MIDDIES CAUTIONED
AGAINST COCKINESS
Must Expect Stronger Opposition
Than From W. & L., Coach
Warns-Ohio Next.

4 NNAPOLIS, Md, october 11.-Naval
"A Academy foot ball players today
were warned by Rip Miller, head
coach, not to be overconfdent on ac-
count of the decisive victory over Wash
ington and Lee Saturday, but to expect
far sitter opposition from teams that
are before them, beginning with Ohio
University here next Saturday.
Frank Foster, assistant coach, who
has been scouting the Ohioians corrob-
crates the reports Of strength that have
been coming from Athens. He states
that Ohio has strong, well-rounded
team in every department, with great
running backs in Joe Sintic and Harold
Brown, AMI a remarkable end in Collins.
While these are stars, the team is well
balanced, Foster said, and the Navy
may expect far harder opposition than
in the games played so far.
Miller yesterday kept his regulars in
side for a large portion Of the practice
period, going over the faults of Satur-
day and outlining the preparatory work
of Tho week. For a short time, however,
they were on the field doing some kick
ing and passing.
Several substitutes, notably Clark and
Berries, halfbacks, and Dornin, end, did
such good work Saturday that they will
be given further opportunities. This is
particularly true of Clark, whose run
ming, passing and kicking stamped him
as only second to Chung-Hoon among
the Navy backs this season.

FIRST HARD GAME
FOR BOTH TEAMS
Undefeated Year Would Give
Either Claim to Mythical
Championship.
BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
n 1EW YORK, October 1.-Two
M of the East's major foot
/ Y ball powers, Pittsburgh and
Army, are paired of in a
duel at West Point Saturday that
should go far toward determining
whether either can be reckoned
a contender for the mythical
national championship.
Both are tackling schedules so diff
cult that an undefeated season clearly
would entitle them to consideration
when national honors are passed out.
Pitt, beaten only by Notre Dame
last year and considered on a par with
any eleven in the East, apparently has
another brilliant array featuring the
speedy halfbacks, Warren Heller and
Paul Reider. The Panthers already
have trounced Ohio Northern by At
points, West Virginia by 40 and
Duquesne by 80 without permitting any
OF their opponents to score. but now
face the prospect Of seven hard-bitten
rivals in a row. Army, Ohio State,
Notre Dame, Penn, Nebraska, Carnegie
Tech and Stanford.
nITTS weakness, if any, lies in line
L shattered by the graduation Of
most of the stalwarts who made
the Panthers so rugged defensive out
fit last year. But Coach Jock Suther-
land long has been known as a fash
ioner of air-tight forward walls and
his linemen have performed right up
to the Sutherland standard so far this
year.
Army has lost great back in Ray
Stecker but Mai. Ralph I. Sasse has
plenty Of backfield talent to choose from
among Ken Fields, Tom Kilday Roland
Elliott, Felix Vidal. Paul johnson. Travis
Brown. Bill Frentzel and Joe MacWil-
liam. The Cadets were unimpressive in
their opening 1870 victory over Furman,
but turned in smooth performance
against Carleton last week to win, $40.
After the Pitt game. Army will play
Yale. William and Mary, Harvard. North
Dakota State, West Virginia wesleyan,
Notre Dame and Navy on successive
Saturdays. =
nITT walloped the Cadets last year,
L 26-0. but there is every prospect
of close, hard-fought action this
time
At least twoothers of the East's un-
defeated and united teams are certain
to wind up on Saturday with spoiled
record. for New York University and
Georgetown will battle in the Yankee
| Stadium and Dartmouth and Pennsyl-
vania will clash at Philadelphia. None
of these has been checked yet. Brown
and Yale, both undefeated, will meet in
the Yale Bowl, but Yale. although it
has escaped defeat, already has been
twice tied, by Bates and Chicago.
Other interesting trays are in pros
pect between Princeton and Cornell
Lafayette and Colgate, Carnegie Tech
and Washington and Jefferson, Column
bia and Virginia, Navy and Ohio Uni
versity, perhaps the strongest OF the
Buckeye Conference outfits; Holy Cross
and Detroit and Syracuse and South

DUKE At ITS BEST
AGAINST MARYLAND
Return of Laney Gives Team
Full Offensive Power.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
~ URBAN, N. c., October IL
with Nick Laney. the flashy
J triple-threat halfback, in the
lineup again, and Robert
(Our Bob) Cox firmly established as a
INCREASING expert, the Blue Devils
of Duke will be able to muster full
offensive strength against Maryland at
Duke Stadium Saturday afternoon.
The absence of Laney from the team
in the game with Auburn was felt by
the Blue Devils. 1t was thought during
the week previous to the contest that
he might be able to play but the severe
charley-horse he sustained in Dukes
great triumph over v. M. l., in which
he was the outstanding star, forced
him to stay on the sidelines Saturday
save for few minutes in each half.
COPHOMORE FULLBACK COX ap-
- pears to be another of the great
line crashers Duke has put out in
the last few years. He seems to have
all the side-stepping and Hole Con-
scious" ability of the brilliant Jan
Jankosh of the 1927 and 1928 teams
and also the drive Of that cracking full
back Of the past three years, Kid
Brewer.
After a great showing against David
son In the opener, Cox went into the
v. M. I. game and drove through their
line for a touchdown and then last
Saturday against Auburn gained more
ground from the line of scrimmage than
any other back on the field, including
the wonderful Hitchcock and the
speedy Kimbrell. He Is expected to be
one Of the greatest backs in Duke his
tory.
IT will be the alumni homecoming
i day game Saturday and former
students who gather at the Stadium
will see band of Blue Devils who will
fight until the last minute and who
may yet turn out to be one Of the best
teams in Duke history. Where many
teams would have folded up last Sat-
urday, after having seen two breaks
and two penalties result in two touch
downs in five minutes, the Blue Devils
fought back all the way and in the
third quarter were apparently on their
way to a victory until Hitchcock
started his extraordinary punting.

MEET AIRY Stone. Never heard
1V1 of him? Well, perhaps you'll
remember him as Harry, one
time pride of the Ghetto of New
York. Yes, it's been a long time
since Harry was seen in an Ameri-
can ring, but when he was in his
prime he was recognized as one Of
the leading eXponents of the manly
art in America. In fact, he was
r"ted a second ABB Attell, in whose
class he did the bulk of his COM
pcrIti0n.
Today Harry is an honored men,
ber of the pugilistic circle of Aus
tralia, where he has lived for many
years, and where he now handles
several good boxers, occasionally
referees and often promotes shows.
Until a few years ago Harry was
pretty active as fighter.
Harry was born on the lower East
Side of New York on March 4, 1889,
1908. From that time until the lat
ter part of 1915 he met some of the
greatest feathsrweights and light
weights in this country and in Aus
tralia, Leach Cross, Abe Attell, Jack
Britton and Jack Dorman among
them. He went on world tour in
1913 and 1914, which carried him
through Australia and England,
after which he returned to his ma
tive land. only to leave for Aus
tralia again in 1916. He has been
there since and has become a resi-
dent of Sydney.
Two, years ago Harry wrote the
story Of his life, an interesting book
that had a fine sale in his adopted
country.

Alabama are still in front down South,
with Tulane in the lead at this spot.
The Green Wave carries slashing at

Hagen Again.
DABE RUTH isn't the only athlete
ID nearing 40 with 20-year record
who has enjoyed a pleasant Autumn.
When Walter Hagen took charge OF the
st. Louis open with 69-65 he turned
in one of the best jobs of his life. When
YOU are a number of strokes back OF
strong field and can then win with nVe
strokes to spare, no durable chronlcler
is needed to suggest what took place.
Hagen has been counted out OF the
picture more than once. He mace MS
first slash at fame back in 1918, When
Ouimet stopped Vardon and Ray. rev
know that Hagen, only 20 years old,
had a chance that year to win WIN
only seven holes to CO. He came BACK
with a rush in 1914 to win the Unlteo
States open, the first of his long line OF
successful marches. He packed that
title away more than 18 years ago ana
vet here he is again with finlshng
squirt of 69-65. leaving par practically
out of shape-little more than deor1s.
Base Balls Best Golfer.
WYE we're called in to help Babe Ruth
w pry open his golf season day or
two ago, and the Babe countered
by bringing Sammy Byrd along. The
Babes golf has improved amazingly IN
the last few years. He has cut his way
as far down the scoring zone as 70,
with a number of It's and 72's over
hard courses.
But Sammy Byrd, the Yankee out
fielder from Birmingham, tops all the
ball-playing golfers. Tommy Armour
told me that if Byrd could devote his
time to golf exclusively Tor two years
he would be the most dangerous single
entry in United States open.
Byrd has been as low as 66 on
championship course. He is one of the
longest hitters I ever have seen, with
a smooth, swinging style, which has q
terrific lash at the moment OF impact.
He is a fine iron player and q sound
putter
Babe and Byrd can crowd any pair
Of long-driving professionals when 1t
comes to clearing many yards OF ter
rain. Sammy is longer than the Babe.
but the Babe doesn't carry a golf ball
with feather duster.
Ruth is almost as keen about golf as
he IS about base ball. He will be out
there in rain and snow and cutting
Winter winds at every chance until he
heads south around February /. No
brand of weather can lay him stymie
when he has a chance to get outdoors.

"H1S Is an extremely pleasant time
Of the year for two old friends.
Their names are George AIDE of
Purdue and Hurry Up Yost OF
Michigan.
Mr.. Ade graduated from Purdue more
than 40 years ago and not minute
has passed since when the Hoosier mas
ter was not deeply interested in the
old alma mater. More than ever in
the foot ball season.
Mr.. Yost gave Michigan its first or
at least its greatest foot ball fame just
80 years ago. He helped give Michigan
a four-year record, which still is one
Of the lofty peaks of foot ball accom-
plishment.
So when Purdue beat a strong Mimi
esota team Saturday while Michigan
was stopping Northwestern, Is to 6, you
can easily understand how Messrs. Ade
and Yost felt about it all.
Minnesota and Northwestern are two
pretty high hurdles for any early Oc-
tober date. They are hard trenches to
take, even with high explosives and the
bayonet combined. The accomplishment
means that Purdue and Michigan now
take the lead in one Of the hottest,
hardest conference championships seen
in many years.
While Purdue is exceptionally good,
there is strong chance that Michigan
will finish the season with one OF the
best records of the year. They have a
lot of high-class stuff operating under
that banner of Maize and Blue. 1t will
take quite a foot ball team to crack
lineup that can score Al points against
Michigan State and Northwestern.

ties early in October is a much
harder job than trying to pick pennant
winners in March. And last March

Only they didn't-with something to
spare.
In the East, Pittsburgh and Columbia
have shown much stuff thus far, and
they will continue to show a loft OF
stuff most Of the year. And you can
keep an eye on Fordham and Holy
Cross.

CONTEST A PUZZLE
Neither Coach Optimistic
Over Outcome of Opening
Series Game.
YEITHER Bert Coggins, coach O

NIE1THER Bert cossins' coach of
nj the Central foot ball eleven,
" nor Dan Ahern, who tutors
Western, today was willing to
venture prediction as to the outcome
of the game between the teams Friday
afternoon in Central Stadium The
battle. starting at $50 o'clock, will
open play in the public high school
championship series.
Both Central and Western unde-
niably have some high-class players,
but the work OF both teams has been
erratic.
COGGINS' proteges have won only
~ one pre-series game, conquering
st. Johns to 6, but have shown
strength in various other contests, par
ticularly when Bert used flrst-stringers
The Central mentor is said to care little
whether the team wins pre-series
games, and this seems true in view Of
the liberal use he has made of reserves.
Western has taken both the contests
it has played, but Coach Ahern refuses
to be optimistic. He says his team has
a long way to 60 yet before he will be
satisfied. He particularly laments the
absence of a passer or kicker Of real
class.
COME fans here were inclined to view
y Westerns 1877 win over Newport
News High Saturday as sure in
dication that the Georgetowners have
a formidable eleven, but Ahern says the
Virginians were unimpressivc and Tech
doubtless could have beaten them by
40 points.
So there's the situation. NeitfV
coach is optimistic. so neither can be
disappointed Friday.
Western really would relish win
over Central. as the Columbia Heights
school has triumphed in a great ma
jority of the games between the teams
in recent years. Western was victo-
rious last Fall 13 to 0. but Central was
the winner the four previous years.
