NATIONAL RATING
ON GRID bERATED
Futile to Attempt Serious
Ranking of Big Teams,
Critic Holds.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.


~ URING the 1884 foot ball sea-
son. which overlapped one
day into 1885, this writer saw
IA major teams in action;
teams representing the best Of every
section of the country.
They were Pittsburgh, Army and
Navy of the East; Minnesota, Ohio
State, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois,
Northwestern and Notre Dame of the
Middle West; Nebraska Of the Big
Six in the Missouri Valley; Stanford
and Southern California Of the Pa
ciflc Coast and Alabama Of the South.
That Is very fine cross-section Of
the game and, after observing those
teams, I am certain there Is no such
a thing as permanent regional supe-
riority. One section may have an out
standing team, but by and large the
foot ball played in one sector is just
as good as any other.
OF the teams seen from September
to January, I believe Minnesota had
the most powerful offense and the
strongest line; that Pittsburgh had
the smoothest-working attack; that
Ohio State had the trickiest; that
Stanford had the best-balanced team
and that Alabama had the most ag-
gressive.
Further, the writer refuses to COM
NIT himself. Attempting to name the
best team of those five would be fu-
tile. 1t is likely that each team had
day on which it could have beaten
any Of the others. Over the season
they all had fine balance, and all are
deserving of whatever honors paid
them.
But as to the best? Which Is the
largest grain Of sand in the ocean?
I still think all attempts at national
rating are very much the bunko.

HOWELL |SSLATED
TOBECOME TIGER
Base Ball Is Pet Game of
Alabama's ScintiIating
Foot Ball Star.
BY FRANCIS ]. J. POWERS.

Y OS ANGELES, Calf, January
5.-Some bright day next June
you may find Dixie Howell, the
Alabama foot ball star, playing
in the Detroit Tigers outfield. Howell
is as great on the diamond as he was
on the gridiron, and I am told the
Tigers have first call on his services
when the boy graduates from the
capstone campus.
As a sophomore second baseman on
the Alabama nine, Howell was just
an average college player. But during
the Summer, playing with an inde-
pendent team, he switched over to
shortstop and won the approval of
Eddie GocSetree, the Detroit scout.
Last Summer Frank Thomas, the
tide coach, insisted that Howell play
in the outfield-fearing the star half
back might suffer an injury on the
infield. 1t was as an outfielder that
Howell really attracted the attention
of half dozen big league hawks and
now there are several teams willing
to offer him contract. The Dixie
boy has a great arm-ask Stanford
fine speed and is said to be a fine
batter.
A LABAMA foot ball players have
n done well in major league base
ball, so there is precedent for
Howelrs probable success under the
big tent. Riggs Stephenson was
"Bama's" best fullback and a great
hitter with Cleveland and the Chicago
Cubs. Luke Sewell. the Washington
catcher, was smart quarterback and
his brother Joe deadly drop-kicker.
Del Pratt, fine second baseman in
the American League IS years ago,
was a star halfback at Tuscaloosa, and
both Red Barnes and Grant Gillis of
capstone gridiron fame spent few
seasons in the majors.
Base ball is the game Howell really
loves. In the dressing room, after the
Rose Bowl victory, Howell remarked,
Foot ball is swell, but base ball is my
game. I was just getting little
practice throwing today"
Howell may be just the outfielder
Mickey Cochrane needs. The Tigers
did real well with another Southern
kid some 25 years ago. A kid named
Tyrus Raymond Cobb, who had swell
time watching Dixie Howell pitch 'em
against Stanford.

SIGNING Of DEANS
RELIEF To FR|SCH
Hasn't Much to Worry Him
Now, Though He Wants
Some New Talent.
BY GEORGE CHADWICK.

NEW YORK, January 5.-Frankie
Frisch heaved sigh Of relief when
he was informed that the Dean boys
had signed up without the fuss and
bother predicted for the pair. Having
a pair of pitchers like the Deans
gives the st. Louis Cardinals manager
an edge on his rivals.
With the Deans in line, Frisch is
not satisfied to go along with the
team that captured the 1884 National
League pennant and the world series.
frankie wants another pitcher, two
infielders and one more outfielder. He
points out tnat the Cubs and Giants
have been fortified and will be harder
to beat than in 1884.
The Cards started out late in the
past season and did not clinch the
pennant until the closing week of the
campaign. They won only of their
first IL games and from the brand Of
ball they played it looked as though
they would be lucky to finish up with
the first four. The fans rode the team
hard, and it is matter of record that
it played far better ball away from
home.
Deans Turn Tide.
4 DOUBLE triumph over the Giants
n struck the spark that started
the Cards on the road to Pen
nantville. The Cards went over to
Brooklyn and the Dean boys went
into their act. Dizzy pitched a three
hit game. Daffy set the Dodgers down
scoreless in nine consecutive innings,
and when the totals were checked he
had entered the no-hit, no-run hall of
base ball fame. From then on the
team plugged along, with the Deans
hurting masterful ball.
FriSch admits he has played with
better ball clubs than the present
Cardinals. But never a gamer club.
He points out that he went into Sep
tember 7la games behind the Giants.
AS a general rule club leading with
any sort of margin July is looked
upon as the champion And the
chances of the Cardinals were consid-
cred hopeless. Even the Cubs were
looked upon as a better team. But
the turn came in September. The rest
Is history, and what the Deans did
to Mickey Cochrane's clawing Tigers
confirms Frankie's statement that he
led courageous ball club into a pen
nant and world series.

The Gophers have more power

the Tide could have stopped Stan
Kosta any better than Pittsburgh,
Nebraska or Chicago. Minnesota's

Champions and 1885 Chances.
No. 2-Lawson Little.

NJ. S-LdWSOu Aitkics
r OS ANGELES, January S.
Lawson Little, Stanford star,
has two golf crowns to defend
this year, where one is usually
enough to furnish trouble.
The husky young Californian starts
1885 holding both the British and
American titles. and at this early date,
he expects to defend both, or at least
put up a gallant attempt.
What chance has Little to carry out
this defense?
In the first place the odds, under
the present 18-hole match play sys-
TEN employed both abroad and at
home, have become extremely heavy.
Ordinarily they are 10 to 1,
at least, against the pick of the
field. When you face two 10
to-1 shots you can figure the
odds against grabbing both
bets.
In Little's present case, it is doubt
full if you could get 10 to against
him, for various reasons:
/. He is one of the longest hitters
in golf with sound iron game to
follow this up.
2. He is a high-class putter. with a
keen, sure touch around the greens.
3. He is a cool, stout hearted COM
petitor with more than his share Of
determination.
4. He has youth and stamina to
carry him through the weeks ordeal.
5. He was a greatly improved golfer
in 1884 over 1888 and he is still
working at further improvement.

formidable than any amateur cham
pion since Bobby Jones retired.
When he was beaten by George
Dunlap at Cincinnati he said then
that his next step would be to improve
his iron play-the one flaw in his
equipment. He went to Tommy
Armour, an able instructor and one Of
the greatest of all iron players, to find
the road. Armour's teaching was a
big factor in the development he
needed-in better use of the left hand
and the left side-and with this kink
removed, Little romped through at
Prestwick and Brookline.
Playing over the long, test
ing course at Stanford, Little
has been playing around par
steadily.
He is fortunate in living In climate
where he can play steadily all through
Winter and Spring. over a course that
calls for both length and control.
This next season Little expects or
hopes to play in the British amateur,
the United States open at Oakmont
and the United States amateur at
Cleveland.
And from the way he is swinging a
club now, he will be a big factor in
every start, although the odds against
any one in the United States open are
backbreaking, no matter who you
name.

Loses Only One Regular.

Loses Only One Regular.
~F THE II men rated as regulars
on the Stanford team in 1884,
Buck Van Dellen, the left half
back, is the only one to graduate in
June. That means the Cardinals again
will have Bobby Grayson, Frank
Alustiza and Bobby Hamilton as the
nucleus of a great backfeld and
Thornhill anticipates little difficulty in
filling the left halfback position; in
fact, no difficulty at all.
The line returns intact and II the
1884 freshman squad produces even
few capable players to perform in
substitute roles, the Cardinals should
be much stronger than during the
past two seasons. Which makes me
feel sorry for Howard Jones and my
other friends who must try to find
ways and means of stopping the STAN
ford avalanche.
Stanford had four all-America
candidates last season in Grayson,
Reynolds. Moscrip and Hamilton.
Next Fall it will have five if Wes
Muller can escape injuries and illness.
Tiny Thornihll believes Muller should
be the best center in the country and
I agree. Built along the same lines
as Chuck Bernard, the former Michi-
gan star, Muller does everything well
and certainly is headed for national
recognition. So next Autumn the
all-America pickers can start with
Stanford and work East and South.
Alabama Hard Hit.
A LABAMA, the winner Of the Rose
~ Bowl game, will be harder hit
and may find it difficult to re-
peat as Dixie champion. The Tide
loses Hutson, Howell and Lee, its
three outstanding stars, as well as
Mari and Morrow, the guards, and
Joe Demyanovich, the fullback.
Still Frank Thomas probably will
turn out another strong team since
he has plenty of experienced replace
ments. Francis, center; Bryant, end;
Whatley, tackle: Smith, quarter back,
and Angelica, half back, will return
and Thomas can fill the vacant gaps
with Bill Young at tackle, TarZan
guards, Jim Walker on the end,
Young Boozer at left half and Rhor.
| danz at fullback.
The Tide coach probably will pros
pect around for a heavier fullback
than Rhordanz but since the 1884
Alabama yearling team was a corker.
Thomas likely will find the sort Of
player he needs for the position.
So it is not impossible that STAN
ford and Alabama may meet in the
Rose Bowl game again on January
/, 1896. The crowd of $4,000 which
saw the New Year day game is suf-
ficient proof of Alabama's popularity
with Pacific Coast foot ball followers
and that is enough to give the Tide
first call if it goes through unbeaten
! again in 1885.
