THE SPORTLICHT
By GRANTLAND RICE

When 1t made mistake or a slip that
error usually proved fatal. But on the
day 1t played Notre Dame it would have
been a match for any team in foot ball
East or West.
Pittsburgh and Notre Dame probably
had the best set of guards. Notre
Dame had Cannon and Law. Pitts
6urgh had Montgomery and Dimoleo.
No other team could match these
guards and there is almost nothing to
choose between them.
Another High Average.
WHEN it comes to a matter of high
w averages there is Zuppke's record
at Illinois In the last three years IL
linois has lost only two games. Any
one who knows the strength of the
western conference. can understand
what this means. It might be stated
here that Illinois has also a Conferences
record that averages q championships
every two and a quarter years for the
last II years.
The Illinois team that wound up its
season against Ohio State was one
of the strongest teams In the country.
The Stanford team that crushed Cali
fornia was another high-class organiza-
ton. SO was the Harvard team that
beat Yale. A lot depended through the
season on just what dates certain teams
met certain rivals. There was a big
difference in the same team from one
week to another, due largely to sched-
ule arrangements. Those teams facing
hard schedules had much heavier
handicaps to overcome.
The Fastest Back.
T H. G. wants to know who the fastest
back of the year was. If any one
can think Of faster back than Jack
Elder of Notre Dame, he will be entitled
to some sort of prize. Elder was fast
enough to set new indoor mark for
20 yards-fast enough to beat Percy
Williams, who in turn was fast enough
to win the 100 and 200 meters at
Amsterdam. Elder is one of the quick
est starters who ever played foot ball
an art that means everything where
he flrst few steps tell q big part of
he story.
Ellis of Yale was another fast
printer. one of the fastest of the lot.
Eagle OF the Army, Mays Of Harvard
and Uansa of Pitt were among the
fastest, but Elder probably could out
step any of them.

Lucille Preble, with spectacular 355

to take two from the Meyer Davis girls
King Pin won the first two, the second
by one-pin margin, 507 to sos, then
the Meyer Davis quint staged q great
rally and ran up $40 total in the final
to score its lone win. Louise Foberti
led the assault with a sharp 1875, Irene
Scott shot 100, May Perry 100, Anna
Burkhalter 102 and Fay MorgenStein o..
1t was tough break for the King Pin

spots of the match besides Prebles set
were Louise Foberti, 312; Irene Scott,
800; May Perry, 305; Pauline Ford, $40,
and Edith Brown, 800.
Margaret Leaman also flashed a
classy bit of maple crashing with Con-
vention Hall against Temple. Mar
garet's counts of 104, 125 and 100 gave
her nifty 338 total. Her big string
gave Convention Hall the odd game.
Peggy Babcock came through with a
splendid 127 in the final clash to run
her set to Sl4. Mary Rogers was much
the best for the losers. Her set was $40,
with counts of 113, los and 101.
John Blick grabbed two more at the
expense Of Lucky Strike. Helena Koh-
Ter Of the losers took high game and
set with 122 and 315. Helen Whitbeck

Championship form displayed by the
Mark Blum and Standard Art bowlers
has made the pennant race a two-team
proposition for the present.
Last week Mark Blum swamped Ouris-
man Chevrolet with SOS as high game.
The individual shooting of Guether with
341 featured.
Standard Art in an effort to stay
with the leaders rang up the high
team scores of the matches, having
game of 571 and 1000 set. Scagnelli's
332 was high when the Italian boys
douched a coat of white wash on the
Bonbrest BARRIERS, who made an early
bid for titular honors.
Bert Sheehy was instrumental in
Queen Pin grabbing the odd game from
the Dark Horses with 1886 set. Web
ster's 325 was high for the losers.
After handing Provost Brothers a
trimming In the first tussle, Lenders
Shoe team dropped the second when its
two stars, Brad Mandley and Willie
Carroll, failed to hit the 100 mark.
Brad shot an IS, his lowest string of
the season. The last saw the Shoe
team gathering $50 for an easy win.
Phalen's Garage triumphed in all three
over Ristigs. Taking three games
