Bpr-lACIC and forth the pendu■D I lum swing’s. It is strange, J* 1 ' 1 indeed, however, that the B&tlonal League favors a return K the use of resin on the ball by Hitchers. It is not so much the Idea that the use of resin to obtain a firm grip is so harmful, >ut that the path to trickery is >pened. The fans wanted more hitting ind the powers of baseball saw to t that their wishes were fulfilled. Then it developed that there was oo much slugging and measures vere taken to curtail the activities if the batsmen. But thero Is no ise going backward to the old lays of freak deliveries. Tile umpires in the majors hare fought hard to pi-event icking of the ball or the applying of foreign substances. % It is said that in the American Association pitchers gei away with some of the cheating stuff. Dave Danforth, formerly of Columbus and now with the Browns, always was reputed to be a past master at fooling around with the liorsehide. He met plenty of opposition in the majors and when lie first went up had ball after ball :hrown out. It was charged that balls were tampered with before being tossed out and this indictment brought forth the new rule in the American League that the umpires should :ake the balls from the boxes. There is not much doubt, but that Dave “got away’’ with plenty of funny stuff in the A. A. He used lo strike out nine or ten or think lie had a bad day. Riggs Stephenson of the Indians says it is harder to hit in the Association than in the “big show.” One reason is that more curves are dished up. There may he other reasons. We remember in this connection one time many years ago when Lyman Johnson was mowing down ill opposition with his emery ball while pitching for Frankfort, Ind. He was almost unbeatable. One Sunday the Henry (111.) Grays came lo town and Hod Eller, now an Inlianapolis, traffic officer, was on Ihe mound for the visitors. It was just before his big sucess with Cincinnati. A1 Shaw, who always could smack ’em, crashed one on Eller in :he first Inning putting Frankfort ahead a couple of runs. Then Johnson started his emery workng. And it was some emery. One whole side of the ball was scuffed ip. He used a file. When EUer saw- what was up he started the same thing and added a few more. He shined the ball and lie scratched it up—and what else he did would fill a book. Frankfort players stepped up to the plate and stepped back to the bench after waving three times, weakly. The ball hopped up and down, his way and that. Everybody harl k foot in the bucket—footlose and ree—that was the idea. Frankort didn’t get any more runs. But he Illinois team could not score ither. Hits were thinks unknown. Baler In the Army we were capaln of a team which got Johnlon for a big game against a llvlsional champion outfit and he leat them. The diamond was •ather rough and he said the lobbies scratched up the .ball. Yes, hey did! Those were the good old days. Weren’t they, Hod. Toot your traffic cop’s whistle twice if we aren’t light. And now the National league wants to take a step backward and open up the days of trickery. Better not, better not. • * * 0E know one father and mother who are glad their son plays basketball on a oca I high school team. He ' is tome in bed every night at 10 I'clock. The gang around the :orner does not have the attraclon of old. Doubtless there are ■nore parents who feel the same ivay who have athletes for sons. Wo mention this for the benefit of some of the “crabs” who don’t be ievfc ijj athletics. '’And this lad’s father of whom ve are speaking goes a little arther with ids boy. “It's up to mu to keep in shape to give your >est. You live up to the rules or I’ll tell the coach,” that's the vay that wise father helps things dong.

SUPERB ELEVENS BATTLE IN TOURNAMENT OF ROSES FEATURE

CHANGES UNLIKELY IN PASS \ Big Grid Coaches Adopt Hands Off Policy Regarding Open Game. lit) I tilted Tres* NEW YORK, Dec. 25.—With such established authorities as Knute Uockne, Tad Jones. Glenn Warner, Fielding Yost. Bill Roper, Andy Smith, Jess Hawley and others too numerous to mention, lined up with a policy of ‘‘hands off,” there isn't much chance that the fathers of football will take any action against the forward pass at the next meeting of the football rules committee. Practically all of the leading coaches are of the opinion that the game is almost perfect now, is en joying its greatest popularity and they agree that forward pass is responsible for the growth of the game. “The open game,” Rockne and Yost said recently, “makes the game better for the spectator and for the player.” Speed and Science “The forward pass,” Edward K. Hall, chairman of the rules committee says, “has improved the game by putting speed and science ahead of beef and brawn." The complaints against the forward pass have come chiefly from coaches of teams that were defeated by forward passing attacks. “The forward pass, regardless of the perfection of its execution, is nol without a defense,” Yost said. “There isn't a play known to football that cannot be stopped by a defense against It.” For a man who has beer, associated with football for so many years. Yost has kept himself very modern. If he had not kept abreast of the times. Michigan would not be the great football institution that it is and Yost would be one of the old moss-back conservatives who cried when the forward pass was adopted and who have been spilling tears ever since. He’s Agreeable Coach Yost showed not only that he was a fine sportsman but that he was willing to experiment with any kind of a novelvy when he agreed to play two games against Minnesota next fall. Minnesota has the prospects of a wonderful team next fall and perhaps some of the Western Conference coaches were willing to find an excuse to keep them off their schedules. The Minnesota team has had great difficulty in getting conference opponents, some of the rival coaches falling back on the excuse that the shift used at Minnesota is illegal. “Some of them,” Yost says, “are afraid of the shift, it never was stopped until Michigan stopped it and we can do it again."

GOLFING PRO Willie Klein to Team With . Willie MacFarlane. Bp Timet Special | HOLLYWOOD, Fla., Dec. 25. After two months of careful appraisal of the professoinal golf talent of the country, Joe Kelly, Indianapolis, director of sports and athletics at HollywoodJ>y-the-Sea, Florida, announces that Willie Klein, youhg and scintillating Long Island professional, has been chosen as team-mate for Willie MacFarlane, national open champion, at Hollywood this winter, In the forthcoming important matches.

During the next three months MacFarlane and Klein will meet Hagen and Nichols, Armour and Bobby Jones, Compston. the lanky English star, and his foreign partner, and others of the aristocracy of golf professionalism.

FAMOUS Lpnpg 5 * CO LLEGE STARS ART CARLSON WON TWO GAMES Y r ~~~' OU often hear of a football player turning a kick-off, punt, intercepted pass, fumble for a toueh- . J down after an unusually lung run. thereby enabling his team to' pull a close game out of the lire. But did you ever hear of a fellow winning a pair of games though advancing the ball but a combined total of forty-two Inches? Nope 1 Well. Gribben of Case S.-ontitle School. Cleveland, accomplished such a feat. And by so doing got his name in the record books. Case was playing Kenyon College. The teams were evenly matched. Obviously the game -vas clone. Finally Case got the oval within a few yards of the Kenyon goal. Three tries at the line still found the Scientists a bare six inches from the final stripe. On the next try the ball was handed Gribben. who just managed to get over for the only touchdown’ of the fray. Eater the same season. Case was waging another bitter struggle. This time Mount Union was the opposing forae. Again a scoreless tie loomed. Again Case worked the ball down to scoring position. Again the foe held. As a final resort Griblx-n was again given the oval, carrying it acftiss from the onevard line, winning the game. . ' Thus Gribben eounted the victorious touchdowns in two games in one season though traveling only a total distance of a yard and six inches to score them.

South’s Prestige Boosted by Alabama Washington Overthrows California. \ By Billy Evans NRA Srntce Writer When Washington meets Alabama at Pasadena, Cal., New Year’s day in the Tournament of Roses classic, it will be a clash between two championship football teams. Washington, undefeated on the coast, conquerors of Stanford and California, holds the Paclflo Conference title. Alabama Is the champion of the South. Regardless of which team wins, the climate alibi will not be offered by the vanquished. Even Weather Basis Eastern and Middle West teams have been handicapped In the past by the almost misstimmer weather that usually greeted them on the coast. Alabama is accustomed to hot weather. It will be the first time the two teams in this big game have met on so even a basis as to weather conditions. Washington boasts a great team. Coached by Enoch Bagshaw, it was able to overthrow the reign of California that has lasted for five years on the coast. The outstanding stars of the Washington back field are Wilson at half back, an all American choice; Tesreau at full, the only man to ever outplay Nevers of Stanford, and Quarter Back Guttermsen, the brains of the team. Two-Time Champs , For two years Alabama, under Coach Wade, has won the southern championship. In the three years that Wade has directed football affairs at Alabama the team has suffered only three defeats. In the last twenty southern conference games played by Alabama, covering a period of three the Crimson Tide, as the team is known, has scored 540 points, against 34 for the opposition. Against all twenty-eight opponents during Wade's tenure of coaching at Alabama, his teams have scored 779 points, against 81 for their opponents. The greatness of the Alabama machine was first noticed nationally when it defeated the University of Pennsylvania team at Philadelphia. South Feels Honored When Alabama meets Washington at Pasadena it will be the first time a Southern eleven has been selected to appear In this big event. The South feels that the invitation to meet Washington definitely establishes the status of football in that section. This year's Alabama team is called one of the best the South ever has known. Washington has a similar rating on the Coast. It should be a great battle between two championship teams, well worthy of representing their respective sections. GREGG BALKS Veteran Left-Hander Wants to Play on Coast. Hu Timet Special SEATTLE, Dec. 25.—Vean Gregg, veteran left-hander, who was sent to New Orleans on option last summer by Washington and mow recently turned over to Birmingham, has given It out in Seattle that he will not play ball in the Southern Associatior next year. “If I can’t play in the Coast League, then I'm through as a pitcher,” he was quoted as saying. Washington got Gregg from the Seattle club, where he was a star, a year ago. HIT OVER .400 Aaron Ward of the Yankees batted .417 In the 1823 world series between the Giants and Yankees.

Pennock allowed 71 passes, fanned 88, hit two batters and made just two wild pitches during the campaign. YANK PLANS % Lazerre and Koenig to Get Thorough Trials. Hu Times Special NEW YORK, Dec. 23.—The bustle and clatter and trade talk revolving around the New York Yankees since the major league moguls left town has resolved itself Into some fairly definite information, to-wlt: Miller Huggins intends to make a first string second baseman out of Tony Lazerre, the minor league slugger from the Pacific coast, and to put Mark Koenig, St. Paul shortshop, into a regular Infield berth in place of Midget Wannlnger, who went to St. Paul. The Yankee manager is also said to be willing to part with Wallj Pipp and Aaron Ward, veteran first and second basemen, respectively, In exchange for a good pitcher. \ INTERSECTIONAL GAMES Colorado and West Virginia Teams Meet in 1926-27.
