ARE Z UNSUNG
LINE STARS
By SID KATZNELL

The reason why youth desires
to become a backfield player when
he first puts his foot on the grid
iron is because an average fan
does not pay particular attention
to the line; in fact he keeps his
eyes glued on the progress of the
backfield.
And another important fact IS
that the press invariably forsakeS
the Iineman and writes columns
Of praise anent the back who
makes long runs. But they forget
almost entirely about the lineman
who makes the runs possible. This
fellow just opens up a huge hole so
that the back can dash through
unmoleSted.
Take the case of Bill Geiger.
Tech High guard, who has been
playing wonderful ball for the past
two years and has received little
credit from the press and fans.
However, Hardell praises him and
so do his teammates. They know
that without Geiger, Tech wouldn't
have Jared so well in the scholas-
tic circles for the past two seasons.
He is considered one of the finest
guards to play on local school
gridirOnS in a decade,
Big Bill Krause, 23O-pound guard
of Western, is another lad who
has been left out of the picture.
He is fine lineman. His defen-
sive performance aided Western
no little in it's victories last year.

Now that the national amateur

to who will win, the four local
delegates, having been eliminated,
will return home to take part
in the championships at the re-
Spective clubs.
Martin F.. Mccarthy, of Beaver

for Sunday. Mccarthy, being
defending champion, was auto
matically qualified. Wins o n

club, shooting a II before de-
parting for the national anna
teur.

There be no need of haste on
the part of Billy Dettweiler, Con-
gressional, and Jimmy Drain,
Washington. The qualifying
round at Congressional will be
held week from tomorrow while
qualifying is scheduled Septem'
ber % at Washington.
Mccarthy bowed out of the
national amateur yesterday after
lasting longest of the local bri'
gade. He yielded to the superior
play of Bob Kepler, Dayton
(Ohio) star, 5 and 4, in a third
round match. Mccarthy matched
Kepler off the tee and through
the fairway, but he couldn't
stand up under the keen putting
of his foe. Kepler reeled off
ten one-putt greens and was IS,

they are. The Endeavour has
an amateur crew because her
professional crew went on
strike for more money at what
seemed to them a critical time.
Like so many strikes this one
lost. Mr.. Sopwith simply al
lowed them to go on striking
while he assembled this bunch
of amateurs with whom he is
greatly pleased.
Thankless Task
Exporting on any sports event
is a thanklesS task and expert
ing on a yacht race must be
something terrific. Indeed, the
veteran Duncan Curry with
whom we had dinner at the
Viking House last evening told
us that he had known experts
on these yacht races who could
sit with a tall glass in their
hands and expert by the hour
without moving.
Dune" said that in the days
of Tad and Ring Lardner and
the late w. o. Mcclellan dur
ing previous cup races the ex-
porting was something to be-
hold, and that he did not ex-
pect to live long enough ever
to see anything like it again.
But maybe he is a pessimist.
What I was going to say,
however, was that the con-
Sensus among the experts seems
to be that while the En-
deavour is a slightly better
boat than Rainbow. Mr.. Van
derbilt is the more expert
enced and sharper skipper
with perhaps the better crew.

of professional sailors against
amateurs.

He started sailing them

pair of long trousers, he was
also getting a yacht of his

is the way it goes. Some gets

The Truth About the +Betting Odds of to

=, ,KnOps Truth About EN- But That Means Little
BY BILL CORUM

NEWPORT, R. T., Sept. 13.
In England this would be known
as race week at Cowes, in
France it would be the Grand
Semaine and up here in New
England, U. S. A., we might as
we'll call 1t Nifty Nights at New
port.
What it actually is, or rather
what it will be on Saturday, is
the beginning of the best four
out of seven races for the Amer
1ca's Cup. They call it the
Americas Cup because America
always wins it, or at any rate,
she always has for 83 years.
which is long enough in which
to grow a beard.
The competing yachts this
time will be the defender Rain
bow, piloted by Harold Stirling
Vanderbilt, and the Endeavour,
owned and piloted by Thomas
Octave Murdock Sopwith. If
the last name is too long for you
to remember, just drop one Oc-
tave. Or even call him Tom"
for short. We NeWporters are
nothing if not Democratic.
The Rainbow is known in
these parts as "the economy
yacht" Partially because she
was fitted with some spare
parts from the Enterprise which
successfully defended the cup
against Uncle Tom LiptOn's last
Shamrock in 1880, and partially
because she cost a mere half
million dollars. When a Van
derbilt has an old pair of shoes
half soled that's economy, isn't
it? And probably when he and
16 other millionaires (the syn
dicate which built Rainbow
spend no more than a half mil
lion on a cup yacht, that's also
economy. Your correspondent
who knows very little about
millionaires and even less about
cup yachts, wouldn't know for
sure.
