WHAT AIS BROWN?

What's the matter with Brown? NO
doubt Coach Tuss McLaughry, the mi
racle man of 1926, would like to know.
Last year, at this Gime, ISroWn's
eleven iron men and Coach Tuss Nc
Laughry we're hogging the sport splot-
light and deservedly SO.
This year, much the same team has
lost five straight games, being defeated
by Penn, Yale, Lebanon Valley, Temple
and Dartmouth.
The trio OF defeats by Yale, Penn
and Dartmouth could be swallowed but
the trimmings handed Brown by the
comparatively unknown Temple and
l lebanon Valley elevenS are not sit
ting very well with the alumni and
under graduates.
Apparently there is something seri-
ously wrong at Brown. 1t doesn't seem
possible that much the same team
could show such decided reversal of
form within year.
AT the close of the present sea-
son, it isn't unreasonable to expect
that the Brown situation will be
thoroughly aired and possibly
logical explanation offered for the
unexpected slump.

of one of the Big Ten teams who has
been doing some grid missionary work
in the east He informs me that the
gossip in that section is that all is
not harmony in the ranks OF the
Brown eleven.
Fhe report is that several members
of the team came to blows in tho club
house at the conclusion of the game
with Lebanon Valley, which was lost
1912, in one of the biggest upsets of
the year.
Football isn't parlor game and it
isn't at all unusual for players to nurse
beautiful black eyes; Several Brown
players were so ornamented after the
Lebanon game which possibly started
the rumor that has swept the east.

school. Examinations will be held for
the second time and grade cards
sent out. Notices we're sent out to
some of the parents calling attention
to unsatisfactory work on the part
of the students. These notices are
sent for the purpose of securing
cooperation with the parents. Visits
or telephone inquiries will be well
coined by the teachers and principal
Those who wish to interview the
teachers should telephone for ap-

Grand theater Wednesday, November

any better than those given in the
past but will be just as good. This
fact iiaSureS three hours of high
class entertainment. The music is
excellent and the chorus numbers
surpaSs anything that has been at

this time This show should be
literally patronized by the people of
Douglas, not only because they will
see good show for a moderate price,
but also because the money obtained
is used to pay the expenses of the
high school glee clubs and orchestra
to the southern Arizona music con-
test.
The last home game of the football
season will be played here Saturday,
November 19, with NogaleS. This
should prove to be good game.
Douglas won from Nogales earlier in
the season by score of 1870.
Nogales has a light, but fast and
scrappy team and will make any
high school aggregation fight TO win.

WARD TO FILL
COLLINS PLACE
ON WHITE SOX

NEW YORK, Jan. 13 P9.-The New
York Yankees jumped into the trad.
ing spotlight today, announcing com
pletion of the deal by which Aaron
Ward, veteran second baseman, goes
to the Chicago White Sox for two
Observation-Disclosures catcher, and
Ray Morehart, infielder According
to Ed Barrow, secretary of the Yam
KEGS, it was a straight trade with
no cash involved.
Ward has been with the Yam.
KEGS since 1917, being purchased
from the Charleston, S. c., club Of
the sally" league for reported
price of $500. He was regular cog
in the Yankee machine until last
season, when he was replaced by
Tony Lazzeri. He is expected to
play regularly for the Sox next
season, occupying the post made va
cant by the departure of Eddie Col
Rms.
Manager Miller Huggins expects to
carry both Grapowski and Morehart
all next season, but both appear
slated for utility roles. Grabowski,
whose home is in Schenectady, N. Y,
was obtained by the White Sox from
Minneapolis IN 1924. He batted ,262
TN 4S games last year. Moreharr,
who lives in Terrell, Texas, starred
in the Western league in 1926 and
subbed for Eddie Collins in 4S games
last year besides playing 25 more
at short and third. He hit .S1S. Both
Yankee newcomers are 25 years ola.
Ward is 20. The Yankees also an
nounced the release on option to st.
Paul of Shortstop Durocher who was

Cutting the Melon


The intent of the magnates in
offering second, third and fourth
place moneys out Of the world series
receipts was to stimulate all the
players to put forth their very best
efforts until the close of the season.
Some of the players appear to have
gone even further in their efforts TO
land these prizes.
In order to keep the players on
their toes until the final game of the
season, this money now given to the
clubs finishing second, third and
fourth in each major league could
be distributed into individual and
team prizes for superior play in
various departments of the game.
There could be batting prizes, as
we'll as many others for fielding,
baserunning, pitching, driving in the
most runs and so on down the line
AS a special reward there could be
n prize for the most valuable player
on each team.
While the suggestion may appd1l
a trifle intricate on the surface, IL
would be an easy matter to worF
out the details.
Individual and team prizes thus
distributed would make lit possible
for players on second division clubs
who were stars, to cut in on the
world series receipts and receive a
suitable monetary reward.

Abolish world Series.

I certainly do not favor such dras-
tic action The world series is one
Of sports greatest spectacles;f it is
the cruX Of the baseball season, fer
which the public and players
stnXiously wait.
1 am inclined to think that gem
eral interest in baseball would suffer
with no world series as the fall
dessert of the diamond pastime.
If the magnates would escape some
of the petty fixing that has been
either real or alleged, all they need
DO is go back to the old system of
dividing the receipts among the two
pennant winners only. 1t need be
no more than under the present sys-
tenn.
Do away with the second, third
and fourth place moneys that appear
tc have caused some of the players
in their greed for money to resort
to tactics that would hardly be con-
strued as good sportsmanship.

Greed for Money

Money is the root of all evil. Some
smart guy concocted that one many
years ago, even long before there
were any counterfeiters.
Along those lines, it might be
argued, that the immense world
series receipts have been responsi-
Bile for many of the evils that have
arisen in baseball.
No doubt the assorted scandals
that are being aired in baseball at
the present time, many of them SO
old that they have. whiskers as long
as old Rip Van Winkle after hitting
the hay for 40 years. will result in
the stereotyped cry of: 84

thereby eliminate the evil.
