Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—And now Miss Thistlewaite how about tearing into some of this mail? Ot course, this Thistlewaite stuff is strictly a Ra I mean there isn’t any such person. She Is what Senator Wild Bill Lvons would call a pizment ol the Imagination. I had hoped that when we moved into the new building every writer would have a personal secretary because it is much easier to write when you have a secretary to Inspire vou. especially a secretary who recognises the eternal bov in you. and is understanding and sympathetic and who mavbe was Miss Asbury Park last summer. But It hasn't worked out that wav vet and I am beginning to fear that I arn not going to get a chance to learn for myself whether those Faith Baldwin stories of office snares are on the sauare or not. Possibily it is all for the best because for all mv granite-like austerity. I am but a child at heart, wide-eyed and trusting, and it probably Is true that I would be as so much putty In the hands of a guileful temptress. Well anyway B B B DEAR Mr. Williams: “As an old Harvard man. I want to utter a mild and polished protest. Concerns something that has developed in Yale football. Some of the younger gridiron experts are writing laudatory pieces about the formation with which Yale men are running kickoffs to touchdowns, Booth against Dartmouth. Parker against Army, etc. "I rote there is a tendency to credit Benny Friedman with the stratagem and I wish to straighten this tangle out before it becomes so utterly hopeless as to gain a place in football history and become accepted as sact —which happens to be the way a lot of history is made, incidentally. "Yale is using a formation for the reception of the kick-off, which is nothing more than the flying wedge. It is so ancient that it is new. like the Princess Eugenie hat and the Seabury disclosures in Tammany. "Back in 1892—0n Nov. 19, to be exact, on that matchless turf at Hampden Park. Springfield, Mass.. Harvard sprang the flying wedße for the first time in history. Yale was the opponent. "Loren F. Deland, a chess master and efficiency expert, who was coach at Cambridge that year developed the stratagem on a chess board. Singularly, Deland never played football himself. He was attracted to the game by its strategic possibilities. "The wedge didn’t win the game for Harvard that day. Yale got the decision because Pop Bliss—l wonder how many of the old timers remember Pop?—ignored a signal and went for a personally inspired touchdown that won bv 6-0. It was something of a moral victory for Harvard at that, for Yale had expected to win. 36-0. "The wedge gave birth to anew succession of mass plavs which became so formidable that the rules had to be changed to save the game in 1906. Now I read in the newspapers that the wedge is something new developed at Yale! But of course it Isn’t, as I have shown. “I even suspect that the current Yale team picked the play up from Georgia. The Georgia coach. Harrv Mehre, has used it in running back the kickoff for some time. Indeed, it was instrumental In winning for Georgia over Yale a year ago. And any old timer will tell you Percy Haughton adapted the wedge to his system years before Mehre played football S. A. H.”

CATHEDRAL RETAINS CITY H. S. GRIDIRON LAURELS
Irish Warriors Trip Manual in Title Tilt North Side Eleven Triumphs After Bitter Battle With South Side Rivals; Tech, Washington and Shortridge Also Turn in Grid Wins. Husky warriors of Cathedral today started their second year rulers of the Indianapolis scholastic footbali dominion. A hard-earned and brilliant 13-to-6 triumph over Manual, city public schools titleholders, gave the Irish their 1931 laurels at Delavan Smith field Friday before a colorful crowd of 7,000 fans which filled all seats and surrounded the entire playing field. Although Joe Dienhart's pastimers, expert exponents of the intricate Notre Dame system, registered twelve first downs against Manual's six, the battle was much closer and anybody’s game until the final gun.
Manual’s scrappy veterans fought against a weight handicap, bu. checked the speedy Irish backs when pushed into touchdown territory. Cathedral opened the scoring in the second period when a brilliant drive by Mueller, Ford and Gaughan carried the ball to the 5-ysrd stripe and Gaughan went over, Sweeney adding the extra point on a sweep around end. Crossen Runs 70 Yards A break gave the Irish their second marker when a bad pass from center delayed Welton’s attempt to kick and it was blocked and recovered in the end zone for an Irish touchdown. Crossen provided the afternoon’s feature with a 70-yard goal sprint for Manuals marker. It was the perfect play, with Faubian, Manual guard, giving Crossen valuable assistance by taking out two of the last three Irish goal defenders. The third tackled Crossen as he crossed the final stripe. Stuart failed on the extra point plunge. Cathedral threatened twice again but an intercepted pass and fifteen yard penalty stopped them. Manual drove down the field as the game neared the finish, with Welton running twenty-five yards as the gun ended play. Cathedral now has a record of eight consecutive triumphs without a defeat or tie. Previous to Friday’s tussle. Manual has turned in six triumphs without a loss. Three Local Victories Local elevens made a clean sweep in the other three Friday battles, Washington trouncing Sheridan, 63 to 0, Tech thumping Logansport's strong eleven, 25 to 12, and Shortridge nosing out Shelbyville, 22 to 18. Washington scored in every period against Sheridan, although Coach Bogue used manv substitutions. Cherry accounted for three purple markers and Eastwood. Baldwin, Hedge. Howard, McTarsney and Burns turned in one each. Numerous long runs by Continental warriors provided the fireworks. Tech’s gallant warriors finally shattered the Jinx which has followed them all seas<m and ripped through Logansport for a 25 to 12 decision. The losers scored twelve first downs to Tech's nine, but brilliant ball carrying by East, who average eighteen yards each attempt, featured the work. Rummell, Logan half, sprinted 66 yards for a touchdown. Sampsell’s 22-yard touchdown dash and a safety, both in the final period gave Shortridge its 22 to 18 win over Shelbvville. Crockett and Dickerman scored other Blue touchdov'ns. Gunning tallied twice for Shelbyville and Raimann went over once.

Notre Dame, De Pauw in Feature State Games Undefeated Irish Tackle Unbeaten Penn Eleven: Tigers Face Ohio U.: Centenary Given Upset Chance Against Purdue and I. U. Hopes for Win. Hoosier gridiron fans today found plenty to whet their football appetites. Notre Dame’s unbeaten performers, as usual, held the spotlight, taking on their sixth consecutive undefeated rival at South Bend. Pennsylvania's rejuvenated warriors moved into South Bend today with an unmarred record, confident of turning back Hunk Anderson's Fighting Irish and erasing the 60 to 20 lacing handed the easterners last year. De Pauw, another unbeaten state eleven, faced its most severe test of the season against Ohio university’s Bobcats, three-times winners of the Buckeye conference crown. In three consecutive campaigns, the invaders have dropped but one decision, a 7 to 6 loss to Indiana U. early this season.
Purdue coaches were pessimistic preceding the Boillermakers’ battle with Centenary at Lafayette, bemoaning the Lafayette’s lack of a touchdown punch. The Gentlemen from the southwest, who have won 81 per cent of their games in the last twelve years, and have been beaten only by Southern Methodist this year, were given a strong chance of providing one of the season’s major upsets. I. U. at Michigan Indiana moved to Ann Arbor to renew a rivalry with Michigan and also had a strong chance of turning in a huge surprise. The Hoosiers have scored but one touchdown in six games with the Wolverines, but that marker was good for their only victory, 6 to 0, in 1928. Two strong Indiana teams, Wabash and Franklin, were due to settle an argument at Crawfordsville today, with the Grizzlies holding a slight edge. Franklin has lost but one decision, to De Pauw last week, this season. The battling Scarlet warriors were on edge to provide another surprise, however. Other State Battles Valparaiso, a strong unbeaten Hoosier eleven, was scheduled to battle Wheaton college at Wheaton, 111., in another promosing tussle. In other games, Rose Poly held the edge over Evansville in a struggle at Terre Haute, Manchester got back into actio nafter a week’s rest against Crane Tech at North Manchester and Earlham’s crippled Quakers went to Bluffton, 0., for battle.
