Talking It Over WITIi JOE WILLIAMS
New York, Oct. 19. WHEN Hack Wilson arrived in Chicago the other day with the beaten Cubs, a crowd of representative loafers fathered a t the terminal to give him a roaring ovation. Wilson professed to be greatly surprised at all this yipping and hip-hipping in his behalf, especially since he h#d had the misfortune to lose two basballs in the glare of a vicious Philadelphia sun, the net result of which was the loss of that particular ball game and possibly the world series. a a a The phenomenon of the situation was qultf bfond Wilson, and with a frank* nrt* '•hanrtfrhtlf of th* Let nervlll* Wilsons h** delivered himself of the following piot*ant comment: ’*! can’t ficure vou fellows out. When I'm eoinr all rirht vou ride me a"? " 4 h ' n I’m poinr terrible you cheer me. What do you want?” * tt tt ONE OP THESE DAYS WILSON WILL ( LEARN THAT LIFE IS PRECISELY LIKE THAT AND THAT THE MOB ALWAYS J FINDS IT EASIER TO BE MAUDLIN IN ITS £ .TIMENT THAN KEEN IN ITS APPREC. ■ TION. I’M NOT AT ALL SURE THAT THE SPORTS CUSTOMER DIFFERS : VITALLY IN HIS ODD EMOTIONAL RE- ■ ACTIONS FROM THE AVERAGE BIPED. WHOSE INTERESTS RUN TO OTHER ' AND SANER HELDS.

WHOSE CHECK FOR THE j COMMUNITY CHEST FUND WAS NEVER j LATE OR SKIMPY. tt a a YOU heard that Capone was a very much misunderstood per- j son.

ONE NIGHT A CROWD m MADISON SQUARE GARDEN BECAME SO DEMONSTRATIVE IN ITS ANTAGONISM THAT THE THEN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD FOUND IT AEVISABLE TO LEAVE THE PREMISES. MUCH OF THIS HOSTILITY WAS DUE TO A POPULAR BELIEF THAT HE WOULD NOT DEFEND HIS CHAMPION- j SHIP AGAINST HARRY WILLS. THE NEGRO. a tt tt A FEW years later another fight crowd in the Carden stood and , cheered the same Dempsey for ten j frantic minutes, rendering him an | o- ation the like of which in point i of spirit and spontaneity has been accorded to few kings or cor.querers in history. Dempsey was no longer the champion. He was the underdog. Somehow this seemed to make a difference. tt a tt once had a talk with Dempsev about fight crowds and what tbey meant to him. Because he had not gone to war popular ' sentiment was squarely against him at the start. Even when he whipped the uninspiring Willard he was not accepted with an enthusiastic acclaim. "I think the *flrst*time a fight crowd ever cheered me." said Dempsey "was the nleht I fought Firpo. Up to then, every time I was introduced the sour notes drowned out the scattered applause that came from mv friends. I think I was a hit overcome bv the sensation of having the crowd with me that night. At anv rate I know I went out resolved to put Firpo awav with a punch if I could fust to show the crowd that I appreciated its support. tt a a “MpHAT resolve almost cost me X my championship. I discarded all caution and tore at Firpo rather blindly. I missed with a swinging left and as I did he caught me in close with a right that knocked me dizzy, though it was not observable to the ringsiders. A few moments later he had knocked me clear out of the ring." a a a With this experience still fresh In memory Dempsey admits he isn't quite sue' even now whether a friendly reception is os desirable to a fighter as • carload of rag* berries. Cathedral Pats Over Exciting Triumph, 7to 6 Cathedral high school gridders thrilled their home-coming alumni and students with a 7-6 victory scored over the powerful Sheridan team at Washington park Friday. The game had 2000 fans on their feet throughout, with the locals showing great defensive strength and keeping the ball out of scoring danger. . The Irish drove down the field in the second quarter for a touchdown by Smith. The extra point was kicked by Bubric. and it proved to be the winning margin. The first quarter had revealed little scoring possibility by either team. Sheridan came back strong and rushed the ball down the field with line thrusts. The Cathedral line held downs on their own threeyard mark. On the first Cathedral attempt after regaining the ball the Irish fumbled and Sheridan recovered. It took Sheridan four plays to go over. Stout sliding through center for the touchdown. Try for tying point failed. Cathedra! dropped back on defense end had the ball in midfield at the final gun.
Biggest Intersectional Tilt of Early Season Attracts 70,000
Visit of Golden Bears From West Coast Tribute to Andy Smith. CALIFORNIA FAVORITE . i ‘Reverse Run’ Riegel One of Stars of Team. BY FRANK GETTY in ed Iv: i Spo; is I-.ditar PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 19.—The spirit behind this PennsylvaniaCalifomia game here today was really the spirit of a man who has passed on. But it was one of the most moving spirits in amateur sport, and it brought together two representative football teams, one from the east and another from the far west. Andy Smith once was a great full back at the University of Pennsylvania, later a coach here at Franklin field, and shortly before his untimely death, head coach at California. Probably there never has been a better loved football coach. Out in California, they treasure the memory of Andy Smith, and here at Philadelphia, his name is among those of tradition. Crowd of 70,000 So California, representative eleven of the Pacific coast, and the University of Pennsylvania, always one J of the fighting teams of the east, met here this afternoon on Franklin field before 70,000 spectators. The westerners were strong favorites. It was a game in which California was returning the visits made by Pennsylvania elevens after Andy Smith transferred his affections and duties to the Pacific coast. In 1921, California and Penn met on the former’s gridiron, and three years later, they played out there in the game which was a memorial to Andy. Important Fray California returned the compliment this season, having interrupted the regular curriculum of study to enable the team to make this trip to honor Smith. It was an early season game, but one of the really important inter-sectional contests of the 1929 football program. The Golden Bears were three to one favorites before game t me. Roy Riegels, captain of the California eleven, is the young man who had the misfortune to run the wrong way in the now famous game with Georgia Tech last New Year’s day. That Roy lived down the collegiate disgrace of that mistake and came back to prove himself one of the greatest of modern linesmen speaks worlds for the youngster’s courage. Neither Penn nor California has been particularly effective in the early games of the 1929 football season. The Bears were held to a scoreless tie by St. Marys, and the U. of P. has performed indifferently against weak early season opponents.
Smith Leads I .C. to Win Over Aces Greyhound Star Thrills Home-Coming Crowd With Long Runs. It was home-coming at Indiana i Central Friday night, E.ansville college took the part of football; foes fer the evening, but when the , final score was hung up it read, Os- j car Smith 27, Evansville, 7., The speedy Greyhound ball toter used , his dash charge of pace, cut back and side step to register two of the four touchdowns made by his team, and to make possible the other two. Hardly had some cf the late arrivals of the 2,500 crowd been seated when Smitty grabbed a long Evansville punt, ran to one side of the field and then changed to the other side, running so cleverly that it is doubtful if any of the eleven Evansville players rushing toward him touched him during the seventyyard dash. Evansville Leads Dossett, Evansville star, tried to duplicate Smith’s feature with a sixty-yard dash off tackle, but was stopped twenty yards from goal. Evansville smashed for a touchdown , and Dossett added the extra point with his toe and the “Aces” were in the lead, 7-6. The spectators were given another big thrill, this time when Nowling, racing down the field at top speed caught g pasfrom Ferguson over his head and ran twenty-five yards. The half ended with Central leading, 12-7. Smith S*arts Drives In the second half. Smith had drive to spare and he carried the ! ball for long gains every time he I was called uoon. Early in the third ! period he did some classy cutback running to sprint through the.sec- ! ondary defense and score. He car- ! ried the ball into scoring territory i with another long run and Bales | P nd Cooper assisted him in plugging i the invaders’ line until Cooper ; scored. Smith skirted end for the ! extra point. i The ace seemed the equal of the Central team until Smith broke loose the first tie and then they crumbled. Dossett. Crist and Hollis were the outstanding Ace p’ayers while Ferguson. Vance and Moore aided in the Central work. TESTO OUTPOINTS SILVERS NEW YORK. Oct. 19 —Nick Testo.

Too Many Penalties, Knute Says, as He Pans Officials Some Grid Bosses Becoming ‘Legal-Minded’ and Are Hurting Game by Quibbling Over Nonessentials,.
BY K?, T UTE ROCKNE Tiroes fn?rial Correspondent SOUTH BEND, Ind.. Oct. 19.—One of the outstanding blights in football games so far this fall, from examining statistics, has been the tremendous amount of penalizing by the officials. That this is a bad thing for football no one can deny. The best games of football I have seen were where the officials took little or no part. It has been my observation that some officials are becoming “.egal minded.” I mean by this that these chaps lose their values of common sense right and wrong and get to quibbling over nonessential technicalities.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
a lot of needless penalties. They are much ado about nothing. Other officials are afraid they won’t be noticed if they don’t step up and blow the horn every so often. Then there is the official who, in the game between the Big School and the Little School, is trying to curry favor with the school from the big association by penalizing the Little School as much as he can. That the game can get along very well without this kind of officiating goes without saying. Os course, some teams by their aggressive play have penalties coming to them apparently more often than others. But let’s get back to essentials. Let common sense prevail, and let’s make the officials as inconspicious as it is possible for them to be. The game of football does not belong to the coaches, the officials or the column writers, but to the great mass of boys who are playing the game and the public.

Both teams failed to show any scoring power the remainder of the half. Muncie marched from the point they received the kickoff in the second half to the 15-yard line, but fumbled. An exchange of punts brought a break for Muncie. A bad pass from Tech center sailed over the goal line.

A local jewelry firm has donated a fine gold watch to be presented to the most popular preliminary boxer on next Tuesday night.s legion card at the armory, an applause vote at the conclusion of the show to determine the winner. The following Tuesday night an overcoat' will be given by an Indianapolis clothing concern. It has been decided to confine these popularity contests in the future to the preliminary fighters, it evidently being the idea the main event performers can buy their own accessories.

Hoffman and Tony Win in Easy Style George Floors Ad Warren in Tenth and Canzoneri Outpoints Farr. Bn United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 19.—Addison Warren, a former North Carolina university football star, and George Hoffman, who resigned his title as American amateur heavyweight boxing champion to try his luck at the pro game, today were listed among the many young heavyweights who have eliminated themselves from serious consideration as contenders for the throne vacated by Gene Tunney. Hoffman was entitled to a slightly better ranking than the Carolinian, having scored a tenth-round knockout over Warren in their bout at Madison Square Garden Friday night. However, neither man showed anything which would entitle him to a rating as a first-class fighter. A wicked right to the jaw in the tenth sent Warren flopping, face first, on the canvas. He managed to stagger to his feet at the nine £o'’nt, but was unable to stand and Tell over and partly outside the ropes Referee Crowley waved Hoffman to the corner and awarded him the bout on a technical knockout. Tony Canzoneri, former featherweight chaniDion, scored a clean-cut victory over Johnny Farr, Cleveland veteran, in the second ten-round feature. Canzoneri took nine rounds and Farr one. Tony was unimpressive, despite his victory.
less, Ball broke into the scoring when Smith hurled a pass to Reetkin and he ran twenty yards. Muncie threatened twice more before the half ended, but lacked the punch. After receiving the opening kickoff of the second half, Lyskowinski, sub Central quarter, dashed seventyfive yards, taking the ball to the three-yard line and Bratton plunged over, rancher kicked a placement that hit the pole and bounded inside for the lead point. Ball came back and made three successive first downs with Hodge carrying the oval for long gains and a touchdown. Again the try for point failed. Dean Makes Long Run It was a spectacular play that brought victory to the locals near the end. Dean carried the ball for a 52-yard run and following his great open field dash, hurled a pass that Cushman pulled down from high over his head with one hand as he fell over the goal r'—tton drove over the line for the extra point. Leaky and Derek played well in the Muncie line while Faulkinberry and Crutchfield were powers for Danville.
