Agrees It's Smart to Forget Old Ideals in Grid Sport.
BY JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Writer .
YORK, Oct. 89.—~Commerclalism has reared its ugly A in Eastern football so often in pent years that the gentleman in a finally decided to embrace @ foul monster for better or worse. As you may have heard the dear i Yales sold out to an oil company and now all their games are broadcast on what is known to the radio trade as a commercial program. Rudy Vallee may have been the inspiration. He is an old Yale himself. He made the all-time all- %& America saXxo- “ phone team at New Haven a dozen years back. Another memof the Eastern football aristo- ¥ — Columbia — decide to go mmercial this year, too, moving

the home field to Yankee Staum. The Columbias play Army one of the major games of the y there tomorrow. * There can be no mistaking why e shift in playing fields was made. she Columbias’ home stands won't tf more than 30,000 at tops, reas it is possible to jam 75,000 the immense stadium stands. e Columbias evidently figured ey were losing considerable trade clinging to the ivy-wall tradition, they compromised with principle ey moved out. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler is the gident of Columbia University. d I have a distinct memory: of the doctor issuing a tremendous iphlet on the poetic qualities of for sport's sake. I think it 8 in his annual report to the tees, but anyway, he suggested a tball program that would elimite gate receipts altogether. He ged the alumni to foot the exses of coaching and equipping football team and do away with ssions. o ” 2 R. BUTLER is still the president of the university and, to peat, tomorrow the football team presenting his university moves m the campus field into the huge dium and for the very manifest of adding to the till. This uld seem to indicate. that the dent of a university has very e to say about the conduct of football team. And there is bly a great deal of truth in ..G. After all, the president is hly a hired man who is in the end ‘Mainly responsible to the alumni. fAt the same fime I think even . Butler will admit on reflection hat this suggestion was more speccular than sound, It could never ve been put in effect: Visiting ptball teams do not ‘wish: to be pid off in idealism. As a matter fact the Columbias have prosed to much more idealism’ than g ever owned, and I am inclined be pleased that they have finally en down their hair.. 3 8h» HERE has been about ‘the i. Columbians a&n air of periority that was not only unicoming but unwarranted. Every-| pdy knows that certain concessions e made to football prospects and’ at when a great: coach, such as . Lou Little, is employed that it turally follows he will make every fort to build up a formidable m. So why try to pussyfoot bout it? Personally I think Yale did a wise g in selling the rights to broadt its games. They have something sell. Why should they give it ¥? ‘I have the same thought put the Columbians. Why play Army-Columbia game in a finger 71? If such’ a game is to ‘be yed it should be played where gp greatest number of people can gp it. This is fine for ‘the people d I can't see where it can passibly the Columbias.
» ® '‘® PUT the scale of prices is some$2 thing else, and I am afraid the lumbias will be charged with
ture in the commercial field. they are charging the same prices e customers are asked to pay to an Army-Notre Dame game, happens to be the big New spectacle of the year. And no ter how emotionally the Colummay feel about this game, it not in the public esteem an Armyep Dame game.

that fact.
In sizing up the Fordham-S. M. U. tilt, it appears to me that the Mustangs are below their 1935 par, while Fordham is rated tops in the East. Jimmy Crowley's fine defense, plus a clever offense directed by Andy Palau, will be a little too much for S.M. U.
Stern Early Test
As for our own tangle with the Buckeyes, football authorities who know the Columbus situation have told me that Ohio State has the best team in the country this fall. Coach Schmidt has a squad that is actually three and four deep in
such a stern early test. This is an experimental game for us. It will whether we can increase the speed of our preparations without leaving any bad effects. I have no hesitancy in predicting a hard-fought game. There are few crucial games in the Midwest. Purdue and Wisconsin - meet, and the Boilermakers should win. Despite that tragedy, Noble Kizer has a real team at Lafayette, and Wisconsin is just getting started. Indiana meets a test in Michigan. Right now the Hoosiers appear the choice. Notre Dame will have little trouble with Washington University. Illini Due for Defeat
TlJinois is trying for its second victory over Howard Jones and Southern California, but I don’t believe Bob Zuppke's boys are capable of repeating. It's a different Trojan team this year, and Illinois’ speed will not be enough. .
Michigan State gets Carnegie Tech following the game with Notre Dame, and despite the fact the Irish took something out of the Skibos, the Spartans, who also had a tough battle with Michigan, are likely to meet defeat, due to Tech's superior defensive line and morale. When the Gophers and Cornhuskers tangle in Minneapolis, it will be ‘a battle of two giant teams. I think Nebraska, a team we meet later in the year, is one of the six best in the country, but Minnesota, playing at home, has had a week's rest ‘and more men, and, barring breaks, should win by a very close margin. In the East the big clashes are between Columbia and Army, Penn and Yale, Penn State and Villanova, Holy Cross and Dartmouth, and Harvard and Brown. Everything seems to be in Army's favor against Lou Little's team—
Dobson, and tradition (how those cadets can play on their Plains!) but it will be close. Pern can be counted on to do cne thing this fall—not let Yale win again, The great Quaker backfield should click and win in a free-scor-ing battle. Penn State, with a Veteran outfit, should repeat its 1935 .victory over “Little Clipper” Smith’s new charge, Villanova, at State College. I would like to see that Holy Cross-Dartmouth game. Dartmouth te lis vastly improved, but the Crusaders have everything back from a

Several key battles are due in the South. Louisiana State, still looking like a champion, has a decided edge over Georgia; Kentucky, with Bart Johnson leading, should win over Geargia Tech, despite the Engineers’ improvement, and Alabama and Auburn should get by Mississippi State and Tennessee, respectively.

Scene No. 1 was laid out on the Washington High School gridiron where the . Continentals of Coach Henry Bogue were to play
The game: represented the third in a series of “suicide” tilts on Cathedral's tough schedule and also was counted upon to reveal the true strength of the Washington eleven which has won two smashing victories thus far this season.
Play Leading Roles
Delavan Smith Athletic Field was selected for the second scene of action and Manual’s Redskins and the Blue Devils of Shortridge High School were destined to play allimportant roles in the production. Both squads were marred by injuries but the traditional rivalry of

Bowlers performing in the various league sessions last night produced the top scoring feats of the
George Schmalz, ‘who ‘has been doing a little bowling for the last few years, reached the peak of his career in in his initial 700 total in the E. C. Atkins League at the Pennsylvania Alleys. Games of 220, 243 and 238 boosted him one pin over the mark and gave the Atkins loop the highest individual total in its history. Schmalz’ mates failed to give him much support, but his series was heavy enough to net the Handle Shop a shutout victory over Office. Metal Saws, Big Band and Laboratory also were three-time winners. Shiping, Narrow Band and Inserted Tooth being the victims. Tool Makers and Atkins Saw took two each from Purchasing and Advertising. “Bunk” Ward, who has been turning in some stellar performances of late,- posted his season’s best in taking runner-up honors of the ‘evening. Rolling in the Printcraft at Pritchett’s he gave Quality Flowers 236, 219 and 232 for a 687, but despite the big boost, the team - lost twice ' to Cornelius Printing, which opened with a 1006. Owen Fancher continued his heavy bombardment with a 664 that aided Indianapolis Star in its'shutcut over Advance Electrotype. Fancher used games of 223, 224 and 217 for his series. Jack Colvin also passed the 650 mark, getting a/659 on 244, 210 and 205, leading Bingham Rollers to a double win over Rapid Rollers, which had Moxley's 606 as its top total. No big scoring took place in the Rolles Printing-Claybourn clash, won by the former, two to one.

Manuel Schonecker again paced members of the Optical L2ague, rolling at the Illinois Alleys. He had a 642 to take last night's honors. All team series were won through odd-game decisions, American, Dr. J. E. Kernels, Fox and Continental defeating Universal Bifocal, ShurOn, White-Hairfes and Optometrists. McGaw Insurance was the only three-time winner of the Elks League at the Antlers Alleys, Smith & Young being the shutout victim.
