Cornell Wants Change.

DOBIE'S foot ball contract has two
years more to run, but adjustment
will be made so far as this is con-
cerned, if it is decided to replace him
this year.
So far the so-called sentiment
sounding" canvass of Cornell gradu.
ates, as we'll as undergraduates, has
developed pronounced opposition to
Dobie's retention, although most foot
ball men, at the same time, feel that
Cornells gridiron decline is traceable
directly to a shortage of good material,
rather than any technical shortcom-
ings on Dobie's part.
Notwithstanding this and the wide.
spread high regard for Dobie's coach
ing ability, the feeling has grown at
Ithaca that a shake-up is now in
order.

Reconciliation Near.

SYRACUSE and Cornell celebrated
foot ball reconciliation three years
ago. after a lapse of more than 80
years. Cornell broke of with Colgate
in 1924, terminating a colorful and
natural rivalry
Some steps already have been taken,
but it may be another year or two be-
fore Cornell and Colgate get together.
These serious affairs of state take time
to work themselves out.
Dobie's position at Cornell remains
uncertain, but the signs now point to
the exit of the veteran Scot from the
domain he has ruled since 1920. Cor.
nell, in short, contemplates thorough
reorganization OF its foot ball set-up
as part of the new athletic administra-
tive program.
Nothing official has been forthcom-
ing yet as to DotJie's status from the

Besides, as his manager,
Sammy Goldman, pointed out.
the bout was held in Grand

"And Grand Rapids is Ramey's

Don't worry about that fight. Well

That's exactly what Ramey and his
constituents want Mr.. Goldman to do,
only they say ''do it now" The Grand
Rapids promoter, Bill Morrisey, has
offered the champion a guarantee of
$4,000 to defend his title against
Ramey in Grand Radips-or $4,000
if the fight can be staged in Detroit.
For Detroit seems to have adopted
Mr. Ramey's cause. If you ask me,
this city is trying to get a corner on
the championship market. Already it
has Joe Louis. greatest of all the

Both Are Overweight.

CANZONERI'S clever boxing and
sharp punching proved too much
for Garcia. Failing in an early shot for
knockout, Tony boxed carefully,
backing away from the Mexican's furi-
Gus rushes and spearing him as he
came in. He found an opening in the
sixth and landed a right to the jaw
that made Garcia's knees buckle. and
from then on Tony had things his own
way.
Brecio fought all the more furiously
after being speared the first time, and
outpunched the champion throughout
the remainder of the round. In the
seventh, however. Tony swung his
right again and Garcia went down for
a count of nine.
Canzoneri slung that damaging
right to the jaw twice more in the
eighth, and each time Garcia hit the
canvas. Only the end of the round
saved him then, and after he was
belted over twice more in the ninth
Referee Billy Kavanaugh called halt.

Ramey is a fast, dashing workman.

COURT FORM G0NE,.
BLUE IS UNDERDOG'
Lincoln Parkers Heavily
Favored to Win Public
High Series.
BY BURT HAWKINS.

w YHAT at the beginning of the

wv ball series loomed as the
crucial test of the season
for Easterr's veteran tossers now ap-
pears to be just a case of the Lincoln
Parkers pushing the middle valve
down again as they clash with Central
tomorrow at the Tech gym.
Central, in its pre-series trays, had
impressed its followers with some bril-
liant performances. Since, however,
Coach Jack Rays charges apparently
have gone to pieces.
Strongly favored to take Tech into
camp in their last series start, the
boys In blue were trounced, 1920, and
then dropped their second fray to
Roosevelt, 1920. In trimming West
ern, 1926, last Tuesday, Central
seemed to be on its way back to
form. Still, it is far from the club
that took the floor prior to the series.
Eastern Team Strengthened.
IN THE meantime, Eastern has
= gained additional strength in the
return of Reds Scheible. veteran
guard, who celebrated the mending OF
his broken finger against Roosevelt by
tallying is points.
Lavelle Dean, who scored % points
in the same game, appears to have hit
his peak and now gives the Lincoln
Parkers smother scoring threat to
team with Chick Hollidge, leading
scorer Of the series with 80 points IN
three games.
Bill Thompson, Bill vermillion and
Don Fones trio of possible Central
threats, face the not too pleasant
outlook of striving to crack what to
date has been a very tight defense.
Their task is not made easier by the
return of Scheible. Dean and Schel-
BILE give Eastern two of the best guards

Typical Foot Ball Situation.

IyplcaI OOt Bali SITUATION.
THE situation in which he finds
himself is typical of American
foot ball. where the ability Of the
non -combatants to take it" is sharply
limited.
Hanson has been head coach at
Syracuse for the past six years, after
gaining spectacular reputation as
an end. In that same period the
Orange has taken an annual licking
from its Maroon neighbors.
Twice Syracuse teams have gone
into the annual joust unbeaten, only
to emerge on the short end. But the
answer. say Hanson's friends, is that
Colgate has consistently had stronger
teams, not that there are shortcomings
in the Syracuse system.
Meanwhile prospect OF an upstate
big Three" agreement, involving a
renewal of Cornell Colgate gridiron
relations to complete tine triangular
entente with Syracuse, also is being
discussed.
