BOWLERS KEEP
BALL ROLLING

No individual records were
broken in last nights attack on
duckpins, but good scores con-
tinue to ooze.
Herbie Kashub rolling in the
Federal League banged out a 100
game, while Gene Hargett gar
nered a 1856 set. The Odd Eel
lows League was not idle either,
Chalmers Croft pounding out a
las which gave him a 379 set.
Reid established a new league
record game of 1876 as he grabbed
himself a 1853 set in the Sanico
League. Hess Of Rhode Island
Avenue, No. /, In the Methodist
Protestant Church League, picked
the pins for a 1875 game, and Tate
took high set honors with a 377
set. The Rhode Island No. team
has lost but one game so far.
The King Pin team Of the
Ladies District League will have
to get itself another world record
now as Recreation Girls Of Balti-
more, United States Ladies League
champions, eclipSed the old mark
by 46 pins, with a 1852 count.
The King Pin Ladies set the rec
ord two years ago.

Jim Lyons, recently.
At an opportune moment
asked him:
"Jim. what has football
meant to you other than win
ming or lOSing?"
Lyons, ever quick witted and
possessed of a ready answer, re-
piled in effect:
"Well, Dutch, it's taught me
q great lesson. For one thing
it develops loyalty. And again
it emphasizes unSelfiShnesS.
1--WE learned just as many
valuable lessons out there on
the gridirOn as I have in the
classroom. Footballs been q
valuable education for me-"
That's one of the greatest
kicks a coach gets out of his
job. Turning out kids Of the
Jim Lyons stripe who broaden
themselves through experience.

Feathers Grid
Record Is Best
Since Thorpe

It will be rather difficult for ALL
America boards to keep Beattie
Feathers, Tennessee star, from a
position on this years mythical.
eleven.
During his three years Of varsity
competition, Feathers has carried
the ball 252 times for gains total.
ing 1914 yards. He has punted 181
times for a total of 7,640 yards.
Averages 7.2 Yards
Thus it may be seen that Fea-
theirs averaged 70 yards per try
carrying the ball and 42.2 yards
per try punting the ball. This is
the greatest record in football
since Jim Thorpe, the big In
dian" of Carlisle. Incidentally,
Feathers is part Indian.
With the exception of the 1888
has averaged a touchdown per
game. His performance of last
Saturday, against Vanderbilt, is
one of the greatest ever offered
by football player.
One OF Greatest
That performance alone entities
the successor to Jim Thorpe to
recognition as one Of the greatest
backs in America, if not the
greatest.
Feathers is one Of the few back
field men Of 1888 who has done
everything that is possible to do
on a football field. If ever there
has been, or is, an All-America
football player, Beattie Feathers is
that man.

EAGLESFACE.
SEASON WITH
GREEN TEAM

Determined to build a basket
BAN team that will equal the
Eagle quint which conquered %
formidable foes in the last two
campaigns, and last season scored
494 points to win 10 out Of the
IS games played, Coach Walter n.
Young is holding long practice
sessions daily in the American
University gym.
With the graduation exercises
last June removing Sells, Dick
John and Glad Williams and
"Hoke" Targee, Young is faced
with a task similar to that which
greeted him four years ago, when
he returned from the Christmas
holiday to discover his entire first
string five had been declared in
eligible because Of an unofficial
contest played during the vacation
period.
Only Two Back
Scotty Champion and Hal
Sampson are the only two men in
uniform this year who saw service
with the Eagles last winter. It
b probable that the youthful
mentor will build his new quint
around the proven abilities Of
these two men.
Young has 18 candidates eager
to replace the aggregation which
trounced such teams as Navy,
Catholic University, st. Johns Col
lege, of Annapolis, and various
teams in the Chesapeake Cole
gate Conference. Thirteen are
either freshmen or sophomores,
and eight had the benefit of spe-
Cial training last spring.
A basketball system, just as
pronounced as the Warner or
Notre Dame methods of football,
has been developed at American
BY Young.
No Big Stars
Beginning without any out
standing stars, the coach worked
out a five-man system of offense
which has baffled the best efforts
Of enemy quints. For this season,
he has made some minor changes
In method, calculated to discomfit
any opponents who might be be-
Coming familiar with the original
style Of play.

70 make any definite predictions
Is to the quality of play which
will be demonstrated in the first
game Of the season, which is
scheduled for December 10 with
Maryland State Normal as the op-
ponent. How well the newcomers
can put into execution Young's
careful plans remains to be seen.
The material he has to develop
this year is no better and no worse
than that which proved a winning
combination before.
Tired of being doormatS in Dis
trict athletic circles, it is certain
that the Eagles will fight hard to
achieve a worthwhile record on
the floor. Another 15.game SEIZED
ule will afford them ample OPP
portunity to test their ability.

Few oratorical utterances,
however mighty, could drown
the sound of Crockett reading
off the laws and letters that

The great voice was stilled,
though, on one occasion when
John was in most need of it.
And all because he uses to-
bacco in other than the smok-

John isa'a past official in a

Smith met his nemesis last
