Heading the list is Lonesome

Veterans of Foreign Wars mile here
and in the Sugar Bowl features over
the same distance at New Orleans.
Munski, who includes the N. C.
A. A. mile and the last Princeton
invitation in his trophy list, def
nitely is the man to beat in next
Saturdays feature at Boston Gar
den, but there are others in the field
who must be considered.
For instance, there's Charles
"Chuck" Fenske, the former Wis
consm star, who won all the i'm
portant mile events last season.
Fenske was beaten by Munski in the
v. F w. event but he showed then
that he was rounding into the form
which carried him to stardom last
year.
Another Wisconsin entrant is
Walter Mehl, the divinity student,
who dropped from the longer dis
tances into the mile competition this
year and has produced some very
respectable races in his new spe-
cialty.

Pat, who started his foul-call-
ing career at Is in a Hoboken
athletic club preliminary when
an ofiicial failed to show up, now
works one game of almost every
collegiate double-header at the
Garden.
Because Of their intersectional
nature. these games are especial
ly tough to call. Pat explains:
Different sections interpret
the rules differently. Our big
gest headache, the block by a
player who has just passed the
ball, is a direct result of that
fact. In the East. players and
coaches agree that the passer,
after the pass, must not contact
the man guarding him, providing
the guard give the offensive man
3 feet in which to move.
The Western Interpretation
gives the passer more leeway
toward brushing his guard out Of
the play after the pass"

toward a universal interpreta-
ton on that and other trouble
some rules.
Speaking of rules, Pat is all
for the faster game (three times
as fast, he says now in effect
even if it does put a greater
strain on officials as well as
players. He explains that today's
official must be faster than the
play itself to keep on top of
the game. He must look ahead,
anticipate every move and be
there to see the play when it
happens.
