wringing Hagen'S hand over the 36th
cup, where his putt for a win was
still hanging on the lip. The two
then walked to the locker room
shoulder to shoulder, where Hagen
was handed a check for his capital
prize of $1,000 and Turnesa a check
for the runner-up position which
amounted to 5000.
At the door of the locker room,
E. R. Brown, president of the Dallas
Chamber of Commerce, handed Hagen
a large loving cup, one of the many
side prizes he will receive. Hagen,
in thanking Brown for the cup, made
little speech in which ne compli-
merlted Turnesa high, concluding:
"He showed that he is player
of rare metal and hope that if
ever do have to relinqulsn my title,
Turnesa will be the man that receives
my CONGRATULATIONS"

PROSECUTOR IS
PROBING FIGHT
SCANDAL IN |. A.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. lF9-Removal
from office of members of the Cali
fornia athletic commission for alleged
failure to protect the interests of fight
fans who paid more than $4,000, but
failed to see Joe Dundee defend his
welterweight crowd against Ace Hud-
kins last Thursday night, may be ask
ed by the city prosecutor investigating
the boxing scandal.
Turning toward the commission
after causing the arrests of the cham
pion, his manager Max Waxman and
Promoter Dick Donald, the prosecutor
announced he had ordered the three
commissioners to appear at his office
next Monday and explain what they
knew of the fight scandal.
If they could not satisfactorily an
swer three questions he would put to
them, the prosecutor, DR.. E. j. Lickley,
said, he would make them parties to
the gigantic fight fraud" and ask
Governor G. G. Young to remove them
from office
Dundee and Waxman succeeded in
delaying their please to charges of
false advertising until Monday morn
ing, but Donald pleaded not guilty and
his trial was set for next Monday.
Bail for both Dundee and WaNman
was increased to $1,000 in view of the
delayed pleadings.
Lickley said he would the commits
sioners, Seth w. P. Strelinger of Holly
wood; Louis Almgren of San Diego,
chairman, and Frank Traung of San
Francisco the following questions:
l. Did the commission have any
knowledge of the fact that WaXnlan
had secret contract with Promoter
Dick Donald calling for $4,000
guarantee to be paid in advance?
2. Did the commission have knowl-
edge that any part of this advance
guarantee had been paid to Waxman
prior to the evening of the fight. And
if so, what did they have to say about
it in face of their own law that no
money is to be paid fighters in ad-
vance?
8. Why did not thel commission,
which was present on the evening of
the fight and aware of the fact that
no fight was going to take place, at
once order the refund of money to the
1920 seat purchasers who were given
no stubs to show for the money paid?

PUBLICITY CAN DAMAGE

PUBLICITY CAN DAMAGE
Over-touting has ruined many a
promising big Lacquer. 1t has con-
siderably slowed up others because of
the responsibility they felt due to
the many flattering advance notices.
More recently, the press agenting
of some promising football players,
since publicity has become a very
necessary feature of the college sport,
has played havoc with the hopes of
many coaches.
There is no more striking example
of r-touting, than that of Elmer
Marek, Ohio State halfback. A great
prospect as a freshman, he has failed
to come even close to expectations.
Marek has been only a fair
player, yet as freshman he gave
promise of rivalIing Red Grange.
WAS HIGH SCHOOL STAR
I recall we'll the first time I saw
Marek in action. 1t was a game at
Toledo, against one of the leading
prep school teams of that city. Marek
was a member of the Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, high school eleven.
Literally, he ran wild that day.
giving one of the most remarkable
exhibitions of ground gaining ability
I've ever seen high school athlete
turn in.
Marek looked a second Red Grange
and in certain phases of play seemed
to have greater possibilities.
At the time, I was informed that
Marek, in his work that day, was
simply maintaining his standard.
Knowing he would be much
sought after athlete, spent many
moment wondering what college
he would enter.
REMARKABLE PROMISE
Some months later I learned that
Marek had decided on Ohio State.
With star like him to build around,
felt that that school was 'in" for
several big years. Likewise Marek.
One afternoon four years ago, I
visited the Ohio State stadium to
watch Coach Wilce's athletes prepare
for the game with Illinois
Scrimmage was being INDUCED in
as walked on the gridiron. On the
first play I was startled by seeing a
youngster dash through the Ohio
State varsity team for 60-yard run.
That player was Elmer Marek.
One of the assistants told me
that happening was almost a
daily occurrence with Marek.
SCRIBES OVERDO PRAISE
It was only natural of Coach John
Wilce to expect great things of Marek
as a sophomore. Unfortunately for
Coach WiIce,. Ohio State and him
self, Marek failed to deliver as ex-
pected and predicted.
Naturally, Marek was the subject of
much newspaper comment in which
the scribes painted beautiful word
pictures of what Marek would do, but
seldom did any of them materialize.
I have heard it said that these
many complimentary notices did not
tend to shrink the size of Marek's
hat. If so, that was doubly unfortu-
nate.
Now, as the Ohio State team failed
this year against Northwestern and
Michigan, as did Marek, we have the
word of Coach Wilce that his entire
team has been over -touted. Possibly
so.
Publicity is a fine thing if it
isn't overdOne. When it is, the
reaction is usually very costly.
