SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
in TODAY'S NEWS

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Nov. 2. U.R) = The
Yale-Dartmouth game Saturday
demonstrated clearly why graduate
managers, coaches, athletic direc-
tors and others whose very exist
ence is bound up in football always
have been able to smile blithely
when some of this countryS better
minds have predicted a growing dis
interest in the gridiron sport.
The graduate managers, coaches,
athletic directors, ETC., have known
all along that if there came a time
when the customers tired of the
game and spent Saturday after
moons reading Keats instead of
fighting their way into million dol
lar stadiums, all they would have
to do to revive interest would be
to devise ways and means of max
ing the game more spectacular.
The wild and woody, everyman
for himself thing in New Haven
Saturday proved the customers
want fireworks and still more fire
works. 1t wasn't much of a game
from the standpoint of orthodox
football, but it was spectacular and
did the fans love it? Accounts l
read said the spectators left in
state next door to hysteria and,
nearly all the writer's said it was
one of the greatest games in years.
What made the Yale-Dartmouth
game spectacular? Well, I'd say
the absence of linemen. Of course,
both teams had seven men in front
of the backfield, and called them
linemen, but I think most of 'em
were working under false pretenses.
For when in one game the backs
spin off 10 runs which average
better than Sd yards each, the
lineSmen are that in name only.
So, if III a few years worst comes
TO worst, the chess matches starr
outdrawing football, all the athletic
directors, coaches, etc, need do is
eliminate the line. and make the
game a track meet between the
backs.
Such a move would not be any
thing new to sports, baseball was
slipping in popularity when the
Moguls decided to jazz things up
by introducing a rabbit ball. This
ball. which would jump over the
fence even when smacked by an
anemic shortstop, resulted in more
and better home runs. Of course
the rabbit ball made joke of
smart baseball and reduced the ne
cessity for a smart defense to a
minimum, but the boys and girls
loved to see the ball ride over the
fences and the thoughtful owners
thought it best to let them have
their way.
Wrestling did the same thing.
The billy goat butt, the airplane
swing, the football tackle, and those
other goofey "holds" you see at
1881 wrestling match are no more
wrestling than knitting is. But
John M. Public and his family
wanted something spectacular and
they got it.
Hockey customers tired of seeing
Scoreless games and IL times SO
the owners started seeing what
could be done about making scor-
ing a little easier. They intro
duced the forward pass and other
things and business picked up.
Just as soon as they open up the
game little bit more, they'll do
even better business.

UNIVERSITY DISCLAIMS
BLAME IN FORECASTS
By the Associated Press.


CAMBRIDGE, Mass, January TO-
Harvard University today denied it was
responsible to any degree for the COM
mercial results, beneficial or otherwise,
resulting from bulletins issued by the
Harvard Economic Society.
An article in the Harvard alumni
bulletin by William P. Everts, Boston
lawyer and Harvard graduate, yester-
day said: In weighing the causes of the
great stock market crash, Harvard Uni
versity must receive its full share of the
blame AS we look back over the bull
letins of the Harvard Economic So
ciety, sent out every week by Harvard
economists, we realize very forcibly how
wrong they have been during the last
two years"
A statement issued by the university
said that in 1927 the society was sepa-
rated from the university because of a
belief that 1t would be unwise for the
latter to be connected with economic
forecasts.
Recognizing that it would be unwise
TO take any part in forecasting for
commercial purposes the economic flu
ture, the corporation recorded on April
IL, 1925, its intention to terminate the
Harvard economic service as then con-
Quoted by the university" it said.
The final separation was completed
by vote of the corporation on Novem-
Der IA, 1927, and the society was re-
organized as an independent CORPORA

Mr.. Bolm is completing four ballets

The first ballet in The Genius" is

its own way the key to the talents they
possess and the pleasure they provide.
This generosity of theirs" continues
the writer, "is among the major virtues
of their acting. It Is not based upon
the non-esthetic principles of philan-
thropy It's source, its solitary source,
Is the unerring instinct for the theater
which they both possess and from which
it springs. AS theater, and not as a
moral instinct, this generosity of theirs
departs from the noble Christian doc
trines Of unselfshness by balancing Its
mutual giving with its mutual taking.
But though this give and take Of the
Lunts may have no connection with the
Sunday school moralities, it is none the
less subServent to that good old Bible
precept which contends that charity be-
gins at home, for the Lunts, as every
one must know, are man and wife. -
And here comes the STARTER.
Individual as they are and innocent
as their performances are from the
blemishes of domestic STIFFNESS, their
acting Is none the less married acting,
If one can call 1t that. But it is mar
ried acting that takes advantage Of its
status, that gains a new freedom from
its bond that puts marriage, as 1t puts
all things, to the use Of the theater

tails and so uninhibited in its affection

after one Of the love scenes in Caprice,
Isn't it nice, my dear, to know that

And Walter Hampden complains that
critics are not sympathetic, that by
their insidious sophistication and oblique
sneers they actually mislead the public
into believing that there Is something
wrong with plays or players when there
isn't
