He said:

WEIGHT ONLY
WORRY Of
Titles

TUCSON, Ariz., Dec. 28.-There
must be something in this West
ern climate that breeds confidence
in oneself, unused Lou Little, coach
OF the Columbia football team to-
day, as he drove his football war
riors through another long drill.
Said Lou:
1--WE in the East are used to
the advance predictions of VIC
tory coming from California,
and now my own team seems
to have imbibed the spirit. My
boys feel they are going to
cause quite an upset when they
tackle Stanford in the Rose
Bowl New Year Day. I only
hope they are right"
Weight Is Worry
Titles chief worry today was
the weight Of his players. Sew
eral of them, notably Quarter.
back Cliff Montgomery, were
underweight when they arrived
here. but playing in the evening,
as they did yesterday, the boys
avoided the heat and regained
some of their lost poundage.
To a neutral observer it would
appear that Little has his charges
as fit as any team that ever trod
a gridiron. He says they can all
go so minutes, barring accidents.
and this may be the factor that
will decide the issue.
Columbia's first team, although
far lighter than its Stanford rivals.
is capable of giving any team a
battle, and if it can play the whole
game with but a few replace"
ments, Arizona to a man Is COM
WINGED the game will be no push.
over and Stanford will have its
hands full.
Cliff Is Confident
Ca. ain Montgomery is bub-
b.ng over with confidence. Said
Cliff:
"Anybody who thinks STAN
ford is going to shove us around
- due for a shock. We have
been 0utweighed in many of our
games and it will therefore be
no novelty when we meet this
team of so-called Supermen. We
may lose, but Stanford will
surely know they've been in a
real battle before we're through"
Columbia will take its last work"
out Saturday morning and slip
into Pasadena as quietly as pos
sible Sunday to rest up for the
game the following day.

P|NMEN Of

By GINO SINH

When Italian and Jewish bowl
ers clash in their international
war tonight at Convention Hall,
starting at 1880, they will parade
galaxy of champions.
Each lineup will boast one for
mer Howard Campbell Sweep
stakes winner. Make Rosenberg
won that honor in 1880 and Tony
Santini clapped that coveted
crown on his brow in 1882.
Ollie Pacini, twice No. / ranking
plnman of the U. S., was the first
Washington Times Dixie Sweep
stakes king and is three times
winner of the Italian crown. Ee
is also the defending title-holder
in the current Evening Star tour
nament.
Joe Freschi won the Washing
ton City Duckpin Association
singles championship last year and
Joe Pricci, who holds the world
record set, 497, annexed the Mary
land Sweepstakes in 1881. Boo
Miciotto was runner-up to Pricci
in that event.
Finished Third
"Doc" Pickus, one Of the Bal
timoreans who will appear on the
Jewish squad, finished third in
the Washington Times Dixie
Sweepstakes this year with 1908
total, despite an SO game as a
starter. It was a marvellous dis
play of grit.
Meye- Jacobson, another Oriole
Hebrew ace, though he has won
no titles, has a knack for rolling
powerful sets. Recently he rolled
GIT in {. special match at Martins
burg. Ray FuXman, still an
other Baltimorean, is averaging
100 in the Baltimore major
league.
Sam Simon has been stellar
performer in local league compe-
tition for several years. Last year
he attracted wide attention for
his ability to chalk up 400" sets.
Dave Legum, one of the Jewish
reserves, has also made himself
conspicuous by his fine bowling IN
past years.

notable things on the drives.

GRID COACHES
END SESSIONS
FOR YEAR

CHICAGO, Dec. 28.-That foot
ballish atmosphere that had held
sway here for the past few days
faded somewhat today as mem
bers Of the American Football
Coaches Association departed for
their homes after the two-day ses-
sion.
The gathering wound up last
night with a banquet at which wit
and humor prevailed to a surpris-
ing extent among the boys who
usually belnoan their fate. A
little business was transacted, but
not much, since the two-day meet
ing had given them time to do
and say almost anything that had
to be done or said.
Many of the coaches remained
here to attend the three other
meetings in which college athletics
are to be gone over from an ad-
n n S n a tive and educational
standpoint.
The first of these is the college
Of Physical Education Association,
made up mainly Of physical direc-
tors, which opened today. Tomor.
row the National Collegiate Ath-
letic Association and the Student
Health Association will gathes>>
The N. c. A. A. session will be
an important one, it was agreed,
since this group more or less sets
the trend and fashion for college
athletics.
In addition to various matters
of business the selection of the
football rules committee for the
coming year and the reports Of va.
rious committees, including that of
Walter Okeson, chairman Of the
rules body, will be heard.

\. !. GOVERNOR
WAN is LEGAL
RACE BETTING
BY DAVIS J. WALSH

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-Racing
in New York State, where the law
now says by implication that you
are unable to lose money on the
horses, is going in for gumption
with the turn of the year and will
legalize open betting in time for
the spring meetings on metropoli
tan tracks.
Maybe these disclosures lack
the element of novelty.
If so, these do not:
If the legislature passes a racing
bill, I am credibly told that Gov
ernor Lehman will sign it. II the
legislature doesn't, the governor
may then take what steps seem
necessary to bring reason out Of
profound folly. This isn't neces-
sarily an attempt to present a di.
rect line on Mr.. Lehman's views.
One does not have to go all the
way to Albany to find out that the
governor is against folly.
OF course, folly is a compare.
tive term, especially when applied
to anything that happens at a
race track but, since there is none
so great as that which states that
it doesn't happen because the law
says it can't. The State of New
York is about to choose the lesser
Of two follies.
Greater Revenue
Perhaps it's only a coincidence,
but it's also the greater Of any
two revenues the field Of sport
can present.
That, by the way, was the
argument they were using at this
time last year when it seemed
that a bill was to be passed at
Albany just as soon as they got
around to it. Unfortunately, they
never did, with the result that
the matter died in committee and
so, practically, did the business
known as "oral betting"
Anyhow, the project was being
sponsored at that time by Mr..
Joseph E. Widener. the blue
blood. and this turned out to be
unfortunate, because at that time
anything Mr.. Widener wanted
Mr.. Bill Dryer didn't.
Mr.. Widener is now Joe to Mr..
Dwyer, or Bill, and Mr.. Dryer is
Bill to Mr.. Widener, or Joe, and
everything is just splendid.

After graduating from Prince
ton, Mccormick was assistant
coach there with the late Bill
Roper, and also coached the
famous Quantico Marine eleven
that suffered only one setback
in two years. That was to
Michigan at Ann Arbor, when a
fellow named Harry Kipke was
doing the kicking.
"That probably was the long.
est football game on record"
said Jim. "The timekeeper must
have had q bum watch for we
played exactly so minutes in
the first half. Finally, both
George Little, who was coach
ing Michigan then, and 1
started out on the field to pro-
test, but officials drove US off.
/ guess they wanted customers
to get their moneys worth. I
could never figure out any other
reason.
But the only trouble I ever
had with those Marines was in
keeping them in chewing TO-
bacco. Adult every 10 minutes
while we were practicing, one
of 'em would say: "COach,
gimme a chew" I had to carry
q plug in both hip pockets and
sometimes even that wouldn't
run us through a long practice
session. OF course, / used to
take a little nibble of it myself
now and then"
The Wait For Coy
"The length of that first half
ut Ann ArbOr," continued Jim,
"always reminded me of the
wait we had between halves for
Coy's team in 1908. We were
leading Yale, 10 to 0, at the half
and, as 1 recall there was sup
posed to be q 1O-minute inter-
mission.
1--WE we're back on the field in
the prescribed time, at any
rate, but there was no sign Of
Yale. We waited and we waited
and still they didn't show up.
Finally the referee went to look
for them. But ne couldn't find
'em. In those days we used to
dress under the stands. 1t was
exactly 80 minutes before they
showed up to resume the game
and all that time they had been
resting Coy.
"He showed it in that last
half. He was just like trying to
grab a cannon ball. But even
at that, he finally had to throw
O fluke forward pass to Beau
Olcott to beat us, IL to 10. After
that they put a penalty in the
rules for delaying the game.
"And it was what we did to
the pass receivers of Pop War
ner's Carlisle Indian team that
led to the rule about interfering
with the receiver. We'd let them
get down there and be just about
ready to catch the bali and then
we'd crack 'em. 1t was out and
out murder, as they would ma
turally be off balance and twist
ed around to make the catch
when we crashed into 'em.
II remember once in the Polo
Grounds, when / was captain,
Roper sent me out to call Elk
endine some pretty names on the
toss for goals before the game.
Our trainer used to give US a
half q tumberful of brandy on
bad days, and / took an extra
large portion and kept repeating
over to myself what Bill had
told me to say.
81 also took my time going
out to the middle Of the field,
and when / did start Exendine
came to me at the half way and,
boy, the names he called me be-
fore we got back to that referee
cured me of swearing at Strang-
ers. / never did get to pay him
Bills respects in all that pretty
language I'd been rehearsing"
