n YEW YORK, october 24.-The
nj touchdown industry barely has
" achieved the halfway mark
4 ' for 1886, and Harvard has lost
only a single game up until today.
but already the wolves of Cambridge
are bowling and demanding the car
cases of Dick Harlow and Bill Bing-
ham for boiling -in-oil purposes.
1t was a week ago today that Johnny
Harvard met his first real test of the
season and was f1attened by Army, 80
to 0, but New York still Is buzzing
over it.
Never, say veteran Gotham
ties who qualify as experts on
tn subject, have they heard such
robust, full-toned and vicious
bowling.
Harlow is known as an expert on
birds, but probably never before has
he had such as he Is hearing now,
if you get it. He also Is known-or
was, when he coached at Western
Maryland-as a bang-up foot ball
coach. But up at Harvard he is get
ting no place fast, as far as turning
out successful teams are concerned.
and the undergraduates and the old
grads want to know how about it?
Even Magicians Have Limitations.
THIS is the year that Harlow is sup
posed to have reached his stride
at Harvard. At Western Maryland
they said Dick was great at pulling
running halfbacks and high-powered
lines out of hat. and they expected
him to do the same things at the
broad-a plant. 1t develops, now, that
not even Richard can do this with the
material at hand.
He got off to a good start and Har-
ward whipped Amherst and Brown.
Then, last week, Army gave the Grim
son its going over. BY the time this
sheet puts a dent in your door Har-
ward may have staged a grand come
back and beaten Dartmouth, but it
was doubtful.
Dartmouth figures to beat
Harvard, and 50 does Princeton,
Navy and Yale, who, together
with Virginia, remain on the
Crimson schedule.
The old grads must sense these i'm
pending reverses, but why the clamor
for the scalp of Harlow Is mystery
When Harvard plucked him from
Westminster, Md, everybody who
knew. or thought he knew, foot ball
said that great move had been made.
That Harvard had chosen wisely for
the coach to put 1t back in the big
time. Well, nothing has happened yet
to disturb this opinion in the minds
Of most people.
Eli, Tigers Pass Harvard,
WHAT Harvard neglected to do was
" to provide Harlow with grade A
material, or at least let Dick help in
picking his boys. What they did at
Cambridge was to hire a good coach
and continue to book a good schedule
and pray that Magician Harlow could
make good foot ball players out of
bona-flde students.
This is something that not even
Harlow could do. At Yale they gave
foot ball the needle and the Eli this
season has beaten Cornell and Penn
and Navy.
At Princeton they may not
have combed the highways and
by-ways for material but at the
same time IL Is doubtful II gOod
foot ball players were discour-
aged.

the issue. Reeves was not known to the

with only Maryland rated an even
chance to win. Some Of the writers
have picked the Terps and others have
named the Orange, so it appears to
be a stand-off.
However, the pickers have been
prone to give slight edge TO New
York U. over Georgetown and 10 rate
Mississippi shaky favorite over Cath
olic U.
Home folks, though, see a different
light on the Georgetown and Cath
olic U. games and expect them TO
come through on top after hard bat
ties, with the Cardinals having the
rougher going. The long trip and
the change in climatic conditions are
likely to have retarding effect on
Dutch Sergman's team.
Georgetown went to Gotham yester-
day, practiced there for today's battle
with the Violets, and probably would
have gone into the combat as the
favorite were not John Fleming. the
Hilltoppers' star kicker, on the injured
list and unlikely to play. His booting
had been counted upon to be a
tremendous factor. The Violets still
will have to contend with Tom Keat-

NEW YORK, May 2.-Recent
widespread predictions that Lefty
Grove would come back this sea-
son seem to have been slightly in
error. He has already arrived.
Apparently as good as he was in
1891, when he scored 81 victories,
and showing no sign Of the arm
ailment that threatened his pitch

only eight, the tall, solemn man

Grove not only has won each oil
his four starts, but he has allowed
only three runs and has hurled two

Bests Indians
He pitched his second Shutout
yesterday, 60, against Cleve
land and allowed only seven
spaced hits to keep the Sox in
the league leGd and to cause
further speculation as to what
Cleveland Is going to do.
The Indians started the season
as threat to the other pennant
hunters, but when they bumped
into Grove yesterday they met
their fourth straight defeat and
fifth in seven games. In fact
the Indians have scored only two
runs in their last four starts
their batting power disappearing

The Red Sox nicked Harder
and Winegarner for 10 safeties
and won without too much diff
Guilty.
While Grove and the Boston
club were thus both making il
four straight, and pushing the In
dams back, the Yankees chung to
second place by scoring their fifth
straight in the series opener with
the Chicago White Sox, 3 to 2, in
a hurting duel which Johnny
Broaca won from the veteran Ted
Lyons.
The Detroit Tigers kept up with
the parade, despite injuries that
have laid low Mickey Cochrans
and Hank Greenberg, and beat
Philadelphia, 4 to 8. The Tigers
were out-hit by 8 to z, but took
advantage Of a wild throw to push
over the winning run.
Dodgers Lose
Brooklyn's Dodgers ran UP
against another Dean, the second
in two days, and lost again, this
time to Dizzy, IL to 0. Dizzy al
lowed only three hits and pitched
his third victory in four starts fol

Two home runs by Gene Moore
gave the Boston Bees a 6-to-A
margin over the Pittsburgh Pi

little success while facing Shutout

the eighth.
Lefty Grissom, a rookie south
paw, made his major league de-
but for Cincinnati and was cred
tied with a 4-to-3 victory over
Philadelphia, although he was
yanked in the ninth. Tommy
