IDark, Gloomy and Sad Stories About Flock of
Cripples Are Missing" This Year Before Big
Games O'Neill Has the Proper System
' '.TPIIE. football bear, that healthy animal which romps around collego football
CAITitVl YlAfnrn Vile rrntnna ntifl Inelaiu run tmtMnrv In Hilinn 4ha 4i1ftt.VlAfnrA.tVtn.
battlo statements nro spread broadcast to an eager and excited public, has been
severely wounded this year and virtually driven out of the crldlron picture. For
jRthe first tlmo In many seasons the animal has been as conspicuous as tho station
At gent at Port Indian, Pa. and there ain't no station agent.
Tho football bear made his or her or possibly Its appearance back In the
dark ages when football became popular among tho Institutions of higher educa
tion or something llko that. At flrst he was used to frighten the enemy, but as
the years rolled on tho coaches came to tho conclusion that this stuff was exceed-
H ingly rough and decided to uso tho well-known animal as a camouflage. In this
manner the foo was led to bcllevo that tho football team which was to bo played
on Jhe following Saturday was Just ns healthy and active as a group of athletes
from tho old soldiers' homo and the gamo would be called off unless tho referee
allowed tho players to wear their crutches on tho Held. Wo used to read that
Smith, tho great tackle, probably wouldn't play much of a gamo because of a
broken neck; and Jones, tho brilliant quarterback, would be slowed down consld-
, erably because of two broken legs and a sprained wrist. Sometimes tho entlro
r ' "9$ eam was Placed In tho hospital so they could rest easy; but when tho day of tho
hwtf' " game arrived tho players showed up with Are In their eyes and ready to play the
gamo of their lives. It was then that tho camouflage was discovered, for the
other team would fall for tho "bear" stuff on raro occasions. Sometimes both
teams were placed In tho hospital to recuperate, and this was found to bo tho
best defense.
Fielding II. Yost Is tho most wonderful "bear" expert In existence. If you
believe the stories sent out from Ann Arbor before tho I'cnn game, you will soak
tho family Jewels and mortgage tho flivver to get coin to bet that tho score will
be more than 100 to 0. Yost can lnjuro more men and havo less chanco of win
ning than any other coach in the world.
TAD JONES, of Yale, also Is pretty good. One day before a gamo with
Brown Tad told us that, outsldo of his eleven regulars, the team was
In great shape and ho didn't know who would play. Tho Drown coach
also had a big list of cripples, but when the whistle blew every regular
was in place and In the pink of condition.
Buck O'Neill, Syracuse Coach, Fires First Shot at the Bear
TflHIS season we havo been spared. Nr matter how good or bad an eleven may
be, no dark, dismal, gloomy stories havo been turned loose, ana wo nave been
led to believe that every man Is In shape to play. The game has not suffered and
tho opposing coaches havo not been fooled, for the "bear" stories seldom wcro
belloved anyway. There is an entirely different feeling In tho colleges and they
accept everything as It comes. For example. State has a light, lnoxperlenccd
eleven, but Coach Dick Harlow is not telling the world what kind of a team ho
has nor Is he making excuses. Berryman, at Lafayette, Is doggedly striving to
whip an eleven Into shapo and asks no sympathy. Tom Keady, at Lehigh, has
a tough Job on his hands, but is suffering In silence. It is tho proper spirit, for
tho world loves a game guy and appreciates what ho is up against.
Tho modern system was demonstrated to us when wo went out to tho Pitt
Syracuse gamo. The morning papers contained stories of tho Syracuse team,
featuring tho star tackle, "Ty" Cobb, who was supposed to be able to whip his
weight In wildcats. Other players wcro extolled and tho team said to be tho
strongest that ever woro the Orange and Blue. Before tho game we saw Buck
O'Neill, the coach, and said:
"How do you feel about today's game? You seem to have a pretty, good team
and should do better than last year."
"Don't you bellevo It," replied O'Neill. "Tho team Is in terrible shapo and
jh we will be lucky if wo don't get killed. Cobb is out of the game with a busted
Knee, several ui my oesi men arc on uie nospuai list ana mere are cxacuy
eleven players hero who can go through tho game. If any one gets hurt we are
dono for, becauso I havo no experienced man to take his place."
"But I read about Cobb and tho great team you hud," wo said. "What's the
idea? Why didn't you say something about It?"
"What's tho uso?" retorted Buck. "If wo camo out in tho newspapers that
wo had a gang of cripples no one would bellevo It, and anyway, I'm not looking
for sympathy. Wo will do tho best wo can, and If wo get murdered we will take
our Jnedlclne. I am not in favor of bear stories."
IT SO happened that Pitt expected a hard game and the Syracuse team
put up a hard fight throughout It was not a walkover by any means,
and for a gang of cripples O'Neill's men put up n, great bartle. As a
result, tho spectators wero pleased and thero was a feeling of satisfaction
all around. Bear stories wcro not needed in this case.
Syracuse-Broivn and West Virginia-Rutgers Are Big Games
iS THE season rolls into tho homestretch the various teams aro priming up
jy. for tho more important battles which are to bo decided later In tho month.
Tomorrow there are many good games on tho card, but Syracuse and Brown
and West Virginia and Rutgers top thj list. Penn plays Lafayctto on Franklin
Field, but this will not be very exciting. Brown and Syracuse should put vp a
great combat, as the teams aro evenly matched and tho Brunonlans Jumped Into
prominence last Saturday when they put over an unexpected wallop on Colgate.
This places Brown in tho foremost runk. for Colcato was surjoosed to havo ono
w of tho strongest teams in tho country. Syracuse, on the other hand, has her
cripples In shape and Is prepared to dispute her rival's claims to greatness.
, In Newark, N. J., the strong West Virginia team will havo a hard tussfe with
, 1 ., Foster Sanford's team from Itutgers. West Virginia is very good this year de-
ij, ' spite defeats at the hands of Pitt and Dartmouth. Pitt won by a hcoro of 14 to 9
'j ; and the Green eleven triumphed by tho slender margin of C to 2. The Moun-
v' talneors, however, defeated tho Navy, which Is considered qulto a feat. West
Virginia has made a wonderful record when one considers tho handicaps under
which she is playing. There aro no opponents near the college town and the
team is forced to travel hundreds of miles each week tomcet tho foe. Morgan
town is a hard place to get to and equally hard to como from. The trip to Han
over, N. II., was a tough ono, as was tho Journey Vto Annapolis. Now comes the
Itutgers trip, and tho players were forced to leave Jlorgantown last night to
arrive on time. Taking all things into consideration, Coaches Mclntyro and
Tobln have dono wonders with tho eleven this year and deserve all kinds of
credit. West Virginia should give Rutgers a hard battlo and has more than an
even chanco to win.
Stato will tako on Dartmouth, but this should not cause much excitement.
Harlow's team is composed mostly of new men and It is doubtful If they aro
working together as yet. A couplo of 140-pound halfbacks should not bo expected
to tear up a beefy line, and that's about tho weight of State's backfleld material.
Howover, it is sold that tho faculty lias used the hook on seven Dartmouth players,
and if such is tho case wo might havo a surprise thrust upon us. Perhaps Stato
may win. Who can tell?
Lehigh and Muhlenberg will settle their annual argument on Saturday and
this is a big game in the Lehigh Valley. Dr. Whltey Price has a good bunch this
year, having triumphed over Lafayotto last Saturday, and may repeat tomorrow.
Xelilgh was walloped by Pittsburgh early In the season, but the team may have
ft
.
i Improved a little.
GILMOR13 DBIE will send his scoring machlno at Annapolis against
Westorr Reserve, a college from Cleveland, O. The Westerners havo
not dona much this year, so the Sailors are not expected to have much
trouble Swarthraore meets Johns Hopkins and Vlllanova will clash with
Urslnus. '
A GAME which should bo hard fought and show some regular football will be
put on at Bhlbe Park, tomorrow afternoon, when the Marines line up against
the officers rora Camp Meado. The Marines havo been strengthened consider

CHARLES EVANS
The Long Drive
ONE of tho prettiest plays In the game of
golf Is tho drive, and thcro is a chanco
to play with tho wooden club at least four
teen times on each acrage eighteen holes.
It can easily bo seen, therefore, that driv
ing well In a very
Important part of
the game, and In
my estimation It is
the easiest part
In ono sense It Is
strange what a pia
filon golfers hae
for long drUes. We
aro all -ery proud
of any achievement
along that lino and
I know how I
swelled with anlty
when some one tukl
me last week-end
that I had driven
on a certain hole at
Tlno Valley farther
than any ono had
dono before.
The drhe with
the wooden club is
the fullest stroke and tho general Idea Is
to get distance. A player, howeer, Is
likely to forget that It Is better to bo con
sistent than to get a long ball off tho tec
on several holes, and then perhaps top a
Bhot, only occasionally getting a good
straight ball down the course.
Usually I consider the" long driver the
easiest player In the world to win from.
i:erybody tells him how wonderfully well
he drhes, and In consequence he Is forcing
almost every shot. Of course, tho more
strength put Into a shot tho more distance,
If a very big If, too there Is the necessary
rhythm. An old man who drives only 100
or 12E yards down the course usually can
beat the college boy who hooks and slices
!C0 or majbo 275 yards.
Long Drive is Full of Thrills
As far as the actual result of tho hole. I
am sure It makes no difference to me
whether my opponent outdrives me or not.
but there Is a delightful thrill when you
see your ball ahead of the other fellow's. I
was both surprised and dellgh'ted recently
at Columbus, O, to And that I was out
driving Walter Hagen, even though he said
he wasn't hitting them Bqudrely. My par
ticular pleasure arose from the conscious
ness that he could drive better than ho was
doing that day and tho fact that ho Is a
better driver than I am. in fact, I think
that Walter Hagen has the best wooden
club shot of any American player today.
It is a high, all-carry ball that goes always
about 250 yards. On a hard, baked course
there are some players who can drive fur
ther than he, but they cannot on soft, well
bunkered ones. Ills tee shot would bo Ideal
on the difficult links abroad, for he can
control his tee shot, while no ono can con
trol tho run at the end of a long flight.
Jesse Guilford Is famous for his terrific
long tee shots. Ho has been called tho
New Hampshire Siege Gun. Strange to
say, however, I have never happened to see
him drlvo his long balls. In his match with
Gardner at Merlon last fall the latter out
drove him continually and I doubt If any
player In the country can consistently out
drive Robert Gardner.
Jock Hutchinson drives a very long ball
and a mention of a littlo thing he does is
not amiss In this article. When ho Is going
with the wind he places his ball, pointing
upward, on the sand tee; when going
against tho wind It Is placed pointing down
ward. Many things enter Into a long drive, but It
Is largely a matter of being "right" on cer
tain occasions. All good golfers hit the ball
as hard as possible, but It Is the union of
rhythm with the hard hitting that gets the
distance.
His Longest Drive is 400 Yards
Numerous times I have been asked tho
length of the longest drive I have over made.
I think I have driven more than 400 yards
downhill, with the wind behind me and over
hard ground. These three things make test
ing questions for a drive, but pretty and
satisfying as It Is, do not place too much
emphasis on the length of your drive.
In Dngldnd there Is a player named Ed
ward Dlackwell, a very large, muscular
man, who drives a ball with enormous force
a great distance. In 1904 a slightly built
man from America beat tho same Dlackwell
In the finals of the British champlonshlD.
Reports of the match say that Travis was
outdriven as much as 150 yards on some
boles, but we all know who won.
There are very few examples of the
strong, long-driving golfer winning our
championships. On some of our courses
these days there are holes needing very
long wooden club shots to get home, and in
many other Instances in present-day golf
a long drive Is of great benefit, but It must
never be sacrificed to the exclusion of con
sistency and direction.

COLLEGE SPIRIT IS THING TO APPLAUD
THIS FALL AND VICTORIES ON FIELD
WILL NOT COUNT SO MUCH IN TOTAL
Scores of Players in Khaki and Teams Made of
Green Men Deserve More Credit Than
Those With All the Regulars
By GIUNTLAND RICE
The Big Game
Not for a pennant of blue or gold,
Not for a precious cup;
Not for a name when the tales arc told
Where men of the sport world sup;
This is a game where the balls arc lead
Runs are the inches won;
This is a game tvherc the best lie dead
After each inning's done.
Some of the players may sec it through
Knowing the best and worst;
Some must go out while the game t3 netv,
Dying ere they reach first;
Some, broken bodied, but whole and brave ,
Of soul, from the panic will drop
Fragments of men that thedoctors save,
Gleanings from death's rich crop.
Some of them, brothers of yours and mine,
March to the field today; ,
Soon they will stand in the foremost line
Facing the last big play;
Still we must cheer through the thoughts of that,
Smile, though the spirit chafe,
Wtifsper to each s he goes to bat
"God grant you may reach home safe!"
H. VARLEY.
THU thing to applaud In football this
season Is not victory, but the spirit of
thoso colleges willing to iarry on against
every odd, minus material and any chance
to win. Victory Itself will mean nothing
(Whatsoever this beason, due to the fact that
certain elevens have returned veterans
where others havo sent their entire rosters
into khaki and the battlo line. Football, en
couraged at all army camps, now the big
aimy game, was badly needed at every col
lege, so those who h.ivo overcome tremen
dous handicaps to get any bort of team Into
tho field deserve most of the credit.
No, You Never Can Tell
We have heard Kidding H. Yost figure In
advance upon a strong eleven for more than
ono season, only to havo all Joy knocked
out of Hfo by class defections, Injuries and
ten or seventeen other details.
This beason Yost looked for no great
strength In his Michigan team. Most of his
veterans had entered tho service. There
was nothing pink about Wolverine pros
pects. Whereupon Michigan buddenly breaks
out into the highway and begins trampling
down everything in bight, including Ne
braska's husky squad. Or, as Colonel Wal
tcr J Travis remarked to us one day, "In
tho porting whirl ono can never tell when
he Is well oft or when he isn't"
Football Lure
Football surely holds the old guard In
line We think of Walter Johnson, IWdle
Clcotte and Hal Chase as veterans, but they
are mere debutantes compared to A. A
Stsgg, Hurry-Up Yost. Foster Sanford, J.
W Helsman and others, who havo been
coaching for more than twenty years. And
they seem to get keener nbout the game
as the years drift by. Football has a cer
tain dash and color that no other game
has, barring polo. And It carries pobslblll
ties for strategy and team play beyond any
of the lot barring none of them.
It Is this matter of tactics and strategy,
In the main, which holds tho lure to the
veteran coach for so long. In this respect
It is the next thing to war.
Carrying On
Cupid Black, captain of the 1916 Yale
eleven, expects to pick up where he left
off last season-l. e., on, top of the football
heap.
Black Is now with tne navai reserve at
No-vport. from which citadel ie will launch
one of tho best machines In the country,
Including Barrett, of Cornell; Schlachter,
of S.vracuse; Gherlsh, of Dartmouth, and
stars from Michigan and other points west
The Newport motto, according to Cnntaln
Black, will shortly be as follows: "Kindly
get out of the road or leave something to
help remove the debris."
You Understand How It Is
A Itole or loob'fll stand or, but
I never cared much for a mutt.
Aside from "Informal football." the only
thing Informal about some of the golf we
have seen this Bummer is the variety of
the language employed In bunkers and
cuppy lies.
Many are called, but few who nre have
better than a small pair.
Connie Mack may havo made a wise
move In selling Eddie Collins. But if we
ever own a ball club and have a Collins
on It we'll sell Collins the day after we've
sold the franchise and the ball park.

HIGH COST OF GOLF GOES HIGHER '
AS RESULT OF WAR TAX, AND EVEN
THE NINETEENTH HOLE SUFFERS
Golf Balls Advanced Ten Cents, Golf Clubs a Half
Dollar, and Members Must Pay Ten Per
Cent of Yearly Dues Additional
By PETER PUTTER
WHEN you step on the first tee tomorrow
ntldtalce fhn wronnlnir nff the ntW ball
you have Just bought from tho professional
you will find that It has cost you ten cents
more than It did a week ago. After you
havo teed It up and made a savage swing
at It, broken your driver and you walk
over to tho professional's shop you will
find that a new driver will cost you a half
dollar more than It did a week ago. If you
happen to be playing with the secretary or
treasurer of your club you will learn that
you and all tho other members have been
taxed ten per cent of your yearly dues.
Later In tho day, when you drop In the
nineteenth hole, the only hole which we all
play In par, and where there Is no topping,
but plenty of tipping, and where there Is
no outbounds and no slicing and pulling,
you will learn that the price of the liquids
that are set before vou have advanced In
tho list month or two from fifteen cents to
a quarter, nnd perhaps thirty cents. And
then you will begin to realize, it you have
never before, that golf 13 a fairly expensive
game.

W. D. Plunkett Dies Suddenly
Some time In September W. n. Plunkett,
a Massachusetts millionaire, gave a pro!
fesslonal tournament under the auspices of
A. If. Flndlay. who constructed an eight-een-hole
course at Mr. Plunkett's summf
home In Hartswellville. Vt. It Is known
as the Kllknre Country Club. Thoje were

won by Mike Drady with ' S, Our own
Jim Barnes was second with 301.
Mr. Plunkett took a trip south last week
to visit somo of his cotton plantations and
on his return home died In the train In
Ohio. Tho news of his death will be's
great shock to the .professionals who playtd
over his course, ns he was very popular
with them nnd was greatly liked. Jim
Barnes. In speaking of It, said: "With .all
the other professionals, I regret to htar
this cad news. Mr. Plunkett gave us-a
splendid tlmo last summer and no oris
could have been nicer. In Bplte of his
great wealth he was very democratic. He
was nn enthusiastic golfer and he enjoyed
having us nt his country place ns much
as we enjoyed playing there. Golf hil
lost a very kind friend In Mr. Plunkett."

Why do I havo to add air to my
Urea every ten days or boT G. M.
The ordinary round or cylindrical
Inner tube is very thin. To fill tho
pear-shaped cavity of tho outer casing
the round thin tube must be inflated
out of its own shape and size and un
evenly strained. Air-sccpnge is tho
result. Not only Jess Becpage, but less
tiro trouble of every sort, occur to tho
Rhinos tubes, because they are double
thick and. built to fit tho outer cas
ing cavity. Being "tho exact shapo
and full size of tho cavity, tho
llhlnos is not stretched when in
flatcd and in use. It is .evenly com
pressed against the casing by inter
nal air-pressure. It not only holds
air, but adds to the strength and
weight-carrying capacity of the outer
tire. It is on Inner protection as well
as a reinforcement of the outer sen-lee
of they tire.
What is the standard or basis of
air-pressure for tlresT 11. T.
The standard adopted by most
manufacturers Is two times tho diam
eter of the tire. For Instance, a
3V4-lnch tire should carry 70 pound,
and a 4-Inch tiro should carry to
pounds. This applies to the use of
tho ordinary inner tubes. When
llhlnos are used the air-pressure
should be 10 to IS per cent less than

INNERTUBES
Because They Are Strong
A Rhinos adds some of
the strength of an outer
casing to the service of an
inner tube.
Rhinos nro linndmndo, doublc-tlucknesa, doublc-wcichf,
high-grade rubber, reinforced by toughened Egyptian fabric laylred
nside the rubber, the same as in nn outer casing. They nre built
in tho same shape as an outer casing and formed exactly to fit tho
casing cavity. They are equipped with "Rhinos Liquid Puncture
Self-bealer," which automatically seals any ordinary puncture with-
Jihinos can't make lad tires good,
but they pxake good Urea better.
