|QUAKE RIPS STREET
| IN H|LO, HAWAII
Church MARRIED as seismo.

in 81 Hours.

HILO, Hawaii, September 2s.-An
earthquake rocked the entire city OF
Hilo at 7:3o am. today. One of the
main streets was ripped apart in two
places. The Catholic church which
was moved on its foundations, was
marred by a dozen cracks.
The shock was similar in viciousness
to that which caused 100000 damage
in the Kona district on the western
or opposite side of Hawaii Island 1t
was the first shock felt in Hilo of the
series of quakes that have kept the
populace of the Kona district terror
stricken since Monday night.
Near Kona District.
Hilo is approximately 60 airline miles
from Kona district, which has been
shaken almost continually following the
first shock Monday night caused by
movements of lava within the craters
of the volcanoes Mauna Loa, Kilauea
and Hualalai.
The volcano observatory at Kilauea
reported that so earthquakes IN the
past "a hours were recorded on its
seismograph, in such manner as to in
dictate that two columns of lava were
rising to the surface. General belief
is that the lava will make its appear
ance from the craters Of Hualalai or
Mauna Loa, as predicted by Volcanol-
ogist Thomas A. Jaggar.
Residents Moving Out.
Residents in the country to the north
of Hilo were moving their belongings
across the Wailuku River today In an
attempt to get away from the Pun 90
district where the quakes seemed to be
concentrated. The district is about Is
miles east of Hilo and Is sparsely
settled.
After a lull yesterday, a series OF
shocks began at 10 O'Clock last night.
With increasing intensity they were felt
over the entire island of Hawaii with
the result that residents nerves were
strained almost to the breaking point.
More than 200 shocks have been felt
by the terrorized populace during the

DETROIT, Mich, December IL
Marcel Camp, youthful Detroit cuelst,
suffered his first setback in the world
championship pocket billiard tourna-
ment at the Recreation Building last
night.
His failure to make an easy shot for
the side pocket paved the way for Ono

of 70, the highest in the tournament, IN
the nth inning. but one inning later
Camp went to the front again with a
run of So.
The Camp-Lauri match was a SEN

making and few attempts at safety.

his sensational playing by defeating
Joseph j. Mccain of Jacksonville, Fla,

nings, the fastest game in the tourna-
ment. He scored 40 points in the sec

COAST IS FAVORED
BY GRID CONDITIONS
Frozen Fields Handicap East
in Training for Late Game,
Says Kerr.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
" AMILTON, N. Y, December IL.
The best an Eastern foot pail
team invading the Pacific Coast
can expect is 20 per cent the
worst Of it, according to Andy
Kerr, Colgate coach, who also mas
charge of organizing the East team LOT
the annual charity game with the WesI
at San Francisco.
Kerr. in addition to his wide expert
ence in Eastern foot ball, put in four
years at Stanford University and mas
had opportunity to study the 1ntersec-
tional question from both angles.
Look out there and you'll see the
reason" said Kerr pointing to Whitman
Field, the Colgate gridiron. THAT field
is frozen as hard as a rock and IS as
slippery as mill pond. 1t is the same
in any other section of the. East or
Middle West. You can't hold pracClce
on a field like that. Why, you can't
even walk on it without slipping.
ION the Coast it Is different. They
have fine foot ball weather through
New Year. You can work them as hard
as you want without mourning any in
Jury risk. The difference in the wealth
er conditions and training faculties
amounts to at least 20 per cent adVan-
tage for the Coast team"
The trip across the continent IS no
handicap either way in Kerr's opinion
ut may be boresome in some respects,
but It is also restful." he explained.
"In good weather the Western eleven
is at no disadvantage coming East, but
would be heavily handicapped in rain
or snow or extreme cold" Kerr declares
"They don't have any Of that Novem-
Der weather out there and they'd be
lost if they struck it here. During the
season the Eastern teams would give
much better accounts of themselves"

BOWMAN IS MANAGER
OF CHICAGO STADIUM
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, December 12-Upon the
shoulders of John F. Bowman OF Chi
cago, who gained wide reputation
for putting over big conventions. today
rested the task of changing figures in
the Chicago Stadium Corporation books
from red to blue.
Directors Of the corporation, which
operates the huge 100000 West Side
sports and exposition building selected
Bowman general manager last night.
He fills the position which Patrick
Paddy" Harmon held before he was
ousted by disconnected stockholders and
directors.
While the stadium has been making
some money on boxing shows since 1t
was opened last Spring, 1t has lost con-
siderable because of the failure to land
expositions and conventions. The d.
rectors believe Bowman will be able to
swing that business to the stadium and
his efforts will be largely devoted to
that field. Nate Lewis, matchmaker,
and Sidney StrotZ, secretary and treas
urer, will handle most Of the boxing
show promotion.
Stadium directors today refused to
comment on reports that Harmon, who
conceived and built the stadium, was
recruiting help among stockholders for
a controlling interest in the corporation.
Hartman who claims to own more than
40 per cent of the stock, has 1ndi-
Gated he would fight to regain control,
the presidency and general manager
ship. Sheldon Clark, Chicago sports
man, succeeded him as president.

FOREIGN ATHLETES
BECK0NED BY A.A.U.
Latest Conqueror of Nurmi
Among Those to Show
in Indoor Meets.

BY the Associated Press.
N YEW YORK, December 12.-Some
N of the leading track athletes of
VI Europe, invited by the Amateur
4 Athletic Union as an advance
showing of 1882 Olympic talent,
are expected here this Winter to add
an international glamour to the big in
door events.
Heading the procession is Stanislaw
Piekiwicz of Poland, newest member OF
the Il Beat Nurmi" Club, who was not
among those receiving invitations from
the A. A. u, but who is rated quite
runner. A big-framed middle-d distance
man with plenty of endurance, StanlS-
law took the measure of the old Fin
nish phantom in Stockholm few weeks
ago and, encouraged by his success, re-
solved to visit the United States. He
was due here today.
Italy took so kindly to the A. A. U.
suggestion that when one man was in
vited, three accepted. The bid was eX-
tended only to Hector Tavernari, half
miller, but apparently through miSun-
Outstanding the Italian Athletic Fedora
ton announced that Louis Baccali,
miller, and Louis FacelI, 600-meter run
ner and 4o0-meter hurdler, would make
the trip as well, planning to leave Tor
return at the end of March.
After look at the records, which in
dictate that all three are runners of ex-
ceptional ability, the A. A. U. was in
clined to favor the idea of paying the
expenses of Facelli and Baccali as well
as Tavernari.
OF the five nations invited, England
is the only one so far to refuse. Fin
land has been asked to send its two
young Olympic champions, Larva and
Loukola. The Germans invited are
Buchner, 40O-meter champion of his
homeland; Englehardt, 800-meter cham
pion; Muller, half-miler and miller, and
Storz and Eldracher, sprinterS. From
France, Seraphin Martin, half-mile star;
Ladomegue, 1,500-meter runner, and
Moulines, quarter miller, have been ex-
tended bids. None of these men has
appeared in the United States. 80

THE SPORTLICHT
BY GRANTLAND RICE.

Reginald D. Root of Yale was, as you
probably know, the coach of the Uni
versity of Mexico team this year. The
team developed amazingly. Here was
the most extraordinary triumph OF its
season-it completed 20 out of % for
ward passes in the game, November 20,
with Mississippi College. Is this not
a record in American foot ball?
Another feature, this submit, which
merits mention in any review OF the
foot ball season. Roman, halfback, did
the passing. LAnda, Elorduy and Mi
randa received the passes. Root, of
course, gave the team the plays. A
Latin professor at Yale, I understand,
evolved the pass formation that sue
ceeded repeatedly against Mississippi.
IT hope you will be able to mention
especially Roman and IIanda. Roman
threw with extraordinary accuracy and
GOODNESS. Landa repeatedly caught the
ball surrounded by Mississippi backfleld-
ers. Landa is 6 feet inches tall. He
plays center on the university basket
ball team. He plays right end on the
foot ball team. He has many of the
qualities of an unusual end. He is the
fiercest tackler on the university eleven.
In the Louisiana game, covering punt,
he dropped Hardness, the Louisiana
quarter "a back far above the average),
for a 3-yard loss-dropped him fiat on
his back with a flying tackle.
Star End.
sbTF you could mention Landa among
L the better ends of the season, you
would not only give fine player his
due, but give foot ball in Mexico a big
impetus.
"Another splendid player on the elev-
en- was Estanol, the center. He out
played his Louisiana opponent; he gave
Capt. Murphee of Mississippi, reputedly
one of the best centers in the South, a
fine battle. Murphee praised him high
ly to me.

Chicago Quints Are
Hounds on Defense
BY SOL METZGER.

The Chicago University basket ball
fives are hounds on defense. Some
teams are that way. They may be
beaten but never by disgraceful
scores. Others stress attack and
probably have more success, just as
do foot ball teams that give offense
the preference.
Defensive principles are much the
same the country over in basket
ball. The main individual idea
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-12-12

and defense is mostly man-to-man
affair these days-is to keep be-
tween the man you are assigned to
cover and his basket. AS long as
you are in front of him 1t stands to
reason he's not going to score.
To do this to perfection the deIen-
sive player must at all times have
perfect balance. Note his stance to
secure it. He's ready and able at
all times to break to either side or
forward or to the rear. Note, too,
the spread of his arms. That's the
theory of defense. The practice
consists of keeping one eye on your
man and the other on the ball; also
in being able to maintain balance
when moving at top speed.

defense.

On the Mexican Gridiron.

Ut may interest a number of the few
million foot ball fans now blocking
traf1c in the United States that
Il foot ball got away to a running
start--also to kicking and passing
start-in the land south of the Rio
Grande
The team from the University of
Mexico made amazing progress in
short time, and there is every indication
this progress will be increased next Fall
with the foundation already laid. The
following comment from an observer in
Mexico City Is worth recording:
This year, as you know, foot ball
crossed the Rio Grande. International
intercollegiate foot ball got under way.
There were two games with college
teams from the United States-the first
with Louisiana College, october 5, and
the second with Mississippi College, No
vember 20. The scores of these two
games tell little. The chief result was
that these international games eStab-
liShed a significant contact between
American and Mexican univerSitieS-all
the more significant because it was
based on land in) foot ball. Here you
have such men as President Emilio
Portes Gil, DR.. Cottingham, president of
Louisiana College, and DR.. Provine,
president of Mississippi College, agree
ing that these games were probably
contributing more profoundly to inter
national amity than any other agencies
working to that end. The Importance
of international intercollegiate foot ball
games may be taken for granted. Is
not this aspect of such contests worth
mentioning in any review Of the season?
