,LAYDEN-ZUPPKE HONOR SYSTEM
HOOSIER COACHES ADOPT PLAN
Operating on a program of rigid economy, the Dodgers are going to struggle through next season with
LMER LAYDEN, Notre Dame grid coach, and Bob : Zuppke, veteran chief of the Illini, started something when they agreed to assume responsibility for checking their own substitutes in the Irish-Illini game at Champaign Oct. 9... They will be honor bound to keep close tab and see that no illegal substitutions are made . . . This arrange- - ment will lessen the umpire’s duties and permit more alert and watchful officiating . . . Now the Indiana College ' Coaches’ Association has adopted the Layden-Zuppke plan for its intrastate games this fall. The coaches’ association and the Indiana Officials’ Association have reached an agreement on interpretations of certain rules which are a bit puzzling as written in the book . . . Puzzling to a layman, at any rate. .. Clarification has been made on the rules governing the kickoff, shift, pass interference, ineligible receivers and “accidental” kicks of the Larry Kelley model. ” = 2 TIOOSIER coaches also have agreed to discourage their players against pandhandling officials for penalties cee This does not mean a player is denied the right to direct an official’s attention to repeated fouls. . . . The mentors realize the officials miss one now and then but are willing to rely on their judgment and let them handle the game without being pestered by the “Look-He-Clipped-Me Boys .. . Both coaches and officials wish to speed up the game - by eliminating a lot of unimportant angles. : Schools and colleges also are urged to place yard-line markers every five yards and appoint a side-line patrolman to replace markers which are flattened. 2 ” » ; t the Fair Grounds track side Be oan. pind would have trotted the mile and a half in a flat three minutes had the day been warm and with no wind. ...

Giants Divide | With Bucs but Increase Lead
Bob Logan Sees Service on Bruin Mound After Tex Carleton Blows Up.
By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 15.—The pressure temporarily was off the New York Giants today after another full game had been added to their National League lead. . Trailing by 2% games, the Chicago Cubs looked worse than when they blew their lead of seven games in August. The Giants broke even yesterday with the Pirates, but picked up a game when the Cubs
- | dropped two to the Boston Bees.
Carl Hubbell became the first major league. pitcher to win 19 games when he hurled the Giants to a 12-2 triumph over Pittsburgh in the opener. Staked to a four-run lead in the first inning Hubbell breezed to victory, although he allowed 10 hits. The Giants staged an eight-run rally with two out in the sixth to clinch the game. Cy Blanton stopped the Giants, 6-2, in the second game, allowing eight hits. Logan Sees Service The Cubs’ attack completely folded up as they lost to the Bees, 9-0 and 4-2. They made only five hits off John Lanning in the opener and seven off Danny MacFayden in the nightcap. : Tex Carleton, an old Boston jinx, was knocked out of the box by an eight-run rally in the fifth inning of the opener. A triple play gummed up the works for the Cubs in the second game. With men on first and second Clay Bryant lined to Rabbit Warstler, who made a leaping catch to start the three-ply killing. Bob Logan, formerly of Indianapolis, relieved Carleton in the sixth of the first game and went the rest of the way, yielding four hits in the 3 1-3 innings he worked. - Cards Tie for Third The Cardinals moved into a tie with the Pirates for third place by winning twice from the Phillies, 9-8 in 14 innings and 1-0 in five innings. Three times the Cards came from behind before they won the opener when Joe Medwick’s double scored Terry Moore. Lon Warneke hung up his 18th win in the second game, allowing five hits.

Palin Hints at New Test Run
Shaves Nearly 10 Seconds! From 1V5-Mile Mark. |
A new. world record for one and a half miles safely marked in the record book, E. J. Baker’s Greyhound was munching his oats impatiently today, awaiting a chance to crack Peter Manning's 15-year-old world trotting mark for one mile. Sep Palin, Greyhound’s trainer, announced yesterday that he will drive his brilliant speedster in an attempt to break the world mile mark as well as the local track record at the Fair Grounds either Friday or Saturday, weather and track conditions permitting. The world mark at which Greyhound will shoot is 1:563%, made by Peter Manning at Lexington, Ky., In 1922. The local track record of 2:003% was established by Angel Child in 1935. Greyhound’s best time for a mile is 1:57%. Yesterday afternoon the American trotting champion stepped off a mile and a half in 3:021%, breaking by nearly 10 seconds the world reccrd of 3:12%, marked up by Rosalind last week at Syracuse, N. Y. About 4500 harness racing fans watched the exhibition, which was supervised by the American Trotting Association. Because of strong winds on the back stretch, no attempt was made to lower the mile record. . Greyhound covered the last mile in 2:00%2, a quarter second faster than the local track record, but because he was not aiming for the mile mark he will not be credited with a new track record for that distance. C. H. Perry, assistant secretary of the American Trotting Association who supervised the: test, indicated that Greyhounds record will be recognized by his association, parent body of American harness

Roche Knocks Out Roche
So Zaharias Gets Nod
By TOM KENNEDY For some minutes last night George (Cry Baby) Zaharias must hav been convinced that he had made a very serious error in getting himself reinstated so he could do some more rasslin’ with Dorve (Iron Man) Roche. : George, in fact, took quite a tossing around, lost the first fall and was in a fair way to being slammed in the next two except that Dorve put too much of the old heave ho into his lunges and knocked himself out. It was a case of Dorve Roche beating Dorve Roche, but Sam Murbarger of the Athletic Commission won’t allow such foolishness and so
Cry Baby got the nod.
The match was the feature bout of the season’s first indoor card at the Armory. In others Dan O’Connor of Boston tossed Jim Wright of New York and Rube Wright of New York subdued Bob Wagner of Dallas.
An Affair of Honor
But the Roche-Zaharias bout— being an affair of honor—for the Cry Baby—was what the fans came out in great numbers to see. Roche, be it remembered, got the decision over Zaharias several weeks ago when Chris, his brother, started to climb into the ring, apparently to give a hand to the Cry Baby. For this sort of thing the Zaharias boys were set down by Boss Murbarger, but later got themselves back in the good graces, as the boys say. Well, that was the setting, Cry Baby out for revenge and Dorve very much defiant, etc. It started out, though, as if Zaharias really was going to have the last laugh. He went at Dorve savagely and the crowd began to feel sorry for the Decatur, Ill, boy, but Dorve, the rascal, was only playing possum, or somthing. Suddenly he started after George and, picking
jond one, too. He was giving Cry Baby the business in the way of some center rushes that would have tickled the heart of Bo McMillin and the other football boys when he made a serious mistake in strategy. He butted into George's left (cauliflower) ear. This was the same as if he had butted into a concrete mixer—only more so—and Dorve went down for the count. Zaharias took the third fall the same way except that this time Dorve sailed through the ropes and landed on the floor. He managed to crawl back into the ring but still was not feeling his old self so Cry Baby flipped him over for an easy fall. It was all very discouraging to Dorve and it looks as if the boys will have to have an encore before the honor of the.Zaharias family can be settled definitely to the satisfaction of all concerned.
