Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

New YORK, Nov. 17.—The Tiger met the Bulldog today in the oldest football game known to man, woman or beast. ’Way back in 1873 Princeton and Yale teams started fighting it out on the grid-

iron. This preceded, in civilization’s forward march, the co.-n cure, the garden hose and the Freudian school. The fact that these two universities are still competing with each other on terms of fashionable and friendly enmity and that there has been rib serious outbursts of temper or

Joe Williams

jealousy through all these years would seem to indicate that it is quite possible to blend, in sports, a lasting rivalry with a lasting sportsmanship. There have, as you may know, been a few conspicuous instances to the contrary. n tt When the Bulldog beat the Tiger last year in the closing minutes of play on a long forward pass, Hobcn to Fishwick, it marked the Elis’ twenty-seventh victory over their New Jersey foemen, as against fifteen defeats and nine ties. This is mentioned as a service to the reader who just must have his statistics. >t a u The experts tell you the outcorni of today's game lies in the lap qf the gods. Personally I considered this a very unusual place to leave a game of such . great importance. After all who are the gods that they should get a break like this? It’s the experts themselves who are entitled to the rich rewards of prophecy. ts u jt rr IS TRUE OF COURSE. THESE TIGER-BULLDOG GAMES ARE INVARIABLY DISTINGUISHED BY THE ELEMENTS OF UNCERTAINTY. IT IS NOT AT ALL DIFFICULT TO GO WRONG ON THEM. PERHAPS IT IS BEST, ON REFLECTION. THAT THE RESULT SHOULD BE PLACED IN THE LAP OF THE GODS. tt tt tt SINGULARLY, the Tiger is at his best when he threatens to be at his worst. Some of his most impressive performances have been recorded against the Bulldog on days when ho was expected to be no more dangerous than a wooden musket in the powdered hands of a Ziegfeld chorister. It is something more than legend around Princeton that to be cast as the underdog is to make triumph over Yale certain. a a a There is another side to the picture. The great Tiger teams, or the Tiger teams that are thought to be great, rarely ever perform that way. The situation is quite baffling. All Set for Butler Fray in New Bowl Everything is in readiness, for Butler’s clash with Earlham in the new Bulldog bowl this afternoon at 2. The “Fighting Quakers” arrived in the city this morning and the visiting team will trot on the field ready to send its strongest lineup against the Blue and White. Assistant Coaches Hinkle, Nipper and Hyde sent the Bulldogs through a stiff workout Thursday on a soggy field. The team was sent through a light signal drill Friday afternoon. Thursday the Bulldogs still revealed some difficulty in stopping Earlham forward pass plays as used by the freshmen. Should the Earlham aerial attack materialize Saturday the locals will be forced to use their speediest running attacks to offset any gains the Quakers may make.

Old Conference Rule Threatens to Bar Me Lain Bu United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 17.—The ghost of an old Big Ten rule threatens to end the football career of Mayes McLato, University of lowa Indian full back, after this season. Before entering lowa, McLain played two years at Haskell institute for Indians. It is classed generally as a secondary school. This is his first year of eligibility at lowa, and he was expected to enjoy two more years. Now it seems many years ago—about 1904—a ruling was made in the Big Ten classing Haskell as a college insofar as football was concerned. Major John L. Griffith, commissioner of the Big Ten, said McLain could be declared eligible for two more years by a conference vote.

Two touchdowns in the third quarter of the conflict were the sole scores of the day. Tech was the aggressor in the opentog half of play and held the up r hand almost the entire first and second quarters. The Arsenal team kept pushing the Shortridgers deep into their own territory and the north siders were kept busy holidng for downs at critical moments anti punting out of danger.

Detail Play, Shortridge and Technical

First Quarter Compton kicked off for Shortridge and Leppincott of Tech returned to his own 45-yard line. The Arsenalites found the going tough and punted to the Blue 20-yard line. The heavy field handicapped both teams on the offense and exchanges of punts {pUowed. Compton punted from his own 20-yard line to his own 45-yard line and Tech started a determined line-smashing attack. A five-yard penalty against Shortridge for offside gave Technical the initial first down of the fray and Caine of Tech added another first down by skirting left end for a substantial gain. This put the oval on the Shortridge 12-yard line. Here the Shortridge defense stiffened and Caine tried a place kick. It failed to go through and Shortridge punted out of danger to Its own 45-yard line.

The Shortridge team was able to stop the east side drive at critical moments, then kicked out of danger.

Both sides were off-side as the north siders tried a line play for the extra point and Shortridge tried again with a forward pass, but failed. Score: Shortridge, 6; Technical, 0.

Compton then punted to the Tech 40-yard line. The east siders launched a drive and made a first down when Lutz crashed through right tackle.

Oh, Boy!Here's What Is Called One Sweet Kick Bp .V EA Service MILWAUKEE, Wis., Nov. 17. About eight years ago, a barefooted youngster amused himself by kicking tin cans around the streets of that section of town here known as Little Italy. Just recently, this youngster, now playing high school football, let loose a kick that is still being talked about. He is Santo Curro, quarter back of a high school team here, and his kick soared 70 years and then it rolled thirty. One hundred yards! “I didn’t realize how far it was going,” he said afterward. “I never had kicked more than 50 yards before in my life, but I suppose I put more in that one because the opposing center was right on me and I had to hustle to get the ball away. We were right in our end zone.”

Joe Glick Beats Gans by Decision Bn I r.ilcd Press NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—Following one of the worst exhibitions of fighting ever offered by two championship contenders, Joe Glick of Williamsburg, N. Y„ was named today as the probable next opponent of Sammy Mandell, lightweight champion. Glick was declared the winner Friday night over Baby Joe Gans of California. Glick got away to a good start because Gans is notoriously slow in getting warmed up. After the fifth round of dancing, tugging and hauling, the Negro lightweight began to cut loose and in the closing sessions had the Williamsburg boy glad to hang on. There was a gasp of surprise when Joe Humphries announced Glick as the winner, Espinosa Stays With Leaders Bp United Press PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 17.

Dribbling in Basket Sport Storm Center Joint Rules Committee Seeks to Eliminate Style of Attack. Bp United Press NEW YORK, Nov. 17,-The dribble threatens to cause most of the controversy in basketball this season if the interpretation meeting of eastern officials, coaches and players held Friday night at the Astor hotel, is a fair indication of viewpoint of the country at large toward the 1928-29 rules. The desire of the rules committee to lesse ndribbling caused the following interpretation to be added to the rules at the annual rules meeting in April. “If a dribbler charges into an opponent, or makes persona lcontact with an opponent, without an apparent effort to avoid such contact, a personal foul shall be called on the dribbler. If, despite the dribbler’s effort to avoid contact, personal contact ensues, eithe rplayer, or both, may be guilty; but the greater responsibility is on the dribble rif he tries to dribble by an opponent who is in his path.” L. S. St, John of Ohio State, chairman of the committee, said the intention of the rules committee was to dc away with the dribble as much as possible. Stalling was scored by St. John, who said thst everything possible is being done to speed up the game and prevent it from lagging. The new “held ball” rule is interpreted to apply only when it is evident that the player does not intend to put the ball in play. Time should be permitted for the player’s team mates to get into position to receive a pass before calling a penalty. Under these conditions a "held ball” should not be called until five seconds o rmore have elapsed Defore the ball is put into play.
