being known as the "here with the big hoofs." The common g.irdc
variety of names, you will agree Having visited among the wise birds
at the tracks in Maryland and New Yerk, however, we did net find a
"hunch" In these names. They ay th only man who ever beat the bookies
six times out of ten was the chap who played hunches.
1 SECOND glance at the program teas mere pieductive of hunches.

Beb White Hunch All Wrong
NOW the hunting season hereabouts opened Monday and thousands of
gunners were pul'lng a trigger en the wary quail. What better hunch
eeuld one ask se we imagined wc had placed six bits en Beb White,
though the seerecard told .is bis parentage was "unknown."
It is quite possible that Beb White still is hoofing it around that bau
tlful dumb-bell flat. All we knew Is that they rang in a ceupie of pest entries
, bearing the highfalutln names of Etolia and Patagonia. Etolia wen
by the time-wein nose. The equine probet-cl an Inch or two In the rear
belonged te Patagonia. Midnight wherc's the hunch in that name?
finished third. The time -as announced as 1:13 3-5, which Billy Recap
aid was very ceed.
Etolia didn't win without the Inevitable pretest a farmer always is
a David Harum at heart, suspicious of his nrighber where horses arc con
cerned It was claimed that Charles Longhettom, who entered the hess, didn't
own him, as was required by the ru'es But Agrlcu turl'i Longhettom quickly
previd ewnership: also that the jeckev was his own sun. And that was that.
If Henry Ferd and the financing companies had net made nutomeblles
M easy of attainment we'd draw an imaginary pirturi- of the I.e iglmttem
family driving te church next Sabbath day, Etolia between the shafts
wearing the new harness which had been purchased for him with the $7.1
purse which his victory netted his owner. As It Is. all we can give the vic

GOLF TOURNAMENT
AT SW IS LAST
Atlantic City Club's Event Will
Be the Season's
Wind-Up
DATES NOVEMBER 2, 3 AND 4
By SANDY MeNIHIJCK
GREETINTiS!
This is said with heaving besom
te .myriads of local golfers by the
writer, who Is once mere back en the
job. The doctors have just made their
farewell speech, in which they seemed
surprised te sec us looking at the world
and net at the grave.
They laughingly explained that a
geed golfer was supposed te hole out.
Te which our comeback was that we
were net near the hole Just bunkered.
Any great golfer can have the same
evperlence as we had get knocked off
when the season starts nnd come back
w hen It s ever.
, We put something ever, however,
j for the season Is net ever. There is
stlP another golf tournament here-
about, and it premises te bk .1 h ne
We refer te the fall, tournament of the
Country Club of Atlnntlc '!t There
Is plenty of time te get set for the
date, as announced b one of the bis
etlii mis down there, are November 2. 3
and 4.
This is set down for the reason that
plentv of local talented Hnksmen have
the idea thnt there will net be a va-
herc fa' I tournament because the I in-1
weed Ceuntrj Club gave one down there
tin' first part of this month, their nrt.
But the Atlantic City club's fall tour teur
ne.v I tee much of nn affair te abandon,
and the Nerthficld officials say they
will held their tourney as usual. Alse
thnt it will be better than ever.
This means the prize list is most
premising, that the course will he snap-
pier than ever nnd that everything will
be done te make It a snappv wlnd-up of I
a snappy sea en en local links. I
The tournament was held slightlv '
earlier last year. The gonfn'en wns
epped b Nerman Mnvwell. the young- I
ish Whitemarsh satellite, who first of
all tied with Maurice Rlslcy. a cob of
sand at the seashore ce'trse. for the
twent --e.-en-hole medal with 122
tiekcs per each Then Maxwell waded,
through te the fina' round of match)
pla in the first .sixteen, where he '
Mimped head-en Inte Tshn R adle then
of Cedar' reek. Se thnt n pair of locals
met in the final round.
Beth plaers put en plenty of stuff
in the old same and came te the linlh
of the eiehteenth all square. Max
well wen the tuckus en the nineteenth,
when Read'e missed n short putt, but
the cheering for the 'eser was a hearty
as it was for the winner.

Puts Pep In Squad
The nppcarar.ee of Mr. Pepper en the

team with worlds of pep. After his
speech the squad romped through the
rudiments like u crowd of colts let
loose.
The scrimmage drill between the
varsity ind junior varsity seuad was
fnll of fight. Ilelsman used McGraw,
King, Hamilton and Greve In the var
sity backfield at the start and nfter
ward sent Al Vegelln into the fray. The
varsity scored two touchdowns. Mc
Graw and King crossing the junior
line, lerward passes proved the scor
ing medium.
Al Brewer. who has been perform
ing at fullback for the juniors, dis
played varsity caliber during the drill.
He made several big gains ngnlnst the
vnrelty in iddltien te pleying well en
the defense.
Eddie Farrell, the New Yerk lad,
who was etpected te be one of the
main cogs In the backfield this season,
may net be able te plav this year. He
contracted 11 itrange fever two weeks
age thnt left him weak. .Since then an
examination revealed that he must have
his tonsils lemeved. According te one
of the coaches, he will net be available

Germantown Friends', Last
Year's Champions, Score
Overwhelming Victory
BETTY CADBURY A STAR
The curtain lifted en girls' hockey
yesterday afternoon, wncn Germantown
Friends defeated the eleven represent
ing Miss Cakins' school, 15 te 0.
The Friends' Scheel girla registered
an overwhelming victory. They showed
far superior teamwork ; they seemed
able te take the hall away from their
opponents whenever they wanted te;
they hit harder and truer. Yet the girls
from Miss Casklns' school always fought
back. They were in the game from the
start, and were plucky if badly pun-
,.,i..i' M.,tinr.
I ne school, which was known in ether
,ber 3, and the team waa formed only
two days age. All of the girls, save
f'nntaln Lewell, gout tender, nnd Miss
uangehlnk. were newcomers. Naturnll;
they lacked the teamwork thnt is as big
a factor in field hockey as it ia in any
ether sport.
Germantown Veterans
The Germantown cirls are an all-rtnr
outfit. Seven of the team were members
of the seuad that last year wen the
chamnienshlD of the Private Scheel
League, xney nnished the season in a
tie with the Irwin Scheel, and wen the
plny-eff, hence they can be regarded
as veterans.
The star of the same was Betty Cad
bury. This voting center forward was
nil ever the field, sheeting from difficult
angles, a bu'wark en hi th offense and
defense. She scored "thirteen of the
fifteen goals which tells mere than an
entire column could de.
Captain Ruth Pearson, nt inside
right, and Louise Geedman, the center
halfback, aUe tallied goals. As a mat
ter of fact, all of the girls did excep excep
tienally fine work, nnd their team
play was excellent. They have been
champions In the last two years of the
league's existence. At present there
are five elevens contending for honors
Germantown Friends, Miss Caskins'
Scheel, Friends' Select, Mary Lyens'
Scheel and Sprlngslde.
Mary Lyens Wins
The ether contest of the day was
between elevens of the Mary Lyens'
Scheel nnd Friends' Select nt Swarth
more. It was the reverse of the Ger Ger
miihtewn Cabins' game, in that only
one goal was scored. The fray wns
close nnd the decision always in doubt.
In the game at Queen lane the ball
was net in Germantown's territory a
single time, and Miss Murray, at goal,
had a sinecure. In the Lyens-8elect
fray the scrimmage shifted continually
from one end of the field te the ether.
The only goal wan registered by Miss
Slean, and Friends' Select just missed
tying the count in the final thirty sec
onds of play.
Their second team made the day a
unanimous success by defeating the
Select Reserves, 2 te 0.

Princeton's Chances
Sarazen'a Price
Pitt as a' Leser
rBRB will be no pleasant tete-a-tete when Princeton athletes face Coleie
en the afternoon of October 28 nt Stage Field.
Chicago is out for two straight, which would be a large and fluffy featntr
In the chapeau of Alonse Stagg and perhaps the most brilliant one.
It will probably be the last meeting between the two Institutions, for
Princeton has entered with Tale and Harvard Inte an agreement, effective
January 1, 1023, which prohibits games calling for long and expensive trips.
Last year, the Maroen maulers came te Tigertown trifle underrated. The
dope was that Princeton would win after a hard battle, but nevertheless would
win. This advance "info" proved ns straight as Mr. Mitten's Reute Ne. 31
through Franclsvllle. Chicago came through with a 9-0 triumph.
Only sis of the eleven athletes who battled against the Tigers last season
will be seen In action this year. Coach Stagg has lest Rcdmen, and Magulrt,
all -Conference linemen; Crlsler, an end; nemney, the brilliant quarter, who
did all the 1021 scoring, and Cele, a halfback.
Yet the veteran tutor has another powerful eleven. The line Ii strong and
the fcackfield heavy and speedy. Chicago needed none of the trick plays for
which they were reputed te beat Princeton last year. Stagg mar use some et hit
mystery formation this year.
PARAGRAPHERS have overlooked a geed one. There's a substt- ,
tute lineman en the Swarthmore squad named Llmbtrger.
And New Yerk Pays the Price
NOW that Gene Sarazen has bed his appendix removed, he is attempting te
sweep aside any ether matter than mar trouble the life of a champion.
Fer instance, he has resigned from the Highland Gelf Club, of Pittsburgh,
se that he could be free te attach his name te n contract from a club financially
able te offer him a salary in accordance with his reputation.
' The Highland Gelf Club hasn't a chance of competing with metropolitan
organizations for Sarazcn's services. One offer tendered the world's champion
Is for $20,000 yearly with "privileges."
The "privileges" mean that Gene will be able te tour the country for
exhibitions and will net be bothered with the usual duties of a club professional.
Sarazen really belongs te New Yerk. He made bis start there, but until be
wen the national open, Father Knickerbocker would hnve none of him.
When he was out of a job, there were none open for him In New Yerk, but
Pittsburgh took bim In. New that Sarazen is a chomp, New Yerk would take
him back.
This is typical of Father Knickerbocker. Jehn McGraw has shunted maay
a ball player te ether clubs te buy him back later for a (ire figure check.
There is no market in New Yerk for uncut diamonds, but mount them and
shine them and they will bring big prices.
SENATOR PEPPER'S athletic days are ever, but he made a hit at
Penn yesterday when he addressed the football players.
Pitt Proves Geed Leser
IF THERE is one college in" the East accustomed tc winning football team
that one is the University of Pittsburgh.
Fer many seasons Pep Warner has turned out elevens that reached the
lefty heights of championship contenders ; and the Panther reverd everthe last
ten years is undoubtedly the best in this section.
Pittsburgh is en the rocks this season. Here It Is with the third Saturdsj
in October still in the future nnd the Panthers already have dropped two games.
In victory the Panthers have proved geed winners nnd are new showing
their gameness In defeat. Have the students quit the team because two out of
three games have been lest? Yes, Just like Grant quit Richmond.
The undergraduates' faith in Glenn Warner is unshaken. They believe h
will come back and win the majority of the games.
The Panthers took great pride in the winning football teams, but they didn't
gloat ever their triumphs and neither are they crying ever their defeats.
Thus the Plttsbugh undergraduates have measured up te one of Kipling'i
standards. They have treated triumph nnd disaster just the same.
PRINCETON has the right spirit toward rowing. Dr. Spaeth had
twenty-two crews out en the waters yesterday. Twenty-two
crews mean 170 oarsmen.
