HOOVER HEARS
REPORT FROM
PARTY HEADS
Republicans Hope for Rain
and Renewed Financial
Confidence.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. a.-The re-
action Of the country to President
Hoover'S recently expressed stand
on prohibition and food relief ap-
propriations has been. brought to
him at the White House during the
last twenty-four hours by Repub-
ncan national committee leaders
from various sections.
The visiting party leaders profess
to be optimistic about the political
outlook for next years presidential
election.
They proclaim a willingness to go
into the campaign on the issues as
they stand, meanwhile hoping for
rain in the drought regions and a
greater financial confidence among
the people.
Among themselves, the party
chieftains are discussing reorgani-
zation of the national committee
set-up for 1882. They are concerned
particularly with the desire Of
Chairman Fess to retire as soon as
practicable, and the confusion in
the committee caused by the con-
troverSy over the private campaign
which Robert Lucas, the commit
tees executive director undertook
against Senator Norris (Rep., Neb0
The party leaders were unani-
mously of opinion, 1t is reliably re-
ported, that no changes should be
made until after congress adjourns
March 4.

That's all you do. Fat seems to

a pound a day. You feel better than

Because the Virginia George
town football game was the lead
ing gridiron event of this section
for many years, and because those
two universities shared leader
ship with other schools of the
South Atlantic, the writer pro.
poses to go back into history to
find the reasons for the extraor-
binary vitality of historical and
natural rir alrieS of the section.
Today. 18 years after the SuS-
pension of historical and natural
rivalrieS, the grid games of 1900
to 1910 in the old South Atlantic
are better remembered than the
grid games of 1920 to 1881.
Yearn For Old Days
That assertion, made in the
best of faith, offers evidence that
there is yearning among alumni
for a return to the happy days
when the South Atlantic rivalrieS
flourished.
The assertion also offers evi-
dence of the tremendous vitality
of those old riValries.
In reviewing historical Incl,
dents and episodes which played
their part in Welding together
the schools and colleges of the
South Atlantic into a natural,
neighborly group of friends, the
writer wishes to state that South
Atlantic friendships, like all
others, had their foundations in
words, thoughts and deeds by
men and institutions who enter.

Exclusive of William and Mary
Georgetown is the oldest of South

1t appears advisable to start
with Georgetown in telling the
historical story of university
friendships and athletic rivalries
in the South Atlantic.
If in the telling the writer ap-
parently neglects incidents and
episodes having a bearing on
some of the rivalrieS of the South
Atlantic, he begs your indulgence.
His intent is merely to indicate
that athletic rivalries are pos
sessed of life and vitality only
when they have an historical
background of common struggles,
common ideals, common hopes
and common friendships.

DRY WEATHER
PREDICTED
FOR TILT
By GEORGE T. DAVIS

LOS ANGELES Dec. 81.
Southern CALIFORNIA; power will
prove three touchdowns stronger
than Tulanes forward passing
attack in the annual Rose Bowl
game tomorrow, Trojan fans be-
lieve.
Unless everything goes con-
trary to their expectations, the
Trojans should score five touch
downs to two for their rivals,
which will give them a claim on
the national championship for
the 1881 season.
It will be a loose-scoring game
if the field is dry. On wet
turf, the advantage of Southern
California would be diminished
and Howard Jones athletes may
be fortunate to drag themselves
off the gridiron the victors.
Troy has played only one
game on a slow field this year
against California-and looked
anything but potential national
champion, while Tulane has had
several mud battles.
Bierman Wants Dry Field
Strange as this may seem. how
ever, Coach Bernie Bierman is
hoping for a dry field so that
the forward passing attack with
Don Zimmerman on the throwing
end, and Jerry Dalrymple and
Lefty" Haynes, on the receiving
assignment might be at its best.
From present indications his
wish will be granted, for the
weather prophesy for tomorrow is
clear, which means that both
teams will be in a position to
present their strongest offense.
More than 10000 fans will re-
joice with the players and coaches
if this is the case. The attend.

already has been broken by the
advance s1le.
Although the Trojans' advan.
tage in weight will not be as
strong as many believe, the local
line will have an average of four
pounds over the forward wall of
the visitors, while the backfield
will average 189 pounds to 173 for
the Greenies.
Pick Starting Lineup

yesterday. the Trojans at Boyard

upon their starting line-ups

IN TEST

The eyes and thoughts of all
good duckpin fans are turned
toward Baltimore, where the
major bowling event of the year,
the second U. S. Sweepstakes, will
take place Saturday. 1t is the
richest duckpin stakes on record,
attracting the country's best.
"Who will win?" is the ques-
ton uppermOst in their minds.
Local enthusiasts are definitely
set on the idea that a Washing
tonian will again snatch the huge
cash award. Jack Whalen, last
year winner, is a Washingtonian.
Foremost among those men,
toned as probable winners is Oh
lie Pacini, who triumphed in the
recent Washington Times Dixie
sweepstakes, the first major test
of the year. The Dixie drew 81

Next to Pacini in current "hot-

totals during the past month and
boosted a 116 average in the Ma
tional Capital League UP to 1875 in
six weeks. One. Of the most re-
markable climbs on record.

Another Washingtonian who
must be reckoned with is Red"
Morgan. Red, inclined to i'll
health. has been making only
sporadic appearances on the
drives and has bowled only a few
league games. But every time he
has rolled he has done superlative
work. He finished third in the
Dixie after poor first set and
rolled 6s6 in the Star tourna-
ment.
Then, there is Astor H. Clarke,
Earl McPhilomy, Red" Megaw,
Jack Whalen, Hokie Smith, Eddie

Johnny Anderson, j. Henry Hiser,
Brad Mandley, all of whom are
right in the midst of things and
to be feared at all times. Clarke,

by inquiry that the club mem

this respect, because he must

be of his own choo ing without
loss of social caste.

us that he had no idea his
game cost him a dime less than

MAJOR STAR

NEW YORK, Dec. 31.-Leslie
Mann. for years one of the lead
ing professional baseball players
of this country, this morning will
make a plea to tine delegates as
sembled here at the meeting OF
the. National COLLEGIATE ASsocia-
ton of Amateur Athletes OF Amer
lea for the advancement OF base
ball. Americas national game is
disappearing from the college
campus, routed before the maSSed
charge of golf, lawn tennis, foot
ball and other activities.
Mann is national director OF the
United States Amateur Baseball
Association, which is allied With
the Amateur Athletic Association
of America.
In making his plea to the col
leges for the advancement of col
legs baseball, Mann will also an
nounce plans for an international
amateur baseball tournament in
connection with the Chicago
Worlds Fair in 1882. He has al
ready received assurances from
Japan, Cuba, Mexico and Canada
that teams will be sent here to
play the best American amateurs.
Hawaii will send teams, and so
will the Philippine Islands.
Elk. Hall, chairman of the rules
committee on football, will sub
init his report today. This report
usually gives an outline Of any
changes contemplated in the rules
and regulations. The report was
awaited with keen interest, due
to the drive made to eliminate
the dangers of the game as shown
by an epidemic of deaths from

An Average Cost

Counting club dues, entertain
ment, side bet nov and again,
and upkeep and replenishing of
equipment, $40 is probably an
average figure per 18-hole for
the private golf club member.
We believe it is the club mem
ber golfer who. has foregone
most of his golf during the So
called depression.
We know another golfer,
whose case, of course, is eXcep-
tional, who, a year ago, be-
longed to six golf clubs in this
vicinity. At a night football
game not so long ago, he told
us he had resigned from four
of them and had also sold his
saddle horse. So, the apparent
ly well,to-do are trimming their
recreational budget, along with
the run-of-the-mi1e sportsmen.
When a swell, elegant club
like Inverness at Toledo, where
the National Open was held,
finds it necessary to shut down,
you can figure it is because a
certain proportion of the
moneyed classes find they no
longer have either the leisure
or money to indulge in a sport
which requires plenty of both.
However, golf can't complain.
1t took in 1881 only what base.
ball and football and lesser
sports took-a cut that was
bound to come, following the
inflated postwar years, which
got us all to living and playing
on a scale which was some
what abnormal.
