Cuffs Field Goals Win For Pro Players Before
 4O,4S2 Fans
BY LESLIE AVERY

United Press Stan COrrespOndent) New York, Sept. 8.-(UP) Pro fessional football prestige mounted today after the New York Giants 60 triumph over an eastern college all-star outfit.
 Reputation of the pro grame had been tarnished somewhat by two preseason college victories over the National League champion Wash ington Redskins. But the Giants came through with their third straight victory in the New York Herald Tribune's third annual charity game.
 It took two field goals, both bet ter than 40 yards, to give the pro- fessionals the decision in game that would have been dull except for the fierceness of the line play The unerring toe of Ward Cuff former Marquette halfback. was the margin of victory. Before a crowd of 40, ,482 he split the uprights with a 43-yard boot in the second period and gave the Giants their second counter with a 42-yard placement in the fourth. Big Ed Danowski held the ball both times.
 Fine Line
 The victory would have been more decisive had 1t not been for the sterling work of Fordham's Alex ander Wojciechowicz and Ed Franco, and Pittsburgh's Tony Matisi. These three linesmen checked the Giants running attack time and again, al- though Andy stopper, Villanova's s great halfback, won the newspaper mems vote for the most valuable player on the collegiate team be- cause of his offensive work. Cutf was the unanimous choice for the most valuable Giant player.
 It looked like the All-Stars might score in the first period when Leon- ard (Foots) Barnum, Giants fresh- man fullback from West Virginia Wesleyan, fumbled on his owne 26- yard line, but they could not pene- trate the pro line, and Pitts Frank Souchak missed 3l-yard try for a field goal. He missed another from the 25-yard line later in the same stanza, and thereafter the Al-Stars never got past midfield.
 The Giants took complete charge after those two scoring threats, and were headed for a touchdown with the ball on the collegians' six-yard line as the half ended.
 "BOner"
 On two other occasions the Giants were close enough to attempt passes over the goal line, but one was knocked down and the other, which came on fourth down in the last period, was foolishly intercepted by Wojciechowicz who got out only to the eight yard line. If he had batted the ball to the ground, 1t would have been brought out to the 20
 The Giants outgained the All- Stars i4i yards to 62, picked up 61 yards by the completion of 10 out oi 23 passes. The collegians tried IA aerials and completed only six for 56 yards. There was no brilliant broken field running, longest run be- ing Tuffy Leemans 42-yard runback of an All.star punt in the third period.

team, in commenting on the Ger mantown grass courts where the challenge round was held, said: |: They have the makings of some fine clay courts if they'll only pull up a few weeds" If you can get fairly good odds--4 or s to 1, say 1t might not be a bad idea to wager a bob or two that Donald J. Budge will be beaten at Forest Hills.
 The history of 1882 might repeat itself, that being the year Ellsworth Vines, supposedly invincible, fell be- fore Bitsy Grant. Vines was over-tennised and worrying about his future at the time. and Budge has the same frets today. If you ever saw champion ready to Do taken 1t was Budge on the final day at Germantown. Even his backhand, the mightiest shot in ten- his, was shot Was 1t a brook or Tommy Hitchcock that Tenny- son had in mind whe nhe wrote his lines about going on forever?" MT. Polo, as Hitchcock is known to the polo writers, has been rated at 10 goals for the past IS years, but he still is the best all-round player in the world. Do ball players make the manager, or Is Mir. Terry a genius only in alternate years?

Today's Sport Parade
By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

New York, Sept. 8-(UP)-Putting khe sports shots here and there: There is one umpire in the American league who will tell you that the thief reason Joe Mccarthy is a great manager and the Yankees are cake walking home in the American is hat Joe insists that his boys hit 'cripples" .. by 'cripples" I mean 'cripples." By "cripples" l mean he fiat" balls pitchers toss up to he plate when they are behind the batter-when the count is three balls md one strike or two balls and no strikes. All the other managers n the league except Mccarthy take he "cripples," hoping for a walk. But Joe's command is Tree of, boys, whenever you see one you Ike" As a result the Tanks are he top long distance clouters and |un getters in the league.
 On the Carpet
 General John J. Phelan, the re- fred underwear manufacturer who governs the New York boxing com mission, has started summoning writer's who criticize him to a hear ng before the board. He sends but his requests for Q command per- ormance by wire, and the telegram ompanies are getting rich. .. You an count the day that doesn't see one boxing writer taking e poke at The general. Bobby Jones is in own, closing Q deal for Q Chesa- beake retriever, and 1t is his opinion hat his fellow Atlantan, Charley Yates is the man to beat in the lational amateur golf tournament which starts in Pittsburgh Monday. Bobby said that Yates, all of sudden, changed from just 6 good offer into Q great one shortly be- ore sailing with the Walker cup cam a few months ago. .. Seemed b find himself and settle down al- host overnight. The amateurs, V the way, won't have to play the anne tricked up Oakmont course hat the pros did in 1885. The 6. G.
