Paymasters vs scheduIers

PaymaSterS vS Scne0uIerS.
 Tom Quinlan's Paymasters were surely in good form this week and took all points from Tom MarshalPs Schedulers to open up the second round of bowling in this league. Marshall was trying to blame Woos- ter for the losses because Fred came up with his wrist bandaged up. Anyway, Tom, Fred was consistant, rolling three games of 81 each. The Paymaster tried to keep off of the Scrub Team" this week but Tom Martin slipped the. last game. The Schedulers thought they were get- ting break this week because they received a handicap this round. but 1t turned out NC. Joe Dunn was in rare form and 1t won't be long before he will be up with the top notches if he keeps up the pace. A funny incident happened this. week that both captains led their respec- tive teams Tom Quinlan with 344 and Tom Marshall with 311.
 Time Studiers vs. Recorders
 The Time Studiers after losing eight out of the last nine games came through victorious and took all points this week from Joe Ga- lasso's Recorders. Maybe the handicap was all that they needed to get underway again. There doesn't seem to be much noise made by the Recorders and perhaps that is why they are in the cellar. Why not try to borrow Sterry's siren for 8 couple of weeks Joe, and see if 1t helps. Great newsl One- Ball OLeary is of of the scrub team and does he feel happy. We wonder if he is getting some prac- tice outside. Ed Parke tried to help the Recorders with his 115 the last game but 1t went to no avail be- cause they lost the game by one pin. We haven't heard who was the one responsible for this victory. Frank Stein led his team with 334 and Eddie Standard was high man for the losers with 300.
 Contractors vs. SpeciaIties
 Bob Heseltine's Contractors can't seem to get underway with two new players and thus they lost three games to Frank Johnson's Specialties. The Specialties are leading the league and we wonder how a team so high can get such handicap. The Watertown isren (Marvin Sterry, in case you don't know who he is), seems to throw everybody oil of their game. When he lets 1t go, nobody else has any, thing to say. Perhaps if he stopped he might do better bowling and get himself of of the Scrub Team. Perhaps the Contractors were some- what skeptical because Capt. Hes- eltine was off form. Perhaps Size- love can answer why they lost this week. John Johnston was high for tile losers, bowling 348, and Capt. Frank Johnson led his team with 329.
 The league has certainly im- proved and if you start comparing notes with what the boys did the opening night you will see quite .

IBIG STAKES UP FOR OHIO STATE
 AND NOTRE DAME
Players, Coaches and City of Columbus Will Benefit
 From Coming Clash
BY TOMMY DIVINE

w GaANsENgOAAAASAAot Columbus, O., Oct. 31.-(UP).- Football stakes in fitting proportion to a million dollar" grid attrac- ton will hang on the outcome of the Notre Dame-O Ohio State game here Saturday.
 With a capacity crowd of ap- proximately 80,000 assured, tickets in the hands of scalpers bringing prosperity prices, hotel rates at boom levels and amusement prices increased accordingly, the throng which gathers for the premier con- test of the season is expected to spend close to $1,000,00 The prizes for which the Irish and Buck players will battle can't be measured entirely in terms of coli cash, but few collegiate teams have played in recent seasons for greater stakes.
 To Ohio State a victory Saturday will be another step toward the first undefeated and united season a Buck team has had since 19l6, when the immortal Chic Harley led the team to 8 perfect record in seven games.
 Masterpiece
 The game offers to Francis A. Schmidt, the tall Texan who in the space of two seasons changed from practically an unknown to one of the coaching professions outstand- ing figures, an opportunity to in- crease his prestige.
 Just as great are the incentives for the Ramblers from South Bend.
 The contest Saturday is the para mount game on their schedule and the one they desire to dedicate to the memory of young Joe Sullivan, the New York lad who was robbed by death of the honor of captain ing an Irish team.
 Title and Record
 Just as victory would send championship hopes of Ohio soar- ing, triumph would likewise prac- tically assure Elmer Layden,s eleven of having a finger in the championship spoils and of hang ing up the finest record compiled by a Rambler team since an air. plane crash deprived them of Knute Rockne.
 To Layden himself, a triumph would mark the greatest accom- plishment of a 10 year coaching career and would enable hi into be- come the first coach of a midwest ern team not in the Big Ten to de- feat Ohio.

WATERBURY INDIES
 GO TO THOMASTON

Nearly out of breath but still smiling since last Sunday when his team beat the Providence Bradley Metcalfs, Manager Henry Del Pc, after 90 minutes discussion with Ernie Ruggles, business agent of the Thomaston Tigers, announced the signing of the All-Thomaston combine for game at Plume and Atwood field, Thomaston Sunday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock.
 With two new backs, including "Jelly" Maxwell, the west end flash who is rated good forward passer, the Indies will swing into a hard practice drill for Thomaston tonight at 7:30 o'clock at Hamilton Park under Brown Jim Murphy, Crosby line coach, who has tutored the h. dies all season.

Stevens, whose mother obviously was frightened by a superlative, never claimed fewer than eleven, even on off days.
 The Notre Dame fellows are pret- ty sure of the first team berth, as are the ink-stained wretches of N. Y. U., Purdue, Marquette. Detroit and North Carolina. The Caro- lima publicity cannoneer is a new- conner, but he's been firing both barfels in a beautiful manner this year. Even if the Tarheeis don't get to the Rose Bowl, the school should make up @ fund and send the press agent out, anyway, for he's deserved the trip. One idea of his alone-that of wiring his horse- feathers to the papers collect-has save the university enough to buy him q ticket as far as Alberqueque.

SHARK SOUNDS . OFF ON RETURN
 TO BIG BOXING
Says He Can Beat Joe Louis NOw--LOOks Very
 Slow in Training

Boston, Oct. 30-(UP)-Confident of proving that they do come back sometimes-Jack Sharkey, former heavyweight champion of the world today swung into active training for Q comeback campaign.
 The 33-year-old squire of Chest nut Hill, who hasn't engaged in a fight since King Levinsky battered him into retirement two years ago last September, is slated to return to the ring in bout at Boston Garden about November 9.
 Winston to Help
 Jacks opponent may be the same King Levinsky or Unknown Win- ston, Hartford Negro. although Pat sy Perroni of Cleveland and John- ny Risko, the baker boy, are also under consideration. The New York Garden is said to be interested in staging Sharkey's new debut, but the chances are Jack will get start ed in the home town ring.
 T think everybody has gone over- board in saying that Joe Louis is the greatest heavyweight of all time," Sharkey said in discussing his plans. There are 8 number of heavyweights of the past who could have licked Louis and I for one be- leive I could have done it and can do 1t now. Louis has yet to receive any opposition. Baer made no ef- fort to beat him, while Camera was licked before he started. How can they say Louis is a great fighter when nobody has given him fight.
 As for Jimmy Braddock, Sharkey referred to the champion as an ex- sparring partner, and said he once kayoed Jimmy with big gloves.
 Persons who have watched Shark ey in training at a local gymnasium in recent weeks say that the squire has slowed down to such an extent that he shouldn't be rated as even 8 potential threat to any first-flight heavyweight. Jack has been out of the ring about two years, and hasn't helped his footwork any by standing for hours behind the counter of his North End tavern. He may be ser- tous in his intentions to reach the top again, or he may be out for little more easy money to break the monotony of bartending and piano lessons.
 Sharkey, fine defensive fighter but very much of an in-and-outer throughout his long ring career, won the World championship June 21, 1882, defeating Max Schmeling in a 15-round bout on Long Island. The next year Primo Camera strip ped Jack of his title by means of a six-round knockout. Sharkey att tempted a comeback after that, but retired in 1883 after successive loss- es to Tommy Loughran and King Levinsky.

Cincinnati will continue to play night baseball in 1936, and may be joined by the St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago Cubs, and Philadelphie Phillies.
 In the American league the St. Louis Browns and Washington Ser1- ators are said to be anxious to try noctunal basebell if they can get permission from other club owners,
 Red Out of Red
 Last season the National league gave each of its eight clubs per- mission to play seven night games at home. Cincinnati, which had been losing money heavily for sev- eral years, installed lights at Cros- ley field, and played one night game against each club in the league ex- cept the New York Giants. The Cardinals played two. At the end of the season the Reds were out Of the red for the first time in many years.
 The New York Giants were bitter opponents of night baseball, and re- fused to allow their athletes to par- ticipate. In making his stand against night baseball, Charles Stonehan, owner of the Giants, predicted ser~ ious injuries to high-priced stars, brawls between players and ur11- pires growing out of close desecions called by officials who were hamp- cred by the artificial lights, and complaints by fans who were ula- able to follow balls hit into the outfleld.
 Ford Prick, National league pres ident, and one of the leading ads vocates for the night game, has gathered statistics and reports on the games played by the Reds which show that not 8 single come plaint was made.
 No Complaints
 The lighting system at Crosley field was so effective,' said Prick, that not 8 player, umpire or fan made 8 protest against the night game. Some of the managers were so enthusiastic that they suggested to their club owners that baseball could be played as well at night as in the day time.'
 Prick pointed out that the intro duction of night baseball was not primarily for tfie purpose of bring ing immediate financial returns.
 Might baseball brings the game to the family he said. "The crowds at the Cincinnati games were dif- ferent than those at the day time games. The percentage of women was higher. And people who had never seen major baseball before had an opportunity to come to the games. This was particularly true of people who drove in from neaf- by towns"

William Cullen Bryant didn't wore 1t quite that way, but he probably would have had he lived in this day and been a sportswriter, and beer assaulted by the slush and mush and sliced baloney of the college football press agents. For folks those press agents really turn on the heat as the season heads into the November homestretch and the ,All-Americans and Rose Bowl looms ahead.
 Sit quietly of an evening these days and you can almost hear the groan of the mimeographs as the press agents shovel in the super 1atives. With the finish line in sight no halfback is too slow or clumsy to be 8 "darting light of flame who can run like a deer, buck like a tank, kick 85 yards in his bare feete, and thread needle at 50 yards with passes" and no line- men too fat and oafish to come whirling out the mimeograph as "a tall, rangy, diagnostician, all whale bone and whipcord, who is a terror on offense. and holy terro dou, u,bled in spades, on defense.".
 More Harm Than Good
 My guess is that this sort of eye- wash does more harm than good. A little of it might work all right, but too much makes 8 fellow Skeptical, and much too much brings on a fine case of upset stomach. I can think of several instances where too much ballyhoo cost a player a chance to make All-America. Take Pop Warner and his crack fullback, Dave Smuk- Ter, for example. Pop took one squint at Dave and began sounding off that he was twice as good as Thorpe and Meyers at their best. He built up such @ picture of an unacceptable juggernaut that when the experts went down to see him and he actually fell to the ground when tackled by three opponents, they went away muttering Hell, he can't be so hot" Pop had readied them for a peak at a play CT who was good for a touchdown every time he carried the ball.
 Then there was the celebrated case of Tuffy Leemans of George Washington last year. Tuffy, a whale of. player, had his All- America hopes spiked when an over zealous genius of the blurb pre- pared a Ringing Brothers poster Gin colors) on him, and mailed it to every sports desk this side of Jerusalem. One look at it, and you were gagged.
 Pick Press Team
 One of these days your correspon- dent is going to sit down and pick an All-America press agent team. And it's not going to be easy, for the field is alive with red-hot can- didates. There are a few certaipA ties, however. The St. Mary's boy is Q cinch, even though he can't hold candle to his predecessor, Mfr. Will Stevens. The present St. Mary's drum-beater claims only six All-Americans for his squad. MT.

The Tapiocans versus Italy war ii child's play compared to the battle between JenusaitIs ex-deputies and Bill Strokalaitis clowns. Ginsy Sav- ickas with 359, Orintas 349, Kopiczh 309 and Jenusaitis 329 gave them a team total of 1920 which was too great handicap for the clowns to overcome, Vitriol Sanda burned up the alleys with 335 as did Billy Glosky when he showed his old time form and hit for 321, as for the losing captain much could be said but 1t couldn't look good in print, you'sa Bill Strokalitis rolled the magnanmous total of 257, Yuskis 5 betted or 262 while Al Vailonis anchored an anchor score of 93-93 and 94, what for, Al?
 As easy as pulling teeth remarked capt. Dock Selens when they won three from Cy Decileskis tappers, better pep your gang up with what you sell Cy and maybe they will win few games for you. First I'd tell Yenkalun to talk less and bowl more, Cibulskis, Tomasaitis and Matthews need practice bad/ while Bill MaZaikas' 296 is no credit to him, wonder if wringing out sheets affected your form Bill.

 The stiffies are still knocking 'em dead, Tommy Delinks' morticians with Hank Kenausis, deputy Al Francis and Prisavage hitting the ceiling with their high scores took 2 out of three fro mpopping Pop zubras' peppers when the peppers failed to pop consistently. Although credit must be given to capt Zubie for his 367 and Al Enamait and Father Kripas who rolled 321 and 307 respectively.
 ' Bet nickel I take Hop Sheron over for 3 games remarked Atty. Clarence Blanda as his team cap- tained by John Yanavich took the floor against Fritz Dulskis bashful sextet, as Sheron went so went the team and Dulskis took 2 out of 3.
