TROJANS, BEAKS
TO RENEW FEUD
NEXT SATURDAY
Ban Francisco iiw Riding the
rrest of top-heavy victory, the Tro
jan of Southern California will re
new their ancient trridiron rivalry
with the unsung Bears of California
In the first of this year's "big Rames"
at Berkeley Memorial stadium Sat
urday. California's unpleasant memory of
fin overwhelming defeat in the U. 6.
C game last year brought the feud
to where it outshone in public atten
tion all other coast engagements for
the week-end and these include the
Stanford -Washington U, game at
Seattle.
The omens of good fortune and ft
pair of plunging backs named Moh
ler and Shaver doubtless will carry
off the honors of the day for U. S.
C, but the hard pressed Bears vow
It will not be by any such score a.s
the 74-0 holacauet registered last
year.
As for the Washington -Stan ford
contest, the Cardinals and their
mystery men seem to hold the up
per hand. Unbeaten and tied but
once, the Cards are ahead if statis
tics are any good, which often they
are not. Wwihington has lost to Ore
gon, U. C. and U. 8. C, but none of
these teams has played Stanford.
Glenn Pop Warner has never
put his first team in for an entire
game, and in consequence the ex
perts have been unable to put a
price tag on his men. The proven
worth of Warner's shock troops,
however, make the Palo Altoans fa
vorites. The Oregon U. team, smarting un
der a lacing handed them last week
by the Trojans with a score running
Into the fifties, will vent their ani
mus on North Dakota in an inter
Kctional game at Grand Forks.
The 1830 champion Cougars from
Washington State ought to win their
game with Montana at Missoula.
University or California at Los An
geles held Ncrthwcstcrn to 19-0 in
Evanston last week and are favor
ites to turn back the Pomona col
lege gridders at Claremont.
One of the best Gonzaga teams in
years will come to Kezar stadium
here Sunday for their annual strug
gle with St. Mary's. If the Gaels
play no better than they did last
week. Gonzaga will give them lots of
trouble. But "Slip" Madigan prob
ably has attended to the task of en
livening his squad, and they should
win.
"GAHBY" PLEASED
Joplin, Mo. A) Charles "Gabby"
Street, said Wednesday he was
"mighty proud and happy" that
Frank te Frisch had been selected as
the National league's mast valuable
flayer for 1931. "Frank ie is a great
player," the Cardinal manager said,
"an able field captain, and a real
hustler who gave the Cards every
thing he had through the season
and the world series."

Cornell Bringing Fast
Team For Battle With
Bearcats Friday. Night
Coach Anse Cornell of the College of Idaho has three
backfield men upon whom he
of the Warner formation "B"
otes meet Coacn Keenes wiiiam-
ette university Bearcat on Sweet-
land Held next Friday night at o
o'clock. Two of these men are
freshmen, Maxwell, quarterback
and Wilson, halfback. The third Is
Brown, a veteran halfback. Max
well does the kicking and shares
the pass hurling chore with Brown.
Although Wilson Is said to lack ex
perience he has a pair of tricky
hips which, coupled with unusual
speed makes him a hard man to
stop. He Is given credit for being
one of the cleverest men to don a
Coyote uniform since the eiit of
"Josh" Lowell.

INJURY MAY KEEP
HAINES FROM GAME
Carthage, Mo., iP) "Gabby"
Street, Cardinal pilot, speaking at
a dinner In his honor here Tues
day night, expressed fear that Jess
Haines, veteran ace of the St.
Louis staff, would never be able to
pitch again because of the arm In
jury he suffered toward the close
of the season.
Asked about the prospects of the
Cardinals next year, the manager
said:
"They couldn't stop us In 1931
and I don't see how they're going
to do so next season.
This Game
a0 GOLF
Perusal of the statistics emanat
ing from the final match of the re
cent national professional golfing
championship at the Wannamoisett
Country club convinces me that one
of the war correspondents was suf
ficiently Justified In characterizing
the contest as being the putting
championship.
I do not recall any Important
combat In which fewer putts were
employed on both sides. Accord
ing to Messrs. Armour, Burke and
Sarazen, defeated by the finalists
in earlier rounds, the vivid put
ting pyrotechnics of the last day
merely made it unanimous.
Tom Creavy In defeating Denny
Shute 2 and 1 turned In cards of
73 and 72, against 76 and 71; Just
good, average, iinaustic golf, judged
soieiy by tne totals.
The method of achieving these
totals, however. Is not at all usual.
Shute, the runner-up, used only
l putts In the two rounds, con
ceding him a pair of putts at the
36th green, which was not played.
Giving Creavy the same conces
sionand either or both might
easily have taken only one putt
the new professional champion used
56 putts In the two rounds, or an
average of 28 putts to the round,
against an average of 30.
BARNES ALSO Pl'TTED
Now, years ago, I kept track
pretty closely of the putting of the
winner in our national open cham
pionships; and over a term of years
it worked out between 32 and 33
putts to the round. I started with
Jim Barnes, winning at the Colum
bia Country club In 1921.
Long Jim's fine, smart and steady
putting over some terribly tricky
greens there averaged Just 32 to
the round; and it would be no
great risk to Bay his putting won
for him.
I became deeply interested In the
proportion of putting to the rest
of the game, and have watched it
closely ever since. I do not remem
ber observing any two rounds In
important competition with as few
putts as those of Creavy and Shute
in the P. O, A. finals.
For example. In the most perfect
round of golf Bobby Jones ever
played, the 66 at Stmnlngdale, he
used 33 putts; and In one of the
hardest rounds of his open cham
pionship career, the fourth at St.
Anne's In the British open the same
year, 1926. he scored a 74 with 39
putts In It.
On the other hand, the fewer
putts I ever knew him to use In
an lmnortnnt medal round were 28
in his opening 68 at St. Andrews
in the British open of 1927, He

used 34 putts next day.
Reverting to the original sugges
tion, then, It appears rather plain
that both Shute and Creavy were
missing the green with the proper
shot a good deal of the time; but
gettting the chip or the wee pitch
or perhaps the recovery shot close
enough to make the putting not
so tough.
Shute had ten greens In the 35
on which he used only one putt;
and Creavy had the astonishing
number of 15. That each of the
players scored worse than an aver
age or 72 for the two rounds Indi
cates some rather shocking play
before the putting began.

When successors for Knute Rock,
ne at Notre Dame were being dis
cussed, I heard a number of close
adherents of the Fighting Irish In
sist that Slip Madigan was the man
to "carry on" at South Bend and
keep the quality of football produc
tion up to the wizard's standard.
There is still a strong segment of
opinion that Madigan is the man
for this big job. It likely will gain
momentum with another strong
year for St. Mary's on the coast. . .
WIN STREAKS SNAP
There aren't many winning streaks
of consequence left around the foot
ball map now that the University
of Utah's string, begun away .back
in 1927, has been snapped by the
Utes' setback at the hands of Wash
ington. Even Ohio university's streak,
extending over two seasons, has been
broken. Tennessee had Its unbeaten
march broken up last year.
Notre Dame carried one of the
most impressive winning streaks
into action this year. It was a fit
ting climax for Rockne to pilot two
unbeaten elevens through two of
the hardest schedules any team
ever tackled.
There are no soft &pois for the
Irish this year either, and it will
be close to a miracle If "Hunk'' An

the boys at a winning peak through
