At WISCONSIN

MADISON, Wis, Dec. 15'
Prominent among the coaches
mentioned here today for the post
of Athletic Director George E,
Little, who resigned, we're Fritz
Crisler, director at Minnesota; !;
Andrew Kerr, Colgate mentor !;
and Franklin Cappon, assistant
director at Michigan.
Nothing definite was known of
the future plans of the University
of Wisconsin. for the news Of
Little's resignation burst like a
bombshell. Dismissal of Glenn
ThiStlethwaite, head football
coach, had been expected but it
was generally supposed Little
would remain. Last year Little'S
support of Thistlethwaite caused
the athletic board to keep the
gridiron tutor for another season.
This year Little had announced
he could not recommend keeping
the coach.
Thistlethwaite's formal resigna-
tion has not been presented and
although many expect it momen-
tarily, there we're rumors he might
supersede Little as director.

Bottomley knows how to fry
chicken, and Jim has spent much of
his time since the base ball season
ended eating it.
This is the first time I've talked
base ball since that thing in Phila-
delphia," Bottomley told an inter-
viewer. That's the nice thing about
a town like Nokomis Nobody ever
asks me about base ball, or whether
I'm going to be traded, or what was
the matter. It's just, Hello, Jim:
glad to see you home And that's
what helped me to forget about
1880. There's no place in the world
like Nokomis to me-"
Bottomley, who is unmarried, lives
with his mother and father and is
as much the idol in that houshold
as he is on the base ball diamond.
Most of the pictures in the house
are Of Jim and his base ball friends.
There is a panel showing him re-
ceiving the most valuable player
award in 1928. There are so many
photographs that they overflow into
the basement and into the store
room on the. second floor.

by such figures as Larned, McLough-
lin, Johnston, and particularly by
Big Bill Tilden, who has turned
professional.
Many of Doeg's predecessors made
the American championship Synony-
NOUS with world supremacy. TIL
den, holder of the American title
seven times since 1920, during the
early part of the past decade beat
every one who showed up in Davis
Cup competition.
Doeg, however, has announced
that business comes first with him,
and has indicated that he is not
available for Davis Cup team. He
intends, though, to defend his title
at Forest Hills this year.
The odds are something less than
$3.50 that the 1881 tournament will
add another title to Doeg's tennis
fame. In winning his first title last
year, Doeg barely managed in the
finals to outstay Frank Shields,
young New York star, and during
the year other youngsters such as
Cliff Suffer and Sidney Wood
played tennis on par with his.
Doeg. who was born in Mexico,
December Z, 1908, lives in Santa
Monica, Calf, and comes from a
tennis family. His aunt, May SUIT
ton Bundy, formerly was the wom-
ems tennis champion of America.
In addition to a tennis back
ground, Doeg has fine build for
the game. He is six feet one inch
in height, and weighs around 172
pounds. Like Tilden before him,
Dogs chief asset Is his service.
Serving with tremendous force,
he counts on winning every service
game and to break through his OPP
ponentS service once for the set.
He is more at home at the net
than the baseline and often follows
cross-court drive teamed with a well
placed chop.
His forehand drive is poor and
his footwork is faulty which renders
him weak at the baseline.

At the time McPhilomy gave promise
of becoming the finest duckpin bowler
of all time. and Megaw, Campbell and
Wolstenholme were in their prime.
Rosenberg is better now than ever
Wolstenholme is a washed out star

Death of Carroll
Mourned by Many
BY R. D. THOMAS.

THE death of Harry Carroll, pro-
i prietor of the Recreation and
Coliseum, takes away an out
standing figure in Washington sport,
but more than that, greatly beloved
man. Through the Is or more years
that he was associated with the
bowling game Carroll was not always
in accord either with fellow promo
tiers or others who had ideas of how
the sport should be managed. But
friend and critic were ever unani-
nous on one point, that Harry Car
roll thought as much with his heart
as his head, perhaps more. There

his acts of benevolence when his
status in life as Q business man and

+ OS ANGELES, January 1.-THE
IL new, larger and lighter golf ball
still is the main topic of con-
versation when two or more profess
sioriaI golfers get together. The ball
is receiving its first thorough try
out at the hands of the all-Star field
competing in the big money events,
and opinions as to its worth are
many and varied.
Those golfers who possess a
smooth, rhythmic swings likt 1t and
are scoring we'll, while players of the
slug and putt school find few things
about the ball to commend. Three
of the strongest proponents OF the
new ball are Eddie Loos and Al
Espinosa of Chicago and Leo Oiegel
OF Aqua Caliente, Mexico.
1T is by far the best ball We ever
have had in golf" declared Diegel,
ANY one who dislikes the ball is not
a good golfer. The new ball has
again made golf game OF skill,
rather than strength. 1t has made
iron second shots and the short APP
breaches to the green real test.
The fellow with a free and accurate
swing will score very well, and the.
only difference / find between the
new and the old ball is on the
green. There one must hit the ball
firmly, for it responds more freely
to any breaks of the green"
Eddie Loos was bit more
detailed in his explanation. You
cannot punch this new ball without
knocking it off line" declared the
stylish Chicago pro. You swing
through the ball and feel you are
staying with it and carrying it along
on the face Of the club to get the
best results. I think most Of the
fellows who are losing shots are
dropping them on the putting green.
The ball drifts more on cut-iron
shots than the old one and takes
back spin much quicker. But for
the fellow who can play the in-be-
tween shots it will be great ball"
