 Newport. E. l., September 25- (UP) = The most heartening hu- nor that has emanated from this center of Society scandal and yachting mania since the inven- tion of the 59eent dollar reached the ears of your eager correspond ent tonight.
 There may not be another challenger for the Americas cup in 50 years, more or less. in the event that Endeavour persists in taking second place. Indignation is running so high on the sloop owned and operated by Thomas Octave Murdock Sopwith. that it augurs very i'll, or very well, de- pending upon your point of view, for future social relations between the royal yacht squadron of Cowes, England. and the New York Yacht Club of New York, N. Y. U. S. A.
 am hoping for the worst. Off hand I cannot think of anything more delightful than the Royal yachters and the New York yachters breaking off diplomatic relations, except possibly an intro duction to Miriam Hopkins and Myrna Los, especially La Loy. My, she is nice!
 Be that as 1t may or may not. the current rumor about mora torium on challenges is the sweet est note sung on this continent since Caruso died. If true, it will liberate American newspapermen from the yoke of yachting, sea sickness. starboard tacks. head stays, corset stays. Becky Wood s boarding house and all the other accoutrements of international races.
 For two months. now. have been quarantined in this haven of protest flags. technical triviaities. and social decorum where you are entirely welcome unless you come along with some such name as Sir Fanfurly Aylmer Plunkett. Ernie erle-Drax, better known to his in- inmates as Drax. for short. Sli Fanfurly, etcetera., came up on tis majesty's ship, Dragon. man n- war well equipped for settling yacht races. It would have been a good idea for me to come up or his majesty's ship. She Is much more impressive barge than the Priscilla line that plies between New York and Newport and brought me here at the modest price of $2.9S.
 or course, this seems to be get ting away from Myrna Loy. but business Is business. There Is c very definite connection between Priscilla and the dragon. The Priscilla brings prospective in- mates to Newport and deposits them on a wharf for better and tor worse, while the dragon keeps It's cargo of sumans aboard. suspi- cipusIy ready to attack the town and take the America's cup hy force if Endeavour doesn't sue ceed.

DETROITERS s'IN'' AS TANK LOSE

Cards Must Win Six Games Left to Cop Flag If
 Giants Lose Two

New York, Sept -(UP) Nov that the Detroit Tigers hawe clinched the American league pei1~ nant baseball interest Is concern trated on the wind-up National league struggle between the lead- ing New York Giants and runner- up St Louis Cardinals.
 The Cards al victory over Chi- cago's Cubs yesterday left the idle Giants only two games ahead, but St Louis still must sweep it's re- maining six games, even if the Giants lose two of their remaining four, to win the pennant.
 Stickwork!
 St Louis downed the Cubs in the final meeting between the two clubs when Pepper Martin made q home run in the third after Du- rocher had doubled. Durocher'g single in the ninth drove in Orr satti with the third Cardinal run. Bill Walker held the Cubs to seven hits, while the Cards garnered Il off Warneke and Lee.
 In the only other National league meeting slated, Brooklyn took two games from the Phillies. 5-3 and 10-1. Boyle came home on a double steal in the eighth frame of the opener to clinch the game for Brooklyn, and moment later Frey scored on Chiozza's error to in- crease the margin. In the night cap, Beck limited the Phils to four hits, while the Dodgers collected 13 off Hansen, Grabowski and Wall ters. M

 Senators Smcared
 Philadelphia's Athletics swept a twin bill with Washington as the Senators automatically became ex- champions of the American league. The As took the opener, 5-4, after Jimmy Foxx's 44th home run of the season in the eighth inning proved the winning tally. Bob Johnson's Homer in the eighth. with two aboard. won the nightcaIt for the As, 80. This gave Bill Dietrich well-merited pitching victory. He allowed only two hits. while Armbruster and Thomas yieled six.
 These were the only games scheduled.

SOVIET PLANS
 SPORTS CLUBS
 FOR CHAMPIONS

Moscow (UP)-Specialization in sports, with a view to producing champions, finally has been sane toned by the Supreme Council of Physical Culture.
 A recent Council session ordered reorganization of the existing phy- sical culture clubs, with view to intensifying their activities and giving the individual more scope for development.
 The Greek, sporting ideal still remains as the standard. That ideal calls for harmonious, we'll balanced physical development, rather than the oYer-emphasiZing
 of any one set of muscles for spe- cialized purposes.
 All the same, certain compro-
 misse now will be allowed. Special schools will be formed for those | wishing to perfect themselves in some one sport. There is general recognition that in avoiding spe-
 cialization Soviet sport has tended to a certain dull amateurishness. The Council stated that there
 now are 5,000,000 men and women
 taking part in physical culture &C., l tivities on an organized basis. The
 relatively low quality of their work
 makes it necessary, the Council :n- dicated, to centralize and control physical culture.
 The circles will be merged in larger centralized sport societies, with greater facilities. more effec- tive leadership and more oppor- tunity for the growth of cham pions.

 He observed, however, that practically all of our opponents will be stronger this year than in 1883, so that any championship talk is rather far-fetched." He expects that "the breaks of the game will decide largely where we stand at the end of the season."
 The Gopher mentor faces a sit uation this year almost the re- verse of 1888. When practice opened last year number of sophomores had to be developed to fill gaping holes left by gradu- ation. Six sophomores, four juniors and senior comprised the first string team when conference competition opened.
 For the 1884 campaign Herman will have 17 iettermen and a smaller sophomore group. There will be at least one veteran for every position on the team. Of last years regulars, only Captain Roy Den will be missing.
 Seven of the lettermen are back field candidates, three are ends and the remaining seven are linesmn, of which four are tackles, two are guards and one is center.
 Captain Francis Pug" Lund, one of the Big Tens stars last Near, will lead the Gophers this year. He is expected to do the passing. kicking and full share of the ball carrying, as left half.

|HILLTOPPER VETS
 EXPECT TO BAIT
 NORTHWESTERN Il
Wildcats of Dick Hanley Will Have Early Sea-
 son Trouble
BY RED GRANGE

Copyright 1884 NEA Service Inc.)
 Chicago, Sept. 25-An arn- bilious group of Marquette athletes constitutes the first of a series of headaches for Dick Hanley, Wildcat coach, at Northwestern University's stadium at Evanston on Sept. 29.
 With the exception of one open date, Northwestern meets success sively Iowa, Stanford, Ohio State, Wilconsin, Illinois, Notre Dame and Michigan.
 It is doubtful that even a Knute Rockne could cope with that sched- ule.
 The other Western Conference teams should have relatively little trouble with the opening opposi- tion.
 Illinois tackles Bradley and should win going away from the game study outfit from Peoria.
 North Dakota State hardly can be expected to cope with Minne- sota's veterans. The same is true of South Dakota, which meets Iowa. ] question whether Carroll College can halt Jay Berwanger and his cohorts for long at Chica- go. Bo McMillen at Indiana should clear his first hurdle, Ohio University. z Dr Clarence w. Spears will use the day to further prepare WiscoI- sin for Marquette the following week.
 Elmer Layden will be laying Notre Dame's plans for it's inaugu- ral against Texas on october 3. Ohio State, likewise, has no game scheduled.
 Kipke, Kizer Face Jobs Michigan and Purdue also have open dates, for which Harry Kipke and Noble Kizer are undoubtedly grateful. Each faces big job in replacing the key men on last years great teams, lost by grad | uation.
 After more years of football than care to admit, the nearness ot the opening whistle in Big Ten competition gives this old war dog a thrill.
 The Mort w estern Marquette match rates the spotlight on the Big Tens opening card. Gene Ronzani, Johnny Sisk, and | Wayland Becker, who delivered more than their share of fame and glory for Marquette in past years tells me they expect the Hilltop pers to win. Their biggest worry is that | Coach Frank Murray's collection of huge sophomofes may choke up and become buttery-fingered when for the first time, they find them selves in a huge stadium, surround ed by sloping walls of people.

 great weight and power. This vii include Guepe, 175-pound guar ter; Cuff at right half, fine, 200
 pound blocking back: Lott, a full back who weighs 205; and Buvit at left half. a fast. husky boy
 weighing 195, who can run, kick and pass. Buvid is expected to g. places.
 Ronzani, Sisk and Becker aie also warning the Wildcats against Galarido, another sophomore, who is expected to take the right tackle job. He is runt of 220 pounds, From tackle to tackle, the Milwau- kee machine will average moro than 200 pounds. The wingmen, Bell and McMahon, weigh about l1SO pounds each. Bell is a re- formed quarterback. Intercollegiate football will ob- tain a running start in the midwest with the battle between North western and Marquette.
