Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.—Robert Jones was in town Friday mingling with the golf legislators. I always thought a happier name for him would be Rabot Jones. Certainly golf has never produced a more amazing scoring machine than

the Atlanta barrister. You wind him up and away he goes, up hills and down dales, clicking off pars, birdies and eagles with all the ease and facility of a barrel indulging in deep chested gentleman breathing exercises in the bathroom. Jones must be a machine. Indeed,

Bobby Jones

to his opponents he is an infernal machine. This season he won the American amateur championship for the fourth time , equaling the record of Jerry Travers. tt tt n Jerry, now retired and a sedate Wall Street gentleman, was in bis late thirties when he won his last championship. Robert the Rabot is a doddering old codger of twenty-seven summers. It would not be an unwise speculation, at the proper odds, that he may win the amateur once or twice again before Old Man Time bunkers him at the home hole. tt tt tt ALREADY HE HAS WON MORE BIG TIME CHAMPIONSHIPS THAN ANY PLAYER IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICAN GOLF. IN ADDITION TO HIS RECORD IN THE AMATEUR. HE HAS TO HIS CREDIT TWO WINS IN THE AMERICAN OPEN AND TWO IN THE BRITISH OPEN. • a tt tt GOLFERS last a long time, the natural golfers with well grooved swings, I mean. Possibly they last longer than any other type of athlete. Jones ought to win at least five or six more championships before his legs go back on him, and he ought to be one of the five best golfers in the world right up until he is fifty. Jones has reached that point in golf where he carries a tremendous psychological advantage into every match he plays, wilich makes it twice as tough on the young men who face him. Just as the rookie pitcher stands in awe at the sight of Babe Ruth so do the local champions who come to the amateur tournaments become fluttery in the presence of the glittering Georgian. tt a tt FEW OF JONES’ MATCHES IN THE FINALS ARE EVER CLOSE. THIS YEAR HE BEAT TOMMY PERKINS, BRITISH CHAMPION. IN THE FINALS. 10 AND 9. PERKINS WAS AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT GOLFER AGAINST JONES THAN HE HAD BEEN AGAINST GEORGE VOIGT THE DAY BEFORE. THE BRITISHER CARDED A 71 FOR HIS MORNING ROUND AGAINST VOIGT. AND TWENTYFOUR HOURS LATER. OVER THE SAME EIGHTEEN. HE NEEDED AN 81, A STRETCHER, AND A PULMOTOR. tt tt tt

JONES isn’t playing a great deal better now than he was in the years when he was struggling to win his first championship. The answer, or part of it, is that in those days his opponents looked on him as just another golfer. a a a But today it is different. Jones comes to the tournaments heralded as the Goliath of golf, and if a dissenting voice rises it is speedily silenced. He is one Goliath who works at his trade. tt a a BY WAY OF PROVING IT HE HAS WON FOUR AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIPS IN FIVE YEARS: OUT OF TWENTYFIVE MATCHES HE HAS WON TWENTYFOUR. AND IN MOST OF THESE IT WAS LIKE TAKING TAFFY FROM A TODDLER. THIS ROBERT THE RABOT IS JUST TOO GOOD. THAT'S ALL. LA BARBA STOPS YOUTH Fidel Given Hard Fight But Wins in Eighth Round. [til United Press SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 24.—A comparative novice gave Fidel La Barba, former flyweight champion of the world, one of the hardest battles of his career Friday night but lost when he was knocked out in the eighth round. Early in the eighth La Barba followed up that punch and sent Ravani to the canvas for a nine count with a left to the jaw. Two more punches to the head dropped Ravani again, this time for good.

Nine Struggles Are Featured Attractions of Day s Grid Menu

Purdue and Indiana Clash on Turf of Lafayette Stadium. WABASH AT DE PAUW Big Ten Crown Rests on Wisconsin Fray. Nine of the choicest tidbits of the current football season were to be the featured portions of this afternoon’s gridiron menu, and from the early appearance of matters the day shaped up as the greatest Saturday afternoon of the pigskin campaign. Two games in the state were to draw “full houses” and were expected to furnish plenty of thrills and excitement. Purdue was to take on Indiana at Ross-Ade stadium, Lafayette, in the thirty-first renewal of their annual rivalry battle and the Boilermakers were slight favorites to win. Wabash Favorite Wabash and De Pauw clashed in the other traditional rivalry struggle at Greencastle, and if there was any favorite it was the Little Giants. Next in importance for Hoosier followers was the Wiscensin-Minne-sota setto at Madison and on which the Big Ten title rested. A defeat for the Badgers would throw the conference race into a tie, witn several teams entitled to a share of the honors. And the Gophers happened to be regarded as likely winners by many fans and critics. Two “Hot” Tilts Ohio and Illinois battled it out at Champaign in their rivalry struggle, and lowa and Michigan clashed in another "hot” fray at Ann Arbor. The only other conference team in action, Northwestern, faced a real battle with Dartmouth at Evanston, one of the big intersectional tilts of the afternoon. Over in the east the battle between the undefeated Carnegie Tech eleven and New York university was to the top-lining attraction. The game was to be fought out at Pittsburgh and the Tartans were regarded as favorites. Army Vs. Nebraska Army was to fight it out with the beefy Nebraska squad at West Point and it was to be the flying cleats of Cagle against the "bone-crushing” drive of the westerners. The last of the nine frays was the Harvard-Yale encounter at New Haven, one of the oldest traditional battles of the nation and the Bulldogs were regarded as the best bets.

The green and white gridiron warriors revenged their defeat at the hands of Shortridge a week ago and ran rough shod over Manual Friday at .the Delavan Smith athletic uelo, 45 to 0. At no time after Tech gained possession of the ball after the first kick-off was there any doubt existing about the superiority of Coach John Mueller’s eleven over the south aiders. Individually, among that eleven of superior football player.? was an outstanding player, Horn, a stocky ball-toting halfback. Burris, Manual halfback, tried hard to gain ground, but Brown, big Tech tackle, smothered hi sefforts. Kleppe kept the Tech team battling uphill for their touchdowns by getting away some great punts, but aside from that the red and white only presented spasmodic defensive ability.

Cadets Face Hard Fracas With Huskers Elusive Cagle May Be Means of Stopping Vaunted Nebraskans. BY FRANK GETTY UnlUd Trttt Sport! Mltor NEW YORK, Nov. 24.—The second mid-western threat to the peace of mind of what started out to be an unbeaten football eleven showed up on the plains of West Point Friday, when Nebraska’s powerful football squad, thirty-three strong, arrived for a workout preliminary to today's intersectional game with Biff Jones' cadets. Having received one rude setback at the hands of Notre Dame, the cadets were in no mood to hold lightly these Com Huskers who have swept aside all opposition this season aside from a scoreless tie with Pittsburgh last week. The one game lost by the Army this season was lost because the Irish stopped Cagle. This fast, elusive ball carrier was the object of constant attention and lost some of the prestige he had won earlier in the fall. Today may find Cagle running wild once more, aided by better interference and a bitter choice of plays, in which case the Corn Huskers are in for an unhappy afternoon. The elevens are well matched. There has been little opportunity, fortunately, for comparative scores, so it will be impossible to err in estimating the outcome on any such uncertain premise. The Cadets will have no easy time, but they should win today.

Leave Rules Alone, Says Jess Hassley Dartmouth Coach Believes No Important Grid Changes Necessary. Bp T niteri J'res.i CHICAGO, Nov. 24.—What's the matter with the football rules? That’s the question that bobs up each year at the dost of the season, and about which there are decided variations in opinion. An eastern coach and resident of the west, Jess Hawley of Dartmouth, who has developed both eastern and national championship teams, is one of the first this fall, to express an opinion on the subject. He says: “Leave the rules alone. They are al lright as they are, both from the spectator’s angle, that of the players and the coaches. And above let’s keep all the kicking there Is in the game. There's little enough now. “It takes a coaching staff several years to work out the possibilities of one offensive scheme, and coaches know that even a slight change in rules can upset a team’s progress. Very often what appears to be a minor or even harmless change in rules will ruin several years of development. “By this I do not mean that there should be no changes, because there must be changes if the game is to Improve as it has in the past. I mean that changes should be inaugurated only when we know they will be of value. It’s the guesse* that hurt.”

the majority of collegs elevens closing their season today there s nothing more to save up for and all the moleskin wearers felt duty bound to get outh there and “die” for the last time. Nearly all cripples were off the “horsepital” list and It was to be a case of dog eat dog in the various traditional struggles over the land. It’s been a great season with many upsets and attendance has been fine nearly everywhere except Indianapolis. But that’s no surprise in this town. It’s hard to drag out customers in Indianapolis when there’s a gate fee attached. n tt a MILLER HUGGINS. BASKING IN THE FLORIDA SUN, IS MAKING THE WINTER TOUGH FOR OTHER AMERICAN LEAGUE MANAGERS.
