ODIMET, IN BAD
FORM, LOSES TO
PRINCETON MAN
Despite His Fine Start, Na
tional Amateur Champion
Fell a Victim to Grant B.
Peacock's Skill, 2 Up and
1 to Play.
GREENWICH COUNTRV CLUB,
Greenwich, Conn., Sept. 22. Grant IJ.
Peacock, of the Princeton golf team,
furnished a sensation in tho first round
of match piny In the Invitation tourna
ment of the Greenwich Country Club
today by dofeotng Francis Oulmet, of
Woodland, the national amateur cham
pion, by 2 tip and 1 to play. When the
match started Oulmet said he felt the
heat keenly, but oven so reeled off par
figures for tho first three holes and cot
a two-hole advantage on the collegian,
Tho champion played a sensational
three on the 430-yard fifth hole, where
two good shots got tho green, and a
six-foot putt brought his figure for the
hole two under par. This proved to be
his last win. He rimmed the cup on
tho sixth for a live and took six. so
that Peacock with a ftvo won tho hole.
Three halves brought them to the turn
with Oulmet 3 up, going out in 37 to
Peacock's 40.
Then the fireworks began. Oulmet de
veloped a pulling stieak on hie tee shots,
and lost hie putting touch, so usually fine.
He was clearly off. The first hint of this
came at the tenth, where his tee Hhot
down the steep bank was bunkered. He
chipped out finely but missed the six-foot
putt for a ?4. He was fortunate to get
a half at the eleventh, for his tee shot
wss pulled Into the woods, and a daring
second through the tree gave him o
chance for a 9, for Peacock's second had
be. n pulled tn the left of the green.
A l'-foot putt gave Peacock a half In
the twefth, but a widely pulled drive at
the thirteenth cost Oulmet the hole. The
linll came to rest In the eighth tee, and.
although the champion made a good
brassle, his third was to the right of the
green. The match was now equnre, and
te brlsht sun of the title-holder was be
ginning to be clouded.
A superb 4 on the fiOO-ynrtl fourteenth,
won that hole tor the Princeton man.
His third shot was within two yards of
the pin. and he ran clown the putt.
Oulmet was bunkered on his drive and
took four to reach the green. Peacock
won the fifteenth hole when Oulmet's
tee shot was green shy. and he could
not get his three. Two halves In par
left Peacock the winner of the match by
2 up and 1 to play.
"Good work. You deserved to win for
you completely outplayed me," said
Oulmet, as he congratulated his con
queror. The cards were:
Peacock

ATHLETICS ROMP
TO EASY VICTORY
PENN BOXERS ARE
TO MEET F. AND M.
EXPERTS IN RING
Coach Decker, of the Local
Boxing Squad, Has Made
Arrangements for a Dual
Fistic Affair in November.
George Decker, coach of the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania's boxing team, will
Issue a call for candidates within a short
time and expects over 00 aspirants to
report.
For the past four years Decker, who
was formerly famous as a lightweight
fighter, has been Instructing students of
old Pcnn. During the first two years
the men did not show an aptitude for
boxing. Finally, due to the efforts of
Decker and Dr. Talt McKcnzio, physi
cal director of the University, hoxlng
was put on a Arm foundation. The
year was divided Into two terms, fall
and winter. Last year in the fall ses
sion there were about 60 men learning
the rudiments of the game. After foot
hall came to a close some of the grid
iron heavyweights joined the squad. An
effort was made to hold an Intercol
legiate tournament between the teams
of the Eastern colleges last year, but
It fell through. One result, however,
was the formation of teams under com
petent instructors In soveral colleges.
Decker worked hard, holding several
exhibitions during tho two terms. Sev
eral members of the team took part In
the afternoon matinees of Tony Riddle.
Decker reports that arrangements arc
being made to hold a tournntnent with
the team of Franklin and Marshall the
latter part of November. He expects,
with several veterans from last year, tn
make a creditable showing and convince
the authorities that boxing is a coming
college sport.
Negotiations nre also on between the
Penn team and Columbia College.

A good line was gotten on the probable
line-up of tho Pcnn team, which will
start the game against Gettysburg on Sat
urday, when Head Coach Brooke selected
exactly eleven men this morning to make
up the first varsity training table, appa
rently settling for tho time being the per
sonnel of the first string team.
The following players were named ns
the varsity; Captain Journcay, nusscll,
Dorlzns, Harris, Pepper, Scclbach, Mur
dock, Irwin, Jones, Moffltt and Gotwals.
Those who are considered likely looking
enough for tho second varsity nre Mer
rill, Mnthows, Carter, Vrcehtnd, Withe
row, Hughes, Norwnld, Avery, Bnlloil,
Wray and Rockefcllor.
The coaches, however, made up for this
easy drill by mapping out a hard cam
paign for the afUrnoon, Including tack
ling the dummy and a stiff scrimmage.
In the early part of the practice much
attention was paid to working up a speedy
combination between the backflcld and
the ends, special attention being paid to
covering kicks, Brooke also lined up all
his available goal kickers In tho squad
rtnd gave them a thorough drill.

GRIDIRON NEWS GLEANED FROM LEADING COLLEGE CAMPS
By EDWARD R. BUSHNEIiI.
Pennsylvania's football authorities will
make gridiron history by their action In
deciding to number their players in the
game with Gettysburg on Saturday.
Gettysburg's consent to the innovation Is
quite as notable. These two teams wdll
be the first college elevens In America
to demonstrate the worth of this pro
gressive reform. The reform consists In
sewing numbers on the backs of tho foot
ball Jerseys of such a height as to make
them visible In all parts of the field.
Thus the spectators, by reference to their
programs, can Instantly Identify every
player on the field, can tell who makes
touchdowns. Important runs and tackles,
and will have before them tho answers
to countless other questions which spec
tators and newspaper writers have been
accustomed to ask for In vain.
It has taken soveral years of argu
ment to have this reform considered with
approval. Most of the big universities of
the East have shied at It. and oven the
Rules Committee Itself has sidestepped
It. Pennsylvania's attitude has always
been friendly. Four years ago the writer
suggested this plan to the Pennsylvania
and Cornell managements for their an
nual Thanksgiving Day game. The
Quaker coaches, after a discussion of the
pros and cons, agreed to It. So did Cot
neil at first, but two days before the
same the Ithacans asked to be excused
from trying tho experiment.
So far there has never been a big col-l-ge
game where all the players were
numbered, though several high school
teams in and around Boston and New
York have been doing it for seveta! years
ami with marked success. Last fall Dart
mouth numbered Its players for Its final
game with the Carlisle Indians played In
New York. The Indian players, however,
were not so numbered, and while the ex
periment was hailed with delight by th
Gotham football public and scribes. It was
not a fair tst.
About the only objection ever made
was the fear that a star player might
thus bo Identified by the opposition and
either be a mark for their attack or
be more easily watched. This, of course,
is ridiculous on Us face, because when
two teams take the field they Instantly
know the Identity of all their opponents.
And suppose the opposition did know
their opposing players, what good would
this knowledge do them? A number
sewed on the back of Brlckly's Jersey
wouldn't lessen his goal-kicking ability
In the least, but It would always enable
the spectators to Identify the Crimson
captain. And this is the sole purpose
of tha reform
Judging from the aftermath of the "In
terpretation meeting" of the football
coaches rule makers and officials In New
York .Saturday night, there are some
coaches who would find a method to
evade the rule passed by the committee
last winter forbidding the coach to walk
up and down the side lines. Rome astute
individual pointed out that since the rules
do not specifically order the coach to
take a seat on the bench with the play
ers, he might be eligible to act as one
of the linesmen, and that In this posi
tion he would be right on top of the
play, and. if he desires and could get
away with it. he might still coach or
watch the work of his players.
That sort of an evasion might be
technically possible If the men In charge
of intercollegiate football were not gen
tlemen. But this sort of trickery Is
foreign to all intercollegiate ethics and
wouldn't b tolerated for a moment by
any self-respecting university. It is also
reported that as a result of the discussion
at this meeting a request will be sent
out to the members of the Rules Com
mittee asking them to vote on the prop-.
.taiUou that coaebts anef?u tha
side lines by mutual agreement of the
two captains, no matter what the rules
say on this point.
As a matter of fact the consent of the
Rules Committee Is not necessary to do
this, because every rule In the book may
be disregarded by the mutual consent of
the two captains. The members of the
football Rules Committee represent no
one In particular, and if the two cap
tains agreed a touchdown might count
ten points ob well as six. At the same
time the authority of the Rules Com
mlttoo has been accepted without ques
tion, and If a precedent were started by
which two teams would disregard thts
particular rule and flaunt Intercollegiate
sentiment It wouldn't be long before they
might bo waiving some other rules and
wc would have all kinds of trouble.
The only objection made to the rule Is
that It prohibits honest coaches from
utilizing this position to watch the work
of their men, and they can get this in
formation only from the preliminary
games. It Is rather late Jn the day to
raise this point, and since the rule is
011 tho book It ought to be observed to
tho letter.
There Is no more reason why a foot
ball coach should be on the field than
that there Is for a track coach to be on
the trnck during a dual or Intercollegiate
meet. The I. C. A. A. A. A. forbids all
trainers and coaches from being on the
track or within the enclosure during a
championship meet. For the same reasons
coaches are barred from track and field
In all the Important dual meets. Track
authorities feel that coaches get nil the
Information they need about the work
of their men from their dolly training.
Football coaches have the same oppor
tunities, and don't need to stand on the
side lines any more than track coaches
need to be on the marks when their
charges enter a race. It Is to be hoped
In tho Interests of good sportsmanship
that none of the colleges shall osk that
this rule be waived, even for the pre
llmlnary games. It Is Just as fair for one
as for another, and If properly observed
will place tho burden of doing a little
thinking upon the captain or field gen
eral, where it properly belongs.
Pennsylvania's football squad continues
to make progress, and yesterday had
about as stiff a practice as It will get
this season. At any rate, the Quakers
hope they won't have to endure many
more scrimmages with tha thermometer
hovering around the 51 mark. The men
were introduced to the tackling dummy
yeeterdny and given their first Instruction
In this all-Important essential preliminary
to a stiff scrimmage.
Criticism of individual faults of play
at this time would be unfair, but It Is
to be hoped that some of the defects
that clung to last year's backfleld
throughout the season may be rooted out
of the candidates this year. Irwin ap
parently has the Inside track In the race
for quarterback honors. He has already
demonstrated that ht Is fast, a good
kicker and a man who can instil ginger
Into his team. His work yesterday in
dicated that he does not straight-arm
opponents Instinctively, and that he does
not shift the ball from one arm to the
other while on the run. A good quarter
back or any man who hopes to be a
good open field runner must do this.
It Is something that can't be acquired
In a day or a week, but any man who
masters It has added about it per cent,
to his worth. A man who can dodge,
straight-arm and shift the ball from arm
to arm while running in a broken field,
as Hollenback and Mercer could do, is
Just as valuable to a team as a Brlckley.
The wonder Is that some players don't
spend their summers practicing these arts
as Brlckley does drop and place kicking-.
PRINCETON, Sept. 22. It was so hot
that practice was not started until nearly
i o'clock, and It was a quarter of 6 when
the varsity and scrub commenced a half
hmir aeri'mmane. which was stooped by
dartacii jhmM a liilifl boitti Uua I
piny In the regular eleven, which carried
the ball over for two touchdowns and
almost a third.
NEW HAVEN. Sept. 22,-The Yale foot
ball squad began Its practice on Yale
Field yeiterday afternoon. Fifty-five
were taken In charge by Head Coach
Frank Illnkey and will have morning and
nfternoon drill this week. The gates wore
closed, but It Is known that two touch
downs were made, one each by Halfbacks
Knowles and Le Gorge. Branu and Mac
I.elsh were unable to play because of
slight Injuries.
ANNAPOLIS, Sept. 22. - Lieutenant
Douglns L. Howard, who has coached the
Naval Academy football team for the past
three years, has consented to assume the
position fur another year, and took charge
yesterday afternoon. Lieutenant Howard
Is the only Naval Academy head coach
who has handled the team In two succes
sive years when victories were won over
the Army eleven. This was In VM and

Merion C. C. Star's Score of
83 Not Likely to be Beat
en in Medal Play for
Berthellyn Cup.
NOBLE, Pa., Sept. 22. Mrs. Ronald H.
Barlow, of the Merlon Cricket Club, again
demonstrated her ability as a med,at
player by making the very flno scoro of
83 hero today In tho qualifying round of
the Berthellyn Cup. With tho cojirso
baked as hard ns iron, as alt courses aro
at the present time, this scoro Is oven
better than It looks, and although It may
be beaten, such a contingency Is highly
Improbable.
Going out, Mrs. Uarlow took 46 strokes
an eight on tho fourth being the only
bad stroke. Sho struck all the way round,
Coming In sho played magnificent golf,
and took only 38 strokas for the last nine
holes, easily a record' for a woman for
the course. In a downpour of rain last
year, Mrs. Barlow won tho medal with
a score of 94.

Another matter of Interest that oecu.

nthletlcs here, 'it is a known fact that ;
there are few places where the boy j

city thcro should be plenty of vacant I
spots where an up-to-date athletic field '
could be developed. Point Breeze cours ,
and the one at Central Park are tha '
only ones where track sport may be pro. -moted

DJa ever play that game o' Rhum?
Most' guys, I guess, have played It some.
It's funny how It goes. You have a card
not worth a rap and chuck It. Zip!
Some other chop Just snaps It up an'
throws. Well, Jumpln" to the baseball
yard, Dick Rudolph scorns to be that
card an" Muggsy laid It down. For Stall
Ings played next to McGraw. When
Muggs discarded, Stalllngs' paw snagged
Dick for Boston town.
Dick's right arm got to workln' fine
In Canada In 1903 with ol' Toronto's crew.
The Giants grabbed him off next year,
but Muggsy soon began to fear he
wouldn't ever do. So, cut adrift, Dick
floated "round till last year when the
Braves' boss found -that he could use
his slants. Dick pitched right In. took
oft his coat an' got aboard the slnkin'
boat. It gave the ono big chance.
An' chance it was. Jus' take a plko
at how that team began to hlko when
Dick got on his stride. Those nine big
wins that he copped straight sute sue
up like a speedy gait for one who's
chucked aside. An' Just to hand Mc
Graw the laugh he took the Giants on
his staff an' beat 'em once or twice. If
those Braves cop the big burgee Jawn J.
will seek a buggery an' pack his head In

Football mobilization has been com
pleted and the first skirmishes will take
place shortly. Cornell will go under fire
tomorrow in n battlo with Urslnus, while
Vale, Harvard, Princeton and the other
colleges will take to tho gridiron on Sat
urday for their first engagements. The
outlook Is blighter this year than ever,
and there will be about 15 big games
played. Surely enough to satisfy tho
nppetltes of the most exacting followers.
An athletic Moses Hke James K. Sulli
van does not develop In a life time, and
It will take many a year before his plnco
Is filled in the hearts of American ath
letes. That Is tribute enough for a great
man.
Tho Federal league still has Its eye
open for players of tho National league.
The latest planned raid Is directed toward
the Cubs. Tommy Leach is tho player
concerned. Tho Feds claim that if tho
Chicago National League management
does not aWard an Iron-clad three-year
contract to the outfielder ho will Jump.
Hans Lobert is the only man on tho
Philadelphia club who Is tulked of In
connection with the Teds. When nues
tiomd about the matter, Huns simply
states that he hasn't signed wl.h the
Phillies yet for 1913. Hut whether he is
seriously considering an olfer or not Is a
matter of speculation. Possibly Hans In
tends to go and possibly he has ni. such
intention.
Eddie Slorgan, featherweight boxer,
has landed in this country from London,
Kng. Morgan's advent tllla the hearts
of the fans with a longing to tee him In
action with Johnnie Kilbaue nnd others.
Very likely Morgan will fight the others
before he Is taken setlously.

There U really nu reason why the
Athletics or the owners of the local
Ameilcan League club should pull fur
the New York Giants to win out this
year rnther than the Braves. They take
It, or at least the majority of them do,
that the gate receipts would be larger
in New York than they would bo In
Boston, but the figures of 1912 and 1913
show that there Is very little difference.
In 1912 the Red Sox and Giants had
31,653 paid admissions at Fenway Park
for the fifth game of the series. At
the Polo Grounds last October Ihe larg
est paid attendance at the Athletic.
Giant contest was 3S.6S3 This proves
that there is not enough difference in
ihe seating capacity, of. Jb J?cIq apd.
wsfifc,
Fenway grounds to make a material dlf.
ference in the receipts. Furthermore,
there are more high-priced seats border
ing tho Boston diamond than there ara
nt the Polo Grounds, nccordlng to Presi
dent Lannln, of the Red Sox. There
fore, Inasmuch as It has already been
determined by the National Commission
that the games will bo played In Boston
at Fenway Park, and not nt tho NaUonal
League one, In case tho Braves win it
Is hard to see how such a small differ
ence In figures could affect the playerj
nnd owners.
Boston, like Philadelphia, was originally
and still is fundamentally a National
League ball town. Hence, If tho world's
series Is played In the Hub city Fenway-.
Park is sure to bo filled to its capacity
at every contest. The people of Boston
would rather see the Braves win the
pennant In tho National League than ,
they would tho Red Sox to win twice. '
Just why this condition of fanatic affairs
exists no ono can say. But it does '
exist, and It exists In this city as well
bb in the metropolis of Massachusetts.
SAID FRED LUDERUS:
I love to give the ball a bout;
I swat 'em out of sight,
BUT
Unless I'm sent in with a clout
Of circuit length Good night!" '
Hans Lobert Is far from being the un
luckiest player In the game. Yesterday
Hans hit a hard one, which looked, how
ever, ns though It would bo caoy for Hug
gins. However, the ball took a bad hop,
went over Hugglns' head to deep right
centre, and Huns made two bags. Ha
nlmost duplicated the feat later In tha
game, except that he only made ono base.
