By Eddie Ash EAST PLAYS UP TO PRINCETON m m m MIDWEST STRENGTH OVERLOOKED
COME of the football sent out of the East look rather dizzy and jrive Midwest grid fans a pain in the Several of the Atlantic Seaboard “experts” placed the Princeton Timers first among the country’s best elevens •—the undefeated Tigers, by gum! Oh, yes, they trounced Navy, 26-0, and Pennsy, too, 7-6, but the Princeton schedule as a whole doesn't compare with the hard campaigns certain teams in this section battle through. Notre Dame took care of Navy, 14-0, and observers say it would have been a cinch for the Irish to have piled up more points, but were satisfied with two touchdowns owing to the fact they had to meet Ohio State next. Notre Dame, Minnesota, Ohio State and perhaps a half dozen other Midwest, Southern and Southwest teams look good enough to deserve a rating above the Tigers. • Princeton ha.s a good team and a winning team, but let's take a look at its schedule: Pennsy, Williams, Rutgers, Cornell, Navy, Harvard, Lehigh, Dartmouth. That stacks up as a soft touch compared with Notre Dames program as well as the schedules of Big Ten and other elevens in this part, of the country. Pennsy, nosed out by Princeton, 7-6, was defeated by Michigan, 16-6, and Michigan lost to Michigan State, 25-6. Comparative scores don't always tell the story in football, but comparative schedules usually do over the long run. a a a a a a The Butler athletics department has a problem on its hand this week —that of trying to "work up a worry'' over the Franklin game. Bulldogs fear Grizzlies—ha! a a a a a a MAN MOUNTAIN DEAN, the bearded rassler, was interviewed on the air the other night and was asked how long he had known Chief Little Wolf, the Indian grappicr. I knew him before he had a blanket to sleep in,” replied Dean. The Man Mountain also was asked if he ever had appeared in the movies, and the answer was: "Yes, I doubled for Charles Laughton—with the bases full.” a a a a a a THE powerful Southern Methodists eleven left Dallas today for California to battle U. C. A. L. on Monday in an Armistice Day attraction. The Mustangs are gunning for a Rase Bowl bid and have won seven consecutive games without a defeat. And they have five more to play! That's a long time for students to ie kept going on the gridiron. We don't understand how the cheer leader*: last that long. a a a a a a NO New York Yankee pitcher won more than 16 games this year, which means that Manager Joe McCarthy will have to do some fancy buying or trading to bolster his staff if the club is going to get any place next season. The Yankees of the Ruth and Gehrig days are no more. The two big fellows, working hand in hand producing extra base hits and runs, made the New York pitchers look better than they really rated. a a a a a a YOUTH must be served, but in billiards it's different. Willie Hoppe, at 48. has been playing the game 40 years and he’s still in there competing in the world three-cushion tourney at Chicago. Another •youngster” chalking up for top honors is Tiff Denton, just a cool 53. The traditional green cloth has given way to purple in this year’s title event, and a yellow object ball has replaced the red. a a a a a a WILLARD BROWN, the popular local welterweight boxer who recently completed a tour of Australia, is due in Indianapolis and has sent notice to local fight promotors that he is "ready to go.” Brown had exceptionally good luck in Australia where he proved a strong drawing card. One of his fights attracted around 10.000 fans. Willard made a brief two-day stop here a couple of weeks ago, then headed for Texas where he visited friends until lie /as ready to resume artive training. The Indianapolis fighter arrived in Australia last December and it is said that iie managed to "pocket” most of his earnings. He has stepped up his weight from 140 to 146 pounds. Willard asserts that he is eager to make a concentrated drive toward the welterweight championship and that he is ready and anxious to fight any one chosen by local ring matchmakers. Brown lias beaten a score of good glove tossers within the last two seasons, outstanding among them being Harry Dublinsky and Eddie (Kid) Wolfe, both of whom hold victories over another Indianapolis mauler, Tracy Cox.
