PLAYING AFIELD With Billy Evans r ILL ROPER of Princeton is a one of .football's foremost coaches. Tiger teams always are well tutored in the strategy of the game as well as the fundamental::. Bill Roper is a great coach because he always is willing to learn,
not too proud to accept the grid wisdom of others. In the Yale game, Princeton used a short forward pass behind the line that did n’t seem to travel but a few yards. It was very deceptive and resulted in a number of early gains

that helped Princeton to its only touchdown. Later, while talking to one of Roper's assistants, I commented on the deceptiveness of the short pass. “We picked that up from Cornell,” was his reply. tt tt tt “Our team had trouble solving it and Roper decided it would be a good play to use against Yale. We worked on it for a week and had it moving smoothly.” tt it tt KNOW OF OTHER CASES HILE watching Yale and VY/ Princeton take their prelimW in ary workout prior to the start of the game, it was but natural the absence of Caldwell from the Yale lineup should be discussed. I expressed regret that some one had to spill the beans at a most inopportune moment. "There hasn’t been any secret about Caldwell and his playing at Brown as a freshman,” replied the scout, a former eastern star. "His case didn’t seem to come under the transfer rule, so no one objected to his playing with Yale. “Asa matter of fact. I can name you> three other stars on prominent elevens, whose cases are similar to that of Caldwell, yet no attention has been paid to them.” tt u tt The Caldwell case, however, should serve to make the leading colleges look closely into the pedigree of their athletes from now on. tt tt tt BROWN BEATEN OFTEN a tough year this has \X/ been for Brown —and next YV year it will be even tougher in* several respects. Brown has taken six trimmings in a row. Undoubtedly there is something under the surface at Brown. Tuss McLaughry is too good a coach and Brown had too good a team to experience such a terrible season. tt a tt Brown has been a factor in eastern athletics for so many years it is certain the alumni will step into the picture and try to straighten out the situation.
Tex Denies Trying to Stop Trial of Jacks; Admits Dempsey Contract Rickard Aroused by Scandal Talk in Connection With Kearns’ Suit; Jury Shadowing Rumors Heard.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL United Frees Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Nov. 19.—Aroused by the statements that he and the boxing business would be imperilled if the Dempsey-Kearns suit went through the Newark court to a jury, Tex Rickard has gone into action. Following the postponement of the hearing of the suit in which Jack Kearns threatened to blow the lid off theboxing racket and take Rickard and Dempsey to jail with him if he went, it was reported that the promoter had forced Dempsey to get together with his manager out of court and save the business. “Let them shoot,” Rickard sputtered. “I’m in this case only as a witness and they can’t do anything to me. They’ve been saying a lot about me but I haven’t had a chance to talk yet.” Rickard admitted, however, that he didn’t want to see the case decided in court. “From the start of this wrangle I have tried to get them together. Nort that I was in any danger or that I thought the boxing business could be harmed by anything that could be proved to a jury. "I have known Dempsey and Kearns since they came into the big money. I made some money out of them, but I have paid them more than I made. I knew both of them so well that I thought they ought to settle their differences and be friends. “I did make attempts to get them together and have them keep the case out of court. But so did a lot of other fellows who felt the same way about it. I wasn’t trying to protect myself. Those lawyers and trial costs run into large money. “I’m willing to be exposed in court. A lot of fellows said they were going to blow off my lid and the lid of the business. The case is in court now and let them go ahead.” Rickard admitted he signed a contract with Dempsey after he had discussed a match with Kearns,

but he said he could torove that he did business with Dempsey only after Dempsey had told him Kearns had no authority to do any business for him. The statement made by Kearns that he could prove that Rickard was actually Dempsey’s manager and that he could cause some income tax investigations if he wanted to, failed to get much of a rise out of Rickard. There were some reports that Kearns would have the jury shadowed, but he blamed the'reports as coming from the other side. He said he had been told that Dempsey had made many friends in New Jersey in recent weeks. Kearns declared he thought Dempsey’s counsel was trying to slip something him but that if anything happened he would pull the suit out of New Jersey and have It tried in New York.

Risko Does Best Against Strong Ring Opponent Bit United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 19--A roly-poly baker boy from Cleveland. Johnny Risko, stands out as trouble maker in the heavyweight division. Just two years ago, before Gene Tunney became heavyweight champion he pumped every blow in his repertoire at Risko, and the big burly baker stood up to him and came back for more. Risko’s backers asserted Johnny knocked Tunney from his feet, although it seeqied that Gene merely had lost his balance. Then a year ago, when Paul Berlenbach was at his best, Risko knocked him down twice and won a decisive victory. In early September, Jack Delaney went out to Cleveland to pick up a little jeasy change. He got that and in addition a beating from Risko. Risko looks best against good men. second raters cause him plenty of trouble.

Shortridge Places Five Players on Times All-City High School Team Cathedral Is Honored With Four and Tech Lands Two; Blue and White Ball Toters Shine.
BY DICK MILLER Shortridge High School, winner of the city public school football championship, placed five players on the Times all-city high school mythical selection for 1927. Cathedral named four and Technical two. Manual, Washington and Boys’ Prep failed to develop players strong enough for the first team. Manual played one player on the second team. Os the five Shortridge players on the first squad three are backfield men. The Blue and White possessed a strong coterie of ball toters in Zimmerman, an extremely smart interscholastic signal barker; John Miller, a powerful line plunger, and L. Skinner, a dazzling open field runner and off-tackle smasher. Cathedral, with Joe Dugan as their chief ball carrier, did not present a powerful offense, but had a very strong line. Much favorable comment was heard of Laughlin of Manual and Brlsmick of Washington. Ennis and Herold are clever ends, hard tacklers and deadly on gripping forward passes. Mueller and Mansfield do not come up to the all-round standard set by the two first team all-city wingmen. One could not wish for better tackles than the hard smashing Brugman and Kendall. Likewise, the powerful guards. Sullivan and Hemer. Connolly stands head and shoulders above any center in the city. He is shifty, a hard and sure tackier, and the bulk ot his team's defense. Rasmussen, playing on a weak team, starred at times in a manner that stamped him as a capable player. Rhem also is a clever lineman. There is very little difference between Wiltshire and Brugman, except that Brugman has more drive and hits harder. Indianapolis had two outstanding high school t e ams this fall, Shortridge and Cathedral. A game between them would be interesting. Man-

Nov. 19.—The 1927 football championship of the Big Ten Conference hinges on two games to be played Saturday, one at Columbus where Illinois meets Ohio State, and the other at Ann Arbor,, where Michigan and Minnesota renew hostilities. The Big Ten season close? Saturday. If play runs true to form, Illinois and Minnesota should win. thus giving Illinois the best claim to the title by virtue of five victories, no ties, and no defeats as compared with Minnesota's record of three victories and one tie. Illinois Favored On the strength cf its showing to date, Illinois should wiry The Minnesota-Micbigan contest is about an even bet. Three other games are on Big Ten program and although none of the contestants has any chance at the title, there is enough feeling between them to make for some real football. Wisconsin comes to Chicago to close the season against Coach Stagg's Maroons and it wouldn't be safe to give odds either way on the outcome.

City Gridiron Title Won by Blue Eleven Shortridge Romps to Easy Triumph Over Manual Football Squad. The city high school gridiron crown rested today at Shortridge High School for one more year, the lease having been prolonged Friday afternoon at Irwin Field when Lon Goldsberry s Blue and White gridiron warriors trampled Manual, 33 to 0, in the third and final game of the series for the city public high school championship. The Manual eleven Friday, fighting gamely on a snowy, frost-covered field before a thin crowd qf supporters proved little match for the smooth-working noi\h side aggregation. The city champs scored in every quarter and proved stronger in every department of play than their Red opponents. The punting of John Miller, Shortridge full, gave the Blue a big advantage and the swift moving attack of the Goldsverrycoached eleven had the Manualites moving backward. George Zimmerman, Blue quarter, handled his team in masterful style, and aside from his sparkling work, the play of Capt. Lewis Skinner, Meredith Rose, Miller Ennis, Wiltshire and Spprgeon also featured. Laughlin proved the best ground gainer for the Manual club, arid, along with Rasmussen, sturdy guard, and Henselmeier, center, proved best for Manual. BATTLE ROYAL ADDED All-Negro Show Wednesday to Have Extra’Attraction. A battle royal will top off the evening’s fistic entertainment next Wednesday at the Douglas Park Skating Rink, when the Douglas ,A. C. presents its all-Negro boxing show. Johnny Milton, who is to meet Buddy Swanegan, of Marion, in the semi-windup, returned from Chicago Thursday to wind up his training here.
