COACHES SEE.
TREND FOR
BETTER

NEW YORK, Dec. 28.-The cur
rent meeting here of football
coaches and other bodies affilia-
ted in various ways with college
athletics, will go down in history
as one of the best and busiest.
On every hand one gets reper-
cussions of Prof Philip Badgers
startling speech at the Amos
Alonzo Stagg luncheon. His state
ment that New York University
was not deemphasiZing but de-
odorizing reechoed through the
meeting hall and was taken up
this mo- ming where the mentors
of football assembled for their
gabfest on the technique of the
grid game.
The consensus seemed to be
that Prof. Badger was neither
wholly right nor wholly wrong.
It was admitted on all hands
that not all of the colleges were
making conscientious efforts to
set their athletic house in order.
But the writer could not find a
single coach nor director who
would admit that the athletic
system at his school was in need
of deodorizing.
Neither was an admission made
that the colleges would be openly
and avowedly professional in ten
years. It was agreed that the
trend was toward better things.
DR.. Eddie O'Brien, one of the
great surgeons of the day, ar
raigned those coaches who could
take it to themselves" for un-
ethical practice in teaching foot.

Boys are still being taught
how to hook and hold, and you
coaches know who are the
teachers" said the medicO.
You can not fool good Off.
ialS, and if you do fool them,
you are injuring your boys"
Lou Little, of Columbia, sug-
geSted that the coaches select its
own rules committee of approx
mately Is members and this body
yearly submit recommendation
for whatever changes thought
necessary in the rules.

Understands Situation

K. A. H. shows an under
standing and appreciation OF
the situation when he writes:
"You said something the
other day about January l and
the Big Birthday in horse
land, when the yearlings with
their new official names go to
the races and when the babies
of the year before become all
grown up and ready for their
biggest season.
you've been sending it along
on the nose for a long time,
Bill. Don't you sort of sit back
and wonder if there will be
any romance horses among
the twO-year-OldS of 1888,
horses that can live uP to the
tradition Of their daddies?

that, and then died under

horse to the end, to earn a
tomb and monument on the
infield of the track right close
to where he fell.
"Will some of these young

after that, be a Mike Hall or

them go through the grind as

CUBA'S INJURY
BLOW To
PITT

TUCSON, Ariz., Dec. 28.-Coach
Jock Sutherland, of the Pitts
burgh Panthers was menaced by
a new problem today as he con-
tinued practices for the game
against the University of South
ern California in the Pasadena
Rose Bowl January 2.
Pitts giant tackle. Paul Cuba,
injured a leg in scrimmage and
was carried from the gridiron
yesterday. He will be unable to
work out with the team again
until Saturday, if then. He is
the only one of the regulars on
the injured list. Physicians eX-
pressed belief he would be able
to play Monday.
Hurt in Scrimmage
, Cuba was hurt in the last reg
ularly scheduled Scrimmage. Light
signal drills were to be conducted
during the next four days pre-
ceding departure of the Panthers
Saturday night for the Coast.
The scrimmage yesterday on
the Arizona University gridiron
followed workout in the desert
near the hotel with the players
concentrating on offense. The
afternoon session was devoted
wholly to scrimmage with en-
phasis on defense.
Face Passes
Defensively the Pitt regulars
faced an diversified display of
passes indicating Sutherland ex-
pected the Trojans to attack by
air as we'll as by land.
Heller, Sebastian and Skladany,
regulars who had been injured
slightly in previous workouts, now
are in good condition and ready
for the Trojans.
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 28.-The
University of Southern California
football team was to have a long
hard scrimmage today and then
taper off the next few lays for
their game in the Pasadena Rose
Bowl Monday against Pitts Pan
theirs, now poised at Tucson, Ariz.
Coach Howard Jones indicated
all his playelo were in excellent
condition. Uncertainty surrounded
the personnel of the starting back
field, but it was considered likely
the same, quartet that started
against Notre Dame would hear
the opening whistle against the
PantherS.

WEIGHT WHIPS
BOB GOODWIN

You can't spot a good man II
pounds and get away with it too
often.
Bob Goodwin, Southern light
heavyweight boxer, strongly re-
allies this today, suffering the
pains and bruises he received at
the hands of Les Kennedy, 188-
FOUNDER from the Pacific Coast,
in their Ground meeting over in
Portner's Arena in Alexandria,
Va, last night.
Kennedy was master of the
situation throughout and only
Godwin's gameness permitted him
to last the distance. Kennedy
thumped many murderouS punches
into the Southerner's body and
these didn't soothe GodWin's feel
ings.
Nevertheless, Goodwin was al
ways trying, always seeking to put
Kennedy flat on his back. This
was plainly evident in the fifth,
sixth and seventh rounds when
Goodwin let fly with everything
but his punches hardly dazed the
heavier opponent.
Roy Manley, local welterweight,
outpointed Bobby Burns, of Balti-
more, in the eight-round semi
windup. Joe Doty drew the nod
over Frank Hozas, of Baltimore,
in the opening four-rounder;
Harry "Izzy" Raines, of Balti-
more, scored a technical knockout
over Sailor Leonard in three
rounds while Leroy Dugan and
Harry kid" Groves, of Balti-
more, drew in four rounds.

RumorDempesy
To Head New
Arena

NEW YORK, Dec. 28.-Coinci-
dent with a report that Col. John
S. Hammond, ousted official of
Madison Square Garden, would
head a rival syndicate intending
to run against the Garden on a
cut-throat basis came a statement
from Jack Dempsey today that he
was taking up permanent head
quarters here, and had under con-
sideration an offer to conduct a
new sports arena in the Times
Square district.
He had just finished a mid
night telephone talk with George
Getz, Chicago millionaire, who,
he says, wants him to bring the
Schmeling-Baer fight there for
the worlds fair this summer.
They will confer here January 4.
Dempsey says:
1--WE been prOpOSitiOned to
step in as the head Of q pro-
posed new arena that will go
after the fight game indoors in
q way that the Garden is not
liable to like. There's room for
another arena, particularly a
better one. And If we go for
this thing, it will be q better
one"
Dempsey would not discuss a
possible connection between his
announcement and the rumor
about Hammond. But unless the
town is full of rival syndicateS
and New Gardens" are to grow
in every doorway. the implication
is fairly strong. In other words,
if Dempsey and Hammond aren't
together, they'd better get there.

the sort of snob he had despised
when he met one on his arrival in

Not only his college and athletic
career, but his romance with the

takes a smashing climax to snap
him out of his false position and
restore him to the place he once

The lively music, thrilling cheer
