1924 SUB BECOMES FAMOUS £j Hess, Ohio State, Makes Quick Climb to Grid Fame. A mere football substitute in 1924, generally picked as all-American guard for 1925. That is the story of the football career of Ed Hess, Ohio State University athlete. The really big grid game of the year for Ohio State is Illinois. It is always the climax to a good or bad season. It was the Illini game of 1924 that opened the road to fame for Hess. Up until that game Hess had been just a substitute forward. An injury to Doc Dreyer gave him the big chance. His work featured that contest. So remarkable a game did he play that Coach Dr. John Wilce informed him at its finish that he had the position of guard cinched for 1925. It is said to be the first time Coach Wilce ever did such a thing. In the 1925 pre-season dope, however, few of the football experts gave Hess even a tumble in considering State’s prospects. The 1924 game with Illinois gave Hess his big chance, but it was really the 1925 clash with Columbia made him. ■ Eastern experts were of the opin ion that Columbia had one of the strongest teams in that section. At least a dozen of the most prominent eastern football critics saw the game. As in the Illinois game, Hess was the outstanding star of the Columbia contest. He tore through the Columbia big line at will and so broke up the back field combination of that eleven that State scored a decisive victory. Throughout the 1925 season the West saw plenty of what Hess could ,do and came to view him as easily the best guard in the Big Ten. However, it was the Columbia game that made him a national figure. From a lowly substitute to allAmerican guard in one short year reads like a page from fiction. It is probably just that to Ed Hess.

STAR LIGHT HEAVIES STEER CLEAR OF CHUCK Delaney, Stribling and Slattery Avoid Bouts With Wiggins Since He Outpointed Tiger Flowers.

When Chuck Wiggins, Indianapolis light heavyweight, mixed in a sensational scrap with Tiger Flowers at East Chicago some time ago, he |;issed . himself out of some big matches and big money. Chuck gained a shade verdict over Flowers and the wires carried the information all over the land. Flowers Is rated a tough, hardy battler, and managers of prominent light heavyweight title aspirants immediately made notations in their “logs” to keep their hopefuls clear of Wiggins. Slattery’s Boss Refuses Promoter John McGarvey of Pittsburgh thought a Jimmy SlatteryChuck Wiggins bout would be a good card. He wired Sam Marcus, Chuck’s manager, and terms were accepted. But Paul Carr, Slattery’s manager, notified McGarvey he didn’t want the match. Promoter Edwards of New Orleans made two efforts to get Young Stribling in the ring with the Hoosler, but each time Manager “Pa" Stribling kept his Georgia “gem” and meal ticket safely out of Wiggins’ reach. "Pa” was willing for his boy to box others of less skill, but he positively refused a Wiggins bout.

Tommy Milligan

mHIS Is Tommy Milligan, welterweight champion of England, who hopes to be the next world crown-wearer of that sector. He hopes to box Mickey Walker for the title In January. Milligan, who is now in this country, is highly touted by European critics.

Promoter Morrissey of Grand Rapids sent a representative east to talk with Manager Carr of Slattery and Manager Pete Reilly of Jack Delaney, who recently fought Paul Berlenbach. One of the two eastern prominents was wanted for a bout with Wiggins in Grand Rapids New Year’s day. Safety First Managers Offers were turned down and the managers of Slattery and Delaney were not backward about explaining. They called attention to the WigginsFlowers match and said Wiggins was too good to gamble against. In other words the eastern managers play the safety first game with their fighters and wait for "big shots” in New York. General opinion over the country seems to be that there are but a few light heavies capable of beating the Hoosier at the 175-pound mark and with the exception of Harry Greb the few leaders don’t care to tackle him. Chuck has a big bout in view for New Year’s, but owing to the fact good light heavies' refuse to meet him, he’ll probably be seen in action against a heavyweight.

Referee Kearns had four men out of the game on personals before the rough and tumble battle was over. Miller and Hogan of lowa, and Nipper and Keach of Butler left the scrap upon request.

Famous Feats ——By Art Carlson ———— IN FINAL MINUTE EHERE have been numerous thrill* In football. Every season produces plenty of them. A sensa tional run, pass, recovery of i fumble or a blocked kick—eacu brings the spectators to their feet at every oecaison. i Perhaps though no one play ever carried more thrills than -lid that scintillating dash of little Dick Marshall s in the PennMichigan game back in 1913. Almost up until the final whistle Mid igen had held the lead that day. At the end of the first half Michigan had garnered 21 points to 7 for the Quakers. The game, obviously, looked safe for the Yost brigade. But Michigan was battling a fighting Red and Blue aggregation. And the 14 point handicap meant but little to the Penn forces Gradually they overhauh-i the Ann Arbor advantage until, with but a minute left to play. Michigan waa stag gering along on a 31-20 lead. The ball was in Michigan territory. A long punt would push the leather deep into Perm’s side of the field and time would be up ere the Quakers could score again. That was Michigan’s size-up of toe situation at any rate. So Michigan kicked. But the Maize and Blue hadn't reckoned with Dick Mar shall, Penn’s safety. The ball sailed straight to Marshall, who tucked it under his arm and set out for the Michigan goal, 55 yards in the distance. Down the field he galloped, brushing past one tackier after another finally romping over the line for the tally that won the game. 27-21. Another kickoff and the tilt was over. Thus Penn had not only erased (he great Michigan advantage but had whipped a team that looked to have the game safely stowed in the old bag. And it whs little Dick Marshall's sterling broken field run in those last sixty aeconda that accomplished the trick.
