Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.—1 t must be that the people aren't very bright. I have no right to be looked upon as an expert. I wouldn't want to say I haven’t tried nd tried nobly but it Just doesn’t seem to be in me. No matter how I call ’em—ball games, fights, hoss races—they turn out just the reverse. There wa* a time when I suspected the whole thing was a vast conspiracy Inspired by the Soviets and lhat the class performers waited to read my forecast and then for certain sinister reasons decided to put on the old double cross. But I'm even beginning to weaken on this theory. Here lately I have tried a different svstem and it doesn't work either. Bv wav of keeping my information strictly confidential I have been writing letters to myself, naming the winners of various events, with the admonition, boldly written, not to open until the first edition Is on the street. They say the Soviets are very terrible people and it mav be that they even tamper with the United States mails, and I wouldn’t be surprised, but anyway even with all this secrecy I am unable to guess ’em right. And vet the people still persist In writing to me and asking serious questions, a practice which Is most embarrassing because It makes me feel that I am either hoodwinking the people, of whom I am very fond, or that the people are quite dumb indeed. Scarcely a week goes by, for Instance .that someone doesn’t write in asking me whether In my opinion John L. Sullivan was ever the world heavyweight champion. ' Once in a while there are a few remarks to the general effect that the writer looks upon me land can you blame him?) as the last word In sports and that the crowd over at hook and ladder No. 2 has decided to pay off on my decision. The fact is of course all I know about John L. Sullivan is that he was a large fat guy with handlebar whiskers who lost to Corbett and said, ‘‘l am glad the championship stayed in America.”

EVER so often some baseball fiend will submit a complicated problem to me, such as “with three men on base and two out, the batter hits a long drive over the fence which lands in the front seat of a 15 and 5 taxi cab driven by a man of foreign descent going north in great haste. What is the capital of North Dakota?” Almost invariably a staifiped envelope is inclosed for a reply, a mute challenge to honesty and decency, and In the circumstances some sort of answer is imperative. The other day I wrote a column in which I mentioned something about the Warper svstem and the Rockne svstem. and 1 must have made It sound pretty authentic because I am In receipt of a rather sincere letter begging me to explain wnat the two svstems are. The letter reads: ”1 have read so much of the Warner system and the Rockne system that I would like to know what they are and how they differ. I am sure a great number of your readers would also like to know it.” Let’s take the Warner system first then. For the public this system is typified by the strange arrangement known as the double wing back formation, which Is to say that two backs are aligned with the wingmen. This Innovation is popularly credited to Warner's ingenuity, but the fact Is he picked it up at an obscure winter school while lecturing to a lot of Main Street coaches. Some bird from Oklahoma got up, sprung the Idea, and asked Warner if he thought it would work. The Warner system relies mainly on deceptive duality. The power usually is behind the ball instead of being In front of it. Herein is one of the vital clashes with the Rockne system, which places the power in front of the ball. Warner uses a bewildering variety of stratagems. Including spinners and terrific pressure on the ends. This pressure on the flanks is, of course, a football fundamental. It is conspicuous in the Rockne system as It Is in all “systems.” The Warner system needs a lot of man Dower. At Stanford, he has this in abundance. I have heard opponents of the Warner system argue that the double wing back is extravagant in that it clearly wastes a man, and that given two teams of equal strength the Warner system will be beaten. And vet the records speak for themselves. The old man has turned out some of the greatest teams in the country. Whether it is man power or Warner magic is a question—it is always a question in these things.

Sekyra Surprises Loughran But Loses Close Decision

BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 23.—Joe Sekyra, Dayton’s Bold Bohemian, clearly is not the master of Tommy Loughran—and for that matter, it is doubtful if any other boxer can defeat the Philadelphia boxing master over a 10-round route—but it will be some time before another fighter accepts the veteran Ohioan as a “set-up” opponent. Sekyra removed all doubt as to his fighting ability Tuesday night when he held Loughran to a close decision in the Daily Mirror’s charity show, which netted $27,000 for the hospital radio fund. The Ohioan, a 3 to 1 underdog in the betting, despite his recent victory over Charley Retzlaff, made a surprisingly strong showing and went into the final round of the bout on even terms with the Philadelphian, who is accepted generally as the most worthy challenger for Max Schmeling’s world heavyweight title.

Tribe Now Faces Task to Hold Third Place Double Loss to Hens Tuesday Puts Indians in Tough Spot as Birds Gain Ground; Single Tilts Today and Thursday at Stadium. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor That double defeat handed the Indians by the Toledo Hens at Perry stadium Tuesday just about knocked the home nine out of the running for second place in the A. A., and now it Is evident the men of McCann vill have to do some hard fighting to retain third place. The Columbus Red Birds, coming fast recently, have crept within two games of the Hoosiers and evidently are going to be hard to stop when the open a four-game series here Saturday. The Birds bowled over the Colonels twice

n Louisville Tuesday. The Indians have two more tilts with Toledo, one today and the other Thursday, and on Friday the Tribesmen will take on the Cincy Reds in an exhibition here. Dan Howley, manager of the Reds, plans to use his regulars against the Tribe, according to advices from Cincinnati, which means that stadium customers will get a chance to see in action the marvelous fielding shortstop, Leo Durocher. Many big league experts rate Durocher the best in the game from a fielding standpoint. In the double-header here Tuesday the Hens turned on the Tribe and annexed the first fray, 8 to 4, and followed up the spurt by grabbing the second battle, 5 to 2, six innings, darkness. Arch Campbell and John Paul Jones, Tribe starting hurlers, failed to show a thing in the way of puzzlers. The best pitching on the part of the home club was achieved by young Leslie Barnhart, recently recalled from Reading of the International League. He relieved Campbell in the fourth stanza of the opening conflict, checked a big rally and went on to hold the Hens to five hits and one run in the last six rounds, compiling three strikeouts and issuing no walks. Campbell was rapped for eight blows and seven markers during the short time he occupied the mound Ellam Van Gilder, veteran right-hander, went the distance for Toledo. He issued six walks, but also fanned seven of the Hoosiers, breezing Sigafoos in the ninth with the sacks loaded. The big fellow showed unusual form in working out of holes all through the contest. Ray Fitzgerald batted in all of the runs for the Tribe, two with a single, one with a triple and the other with a long fly. Lowell was the only other Indian to get more than one bingle. John Paul Jones, tall rookie from Oklahoma City, drew the Tribe box assignment in the nightcap and was sent to the showers in the third canto, being touched for six hits and four runs before Horne took up the toil. Eissler operated on the Toledo mound and held the Indians to six hits, duplicating Van Gilder’s feat of escaping out of difficult spots. Lefty walked six men, but only one of the free tickets developed into a run. Len Koenecke was given a rest in the second game Tuesday and it was the first time he was out of the lineup since the early part of the season. The big fellow is in a slight slump at that, going two games without a hit. The fielding feature was a one-handed catch by Curt Walker in the second game.
