The
Sportlight
Caliber of Foes Hits
At Vols' High Rating
By GRANTLAND RICE,
Special Correspondent of The Star.
NEW YORK, Nov. 22 (N.A.N.A.).
—These official rankings of teams
around the country have become
quite irksome to a large number of
football followers packed in between
two of our best-known oceans.
Many of them have become just a
trifle on the violent side in their
vocal and letter-writing uprisings.
“How can any one put Tennessee
over Iowa?” one sideliner writes,
“when Iowa has had to play Indiana.
Michigan. Wisconsin. Purdue, J4otre
Dame, Minnesota and Northwestern
on successive Saturdays — against
such teams, for breathers, as Sew
anee, Chattanooga, Mercer and the
Citadel? Tennessee has beaten Ala
bama, L. S. U. and Vanderbilt—all
badly beaten most of the fall. Iowa
has beaten Indiana, Wisconsin. Pur
due, Notre Dame and Minnesota. I
am not trying to discredit a fine
Tennessee squad. I am asking you
who has done the better job so far—
and you can include Ohio State in
this list.—or Notre Dame—or Cor
nell—for top ranking.”
Iowa Rates High Spot
On Hard Schedule
This is not a complex question in
any way. While I still think Ten
nessee has one of the best squads in
many years, on the basis of a sea
son's performance to date, I think
the five ranking teams should be
Cornell, Iowa. Ohio State, Notre
Dame and Texas A. and M., in any
order you care to place them.
From this group. Iowa has played
the hardest schedule and has beater
a greater number of stronger teams,
where Nile Kinnick has given one
of the finest exhibitions of many
years—60 minutes each through six
major games. And Texas A. and M.
is alongside Iowa.
I would say that Iowa has done the
best job so far. Iowa has played
the harder schedule with only one
defeat.
Notre Dame has had no push
overs around, but. after all. Army
and Navy haven't been so steaming
hot this fall—and neither has Car
negie Tech.
Texas A. and M. belongs high in
this type of ranking—with nine con
secutive victories through a schedule
that included Santa Clara, Villa
nova, Baylor. Arkansas and South
ern Methodist.
Texas Ags Look Even
Against Any Team
Texas A. and M. is an even chance
against any team you can pick
across the map. So are Ohio State,
Southern California. Cornell, Notre
Dame, Tennessee, Tulane and Iowa.
You can add Missouri and Okla
homa to this group.
Any form of ranking that doesn’t
include the type of schedule each
team must face means nothing at
all. The batterings teams take week
after week, the shift in emotional
and mental attitudes, all belong on
the schedule side. It's the number
of games that key one up—the ten
sion games—that counts.
The big thrust of the season still
belongs to Cornell. Ohio State beat
Missouri, 19 to 0. Missouri crushed
Nebraska and beat Oklahoma in the
Big Six scramble.
Ohio State, in addition to Mis
souri, beat Northwestern, Minnesota,
Indiana and Illinois. Here is a tre
mendous squad of speed and power
with a fast, 205-pound backfield.
But it was Cornell, top of the Ivy
League, that beat Ohio State, now
top of the Big Ten, that, in turn,
beat Missouri, now top of the Big
Civ
Cornell Team Twins in
Biggest Job of Year
You can figure from this about
where it leaves Cornell. A number
of ardent Midwesterners have tried
to tell me that the Cornell-Ohio
State game was a fluke. I don’t be
lieve Coach Francis Schmidt or his
team will agree to that.
Cornell invaded Buckeye soil. It
was not at top form physically, with
Scholl, a 159-pound substitute, in
the backfield. Cornell spotted Ohio
State 14 points in 20 minutes—at
least 18 pounds in weight—and then
came along to outscore one of the
best teams in football today.
If that is a fluke, then the Yan
• kees won the American League pen
nant and the World Series on a
series of flukes—and Joe Louis is a
fluke winner.
Cornell turned in the big job of
the year that afternoon in Colum
bus, when it took the play away
from a great team that almost bat
tered Cornell defenders into the
dirt for 20 minutes.
Crippled Midshipmen
Rate Tigers' Line
As Big Barrier
By the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS. Nov. 22.—Facing
the problem of getting by a giant
Princeton line with a crippled squad,
Coach Swede Larson of Navy indi
cated today he will use a plentiful
assortment of passes against the
Tigers in their game Saturday at
Princeton.
Princeton with Dave Allerdice,
Bob Peters and Bob Jackson to call
on, figures to have a wide range over
the Tars on the offense, but Larson
is conceding nothing to the foe and
plans to fight fire with fire. Pat
Gray and Emmett Wood are back
with the squad after being out with
injuries, but only Gray will see ac
tion this week.
Larson’s plans call for a running
attack built around Sammy Boothe
and a passing game with Tommy
Blount chucking the ball.

Lincoln Park Team
Held Below Form
In Early Defeat
Washington-Lee Seeks
Tenth Straight Win
Facing G. W. High
By BURTON HAWKINS.
Eastern and Western, recognized
over a span of nearly half a century
as formidable foes who folded In
the stretch, reach the peak of their
long rivalry tomorrow morning at
Central Stadium in a clash for a
public high school football cham
pionship which each has owned only
once.
Not since 1905, when Tom Kirby
and Bobby Fielding sparked West
ern to the title, have the Red Raid
ers won a title outright, although
twice they have tied for the crown in
that period. Eastern’s 1937 team
captured the first championship the
Lincoln Parkers had been able to
collect since 1897.
Champions of their respective
divisions and participants in a game
earlier this season in which fistic ac
tivity flared, the clubs will be bat
tling to succeed Central on the lofty
perch and some 8,000 fans are ex
pected to view the engagement.
Eastern Is Confident.
Despite an earlier 13-0 loss to
Western, Eastern is confident of
spilling the high-scoring Red Raid
ers, whose only defeat this season
was administered by undefeated and
untied Washington-Lee High, 7-6.
Western has averegade 16 points a
game in seven tilts.
Eastern's confidence lareelv is at
tributed to its first showing against
Western. On that occasion the Lin
coln Parkers produced what Coach
Mike Kelley branded “our worst
game in a month.”
“I think we can beat Western.”
says Kelley, "because our line is
heavier and stronger than the Cen
tral line it was running through last
week. We're a better team than
we've shown and I think the boys
are keyed to win this one.”
Western, though, will reign an
8-5 favorite on the strength of its
previous triumph and the fact it has
been held to less than two touch
downs only once this year.
W.-L. Seeks 10th Victory.
Washington-Lee. with a platinum
plated claim to ratings as this sec
tor s outstanding scholastic team,
will seek its 10th consecutive vic
tory in meeting George Washington
High when that intense rivalry is
continued tomorrow morning at the
G. W. Stadium at Alexandria.
Conquerors of both Eastern and
Western, as well as such other highly
: regarded teams as Central, St.
John’s and Gonzaga, the Little
Generals have been installed pro
hibitive favorites to cap their most
successful season with a triumph.
Coach Johnny Baker piloted Wash
ington-Lee to an undefeated season
in 1937, but the record was marred
by four ties.
Central was to leave today for a
tiff with Woodrow Wilson High at
Portsmouth, Va.. while Georgetown
Prep, twice tied, but undefeated,
will invade New Rochelle, N. Y„ for
a game with Iona Prep, coached by
Tommy Whelan, former Catholic
University grid great. Gonzaga in
vades Petersburg, Va., for a feud
with Petersburg High.
Both the Eastern-Western and
j Washington-Lee High-G. W. High
games will start at 10 a.m.

Warrenton Defeats Aces
WARRENTON, Va., Nov. 22.—
Warrenton’s town football team de
I feated the Maryland Aces of Takoma
| Park, 6 to 0, before a sizable crowd.
By PAUL J. MILLER.
Israel A. Horowitz, now a chess
I editor, is planning his winter's
| itinerary and will stop over in Wash
ington if any local club elects to
entertain the master for a simul
| taneous exhibition and subsequent
analytical lecture.
In the past Horowitz has displayed
his abilities before groups at the
Capital City Chess Club and the
Jewish Community Center. The 32
year-old expert learned his chess at
the age of 7. followed the pastime at
primary, high school and New York
University.
In 1927 and 1928 he captained the
New York University intercollegiate
championship team in the Eastern
League. In 1931, 1935 and 1937 he
represented America on the team
sent to the International Chess Fed
eration Congresses; his defeat of
Przepiorka, in 1931, gave the United
States the winning point over Po
land for the famed Hamilton
Russell Gold Trophy.
At Philadelphia, in 1936, Horowitz
annexed the title of the American
Chess Federation and the following
year tied with Isaac Kashdan for
the coveted title.
Tall, dark-haired, a striking figure
of muscular and mental co-ordina
tion as he leans thoughtfully over
the chessboard, pipe in hand as he
prepares to make a move, Horowitz
is every inch a master.

A. J. Jackson—Your query as to official
chess rules answers itself. The official
Laws of Chess are not available in any
encyclopedia, year book or chess book.
No. the "authorized” Laws of Chess come
from the British Chess Federation, which
translated them from the original French
approved by the International Chess Fed
eration. in July. 1929. at the 6th General
Assembly of the Federation Internationale
des Echecs at Venice. Current books
usually have the old 1890 chess rules. To
day organized chess in America indorses
only the above-described Laws of Chess.
Any member of the United States Chess
Federation the honor society of Chi Eta
Sigma. Intercollegiate Chess Association,
or American Academy of Chess possesses
the genuine "official” 1929 Laws of Chess.

Medico Okays Football for His Son
Dr. Roth of Stanford Declares'Athletic Heart' Doesn't Exist
By the Associated Press.
PALO ALTO, Nov. 2$.—After
12 years of diagnosing and treat
ing Stanford’s football injuries,
Dr. E. F. “Fritz” Roth answers
the question “Shall I let my son
' play football?” with:
"Why, sure! He is playing foot
ball.”
Dr. Roth’s son, “Fritz, jr„”
'plays tackle for the Palo Alto
High School team.
“Football is safe,” said the
medico who has been the Stan
ford team physician since 1927.
“I would a lot rather have my son
scrimmaging in his spare time
after school than running around
on the highways in some kid’s
rattletrap. Besides, he comes
home tired at night and goes to
bed.”
Dr. Roth gives his side of the
oft-asked question in this month’s
I
issue of the Stanford Illustrated
Review, alumni magazine.
The Palo Alto physician, who
calls his work at Stanford a
hobby, contends “there is no such
thing as an ‘athletic heart.’ While
a man plays xfootball his heart
does become enlarged — walls
thicken with muscle and the organ
pumps more blood. But the heart
reverts to normal without injury
when football days are over.”
As a rule, Stanford football
players are healthier than the
average student, the doctor con
tends.
Looking back over the years to
1915, the year he was graduated
from Stanford, Roth says he can
remember no football injury here
that left a permanent effect.
Good coaching can help reduce
the injury list, and a coach who
teaches his men the correct way
to tackle and take hard bumps
will have the minimum of in
juries, says Roth.

Rough Riders Close
Most Successful
Year With Win
Kolker Plunges for All
Points as Wilson Is
Conquered, 19 to 0
Roosevelt High School closed its
most successful football season yes
terday with a 19-to-0 triumph over
Woodrow Wilson at Roosevelt Sta
dium. The victory marked the sec
ond interhigh win this year for the
Rough Riders and the third since
1929. Two have been against Wil
son and the other against Anacostia.
which came two weeks ago.
Yesterday Bernie Kolker. 195
pound back, made all the touch
downs on short plunges. On the
last score Les Wicklein converted
with a rush through center.
The triumph was sweet, particu
larly to Coach Artie Boyd, who pre
dicted a few weeks ago when his
team had not scored a point, much
less a victory, in five games, that
the Riders would win two games
before the season was over. Few
heeded the forecast, but since then
Anacostia and Wilson have bowed
to Roosevelt and Gonzaga barely
eked out a 6-to-0 win over it.
Yesterday the Riders clicked per
fectly, making touchdown drives of
from 30 to 65 yards. Billy Hall.
Irwin Brier and Kolker packed the
ball for lengthy gains, and when
a few yards were needed for a tally
Kolker plunged for them. Although
lighter and less experienced than
their opponents, the Wilson boys
never stopped trying, and with "a
break or two they might have scored
at least once.

W. and M. Eleven, Seen as Poor
Ttoiler, Now Is in Running
For State Championship
By the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va„ Nov. 22.—Win
or lose against undefeated Rich
mond tomorrow, William and Mary's
Indians will go down in the books
as the most surprising Southern
Conference football club of the
season.
Coach Carl Voyles, who left Duke’s
Rose Bowl team to take over the
William and Mary coaching reins,
found among his candidates only
four men who had played varsity
football. It was the least promising
squad Williamsburgers could recall
in some 20 years.
Two victories were set up as the
maximum goal in pre-season prac
tice by Voyles, who said not to look
this year but to come back around
1941, when he hoped to have a
team which could hold its own
with natural rivals.
What happened is history. W. and
M.’s Braves won five games, lost
two—to Navy and Virginia—and
tied Virginia Tech. They rolled up
151 points to 95 for the opposition,
scoring in each of their eight con
tests.
Jones Lost to Richmond.
Last year William and Mary
failed to win a major State or con
ference tilt, but by ending Rich
mond’s winning streak in the
Thanksgiving Day clash they will
have a chance at the State title
and a final ranking high in the
conference first division.
Richmond’s stock took a down
ward plunge with the loss of Ar
thur Jones, sparkling triple-threat
back, forcing Coach Glenn Thistle
thwaite to shuffle his backfleld and
revamp his attack plans on the
eve of the contest. Jones was hurt
in Saturday’s Hampden - Sydney
game.
Meanwhile rain and snow handi
capped V. M. I. and Virginia Tech
squads as they attempted a final
polishing for the military classic
at Roanoke tomorrow. The Keydets
were driven from Alumni Field by
a white blanket and worked in the

Golf Amateurs Told
By U. 5. G. A. They
Must Watch Step
Warned to Be Careful
Regarding Status of
Tourneys They Enter
The United States Gold Associa
tion is getting concerned about its
amateur golfers. Not in the usual
way of cracking down on the “bor
derline boys,” who masquerade as
amateurs and are in reality semi
pros, but in a paternalistic way. The
fatherly U. S. G. A. warns amateurs
who play in privately promoted
tourneys run for profit to stay away
from such affairs, “or seriously im
pair their amateur status.”
“Amateur golfers who are inter
ested in retaining amateur status are
advised not to enter tournaments
conducted by strangers about whom
they know nothing, and not to en
ter tournaments in which prizes of
unusual value are offered,” says an
announcement today by the national
golf body.
"Occasionally tournaments are
advertised throughout the United
States which are sponsored by peo
ple who are not affiliated with any
recognized golf association and who
conduct them solely for their own
profit.
“Tournaments of this kind can be
recognized by their elaborate adver
tising matter and by the value of
the prizes which are offered. Usually
they are of such nature that the
entrants—whether prize winners or
not—seriously impair their amateur
standing.
“It is recommended that amateur
golfers participate only in tourna
ments which they know about.”
This is a new tack for the U. S.
G. A., and a proper one. It refers,
specifically, we understand, to a
big tournament held in the East
last summer, and to a growing ten
dency to promote private tourna
ments for private profit. Several
years ago the U. S. G. A. refused
permission for sponsors of one of the
big Western tourneys to present the
winner with an expensive motor car.
The U. S. G. A. firmly believes in
j comparatively inexpensive prizes.
But the amateur golfers around
Washington need have no fear of
repercussions in this territory from
j the latest U. S. G. A. ban. No such
i private tournaments are held around
S Washington, and no elaborately ex
! pensive prizes have been offered in
I a golf tournament in this neigh
! borhood.
