tralia in the winter, but will
probably go to England to defend
the open title which he won last
spring and, besides, Tommy Ar

go over.
The amateur delegation will de-

r. Johnston (the new United
States champion), and seven
others. I hesitate to name any
except the three I have set down,
but they will be good golfers, and.
while all Of the amateurs will
probably not remain for the open,
Jones and Won Elm may do so.
There win be no more

FOOTBALL PAYS

STATE COLLEGE, Pa, Dec. 4.
Earning a net surplus of $45,-
COS. go, football paid the way of
eleven other varsity sports during
the fiscal year 1928-1929 at Penn
State College, the newly published
report Of the athletic association
for that year reveals.
All other sports showed deficits
for the year, ranging in amount
from a little more than $500 for
the rifle team to more than
$4,000 for track. The net sur
plus for football of $45, 905 .66
compares with $28, 996.15 for the
previous season.
Baseball, basketball. and
wrestling were the next heav-
lest losers financially.
Boxing, while showing a deficit
Of approximately $170O, came
nearer breaking even than IN
forrpay years, partly on account
Of the Eastern intercollegiate
Associations tournament being
held at State College last March.
The entire report shows IA
vorable condition in Penn State
athletic finances, one Of the most
encouraging items being the re-
duction of the accumulated gen.
eral deficit from more than $685.
900 to less than $4,000.
The appearance Of the U. S.
Naval Academy boxing team for
q dual meet in the State College
ring, March /, marks one OF the
most attractive schedules ever
arranged for the Penn State Col
lege team. The schedule, which
has been approved by the board
of control Of athletics, calls for
five other duel meets and the ep'
pearance of the Lions in the In
tercollegiate championships.

II Carlmark or Hutchinson had
caught that pass, Elder would
have been branded as q foolish
youth for letting a receiver get
between him and the goal line.
When Longnecker threw his
pass in the Yale-Dartmouth game
that landed in the arms Of HOot
Ellis and was converted into a
touchdown for Yale, the condi-
tions were altogether different.
In that game in the Yale Bowl,
Dartmouth was leading In the
waning moments Of the game. It
was in mid-field. Longnecker
half stumbled in receiving the
ball and was almost on his knees
when he passed the ball. It
seemed to me that Longnecker'S
chief objective in life was getting
rid of that ball.
The eagle pass" was entirely
different in every aspect. Army
was trying to score against the
irish. It was third down, and
two rushes had failed to bulge
the Irish line. Army then went
overhead, and eagle did all he
could to make the play. But with
the distance across the field, the
frozen condition Of the ground,
and all other elements combined,
eagle could not have gotten back
to the threatened zone without
mechanical aid.
AS I look back at the game now,
the play that hurt Army'S chances
was the very first pass thrown
after Army had recovered quick
kick. After two plays eagle passed
down the left field side OF the
Rridiron and it seemed to me that
Hutchinson, who cut straight
down, should have caught the
ban. He was free and loose, but
didn't get near the ball. That
play saved the bacon for Notre
Dame.
The game is over, but the
controversy fingers on. 1t
will make good telling around
the cracking logs Of the win.
ter fires.
The writer may stand alone, but
7 insist that eagle play was not
''poorly aimed" nor was in COM
parable with Longnecker'S blum
der in any sense.
Ford Prick points out quite cor
rectly that Notre Dame had q fine
defense for Army'S forward pass
tng game. It was not an accident
n0r Q chance that led to the inter
@aption Of the fatal toss. It was

5 FIRMS CONTROL
HALF U.S.. POWER

New York-(FP)-Over half the
electric power in the United States
is in the hands of five holding
groups, asserts a report on power
concentration published by the
Committee on Coal and Power.
These firms are: Electric Bond &
Share, 1870 control; United Corp.
of Delaware, the new Morgan Co.,
121a%; insult, 1917 %; North Am
erican, 10, Eastern States Power,
61a%o.
The committee states that 500
of the industry is in the control
of Is groups, many of which are
interconnected financially. Gradua
vertical classification of utilities
is a dominant aspect of the indus
try now, the report contends. ThrU
the use of the holding company de-
vice, capitalists are able to con
troll huge networks of utilities. The
Standard Gas & Electric, for ex
ample, on an investment of $1,000,
600 has the voting control over /;
total investment of $370,00O,000.
