became sole owner of the Detroit club.
while Col Jacob Rupert. owner of
the New York Yankees, became vice
president of the league.
To forecast the seasons race Sev.
eral months in advance is most diff.

What club or clubs can prevent Df-
trcit from winning its third concec1-
tive pennant?" How can I make such
a prediction at this time when We DO
not know how the eight clubs wHl
shape up at the start of the season?
A few trades or deals already have
been made. Boston bought Jimmy
Foxx, great patSman, and John Mar
cum, Philadelphia's best pitcher, in
addition to Infielder Eric McNair and
Outfielder Roger Cramer. Detroit has
bought Outfielder Al Simmons. Bos-
ton also consummated a deal with
Washington where it exchanged Out
fielders johnson and Reynolds for
Outfielder Manush. New York traded
Pitcher Allen for Pitchers Pearson and
Sundra. Other trades are, no doubt,
in contemplation. which may change
entirely the complexion of the 1886

the common fault Of thinking ahead

of a round it is difficult to cure. You
suddenly find yourself snatching even

But it really isn't the same swing

YOUR correspondent asked further
questions about the Terrible Turk
II appears that Ismail Youssof, weigh
ing more than 300 pounds in his prime,
came direct from the private rassling
stable of the Sultan of Turkey.
The sultan had big herd of ras-
slers for entertainment on Sundays
and holidays" said Prof Curley
"Youssof was taken from the stable
and imported to this country by
Antoine Pierri. who run stable OF
his own with Greek George and some
others. But when Pierri got to this
country his Turk was confiscated by
local managers.
THAT always happened to
Pierri. Whenever he got hold
of a Turk the Turk was con-
fiscated. It happened with
Nouralah and Jai Adali and
Mahmout"
The terrible Youssof toured the
cities of America and moved down
the opposition like a scourge-
He was a genuine Turk and a
genuine rassler." said Prof. Curley
There was nothing phoney about big
Youssof"
Prof. Curley paused again. He had
been giving our problem close thought
But I think it is safe to say that
the terrible Turk went down with the
Inflated liner La Bourgogne, he
stated at last. Anyways, he was on
the boat. There was nothing phoney
about big Youssof."
And what about the legend
that he was weighted down in
the water by belt full of $50
gold pieces?
LAS to that" said Prof. Curley. clos

and it may not be. but I am very

squirt at the outset of the season,

beset the White SoX in 1884, and,
with most of their regulars being in

down to fifth place. Cleveland was

Their passing reminded me Of a

back his back swing and his down

by Stanford rushing the passers, and
after that they could never recover
their mental balance for this one
game"
This is the first time it ever hap
pened to them" Bell replied. Il think
you're right. Our passing was jerky-
no smoothness at all-even on plays
which were not rushed. And our re-
ceivers were trying to run with the
ball before they caught it. Topping,
Moscrip and Muller had lot to do
with this-but not everything. The
one thing I feared was our mental
attitude and knew after the second
or third play it was bad-all out of

Too Many Games.
"EoOT BALL takes too much out of
the human system for any COL
lege team to play II or 13 games" Bob
Zuppke told me. 1T burns up lot
of emotion and in my opinion eight
games are enough-nine at the most.
We are getting too much foot ball in
too many places. The season used to
start around October ! and end by the
last Saturday in November. Now it
starts right after the middle of Sep
tember and ends New Year day.
THE great benefit from sport
comes in being fresh and keen
about what you are doing. Even
at its best, foot ball isn't much
fun.
1T is hard work, and the reason so
many boys play it comes from the dra-
matte side-the crowds, the excite
ment, the national interest in what Is
done. But too many teams are over
doing it. 1t is a fault we have to
watch, for it is too great a game to
be hurt.
Il hope they all get back TO an eight
or possibly nine game schedule. That.

Will Shoot at Records.
OWENS is almost certainty to win
the broad jump in the OlympicS,
He broke the world record for the
leap in the Western Conference meet
last May and should better his own
mark this year. Several veteran track
coaches believe that some day Owens
will make a perfect take off and do
27 feet.
Owens will get competition in the
Olympic jump from Eulace Peacock OF
Temple University and also from the
Japanese. but he should win handily
The metric system also will favor
Owens in the Olympics, for he is one
of the strongest finishers track has
known in years and for that reason
may find the 200 meters his best event
At any rate with Owens fresh for
the outdoor season, the old records
will be in grave danger.
Big Ten Basket Race Open.
WESTERN CONFERENCE basket
w ball teams soon will launch into
their regular championship season and
at this range it appears to be an open
chase for the Big Ten title. Illinois
and Wisconsin have shown up strong
in preliminary games. and Ohio State
with a fast, clever shooting squad has
pulled up as a dark horse. Indiana
also has displayed expected skill and
the four will be in the race right to
the finish.
Purdue, which seldom finishes far
out Of the championship, is not up to
customary strength. The Boilermak-
ers have a fine scoring team, but lack
the usual defensive skill of Lambert
squad. Purdue has been hard pushed
to win several of its early games and
dropped two in the East through leaky
defense.
Northwestern has coming team
made up OF juniors and sophomores
and by late season will be one of the
best in the Middle West, although it
likely will drop a few games in jan
uary. OF the other Big Ten teams,
Michigan may break into the first divi-
sion, but little hope is held for Iowa,
Minnesota and Chicago.
New York U. Team Sturdy.
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY must be
rated as one of the best teams
OF the season and. according to Nibs
Price, the California coach, Stanford
will be the strong unit on the Pacific
Coast. For the past several seasons,
Sam Barrys Southern California tear m,
has been outstanding, but now John
Bum has come along with squad
which may win for the Cardinals.
Basket ball interest is exceptionally
keen in the Midwest this Winter and
games preliminary to the champion
chip season have drawn fine crowds.
Once the Big Ten race gets we'll under
way, new field house records may be
