Lost Prestige Spurs
East's Gridmen in
National Strife
Ivy League Comes Top
Purely Sectional
Program Todoy
BY the Associated Press.

by VIC foSptihtfn fEtSS.
NEW YORK. Oct. 14.-Eastern
football, whose prestige has taken
some terrific wallops already this
season in intersectional games, seks
to regain some of its lost laurels
today.
Although half dozen of the
teams that figure on doing this bit
of boosting are listed to play in the
South and West, it's likely their
doings will arouse about as much
interest as the Ivy League" en-
counters that feature the all-Eastern
program.
Fordham, already edged out by
Alabama, unbeaten New York Uni
versity and Holy Gross, which took
terrific going-over from Louisiana
State last week. head the Southern
invasion, playing Tulane, North
Carolina and Georgia, respectively.
OF this group only Holy Cross can
be considered favorite.
Pitt and Duke Rated Even.
The Northern fans get their look
at the warfare with the South
when Pitt and Duke come together
at Pittsburgh. It's considered an
even affair, just lik their 1888 clash,
which blocked punt decided in
Dukes favor. and easily the stand
out among the days intersectional
games.
Harvard and Villanova lead the
trek West to play Chicago and Texas
Aggies, respectively. while George
Washington visits Butler. mighty
Carnegie Tech plays Case at Cleve-
land and West Virginia meets Gin
cinnati. On home fields, Temple
tackles Texas Christian, Catholic
plays Detroit, Rutgers takes on
Richmond and Boston University
meets Western Reserve.
Among the Eastern "old guard"
teams, Navy and Dartmouth clash
at Baltimore in game that gives
two potential Ivy League leaders
their first real test; Cornell, rated
the best in this unofficial circuit,
faces Princeton; Yale meets Penn
sylvania and Army visits Columbia.
Browns good looking team takes
on Colgate, an old rival outside the
Ivy group.
Georgetown Game a Headliner.
Another game that rates top bill
ing is Georgetown, unbeaten since
1887, against Syracuse, injury rid
den but still dangerous. Ranking
only little behind in interest are
such encounters as Manhattan
Duquesne, Penn State-Lehigh and
Lafayette -Muhlenberg.
The first upset of the week end,
counting out Boston Colleges CO.
lumbus Day defeat by Florida, came
last night when little st. Anselm
lost its first game since 1887. Amer
lean International, beaten twice this
fall, did the trick, 7-6, when Joe
O'Grady fumbled on an attempt
to punt, then ran 60 yards for
touchdown.

Freshmen football players of
George Washington have given their
alma mater first blood in the va
rious intracity collegiate rivalries to
be waged here this fall. They wal
loped the University of Maryland
yearlings, 2l-6, yesterday at College

1t was the second straight victory
for Ray Hanken's Little Colonials,
who scored in every period except
the third. And if Kaiserowitz
hadn't fumbled the opening Mary
land kickoff, allowing the Terps to
recover deep in G. w. territory to
set up the first score, the losers
might not have pierced the enemy
goal
The eventual winners came right
back with an 80-yard march to tie
the score, Goodman passing to
Lefkowitz for the touchdown and
Snyder's 100 kicking toe sent them
ahead to stay. Pinnow's passing
gave G. w. its other scores, Basini
taking the first from the 25-yard
line and Sorte the other from the Is.

Wade Spikes Rumor

Bv the Associated Press.

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 14.-Coach
Wallace Wade of Duke has no in
tention of retiring and turning his
job over to DR.. John B. (Jock)
Sutherland.
Persistent rumors since Suther-
land resigned his head coaching job
at University of Pittsburgh have
had him coming to Duke with Wade
quitting active coaching but remain
ing as athletic boss.
But Wade. bringing his Blue
Devils here for their clash with Pitt
today, definitely silenced the re-
ports with the assertion:
Il am going to hold this job Just
as long as I can OF course, l don't
know how long they will want me.
There are absolutely no plans at
the moment for a change in the
setup at Duke"
And that comes from tutor who
had a perfect regular campaign of
nine straight shutouts last season
and gained the first Rose Bowl bid
in history for the Durham team.

BY WALTER McCALLUM.

For a girl who has been playing
golf less than five years, and who
entered her first big tournament
only three years ago, winsome Mrs.
Walter R. Stokes is doing all right.
The success of the new Middle
Atlantic champion, who halls from
Indian Spring. is sufficient testi-
monial to the fact that long years
of hard work do not necessarily
precede championships Or that the
championship trail need linger
through years of trial and toll
For at least two years Mrs. Stokes
has been one of the best golfers in
this territory. or any other sector.
That she hasn't won anything in
the way of big titles could be blamed
on her indifferent putting. But
strangely enough. on Friday, the
18th, her putting carried Virginia
Stokes to the pinnacle of feminine
golf in this area-and the Middle
Atlantic crown.
Time after time in that final
round Yesterday at the Washington
Golf and Country Club, where Mrs.
Stokes toppled the Mid-Atlantic
crown from the blond locks of
pulchritudinous Marion Brown. the
new champion holed puts that
plenty of champions might have
missed. Her putting carried her
through to the crown as much as
series of accurately hit iron shots,
and pin-splitting tee shots. Vir-
ginia has had spells of bad putting
when three-putt green's became
nightmares. But her putting won
her the title just the same.
Perfect Putting Technique.
There were spots in that final yes
terday. at the second. the ninth. the
18th and 18th, where nothing but
perfection in putting technique
would do. A miss of one or two of
those puts, from five feet up TO ten
feet, would have been excusa bic.
But all of them dropped. And that,
in the last analysis, meant the
championship. And probably the
first of many titles for the soft
spoken Indian Spring matron.
So Indian Spring, the top club of
golf in this sector, gets another big
mug to hang up in its already bulg-
ing trophy case. If the Indian
Spring team wins the Maryland
state championship tomorrow, which
they should do, they'll have corner
on most of the golf titles in this
territory. Earlier in the year Roger
Peacock, brought to that club the
mems Mid-Atlantic championship.
A few weeks back Ralph Bogart sent
the District championship mug to
Four Corners. And now the Nc
Phail Memorial trophy, emblematic
of the highest honors in feminine
golf in this bunker -bordered terri
tory, goes to Indian Spring. The only
titles that have evaded the lads
and lassies of that club are the Dis
trict women's title and the Maryland
feminine crown.

Straight Off the Tee

| Not that the golf in that final
round was too good 1t didn't COM
pare, for example. with the tenseness
and the good shots made in the
Marion Brown-B Betty Meckley semi
final match, which Marion won on
the last hole, with score of 73.
Mrs. Stokes. out in AZ, turned three
up on Marion when the Manor girl
missed a tWo-footer for half on
the ninth. And Just when everyone
thought Marion was about to turn
on the heat and romp home in a
blaze of winning brides over the
last nine. as she had done the day
before, Mrs Stokes took the match
in hand. seized advantage of every
error blond Marion made. and won
three holes in row to close out the
defending champion on the 14th
green.
Mrs. Stokes made it the hard way.
too. She licked Mrs. Sloman, the
Maryland titleholder: Mrs. Lucille
Pray. who had beaten Mrs. Leo Wal

then she licked the defending
champion. The new champ is a

Precision Blocking and Foked
Spinner Dicks SpecioIties.

Harlow's contribution is twofold-
precision blocking and the ultimate
in taking on spinner plays. OF
these, his blocking methods are
more important. You have to have
material, great faker like the
Vernon Struck of two years ago, to
make the spinners 60 perfectly I'M
der the Harlow system. Even with
out material. however, his blocking
has paid dividends.
If Harlow had mine of football
gold at his disposal, like the South
ern California and Notre Dame
squads. his teams would be invin-
chile. AS it is, the Harvard players
are young. beardless and light. Be-
fore they can master Harlows doc
trines they are beaten in early
season games for sheer want of
power. Almost every season re-
Gently, however. they have come
back to sweep their last three or
four games in row.
Harlow blocking requires endless
practice. Once the boys have
learned their assignments perfectly
including the blind d-angle block,
which is clapped upon the enemy
back or lineman from point where
he does not see it coming-even
these light, young Harvard teams
begin to roll. 1t is hard to beat
technical perfection unless you meet
1t with more of the same.

Alumni Demand More Thon
Wins From Big Three Foes.

Harvard has beaten Yale in their
last two games, and butchered
Princeton en- route. That used to be
enough for the most exacting Har-
ward alumnus. But times are chang
ing. The ivy-objective games no
longer are all important. The old
time Crimsons fret and fume bver
earlv-season lickings by Dartmouth,
Army and Cornell. They point to
the unbeaten clubs in the neighbor-
hood.

over the 4-mile route, but everybody
else was licking Harvard in the
sprint races.
The alumni yelled for a coach who
could win the sprints as we'll as the
derbies. And they got him. in Tom
Bolles, late of the University of
Washington. This is an easier
trick to turn in crew than in foot
ball, for Harvard has crew material
and great crew equipment. In foot
ball-well. mere change of coaches
is not going to make the difference.

Doctor Would Foce Problem
Of Material SHORTAGE.

However. every alumnus believes
devoutly that change of coaches
will do exactly that. That's the rea-
son for the bloody coach-hunts all
over the country in December, for the
lynching parties. and the fast turn
over in the coaching profession.
When and If Jock Sutherland
takes the tiller at Harvard-and he
has been approached indirectly on
the subject-he1l face the old prob
lem. The doctor is smart. able, in
spring. and a hustler. Perhaps he
is capable of closer, warmer rela-
tionship with his squad than the
scholarly Mr.. Harlow. But he's got
to have football players. Maybe he
can get along without them, but
there's no way of telling. because, at
Pittsburgh, he never did.
The history of coaches at Harvard
In the last 20 years is by no means
reassuring to gentleman as canny
and sensitive as the good Scotch
doctor. They've come and they've
gone, always bounded by the mate
rial problem. II Harlow is out, even

HUSBAND LOST
 BUT WIFE WINS

Boston, May 26-(UP)-Mrs. Mi chael Lelos looked forward today to spending $195 as result of 8 card game in which she did not partici- pate but in which her husband was the loser. On New Years Eve her husband lost $65 to Nicholas Anas- taspoulas in card game. Anastas- poulas was arrested when Lelos charged he used marked cards. He was fined $100 in district court but won an appeal in superior court Yesterday Mrs. Lelos was awarded triple damages of $195 in a civil suit under an old statute which provides that the loser in gambling game may recover three times the amount of his losses from the winner.
