MAJOR FOOT BALL
TEAMS NEED REST
Facing Big Rival Always Is
Too Heavy Task-East
Is Losing Ground.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, october 23.-Chick
IN Meehan, head coach at New
" York University, can't foresee
the day when big foot ball
teams will play none but big teams and
the little fellows win stay in their own
class.
1.-THE boys try too hard against major
opponents in the early season and
they're not ready" he says. They're
not In condition for gruelling games,
haven't learned enough. They get hurt.
Look at Harvard, scrimmaged the third
day out this season and still suffering
from injuries.
"It would take two teams to push
through a schedule Of all major games
and there's not enough incentive Tor
the second eleven. 1 do not think,
though, that there Is future Tor 15O-
pound teams"
Chick believes that the East has been
forced to give ground to the West and
South in the matter Of foot ball Suprem-
acy because of the multitude OF colleges
sharing the Eastern material compared
to the less numerous universities IN the
West.
"Why there are three major colleges
in New York City alone-N. Y. u, Co
lumbia and Fordham-and within the
city limits there are four others. Phila-
deiphia has Penn, Villanova, Temple,
Swarthmore and Drexel within hailing
distance. Out West the universities are
scattered, sometimes hundreds Of miles
apart.
Say, you can start down the Atlantic
Coast in an automobile and have break
fast at one college, lunch at another
and dinner at q third from Maine to
Florida. You'd starve to death trying
that on the Pacific Coast"

@HICAGO, October 23.-Stirred
by Michigan's apparent return
to the status Of a first-class
foot ball power, Wolverine fans
to the number of nearly $1,000 will
watch Harry Kipkes eleven strive
against Illinois Saturday at Ann Arbor.
The attendance at the Purdue-Michi
gan clash two weeks ago was much
lower than a Big Ten championship
contest usually attracts at Ann Arbor
But the Wolverines defeated the 1923
champions, and ticket sales for the Illi-
nois game speeded up. Last Saturdays
victory over Ohio State was all that
pacity crowd in the huge stadium, and
the biggest attendance Of the Middle
Western season to date appears certain.
While the Wolverines have won their
pair of conference games, Coach Kipke
has been unable to present the same
team on any occasion. Injuries have
forced him to alter his battle front
each week, and Saturday will provide
no exception. Howard Auer, tackle, and
Norm Daniels and Rod Cox, ends, are
out with injuries, and Kipke Is still
seeking suitable requirements.
VIII Revamp IIIini.
The Illini lineup also will be re-
vamped. The 32-to-0 smacking handed
out by Northwestern last week caused
Coach Zuppke to call in the reserves.
Capt Olaf Robinson will be at quarter
instead Of fullback, and Pete Yanuskus
and Gil Berry viii be at the halves. Art
Sutton, who played with the 'B" team
last week, probably will be the other
member Of the quartet instead Of Ernie
Chattin.
Purdue will reach a crisis Saturday

GEHRIG IN HOSPITAL
FOR SOME REPAIRS
Lou Has Broken Finger, Dislocated
Elbow and Bad Ear for Sur
geons to Work On.

NEW YORK, october 23 QP.-The
Evening World today said Lou Gehrig.
smuggling first baSeman Of the New
York Yankees, is ready to go to a nos
pital now for repairs which should
have been made long before the base
ball season ended.
There is a broken finger, q dislo-
Gated left elbow and several painful
cysts In the lobe of the right ear for
surgeons to 60 to work on within the
next few days, the World said. Gehrig
refused to interrupt his work during
the season. He hasn't missed ball
game since 1925, and is something less
than two and a half seasons behind
Everett SCOTS record for consecutive
games played.
Gehrig's friends who knew Of his dis
abilities said today the injuries prob
ably were responsible in part for the
loss of this years battling champion
ship to Al Simmons of the Athletics.
Before his finger and arm cracked,
they said, Gehrig thought he had the
crown tucked away.

Totals, Business. SC; Eastern, 1853.

IT seems that we've heard Hap Har-
i dell, Tach coach, talk in the same
vein before, but at any rate the Nc
Kinley mentor says that Tech has o
wholesome fear Of its old foe, Central,
which win be met Tuesday in battle
that probably will go far toward decid-
ing the public high grid title.
Central has good club, all right.
I'm sure of that after the way 1t shaped
up against Western. Tech Is not con-
ceding Central victory, but we face q
battle"
And that, dear folks, you can re-
gard as important or not, as you see
ut. From where we sit It looks like
Tech, but as a rule Tech Central games
are always bitter struggles with not a
great deal to choose between the teams.
Along about dusk Tuesday evening
something rather definite should be
known as to what's what.
IN addition to the Business Eastern
i game, q couple Of other schoolboy
contests are listed hereabout tomorrow
in which considerable interest Is mani
fest.
Gonzaga Is to invade Catholic Uni
versity Stadium to face the Cardinal
yearlings, and Landon and woodward
are to have 1t out on the Tidal Basin
field.
The c. u. Cubs are favorites to win,
having shone well in their only game
to date, 90 draw with the strong
Dewitt eleven. Gonzaga, handicapped
by the loss of several dependable play
ers through scholastic difficulties, will
please its supporters If it can hold the
freshmen to close score.
Woodward will be out to even scores
for a TO defeat suffered last year at
the hands of Landon.
st. Adams gridders are down to meet
University Schools eleven in Baltimore.

~ the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, October 23.-With
N Saturdays games, Eastern foot
ball goes definitely into that
part Of the season in which
tradition bears q large portion Of the
interest in the games.
Harvard and Dartmouth viii have
their thirty-seventh struggle. Harvard
has lost one game this year, 60 de-
cision to Army, while Dartmouth did
not get q real test in running up q
$40 count against Columbia.
Yale and Army started their series
in 1898. The powerful Army aggrega-
ton may 60 on to championship hon
ors Of some kind If it can pass Albie
Booth and a strong Yale line.
Princeton and Navy also are rivals
of long standing and with both teams
showing signs of improvement after
bad starts they may produce a good
battle. Other rivalries on this weeks
gridiron card which date back into the
00s or before are the Brown-Holy Cross
game, the Lafayette Washington and
Jefferson night struggle at Atlantic
City, Gettysburg Bucknell and AM
herst- Wesleyan.
Fordham and New York University
are not numbered among the gridiron
ancients, but both teams are unde-
feated this year and have champion
ship aspirations.
In the Pittsburgh otre Dame strug-
gle at Pittsburgh, two candidates for
Nationwide recognition are scheduled
to settle an argument.

defeat by Michigan does not mean they
are out Of the Big Ten race, but de-
feat by the surprising Badgers may be
accepted as q death blow to Purdue's
hope of retaining the title It won last
year for the first time in history.
Coach Noble Kizer has worked his
team hard this week and has said that
Purdue will shoot the works against the
Badgers. Alex Yunevitch probably will
play only a few minutes. WiSconsin's
defense has caused Coach Glenn This
tlethwaite little worry this week. but the
against Pennsylvania and Chicago. has
not been so good.
Both Northwestern and Chicago, with
non-Conference games this week, are
looking ahead to more important tussles
a week hence. Northwestern does not
anticipate much trouble from Centre
College, and Coach Hanley Is working
for Minnesota. Chicago has Mississippi
this week, but the Princeton engage
ment next week Is absorbing the atten-
ton Of Coach Stagg.
Indiana Goes South.
Indiana today headed toward Dali
las Tex, where the Hoosiers will assist
in the dedication of Southern Methodist
University's new stadium. Coach Pat
Page has drilled his men on forward
pass defense to the exclusion Of almost
everything else, but was more hopeful
Of holding the Mustangs to low score,
than winning.

SOCCER LOOP DROPS
WASHINGTON TEAM
Surprise Action Is Taken to Make
League Even-Games Seized
uled for Sunday.

Declaring that the league had an
uneven number of clubs entered, the
oldest local soccer organization, the
Washington Soccer League, has voted
the Washington Soccer team out OF
the circuit.
This decision registered a distinct
surprise among soccer fans, as the
Washington club included some of the
best known District hooters In George
Faulds, Dave McLain, Tom Blanche,
Heise, Louie and Emil Konnel.
The two soccer loops, the Washington
and the Capital City, have scheduled
i've games for Sunday.
In the Capital City League, Army will
play Rockville at Rockville, Rosedale
will play Silver Spring at the formers
field and Gaithersburg will play Fashion
Shop at Silver Spring.

second stringers get a chance to take
the place of the varsity they will be
in the game battling for all they are
worth.
It is likely that Maryland will start
the same team that 1t has used in its
other games, with the possible eXcep-
ton Of two or three players who are
not in very good shape physically. Bad
colds seem to have afflicted the squad
during the last few days and two or
three varsity players have not been in
uniform.
on a basis of what the two teams
have done SO far Maryland ought to
be the choice to win. 1t has shown
greater scoring power especially than
the Cadets. However, all games that
have been played between the two
schools have been won by the smallest
kind of margins. Even last season,
when v. M. ]. was picked to win by five
touchdowns, It barely defeated the
MaryIanders by one point, to 6. Three
years ago, when Maryland was much
the stronger, 1t barely won by 10 to .,
and in another game in which every
thing seemed to favor v. M. /. by
wide margin the result was 0 TO 0.
The game between v. M. /. and Mary
land apparently has developed into one
of those contests in which, no matter
what the pre-game indications, both
teams battle desperately, with one hav-
ing to put forth its greatest effort to
get victory by a slender margin.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.-Arnold Hor-

varsity together before the Dartmouth
game. Only Capt. Ben Ticknor was
missing yesterday and his injury is only
slight one. The whole team hasn't
been At to play since the opening week
Of practice.
HAMILTON, N. Y.-Colgate has a
new question to PROFOUND before the
Penn State game. It is triple-threat
back who boasts the name OF Ask.
ANNAPOLIS, Md.-The recent shake
up in the Nays varsity evidently has
brought a much-needed improvement.
The regulars put over five touchdowns
against the plebes yesterday as the re-
vamped team had its first real tryout.
PRINCETON. N. Princeton I'm

Navy this week. Langdon "Biffy" Lea
got into yesterdays scrimmage against
Rider College for his first hard drill
since the season opener.
WEST POINT, N. Y.-Right guard

its preparations for Yale. Hillsinger,
regular guard, is out again and none Of
three candidates, Trice, Carlson Gal
lagher, has proved entirely satisfactory.
NEW YORK,-Something Of a dis
lance record for foot ball fandom has
been established by Maj. j. j. Travis,
who took commercial course at N. Y.
u. a few years ago. Yesterday cable
was received from him from Moscow,
Russia, saying Gable Fordham result. I"

ITHACA, N. "a 12-to-7 victory
over Princeton and two weeks to pre-
pare for Columbia evidently is not
enough to satisfy Coach Gil Dobie Of
Cornell. Dobie showed a lot Of dis

Of changes in the varsity lineup fol-
lowed.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.-Mal Stevens

LEXINGTON, Va, October 2S.-Lex-

major foot ball game in the western

Expectations are that grid fans will
come here in droveS to attend the
game and at the same time watch the
inaugural proceedings that install DR..
Francis Pendleton Gaines as the sew
enteenth president of washington and

Preparations are complete for the
days program, with the ceremonies in
the morning, reception at noon, the
foot ball game in the afternoon and
the first informal dance Of the year at
night.
Individual faults spotted in the Ken
lucky game have been ironed out and
the inesmen given much work.
Despite the JohnnieS' defeat at the
hands of Maryland last week and the
loss to v. M. I. earlier in the season,
there is not much belief in the Wash
ingon and Lee camp that the Annapoli-
tans are weak.

Not So Much Concerned Over
Maryland's 0ffense for Game
in Richmond Saturday.

LEXINGTON, Va, October 2s.--
Members of the v. M. I. squad went
back to grueling scrimmage work yes
terday in an effort to put power and
drive into the attack that will be
directed against Maryland at Richmond
Saturday.
The A and B elevens battled up and
down Alumni Field for nearly an hour
before Coaches Bill Raftery and Ed
Hess were willing to call it day.
Today defensive tactics, as usual, will
receive attention, but the Cadet coaches
are considerably more concerned about
tn Flying Squadron's scoring punch
than about the Old Line offensive, that
was good for three touchdowns each
against the strong North Carolina and
st. Johns machines.
A short limbering-up workout will be
taken tomorrow while the Cadets are
on their way to Richmond.

The Booth Test.

The Booth Test.
A correspondent wishes to know just
what Albie Booths status Is at the cur
rent moment. HE was only fair against
Georgia." the letter suggests, but great
against Brown. Was this because
Georgia was so much stronger than
| BROWNE"
So far as 1880 is concerned young
Booth has two Saturdays in succession
to face that will be quite enough to
| test the caliber of any star. They in
clude the Army and Dartmouth, two of
the best teams in foot ball. Any one
who can step against this pair can step
almost anywhere. Although 1t may be
difficult to make Georgia believe 1t after
| 1929 and 1880.
Booths average so far has been quite
high. Last Fall he got nowhere against
Georgia, but starred against Brown,
Army, Dartmouth and Maryland. He
was in no condition to show anything
against Harvard. This Fall he was Moth
ing great against Georgia, but topnotch
| against Brown again. Now he has
, Army, Dartmouth, Princeton and Har-
ward still ahead. No one can help but
get an answer out Of this.
zuppke and Illinois have been noted
in the past for their quick comebacks,
but they will need an extra set of steel
! springs to come back against a strong
Michigan eleven this Saturday.
Some Quarterback.
THE quarterback supply this season
l. runs above the average. To men,
ton only few there are Carideo
Of Notre Dame, Baker of Pittsburgh,
Downs Of Georgia, Wood of Harvard,
Booth Of Yale-and the list has only
started. The average has been higher
than usual in spot where strength is
needed. There will be strong additions
from the West Coast after this week.
ANY quarterback who has to call the
right play in this complicated modern
game has to have at least two quail
ties-he must be smart and lucky. He
has to make the first guess. His critics
have the second guess, which is alwayas
simpler.

VIRGINIA RESTS THOMAS
Wants Its Star Halfback at Best
for Kentucky Contest.

UNIVERSITY, Va, october 49,
Bill Thomas, the Virginia halfback, who
will lead the attack against Kentucky,
has been permitted to take things easy
this week in order that he may be at
hts best when the Cavaliers face the
Wildcats on Saturday.
In the five games Virginia has played,
Thomas has had much to do. And he
has still more ahead of him in the con-
test with Maryland, Washington and
Lee. v. p. I. and North Carolina.
Thomas did not appear on Lambeth
Field this week until Wednesday, and
then he was in track toys. He did just
enough to warm up.
This 175-pound halfback knows now
to do about all that needs to be done
on the foot ball field. He has disttn-
guished himself In every game the Cav
alters have played this Fall, both on at
tack and on defense. /.

STENOGS' LINEUP
TO Be UNCHANGED
Coach Woodwork Sure Team
Will Do Better Than In
Tech Defeat.
BIZ EDWARD A. FULLER, JR.

nv YE'VE got a sweet chance
NV to win. Our boys still
v v have their fighting
spirit. Loss of that
Tech game did not kill that. I'm
sure they'll do better against
Eastern than they did against
Tech. Business remembers that
46-0 defeat Eastern gave it last
year, too"
Thus did Lynn Woodwork, Business
coach, today size up the Stenogs'
chances in their public high school foot
ball game against Eastern tomorrow
afternoon in the Central High Stadium
at 3:45 o'clock. It will be the third
game of the series, the first for Eastern
and the second for Business. The
Stenogs were beaten 0 to 80 by Tech,
the defending champion, in the series
opener and viii be battling their hearts
out tomorrow for victory in order to
stay in the struggle for the pennant.
Business plans to start the same line
up against Eastern as begun against

end; johnson, quarterback; Strasser,
left halfback; Jacobson, right halfback;
Duryee, fullback. The big shots in the
Stenog attack are Bill Duryee and YER
non johnson, who scales only lis
pounds. They are real threats.
Mike Kelley. Eastern coach, was non
commital today regarding the chances
of the Light Blue, though he was, Of
course, hopeful of victory. Eastern has
q team made up largely Of boys who
have played little foot ball. They have
been coming along nicely, though, and
may show considerably better than
expected.
kelley announced that the Light Blue
probably would take the field at the
start as follows:
Davis, left end; Campbell, left tackle:
Wolfe, left guard; Shorb, center; Mades,
right guard; Oakley, right tackle;
Taylor or McAboy, right end; Wells,
quarterback; Smoak, left halfback;
Wade, right halfback; Corridor, full
back. Red Wells and Flip Corridor are
the boys who are figured 10 do most Of
Eastern's ball toting.
