Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK. Nov. 5. IT ha* been pretty generally agreed that In recent years the football fellows on the west coast have dominated the autumnal frenzy, vhat with Stanford, California and outhern California, in turn, plavv merry hob. if that is the phrase ;h all sorts of opposition, and rticularly eastern opposition. There's just a possibility that here may be a different narrative o yodel this year. For example, what was supposed to be a thirdrate eleven, beat what was presented a* the best team on the Pacific slope last Saturday, and when things like that can happen out there, there is no telling what the future will bring, and when. mam Several week* California ram* ea t and b*at Prnnvrlx aria. 1 - to *, ?nd *hrn Mymr of the eastern bov* In thr pr*** bo* turned on thr birh-powered-adJertlve* in rom mrntin* on the westerners’ skill ther were warned by their journalUtlc brethren from way out yonder that they hadn’t aeen anythin* yet. u m m They could understand, of course, how a team like California would impress eastern critics who do not get to see football played as it really should be played, but after all California was just an ordinary, run-of-mine team, as teams are figured out there, and it’s just too bad you fellows can’t get a load of Southern California or Stanford. m m m WELL, things happened since that afternoon over at Franklin field. I should say they have! The great Stanford team was beaten by a presumably greater Southern California team and, in turn, the greater Southern California team has just been beaten by the ordinary run-of-mine California team, which sequence of interesting circumstances makes somebody an Eskimo with & pain in the neck. mam I shoufd like to know what It main Pennsylvania, which Is scarcely rated as one of the treat teams In the eaat. Indeed I believe Pennsylvania has from time to time been referred to as an ordinary, run-of-mine eastern team. Vet Pennsylvania did Just as well against California as Southern California aid, scoring one touchdown while holding the victor* to two, or the equivalent thereof. a a m This might seem that Pennsylvania is better than Stanford, on a par with Southern California, and only a touchdown below California. On the other hand the experts will name you two or three eastern teams that figure well above Pennsylvania. m m m All of which, of course, proves nothing, hut it at lea t provides matter for pleasant meditations and It has been a lon* time since the eaat has been able to squeeze even so much as a skinny, undernourished veatige of pleasure out of these football size-ups which involve the two sea ports. # M m

Is A1 Marsters a better football player than Albie Booth? Is the Dartmouth team, though beaten, better than Yale? The most convenient way to answer the first question is to say that if Marsters is an all-American back so is Booth, and with emphasis, I certainly can’t see how any expert can name one without naming the other. * m a Aj to the second question mv answer would bo in favor of V'.e. For part of the *amr last Saturday the Blue lino out-chariced and out-played the Green line, supposedly one of the treat lines of the east. tt M 8 Ir. most cases you are pretty safe in handing your vote to the team whose line does the better work, and I don’t believe many will dispute that, the Yale forwards had a very definite edge in this one, although as the game wore on they began to give way somewhat under the strain. * a m a I haven't seen better down the field work hr ends all season than the ln S*"* n showed, and lime after time the Dart mouth receiver—not InfrequenUy the great Marstert —was dropped in his tracas. mam TRUE, the breaks went against Dartmouth, but that is the way with breaks; they either come to you or go against you. They are as ‘much a part of the game as the goal posts. It was a bad break that Marsters’ fumble had to fly directly into the arms of a Yale man with a clear field in front of him. mam It was likewise a bad break that young longnerkers ill-starred forward P ss •" the closing minutes of play had to find the outstretched paws of the fastest man on the field. Hoot Ellis, a ten-second man. 4a !onr a fate sponsor* these bizarre tricks the Green of Dartmouth will never y over the Yale bowl. It hasn't once up to now. m m m Incidentally, the statistics of the game were all in favor of Yale and Booth. Yale led in first downs. 12 to 7: in yards gained rushing. 248 to 100, and in length and return of punts. Booth gained 121 yards and lost seven while Marsters was gaining 57 and losing 5. Nor did these totals include a 46-yard run by Booth, which was ruled out because of an off-side violation.

Opening against Inj diana, the Scarlet eleven showed j power, and followed with a victory oyer the strong Danville eleven. ; They were mediocre against James Milllkin and last, but came back the ! following Saturday to down a strong Georgetown team. The game with Northwestern turned into a track meet, the Scarlet losing 66 to 0, and Manchester nosed them out-, 13 to 12, in the last minute of play last week. Although comparative scores give the Bulldogs a decided edge, Coach Clark is taking no chances. The Blue and White eleven lacked drive in their game with De Pauw last Saturday, and Clark forsook his usual Monday rest for the men who took part in Saturday’s game and sent his entire squad through a lengthy drill. Cavosie and Hinchman were injured in the tilt with the Tigers, but are expected to play Saturday, as are several other backs and linemen who sustained bruises in the battle. New offensive formations were to be taught the Bulldogs in their workout this afternoon. Coach Vaughan and several of his varsity players witnessed the De Pauw-Butler contest Saturday and returned to Crawfordsville to map a defense for the Blue and White attack.

THERE’S something extraordinary about the football playing of Albie Booth, Yale’s dynamic "little giant.” He’s the spark plug of the old Eli team, a listless machine when Booth is out of the game, but a ruthless, powerful steam-roller when Booth’s fire touches off the works. Yale is heralded as one of the strongest teams in the east, despite a reverse at the hands of a mediocre Georgia team, and most of the credit is due to the little 145-pound sophomore, who not only does most of the ground gaining, but runs the

( looked upon as the foremost con- ; tender for Fields' title until he lost jto McLarnin. He did not lose decivisely, but he lost nevertheless. Sammy weighed only 137% while McLarnin scaled 143%. This extra weight of McLarnin’s obviously was | the deciding factor the fight. Never before had Mandell met an j opponent who could rush through his left jab, but McLarnin went through it and landed hard lefts and rights. Maybe the reach had something to do with that, McLarnin having approximately three inches advantage. Jimmy began punishing Sammy’s body in the fifth round and he continued that style to win the sixth and seventh. The body punishment obviously hurt Mandell. Mandell jabbed his way around the ring to win the next round, and the crowd, which filled the Chicago stadium, thought he was going on to a victory, but he was too tired to show flashily in the tenth. Mandell started to jab and box, but McLarnin began to slug. He belted Sammy’s body and he smacked his opponent’s jaw until there was no doubt who had won the round and fight. VON PORAT SCORES K. 0.

Huat Downs Schwartz in Title Meet Frenchman Becomes Favorite; Loser to Quit Ring; Other Results. Bui >i ilni Pn > NEW YORK. Nov. s.—Eugene Huat of France today was established as an outstanding favorite to win the world’s flyweight boxing title as a result of his impressive victory Monday night over Corporal Izzy Schwartz of New York, former American champion, in the tenround main bout of the first round flyweight championship elimination tournament at Madison Square Garden.
