Upheavals on the gridiron are so prevalent this jieaxun th.it sooallcd form is becoming rather a thing to be despised. But even so. the defeat of Nebraska at the hands of the Syracuse eleven on Sat urday tmii-t stand forth as a cataclys mic collapse of well founded hopes, such as will linger long In the mem ory of the Cornhuskers. The westerners had expected to win the game and not without reason. which fact at one and the same time offers a possible explanation of the defeat and strikes some foundation for a more, poignant ami penetrating dis nppolntnunt at their failure. For It Is no wilil cues to say that the vis iting eleven did not play its tranie.

Foollnh Question. Fannette to Fan "If a fullback loses hi legs in a game, (toes lie become a halfback?" primed his team particularly on one of the best defenses against a success ful passing game, that Is, to rush the passer and close in on him before his team can get a man into the open. Nebraska Well Covered. Furthermore, the Nebraska receiv ers were well covered at all times. Not once during the game did they really get a man Into position to take a pass, even on the move, without opposition. And for the most part the ball was simply heaved down the field, right or left, with plenty of force and lots of good intentions, but with Utile chance for ultimate success. Syra cuse, Incidentally, showed up rather lame on the uerial game, but It was learned late thst Meelmn hud only one man In the kickfield rated good at passing, awl he was playing with his riKht arm bandaged In such a way that he couldn't do any passing.

(Copyi iht, l22, by Km ftsturts fyndl CSld, ino.J They've played some thrilling guinea through all the baseball years but none has ever eclipsed in the spectaC' flur the weird, the tenseness and the scalp lifting of that final one in the world series of 11)12. That single combat had packed Into It more that was trngedy, more that was astonishing and more of "breaks" and uncertainty than any that's been played Mince the sport began. It happened In Hoston and the 17, UOU who saw It had the vision Indeli bly Imprinted upon their brains. They played a best four out of seven series In those days, but one of the combats had been called on ac count of darkness. With the combats threo each, the gladiators squared off for the final and deciding tussle with Mathewson on the mound for the Olunts and Hugh Hedlent, then a fledgling, pitching for the Red Sox. New Tork Scores First, New York scored the first run of the game In the third. Josh Devere walked, went to aecond on Doyle's In field out, galloped to third on Snod grass' Infield out and scored on Mur ray's double. Boston tied it up In the seventh, fitalil singled to center. Heinle Wag ner walked. Olof Henriksen batted for Bedient and doubled, scoring Btalil. The score remained 11 as the teams went into the 10th with "fimok ey Joe" Wood pinch hitting for Be dient. Then things began tn happen, Murray doubled, Merkle picked out a fast one, shot It for a line single and Murray scored with what looked like the run that would decide the game, the aeries and the baseball championship of the world. But Fat Holds Hand. Fate ruled otherwise. Wood was first up for the Sox In their section of the 10th. But as be Missouri Hoopsters on Grid Squad Columbia, Mo., Nov. 7. Handicap ped by the large number of basket ball men who are now on the foot ball aquad, George Bond, assistant basket ball coach at the University of Missouri, Is putting the remaining members of his squad through a dally workout on court fundamentals and the principles of the short pass. ' Captain Arthur Browning, UonFau rot and Kaer Vanice are the only three veterans who have reported for cage practice so far, while the remain ing varsity men, and most of the can didates from last year's freshman team are still at football practice. Browning plays forward and Faurot and Vanice are guards. Captain Herbert Bunker of the Ti ger football team, who has been nam ed all-valley guard for the first two years; Bob Hays, guard, and Ralph Lester, forward, are the cagp squad veterans who are still out for foot ball, while Wallle Smith, John Welsh and one or two other likely freshmen of last year, are also missing from Bond's practice session for the same reason. The Missouri schedule, which Is part of the round robin arrangement adopted a year ago by the Missouri Valley conference, follows: January 6 OrlnnHl at Orlnnell. Janunt-y 6 Drake at Den Motn"s.

'E a la at - . a if. aar i r the 1912 WBrrfiCrcklitonMay started for the plate, Manager Jake Htahl culled him hack and Clyde Kn gle romped forward as a pinch hit te. Kngle connected with one of Mat ty's slow ones and the ball soared away to the outfield. Straight and as true as a die It sailed toward Fred Snodgrnaa. The Giant outfielder never had to move a step for it. He simply reached out his hands, the ball droped Into them and out it dropped again. 8o it was that Hnodgrnss made the most famous or perhaps Infamous- muff In all baseball history. Fnglo was on second base befuro Bnodgras, astonished almost to a point of paralysis, could pick tip the ball that lay at his feet. Hooper t'p. Hooer, next man up, flb-d to Knod grass, hut Hteve lerkes, tne Jled ox second baseman, worked Matty for a puss. Two on one out one run needed to tie and two to win a world's cham plonship! Then came Trls Speaker! And, likewise, came the play or the "break" which really decided the combat; an error of omission by three Giants which was Infinitely more re sponsible for the team's defeat than was the Knodgrass muff. Speaker 1M1 h'K" 'ou' which snared into air at a point about 10 feet short of first base and about five feet out of fair territory. It was Fred Merkle's ball. He started to set himself for the catch when "Chief Meyers, the Giant backstop, thundered along toward him, making motions like a man about to catch a high foul- And, from the box, raced Mathewson. Errors of Omission, Merkle, thinking Meyers was set to make the catch, movel back, Mey ers, having noticed as he was tearing along, that Merkle was set to catch the ball, stepped back, Matty, think ing one or the other surely would make the catch, stepped back. And so the ball fell to the ground within the little circle which Merkle, Meyers and Matty formed. Given a new lease on life, Speaker singled, scoring Kngle with the tying run and sending Yerkes to third. Then Larry Gardner drove out a ter rific sacrifice fly to Josh Devore and Yerkes scored with the run that gave Boston another world's cham pionship. They can say, If they want, through all the years to come, that the muff of Snodgrass made a Red Sox triumph possible. But It will ever be the con elusion that it wasn't the error of commission by the outfielder that doomed the Giants, but that It was that of omission by Merkle, Matty and Meyers. For If that foul had been caught, Speaker would have been out and the fly of Gardner's, instead of being a winning sacrifice, would have retired the side and ended the game, two to one, in favor of the Giants'. Pittsburgh Club Rejects Gene Sarazen's Demand for Increase Pittsburgh, Nov. 8. -F.ugeno Sara len, national open golf rhamnlim, declared here today that the High land rlub made public its decision to reject his demand for an In creased salary net year without formally notifying hint.
