Green Wave, L. S. U. Meet for Co-Title Tie With Alabama for Loop Crown and ‘Sugar Bowl’ Chance at Stake. BY GLENN ADCOX rutted Pre Staff Correspondent BATON ROUGE, La., Dc. I.—Two powerful football teams, Louisiana State and Tulane, met today in s traditional game that has assumed important aspects this year because of the many issues which hang upon the final score. Both teams are undefeated in the Southeastern Conference along with Alabama, and both are anxious to share in the title. But more important to both was a possible invitation to represent the south in tlfe first “sugar bowl” (lassie against a northern team, at New Orleans New Year s day. The sugar bow! game represents New Orleans bid for the national football spotlight. The game also assumed impotance so Huey P. Long, who adopted Louisiana State over his alma mater. Huey graduated from Tulane's law school, but has always been an ardent supporter and benefactor of L. S. U. He will be found leading the L. S. U. cheering section. Huey Long's Rival Present Across the field Mayor T. Semmes Walmsley, who captained Tulane's 1911 gridiron team, and since has become Long's most bitter political enemy, will cheer on the Green wave. Beaten only by Colgate’s tricky •'Red Raiders” this season, Tulane has rolled up 182 points against fifty-seven for nine opponents. Louisiana State, unbeaten, but tied by two outhwest conference leaders, Rice and Southern Methodist, has allowed opponents only thirtytwo points, while scoring 133. L. S. U. boasts one of the finest passing attacks in the country, while Tulane's running game ranks well under any comparison. Betting odds, which at first favored Louisiana State by as much as 2 to 1, have been forced down to 6 to 5 and even by an influx of Tulane money. Stellar Men in Lineup The line-ups scintillate with stars. L. S. U. has Abe Mickal. •passer and punter extraordinary, who coach "Biff" Jones has termed a “greater back than Red Cagle.” Pitted against him will be Tulane's “Little Monk” Simons, 195 pounds of dynamic humanity who leads the Southeastern Conference in scoring, and, with Mickal. was picked on the “All-Southeastern” football team. • These two stars will be supported by able casts. Tulane offers Homer Robinson. all-America center candidate, and a sixty-minute lineman, against L. S. U.'s Justin Rukas, powerful bone-crushing tarkle. 7i *th i were named on the “all-Southeast-ern” football team. The color and drama expected to be packed into the contest will attract the largest crowd in southern football history. L. S. U. officials early in the week announced 30.000 ticket sales. Between 35000 and 40.000 were expected to crowd into the stands before game time.

Records Tumble in Spree by Washington Pin Loop League Floor Average and Game Marks Soar; Ahearn Tops Eleven ‘soo’ Shooters, With 681.
BY BERNARD HARMON The Washington League, one of the city’s fastest leagues during the last few years, seems to have recuperated after a slow early season start. Last night this loop, rolling at the Illinois alleys, furnished the city's leading individual series as well as the runner-up total. Eleven members passed the 600 mark, with a 681 by Leo Thearn as top score. The BerghofT Beers, who had three consecutive 3.000s chalked up in their favor, brought their string up to four last night when they pounded out games of 1,106. 991 and 971 to total 3.068, which is anew three-game record for the season in the Washington League. Their 1.106 game was also a season's record. In this series, Aheam connected for his top total on games of 242, 206 and 233, Dan Abbott collected a 624, and Walt Heckman slammed out a 608. It was Abbott’s twentieth honor count of the season, while Heckman’s 600 was his seventh straight in league competition. With such fancy maneuvering by the Beer team, the opposing Wheeler Lunch team didn’t have a chance and dropped all thre games. Heather's 582 was the best total garnered by the Lunch squad. Rudy Boesnecker, with his runncrup total of 677, paced the Underwood Transfers in their double win over the King’s Indiana Billiards. This series proved to be the most thrilling of the session, the first game winding up even when each team pounded out a 1.017 game. In the roll-off the Transfer team bested King's and took the one-game edge for the series. John Blue gave Boesnecker some help with a 605 series, while Harry Wheeler, with 651, and Lorenz Weissman, with 610. kept the lqsers in the midst of the battle. Capitol Ice, with Gene Rufli at 614, took a trio of wins from the Schmitt Insurance. To Brown continued his "600 ways,” with a 551 for the Quaker Oils and. though he was ably assisted by a 599 from Bill Burnett, the Oil squad dropped three games to the Coca Cola. Cross carried the Hoosier Opticals to a triple win over the Indianapolis Paint & Color team, with a 621 series. Leonard Coal Company grabbed a pair from the Wooden Shoe Beers. Rutch McAllen. firing a 633 for the winners, topped all individuals in this series. The floor average of the league last night was 911, the best of the season for the Washington League.
A Dog’s Life By Leon F. Whitney
THERE have been many prophesies lately about a general up grade in the economic phase of civilization, but we haven't heard jnuch about the question of dogs. I don't know whether you realize it or not. but the dog kennels the country over have been more or less depressed like
every thing else. Now, I believe that depression is due for a change, and we shall see better times ahead in the dog business. One thing the depression has done for us is to increase the relative proDortton of purebred dogs. There are many move dogs being regis-
F .♦ ‘ -Es
tered in the American Kennel Club | than ever before, and the great dog shows are being better attended and and an increase in the number of entries is being recorded. This might seem to contradict my first statement that the dog business has been on the down grade. But nevertheless it is a fact. The difference is that people are more choosey about the dogs they do keep. Just take a trip around and talk with the dog owners and see what they tell you. Os course there will be exceptional breeders who will tell you they have sold more dogs than ever before. Leave the exceptions out of the picture and consider the great number of kennels. For example, the hunting dog kennels. They have reduced their prices pitiably. They have reduced the number of dogs they keep, and have been very careful about buying dogs ahead. In that way they resemble the merchants of the country. Recently I talked to a man who is probably the largest shipper ot high class hounds in New England, and he told me that this year he has not sold more than one-third the number of dogs that he has sold other years, yet he has advertised more. It's the same story everyI where. That’s a good sign. We may see a sudden demand and : I believe that it soon will be profitable to raise puppies and that they will sell better than ever before. Back to nature. Tomorrow I am going to tell you some of the things I like and hope to see more general. Do you m • ocx problem? Addrew . eommuiuctuons to Leon F.
