New Ways Found
To Treat Hay Fever

whiskey did not relieve his hay fever
it created a mental state in which he
didn't care. That is about all that
can be said for it. In most people 1t
increases the symptoms.
Local Remedies Used
Local remedies to the nose and
eyes: Douching with ordinary salt
water (nose) and boric acid solution
(eyes) gives some relief and washes
out the pollen accumulation.
Adrenalin solution to both eyes
and nose gives more but temporary
relief. Ephedrine has the same ac-
ton as adrenalin. Benzed'ime in
halations may have the effect of
clearing the nose. Estivin, a liquid
preparation Of rosa gallica (sweet-
brier) gives more local relief to eyes
and nose to more people than any
local remedy known to me.

Experts Up in Air. Tennessee
To Remain Mystery Eleven
Until Acid Test Is Met

Kentucky supposedly had a good
defensive line. 1t was heavy enough
and the Wildcats were steamed up
to outdo Custer. Yet Tennessee took
the ball twice in the first quarter
and calmly marched Al and "A yards
to score-stra;ght through the Ken
tucky line.
The Tennessee backs didn't look
particularly fast or shifty. Their
plays started almost lazily They
would fake the ball around, and
then one of them would go slicine
through the guards or off the tackles
for a first down Eventually they
would slide on across the goal line
They made it look so ridiculously
easy that the spectators felt after
ward that Kentucky must have had
the worlds worst line.
Well, it's either that-or Tennes-
see has the most perfectly timed
most deceptive attack anybody
ever saw Coach Bob Neyland, like
Hitler, possibly might have come up
with secret" weapon.
Vol Guards Extremely Effective.
The only clue this spy got came
from watching the Tennessee guards
now and then. Molinski and Suf-
fridge, during the two touchdown
marches, appeared to be knocking
down three or four men apiece
After they completed their de-
struction, the Tennessee ball car
rier slid through.
So much for a clear. concise de-
scription of the Tennessee offense
There is. then. the question of theil
allergy to forward passes. Ken
lucky completed 18 out of 80 at
tempted. Tennessee simply couldn',
cope with the aerials- until Ken
lucky threateden to score. Their
they knocked down passes like q
bear swatting bees.

of these elastic" defenses against
passes. Kentucky never did COM

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Dec. 2-The
Tennessee Volunteers will have to
remain the mystery team of football
until they demonstrate what they
can do against a really good op-
ponent. They almost are certain to
have that opportunity on New Year
Day in the Rose Bowl at Pasadena.
After the Volunteers beat Ken
lucky, 10 to 0. on Thursday at Lex
ington the main street of that COL
lege town rang with difference of
opinion about the muscular young
men from Knoxville. There was a
hot argument in practically every
square yard of the hotel lobbies. the
bars and the crowded sidewalks.
Views Directly Opposed.
"It is" one Tennessee celebrant
said solemnly, "the greatest football
team in history. You saw there to-
day a team the likes of which you
probably never will see again"
"Pfui!" replied weaving nom
believer. They've been playing
nothing but popovers. Those Ken
lucky boys were scared to death.
Look at those 18 passes Kentucky
completed. Southern Cal or some
team will make suckers out of them
in the Rose Bowl"
Pressed now and then for an opin-
ion. this correspondent said he SIM
ply didn't know. This not only was
diplomatic in the extreme, but it
was the truth. Does anybody know
about Tennessee? Are the Volunteers
the long-waited super" football
team, or has somebody been spiking
the punch?
All this observer knows is what he
sees. And those first two touch
down drives against Kentucky were
about the most impressive and puz-
zling events in a fairly long football
memory.

NEW YORK, Dec. IA short but

take place today.
The few games left, such as Ten

AS spectacle, there is nothing

BY tradition, it is the seasons clos
ing event, but there is some doubt
about the quality of the football, in
view of their records. In addition,
three or four major conference
games are on tap and one severe
test for Duquesne, one of II un-

will have to shade its regional
laurels. Tulane and Georgia Tech
are unbeaten in their circuit.

Curling Yankees
By EARL HILLIGAN,

CHICAGO, Dec. 2.-Baseball's S
bigwigs-the club owners-likely will
hike the ante" next week on the
portion of excitement they contrib
ute annually to baseballs winter
meetings.
Usually most of the news from the
December poW-woWs OF owners,
managers, scouts, ETC., concerns
player deals, but late next week the
1899 session of major league mag
mates at Cincinnati may take the
headline play away from the David
Harums.
Chance to Check Yanks.
Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain
Lands, rumor says, really may lay
the law down to number of club
officials for failure to toe the mark
in respect to baseball contract rules.
He certainly pulled no punches
when he fined Detroit, Brooklyn and
two other clubs a total of s2,500 the
other day for infractions, and some
say the outspoken diamond commits
sioner is going to do some verbal
blasting at the American and Ma
tional League joint session Decem-
ber g.
Clark Griffith, Washington's Old
Fox, is scheduled to bring up his
anti-monopoly plaa-and If the
owners want to do anything about
bringing those New York Yanks
down to a respectable level of effi-
cheney they'll have their chance
Griffith doesn't want the Yanks
broken up, but he is after some kind
of rule which would limit farm sys-
TENS and prevent the cornering Of
player talent.
Night Game Confab Looms.
Night baseball also will occupy
some place on the program Under
the rules each club cannot play
more than seven after-dark games
a season and the success of the ven-
ture at three cities in each major
circuit may result in an effort being
made to relax the regulations and
get in few more shots at the owl
customer money.
At the present. there is no indi-
cation that the type of ball to be
used-standardized now for each
league-will be matter for debate.
William Harridge, president, will
head the American League delega-
ton to Rhineland. Although the
majors will not go into action until
the minor leagues have their Mon
day through Wednesday session,
Harridge plans to sit in on a meeting

Grady Slated 10 Lead

Season Finale
West Virginia Slightly

Special Dispatch to The Star.


MORGANTOWN, w. Va, Dec. O.
Tom Grady, shadowy, nimble- footed
halfback, carried George Washing
tons hopes as the Colonials lined
up for their seasons finale today
with West Virginia. Coach Bill
Reinhart indicated that Grady would
bear the brunt of the attack against
the Mountaineers, with Eddie Villa
moski and Lud Urick in assisting
roles.
Grady has been working overtime
this week in an effort to perfect his
ball handling and Reinhart will turn
him loose. This is not exactly a
change in plans, for the Colonial
mentor realizes Wilamoski and Bob
Nowaskey have been secuted thor
oughly and will be marked men In
today's game. He hopes that Grady,
who has been impressive in only one
game-and that way out in Kansas
will take the home team by sur
prise.
A crowd of $500 was expected to
see the game and ceremonies honor
ing Ira Rodgers, who is celebrating
his twenty-fifth year on the West
Virginia campus as either player or
coach. Rodgers is the only all
America football player ever de-
veloped at the school, and fitting
tribute will be paid his long term in
the service of his alma mater.
The game also marked the end Of
Coach Marshall Glenn's tenure at
West Virginia. DR.. Glenn has indi-
Gated he will not return next year,
giving up football to resume his
practice of medicine, and official
announcement of his resignation Is
expected after the game.
All Of these factors, plus a pretty
good football team despite its rec
ord, made West Virginia a slight
favorite over the invading Washing
ton forces.

The kid Is all right.
Lynn Waldorf, head coach of the

De Correvont will become an out

completely develops great natural
ability.
In his first year of collegiate COM
petition, this 19-year-old tousled-
haired youngster did not make
single defensive mistake and gave a
remarkable. consistently good per-
formance in passing and kicking
He promises to develop into one OF
the graetest punters the Big Ten
has seen in years. He is an adept
quick kicker, getting away many
punts this season that sailed far
over the heads of safety men.
DOcS AL 1nlnES wei.
He averaged 43 yards kick, a
record which would have been
greater but for the fact that many
of his punts were directed &C
curately out of bounds to the coffin
corners" He completed 20 out Of
48 passes for 215 yards and on the
ground gained 279 yards on 50 at
tempts for a rushing average of 49,
He had his biggest day against
Minnesota, when he gained 96 yards
In 13 attempts for a 7-yard average.
AS a runner he displayed remark
able intelligence in picking holes
and feinting tacklers out of posi-
ton. Against Iowa he broke away
for long gain near the sidelines
with one of the finest bursts of
speed seen at Dyche Stadium in
years.
This is what Coach Waldorf
thinks about him: De Correvont is
a fine all-around back whose de-
fensive ability Is on a par with his
passing, running and kicking. He
has few equals on pass defense
He's an excellent kicker and his
work in this respect against Illinois

On City Titles in

Quurter-FinuI Bouts

A couple of new faces were thrust
souarelv in the limelight last night
at Turner's Arena where the 1lth
annual District A. A. U. boxing
tournament rolled by the quarter
finals marker.
The first belonged to Carl Ercoli,
unattached 160-pound novice, who
f1attened Lew De Wore of the Ma
tional Guard and the second was
identified as that of Tom Johns, st.
Mary's Boys Club, who outpointed
Tom Holland in the 135-pound
novice class.
Ercoh Tags De Wore.
Ercoli, tall, swarthy and as cool
as December morn, neatly avoided
De Vore's bull-like rushes in the
first round, shook him up in the
second with a fusilade of rights to
the head and finally dropped him
with a haymaker flush on the but
ton in the third. The winner took
on the luster of a potential cham
pion by his spectacular perform
ance, although the toughest part OF
the championship road is just
around the corner.
Johns, apparently beWildered by
Hollands aggressive tactics in the
initial round, finally solved his s.y4e
In the second with series Of whip
like uppercuts to the body. He fol-
lowed this line of endeavor in the
third round, slowing down Holland
and won easily. The st. Mary's lad
displayed good coaching and fine
competitive spirit and stamped him
self as one to be reckoned with in
final disposition of the honors.
Swami Barely Scores.
Kenny Swann's bout with Ray
Lands lived up to advance notices
with Swami getting a close decision
over his rival for the 135-pouno
novice crown. Lands tagged the
Police No. S clubman just before
the final bell with a hard right
that shook him to his heels and
but for the timely Intervention of
the gong might have put him
away. But Swami had the better
