NOTED GOLF LINKS
TO BE LENGTHENED
Hoylake and Prestwick Are Due
for More Yardage-Little's
Play Brought Move.

By the Associated Press.
7 ONDON.-Two Of Britain's most
famous championship golf links
Hoylake and Prestwick-are to be
heightened.
The former course. over which the
1896 British open championship was
decided, Is to be extended to 7,10o
yards.
Hoylake, belonging to the Royal
Liverpool club. thus becomes the
longest championship course. Princes,
Sandwich, is next with $500 yards.
New teeing grounds have been con-
structed at Hoyiake and the deviations
made by . player will cause him to
cover = total of well over miles be-
for getting back to the club house.
In . championship six rounds are
played, 80 . competitor will walk about
30 miles.
AZ . result Of the amazing display
Of Lawson Little, who two years ago
went around Prestwick In Sc strokes,
while winning the British. amateur
championship. 1t was considered de-
sirable to extend the course.
Three new holes are being con-
structed and the distance will be
stretched from about $500 to $500
yards.

L y ington Pros apparently was
happy thought, for the recently signed
star already is beginning to pay divi-
dends. Yesterday Barry was an out
standing factor in the Pros scoreless
tie with the Richmond Arrows here
in q Dixie League foot ball game.
Playing for the first time under the
regime of Coach Gene Augusterfer, the
Pros completely smeared the running
attack Of the eague-leading Arrows
by bottling up the sensational Mush
Delotto, Richmond,s hArd-hitting back.
With Lee Carlin's punting holding
the Arrows at bay, the Pros waged .
bitter battle as Barry averaged II
yards as a ball toter after entering
the game late in the second quarter.
Each Team Threatens Once.
zach team threatened but once,
with the Pros reaching the Rich
mond 35-yard line in the third period
after Barry ran back . punt to the 80.
Carlin picked up 4 yards and
Murray Hammer then attempted .
field goal, missing the cross bar by
inches. The Arrows launched q coun-
ter-attack late in the fourth quarter
that carried from their own 20-yard
line to the Pros 20. where Barry in
terrupted the drive with an inter-
cepted pass.
The Pros drew but one penalty dur
ing the fray. losing S yards offside
in an exceptionally clean game. The
Arrows gained l35 yards, while the
Pros Melted l04. The Pros now are
tied for third place with the Baltimore

Vanderbilt Leader Fears

"A NASHVILLE, Tenn, November 2.
N The chancellor of Vanderbilt
VI University, leading figure in
1 Southern education for almost
half a century, predicted today that
II college foot ball continues to fol-
low present lines of development 1t
will pass out of existence.
1t will be replaced. said DR.. James
H. Kirkland. by professional foot
ball.
As evidence of the fact that his
prediction Is already being fulfilled
he cited the dilemmas Of many small
colleges which are being forced to
decide whether they will abandon the
game, continue to play schools with
which they cannot compete equally
or spend money developing q team.
Students Resentful.
THE more foot ball develops as .
public exhibition" the cham
cellor said. "the more 1t will be killed
as college sport. To see how this
works out you need only remember
what happened to base ball as q col
lege sport when 1t was professional
lied.
Twenty years ago it was said that
foot ball would never become profess
sional. Now there are professional
teams in the North and East which
are drawing 10000 to 10000 spec
tators every game.
"One result Is that persons who
want to see spectacular games are
driving colleges into . semi profess
sional attitude toward foot ball.
Resentment against overemphasis
Of foot ball has joined with q grow
ing indifference toward the college
sport on the part Of students" he
added. THE fellows who get up pep
meetings have hard time getting
the boys out now"

THE last universities to give up foot
ball. DR.. Kirkland said, will be
the big State universities, having TO-
900 or more students" because they
will be able to hold out longer in the
competition with professional foot
ball.
ut may be a good many years be-
fore college foot ball Is abandoned"
the chancellor added, but certainly
the tendency now Is in that direction"

Y1TH the foot ball season half
\h run. your correspondent
wv wishes to recommend q
few candidates for the con-
sideration Of the August solicitors of
all-America teams. when they retire
to the padded cells a month hence.
Our No. / candidate Is Samuel
Francis. the left-handed, shot-throw-
ing fullback Of Nebraska. Francis
won all-America consideration on his
performance against Minnesota alone.
For almost the full 60 minutes, Fran
els great punting and defensive play
stood of the Gophers, and it is
pertinent that he was gone from the
field when Minnesota scored the win
ming touchdown. And while on the
subject of Nebraska, am looking for
. better center than Charles Brock,
the husky sophomore, whose defensive
play was second headache to Ber-
nard Bierman of the Minnesotas.
Bierman does not know of a better
center, and you'll find no keener
Judge of foot ball talent that the
Gopher coach.
Two Excellent Tackles.
I'D WIDSETH of Minnesota and
Averell Daniel of Pittsburgh are
the best tackles seen in many a moon.
Widseth never has lowered his colors
to any rival in three seasons and the
yardage made over his position can
be computed by a third-grade pupil.
Daniel was outstanding against both
Ohio State and Notre Dame and those
teams offer q fair test for any tackle.
Matisi, the other Pittsburgh tackle,
Is only a shade behind Daniel and
may surpass him before the season
Is finished, but at present the senior
has the call.
Scouts and officials report that
Dave Davis of Southern California is
far and away the best quarterback
seen this Fall. Davis does the bulk Of
Southern CALIFORNIA; running, driv-
ing, passing and kicking, is q smart
Held general and a good hand on de-
tense. He Is rated a miniature Gus
Shaver. and no higher compliment
can be accorded any Southern Cali
3ornia player.
Marshall Goldberg, the 18-year-old
sophomore left halfback of Pittsburgh.
probably is the best back the East will
produce this season. A slashing, driv-
ing runner, he was the. star of the
Notre Dame game and outstanding
against Ohio State. He must be rated
high when the final reckoning is made.
By all odds the best back in the
Big Ten is Cecil Isbell of Purdue.
Playing with the handicap Of lame
shoulder, the big boilermaker played
sensationally against Minnesota and
even In defeat was judged the best
back on the field.
