Brawner Gazes
As Golf DueIs
Continue
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

FIVE FARMS COURSE, BAL
TIMORE, Md, Country Club,
Sept. 15.-The lone Washington
ian, John F. Brawner, of Colum-
bia Country Club, who carried
the torch as the others fell by
the wayside, was merely a by
stander today as eight survivors
fought it out over the 36-hole
distance in the national amateur
golf championship.
One Of those survivors was c.
Ross Somerville, the Canadian
who dispatched Brawner. S and
8, in his first 18-hole match yes
terday morning. Brawner's de-
feat didn't look so dismal after
the Canadian had eased out Jack
Westland. And Westland was one
of those elected by the experts to
pluck the title right off Francis
Ouimet's shoulders.
The "Old Man" Lives
"Old Man" Ouimet, 80. is out
here today teeing up, with a
grim determination to continue
the slaughter of his challengers.
The "Old Man" is on the spot,
but his golf weapons are splitting
forth too much fire for his enc
mics.
Washingtonians felt proud that
one of their eight entrants placed
among the 80 for match play.
Brawner, a dark horse" from a
Washington standpoint, cam m
through unexpectedly. He de-
feated Willie Turnesa early yes
terday. morning in the play-off
for the last qualifying place with
par four on the first hole.
Most Washington golf fans
looked to Harry Pitt, Maury Nee,
Roger Peacock and Miller Stevin-
son to represent the city in
match play but they failed their
supporters.
Product Of Mcleod
Brawner, who has rarely played
in tournaments around the Capi.
tai City in the past few years,
confines his golf to week-ends at
Columbia. A product of that
master craftsman of the game,
Freddy Mcleod, he is sometimes
handicapped by a hip trouble
that bobs up now and then. This
ailment was about to reappeaI
as he lost to Somerville.

VARIOUS FORMS
Of FOOTBALL
DEFENSES
BY HARRY COSTELLO

by hAn01 COS1 EAAO
Modern football demands a de-
fense with offensive potentiali-
ties.
Authority for the statement is
Edgar E. cRip~ Miller, Navy's
youthful grid chief.
At Annapolis one will find each
day after football practice, Nays
group of coaches sitting around
the conference table.
Discuss Many Things
At these meetings rip" and
Christy Flanagan, and Johnny
O'Brien and other Navy coaches
discuss organization of practice
sessions, ways and means of over
coming obstacles, methods, poll
cies and strategies Of football.
Catching rip" after one OF
these conferences, and prevailing
upon him to talk technical foot
fall means new knowledge OF
football.
Generally speaking" says
Miller, "there are four normal
defenses in football. They are
called the 7-2-2, or box de-
fense; the 7-1-2-1, or diamond
defense; the 6-2-2-1 defense,
and the $50 defense.
"The first two are Knute
Rockne'S old 'SpcaFhead' and
staggered diamond reSpec-
lively. The 6.2-2-1 is a defense
especially efficaciOuS against a
strong fOrward-paSSing attack,
more especially against a team
which hurIS long OVerheadS.
The 6-3-2 defense was created
to halt q team possessed of q
strong running attack.
Studies Special Defenses
"Our coaching staff here At
Navy is now studying special
defenses. Among the interest
ing special defenSeS are the
6-2-1-2 and the 5-2-1-2-1. If the
student of football will draw
these two defenses on paper
he will discover the extraOrdi-
nary offensive possibilities of
each.
"The 5-2-1-2-1 Is called the
Texas defense, in honor Of
the University Of Texas, where
Clyde Littlefield has met with
such success with the five-man
first line of defense and the
four secondary lines.
"The 6-2-1-2 Is intriguing,
too, as any student Of football
will note If he studies this de-
fenSe in relation to very nearly
any dangerous attack known
to football"
Miller believes that the public
is going in for technical football
He also feels that it is only right
to reveal to the public many of
the gridiron's so-called secrets ~
He adds:
FANS KNOW FOOTBALL
American crowds at foot
ball games are not quite so
dumb as some would have us
believe. 1, for one, am salts
fled that many of the people
attending grid games know
their football. They are in
terested in technical features Of
play.
"AprOpOs these defenses men,
toned, / will wager that many
football fans will study these
six defenSes and arrive at the
same conclusions reached by
football coaches"

DETROIT TIGERS
FOOL THE BABES
LEAGUE ASTROLOCYi
Ruth "Can't See En-" in
! First Division Despite
Great Start-Cubs Lead
National
By JACK CUDDY

A1J OAOh OOOOI
UNITED Press STAR Correspondent
Babe Ruth is doubly pleased now
that the Detroit Tigers have
dropped into second place in the
American league, permitting the
weather man to boost the New
York Yankees into first position.
Every time the Tigers lose a
game, the big fellow heaves a
mighty sigh of relief. He's not
afraid they'll beat the Yankees,
but they've been threatening his
reputation as prognosticator.
In his preseason selections, he
picked the Tigers to finish sixth in
the league. He hopes they'll fall
into line as soon as possible so
that no one will point the finger
Of scorn at his predictions.
Says George
"Oh, know they can't take it,"
his hearty voice treasured over
the telephone last night. ''They.
can't take 1t when they stack up
against strong eastern teams.
That's where the power is this sea-
son-in the east.
But just the same" he amend
ed slowly, II was sort of relieved
when they lost to Chicago to-day.
And I'll be more satisfied when
they slide down a little further.
You know what mean"
He believes the Tigers average
too much youth to make much of
a showing this year, despite their
whirlwind start. He's certain they
won't finish in first division. The
first three places. he claims, will
be occupied by the Yankees, Sem
ators and Athletics, in the order
named.
More Hard Luck
The Babe said he was not sure
he would be able to perform at
Yankee stadium against the Bos-
ton Red Sox to-day. He had a
touch of water On the knee from
humping into the right field
bleacher fence Tuesday when he
chased a long fly.
Detroit dropped into second
place yesterday when the Tigers
succumbed to to the Chicago
White Sox. The Sox won in spite
of their six errors. Excellent re-
lief pitching by Irving Hadley
contributed to the victory.
The Cleveland Indians defeated
the st Louis Browns, to 1, aided
by Yves Ferrelrs excellent pitch
ing.
Washington and New York and
Boston at Philadelphia were
frozen out.
Nice Work
In the National league, the Chi
cago Cubs celebrated Rogers
Hornsby's seth birthday by jump
ing into the league lead after
beating the Pittsburg Pirates, to
4. The Braves, who had been tied
with the Cubs in first place, re-
manned idle at Boston as their
game with the New York Giants
was frozen out.
The Cincinnati Reds beat the st
Louis Cardinals, to 4, halting the
Reds losing streak of five straight
games. The defeat dropped the
Cards to sixth place, while the
Reds moved up to fifth.
No other games was sched-
uled.

MOTOR TAXES AND ROAD
USERS

There is an increasing tend
ency for road users to pay a
larger proportion of the cost OF
highways in the United States,
although the total income from
motor vehicle license taxes and
fees and from the motor feul
tax supplied less than half OF
aggregate state and local rural
highway income in 1880, &C
cording to a study by the Ma
tional Industrial Conference
Board.
The study was undertaken
because the rapid development
i of motor vehicle tranSporta-
ton has precipitated numerous
problems affecting the taxpay-
er, the board said. The report
analyses the problems of mo-
tor vehicle taxation, highway
financing and administration,
and coordination of rail and
motor vehicle transportation.
Every state levies a motor
fuel tax, according to the re-
port. The laws of Is states
provide that all proceeds of the
motor fuel tax shall be retain
ed by the state and expended
for state highway purposes,
while in the remaining states
receipts are divided between
state and local governments in
varying proportion.
"The percentage of rural
state highway income derived
from the special motor vehicle
taxes" the report says, sis
particularly significant in the
light of the present controver-
sy between competing trans
portation agencies. Whether
trucks and buses competing
with railroad and other trans
pOrtation agencies are paying
their just share toward the
cost of the highways over
which they operate is at pres
ent an open question
