COLLEGE FOOTEALL NOW SECOND NATIONAL SPORT

Sum-up of 1926 Season Shows Interest in Grid Game Has Reached Remarkable Proportions.

By Henry L. Farrell, I ntteii Press >S tfitt Corrrsoondent NEW YORK. Dec. 16.—College football in 1926 reached such astonishing proportions It may l>e regarded as the second national sport. It never will kil! baseball, of course, but the records made for attendance and receipts this season and tho barometer of public interest showed the extent o f its development. The receipts of the Army-Navy game have not been published, but considering the sums purchasers gave to speculators for seats, It la certain more than $1,000,000 went out of the public pocket. As surprises were prominent in other fields of sport through the year, football also furnished several remarkable upsets. The defeat of Notre Dame by Tech was the outstanding form reversal of the season annd Navy’s victory over Michigan came a close second. Rig Game New Year's There is no official national champion, but the New Year’s day game In Pasadena between Alabama and Stanford can come close to deciding the best team of the year. Navy generally was accepted as the best team in the East although Lafayette did not lose a game. Notre Dame, Michigan and Northwestern ranked high In the Middle West. There was no Red Grange, Ernie Nevers or George Wilson running Che field, because the best ball carriers of the season didn’t draw the publicity that last year’s trio did.

Herb Joesting, Minnesota full back; Moon Baker, Northwestern quarter back; Billy Kelly, Montana quarter back, and Morton Kaer, Southern California hack, were the most discussed players of the season. Many Star Linemen The number of star linemen developed was an unusual feature of the season and the swing of style to strong line play was considered by the coaches and technicians to have been the big event of the year. Professional football finished Its second season, but rather groggy in spota. Another historic feature of the college grid season was the dissolution of the ancient "Big Three.” Eviction that developed on the eve of the Prince to nHarvard game, added to bad feeling of long standing, caused Princeton to withdraw and sever all relations with Harvard.

—LOOKING ’EM OVER—

HE WAS PREPARED FOR ANYTHING Otto Borchert. owner of the Milwaukee Brewers, was in Chicago Wednesday mingling with the big leaguers. t In addition to a cane, he was accompanied by his club manager and a,n attorney. Perhaps Otto feared he might become too exuberant and would need assistance, both physical and legal. Red Killefer, Seattle manager, has been away from home a month and has landed one bail player. . . . Red will have to hire a staff of expert accountants to fix him up a reasonable expense report. WINNING PENNANTS IN WINTER. Player managers soon become bench managers aLer they attend a few winter baseball conventions. . . . Highballs in the off season dim the old eye for curve balls in the summer. A name of a ball player easy to remember. Tony Lazxeri. He struck out with the bases filled in the world series. Someone asked Pongo Joe Cantillon his nationality; what race he belonged to. . . . And he replied: "I’m half Scotch —and half seltzer!" THE LURE OF THE PIGSKIN. Freddie Lindstrom. regular third baseman of the stew York Giants, says he would rather have been a half back on a Notre Dame football team than anything else. . . . Evidently the hot corner is not hot enough to meet Freddie’s idea of a thrill. The New York six-day bike race is over. But it could have been worse. For instance, an overtime period. Eddie Collins, vet second sucker, has a lot of baseball brains, but his legs have lost luster and have marred his pastiming. . , . And he is out of a Job. . . . Consult Tlllle the Typist.
