# you happened to be twist
ing your radio dial Saturday
night to ...Ine in on an aerial
account Of a football game, did
you at first think you had the
Pacific Coast and mayhap were
catching a broadcast Of a game
out where the sun was still
shining?
Such q thought came to US
at first blush until we recalled
that the Atlantic City audi
toriun had been converted into
a football field with tons and
tons Of turf having been hauled
in to make proper footing for a
regulation game between Wash.
inrton and Jefferson and
Is|lyette.
AS we settled back in the easy
chair and took in the details Of
that nocturnal indoor contest,
the thought struck US that the
hand of man is defying all
nature to get the thing he
wants at the specific hour Of
the "a he wants 1t.
AS the cheering and crowd
antics floated in off the an
tenna we could detect little diff
ference between that and what
W. have witnessed at hundreds
of outdoor afternoon games.
The fans and fanettes sat
around that huge coliseum,
many Of them bedecked In
habiliments generally aSsoci-
ated with formal evening az
fairs. and inhaled their foot
ball amid all the comforts and
refinements Of the opera.
Reports say the setting was
perfect for football, that the
lights made the entire audi
torium as bright as any autumn
afternoon and that the surface
Of the field had been treated
so as to permit Of no dust as
a result Of the digging and
clutching of the football cleatS.
It sounded great over the air
and prompted a keen curiosity
to go to Atlantic City some
time and see the miracle"
performed.
Albie Booth is recovering to-
day from the price of football
genius. All great stars Of
recent times have had to pay
some such penalty for fame.
In that fact lies one of the
hard things about the game.
Often a eagle or q Booth or a
MarSterS or q LasSman has
found himself q marked man,
his eleven opponents going
into a game with q "Get-
So-and-So" slogan. It may be
sportsmanship, but it does
seem unfair that one good
player often finds himself fight
ing eleven fair-to-middlin' ones.

TODAY'S SPORTORLAL
BY Kirk Miller.

Senator Guy .. Goff Of West
Virginia finds himself in a Pc
culiar predicament. He is in
possession Of q request from
some of his constituents up
around Huntington, w. Va, for
something that will be far more
difficult to grant than If he
were merely asked for some
Government seeds, a bit Of farm
relief or possibly legislation to
build q bridge over q dried-up
creek.
The boys UP at Marshall Col.
lege crave a live young buffalo
to cart around the country as
a football mascot and have laid
their needs at the feet Of Sen
ator Goff. The good Senator
has never been known to disap-
point the crowd up there and
accordingly he is seeing the
Secretary Of the Interior this
week to determine If there is
such an animal available off
one Of the Government reserves.
Frank G. Menke, compiler Of
one Of the most complete sports
record books that has ever
reached this desk, says the 1881
edition of Menke'S Handy Hand
Book is soon to be off the press
and will be so superior to the
1880 edition that sports addictS
can throw away all other ref
erence books because his new
encyclopedia will contain every
thing there is to know about
every sport in the world.
Among the other data the
next edition will contain Is the
startling fact that the first
game of baseball was played in
the year 600 B. c. Well, Frank,
that was q long way back, and
there are few living now who
will be able to dispute such a
statement and Just a few who
will be able to verify it.

in Washington this week to see
the Laurel race meet "die out"
He has been in High Point, N.

joys of fox hunting.
1.-THE only thing I can see
about the sport" quoth Frank
today, "is that It gives people
q good excuse for getting very
drunk the night before, good
excuse for getting up early in
the morning, provided they
went to bed in the first place,
and q good excuse for riding q
horse" Outside of that, Mr..
Menke doesn't see much justi-
fication in the pastime. Up
until his recent experience, he
thought the only people who
rode horses were jockeys.
