Shy Over Hobby
Even though a little shy about
his hobby to read, Moe admits it's
one Of the things he enjoys most
in life besides playing baseball.
His fellow players respect his
hobby, but can't help but kid him
on the side-keeping in mind all
the while that Moe is truly a
great guy and q. pretty fair
catcher behind that bat in the
pinch.
Since being with the Washing
ton club, Moe has gotten a nick
name, as most all player do. It's
"Winchell'' after the pattern Of
Walter Winchell because Moe
seemingly reads all and knows all.
An interesting chap, this Moe
Berg, and a guy who helps to
make the Washington club the
unusual club it is this year.

Just a Suggestion

For their own progress, for the general good of the game and the public who patronize it every Sat urday, would it not be much bet ter if college football teams were classified right from the first game, to prevent 56-0 scores such as have been rolled up when college foot ball team opens with an opponent with one-third its ability, knows it will win, with the number of points the only uncertainty. In Connecticut for example, small coll leges like Trinity, Wesleyan, Con- necticut State and others should combine to play one another and out of state opponents of equal ability, while nationally an A-B-C classification would prevent South ern California meeting Santa Clara, Yale meeting Bates and Harvard gainst New Hampshire, for in stance. Yale is cutting out the warming up" business of its own accord, opening next year with Co., lumbia and following with Penn sylvania, Brown, Army, Dartmouth, Georgia, Harvard and Princeton in that order. suppose the larger colleges pick those "warm-up" games in lieu of the rule on Sep tember 15 football practice. Yet, if the players took their practice to heart individually, during the late summer and early fall, they would be ready for action in the three weeks hard training before the opening game. Watching a team roll up 56 points while holding its opponent scoreless is like iInagin- ing Goliath squash David with his little finger.

 As a result, when the managers of prospective teams meet at the Y. M. c. A. Friday night at 8 o'clock with Physical Director Charley Leader, the ultimate re- suit is expected to be an eight team circuit that will assure plenty of interest and attendance right from the start of the season, which will get under way for the Dusty Leaguers November 14th.
 Milky Makeup
 Harry X. Cashin, or his aide dc camp, will be on hand to suggest a Worden basketball team for the loop and with Sonny Cornell, Jim Tracy, Charley Lewis, Joe Swasey, and Paddy Quilter now employed with milk, it's a sure bet that the Warden team will be more than just a new entry in the plan of things. Then they tell me. Ber- nie Garrick's U. s. Rubber Com pany team of Naugatuck is keenly interested, and with practically the entire Emerald team of the City League t ocall upon, the borough entry will add class to the circuit. They won a state tourna- ment in Meriden last year and have a team as good as any in Water- bury.
 Sturdy HO0pmen
 In addition, Alex Mazzarella and John Dunn are working for the American Brass Company, Harold Maloney, Jimmy Crichton and Billy Donahue are Chase Brassers, while the Scovill. Clock, Paper Boxers, and Beardsley-Wolcott Company will take care of them- selves in the matter of good base ketball team. In fact, the league looks so good on paper, that the boys may go back to playing twice a week and split-season program, with the winners playing a two out of three series for the champion ship.

O'HARA APPROVED OFFICIAL FOR
 NATIONAL LOOP
Popular Professional Man Gets 0. K. From Carr as
 Football Arbiter

Though the professional football season is well under way, and of ficials for the various games of the National Football League already signed, Dr Bernard A. O'Hara of this city, member of the Central Board of Approved Football Off, ficials of Connecticut, has receiv- ed notification from Joe F. Carr, president of the league, that his nam8 has been added to the ap- proved list of officials subject, to call for games in which the twelve clubs in the circuit take part once or twice 9 week.
 Liked By Way
 Recommendation of his work from, Lud Wray. coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, whose team defeated the now ill-fated Bridge port combination in, night game at Newfield Park three weeks ago, an added boost from Tim Mara, president of the New York Giants football club, was responsible for Dr O'Hara's selection as an ap- proved league official. At Bridge port, the well-known dentist work ed as referee, the Philadelphia team winning the contest 13-0 against an array of former grid stars that included Jim Murphy of Fordham, Linehan and Loeser of Yale. Marty Brill of Notre Dame, Sam Cordovano of Columbia and others.
 Word From Carr
 In relation to his appointment, President Carr wrote Dr O'Hara: "As you are probably aware, I have quite 8 number of officials in the east, whose service has always been satisfactory, and who have already been assigned to league games for the season. However, I have placed your name on my ap- proved list and you may be sure when the opportunity presents it. self this season, will call on you for work, if at all possible" MT Carr, a former newspaperman, has headed the National Football league for many years, because of the success of his administration of league matters, as we'll as execu- tive and personal devotion to the sport.
 pr O'Hara has been a football official in Connecticut for several years, having already done con- siderable high school work this season. He is a brother of Dr M. A. O'Hara, president of the Connecti- cut Football Officials Association.

From Both Angles

Harry Newman's intelligent discussion of professional yer- sus college football as. carried elsewhere on this page, Is pointedly interesting to ail concerned and that iclundes the fans who :.pay the freight" For many years, the average professional football player was looked upon as just a working athlete in the same sense as one might cDn- slider a plumber, carpenter, bricklayer or anyone whose prime objective Is the best days pay he can get. When Newman, all-America quarter back from Michigan last year, says that, in his opinion the "old college try'' is more eyi- dent on professional gridirons this year than within college stadiums and when he gives you the reason therefore, its'S logic is marked ideed. Good pay plus the element of pride by each man in his own work, realizing he is in "fast com pany" plus the fact that any- one who slips very much can be readily replaced by . play CT from a large waiting list, keeps the pro gridders lon their toes" every minute. When passes arc made they are good passes and general ly caught, kicks are something to cheer about, and the crack of the tackles can be heard quite easily. The college boys have been lulled to sleep amid a cOtiere of trainers, coaches, alumni advisers and alleged pals, which results in their work, as 8 class, being completely mediocre.

 United Press Stan Correspondent
 New York, Oct 17-(UP)-Our own football roundup: To hear Dick Hyland tell it, Stanford hasn't a back who can throw pass so much as 20 yards and know where on earth it's going to land. If there was any proof needed that pro football was on the level, it was provided in that 50 to Q trouncing handed the Philly Eagles by, the New York Giants. If the boys were thinking of next weeks gate they wouldn't run up that sort of score. Michigan.s rout of Cornell, Vanderbilt's hand cnffing by Ohio State, and stan ford's inability to defeat 8 previ- ously defeated Northwestern team would indicate that most of the class in 1888 football islin the mid- dle west.
 Coach Greasy Neagle, whose West Virginia eleven lost to Pitts burgh and Fordham on successive Saturdays, is of the opinion that the men of the Monagahela would take the New Workers by two touchdowns at least. Greasy thinks Fordham has the edge of the Partners in but one department passing. Speaking of West Virginia, the Mountaineers have a halfback in George Allen who would go places and see many things if he had line in front of him. When Virginia left Char lottesville to meet Ohio States rock -crusher several weeks ago, Coach Dawson picked "A men and told three others to flip a coin to see who'd be the twenty-fifth. :. The man was Gene Munger, substi- tute quarterback. and it was Nun ger who starred against the Buck eyes, and Columbia last week. When they award the hard luck prize at the end of the season, who will complain if it's handed to Slip
 Madigan of St Mary's? Last year an inadvertent substitution
 cost St Mary's victory against Cali l fornia. Saturday, with the score tied at 7-7, Slip made a substitution when Southern California had the ball on the Gaels' 23-yard line. The substitute talked before a play had been run, and the 15-yard penalty that followed paved the way for the winning score. .. Michigan may be counted on to develop at least one shining star a year. :. Last year it was Harry Newman
 Now it's Everhardus, whose three touchdowns aided in Cornell's downfall. Rip Miller. whose Navy team was showed under by Pittsburgh, can't see the Partners losing a game all season. The Pitt line, Rip says, is a thing of beauty, and the backs have what 1t takes.
 Yale can't understand why John Kilcullen, heavyweight boxer, can't play tackle any better than he does.

MiddIeweight Title Bout Looks Like Thriller for
 Boston Bout
fspecial to The Democrat,

Boston, Oct. 16.-Edward c. Foster, president of the National Boxing association, yesterday set his official seal upon the worlds championship match between Lou Brouillard and Vince Dundee, scheduled for Boston Garden on Monday, October 30th, thus con- frming the sanction already given the match by the boxing commits sions of New York and Massacllu- settss
 Our association has already recognized Brouillard as the worlds middleweight champion" declared Commissioner Foster, land as Dundee's splendid record of the past three or four years tamsp him a an, outstanding contender, have no hesitation in approving the bout"
 The match seems likely to pro- duce one of the greatest fights of the year, the superb boxing ability of Dundee contrasting splendidly against the strength, ruggedness and hard-hitting of Brodillard. I intend leading a large party from my home state to witness the bout and want to congratulate the management of Boston Garden, not only upon arranging such match but at setting such very nominal scale of admission prices. Boxing needs this kind of intelli- gent understanding"

Alley HowIs

The Putsic Friars started in to find the pins again and took over and U & Is for two games. Rozum, Despins and Saganor were the strong cave men this week rolling over BIO. Rozum hit them for a row of $50.
 The U & Is were sadly handi- capped by the absence of Iron Man Valechko, but most of their men were off form except smiling Tom my Hughes, taciturn Griffin.
 The Y-Nots led by Andrews, Dutch veillette, and ole Falzone with respective scores of 354, 331 and 329, took the Theta's who have not seemed to have found themselves as yet. Moulthrope, Kreiger, Moran and MacIntosh knocked them for 300; but with aReburyn not being any way near his form they dropped two. The Beaus are still in the lead having taken the Speed Boys for a nice sleigh-ride. The Speed-B Boys came back but the steady punching of o. Shatas, Snyder, Goodwin and Bob Hamel rolled up too many points to overcome.
 The Rangers are beginning to hit their last years form, and took over the hard hitting Cwoans for two games. Every one of the men on both teams hit we'll over 399 and Aquarino of the Rangers and the nudist advocate, Bares of the Cwoans tied for high three honors of 355.
 If the Rangers and Cwoans keep up the kind of rolling they did this last week they will be up in front before very long. Coppolo of the Rangers is still the most consistent bowler in the league and now leads with high average.
 There seems to be more interest and pep in the league this year and as soon as all the boys begin to get the feel'o the alleys (behind the foul line) under their feet, the teams will ke rather evenly matched and the last round will see a whale of a scrap for high honors.
