Yesterday's game was hard fought and played under the werM peihle
conditions. The icy field made it impossible te gain consistently, and the snow
made the Pall tee slippery for nintij forward pusses, but during the rnhrc
ixty minutes of play both side fought hard. The bet learn mm, but niaiiv
of the spectators believe (iilberten would have had u better cliance en a li)

The game was arranged because it wa u sort of u holiday up here and

players by surprise. The ball had see-sawed un and down the field, and
Gilberton. getting the ball in It own territory punted.
The ball sailed "0 jard and hit the ground. A (Jilberten player touched
it and then walked hh.iv. (Julek a a Hash I.lthgew gathered the oval in
Ha arms and ran for a touchdown.
This play has net happened te my knowledge In nny college game this
year, because the plaer were taught hew te play It. If a member of the
kicker's side touches (he hall it doe. net mean that the ball is dead. Ft Is
an offside piny, but the ether ide has a chance te run with it and then de
cline the penalty. Coaldale did thi and scored the first touchdown.
After that the big Oreeu team, using the famous I?lue Hemier te crnek
through the line and I.lthgew, Ilerrin and (timer te circle the end and
plunge off tackle, carried the ball steadily tewaid the (Iilberten goal line. At
the end of the first period the pig-kin ivn en the (i-jard line, and en the first
plsy of the second quarter lit nor plunged through for a touchdown. (Jar

Ollberten ceenied (e be outplayed. The light bikn could net held their
xect and many times were thrown ler a
5 superb punting of Captain (lettschnll that kept the ball in Cealdalc's
ltery and prevented mere scoring.
The crowd was very much excited and quite inquisitive. They insKted
,'ettlng n close-up en the play, and no one can blame them for that. Some Seme
is the spectators formed a ring around the noble athletes and cheered them
There was no trouble, only once, when two of the players Heney Hey
ins ami (J. Zuby play fully threw each ether around. This caused par
nB of both sides te step en the field and give a free exhibition of hew te
.jjy a football game without wearing soft bandages en the hand.

THE intermission was welcomed by the athlete, and after the field had
been cleared the game was resumed Coaldale get the ball, the pla.iers
hook bunds, stepped back and went at It again.
Hecause of the crowd and the difficulty In having them witness the con
test from long range, the plajers decided d keep en playing and net have an
Intermission between the hahes. This was something unusual and the first
time we ever have seen It done. When the second period ended Captain
Gottschall went te the referee nnel said :
"Let's keep en playing. I will receive the ball down here."'
He pointed te the end of the field which hud n coating of lee but no
new en It, and Captain (larland. of Coaldale, kicked off from the -10-yard
line, which, like the ethers, was lined with coal dust.
Then came the big surprise, (iilberten took en a new leape. of life and
played the open game. They discarded their line attack, which had failed in
the first half, and ran the ends. The hip ball was worked better than we
ver liae seen It worked before. A spread formation was used, with thn
quarterback, Foulk, behind the center. Manic, the left end, would rush
around, take the ball anil then pass It te Sheehan for a reverse play.
The next time he would keep en going, but held the ball In one hand
nd hide it behind his hack. He fooled Coaldale three limes in n row and
brought the ball te scoring distance Then l'eulk tossed a forward pass te
Houlihan, who caught It in the Held of play and disappeared in the crowd at
the goal linn. Oettschall kicked goal and the period ended.
Coaldale get the ball In the fourth period and never lest it. They would
make a first down and then wait until the crowd left the field, This was
repeated several tlmen and the ball was carried te the -1-yard line. Here
Gilberton braced and threw Henner ter a less. Time was getting short,
darkness was setting In and the crowd was getting closer.

It came. The referee refused te allow It, but before nn argument could

WE HEAIt a great deal during clinin- j
lii'insliin contests nheut nutting
heing the feature which lescj and wins'
matches, nnd during these (imes we
wonder if we should net pay mere etten- '
Hen te our putting than te nny ether
stroke in the game. '
There is no doubt thnt the putting'
stroke Is the most simple, but it is nlse
the most treacherous, fur coupled with
the necessity te judge distance m-cu-
t"'". ""'' ""Y "uv0 n"mr;v "' ,'r llln
lay of the loud, se te speak. I
rrt, t. . 1
This would bring us te the conclusion
that if the stroke is se simple It must
be the outside factors which make (he
ihet e difficult.
Utopian Orevns
If putting greens v ere nlitelulelv
level, and tlie giei'iis uiiifei ml.v slew or
fuct. then we would all be geed putters,
for all we would have te e would lie te
gauge the dilnnce. Everj si-l'oe pull
would be hit In the same wav, evcrv
three-feet putt would require a uniferiu
t-treke, and iu this w.-tv net enlv would
the putting stroke In- simple, but put
ting Itself would be 11 cinch. Hut for
tunntely the grci us are nei Hm, mid
weather coudilieiis change a slew green
into a fast one overnight. "-,, nmt the
geed golfer must learn te lake these
factors inle consideration.
In England last spring the American
golfers found much difficulty en the put
ting greens, and It brought home the
fact tluil we vvere iu a fair vvnv liable
te be considered peer putters. The
greens were extremely fust, and I won
dered nt that time If mere practice 011
putting would net cinblc us te lake
M range conditions mere as lhe, come
and go.
In my last aitirle I hinted thai I
did net believe thai pullers arc born
and net made. I think that if a ht ht
seii lakes (hal view of the vvbv and
wherefore, of putting he is sure te be
a peer putter.

ike eicrjthing else, tnkes
J- practice
before elltelencv can be '
guaranteed, and because putting leeks 1
se simple we feel that we are wasting
our time, te put In an hour or se of
putting. ,
Sotne of the leading prefcs-drumls, '
when commenting en their own mku
putting, will say that there is no spe- 1
elal mi) te leach it. Tln-,v sny putting
is tin art, thnt it is tlie one stroke in
golf where lndlv liliutlit.v is licensed, and
eeiiseipjeiitl.v if thej have a pupil who Is
putting fairly well, but in nrrible form,
lie Is net corrected, which in all proba
bility causes his gnme never te improve.
Kefenued Putler
Inuies Hrald is alwavs mentioned n
an example of n reformed putter, lie i
new- considered one of tip1 linesl iut
ters, but nt one time he etijeved the
, r,.pt.me f )0
a verv peer putter.
It was net until he bad ln-en shown '
the fallacy of dragging his putts that he
reached the distinction of being such 11
geed putter. Hrald new rolls his putts,
and if he benefited through the 1 i--.ul t el
a change In his st.vle, surelj some of th"
Ieier lights in golf would de no harm
by following his example.
77ir .iimplest
n plain iciiil if n In drug thr hall
m n putt is te say that if after thr
ball is hit the putter gees into the
gieiind you am guilty of dragging.
1
P T1IH putter is tee high up in the'
hitting of the ball it causes thei ball
te be half topped, hut of the two the
dragging or the topping I believe, thai
It is easier te correct the. goiter who
luibitually tops.
Here we have en one hand the ball
which is hit tee high, musing u lop
and the ball which is hit loe low being
dragged, se half way between hlinuld b"
the cerrerr wav. In putting I am ,tus ,tus ,tus

and that in that the bull should be
addressed and lilt with the name p.nt of
the putter. '
I jddresa the ball with the putter se
that If the nwlng Is true the bull will
be hit almost with the 1 enter of tl.e
putter, or I might wiy a little neaier
the tee than the center of the cutter. I
If thn ball Is addressed with mm

I practically no applications turned down

The Hlg Three
BOX INC., baseball and football might
be classed as the Hlg Three of
jpnrt. in the way of drawing cards,
with racing well up in the list.
Ne matter what the seating capacity,
we doubt very inue-li that 111,000 would
ever pay out as much ns Sl.riOO.OOO te
see any one football or baseball game.
A big heavyweight International bod
ing championship would outdraw any
ether single program beyond eiucstien.
Yet .football would give even this
feature n hard run. Suppose Yale and
Harvard came te seme season where
Ihe.v steed out as the two greatest foot
ball machines of the country.
Suppose this game was recognized ns
n championship test, the winner te be
proclaimed ruler ef the gridiron from
Herkelcy te Cambridge.
At $.1 n seat, open te all comers. Ibis
game would undoubtedly draw 2.jO,000
spectators.
Ne single baseball game would ever
draw thin great crowd especially at
?.". n head.
If one ball game should happen te
decide a pennant rnce between New New
Yerk nnd Chicago, and the arena was
large enough, Ili',000 might flutter In
through the turnstiles nt normal prices.
Hut baseball, as a single gtnye card,
Is new below football, with Its dash,
color and deeper appeal.
rteving vs. Football
A HEAVYWEIGHT championship
fight that gave prospect of being
11 whirlwind nffelr at per neti -combatant
would till any stand I hat would
leave a view of the contest.
Hut n championship football gntue be
tween Harvard and Yale, or the Army
and Navj, would de about the same.
It would be a uccjc-nnd-tipck affair
between these two. Either would (ill up
the combined seating capacity of (he
Yule Hewl, Harvard Stadium, Prince
ton Stadium and the Pole Grounds.
If ou don't believe that football part
of It, ask the ticket managers nt West
Point, Annapolis, Yule and lltirvnid.
B
keeps It - grip and spreads its appeal.
And Ibis appeal 's spreading through
out the world." It Is well peewible that
wars of the future will give wa.v te tlie
athletic meetings of rival nations, with
iiilernallen.il spnrl showing where an
prciiiucj belongs.
