■” 'ALMOST every time the rules A committee starts tinkering -with the football regulations unforeseen complications arise during the season which make further changes Imperative. Albon Holden in the last issue of the Eig Ten Weekly tells of a peculiar touchdown awarded Pennsylvania in the Chicago game. Murphy, Penna quarter back, got away on a long run and was tackled heavily in the corner of the field a yard from the goal line and about the same distance from the side line. The ball bounced out of his hands, rolled over the goal line and then hopped out of bounds in the end zone over the extended side line. Tho officials ruled a touchdown because of the new regulations wltlch provide that a fumbled ball in the field of play which rolls out of bounds belongs to the team which last touched it at the spot where it crossed the line.'

Murphy had touched the ball last so It belonged to Pennsylvania. When it was brought in from out of bounds it was behind the Chicago goal line. Theoretically it had been carried there by a Penna player although really he had lost possession of the ball one yard from the goal. We hfive looked up the actual wording of the rule governing fhts play. It says: A fumbled ball which goes out of bounds BETWEEN THE GOAL LINES shall belong to the side whose player last touched it in the field of play, at the point where the ball crossed the side line. It does not appear as though the play is covered in the rules because of the words “between the goal lines.” However, the end zone and side lines extended are g part of the field of play. The officials at the Penn-Chicago game could hardly do anything else but allow the touchdown. < Something must be done with the rule as it now starfds. Even though it is not the question of a touchdown, a man can Intentionally fumble the hall when tackled hear the side lines and gain a few yards, besides having the ball brought in fifteen yards instead of being put in play close to the line. The new rule is good enough as far as it goes. It does away with the mad scrambles out-of-bounds for the ball which have in times past resulted in injuries to players, who have bumped Into benches etc. Some sort of curtailment must be made, however, so that a team can not abuse the rule and gain ground on a fumble. * * * P" V“IT,THOUGH ‘ Pennsylvania I will p|ay Illinois at Urbana L_AI Saturday, Butler also will be In the game, Now, don’t get • excited. Butler is the center of the invading eleven. It is said that he is one of tho greatest developed in the East for several seasons. His line play has aided materially in the victories chalked up this year by Lou Young’s team. There should be quite a battle in the center of the line with Reltsch of Illinois opposing tho Penna star. Reitsch is one ,of the outstanding pivot men of the Big Ten. • * * mHERE is a rather strange development noticed among Indianapolis football sharpshooters this week. While most of the newspaper stories are making Pennsylvania the favorite (Turn to Page 9)

1794 Sabbath Law Beats Macks

Bti T'nitcd Prrxs HARRISBURG. Pa.. Oct. 28.—Superior Judge William H. Hargest of the Dauphin County Court ruled today that the Philadelphia Athletics cannot legally play 'Sunday baseball In Pennsylvania. The opinion was given in the quo warranto proceedings instituted by Attorney General Woodruff against the charter of the Philadelphia American League Baseball Club in behalf of the commonwealth. The commonwealth maintained the charter powers granted the Mackmen did not permit the club to violate the blue laws of 1794. A plea advanced by the Athletics club that It was not subject to the provisions of the blue laws because baseball was unknown when these laws were enacted, was dismissed. The quo warranto proceedings were instituted' as the result of a Sunday game played by the Athletics and the White Sox in Philadelphia Aug. 22. 1 CHEER PENN 5,000 Rooters Encourage Quakers Before lllini Fray. Bv United Press PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 28.—The University of Pennsylvania football squad left for Champaign, 111., today for the game with the'University of Illinois on Saturday. 1 More than 6,000 undergraduates and alumni of the Quaker university cheered the varsity at final practice Wednesday.

Regardless of claims, regardless of “tremendous cut-price sales” —smashing reductions, etc.—no store can equal Hauger values. A merchant is in business for profit—His selling prices must cover the cost of his goods, meet all running expenses and then some! HAUGER PRICES ARE THE LOWEST—BECAUSE WE BUY WITH THE ASSOCIATION OF 39 STORES AND BUY FOR LESS, AND BECAUSE OUR RELATIVE SELLING COSTS ARE THE LOWEST IN THE CLOTHING INDUSTRY. That this condition produces the greatest values is just as plain and fundamental as two and two are four.

CLASS OF FOUR CHAMPS OF BOXING QUESTIONED

Flowers, Latzo, Mandell and Taylor Not Regarded Highly as Kings of Their Divisions.

By Paul W. White United Press Stitt Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 28—From the list of approved champions an drawn up by the National Boxing Association, It would appear more upsets of tttleholders might be expected before this hectic year has run Its course. The association’s list was as follows: Heavyweight—tpene Tunney. Light Heavyweight—Jack Delaney. Middleweight—Tiger Flowers. Welterweight—Pete Latzo. Lightweight— Sammy Mandell. Featherweight— Ootn. Bantamweight—Bud Taylor. Flyweight—Fidel La Barba. \ No leas than four of these box-, ers may have their crowns taken away from them. There are plenty of fistic followers who believe that Flowers, Latzo, Mandell and Taylor are not the class of their divisions. Tunney, Delaney and La Barba

City Bowling Gossip

WHALE OF A MATCH! The Capitol No. 1 League was the scehe of great excitement Wednesday night when the Silver Flash and leading Em-Roes came together. After the smoke had cleared away It was found that about every kind of record had been broken for this league. The Silver Flash won the odd game, but had to go over 1,100 to do it. Eddie Hornberger was In wonderful form and led the Flash team with a great 710 total with game scores of 174, 259 and 277. Box scores of this match: , EM-ROES Cl. Schott 266 235 168—659 E.

A stubborn ten pin in his last game on a perfect hit robbed him of a 700 total. Flash has been due for some time and promises the boys some rnrq/entertainment from here on in. The Werbe-Meissen team defeated the Marott’s two out of three games, dropping the last one by eleven pins. This match, coupled with the fact that the leading Em-Roes also were being defeated, tended to tighten the Capitol No. 1 league race considerably. Van Buren was the leading pin-getter In this match, with a fine 643 on games of 213, 240 and 190.

Sykes Thoma of Chicago won the Peterson bowling classic held in St. Louis last Saturday and Sunday which netted him a purse of $2,500 and the SI,OOO diamond medal. His games were 208, 275, 213, 214, 245, 214, 283 and 208 for a total of 1,810, anew record for this event. Joe Fliger thrilled the crowd with a perfect 300. Every bowler should be a committee of one to see that his league enters organized bowling. The dues are small and benefits large. Eddie Hoffstatter wishes to call all bowlers’ attention to the fact the city tourney this year will be held earlier than usyal. The tourney starts Nov. 27 and entries for the event close Nov. 17. The entry fee will be $2 for each event which also covers the co%t of games. Bea booster! Boys, while handing out the pats for good shooting in Capitol No. 1 League, let us not forget Martin and Reltzell for their efforts to keep the alleys in the best of shape to make these scores possible.

generally are conceded to be topnotchers In their respective classes. Delaney’s followers firmly believe he Is the man to remove Tunney from the heavyweight throne, but such a bout is not likely for many months. The foregoing list does net mention Tod Morgan, “junior lightweight" champion, who deserves a title of some sort, being one of the cleverest, shiftiest fighters the ring lias known for years. Flowers’ most recent bout—that in which he lost on a foul to Maxey Rosenbloom when the title was not at stake—indicated, that the dusky middleweight king Is not at his best and might have difficulty In retaining the crown against a first class 'opponent. Mandell, In the opinion of many fight enthusiasts, would be pressed to keep his title against “Ace” Hudkins, Nebraska wildcat. Latzo Is of championship calibre, out there are many who believe Joe !>unde©, the batter ng Baltimore boy, is the better man. As to the naming of Taylor as bantamweight champion, an arbitrary edict of the National Boxing Association based upon the suspension by the Illinois State athletic commission of Champion Phil Rosenberg, there are many who object to that manner of miming an official tltleholder.

Mishawaka H. S. in ‘Big Ten’ Lead

Northern Indiana Is certain of at least a share in the Indiana high school football conference championship and probably will claim the mythical State prep title. Mishawaka high school last Saturday practically won the championship of the “Big Ten" by defeating South Bend, 7-6, before 15,000 fans. The Maroons concluded their conference program at South Bend with an unßoiled record, defeating Elwood, Marion and South Bend. Only three teams, Emerson of Gary; Morton of Richmond and Central of Evansville, have a chance to tie the Mishawaka eleven for the title. Emerson has but one conference game remaining on Its schedule and that is with South Bend. The Emersonlans are favorites to take the decision In that game and critics are Inclined to believe at least a twoway tie will mark the Inaugural season of the Indiana prep conference.
