Chet Wynne Will Succeed Mac Baldrige as Coach of Creighton Grid Team '-<s Former Notre Dame Athlete to Be Head Football Mentor at Blue and White University New Creighton Coach Turned Out Championship Team at Midland College Last Season—Joint Holder of Indiana Track Records—Graduate of Norton (Kan.) High School. By RALPH WAGNER. “Chet” Wynne, former Notre Dame star athlete, and last season coach of the Midland college football team of Fremont, Neb., has been secured as head football coach at Creighton university for next season. The announcement that W^ynne had signed a contract to pilot the Blue and Wrhite gridsters next season was made yesterday by Rev. John F. McCormick, president of Creigh ton university. The new Creighton coach was selected from a long list of applicants by the board of trustees of the uni versity. “Mac" Baldrlge, who resigned as coach at the end of the 1922 season, will he retained ns line coach next year and also as a member of the ad visory board. Wynne, however, will be the head football coach and have complete charge of the squad. The former Notre Dame athlete will devote j his time to the backfleld. Sort of Surprise. The announcement that “Chet" Wynne would be Creighton s next coach i ame as sort of a surprise to followers of the university, although those in close touch with the athletic doings of the Blue knowledge factory hinted around that Wyhne would be the next Hilltop pigskin tutor. I hat the former Notre Dame ath-( lete will make a good coach for “ Creighton is not questioned. Wynne • tnios to Creighton with an athletic record and career that would do Jus tice to any athlete in the country. Few football fans live anil breathe that do not know this fellow "Chet” Wynne; his athletic career at Notre Dante and his coaching at Midland last season where he turned out the first undefeated team that has ever been housed at the Lutheran college. Midland copped the state college con ference grid title. This alone speaks J well of Wynne, who, until last year, l ad not coached a team. Wynne, 25 years old, five feet 11 inches in heighth and weighing 180 pounds, was described by the famous ''hurley Brickley as "the best back I have ever seen. ' In writing of the Rutgers-Notre Dame battle on- the Polo Grounds in New York during the season of 1921, Brickley said of Wynne; "He reminded me of Kddie Mahan in the wey he ran anil has the same knee action. He is a hard man to bring down.” Kansas Product. Tne new Creighton coach is a grad- j uate of Norton (Kan.) high school, class of 1918. Wynne spent four years at Notre Dame. He played on the football squad during that time, (he last two years as regular fullback. Chet” is a graduate of the Notre Dame law school and is entitled to hang his shingle out any time and any place. He is a member of the Baptist church. Wynne is the last member of what football critics the country over claimed to have been the greatest trio of gridsters ever developed by the * Notre Dame coach. Knute Roekne. Gipp, Mohardt and -‘Wynne,--these three athletes stand out as one of the greatest trios of football players who ever donned the moleskins. Football scribes still harp about ' Mohardt, Glpp and Wynne. These I knights of the pen claim that this rio was unbeatable. Wynne won places op all the All-American elevens of New York and Philadelphia. Walter Camp placed Wynne on his honor able mention rool. Won Honors in Track. While football was Wynne’s favorite sport, this Notre Dame athlete won honors in track. He was captaih of i he Notre Dame track team during his final year In university, and joint holder of the Indiana intercollegiate record* in the high and low hurdles. Wynne equaled the world’s record In the 40-yard Indoor hurdles and placed in both high and low hurdles in the national meet, June. 1921. Wynne Is also a basket ball play er of no mean ability, having won his letter in this sport both in high school and at Notre Dame. The Notre Dame athlete was well known In Fremont, even before he stepped off the train at the Fremont station. So prominent Is this young man In the athletic world that all Fremont had rearf and been told of "Chet" Wynne. Developed Good Team. Wynne's development of the Mid land foothnl! team brought praise from every football follower who wit nessed the "Fighting Lutherans" in battle.

During his coaching at Mid land last fall, he always appeared on the field in football uniform and would often grab the pigHkin and il lustrate his lessons. He led his men through a series of gymnastics and calisthenics every evening. Wynne is : o student of Knute Rockne and the | famous Notre Dame's coaching sys- ' tern was instituted at Midland. When ! Wynne takes up his duties at Oreigh | ton he will start the Notre Dame system at the Blue university. It is no wonder that all Midland crowned Wynne “King of Fremont'’ at the end of the 1922 football season. For the first time in 33 years. Mid land won a state conference grid title. It was Midland's first title and each and everyone of the Midland students and alumni still thank \ "Chet" Wyne. Omaha fans still remember the Mid land college team that invaded Omaha last grid season and held the Creigh ton team to two touchdowns. Ak-Sar-Ben Knights Win. The Ak-Sar-Ben Knights defeated the Benson Christians in a fast game of basket ball last night at the Creigh ton "gym,” 28 to 22.

Frank Ryan, former Creighton prep star, and last year chosen cap tain and center of the all-city high school team, was the star of the con test. lie tossed no less than 3G field goals and counted 4 more points via tne free throw route.

LIEB. < '—^v^ASKDALL never knew I 1 i a better or more pa 1 —/ J tient lead-off man | — s than little Miller l } 'Huggins, pewee j J J manager of the New ' e York Yankees, and once cracn second baseman in the Na tional league. Mil ler only hit over .300 once as a regu lar player, but he } was one of the pesk * iest men at the bat in either league 15 years ago. Crouched at the plate, the pint-sized Infielder gave a pitcher only a limited zone to shoot at. And the little Cin- - clnnatian had an unerring eye. He I may have hit at an occasional bad ball, j but certainly not at many. He made a unique major legue rec ord on June 1. 1310, while playing with the Cardinals, when he went to bat six times in the same game with- ; out being charged with a single time ( at bat. He walked four times and hit two sacrifices. But Huggins could do other things in addition to work pitchers for bases on balls. He was a good hitter, though no great one. His strength was limited by his small stature, and Miller seldom hit for extra bases. But he poked his Singles through the in field. or beat out his elusive bunts. "Hug” also was a smart, efficient second baseman, one of the foremost in his day. During his minor league career, he established a world's rec ord for a busy afternoon at second base. Tn a game played between St. Paul and Louisville of the American association on September 17, 1902. Miller handled 11 putouts and 8 as' sists for St. Paul without an error in a nine-inning game. The major league record for a second baseman is held by Fred Dunlap of Cleveland, who handled 18 chances on July 24. 1882. Miller, a native Cincinnatian, broke into the majors with his home town team on April 15, 1904, playing second base for the Reds in a game with the Chicago Cubs. Huggins’ second base rival was Johnny Evers, who spiked Huggins during the game. The game tesulted in a 10 inning tie. Joe Kelly managed the Cincinnati team and Kelly, Mike Donlin and Cy Seymour made up the Red outfield. Huggins is tied with Claude Ritchey for bplaving tho greatest number of games at second base in one season. He appeared in 156 games at second for th<\ Reds in 1907. From 1906 to 1908 Huggins played in 364 successive games, 111 in 1906, 106 in 1907 and 97 in 1908. Miller always was fast on the bases and a good base runner, but In 1914 he was caught stealing 36 times, a National league record for thwarted thieving expeditions. But it show's the midget always was trying. Mrs. Stanton to Plav New Champ Mrs. Paul Stanton, captain of tba! Updike team in the Undies' Metro- j poll tan league, has formally chal lenged Mrs. H. \V. 1 luff, newly crown ed woman's city and state bowlim, champion, it became known this ; morning. Mrs. Stanton ranks among the four; leading howlers in the Undies' Pin league with an average of 162. The date for the match has not been se-t. Mrs. lluff won the title last Sunday by defeating Mrs. T. It. Jameson in a special five-game match, and has a right to watt 30 days before defend ing her crown. Miss Myrtle Houseman, another leading feminine pin tumbler, expects to challenge the winner of the Stan ton-Huff match. Mrs. Jameson, the dethroned cham pion, will endeavor to win back the title in order to place it In a class.o to be bowled after, by all the leading players in the city. 1 Mrs. Huff has declined to place the , title in a classic.

E. basket ball team in a one sided contest last night at the "V" in the class R church league play. The score was 23 to 12. The Benson M. E. pulled the fash ionable "comeback'' act and defeated the First Reformed quintet, 15 to 6. after trailing their opponents to the half. In tlie third game of the evening. B'nal Israels continued their winning streak by taking a game from the Grace Lutherans, 20 to 15. The final game went to the "Peps." who trimmed the First Christiians, 10 to 8. Lyons Loses Cue Match Harry Shephard defeated Harry Lyons in a hard-plaved contest in the slate cue tourney at the Holmes' Recreation parlors last night. The final score was 125 to 93. The game was even until the last three shots, when Shephard emerged In the lead. Shephard made many fancy shots and scored a high run of 20 balls. Lyons made the high run of the game, which was 25 halls. Beats Eddie O’Dowd Columbus, O., Feb. 2.— lack iKid > Wolfe, Cleveland featherweight, won the judges' decision over Eddie O'Dowd in a 12-round boxing bout here last night NAT HoLMAN one of the great est of basket ball players, has 1 written an interesting book en titled "Scientific Basket Ball." In it lie explains why the professional ath lete generally has the "edge" on the amateur. Nat writes "The first and perhaps the most important of these reasons is founded upon the commer cial element of the professional game which requires that a player he just so much better than the next man, or at least his equal, to retain his job.” Holman's theory seems to be n very sound one. Money, “the root of all evil,” is in sports, at least, the root of all im provement of the "pro” over the "simon pure." The difference be tween the two is more marked in box ing. probably, than any other branch of competitive effort. Remember the case of Jim MeSherry? He was a boxing coach at a big eastern univer sity back in 1909. "Mac" looked like a world-beater In bouts with the "rah-rah" boys. The latter told "Mac" he was and he believed it— until he had been in the professional ring a few minutes with Sailor Burke. The cruel Burke actually butchered poor "Mac" in less than a round in a bout that almost killed boxing in New York at the time. There are many cases similar to this one, but we haven't room for them here. Comparing professional and ama teur or semi-pro baseball is a sheer waste of space. But one instance. Back in 1905 the Philadelphia Giants (colored champions) were considered one of the finest semi-pro teams in the world. The writer saw them, and believe us, they were good. That was also the year when Rube Waddell was at his best with the pennant-win ning Athletics of the American league. The teams met because of discussion in Philly as to their rela tive merits. Rube shut out the dusky aggregation. 5-0. If we remember rightly. Waddell pulled his famous! stunt when the colored gents went to bat in their last half of the ninth— | called in his outfield and fanned out j the side. Some years back Bill Bailey, great ■ est amateur cyclist of Europe, came over and trimmed our best "stmon J pure" pedullsts. Many thought him the equal of our great Frank Kramer. Bailey turned “pro" and came over again the next summer. Kramer made the former amateur star look foolish when they met. The amateur In golf gives the "pro” plenty of trouble. Gene Sarazen was able to defeat Bobby Jones by but one stroke at Skokie In the national open. But there must be a professional "edge" here too when you consider that ni amateur has won the title since Evans turned the trick in 1916. In running It. P. Williams, pro fessional. Is credited with 9 1-5 sec onds for the 100 yards, the best ama teur mark being 9 3-3. Jack Donald son, another pro, lias bettered the marks of the greatest amateurs in 'he 220 and 300 yards—Wefers, I'raig. Llppinoott. Drew and Parker. On the whole, however, the amateurs have the better marks in track and field events. Ji.se Oapablanca, world's champion chess player, last year engaged at simultaneous play 103 amateur oppo nents. He won 102 of the games, the other being a draw. To "nightcap" ths “pro"-“simon pure" comparison glance over these billiard and pool figures: Billiards—Best Record Averages.

D., Fell 2.—(Special ) Creighton advanced another step netarer ihe North Central conference title by administering a 38 to 17 drub bing to South Dakota State here last night before 3,000 people. Sweeping the Jackrabbits off their feet by sensational long shots short ly after the opening whistle, the Hill toppers ran their score up to 8 to 0 before Carry counted on a free throw. State came back stronger In the last five minutes of the first half, scoring (i points. The half ended 17 to 7. for Creigh ton. Thune started the second half with a short follow in shot for State, but the rally was short-lived. Creighton scoring at will on the demoralised State defense. Capt. Jimmy Lovely, with 22 points, scored enough to de feat State alone. He made eight bas kets and six free throws. Five of his shots were made from the center of the floor. Creighton played a five-man of fense and used the long pass success fully. a. 11. SHate. Pen. Creighton. Welsh .. It V Lovely Carry . L. F. Trautman Thune..Mahoney Bob Coffey R. G.
