Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Oct, 13.—The army has announced that anew football coach will be in command next season. This is the first definite break in th personnel of eastern coaches. At least two others may be expected before the snow flies, one at Fordham, the other at Yale. Up at West Point, a 28-year-old second lieutenant,, Garrison H. Davidson, of New York, replaces Major Ralph Sasse at the end of the current season, at which time the major's four-year detail at the military academy will have expired. Dr. Mai Stevens, the Yale coach, is exnrctrd to enter trip practice ol mfuicme shortly after the season ends. There aio ronllicting reports concerning the. future of Major Frank Cavanaugh at r'ordham. hut the chances are he will not be bade, flue to faihng health Unless Yale nicks up measurably. It may not be hard for Stevens to tear himself away from the bovs in blue but in the rase of Cavanaugh, the Indications are that leave taking will not be so delightful. Rated off the Bucknell gam* Fordham is in for one of Us greatest seasons The 1933 Army coach Is not well knojvn to the football audience, though he was a varsity end for three vears. playing under Captain John MrEwan In 1924. 25 and '26. In short. Lieutenant Davidson was not one of those headline performers. He was just a good, serviceable, intelligent. plaver. The Lieutenant's appointment Is consistent with *he academy's policy of turning the football sound over to graduate olTicers. It is the one football job in the country that only a West Pointer can ever hope to land though in the stone-age davs there were exceptions. Lieutenant *davidson has been active in West Point football continuously since his graduation, coaching the plebe ends, the scrubs and such. In addition, he has been in charge of scouting, specializing on Yale and Notre Dame teams. It was in this capacity that he caught the eye of the football prelates at the Point. A check back over the Yale and Notre Dame scores against the Army in recent years shows that the Cadets were never disgraced. One of the reasons was the thorough manner in which they had been scouted. The lieutenant in physical appearance fulfills the popular conception of the military man. He is prematurely gray . •'I got that way wondering what Rockne was going to try next" . . He is pasy to meet, pleasant of speech and as popular as any man on the post. The athletes will go for him. Some of the news hounds were trying to get a background story about him—how did he get where he is? What was his greatest day on the gridiron 9 What did he think of Goona Goona? And so on. All the lieutenant could remember was that he had scored the first touchdown ever made in Michie, stadium, which is where the Cadets play their home games. That was in 1924 In the dedicatory game with Columbia. Pease of Columbia fumbled and Davidson recovered. "Yes. yes, go on! How far did you run?' It developed (hat the lieutenant fell on the bah at the one-yard line and rolled comfortably over for a touchdown. Neat, but not gaudy—that's the young man's credo. a a u YOU may wonder why the academy seemed to rush matters in naming a coach for 1933. Since Davidson will not take charge until next spring why the early ceremony? I suspect it was a precaution against uninformed criticism in the event of an unsuccessful campaign this year. You see. not many people understand that a football coach at the Point, is subject to orders from the war department, that his detail usually is limited to four vears. Some times it is possible to extend the detail a year or so. In Major Basse’s case, he preferred to continue with his soldiering, without further delay. Very likely with this in mind, the academy decided to make sure that, there would be no misunderstanding on the part of the public why the Major gave up coaching, and this regardless of whether the team won all Its key games or lost them all. They have a wav of looking after their own in the army and. as you can see. even the football coach comes in for very tender considerations. In passing the major need make no aoologv for his record as big time football coach. His 1930 team came mighty close to being the best in the cast. Last year his team lost to Harvard by a point, tied Yale and was nut to rout by Pittsburgh's forward passes. 26-0. Few teems in history have ever made such a gallant comeback as did the Cadets following that Pittsburgh massacre. And so the major advanced. He beat Notre Dame 12-0 and the Navy, 17-7, brilliantly retrieving a season that appeared to be hopelessdlv chaotic.

BUTLER READY FOR JAMES MILLIKIN GRID TUSSLE

Soph Back Star Hurt Bob'Stewart May Not Be in Lineup Against Illinois Team. Butler's Bulldogs were to wind up intensive training today for Saturday’s important tussle with James Millikin U. of Illinois at the Fairview' bowl Saturday at 2 30 p. m. Another star went on the Bulldog hospital list today when it was announced that Bob' Stewart, the brilliant sophomore full back, might be forced to the bench with a jaw injury. An examination today was to determine wnether the former Shortridge star would see action Saturday. Stewart joins Marshall Kealing and Eynotten, scar ends, who have missed practice sessions this week. Charles Sahl, captain and guard, has recovered from hurts and will be in the starting lineup. John (Red) Compton, triplethreat back who starred against Cincinnati U. last week, will be in the starting lineup. Coach Fritz Mackey said today, denying that the half back w'ould not be in action Saturday. Practice sessions today and Wednesday were devoted to building up the Bulldog offense. With his line outweighed, Mackey is developing the high-powered pass attack which proved so successful against Cincinnati last Saturday. Millikin comes here with a fine record. George Musso, 210-pound lineman, is the captain of the visitors, who will be seeking their third victory in as many tussles with the Bulldogs. . Butler has shown improvement in each fray, and with Mackey's system completely installed, should be at tops for the important battle Saturday. SENIOR GOLFERS FLAY Golfers 50 years old or over teed off today at Highland Country Club for the annual senior links title play. More than sixty were in the field for the eighteen-hole play.

Cruising in Sportland By EDDIE ASH

BRIGHT spot in business. George Halas, president of the Chicago Bears pro league football team, has petitioned the league prexy to raise the player limit in the loop from twenty-two men. Eight teams are in the league and Halas’ plan would mean employment for sixteen unemployed former college grid heroes carrying sheepskins as calling cards. A little more ink, please, on that Upline in the business page chart, if Halas wins his appeal. a a a That Hold On To Hoover advertising scream seems to have the smack of that old despairing: college football yell, “Hold ’Em Vale!” in the days when the Old Eli gridders were in a slump and made a practice of finishing on the short end for a weekly trouncing. BULLY for Old Purdue. The Hoosier Boilermakers are stacking up a brilliant no-shutout record on the while lines. The Lafayette eleven has won eight games in a row, the last defeat being by Wisconsin, 21 to 14, at Madison early last fall. The rivals clash again this Saturday at the Purdue homecoming. It is said Purdue has scored at least one touchdown in its last thirty-four games and has been held scoreless only once in the last fortyfour games. The last shutout handed the Boilermakers was by Minnesota in 1928, 15 to 0, when the Gophers were coached by Dr. Spears, the new mentor of the Wisconsin team. a tt a The Hoosier Big Ten Twins, Fnrdue and Indiana, passes pass-snatching ends hard to surpass in the Western conference.

Aroused by the 34 to 0 trimming handed them last week by Wisconsin, lowa’s Hawkeyes will be "fighting mad” when they tangle with Billy Hayes’ Indiana U. eleven in Saturday’s Crimson home-com-ing celebration at Bloomington. Hoosier backers remember 1931, w'hen a supposedly lowa eleven battled the favored Indiana pastimers to a scoreless draw at lowa City. Two veterans of the Hawkeye line who will cause plenty of trouble are Marcus (Hard-Luck) Magnussen, 191-pound center, shown in the upper left, and

the Terre Haute youth, can make that oval soar high and far when he nuts his foot to the leather. He is Coach Kizer’s mainstay punter. Both Moss and Lyons are perlorming up to the measure of all Big Ten talent. tt tt tt THE Minneapolis Millers, A. A. champions, are on the watch to jand Bud Parmelee, the big pitcher who was a sensation with the Columbus Red Birds this year. Bud is owned by the New York Giants and was recalled by Manager Bill Terry. The Millers will sit on the Giants’ doorstep next spring and ask for Parmalee as part payment in the catcher Paul Richards deal if Paul makes good and Bud doesn’t. Other Giants’ backstops are Hogan, Mancuso and Healey. Joe McCarthy has had luck on his side in baseball as well as managerial ability. Fresh from leading the New York Yankees to the world series title in straight sets, with no love games included, over the Chicago team that fired him, Mac is given anew three-year contract, calling for about $10,(100 annually. But speaking of breaks in life, he topped ’em all for horseshoes. Two years ago when the Cubs turned Joe loose he was on the point of signing as manager of the lowly Boston Red Sox when the Yankees cut in and grabbed him. Fact of the matter Joe came so close to hitching up with the tailend Beaneaters that Bob Quinn, Red Sox president, raised a fuss about it and lodged a kick against Yankee interference. Eraw your own picture. McCarthy would have been one of those forgotten men by now with that Bed Sox outfit. tt tt tt IN discussing bench managers and player managers, Sidney Weil, president of the Cincy Reds, says he thinks he will string along with the dugout pilots. The Cubs, Giants and Red Sox turned to player chiefs in 1932 and Fonseca of the White Sox also was labeled as such in a way. Now Washington has turned to a player pilot in joe Cronin, and Fonseca of the White Hose says he will try playing again next season. Anyway, Weil cites Charlie Grimm as an example of the- strain involved when a regular pastimer acts as manager. Weil says: “Grimm admits he lost twenty-two pounds during the late campaign after being promoted to the pilot post on Aug. 2, and his club was winning. Imagine, then, what would have happened to his torso if the Cubs had struck a bad slump and missed out on the pennant.” Well, what usually happens in a case like that is just too bad. The manager becomes a skeleton, loses his appetite, becomes afflicted with insomnia and finally winds up punch drunk.

Sports of Long Ago o o B t> WOMEN’S 6-DAY ‘RACE’ HERE RECALLED BY EARL M’KEE

BY EARL McKEE NOW that the season is at hand for six-day bicycle races in New York and Chicago, it may interest sports fans of the present generation to learn that six-day bike races were held right here in Indianapolis more than thirty-four years ago. The last race was staged at Tomlinson hall in the early part of 1898, during the week from March 21 to 26, and, believe it or not, the contestants were women. There were five entries, as follows: Tillie Anderson of Sweden; Lizzie Claw of Germany, Ida Peters'-n of Sweden, Marie Feiring of France and Bertha Wagner of Germany. a # tt A STEEP saucer track was constructed in the hall, the outer rim rising almost to the level of the balcony rail, There was one and one-half hours of racing each night, and on each succeeding evening the contestants were started off in the positions in which they finished the night before. Each evening there were furious “jams” as one and then another of the fair but husky pedalers attempted to steal a lap. By Saturday night local bike fans had been worked into a frenzy of excitement, and the management took advantage of the intense interest tOsdouble admission prices. tt B tt A HAIR-RAISING finish saw Tillie Anderson nose out Bertha Wagner by inches. The time, for the total of 211 miles covered on the nineteen-lap track, was nine hours and twenty-five minutes. Later in the same year—lß9B writer was stationed near Chattanooga, Tenn., with Indiana troops in the Spanish war, and saw the same troupe stage a six-day race at Chattanooga. The same women riders contested, the same sensational jams were indulged in. and the same gal won by the same number of inches. Even in those days sports promoters were not averse to using ‘ showmanship.” REMEMBER WHEN— When Frank Bird's horse-drawn hos nulled up in front of the Denison hotel atound 1 o’clock of a summer afternoon to take the visiting ball team to the park?

Champs in Ring Wins Canzoneri Stops Petrolle, Rosenbloom Beats Redman. Bu United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 13.—Tony Canzoneri. lightweight titleholder. and Maxie ROsenbiooip, head man of the light heavyweights, won their nontitle bouts in the closing outdoor ; program here Wednesday. Tony stopped Frankie Petrolle, younger brother of Billy the "Farg:o Express." in the third round of their scheduled ten-rounder. It was just a dress Rehearsal for Canzoneri's fifteen-round title bout with Billy at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 4. Rosenbloom slapped and cuffed his way to a ten-round decision over Jack Redman, hard-hitting Negro heavyweight from South Bend, Ind. This bout helped condition the ring's clown pnnee for a title scrap with Mickey Walker next month. Canzoneri raked Petrolle with a rapid crossfire of left jabs and then ! shot over a hard right to the jaw, dropping Frankie for the count after one minute ten seconds of the third round had elapsed. Rosenbloom had little trouble with Redman, who was bewildered by Slapsie Maxie's unorthodox style. Whenever Redman threatened damage, Maxie overwhelmed him with a flurry of blows or tied him up.
