. Oliphant Failed Against Notre IDame
MOVIE OP A GOOD. SOFT LEAD PENCIL
T
TX WILL be recalled without muc.li effort that Walter Johnson, the best pitcher
lrftheAmerlcun League, has been unable to make a pennant winner out of
tho AVsoJllnrftftVi club. Also, while the recollecting Is Rood, we find thut Grover
Cleveland Alexander, premier twlrler of the National League, failed to shove tho
" i'hlllleS Jn(d the world scried In the last two year. These two cases uro cited not
to rev'lve tho' baiteball seasyn. but to ("how In u way Just how Important an Indi
vidual jitar Is lo n team. We have tai-H In football as well ns baseball, and borne
Btand out as prominently at Johnson and Alexander. The only difference Is that
tho fan expects'tho Krldlron heroes to go out and win tho Rumes single-handed
nd overcome all opposition with a simple twist of tho wriit. He believes the
stellar players are. supermen und nothing can Htop them. Tor that leason we
read of Oliphant, of tho Army; Oeorgo McLaren, of Pitt; Hero, of Pennj lloynton,
of Williams, and others and think It strange If the teams lose when they are In
the game.
V A player must have ability to stand out above the utheis, but It must be
remembered that the other men on the team make It possible for a star to shine.
Kor cxampleKQllphant made some brilliant open-field runs last year, but McKvvan
always, rannhead and knocked off the tacklers. Ileriy. has made sumo lirllllant
runs, but what could he do without the support of the other players? McLaren
W the greatest plunging- fullback In the country, but without u strong line to
open holes for him he would find It dlllleult to gain ground. It is the suppoitlng
cast that imlUes a star, so Oils one-man team IiW Is slightly cnoneolis.
In the olden days Jt was customary to fiulid a team around one man. And
Bmlth, IJ1I1 llollenbnck. lloy Mercer and others at Penii were thu pivots, and
Ted toy, Ned Muhan and C'hailey Uurrett were other examples. These men
. seemed to bo the principal attack of their teams, hut, as was said before, they
wer6 aided by the other ten men on their side.
AWELL-UALANCKD team, without any particular shining llRht, alvvajs
will beat a team with ouo or two well-advertised players. Tho 1 oa&on
for this la that the Btars are watched closely, while the other men art
allowed to get away. Wo remember one I'enn-Mlchlg.in game when
Johnny Carrels was the star of the Wolverines. Penn watched Carrels
from the start, bent two and thoee men at him each time and when ho
was stopped the I led find Blue won the game. Too much dependence was
placed on one man. and It has been praved repeatedly that tho sjstcm Is
all wrong.
Despite Oliphant' Good Playing the Army Lost to Notre Dame
OLIPHANT starred in every game played by the Army this fall and his team
mates began to believe he was Invincible. livery time they got Into a hole
Oliphant was culled upon to deliver, and ho made good. Hut there's many a slip
In a football .season and West Point found this to be true last Saturday. Notre
Damn had a good team and It stopped the sturdy fullback. This demoralized the
Eoldlers to a certain extent and took away some of their confidence. As a lesult
the westerners won by a small score.
It Is dlfllcult to get u good field geucial. Quarterbacks these lujs can call
,. the signals beautifully, but seldom do they hit on the proper plays. After study
ing their work we are led to believe that they give the plas they remember,
rvgardless of their- effect. Ono day a quarterback gave the signal for u fake
place kick when his team was on Its own 15-yard line, und seemed surprised when
it was smeared. Now when a star is on the team, the quarterback gets Into the
habit of calling on him for almost every other play. Ho gets the Idea that the
no man Is tho only ground ralncr and unconsciously builds his i.ttack around
him. Then when the opposing team smothers the good player the man calling
the signals is through. He cant think of any one else to carry the ball and all of
the confidence oozes out of him.
George McLaren is ihe star of the Pitt team because he can crash into the
line, keep his feet and squirm through for gulns ranging from three to llfteen
yards. He always is good for a couple of yards In a pinch; hut If he Is stopped,
Warner's men will loso CO per cent of their strength.
.
WE AHE not opposed to having good players on team. That is not
the Idea. We believe, however, that too much confidence should not be
placed on ono or two men In the big games. There aro eleven men on'
each team, nnd those players. If they do the work they are supposed to
Mo, will come mighty c lose- to winning all of the battles. A smoothly run
ning machine Is more effective than un attack and defense which Is domi
nated by one man.
Georgia Tech Has Something to Say About Her Football Team
WHEN we printed Coach Hafftery's opinion of the Georgia Tech team last week
following its victory over Washington and Lee, It started something below the
Mason and Dixon line. Uafftery's views dlh not take very well, and It was claimed
that he .was a poor loser. This is a wrong Impression, and In Justice to the Wash
ington and Lee coach, it should be corrected.
In the first place, Mr. Rafftery only gave his own opinion utter watching Tech
defeat his own team by the score of 63 to 0. He said there were many elevens In the
North that could defeat the Southerners, but that does not mean It could be done.
It was only one man's opinion, and others may think differently. At any rate.
H took considerable nerve on Hafftery's part to admit that Georgia Tech was
not so good as she was cracked up to be. Another coach probablv would have
praised Iho victorious team to the skies and say that his team was beaten by
the score of 63 to 0 because It went up against the greatest eleven in tho world.
Mr. Rafftery frankly admits the weakness of his team and has a perfect right
to state his views. Because he says Tech s not a very good team does not mean
that he Is divulging a terrible secret and Georgia Is getting by on an inflated
reputation. We know such Is not the case and, anyway, difference In opinion
happens even In the best regulated of families, Georgia should not feel offended
If some one criticizes her team. Criticism cannot spoil the splendid record she
is making.
v The Tech team, with the exception of Guyon, Is composed of native Geor
gians. Guyon comes from New Mexico. Eleven members of the football sq,uad
are under military age, three have been rejected and five others plan to Join
the colors after the football season Is over. Of last year's squad twenty-two tren
aro In the service of Uncle Sam, among them being twelve letter men. Two
et the coaches. Clay and Alexander, also have Joined the colors. Thus It cun
be seen tfiat'Gcorgla'Tech Is doing her bit this year and playing good football
besides.
.
JOHN HEISMAN, the coach, Is an old Penn man, und one of the best
In the business. He Is a thorough Instructor and Is said to make blue
prints of all his plays, showing their development at various stages. The
team Jumped Into prominence In tho North when It walloped Penn. 41 to 0,
and many of the fans would like to beo Tech In action. And Just because
tho Georgia team Is famous, It Is criticized. That's tho answer.
Cornell Team Cannot Be Spoiled by the Draft
COACH At. SHAnPE need have no' fear of losing any of this year's varsity play
ers through the draft. Without exception, Cornell has the youngest football
team In years,jind tho average age should make her opponents feel ashamed of
:V themselves. Ben Uouther at center and Ackerknecht ut tackle are tho only two
4 members eligible for military duty. The latter was rejected because of joor eyesight
anp lleumer nas no yex oeen cuueo. oirauss at guard and Pendleton at fullback
are the yoqrtgest men on the squad.; being barely eighteen years old. Harrt a
i guard, and JJerrlman, tackle, are nineteen, and Van Horn, Hoffman and Nether

froth eighteen tp twenty, It, can be" seen thatCornell has a youthful siuad this
j'ear but that Is not all. Tho team Is very light, only two men pushing tho beam
over the 200-ponnd mark, arid they are on the second team. Elsenbrandt Is the
lightest man with. 14S, und Nethercott, the speedy back, weighs but 149 pounds.

The Hardest and Easiest Clubs
PROBABLY no subject Is more generally
debated whenever golfers gather for a
"fanning bee" than which clubs are most
dlfllcult to master and which easiest.
No one can la down any fixe'1 dictum
on this mooted golf
point, for certainly
some players tako
naturally to somo
clubs and call for
others only after
some hesitation. But
there are some very
interesting general
views which I shall
sot down as 1 see
"them after nomi
years of Btudy and
observation of golf
and golfers here and
abroad.
All of us have golf
friends who have
taken a fancy to
some particular club
naV.nna heeHUHA the
CUAIILES EVANS 'f'e", n"nd baIance of
It appeals to them and they have made
some good shots with It. That club is to
them the easiest cluh to use because they
hae confidence in. It. Believing in the
club, they actually can get rpsults from It.
Let a player doubt'a club and when using
It his mind Is likely centered op this doubt
and pot on the ball, with the result that
the flub does the worst he expected. Bev
eral years ago I casually picked up a
rnashle In a store, more to .be dolne some
thing than with any idea of buying, as I
was well supplied, at the time. But the
minute I gripped that club and got the
feel of It I knew I had Bomet.hinr I wairted.
It Just suited me. Why. I hwdly know;
but t did me great service till it finally
went to golf club heaven and live never
ceased to mourn for it.
FoV most players probably the easiest
golf shot Is the drive. There are few play,
era of any degree of expertness who cannot
get pretty fair results.-fn this department
of golf. One reason for this probably is
that 'the player is Usually not bound down
. .nlmnrh ifrcuracv as in other shots and
hence gets more freedom and confidence
Into the play Another is that he can hit as
hard as he likes.
Most BUthcTltfes agree that the simplest
shotMs the putt, but that Is far from saying
that to bp d good putter is simple. The
number pf really great puttera golf has
produced If surprisingly fcmall. Of course,
golf a a really popular uport ,ln the States
even In Oreat Iliitaln tho list is not a long'
one. While putting is simple in theory it
seems to call for a paitlcular combination
of mental qualities. Vardon, with his super
lative skill in other departments, was never
a great putter, although for some years he
was very ffqod Of all the shots on u courso
plajers probably differ In skill mostly en
the putt.
'n tho hardest shots the full iron to
the pin is most dlllleult. I have observed
fewer players who are expert at this shot
t.iun any other. This may be because of the
tendency to develop play with wooden clubs
at the expensq of Iron. Another reason Is
that, on this, shot the element of control en
ters Into the play very decidedly. For it
such a shot, calling for, say, 150 yards. Is
played too hard or too easy, the ball is
usually trapped,
I would say, then, that the hardest shot
Is the full Iron to the pin and the easiest
the drive.

Just as certain as the Kaiser eventually
will draw his unconditional release, the
whole minor league baseball map of the
United States Is going to be rcdlstricted
when tho annual meeting of the National
Association of Professional Baseball
Leagues occurs at Louisville, starting No
vember 13.
Leagues which will undergo wholesale
changes In the redistribution df territory
aro:
American Association, Class AA,.
International League, Class AA.
Pacific Coast League, Class AA.
Western League, Class A.
Southern Association, Class A.
New York State League, Class B.
Kastern Leaguq, Class li.
Northwestern League, Class B.
Western Assentation. Class t.
Other leagues, too, may undergo changes,
but the above circuits are the principal
ones to be Involved.
The most radical change centers around
the American Association nnd the Inter
national, and it Is- this chango which will
force supplementary changes In the West
ern and In which Omaha and Nebraska Is
largely Interested.
Certain cities now In the American As
sociation will band with certain other
cities now- occupying International terri
tory. This9 is the rolling stone which will
precipitate a real avalanche nnd shake the
National Association ,to Its roots. Tho
whole complexion of the minor league map
will be changed.
Tho dopo sheet cills for Indianapolis,
Toledo. Columbus and Louisville, of tho
American Association, to link with Balti
more, Newark, Buffalo and Toronto, of tho
International, in a new league. This league.
It Is said, will eventually become a third
major league.
Minneapolis, St. Taul, Milwaukee and
Kansas City will remain as a nucleds to a
new American Association, or pcrnaps they
will call it the Western League. To these
four cities will bo added Omaha, Des
Moines, St Joseph o;id perhips Peoria. Or
it is possible this will be a six-club league,
with Peoria and St. Joseph out of it. As
signment of territory in this league is In
definite and will not bo known until tho
meeting gets under way.
Of the International cities, Proyldence, it
is said, is slated for a berth in the Kastern
League? This league then will be ad
vauced to Class A, Rochester will go to
bolster up the' faltering New York State
League. Montreal will drop out of sight,
as probably will Richmond.
The new Western Association will con
sist of Joplln, Wichita and Topeka, cast-off
Western League territory, with Oklahoma
City, Tulsa and bther Western Association
towns. This league probably would be ad
vanced from Class D lo Class B.
