TURF GRIDIRON NOW
IS GOAL OF PHELAN
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

It may be that the great hero at the
University of Washington next Fall will
not be any member of the foot bah
squad, but rather some student in the
agricultural school, who through ex-
haustive researches had devised q
prompt and opuient and not too expen-
sive means of making two blades of
grass grow where none grew before.
Up in the far Northwest turf gridirons
are as rare as palm trees in Central
Park, New York. Which is to say there
is none. For one thing because of the
rains grass does not take q good hold
and even when it does the wetneSs
creates conditions which initiate against
good foot ball when it comes to for
ward passing and general ball handling.
SO the scheme has been to build
playing fields out of a combination of
sand and fir tree dust, which does
amazingly WELL rain as it may.

TALL CENTER HELD
UNF AIR ADVANTAGE
Basket Ball Rules Makers
Considering Plans for
Minimizing Pivot.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

n K ANY basket ball coaches are of
M the opinion that the tip-off
has become too important q
factor in the game, and before
another season Is on the boards, a Sc
rious effort to change the rules per-
tanning to the jump at center will be
launched.
The craze for centers measuring
more than Six-Six on the hoof has
made the tip-off the greatest offensive
factor in the sport instead Of merely
the starting point for Scrimmage. A
tall center who can persistently get the
tip, not only can destroy the pass work
of a team, but also makes it well nigh
impossible to build defense around
the baskets.
If all teams could muster q giant
center and even matters, there would
be no complaint. But only q Few
teams are fortunate enough to ind a
Stretch Murphy, and those who play
the game with q middle man Of 6-foot
stature are strictly out Of luck.
Forrest Allen, the veteran coach at
the University OF Kansas, is one who be-
lieves there will be change in the tip
of play before next season. Two plans
now are being worked out for the con-
sideration Of the rules committee and
one or the other likely will be adopted.
The first is to start play from out Of
bounds and give the ball to the team
scored upon after each basket.
The other calls for two circles on
either side Of the present center ring.
The player who is to put the ball in
play stands in the circle farthest from
IL L. -l-AA 0rvlk NkHa ~
team behind him. The opposing five
also must remain behind the other cir
Gle until the referee calls play"
Neither of the plans may prove salts
factory and need a thorough tryout be-
fore being adopted. But the rules COM
mittee Is coming to the belief that the
center has become to great an individ-
ual factor in the game, so q change may
be forthcoming.

TTHACANS TO PLAY
TWO GAMES HERE
Face Georgetown First, Then
Observation-Disclosures Team
Forfeits to C. U.
BY H. C. BYRD.

~ORNELL University's base ball
team Is due here tomorrow for
4 two games, the first with
Georgetown, on the Washington
Barracks diamond, and the second,
Saturday. with Maryland, at College
Park. The Ithaca nine has played three
games so far on its Southern trip, two
with North Carolina and one with Duke.
It broke even with the Tarheels and
lost to Duke.
In facing Georgetown, Cornell prob
ably will go against the strongest nine
played in more games, which in itself
Is a big advantage, and it also has had
greater opportunity for outdoor prac-
tice. In its game with Maryland the
Ithaca nine will have the advantage Of
having taken part in five games, having
another scheduled with Duke today,
but, at that, Is likely to hit a team far
from weak.
Only one game is scheduled among
the colleges today, that at Gallaudet
with Vermont as the visiting team.
Vermont lost another contest yesterday,
bowling to Navy by IL to Z. The Green
Mountainmen have as yet not won a
game on their trip through this section,
and may not unless they defeat Gal
laudet this afternoon.
Gallaudet plans to start its game at
$3.50. It will send on the field in its
opener, which leaves 1t at a disad-
already played by Vermont, what it
believes to be one of its best teams.
HokanSon, star pitcher of the last two
seasons, Is to do the slab work, while
Hoffmeyer will be behind the plate. The
other players in Gallaudet'S lineup are
likely to be CoSgrove at first, KATE at
second, Brown short, Crockett third,
with zieske, Wurdemann and McMullen
In the outfleld.
Catholic University's game with Villa
nova yesterday wound UP unfortunately
for both schools. Seldom, indeed, is 1t
that forfeit takes place in college base
ball, yet that happened at Brookland,
with Villanova FORGETTING the contest to
pire Watt admoniShed Kobilis, Villa
nova pitcher, that he was not pitching
legally. The Villanova man objected,
and the catcher and first baSeman are
said to have joined in the argument so
vehemently and Stubbornfy that Watt
ordered them out of the game. Both
men refused to go, whereupon Watt
ydIlkeO OuC Ills WAUGH anu gave LL1eul
the legal time to get of the field. When
they had not left at the expiration of
the time limit, Watt declared the game
forfeit to Catholic University. The
score at the time of the forfeit was
to in favor of Catholic University.
On the face Of things, any kind Of a
forfeit to the home team in college ball
does not look especially good, but it is
difficult to see what else could be done.
That is the recourse provided In the
rules, and, while unusual In other than
organized leagues, ought to be enforced
and must be enforced if the umpire
Is to run the game. However, an action
of that kind is the last to be taken
In college ball, and then not If 1t can
possibly be avoided, not because 1t would
not be just action and in accordance
with the rules, but because of the bad
taste it leaves with the visiting nine.
The score.
