RING LARDNER HITS
MICHIGAN TRAINING
CAMPAND IS FED
Yost Allows Him to See
'Practice and Also the Crip
ples on the Football
Team.
By RING W. LABDNER
ANN ARBOfl, Mich., Oct. 27. Ab Boon
. nno becomes a war correspondent ho
f. orlvlleged to write of himself as "I"
and 'me." If yo don,t object I wN work
that privilege to the limit nnd state right
off the reel that I arrived In Ann Arbor
tut night and nobody was down at the
train to meet me. So I called a taxi,
which will ho duly charged on the ox
mm account, and was driven up to tho
hotel The name of tho hotel has been
changed. It used to be the Cook House,
and now It's something else. Its new
name Is deleted by the censor under tho
nil which prohibits free advertising! hut
If mall Is addressed to mo at tho Cook
Hcuio I will get It.
I registered, engaged a room and a
good night's slcop. I arose early this
morning, shaved, dressed and had break
fast and then was steered up to the nth
lttlc association's ofilce, where Director
Bartclmo and hs assistants nnd Lino
Coaches "Germany Schultr." and "King"
Cole" were mourning over the outcome of
the Svracuto game.
Along camo Yost and tho mourning
(topped, partly because ho himself didn't
appear downhearted and partly because
there was no tlmo to do anything but
listen with him around.
"Syracuse didn't win that game," he
eald, "we won It for them. Tho boys did
everything but what thoy had been
coached to do. We blew up after Splawn
was hurt. Catlott had two chancos to
punt out of dangor nnd mado two short
punts. That gavo Syracuse one touch
down and tho others were presented to
them by our fumbling. Whatever Syra
cuse says about us, they can't accuse us
of discourtesy. Wo did everything possi
ble to help thorn along."
CIUPPLES SHOW UP.
And on and on until Tommy Hughltt,
the crippled regular quarterback, put In
an appearance He was mado to romovo
his coat and roll up his Bhlrt sleeves so
Trainer Farrell and Yost could oxamlno
his bum left elbow.
Johnny Mnulbctsch and Captnln Jimmy
Itaynsford Joined tho bunch in tho ath
letics association's office nnd I was glad
to meet them. Perhaps It was mutual.
Maulbetsch has a fighting face; so has
Raynsford at present, for his left cyo is
several colors of tho rainbow as a result
of Its running a foul of a Syracuse elbow
last Saturday. Maulbetsch looks too
small for a football player, but they say
he's a young ox and ablo to lick twice
his weight in wildcats.
Coach Yost finally asked us to take a
ride In his car nnd four of us did so. Tho
coach Is a good driver asldo from the
fact that ho Is likely at any moment to
lake his hands off the wheel and dive Into
Ills pocket for a pnper and pencil with
which to Illustrate where tho defensive
halfbacks should play on a shift forma
tion. However, ho brought us safely back
to4 headquarters after showing us the
beauties of the town. ,
GETS A FEED.
I was agreeably surprised by being In
vited to have lunch nnd all subsequent
meals at the training tabic. I hope this
part of It will bo forgotten before tho
expense account is turned in. Tho faro
was good, but as Germany Schultz
pointed out, you could have cut tlio
gloom with a knife.
"I'm glad of it," he said, "It will do
them good to ba soie on thomsclves.
They know they woro rotten against
Syracuse and will try to malts up for It
by working this week."
Yoit ordered his varsity squad to re
port at Ferry Field for practice at 2:30
and then we all got up and beat it, tho
players to tholr various classes, the
coach to the privacy of his homo to
think up playB for use against Harvard,
and Germany Schultz and your corre
spondent to tho billiard hall.
At 5:30 the varsity squad gathered on
Ferry Field and the coach wus kind
enough to let me watch the practice.
Or perhaps he was trying to freeze mo
lo death, but the practice was secret, so
1 can't tell you much about it. Thero
may have boon scrimmages toward the
close of it. but by that time your scribe
was at the hotel trying to get warm.
Assisting Yost in instructing his
charges were Schultz, Cole, Watkins,
Harry Hammond and Old Willie Bea
ton, who broke away for tho nfternoon
from his onerous duties ns Assistant
irojecutlng Attorney at Detroit. Hugh
ltt was In at quarterback for the var
sity in the signal drill and handled tho
Si m' aItllousn his left arm appealed
un. The men lined up with Itaynaford
at centre, Mcilale and Watson at the
guaids, ltelraann and Cochran at tackles,
maata and Benton at ends. Hughltt at
quarterback, Lyons and Maulbetsch at
ealves and Hplawn at full. Hughltt was
lull of pep and Instilled a lot of It Into
the others.
CATLETT GETS PANNED.
One couldn't help sympathizing with
Buzz Catlett. who has been punned for
l!!Jn,!?Jeed3 ln tne Syracuse game, Buzz
look his mistakes to heart, but he worked
y.i. 7 . e m Ula Practice, and If ho
d.rL.nt? ,he ""vara game ho can be
opended on to light. Realizing this.

College Gridiron Gleanings
By EDWARD H. BUSHNE-.I-If
Princeton wins tho Intercollegiate
football championship this year that re
suit Is likely to be achieved more through
superior generalship than superior physi
cal strength. Against Dartmouth the
Princeton team seemed Inferior physically,
but the Tigers far surpassed their rivals
In generalship. And other things being
equal, or nearly so, generalship will
always win.
It was no accident thnt young Ames di
rected tho play of the Princeton team so
admirably. It Is truo that he is the son
of "Snake" Ames, one of Princeton's
greatest players of tho lost generation,
but ho is a success because ho has been
tnught football strategy and given plenty
of chance to test his knowledge and de
velop his initiative on the gridiron. It Is
a part of tho new Princeton system.
Threo days a week the Tigers play regu
lar games agnlmt the substitutes, tho
Bcrubs or the freshmen. The varsity
quarterback Is told to run the team and
the coaches stop the play Just as little
as possible.

Y0DN6 GOLF STARS
OF PHILADELPHIA
DEVELOPING FAST
Great Form Shown in Match
Play and Tournaments by
Norman Maxwell and M.
M. Jack.
Based on tho Improvement In form of
some of tho older golfers and tho nppear
nnco of now stars among tho younger
devotees of tho royal nnd ancient game,
tho Pcason just closing has been ono of tho
most successful In the history of the Golf
Association of Philadelphia. While thoro
Is no ono In thin district who can bo
classed with Oulmet, Evans or Travern,
still the competitions this year have
brought out players who, If they develop
ln the next fow years as rapidly ns they
havo In the past, will undoubtedly becoms
famous nationally.
Tho most promising of tho youngor
players of whom little or nothing was
hoard previous to this year aro Norman
II. Maxwell, Aronlmlnk, and M. M, Jack,
Merlon. Tho former showed what ho
could do In tho Glest tourney at Whlto-
marsh, when ho defeated S. V. Anderson,
Hon Air; I.. . Doming. Whltemarsh ;
Walter Reynolds, Aronlmlnk, nnd then
capped tho climax by defeating that ster
ling Atlantic City golfer, Maurlco RIslcy,
runner-up In tho Now Jersey champion
ship. Jack's rlso to famo has been mado In
a short space of time. At tho time of tho
HL Martin's tournament but littlo was
known of Jack except at his own club.
Ho won his first two matches, going
around in 76 in tho first Hnd winning on
the 19th hole ln his second. George C.
Thomas, Jr., was his opponent In tho
semifinal, and won by the comfortable
margin of n up nnd 4 to play. Later Jack
won tho Stephenson Memorial Trophy at
tho Merlon Cricket Club, and then fol
lowed that up by winning tho Golf Asso
ciation's llrst Junior Tournament in de
cisive fashion.
In addition to Jack, other youngster
who showed promise were R. W. Thor
ington and D. Rhoads, Spring Haven,
neither of whom can claim to being moro
than IS years old. J. II. Cay, Jr.. Phila
delphia Cricket Club, Is another Junior
who will bear watching.
Although Spencer L. Jones, Plymouth
Country Club, cannot bo considered a
Junior, still he is quite a young player,
and if ho shows a fraction of tho Im
provement In tho next fow years that ho
has mado in tho last two. ho also will
amount to something outside of this lo
cality. As far as the women are concerned we
havo nothing to fear either now or In tha
future The Philadelphia representatives
won tho Crimson Cup at Greenwich, and
were also very well placed In the East
ern championship. In the latter event
Mrs. Vanderbeck was third. Mrs. Barlow
fourth. Mis Caverly lifth, Mrs. Fox sixth
and Mrs. Fitler eighth. Five out of tha
first ten places leaves nothing to com
plain of. Mrs. Vanderbeck and Mrs Bar
low wero seml-flnalists In tho women's
national championship nt Nnau. A
greatly Improved player Is Mrs. E H
Filler. Merlon Cricket Club. Mrs. Fitler
hae tho best of form and a nice feature
of her game is that she does not strive
for distance.
Among the younger goLfcrs of tho fair
sex who havo by their work this season
promised well for the future are Miss
Mildred Caverly. Miss Catherlno Davis
a? ,l8S Mny Be"' n11 ot the Philadel
phia Cricket Club, and Mies E. M. Camp
bell, of Overbrook. Miss Bell still has a
handicap above ten. but In the past year
she had 12 strokes taken off.
Rod and Gun
Hunters are looking forward to the
rabbit and quail season, which opens next
Monday November 2. Yelping of the
beaglo hounds during theso October
mornings has sent tho blood racing
through the sportsmen's veins.
Hunters are cautioned not to bag more
than the law allows, which Is ten rabbits
ton quail, six squirrels and llvo pheasant,
for one day's outing. Wild turkey and
tloe3 are protected. Brer' rabbit Is re
ported to bo nice and fat this season.
Reports from Esslngton, Media, West
Chester and nearby polnt3 are encourag
ing. Commercial hunters nt Reelfoot Lake.
Ky.. received a check to their operations,
when Colonel Joseph H. Acklon, the chief
Game Warden for the Untted States,
spent a few days at Walnut Log, a
famous stopping place for hunters. Tho
enforcement of the new game law for
the protection of migratory birds was
tho object of Colonel Acklen's visit.
A party of local business men William
II. Moyor. David Kurtz. Plerco R. Car
penter and Samuel Shultz are planning
their annual trip to Cameron County
Others who will pack their togs for a
hunting trip are: William G. Rldgoway.
Adolph Ernst and Joseph Mellon, nil of
Philadelphia ; S. Moore, Ardmore; Joseph
Johnson, Bala, and A. E. Hot-rick, of
Pocono Summit
Alfred P. Lane, tho young American
short-arms wizard, who beat the world
with his pistol and revolver ut tha
Olympic Games In 1313. Is still shooting
in good form. This, at least, would seem
to be indicated by his scare of 13 out
of a pobsible CO made at the Manhattan
Riflo and Revolver Club. New York city,
the other night. This remarkable shoot
ing was dona with a military revolver at
SO yards. S shots rapid fire.
This latest achievement of the youth
ful champion means that, standing 60
leet from a tarsot with n !-lnch bull's
eye, shooting over an electric-lighted
range, against time. Lane put the Ave
shot all in the little black spot and onlv
14 seconds elapsod from the command
"fire ' to the bound of the last shot.
