OLIVER HANGS UP
NATIONAL RECORD
Punt of 81 Yards on Carry
Beats Mark Established
by Parnham in '27,

" YITH the Catholic University
foot ball season now thing
" of the past, several inter-
esting items have been
cleaned from the statistics of the
eight games played by the Cardinals.
Topmost in importance was the
establishing Of a national record by
Tom Oliver, veteran fullback punting
star. The Card back. in the game
against Western Maryland College,
November 3, got of an 84-yard kick
to break the existing recognized mark
of 80 yards, established in 1927 by
Bob Parnham of Georgia Tech against
Georgia. The length of the kick
was measured from the point OF con-
tact with the ball to the spot where
1t hit the ground, excluding the roll.
Makofske Is ID. C. Leader.
"A SIDE from this national mark.
n the Catholic U. team ran up sew
eral local collegiate records for
1884. Bob MakofSke, sophomore full
back and substitute for Oliver, led
the District scorers, with a total of Sc
points, which included nine touch
downs and two points after scores.
What tends to make the point-scor-
ing of the blond Hampstead, N. Y,
youth more impressive is the fact that
he played in only half the quarters
Of play for the season.
A close check-up on the eight-game
statistics shows that the Cards rolled
up a total of ITO first downs to the
opposition's so. The Red Birds were
outdowned only by Western Maryland,
which rolled up Is to 4. Catholic
scored 25 first downs against South
Dakota and % against Baltimore.

Has TremedOus Task.

ON THE shoulders Of Coach Tiny
Thornhill's men also rests the
job of trying to cut into the
impressive list of wins Southerners
have piled up in the intersectional
battle.
The South boasts 3-to-1 edge in
games won and lost over the West in
the 19-year-old event. The victories
stand at one each for the West and
Middle West while the East Is on the
short end of a 6-to-2 count.
Two of the South's wins were turned
in by Alabama at the expense Of
Washington in 1925, 40 to 10, and
Washington State, "a to 0, in 1881.
Georgia Tech beat California in the
other game.
1t has been pointed out frequently
that the South has been more sue
cesful than other opponents because it
is more accustomed to the warm wea-
ther encountered here at that time OF
year, yet this hardly accounts for
the triumphs of Notre Dame, Colum-
bia, and Harvard and the 0-to-0 tie
contest between Washington and JET
ferson and California.

~ ASADENA, Calf, December 10.
- Western foot ball fans who
lay much store by their Rose
Bowl defenders reviewed the
situation today and suddenly realized
Stanford had invited itself q peck
of trouble when it named Alabama as
an opponent New Year day.
The Crimson Tide has yet to taste
defeat in the Rose Bowl after three
appearances here.
Stanford has Jared rather badly IN
the classic, losing twice, getting one
tie and winning once by single
point.
Whether the present combination
from Palo Alto is better than that
which tied the 'Bama boys, z to Z,
in 1927 remains to be seen. And there
is the pertinent question OF whether
the Crimson Tide is better, as it ap-
pears to be.
Certainly Stanford will be seeking
revenge. Almost TO a man the 1888
eleven is the same as that Columbia
beat 7 to last year.

TOR the season the C. U. kickers
averaged AZ yards per try, while
opponents averaged 81 yards.
The Brooklanders accounted for a
mile and three-fifths from scrimmage
and completed passes, against their
opponents three-fifths of mile.
One kickoff was run back for a
touchdown, when Babe Gearty took
the opening boot in the Baltimore
battle and scooted IA yards. Gearty
also made the Cards longest run of
the season, an 87-yard jaunt for a

Capturing of deer on islands near Petersburg for placing on islands near Yakutat and at Kodiak is under way, according to Frank Du- fresne, of the Game Wardens of flee, who returned from a weeks trip to. the southern end of the division on the Nazco Saturday
 The method of capturing the deer was worked out last week in the camp of Hosea Sarber, who with crew of Is men has been trapping marten near Thomas Bay for stocking on Baranof Island. The deer are driven to the shore by the men with dogs and as they enter the water to swim, two boats take them from the water before they become exhausted.
 The boats have crates for seven deer where they are kept until they can be taken to retaining pens in Petersburg to await ship ment to Kakutat and Kodiak.
 MT. Dufresne left here week ago Friday on a plane for Ketchi- kan from where he visited the game trapping camp on Behm Canal in charge of H. w. Jewell with crew of 12 men. The mar ten trapped by this crew are being placed on Prince Of Wales Island.
