I DOWN THE LINE
. WITH W. O. McGEZHAN
(Copyright, 1029. New York Tribune. Inc.)
A Deathless Legend.
OI.D grads who still believe in Santa Claus and the great intercollegiate
legend. ‘Td die for dear old Rutgers.” died hard. They are «Ull
insisting on the authenticity of this myth and continue to offer testi
mony to the effect that some Rutgers foot ball player, whose identity
still Is unknown, did, during the course of a football game, offer to
I make this final sacrifice for the alma mater.
Now' comes Mr Will Cunningham, the author, who once centered with
distinction on a Dartmouth foot ball team, with his version of the historic
utterance He insists that it was a Dartmouth team, and not a Princeton
team, a* alleged by Big Bill Edwards, that inspired this lofty sentiment on
the part of the Rutgers undergraduate. Mr. Cunningham writes:
"You come along and help tie the can to the ‘l’d die for dear old
Rutgers ’ which is as much a part of collegiate folk lore as that other
classic about how the late Mike Murphy inspired a Pennsylvania team to
play better than It possibly could by assuming a cough that was even
too serious for O’G’s to rectify by bfgging them to go out and win this
one that he might, pass out in peace.
-But since you’ve started the thing, you can do what amounts to a
great public service by asking your readers —their name must be legion—if
anybody really and truly knows where, when and If actually that Td die,
etc.,’ phrase w’as ever spoken. There seems to be at least some reason to
believe that it really was flung to the breeze on a crisp afternoon by an
earnest undergraduate over in New Yorks suburban murder belt, and not
in a bitter contest between Princeton and Rutgers, as Hon. Mr. Edwards so
brazenly claims, but in a polite little practice tilt between Dartmouth and
Rutgers. Such is a story that still lingers in Hanover.
"According to it, Dartmouth’s Big Green team, which in those days fol
lowed copy, was off on a week’s tour. That was before the opulent era of
private Pullmans and popping treasuries, and when Dartmouth fared forth
to play out-of-town foot ball they crammed three or four games into a single
trip. They were en route from one campus to another, riding day coaches,
and, having a vacant afternoon, they besought and obtained the hospitality
of the Rutgers plant for a little muscle-loosening.
"One coach or the other suggested that the New' Jerseyites and the
Green indulge In a friendly practice scrimmage for the general good of
both clubs And the affair started in friendly enough fashion. Just as in
one of those friendly sparring matches where two gentlemen agree not to
to strike the face or pan. and not grow too energetic only to wind up by
socking each other with everything but the home telephone, this friendly
scrimmage waxed warmer and warmer until the two clubs were kicking
the stuffing out of each other.
“In particular, an undersized Rutgers tackle was taking an awful mauling
! from a hammer-handed Dartmouth end—they came big in that era—and. after
; one especially vicious slam in which he was picked up ,J h * * c ™*
neck and the slack of the pants and thrown like a bowling ball into the path of
his oncoming backflrld. he is alleged to have arisen to his feet, picked up a
piece of his ear and to have thrown to posterity that deathless phrase, I d die
for dear old Rutgers.’ . ....
“I don’t know that this version is the real McCoy either, but I suggest that
Mr. Clarke Tobin of No. 2 Park Avenue, be given a piece of the floor. He_ali-
Amerlcaned for three seasons beside a character known aS Ben Lang. Ben
iamin. whose present location fails me. Ben is supposed to be the hard-hearted
egg who offered the equally celebrated response, 'Well, come on and die, you so
forth and so on.’ ”
The Martyr of Rutgers.
O 1 F COURSE, the letter of Mr. Cunningham reopens the discussion as to the
existence of the Martyr of Rutgers. Mr. Cunningham, apparently, was
unwilling as an old grad of Dartmouth to let an old grad of any university get
awav with the claim that any team but the Big Green team could have created
such havoc on a foot ball field as to have Inspired such a sentiment In a member
of the opposition. . ~ . ... , .
I have no doubt that in the immediate future there will be filed claims
from the alumni of other universities that It was one of their teams and
neither a Princeton or Dartmouth team, that inspired the immortal sentiment.
Rutgers, during the course of its existence, has played many foot ball teams.
In fact, the first game of American intercollegiate foot ball was the game
between Princeton and Rutgers. , , . ...
If the thing goes far enough there may be old grads claiming that
the sentiment was not uttered by a Rutgers student at all. Remember,
there have been foot ball teams from the Atlantic and Pacific, and all
of these teams have old grads always ready to claim and to defend for
them—especially to claim. , , ~ , ...
But the slogan w-as wished on Rutgers first, and If there is no really
authenticated claim the slogan w'ill remain by the banks of the Old Raritan.
In that event the legend is w’orthy of perpetuating in enduring bronze or marble.
Before the thing becomes more complicated they should erect the statue of a
student in the act of dying for dear old Rutgers on the campus. \
And Princeton might have the companion statue of a foot ball player
expressing the sentiment. "Come on and die, you so forth and so on.

TURNESA SNATCHES
BIG TILT FROM FIRE
Wins Four Straight Holes to
Score Over Jolly in
British Event.
BY P. I. LIPSEY,
Associated Pres* Staff Writer.
MOORTOWN, England, May 18.—
The United States won a glorious golf
ing victory here today because Joe
I Turncsa, courageous young professional
j from New York, did not know when
he was beaten in the thousand quineas
I tournament of the Yorkshire Evening
j News, in which the cream of the
world's professionals played. Turnesa
! triumphed over Herbert Jolly at the j
; 37th hole.
! The British veteran was dormie 3
at the 33d hole and was apparently
i marching to certain victory over the
| youthful American pro when the New
j Yorker overturned all the laws of prob
abilities and won four successive holes
i to snatch the trophy from Jolly’s out
; stretched hands.
Tumesa's performance throughout
j the long and closely fought struggle
had been marked by alternating flashes
; of putting genius and spasms of wlld
i ness with his long irons.
Jolly Falters at 34th.
W'j n Joe pulled his Iron shot from
j the tee at the short 32d hole to land
ar/ng the trees beyond the green, to
! tl 4 crowd It spelled his doom. Jolly
there went 3 up and immediately halved
the next hole to become dormie. But
the Britisher faltered at the 34th, where
both were on the green with their
seconds. Jolly being nearer the hole.
Turnesa sent his putt nearly dead,
while Jolly’s ball stopped 18 inches
away. The Briton had another putt to
end the match with victory, but after
a little tap the ball remained on the
! lip of the cup. Even then he half
j stymied his opponent, but Turnesa deft
j ly pushed his ball Into the cup for a
reprieve.
i Again at the 35th Jolly was nearer
the cup in 2. but his never-say-die op
ponent ran his 35-foot putt down, while
the home player missed his try at half
I that distance.
All Even at 36th.
After this double and unexpected res
pite for the visiting golfer the huge
i gallery swarmed around the home hole
I to w itness the final killing. Jolly was
| longer from the tee as usual, but the
| American slammed his second 200 yards
; to the hole and 12 feet beyond. The
i Britisher then pitched into a bunker
: at the right side of the green and play
ed his third without reaching the green
Joe had an easy four and brought the
match level when it had been against
| him all the afternoon.
Now the visitor's stock was high with
i the crowd, but Jolly appeared recovered
! and slashed two tremendous shots to
i the 500-yard extra hole—the first.
Turnesa's second stopped short of the
green and at least 20 yards from the
cup. He studied the line with great
deliberation and then sharply struck
the ball toward the hole. It ran
straight Into the cup for an eagle 3 and
the huge throng shouted applause for
the sensational shot. Turnesa dropped
wearily to the ground and did not even
see Jolly miss his 25-foot putt for the
half.
Dark Hone of U. S. Group.
In crashing through to his dramatic
victory. Turnesa today defeated the
first winner of this event seven years
ago. Yesterday he eliminated Charles
Whitcombe, who won last year. Joe
kept the colors of the United States
flying to the last and came through to
win first money after his more favored
comrades had been eliminated.
He was the dark horse of the Ameri
can group and three times had to work
overtime to win. He w’as tied for 32d
in the qualifytng rounds to determine
the 32 players to enter match play and
had to play an extra nine holes to gain
admittance to the main show Ernest
Whitcombe carried him to the 19th
hole in the first round. Today he was
tried and not found wanting in 37 hard
fought holes.
Only Ed Dudley of the visiting Ameri
can contingent was here today to en
courage the finalist from the United
States through his exhausting battle.
Spectators said the other Americans
had gone to London to caddy for Walter
Hagen and the Prince of Wales.
Makes Speech at Clubhouse.
Joe topped off the day with a modest,
courtly speech on the clubhouse veran
da. where he received the handsome
silver cup. emblematic of his victory.
He expressed his thanks for the kind
reception given him on his first season
on British courses and his satisfaction
at winning over such a brilliant field.
Jolly paid tribute to the prowess of
his conqueror and said it was no dis
credit to lose to a man who wins at the
37th by "holing his drive.”
