CITIZENS |NDORSE
LOCALIZED RACING
West End Association Fa-
vors Track in D. c. to
Increase Revenues.

Approval Of legalized horse racing
In the District was voted last night
by members Of the West End Citizens
Association when 1t met at No. 3 pre-
cinct station.
The motion resulted from q general
discussion of means Of increasing rev.
enue for the District. Charles L.
Norris, delegate to the Federation Of
Citizens Associations, told members
he did not think they should 60 on
record as opposing an increase In
taxes since funds are constantly being
asked by civic groups for local i'm
provement projects. I
Mr.. Barber, author Of the racing
motion, declared he could see no rea-
son why the District should not get
q percentage Of the money that now
"goes Just across the border" for this
purpose.
Motion Opposed.
Mr.. Norris opposed the motion. He
declared that If racing is legalized
here, steps might as well be taken to
legalize ''other forms Of vice for addi-
tional revenue"
President Robert D. Lyons told
members he thought it would be q
mistake for the association to 90 on
record as favoring legaizing racing
but the motion was passed by a mar
gin of one vote.
Traffic Regulations Hit.
J. H. Purdy complained about re-
cent traffic regulations making
Twenty-second street q one-way
thoroughfare for one and q half hours
each morning and for the same length
of time in the evenings. and at the
same time restricting parking on this
street.
Mr.. Purdy, Mr.. Norris and Mr..
Barber were appointed on a special
committee to report at the next meet
ing on this matter.
John H. Sleeps was admitted to
membership at last nights meeting.

Bob Zuppke created the most
spectacular play Of the football sea-
son now drawing to close.
While q group close to Illinois dis
cussed it q day or two before the
Ohio State game, Mike Tobin, the
rublicist, suggested that It be called
the Flying Trape7e. The name stuck.
The play brought Zuppke's squad
its second and winning touchdown in
the second quarter Of the battle with
the mighty Buckeyes.
Zuppke developed q running ver-
sion Of this maneuver which worked
against Northwestern.
Illinois put the bali In play on
Ohio States 36-yard line,. and six
men, including the center, handled
the ball. A triple lateral, the last Of
which was one for Is yards, preceded
a long forward pass into the end
zone.
Johnny Theodore, fullback, took the
ball from El Sayre, center, and faxed
6 buck. Just before he reached the
line Of scrimmage, Theodore tossed
q lateral to Co-Captain Charley Ben
mis-. left guard, who had blocked and
come out Of the line.
Bennis faded back ana tossed .
lateral to Les Lindbe-g, left-half-
back, who ran to the right, whirled,
ard threw a 25-yard lateral to Co.
Captain Jack Beynon, quarterback.
Beynon had gone into the Ohio
State secondary, turned to his left,
re-crossed the lire Of scrimmage,
s,nd returned deep into hts own
backfield.
Taking the long lateral from Lind

took aim, and dropped the ball into

The second team perhaps is as good
as the first except for Grayson and
Boyer.
Frankovich, Of U. g. L. A., and

splendid backs, and young Bill
Spaulding was right up there until

Grayson, Williams, Hamilton and

In addition to being . fine pass

Moscrip is one Of the most accurate

Louisville, KY. Nov. 20.-(P)-1n
the same hotel lobbies, where horse
players reveal and argue each Ken
lucky Derby event, sauntered the
shrewdest David Harurns Of baseball
Tuesday in quest of deals to bolster
their clubs.
With the meeting Of the minor
leagues a day off, everything was in
the rumor stage, but every major
league club had a representative on
the Job, indicating busy week in the
player mart. Unlike other years.
when most OF the David Harums said
they were "only looking around" all
admitted they were anxious to turn
in few deals.
Some of the rumors OF impeding
deals involving their clubs were:
Martin Rumored on Block
That the st. Louis Cardinals had
Pepper Martin, "the wild hoss of the
Osage,' on the market for the best
offer, possibly for Woody English Of
the Chicago Cubs.
That the Washington Senators were
ready to trade Heinie Manush and
Buddy Myer TO the Yankees if they
can get two or three fine looking
young prospects In return.
The only important tangible news
involves the fate of the little world
series, the fall Glass AA classic played
between champions of the Interna-
tional League ard the American Asso-
citation. The A. A. asked the I. l.. to
shorten its post-season play-offs, a
system that requires three separate
post-season series to decide the cham
pion of that league. or else give up
the little world series.
Requests Shorter Playoff
The A. A. chiefs insist that the I. l..
play-offs require so much time that
when the little world series is played
that there Is no customer interest.
In the A. A. the championship is de-
cided in one post-season series be-
tween the leaders Of the western and
eastern divisions Of the league. Com
1nittees Of each league were to at
tempt to settle the argument Tues
day.
Upwards Of 900 representatives are
expected to attend the regular minor
league meeting Wednesday.

SECOND TEAM
Boyer Upset Saint Mary's

It was the stout play of Boyer and
Wendell Womble, guards, that en-
abled the University Of California ct
Los Angeles to beat Saint Mary's,
60. Boyer and Womble were block
houses on the defense in that Armis-
tice Day battle.
Saunders has the accuracy Of the
reliable center.
As related In the foregoing only the
individual brilliance Of Grayson gives
my first team backs margin over those
Of the second. Most any coach would
settle for q combination like Frank
lin, Sobrero, Nichelini and Sulkosky.
Franklin always Is q threat In the
open. II Sobrero does any one thing
to more extent than another It Is
passing. Nichelini Is the hard-run-
ming spearhead OF Saint Mary's
breakaway attack. Sulkosky cracks
the line like the Twentieth Century.
It is indeed hard to keep ends like
Erdlitz and Jones and forwards like
Ullin, Harper, Stojack, Hayduk, and
Siemn:ering off any first team, but
it seems that these mythical arrays
have to be picked, and when it comes
