Isn't that what started most of the recent rules trouble?

Alter cowing n times in a row when they were lowly cel laritcs, the Bruins tangled with the Red Birds last night for the lirst time since they attained their lofty but unsteady" perch in the first division. The result was the same. Never in the history of the ma jor leagues has one team swept an enure season series irom a rival. The New York Yankees of 1927 came the closest when they slaughtered the' St. Louis Browns 21 times before bowing 6-2 on-September 11 in their last meeting of the year. That was the Yankee team of the Ruth era that uncovered Wilcey Moore, one of the game's great relief artists. The Cooper boys teamed up on Chicago last night, -Morton coasting to his 18th win 11-1, and Walker driving in three runs with three singles and his 9th home run. The entire American league was idle yesterday with all the other Nationals and the sehedule makers provide only two senior circuit games today and another off day in the Harridge loop. Both leagues set back to normal Friday. Grid Mentor Likens Play To Fashions DETROIT. Aue. 24 Pi T!Vnt. ball's veteran coach, Charles E. (Gus) Dorais, starting his second season at the helm of the Na tional Pro league Detroit Lions after 27 years as a collegiate mentor, came up today with an observation that styles of play in football return in cvcles like feminine fashions. Dorais. who as Notre Dame quarterback more than 30 years ago paired with End Knute Rockne to form the game's first successful forward passing com bination, was referring specifi cally xo ine "i- formation, which pre-season press notices indicate win be employed al most universally this fall. The "T" formation, without its modern versatility, was a standard offense in 1910 and 1911, Dorais' first seasons at Notre, he recalled. Later offensive departures, specifically the Warner wine- back system behind an unbal anced line, followed by - the Notre Dame system with its bal anced line, each was widely copied for a time.
