Surprise and indignation were expressed in Cornell athletic circles at pub
lished reports from Columbus, O., that Capt. Eddie Kaw, Cornell's brilliant
leader and halfback had participated in a charity benefit game there between
teams of Western and Eastern stars, says an Ithaca dispatch to the New York
World. Kaw was described as having played a "wonderful game."
As a matter of fact Kaw was in New York while the game was in progress
and he never had any intention of going to Columbus. After the Thanksgiving
day victory over Penn, which closed his college football career, Eddie went to
New York and spent Friday and Saturday with his parents, arriving in Ithaca
on Sunday morning.
: The whole story was a fake. Kaw is busy with his books. He probably
will make his final appearance in athletics at Cornell on next spring's baseball
team. The photograph shows Kaw shaking hands with Pos Miller, captain of the
Penn team.

New Kentucky Thrill.
"Kaintuckyites" had a new
thrill recently when the Bme
Grass Country club at Cave City
was formally opened by a group
of Chicago golfers. On the open
ing day the visitors paired up
for foursomes and each one of
the quartet carried a gallery
which furnished amusement to
the players. Settlers from a
50-mile radius came to see the
new-fangled game, having load
ed their families in buggies,
buckboards and wagons to get
there. A young army of moun
taineers were lined up at the
first tee to have their first try
at caddy ing.

BLAME TONSILS FOR FIZZLE
Failure of Catcher Gharrity to Play
His Usual Good Game Caused
Senators' Poor Showing.
One of the chief reasons for the
failure of the Washington team to
make a better showing in the Ameri
can league last season was the failure
of Catcher Eddie Gharrity to play his
usual brilliant game. An attack of
neuritis in the .-ight shoulder caused
Gharrity to suffer with a lame arm all
summer, which naturally affected his
play in other departments aside from
mere throwing. Recently" he under
went an operation for his tonsils
which the doctors claim will eliminate
the neuritis and restore the arm to
old-time form.

Phelon Starts Something.'
W. A. Phelon, the Cincinnati

way put baseball magnates

ers, "ineligible" or "voluntarily"
retired" .who had long ago quit
the game, were in some in-'

never would return to baseball.

Mr. Phelon he would revise the
Cincinnati list. The first name

EASTERN CONFERENCE
USELESS, SAYS ROPER
Princeton Coach Sees No Need
for Football Guild.
Game Is Cleaner and More Popular
Than Ever and No Danger of
Abuse Which Years Ago Caused
Scandals and lll-Feeling.
An eastern football conference, sim
ilar to that In existence in the West,
would be useless, in view of the high
caliber of the gridiron sport in this
section of the country, according to an
Interview with William H. Roper, coach
if the undefeated Princeton eleven,
&
IIIDIIIIID1IIIIDI1I1ID111111
Coach Bill Roper.
Roper expressed himself In this man
ner when asked for his opinion of the
non-collegiate movement to organize
such a conference, in which eight of
the leading universities and colleges of
the East would be members.
"Today the game is cleaner and more
popular than it ever was," said Mr.
Roper, "and there Is no danger of the
abuses which years ago caused scan
dals and engendered bad feelings
among the large universities. There
is absolutely no professionalism, and
there is a widespread trustworthiness
on athletic questions.
"The one thing that shows the popu
larity of college athletics among out
siders is the unparalleled demand for
tickets for all the big games this year.
Yale, IIarvard,: Princeton and Pennsyl
vania have all had record crowds, and
this public interest is due to the fact
that people know collegiate football is
on the level.
"We do not need any constitutional
amendments to the code of sportsman
ship." MAKING SPARES IN BOWLING
Straight Strikes Are Better, but AN
most an Impossible Task for
Average Bowier.
"Spare bowling is what counts," Is
an aphorism of the alleys.
Straight strikes are better than
straight spares, but It is next to Im
possible to make all strikes in suc
cession while the science of bowling
will permit a man to make every
frame a spare or strike.
There are certain balls that are
called strike balls, which if bowled
properly, will result the greatest
number of times in strikes, and there
in a bowler's skill is shown.
But; the fortunes of the game turn
a- great many strikes into the worst
of "splits" and a great many split
balls into fluke strikes.
The element of chance is not near
ly so great in spare bowling, for the
majority of spares have to be made
in certain ways.
FOOTBALL RECEIPTS ARE BIG
Estimated Vale Will Have Something
Like $500,000 Big Bowl Was
Jammed for Army Game.
Yale football receipts for the 1922
season probably will be between $400,
000 and $r00,000 It is estimated. The
bowl was filled twice with 77,000 for
the Army and Harvard games and
Iowa drew f5,000. The other games
or. the schedule drew between 10,000
and 2.VXX).

Football Coaches.
There is a wizardry about
successful football coaches. The
great players are not necessarily
the great coaches. The man who
can tear a line to pieces i3 not
necessarily the owner of mental
equipment to make him the mas
ter of football strategy. ' The
football coach must be a great
teacher, a great initiator, a mas
ter of discipline, and one who
wins reverence from his men.
After that, it is all easy enough.
I Elect Carney Captain.
Arthur Carney, midshipman of An
Dcpoiis, was elected captain of the
Navy football team for 1923, winning
out over a favorite by one vote. Car
ney hails from the Bronx, having
graduated from Morris high school.
Since attending Annapolis he ha
proved himself a sturdy, consistent
player.
PRAISE OFTEN PROVES FATAL
Too Much Publicity Blamed for De
feat of Cornhuskers at Hands
of Syracuse Team.
Too much publicity Is often fatal to
a team as well as an Individual. Many
a high-priced ball player has been
hampered by publicity. It seems the
germ is just as fatal on the gridiron.
A few weeks prior to the meeting
between Nebraska and Syracuse,
Steve O'Neill, a western coach, said.
Nebraska could beat Princeton on.
Thursday, Yale on Friday and Har
vard on Saturday.
Overnight the Nebraska team be
came known as a superteant. Then
came the game with Syracuse, in
which Nebraska was beaten. It was
quite a jolt for a team that had been;
so much advertised.
Coach Dawson, the Md Princeton:
star, was in no way to blame for the
publicity idea. He ridiculed the super
team stuff.
