Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Nov. 16. TVSRGEITIN G loot ball lor the J/ moment—lt can be done if you are willing to submit to a struggle—the sport news of the day Is: L Landis seeks to unscramble Brooklyn mess. 2. Yanks release old Cy Moore. 3. Giant's stockholders sue Charles Otoneham. a a m Landis or someone certainly should do something about Brooklyn. The situation is getting no better with great haste. Half of the club Is owned by the Ebbets estate. The other half is owned by Steve McKcever. The two controlling interests are openly hostile. What one proposes the other opposes. As business men they function with aophomorlc comicality. a m a AT present Wilbur Robinson is the bone of dissension. Though it is quite possible Robinson, plump and proud of it, might object to being referred to as a bone of any sort. Tire Ebbets people want him to remain as manager and president of the club. McKeever says this can be done only over his dead, clammy body. tt u a Robinffon'f contract expires Jan. 1. “At which time.** promises McKeevcr, with characteristic Miavltr and diplomacy, “I will take his desk and throw' *t out into the ■tree!.'* And meanwhile a club repreaenting a city which if separated from New York proper would be third ranking In slse In the country, drifts along haphatardly and seemingly without purpose or point, headed for nowhere and a safe wager to get there. MUM THE release of Wilcey Moore by the Yanks does not come as a surprise. He w'as of little value last season and not of great value the season before. His was the usual fate of the sinker ball specialist. This type of pitcher does not last long. The sinker ball ceases to mystify after you have swung against It a few times. Its behavior usually can be anticipated. For the brief space of one season Moore was a truly remarkable pitcher, but after that he was just another farm hand in flannels with the New York insignia stenciled across his wishbone. U U tt The first year Moore reported one of Miller Huggi ns* observant lieutenants criticised his pitching delivery. “You don’t bring your arm hack far enough on the wind up." this gentleman scolded. “You’ll never get bv in the big leagues pitching that way. llcre, do it this way.** nun Moore watched the demonstration in silence and then apologetically informed the learned man that he couldn't bring his arm back any farther because it had been broken years before and the bones had not knitted properly. By July of that same year Moore had won fourteen games and was the pitching sensation of the league, and he had not changed his wind-up. nun THe suit against Owner Stoneham of the Giants demanding an accounting may or may not lead to interesting developments. It is no secret that complete harmony does not reign among members cf the official family of the club. Sooner or later such conditions in an organization inevitably produce a rousing detonation. a a a Mr. William F. Kenny of trans-Atlant.c bartering note, instigated the current lesai action. He bought Into the club about a year ago and his intentions and ambitions hare been the subject of furious speculation in baseball ever since. a a a Kenny has plenty of those millions, is a dominant character and up to now has been content with the role of a minority stockholder in anything. There is mounting evidence that he wants to get hold of the Giants. On the other hand, there is no evidence that Stoneham wants to let them go. Perhaps Judge Landis should look into this also, or maybe it's a job for the Carnegie Foundation. a a a IN this connection Tim Mara, the bookkeeper, broker and football magnate, has been mentioned for the presidency of the Giants in the event Kenny is able to buy control. This appears to be news to Mara, and not particularly good news, at that. "I wouldn’t have a ball club if they gave me one,” said Mara today. Can it be that he has confused the Giants with the Red Sox?

Tracy Cox
TOPPING the five-bout fistic program at Tomlinson hall Monday will be Tracy Cox, Brightwood featherweight, exchanging punches with Billy Shaw, elusive Detroit scrapper, ,who turned in two good bouts here on previous appearance against Eud Taylor and Cecil Payne, nationally-known glove lads. Cox has gone a long way in the profession, with .numerous victories in the past two years, and right now is rated Indianapolis’ most promising pugilist. Tracy and Shaw will mix over the ten-round route and preceding their battle will be three eightrounders and a six, with a galaxy of punchers performing. Matchmaker Arol Atherton believes the program will deliver all the way. Cox has improved gradually and has learned much about getting full value out of his knockout punch with which he flattened Eddie O’Dowd at Ft. Harrison last summer. First bout Monday will start at 8:30 p. m.
Maxey Clowns Way to Victory Over Braddock By United Press NEW YORK, Nov. 16.—Maxey Rosenbloom, eccentric New Yorker, was in sight of the light heavyweight championship today. He decisively defeated James J. Braddock of Jersey City Friday night in a ten-round bout in Madison Square Garden, winning every round except the first, which was even. Rosenbloom defeated Braddock almost as easily as did Tommy Loughran at Yankee stadium last July before the latter gave up his title to enter the heavyweight division. Braddock was never able to lay a hard punch on the clowning Rosenbloom. Young Zazzarino, Marion, N. J., and Dominick Petrone, New York, fought a ten-round draw. Don Volante, Liverpool, England, was knocked down twice, but earned a draw with Harry Carlton, Jersey City, in ten rounds. WATTS WINS BY K. O. Bu United Press PROVIDENCE, R. I„ Nov. 16.

Earlham vs. Louisville at Louisville. Ky. Franklin vs. Central Normal at Franklin- . . ... Indiana Central vs. Manchester at North Manchester. Valparaiso vs. Elmhurst at Valparaiso. Twelve Indiana college elevens went into action today against formidable foes, with promise of ideal weather and large crowds. Two Hoosier teams shared the national spotlight. A determined lowa team, which spilled Minnesota's chances for the Big Ten title and cut the list of undefeated conference elevens to one, Purdue, were to meet the Boilermakers before 25,000 fans that packed and jammed Ross-Ade bowl. Two back fields which loom formidably for all-Concerence and all-American consideration were to clash. Glasgow and Pape, th? Hawkeye stars, were to match speed with Welch, Harmeson, Yunevich and White, the Boilermaker quartet which has been compared favorably with the famous “Four Hoursemen’’ of Notre Dame. lowa’s line is regarded as one of the strongest in the Conference, while the Purdue forwards had not been fully extended in previous games. National honors were at stake when Notre Dame met Southern California's husky Trojans at Soldiers field. Chicago. A record crowd of 115,000 to 120,000 was expected. Notre Dame, undefeated and supposedly unextended this season, expected to win by matching its reserve strength against the Tfojan driving ability, a driving ability which was good enough to beat every opponent except California. At Butler bowl, the Bulldogs, strengthened by the return of several veterans who were ineligible for state contests, were to engage the Little Nineteen champs, James Millikin, undefeated in sixteen games until last Saturday. The contest was to be played despite injuries to four varsity men and one reserve player received in a train crash while the Illinois eleven was en route here from Decatur, HI., Friday. Indiana, strengthened by a twoweeks’ rest, met a vastly-improved purple eleven at Northwestern. The Hoosier “jink” was expected to be broken today, with Russ Bergherm, the husky Wildcat plunger, battering the crimson line for the victory margin. Indiana holds two upsets over the Hanley eleven in the last two years. Page had drilled anew combination, including many sophomores, and was expected to start his revamped lineup. It was homecoming for Northwestern. De Pauw was a heavy pre-game favorite over Ball Teachers of Muncle at Greencastle today. Earlham met the powerful University of Louisville eleven on the Kentuckians’ home grid. Franklin and Danville Normal were expected to furnish a real - scrap at Franklin, and Indiana Central and Manchester renewed their rivalry at North Manchester. Valpo tackled Elmhurst at Valpariaso in the other state game of the day.

Whether or not / ‘bie Booth, the spark plug of the Yale football team, would appear in the Eli line-up against the Princeton Tigers was a vital question as throngs arrived in New Haven for this afternoon’s important game. The question assumed the proportions of a major mystery in view of conflicting statements from Mai Stevens, Yale's head coach; Paul Barnett, the university’s publicity director, and Albie himself. Booth went to the infirmary Friday with a Charley horse and Barnett announced Albie would not play against Princeton. “Sure I’m going to play,” said Albie from the infirmary. “I’m not supposed to talk about it, but I’m o. k.” Informed of this development, Stevens added a “probably” to his earlier announcement that Booth would not appear at the game.

ways brings out the best in both squads. While tlje Pagemen got away to a poor start this season, the Crimson is recognized as having plenty the latent power that will come to life against Purdue if it is brought out at all this season. Indiana can be depended upon to be keyed to the highest pitch for the battle, especially in view of the fact that Page’s eleven has not been able to chalk up a victory over the Boilermakers since 1923.

Bv T’nitcd Pms EVANSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 16Tech of Indianapolis continued in a tie for the leadership of the Indiana High School Big Ten conference by playing a scoreless tie game with Central high of Evansville here Friday night. Clinton, the other team tied with Tech for the conference lead, played Linton today. As neither Tech nor Clinton has another conference game the result today- determines if the two teams will share the championship. Tie games seem to be a habit with Central and Tech. Three years ago they tied 12-12. Last year the score was 6-6 and the deadlock finish Friday night gave them an even break until another year. Tech had several chances to score Friday night, being inside the Central 10-yard line several times. Central missed one beautiful opportunity to score when Flach carried the ball to the 1-foot line on the fourth down. Feitman smeared Tech plays through his tackle while Flach was a hard ball toter for Tech to stop. Lowman punted in great style for Tech, and Lowery, Lutz and Smith at times smashed the Central line until they came within scoring distance. Fumbles and penalties hurt their chances.
