Abbott LEADING
Coast Golf

LOS ANGELES, Dec. % Q.N.SO.
Pat Abbott, slender Altadena pub.
lice links amateur, today took the
lead in the Southern California
Open Golf championship in the
final round at the Oakmont Club
when he completed his morning
round in 10 and was one under
par for the first nine holes of his
afternoon round.
Par golf on the last nine would
give him a total score of 279
which was considered good enough
to win the championship.
Two strokes behind Abbott at
the 54-hole mark were Eric Sea-
vail, the Oakmont resident profes-
sional, who had 70 for his morn
ing round, and Harold McSpaden,
with II. Both had totals of 213.
Macdonald Smith, winner OF
the Oakmont Open last year, had
a 70 this morning for a total of
213. At this point he was tied
with Olin Dutra, of Wiltshire, who
came in with a SO.
w. Lawson Little. jr, of San
Francisco, British and American
amateur champion, drew the gal
lery, as usual. But Lawson ran
into many bad breaks and an 49,
hole score that could well have
been a IS or IS became a 76, CIV
ing him a total of 218 for the 81
holes

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-Two
veteran internationalists and a
trio of youngsters who are far
from new to big-time polo will
make up the American team
which will battle England for the

ment made today by the United
States Polo Association.
Tommy Hitchcock, the greatest
mallet-swinger in the world, and
recently returned to his old

complete the squad. Billy Post,
who has performed in champion
ship play at one time or another
with all five of the others, was
also invited to make the trip
abroad, but refused because Of
the pressure of business.

Bears Defeat

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 24.-Cali-

Pacific Coast conference basket
ball champions, left this city to-
day after uprooting Temple Uni
versity from the ranks of unde-
feated teams, by 40 to 43, in the

The East VS.. West battle was
the feature of a double-header
that started with undefeated Long
Island University winning from
St. Joseph's College, Of Philadel-
phia, 35 to 80.
Fully recovered from their de-
feat by New York University in
the first game of their Eastern in
vasion. the Californians gained a
23-to-22 advantage at half time
only to fall behind in the last
half. Staging brilliant rally in

Pacific Coast Rules
The first half of the game was
conducted along Pacific Coast con-
ference rules-without the center
tapoff. The score was tied at "a,
and 9 during the initial half, with
the Bears going out into an 1910
II margin before the home quin-
tet could turn the tide. The half
ended with the invaders holding
a 23-to-22 advantage.
After Temple took the lead at
the start of the second half on a
field goal, two deadlocks resulted
at IS and 20. The Owls broke the
latter tie to forge ahead, gaining
a lead of 41.to-36. before the Bears
started the drive that carried
them to a 49-to:43 victory.
Roy Olson, captain of the in
vading typhoon in basketball
suits, and his center, Luce, led the
Bears attack, scoring 10 points
each, while Duncan Copeland, an.
other California center, registered
three baskets for six points.

Leads
All Stars
In Poll

HICAGO, Dec. 24.-The
country's baseball writer's faced
a knotty problem today.
Before them is list Of 80 Of
the games immortals, and re.
quest from Henry P. Edwards,
secretary Of the Baseball Writer'S
Association Of America, to choose
10 whose names will be placed
in baSeballs hall Of fame and
museum now being established
at Cooperstown, N. Y, cradle
Of baseball.
Heading the list of candidates
is Christy Mathewson, old New
York Giant hero. The list is not
a mandatory one, Edwards ex-
planned today, although it is
probable the 10 greats" will be
selected from the players named.
He explained that a number Of
present-day stars such as Dizzy
Dean, Gabby Hartnett, Lefty
Gomez, and Paul Waner were
left off on the theory they will
be selected in later years when
five players are named annually
for the hall of baseball fame.
Here's the List
The list includes 10 pitchers,
eight outfielders, five second
basemen, three catchers, three
first baSemen, three third base
men, and one Shortstop. They
are:
Pitchers: Christy Mathewson,
Grover Cleveland Alexander, Cy
Young. Big Ed Walsh, Rube
Waddell, Walter Johnson, Nor.
decai Brown, RUDE Marquardt,
Chief Bender and Robert Moses
Grove.
Catchers: Roger Bresnahan,
Mickey Cochrane and Lew Criger.
First basemen: George Sisler,
Lou Gehrig and Jimmy Fox.
Second basemen: Napoleon
Lajoie, Eddie Collins, Rogers
Hornsby, John Evers and Frank
Frisch.
Shortstop: Honus Wagner.
Third basemen: Jimmy Collins,
Bill Bradley and Pie Traynor.
Outfielders: Ty Cobb, Iris
Speaker, Babe Ruth, Al Simmons,

bowling, ike d4 OGueE Sdukcot
had its inception outdoors. In
some form or another, it is al
most as ancient as the human
race. In the earlier days, the
implements were crude.
Rounded stones were used and
were bowled along a flat fixed sur
face at a fixed object. Anthropol-
ogists claim to have discovered
evidences that Aborigines used
the well polished skulls Of their
enemies to knock down thigh
bone stakes. The eye-Sockets
took the place of the grip-holeS
used now in the ten-pin game.
The game seems to have been
popular in all chimes and with
all races-if the findings Of
scientists can be trusted. Naturally
there has been radical changes
in the game. It flourished most
in the early medieval centuries
In England and in France.
In England, it was known as
the game of "bowleS" while the
Frnech called in "bouleS" or car
reau." OF course, there were
many other names used colloquially
in many districts in England and
France. To name them all would
require a siZeable book.
Many Changes
Bowling has always been pri-
marily a competitive sport,
played by teams or sides. In the
early days, the ball was eccentric,
one side spherical and the other
oval, so that the player could
make it curve. The art of using
English or spin to produce a

event of the extensive schedule
of winter sports-not even the

means so much to Navy as the
boxing match with Virginia, set

the Cavaliers.
Virginia has won three straight
battles in the ring against Navy.
It is the only team to win at An
napolis from the Sailors, and the
only one to hold the advantage in
the series.
The Navy team should be above

January ;

CHAPEL HILL, N. c., Dec. "a.
North Cardinals basketball play
ers will return from the holidays
on Friday to resume practice for
the heavy court schedule which
begins January with Clemson
furnishing the competition.
Regular pre-holiday workouts
were discontinued last Saturday
but the men have been taking
drills off and on during the past
week. Exams held full attention.
Two practices will be held Fri
day, and two will be held every
day until college opens Janu-
airy 8.
Scramble for Jobs
There is still a wide open
scramble for several positions on
the first string. Capt. Jim Nc
Cachren and Earl Ruth, guards,
and Melvin Nelson, forward, have
their posts more safely in hand
than any of the others. McCach-
rem has been all-Southern guard
for two seasons and this winter
hopes to repeat. Ruth is a Sopho-
more and was a star Of last sea-
sons State champion freshman
team. Nelson was Cardinals high
scorer last winter and was second
all-Southern forward. Both Nc
Cachren and Nelson are seniors.
Another senior, Latch Webster,
seems to have the inside track
for the center position. He has
shown much improvement in his
tip-off jumping. Together with
his fine floor game and sure
shooting, he should be able to
step into the shoes Of Jason
Glace, last seasons all-Southern
center. Red Meroney sophomore,
is giving Webster a fight for the
post.
Kaveny May Play Center
Paul Kaveny, monogram senior,
may play at center or guard. He
has been working at both posts.
Last season he played either for
ward, guard or center.
: The forward berth with Nelson
is the big free-for-all on the team.
At present two sophomores
have the inside track. They are
Andy Bershak, football star, and
Ramsey Potts, tennis hero. Both
are excellent shots and play good
floor games. But Bershak is the
tallest and most rugged. Potts
handles himself beautifully.
The other leading forward can
didates include Pete MulliS, John
Rainey, Henry Wright and Tom
CTaver.
