QUMYJJJW
Varsity Group of 28 Weak
in Center of Line—Has
Frail Backfield.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.
NEW YORK, October 20.—If you
are a Yale grad or number
yourself among the thousands
of foot ball lovers to whom
the grand tradition of the game means
a great deal, read what follows—and
weep.
Speaking in terms of foot ball, Yale
Is not Yale any more. Physically the
athletic plant and equipment at New
Haven pictures the ultimate which
the generosity of loving donors can
attain. No institution in the world
begins to compare with Yale In point
of all the indoor and outdoor facilities
tor indulgence in competitve games.
There is no need to pause to esti
mate the sum of money involved in
the physical advantages which the
ancient university has placed at the
dispoeal of its undergraduates. Those
mammoth Gothic walls of various ath
letic buildings, the inclosed arenas de
voted to various sports, the expansive
playing areas, proclaim them wives in
terms of millions, or at least hundreds
and hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Only 28 in Varsity Squad.
YET it is entirely likely that an
alumnus—his memories keenly
alive to a glorious athletic past
in which perchance he participated—
would feel no exhilaration if he stood
on the side line at Yale's practice field
today and watched the team of his J
alma mater preparing for Brown to
morrow and for powerful opponents ι
lying beyond. Quite the contrary.
Following "Ducky" Pond. Earl Neale j
and other assistants as they worked
with a varsity squad of a size which a
minor college coach would deem inade
quate, he would have to leave the field
and contact with the material gran
deur of his university, would have to
contemplate the multiform activities
of its scholastic life before he would :
be able to say "this indeed is Yale."
In all her history, even in times 1
* hen foot bal] has rested static in 1
the doldrums of inefficiency—some
thing which occurs in cycles at all
colleges—Yale's gridiron affairs have
never seen the low estate which marks
them today.
At this writing, the Blue squad, or a
squad—interchangeable terms at Yale,
meaning the varsity regulars and sub
stitutes—consist of 28 players. In
juries are in some part responsible for
this condition, but in larger measure
it is due to the fact that foot ball
players of ability are few at Yale.
Weak in Center of Line.
THERE is not a single center on
this squ-ad. They are trying to |
malce over Grossoup, a guard, I
Into a pivot man. Of the guards.
Webb Davis, one of the two regulars,
weighs 165 pounds. Opponents do not
bother much about him. They simply
push him out of the way. Crampton,
the other guard, is a good man, 190
pounds. But that is all there is.
Just now they are trying to make 1
Watson, a 170-pound back, into a
guard and also Herold, 170 pounds, a
sub end. In the backfield there is not
a man who can back up the line.
Schultz, a senior, who never played j
varsity ball until this year, has been j
trying to do the job, but he simply j
cannot do it because of lack of weight.
He weighs 153 pounds.
So Kim Whitehead, a running back
who should be saved for ball carrying.
Is being used as backer-up—because
he weighs 180 pounds. No other
reason.
Frosh Are Not Strong.
ON THE present freshman eleven,
not a lineman is in prospect.
The first year team, in fact, of
fers few if any prospects of whatever
aort in the way of material. A line
on the team may be gathered from
the fact that Exeter beat the Eli Cubs,
16-0, and that Harvard's first-year
outfit held Exeter to a 0-0 tie.
It is a forlorn impression you get
at Yale. The team is being well
coached: everything possible is being
made of the material. The trouble is
the right sort of material is not at
New Haven. Why? Scholastic rigidity
they say. Foot ball players who have
passed extttnce exams—16 points are
required—are refused, it is said, be
cause their marks in passing have not
been sufficiently high.
It is β. sad, sad story and who ran
nay what the end will be? House
foot ball, perhaps?

JACKSON FAVORED
10 OUTBOX FALCO
Coast Lightweight Champ
Rated Better Than Ross,
World Title Holder.
BY JOHN J. ROMANO.
NEW YORK, October 20.—Young
Peter Jackson makes the long
trek from the Pacific Coast to
show his wares in Madison
Square Garden against Tony Falco
November 2.
Jackson is the lightweight cham
pion of the Pacific Coast, without any
question of doubt. The dusky war
rior not only flays boys of his own
weight, but steps out of his class and
acts with the same finesse and deft
ness.
His knockouts of Ceferino Garcia,
the hard-hitting Filipino, who was
being groomed for a crack at the wel
terweight crown, leads many experts
to believe Jackson would have little
trouble disposing of Champion Barney
Ross.
This opinion also is based on the
showing Bobby Pacho made against
Ross earlier In the year. Jackson
stopped Pacho In 10 rounds.
Ross Colorful Handler.
WIRT ROSS, manager of Jack
son, is one of the most colorful
handlers In the game. A big.
bluff fellow, with a penchant for loud
clothes and large diamonds, he re
minds you of the old-time gamblers.
And Mr. Ross, or Big Shot, as he is
known on the Coast, will take a flyer
on his fighter.
Ross had some sort of official con
nection with the Panama government
some years ago. He promoted fights
on and off in his spare time. Just
before returning to the States he
chanced upon a dusky little chap
with fair ability as a fighter.
Wirt promptly dubbed the dusky
one a San Bias Indian, straightened
out his krinkly hair and sent him
into the ring as Santiago Zorilla.
Jackson is a better fighter by the
proverbial mile.
Falco Tough Customer.
JACKSON is meeting a tough cus
tomer in Falco. Ross had no
choice in picking this opponent,
because, as Jimmy Johnston said, "if
Jatkson is as good as he is rated,
he must fight the tough ones in order
to get anywhere with his claim for a
fight with Barney Ross."
Falco will outweigh Jackson sev
eral pounds. Despite this handicap
the colored warrior should not have
much trouble beating the Philadel
phia Italian.

TECH BEGINS ROW
ON EASTERN STAR
Says Cattell, Big Factor in
Tie Game, Is Too Old
for School Play.
BY E. A. FILLER, Jr.
THE Eastern-Tech public high
title series loot ball game last
Tuesday In which Eastern sur
prised by fighting Tech to a
0-0 tie may be thrown out, it was
learned today, as a result of the
participation of William Cattell, little
Filipino back, in the Eastern line-up.
Cattell, one of the stars of the
game, has been barred from the East
ern team until it has been proved
whether or not he is 21.
According to a letter sent Eastern
authorities by Tech officials, the rec
ords at Tech, where Cattell formerly
was a student, showed he was born
April 30, 1913, which would make
him 21 years old. The rulee of high
school competition prohibit the use
of a player who has reached the
age of 21.
Charles Hart, Eastern High princi
pal, said today that Cattell was listed
at that school as having beeft born
April 30, 1914. which would make him
only 20. Hart said he had asked Cat
tell to explain the discrepancy and
the latter said that he was born April
30. 1914.
However, until the player can con
vince Eastern authorities that he's
really not yet 21 he will not be played,
Hart said. Cattell was born In Ma
nila, which might make prompt check
ing of records somewhat difficult.
Protest lip to Tech.
MEANWHILE, Hart said, if Tech
wants to protest the game, it
would bs up to that school. He
explained that had Eastern any inti
mation at the time that Cattell was
21. it would not have used him. He
said the boy is a good player, but that
other players just as capable were
kept on the Eastern bench.
Principal Frank Daniel could not
1 be reached today to ascertain whether
' Tech would make a formal protest.
! but such a protest laid before the
board of principals would occasion no
1 surprise.
Some years ago. it was recalled. «
title was decided as the result of the
use by Tech of an ineligible player in
the basket bell series. Everett John- j
son of the Tech quint played in a j
game Friday and did not become in- ι
eligible scholastically until the fol
lowing Monday. The game was
thrown out and it cost Tech the title '
Eastern and Central were declared 1
joint champions by the board of prin- j
cipals. /
Western Hard Pressed.
WA DDITIONAL evidence that the
J\ current public high foot ball
scrap is going to prove a battle
royal all the way was provided yester
day when Rooeevelt. for years the
doormat of the public high whirl,
arose in its wrath and all but over
came Western. The Georgetowners
finally prevailed, 13-β.
Alter Western had gained a 13
point lead in the first three quarters
Roosevelt dramatically came to life
in the last quarter to score one touch
down and come within a whisker of
getting another.
An 80-yard run by Phil Maloney.
Western's quarterback, in the third
quarter brought one of his team's ί
touchdowns and was the oustanding ;
thrill of the game. The other Red
touchdown was counted by Bill Sum
merbeil. who ripped through to cul
minate a 45-yard march in the first
period.
Near the end of the third quarter
the Ruf Riders, with Freddy Hill
showing the way, drove all the way
to the 2-yard line before Western
held for downs. But the Riders were
not to be denied and again struck
out for the Westefn goal, finally scor
ing as Spiro Kolius. big end, grabbed
a 20-yard pass from Johnny Saur
and fell another yard across the goal
line.

extraordinary and his punting was al
to be desired.

a masterpiece. The ball was so wel

diagnosing plays were a credit not only
to the players but Jim Pixlee, Len
Walsh, Roland Logan and Bill Myers,
the coaches who put in many a hard
lick and solid thought preparing for a
battle that ended a four-year reign of
Tulsa over the Buff and Blue.
"We wanted to win that game." said
Capt. ΕΊ Clark today, "more than any
I've ever played in."
But maybe Clark wasn't as hopped
up over the victory as Ed Watts, big
tackle. Watte had a double incentive
to win. Recently his dad sent him 25
bucks ·ο buy an overcoat. Today his
bankroll was triple that. Some guy
with "50 berries to risk thought Tulsa
a 2-to-l chance for victory, and it
made Ed mad.

IN NEW YORK BOW
Davis, Conqueror of Stars,
Faces Scarpati in Small
"Neighborhood" Club.
BY JOHN J. ROMANO.
NEW YORK, October 20.—Jackie
Davis makes his local debut in
a six-round fight against Ton;
Scarpati at the Ridgewood
Grove Club this evening. This is quite
a come-down for a fighter who has
five fights against Champion Barney
Roes In his record and victories over
Sammy Mandell, Cocoa Kid, Young
Geno and others to his credit.
Jackie's last fight was a whirlwind
allair against Tommy Romano, act
of Barney Ross' sparring partners foi
the two McLarnin matches. In which
he cam» from behind In the closing
rounds and scored a knockdown in the
final heat.
The Ridgewood Grove is a small
club, known for staging neighborhood
quarrels, with a steady attendance oi
dyed-in-the-wool fight fans. It has
been called the "Incubator of great
fighters." The boys who got their
start at that club and made good have
been promoted to star attractions in
Madison Square Garden. That is why
Davis willingly agreed to start there in
a six-rounder.
Scarpati is not a set-up for the best
welterweight In the world. Hs la a
rugged, willing fighter, who keeps s
man busy all the time he is facing
him. He is the type who plugs away
at the smaller clubs.
If Davis beats Scarpati. and he fig
ures to do that by a convincing
margin, it will mean a chance at the
St. Nicholas Palace, which is but a
short step from Madison Square Oar
den. After that Jackie hopes to get
in line for a crack at the junior
welterweight title now held by Barney
Ross.

begins. He is understood to have
wired a friend from Mississippi that
he will be in town in time for the
match, which will start about 1 o'clock.
