BACK STRONGER
Pittsburgh by 100 points while col-
lecting all the errors made. The
ever reliable Pcckinpaugh has made
three errors. the only three made.
So far Pittsburgh's young infield
has made no. errors. but no small
part of the credit awarded should go
to Grantham at first. In the second
game Grantham was digging out low
and wide throws all the afternoon.
He must have lifted five or six wild
pegs out of the dirt wont using a
net or any other area lice. It was
a magnificent exhibition of first base
play and undoubtedly saved the
game. Both Wright and Traynor lost
their target more titan once. but
Grantham‘s miracle fielding carried
the two young men along where a
slip or two would have precipitated
certain trouble.
Seven Chances for Senators.
Washington had seven ‘chances
where a. base hit. would have won the
second game. but Aldridge and his
defense rolled back each attempt. it
isn't often that a strong. pinch-hit-
ting team will fail in seven out of
seven opportunities 'ol‘fercd. and it
isn't often that a determined‘outiit
will twice fill the bases with no one
out and get but one run from all this
scramble. Yet something must be
said for the pitching and defense
which breaks up impending rallies
and it was Grantham who first kept
tl1e,Plrate infield defense upon its
feet. He made enough staple and
fancy catches to last half a season.
Pittsburgh. to win, must find
some way to get its attack going

STRENL'OI‘S SPORT.
Football is considered a far more
strenuous and‘ dangerous sport than
baseball. But for a moment consid-
er the case of Ernie Vick.
During his days at Michigan. Vick
was one of the country's greatest
centers. He was an all-America ss-
lection in 1021.
Unless my memory fails me, \‘lck
lost little or no time from play dur-
ing his football career at Michigan.
Not once was he seriously injured.
After graduation Vick, who also
starred as acatchcr at Michigan,
Cast his lot with the St. Louis Na-
tionals.
Vick looks like an excellent base-
ball prospect. Injuries. however
have kept. him from proving his real
Worth as a. big leaguer. He has
played only about 10 games this
year.
His most serious injury was a
badly shattered thumb that for a
time threatened to end his profes-
sional career.
0 O 0
Without a. doubt football is far
the more strenuous and dangerous
than baseball. but one could never
cite the case of Ernie \‘ick to prove
such an assertion.
" e o e
LURE OF MONEY.
A majority of college athletes.
who shine at both footbadl and base-
ball, prefer to play the former sport.
Vick is no exception.
Since getting out of college. Vick
in the fall has assisted in coaching
the forwards at Michigan. He loves
football and naturally the coaching
job, next to playing. appeals to him.
.Had- a chat with him the other
day in which football, not baseball,
was the chief topic of conversation.
He has about decided to severe his
connection with the grid game as a
'ineans of livelihood.
Vick would like to try his hand
. at coaching some big college eleven
‘ _ but says the compensation does not
make it sufficiently worth while for
the responsibilities of the position.
‘Vlck. a 1313‘ Ten star. says the col-
. logos in other sections.~the east in
particular. are far more generous in
the matter of salary for coaclws.
The professional game hasn't
great appeal to him, and. since the
possibilities of coaching are too lim-
ited us far as salary
\‘lck has about decided to expend
his efforts in some other direction
.“ s e
The name of Vick will live long in
the memory of those who like Big
Tcn football. Michigan Will always
remember his great work.

is becoming a bugaboo in certain
colleges.
While the pro game is growing in
popularity, I seriously doubt if it
will ever vie with the. crowds that
see the big college games.
Football is a college sport. Th:
college spirit and rivalry between
the contesting teams are what give
it colo1, make it.
, 'lake the case of “lied" Grange.
He is the most talked-about player
in the game. Football fans met-y-
where are thrilled by the more men-
tion of his name.
The Illinois star is the greatest
drawing card in football. He is the
Babe Ruth of the gridiron when it
comes to packing them in at ,the
gates. ‘
When Illinois plays Pennsylvania
at Philadelphia shortly, the Penn.
stadium will be packed to the extent
of 50, 000 and Grange will be the
synosure of .all el'es.
While Grange is primarily the
magnet, yet the result as a means
for an east and west comparison,
as well as interest in whether Penn
will be able to stop Grange. also
play a big part.
Grange graduates from Illinois
this fall. If he shbuldjoln a western
pro team. say Chicago, and went to
play Philadelphia, a crowd of 10,-
000 would be considered a mamoth

Which proves that the college

Grange. when he departs from Illi-

It appears that when Dundee
signed for the Herman contest it
was under the impression that the
bout was to be for the featherweight
championship of the world. This
contract was with the Jewish "Ma-
ternity Hospital. for the benefit of
which the Polo Grounds show was
first arranged. The hospital with
drew after a misunderstanding or
disagreement with Jimmy John-
ston and the Dundee contract was
never filed with the Boxing Com-
mission. When the Maternity Hos-
pital washed its hands of the boxing
show Jimmy Johnston called all the
principals on the program together
and asked them to sign new agree-
ments.
These contracts were filed with
the Boxing Commission and are now
in possession of that body. The
commission informed the somewhat
infuriated Mr. Dundee yesterday
that the only contract that could be
recognized was the one. on file.
which calls for a. cut of 15 per cent
for the former featherweight cham-
pion. Dundee threatened to pull out
of the show entirely and was told
very plainly that if he did he would
be suspended.

Sotrc Dame—All America Quarter-

Since the quart'rback must do
much of the actual thinking for a
football team. it.,.ls absolutely neces-
sary that he have a clear hcadat
all times.
Coach Iinuto Rockne. of Notre
Dame. under whom I gained my
knowledge of the game. is a strong
advocate of the theory that the
quarterback to do his best work
must at all times be as near mental-
ly and physically efficient as pos-
sible.~-1
For that reason he favors using
the quarterback as little as possible
on offense in the actual carrying of
the ball. As I understand it. Har-
vard for years has leaned to that
point. of view.
Football is a strenuous game. The
man carrying the ball is subjected
to the strongest fire of the opposi-
tion. Play hard and clean is the
motto of most. football coaches.
Hard play means getting the man
with the ball and doing it in a con-
vincing style.
~The mere exertion expended in
attempting to advance the balltakes
its toll out of the player. Add to
this a dozen or more hard tackles

No quarterback can do his boat
work when tired mentally. It. tends
to confuse his selection of plays and
often results in slips that would not
have otherwise happened.
However. don‘t get the impres-
sion that I do not favor. the quar~

the ball. My thought is that his nt-

punch.
With'the opposition working on
the theory that the quarterback will
not be used in canrylngthe bull. it
is possible for him to pull a sur-
prise play at a critical spot by doing
that very thing. l'sually he can get
away with it.
Late in the game the quarterback.
who has-nursed his physical condi-
tion. can often take advantage of u
by carrying the ball in preference to
his tired backfield.
In other words. the quarterback
should direct the play rather titan
execute it. His efforts in carrying
the ball should be in the nature of
a. suprise, thereby -incrcasing the
chances of going over.
