Special Dispatch to The Star.

A NNAPoL1s, Md, September
14.-Nine Of the 18 backs on
Nays foot ball squad this year are
from three States, Texas, Illinois
and Indiana, each furnishing trio.
From Texas are Newell Thomas,
Tom Edwards and Bolton (Rabbit)
Rankin, all feet youngsters who are
likely to see plenty service. Illinois
has sent Frank Case, a regular of
last season; Cy Enrich, a good
change back, and Art Franks,
200-pound tackle of the Plebes last
year, but being converted into a
pounding back this year.
From Indiana come Bob Antrim
and Charley Antrim, both of whom
loom as first choices in the back
field this season, and Bill Ingram,
scion Of the Nays most noted ath-
letic family, who lost most of last
season through injuries, but ap-
pears ready to go places this time.

KENTUCKY SEEKS END

LEXINGTON, KY. September IA
R.-Coach Chet Wynne is looking
for pair of husky ends to go with
a rugged line and as speedy a back
field as ever boasted by a University
OF Kentucky foot ball team.
Happy indeed would Wynn be if a
couple of fast-stepping 200-pound
f1ankmen showed up. He needs them
to carry out the style of play he
learned under Knute Rockne at Notre
Dame.
Wynn went far enough out on
limb to concede his squad, one of the
smallest in the Southeastern Confer
ence, would produce a better foot
ball team" than last year. He re-
marked it would make up in quality
for any numerical deficiencies.

Both Short Of Greatness.

NEITHER club is a great one, but
both are interesting specimens.
The Giants come out of q dead-ball
league, equipped with hitting power
that is average and pitching that is
better than average in its own circuit.
The Giants play for run at q time
and rely strongly on their double
play combination and the throwing
arms of their outfielders. They prac-
tice Bill Terry's close-to-the-vest
policies.
The Yankees draw chiefly on their
slugging power. Their runs must
come in patches. One tally means so
little in Yankee ball game that you
will find fielders playing their posi-
tions and managers mapping their
strategy in a manner entirely different
from anything seen recently in the
National League in like case.
Defensively, the Yanks depend
on what is known as pressure"
pitching, rather than . steady,
low-hit performance by the man
ON the hill.
The pitcher must have enough
stuff to bear down in the middle OF
enemy rallies and prevent them from
getting out of hand. In league where
the hitting Is strong and the ball
lively, those rallies are inevitable.

fight in the West in November, and
he is committed to an engagement in
Madison Square Garden on Decem-

is the likeliest choice for the Garden
bout. For November, the boys are
mumbling in a vague way about Baer,
the uncrowned king of the diving cir

but much too small to damage Mr..

OF Mr.. Abe Feldman. Yep, you guessed
it. Mr.. Caplin was willing to discuss
the fate Of Joe Louis when he climbs
into the ring-possibly in December
with MIR. Caplin's fighter.
"Abe Is faster and smarter than
anything Louis has seen yet" said
MI. Caplin shyly. HE will murder
him."
Since the whole world seems to be
leagued in plot to assassinate one
mild-mannered young Negro from De-
troit and impale his scalp upon the
highest spire in Christendom, it might
be well to study the nominees, item
by item, and weigh their chances for
a successful job of homicide. After
all, Louis fight with Ettore is not so
far off. and after that he will be
meeting up with these hooded killers
at the rate Of one q month.
At long range, the most dangerous
rascal on the list appears to be Mr..
Lew Tenders charming young ward,
Ettore. He gets his shot at the bomber
on the twenty-second Of this month,
in his home town, Philadelphia. Mr..
Ettore's record as a killer is no great
shucks, but there is another role for
which his equipment and talents suit
him eminently-the role of spoiler,
made popular by Mr.. John Risko, the
Cleveland baker boy.
Never a bride, Mr.. Risko used to
spoil wedding after wedding in his
capacity Of bridesmaid. He made a
practice of cutting prospective cham
pions to ribbons and setting their ca
reers back at least two years from
the date on which they met him.
They all looked bad against Mr.. Risko.
It was a feature of his style.
Career Destroyed by Ettore.
ETTORE has something of the same
sweet gift. He is no champion
himself, but he possesses a rugged
constitution and will throw leather
until they lock the place up for the
night. Single handed, he destroyed
the career of one Leroy Haynes, a
sepia sweepswinger who was being
groomed to fight somebody, prefer
ably Joe Louis, for the championship
Of the world. Haynes could do every
thing but lick Ettore. When he swung
on the Eyetalian's button for the third
time, and missed, he was out.
Ettore can make things equally diff
ficult for Louis If he swarms into

back to Matty's first turn on the

the bench, at the start of the century.
The Yankees were young in base ball
fame and bristling with wealth and
power, earmarked by destiny to set
the pattern of the game for the next
decade.
This may sound little
grandiose, but it forms the
background Of the world series
that is looming head Of us now,
granted that the Giants have
enough reserve strength to stand
off the final bids Of their COM
petitors for the National League
pennant.
If the Giants and Yankees meet
again, for the first time in 13 years,
it will be another series of contrasting
styles and conflicting managerial
theories. Perhaps, like its predeces-
sors Of 1921, 1922 and 1928, it will set

Phil Fights When Slapped.

IT'S strange, but Phil is at his best
when stacked up against fighter
who will pepper his prominent beak
rather frequently. He's inclined to he
too friendly with fighters who will
stay their distance out of respect to
his right hand and Phil is none too
pleasing to witness when he stands
of and tries to box.
Phil is a dangerous larruper when
aroused, but like Discovery, he some
times gets going too late. Leto should
make Furr mad and when Phillip is
angry there are few punchers more
colorful or capable. When it clicks,
his two-fisted attack to the body Is
one of fistiana's finest spectacles.
Furr, however, is slow to follow up
once he has staggered his opponent,
whereas Leto Is ruthless and merci-
less when his foe is groggy and reel
ing and a knockout punch almost is
inevitable.
Jimmy's record is evidence that
Portney did local ringworms with a
favor when he pulled out of sched-
uled 20-round bout with Furr. Leto
Is better fighter and crowd pleaser
than the light-hitting Portney.
