By KddieAsli Rose Bowl Visitors Short of Reserves mi 9 a Stanford Fairly Sure of Happy New Year

F OU LITTLE, grid coach, still is being congratulated in New York for his success in grabbing off the football invitation to the Rose Bowl, an invitation proffered by Stanford, the California school that side-tracked Nebraska and several other tough elevens to “Hail, Columbia!” Every effort is being made in Gotham to paint the Columbia warriors as the Roaring Lions and that 20-to-0 defeat at the hands of Princeton is being explained “off the records.” Asa matter of fact, if the Columbia ballyhoo is not checked shortly, even the Tigers will be led to believe they were the victims rather than the victors in the game of Oct. 21. Evidently Stanford aimed to make sure of starting the New’ Year right. Columbia has only one good team. The Lions are short of reserves and were short at the outset of the 1933 season. The university has a tremendous enrollment, but the student body as a whole is not football-minded and few men turn out for the grid sport. Under the circumstances Coach Lou Little is certain to face a problem in Stanford. Experience has proved that one good team is not enough in the hot weather that prevails in Pasadena around New Year’s. The Lions will be exhausted after a couple of periods and the contest doubtless will be a shoo-in for Stanford. tt o tt O tt tt LITTLE is a high-class football coach. Give him Stanford material and he could produce just as good a team as Tiny Thornhill has at Stanford. But he hasn’t got that kind of material. Little has given the Lions a deceptive attack, with many double and triple passes. The ball, after being passed from center, disappears, then bobs up in some unexpected place after a couple of lateral passes. Little is an outstanding defensive coach, too. He can take second-rate material and build a good line out of it. At Georgetown university he had a lot of little men in the line, but they were so well schooled that Georgetown's foes found them hard to push out of the way. For a short time Stanford may find ClifT Montgomery and other Columbia backs elusive. But after the lads begin to tire. Little will have nobody to send in. a a a a a a SPORTING NEWS relates an incident of several years ago that was the knottiest problem ever put before Umpire Billy Evans, who is now the general manager of the Cleveland Indians. The problem stumped Eva vs and other umpires who had drawn yp a petition protesting the low pa j for umpires in the world series. The umpires held a secret meeting and then were amazed the next day when they saw news of their move printed in the newspapers. Billy Evans was delegated to write the petition. He had been a sports editor and was qualified to turn on the power in convincing fashion. He visited the hotel stenographer and hired the use of her typewriter. He paid her well and told her to go out and walk around the block while he did his chores. Bill made a carbon copy of the umpires’ complaint, in order that he would have something to show his associates. He reached in a lower drawer of the desk and pulled out anew sh<’et of carbon. Later that evening, Tiny Maxwell, then sports editor of the Evening Public Ledger of Philadelphia, discovered he had no carbons. His paper syndicated his stuff and he had to make copies. He requested the loan of a sheet from the hotel stenographer. Or. the way upstairs, Tiny noticed the carbon had been used only once. The writing was as plain as day. Tiny copied it carefully and informed all and sundry that the umpires had demanded more money. The umpires began to suspect each other for the “leak,’’ especially Billy Evans. To re-establish peace in the umpirical family, Maxwell finally confessed the source of his information, but the distress of the arbiters was keen until he explained. World's series wages were raised, eventually. a a a a a a Baseball scribes in the majors are wondering if Chuck Klein will hit up to his past high slugging marks now that he has been sold to the Chicago Cubs, a club that usually is a pennant contender. Most writers think the husky Hoosier of Indianapolis will deliver regardless of the fact he will be under pressure. Chuck has never played with a I championship team. He joined the Phillies when he graduated from I Ft. Wayne and remained with the weak Quakertown brigade until the ; Eruins bought him recently. A batter with the Phillies seldom is wor- j ried. They just go up their and hit. It is their slogan, for the Phils 1 usually are sunk in the mire. For that reason some scriveners think j Klein will have to make good ail over again'at Chicago. a a a a a a ' I ''HERE is a vast difference in the pressure on a batter with a losing I A team and the batter on a winner. Sluggers on trailing clubs don’t always produce when they change to a front runner. Babe Herman, Earl Webb and Roy Johnson displayed marked ability to blast the ball ; all over the lot when they were unworried performers with also-rans. Their batting eyes dimmed, however, when they served with teams that! were in the thick of the flag fight. Klein has in his favor the fact he is I young, strong and is always in fine physical condition. Moreover, Chuck j holds keen confidence in his power and skill, and fears no foe.

Chuck Klein Is Tops Over All as Slugger

Many Start in Tourney Miami-Biltmore Meet Is Under Way With 183 Entrants. By United Pres* CORAL GABLES. Fla.. Dec. B. The largest field ever entered in a southern tournament teed off today in the SIO,OOO Miami-Biltmore open championship, richest event on winter’s golden golf trail. First money is $2,500. Heading the field of 173 amateur and professionals, Ed Brook of Bartow, Fla., Johnny Mears of New York, and Ole B. Clark of Springfield, Mo., were the first to start walloping away in the 72-hole competition that 'will end Sunday. Other threesomes followed every seven minutes, and it was thought probably that late starters might be unable to reach the home green before darkness descended. Denny Shute of Philadelphia, who holds the Biltmore title and the British open championship, faced formidable opposition, foremost being Johnny Goodman of Omaha, national open champion; Gene Sarazen of New York, P. G. A. champion, and Joe Kirkwood, Canadian open champion. Other stellar entrants were Paul Runyan of White Plains, N. Y.; Ed Dudley of Wilmington, Del.; Horton Smith of Chicago, and A1 Houghton of Washington, D. C. The latter is regarded as the tourney’s dark horse. The low amateur will receive the Henry L.

The Red Riders have not been defeated or tied this season. Alex Yunevich will lead th° Purdue team, which is expected to include Par- ! donner, Peele, Keegan, Ungers, I Peters, Westerman and Duggins.

1 He won this distinction in addition to his recently announced bat- ! ting and home run championships. ! The outfielder's slugging percentage ■ for 1933 was .602. This was not as ■ good as his .645 of 1932. but it was j considerably better than that of his 1 closest rival, Wally Berger of the J Braves, who wound up with .566. 1 Klein also batted in the most runs, 120. Ott Draws 75 Walks Little Mel Ott of the world champion New York Giants drew the most bases on balls, seventy-five* leading for the second year. Although Berger ranked second in slugging, he also struck out the most times, seventy-seven. Os those who participated In 100 or more games, Johnny Frederick of the Dodgers struck qut fewest times, fourteen. The pitchers apparently enjoyed dusting off George Watkins of the Cardinals. He was walloped twelve times with the pellet, more than any other player. Ernie Lombardi of the Reds won the questionable distinction of hitting into the most double plays, twenty-six. In club slugging. Pittsburgh replaced Philadelphia as champion, with a percentage of .383. St. Louis batted in the most runs, 629, and struck out most times, 528. Brooklyn received the most bases on balls, 1397, and Cincinnati had the most batsmen hit by pitchers, thirty-four. Giants Best Road Club A team that can win on the road is usually regarded as of championship caliber. The Giants were no exception to that rule. They won more road games than any other National club, forty-three, and lost thirty-four.
