He follows the theory that the football customers don’t like the huddle, althouch he'll be running the risk of having signals gummed up now and then. Dorais declares that sometimes players are inclined to make a debating society of the group gathering and areoue about the quarterback’s choice of plays, something they can’t do when the numbers are barked from

ation. When a team has the enemy definitely on the run, so Dorais believes, there is a very definite advantage in keeping things moving faster than is possible from a huddle. . .. The pauses during which the defense does not have to be alert are shortened by abolishing the huddle. 2 8 2 = o = I’ is a moot point whether the huddle actually does slow up the action . Some authorities say that just as many plays are run in the cou of a game with it as without it. For one thing, huddies a very well defined pause during which nothing can happen, ball may be snapped at any time when signals are given

FAVORITES BATTLE IN GOLF TOURNEY

Patty Berg, Miss Traung

Mrs. Page Has Close Match In National Meet at Wilmette, il.

WILMETTE, Ill, Sept. 22 (U. P). —A giant meets a giant-killer today and out of that wild, quarterfinal scramble will emerge the lower bracket favorite for the Women’s National Amateur golf crown. The giant is husky Dorothy Traung of San Francisco and the other, of course, is red-haired Patty Berg, the Minneapolis wizard, whose deadly irons have given her the greatest record in golf for 1938. It’s the hottest match of the day and the victor likely will be the final round opponent of Mrs. Estelle Lawson Page, the defending champion from Chapel Hill, N. C,, who plays just enough golf to win all her matches. Mrs. Page meéts Mrs. Frank Goldthwaite of Ft. Worth, Tex, and Peggy Graham, Hollywood, Cal, plays Mrs. E. R. Huy of Dallas, Tex, in the upper bracket quarterfinals. Marion Miley, former Western Derby champion from Lexington, Ky. meets Marian MecDougall of Portland, Ore, in the other lower bracket match.

Patty Wins Close One

Both Patty and Mrs. Page had scares yesterday. After winning her second-round match easily from Jean Bauer of Providence, R. I, 4

20-year-old Eva Shorb of Canton, O., and was four down at the end of nine holes. She picked up three straight with a par and two birdies coming in, evened the match with a par on the 15th and clinched it] with another par on the 17th where Miss Shorb’s drive was wide of the! green and she took a bogey four. | Mrs. Page almost blew her second | round match to Helen Waterhouse, Warwick, R. I, by scoring a pair of shaky sixes late in the match but her foe cracked at the same time and the champion finally won 2 and 1. She later defeated Betty Jameson, San Antonio, Tex. 4 and 2. Mrs. Goldthwaite whipped Helen Dettweiler, Washington, D. C, and 3, and Eliamae Williams, Chi- | cago, 7 and 3, in her march to the | quarterfinals. Miss Graham de- | feated Jesse Anderson, Perth, Scot- | land, 2 and i, and Mrs. Harry McNaughton, Great Neck, N. Y, 2 and 1. Mrs. Hury defeated Harriet Randall, Indianapolis, 5 and 3, and Clarrie Tiernan, Baltray, Ireland, 2 up. Miss Tiernan, last of the British Curtis Cup team members, | previously had eliminated the Kansas City veteran, Mrs. O. S. Hill.
