(AP) The era of fabulous salaries In profes sional football Is past; linemen are paid on an average of 1100 a game and back $160, John V, Mara, pres ident of the New York Giants, said today. W found out," he explained, "that it didn't work to play one star around $800 a game and the rest of his teammates about 100. The ma jority resented It and their resent ment sometimes showed In their play. "But It's a better profession for the majority of the players today. The money the stars were getting a year ago la now being distributed more evenly over the squad, and they know now that they'll be paid the full amount of their season's contract even If they're hurt In the first game," Trie scale of wngea for linemen re mains below that of tho backs, de spite the fact that forwards capable of playing big time pro bail are harder to find than good backs. "Of course;" he added, "there are some linemen In the National league today who are making as much money as most of the backs on their squad, but they are In the minor ity." Mar.a said that both Ken Strong and Harry Newman, who have since left the club, were paid over $10,000 by the Giants last year, but that the system of paying them so much more than the other members of the squed did not work out.

Barker NEW YORK, Oct. 16. (&) It' about time for a flock of upsets to floor the football gue&iieri flat but this la no time to retreat: Navy-Yale; The Tars are one of the east's major powers but they have looked a bit vulnerable to a good pass ing attack. Yale will have that as well as the same stout-hearted de fence that stopped Penn'a bone cnuhers. We'll take the Ells. Northweatern-Ohio State : This wavering ballot goes to Ohio State. Harvard-Army; Harvard Is definite ly on the way up. A vote for Army however. Southern ' California-Washington State: A crucial conference test for both but the clever Trojan offense looks good enough to put this in the southern California victory bag. Duke-Georgia Tech: Georgia Tech. Colgate-Tuiane: It must be some thing besides luck that keeps Tulane In the undefeated claas and this corner la hopping on the green wave band wagon, perhaps at the wrong moment. Temple-Carnegl Tech: The Owls.. Penn-Prlnceton: Despite Its unreal ized potentialities there's no way to pick Penn against a Tiger that has lost only a few of the bigger teeth that gnawed through all opposition last year. New York University-North Caro lina: The visiting Tarheels. Cornell-Syracuse: Cornell but here's! hoping the Ithaoans have learned a lot more football than they knew In , the Yale bowl two weeks ago. Dartmouth-Brown: The Indians! on the warpath with Brown as the victim. Iowa-Ill lnols: One of the big ten's tightest struggles. The coin , says Iowa. Nebraska-Indiana: Nebraska looks too strong. Minnesota-Michigan : Somebody's trimmed the Wolverine's claws too sharply. No, 20 In a row for Min nesota. Notre Dame-Wisconsin: Wisconsin's due to spring at least one upset this season but this doesn't look like the spot for It. Mlchlgan-State-Missourl; State. Alabama-Tennessee: The volunteers engulfed by the Crimson Tide. Georgia-Rice: Comparative scores (the little rascals) say Rice but only faintly. Callfornia-U. C. L. A.: California hasn't looked nearly as good as was expected, but we'll string along with the Golden Bears once more. Washington-Oregon State: No choice but Washington possible. GEHRIG 'MOST VALUABLE' LUKE APPLING IS SECOND CLEVELAND. O., Oct. 18 (AP) Lou Gehrig, the "iron man" first base man of the world champion New York Yankees and leading home run hitter of the 1036 American league season. was named today by the Baseball Writers' Association of America as the "most valuable player to his team."

Klein the Tailor: upstairs. Closln time for Too Late to Clat- glfv Ads Is 1:30 p. rn Civil war veterans who boast "I was at Shlloh" will have their counter parts after Monday night In the six wrestlers who will be able to say: "I was In the Med ford battle royal.' t While more men were Involved in the Shlloh hostilities, the percentage of wounded will probably be heavier next week, even if no one Is killed. Two of the grapplers, Pete Delcas tro and Les Wolfe, will be lucky If they get out of the melee with no broken bones, however, and the best that Billy Burns, the last member of the trio of meanles, may expect Is several bad skinned places and a few knots on his head. The three clean wrestlers on the program will see to. that. They are Joe Hubka, Gene Moore and Jimmy Goodrich. Just which mean wrestler will get the works first Is a matter of some speculation. Burns may be ruled out at once, for his brand of meanness, while bad enough, Is not of as long standing as Is Belcastro's or Wolfe's. Some fans believe that the Italian should receive the combined atten tion of the others, while some feci that Wolfe should not be neglected. Such speculations will go for naught If the seemingly Impossible happens and the villains declare a truce among themselves and all work under the same banner. The idea of Wolfe and Belcastro working together is about as easy to entertain as the notion that the League of Nations will take Ethiopia away from Musso lini, for the two cross-grained grap plers can't even speak civilly to each other, but if the unexpected does occur, It may be one of the Hubka Moore -Goodrich combine to bite the dirt first. The free-for-all will be the second battle royal ever held here (they are barred by law in 18 states), and the first here to have six Instead of five participants. The first two heavea from the ring, or pinned for the count, will return after the main struggle to wrestle to a one-fall fin ish. The next two will meet later in the middle event and the final sur vivors will provide the main event, all finish matches. Two mediators wilt be in the ring, probably Ray Frlsble and Swede An reson. Anderson owes Belcastro a knockout punch and may find a way to sneak one In on the Italian In the confusion of the struggle. up In the Frosh battle will be com pletely erased against the Rooks.
