Doubts Present Vol Eleven
is Up to 1888 Standard

To be quite frank, I doubt that
Tennessee's present squad is up
to the 1888 standard. The four top
men on that team were Wood,
Cafego, Suffridge and Bowden
Wyatt.
All four were All-America en-
tries. Wyatt and Wood are through.
Cafego and Suffridge have been
out of action for several weeks. and
their physical condition still is
doubtful.
But this still is-and will be-a
good football team. Also it will
have to meet a good football team,
rested up from the stretch driving
against Notre Dame, Washington
and U. c. L. A. Southern Cali
fornia will be a different team on
New Years Day, a better team than
1t has been since Notre Dame.
No matter how big the squad,
you have only so many Harry
Smiths, Grenny Lansdells, Bad
News Cafegos and Suffridges-out-
standing performers.
But again the main point is that
vast horde of Tennesseeans are
coming a long way to see this game
They may recall that just year ago
an unscored-on Duke outfit came
along the same route, to be beaten
IN the last 20 seconds of play. But
they feel, and I agree with them,
that Tennessee is better than Duke
was-just as strong defensively and
better off on the offensive side.

By BURTON HAWKINS,

A faint suspicion the Mats were
an inept baseball team last season
was confirmed today with the re-
lease of official American League
fielding records. Microscopic scru-
tiny of stacks of statistics fail to
reveal any f1attering items in con-
nection with the Washington entry.
The Mats first basemen, for in
stance, were a feeble lot individu-
ally and collectively. Bob Prichard,
the fugitive from Charlotte, was the
best of the crop but finished we'll
down the list and participated in
only 26 games. Ossie Bluege, Jim
Vernon, Sammy West and Jimmy
Wasdell, who also shared that sta
ton, captured four of the six bot
tom positions. George McQuinn of
st. Louis earned the top spot.
Wasdell, who was shipped to Min
neapolis in midseason after COM
hitting one of his less polished
plays to arouse the ire of Prexy
Clark Griffith, came in last on the
list and, in addition, set a season
record and tied time -honored ma
)or league mark by bobbling four
chances at first base on May 3.
Washington, seventh ranking
fielding team, was first in complet-
ing double plays, 1877 of them, but
that wasn't considered particularly
outstanding in view of the fact that
the Mats base paths were crammed
rather frequently. Washington also
led the league by wide margin
with 26 passed balls, St. Louis, the
next in line, having II.
Jimmy Bloodworth. who split Sec
ond base assignments with Buddy
Myer, outfielded the veteran by .972
to 1868, but outfielding both of them
were such performers as Charley
Gehringer of Detroit, Ollie Bejma
of Chicago, Bobby Doerr of Boston
and Jackie Hayes of the White Sox.
Gehringer finished in first place
with .977 average, with Doerr only
a point behind.

Rifle Honors Nabbed
By Maryland n. G.,
Natcap Teams

Rife teams of the Maryland Ma
tional Guard and National Capital
Rife Club rolled up winning scores
in the District Rife League to top
teams of the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing and Experimental
Model Basin.
The Maryland Guardsmen scored
S67 for their four men over the
30-shot course. against an even 900
turned in by the Bureau squad.
The Natcaps, piling up 1,061
points, scored easily over Expert
mental Model Basin, which slipped
to an 1886 total.
High scoring individual was
Gehrman of the National Capital
Club. whose 276 was best by 10
points.
Leading the Engraving and Print
ing team was Dellinger, with 234;
Barker topped the Maryland
Guardsmen with 258. and Myers
of Experimental Model Basin led
his group with 231.

Washington Club OutfieIds
Only HopIess Athletics

Buddy Lewis of the Mats finished
ahead of only jim Tabor of Boston
and Pinky Higgins of Detroit among
regular third basemen, making 80
errors for an average of 1888. Cleve-
lands Ken Keltner, who recently
applied for relief there, didn't need
any on the field, topping his depart
ment with .974.
Cecil Travis, the Mats shortstop,
who was ailing much of the season,
trailed only frankie Crosetti of the
Yankees and Joe Cronin of Boston.
Travis 1853 was 10 points below the
leader, Crosetti.
Fielding honors among the CATCH
ers went to Bill Dickey of the YAM
KEGS with mark of $3.50 for 1874
games. Dickey tied the major league
record for most consecutive years
catching 100 or more games, IL,
equalinz the record. also shared by
Ray Shalk and Mickey Cochrane.
Angelo Giuliani led Washington re-
ceivers with percentage of 979 in
so games, while Rick Terrell led the
league in passed balls with 10.
Pacing the outfield pack was the
Yankees George Selkirk, who had
percentage of .989 for 124 games,
although West of Washington field
ed 1892 in SO games in the outf1eld.
Taft Wright was the worst Wash
ington fielder, with $50, while
George Case was only five points
ahead of him.
The Mats remain consistent to
the bitter end. for their pitchers
also were stumblebums in the field
ing department. Alexandra Carras-
quel, with 972, and Dutch Leonard.
with .971, topped the Washington
hurlers, while AL Milnar of Cleve-
land led the league with perfect
handling of 43 chances in 81 games.
Only Philadelphia committed
more errors than Washington, the
Mats miscuing 205 times to the Ath-

paced clubs in that respect, max

Figure Tennessee BELONGED
in Rose Bowl Lost Year

In my opinion, the Tennessee
team OF 1888 was a much stronger
delegation than either Duke or
Southern California in the last
Rose Bowl meeting. I mean by at
least 10 points.
1t may be that Southern Cali
9ornia is stronger than it was a year
ago, that Tennessee isn't quite as
good on the offensive side. But
these wandering, restless, football
fans from the Volunteer State can
see only one answer. I'll say again
that you can't blame them.
They belonged in the Rose Bowl
either Tennessee or T. C. ia
year ago, and they've been pack
ing for this trip for the last two
months-ever since the Alabama
test. I was in Knoxville at that
time, and I know how not only the
team but most of the population
felt. We'll meet you in Pasa-
dena," was the last farewell I drew.
I believe most of them will be here,
one way or another.

George Washington's courtmen

A. e. M. by a 1888 margin, but
there is neither wailing nor gnash-
ing of teeth in the little tin taber-
nacle where Coach Bill Reinhart
breaches his basket ball doctrine.
Remnant feels, and rightly so, his
boys did all right as far as they
went, but just happened to fall a
little short.
Rated one of the most formidable
teams in the Midwest and appear
ing here on the homestretch of a
3,000-mile transforming tour, with
the scalps of New York City COL
lege, La Sale and Duke dangling
from their belts, the Cowboys tried
to turn on the steam last night and
the valve stuck. They did pull into
a seven-point lead in the last min
ute and half, but it was no run
victory. 1t was hard-fought af-
fair.
Experience was the deciding fac
tor in the nip-and-tuck fray and
Oklahoma had more of it than its
host.
COlOnials Push Veterans.
Coach Hank Iba used four seniors
in his starting lineup, and. despite
the downtown schools greenness
needed them most of the time, as
the defending forces chung logged
ly to the visitors heels. A plentiful
supply of talent decorated the Cow
boys bench, but he substituted eau
tiously, trying to protect a slim
lead. Only once were the Aggies
as much as nine points in front
and most of the time only a scant
basket or two separated the teams
Oklahoma had everything the
Colonials lacked, including enough
seasoned reserves to keep the Dis

way. The Westerners moved the
ball deliberately, cleaving through
George Washington's defense with
Well-timed passes and pick-offs
They spun shots through the net
with a peculiar hook action over
the neck, and when pressed sent
them swishing through from long
range.
1t was couple of direct hits

and with flick of the wrists sent

G. w. groans. That made it 27-21
in Oklahoma's favor, and proved
to be all the Cowboys needed.
George Washington staged a sur
prising comeback, however, pulling
up within four points of it's guest
at 1882. And when Matt Zunic
matched Jim Egglestons field goal,
making the count, 1874, the Aggies
had to wheel out the heavy artil-
lery. Two charity losses by Vern
Schwertfeger and a goal by Gene
