Omaha Bee Sports" West Scores First Victory in Sectional Series California Trojans Outplunge Syracuse in 16-0 Win; Muddy Field Hinders McBride. I By Associated Fre»a. AN FRANCISCO, Dec. 7 —In the 16 to 0 victory which the Uni versity of Southern California scored over Syracuse university in I .os Angeles coliseum yesterday the west took the first of a series of post season football games with the east. The strong Syracuse team found it self outplunged and enrountered a stiffcr defense than it was able to of fer. The IT. S. C. Trojans blocked two punts in the first period, making possible a goal from placement anil a touchdown. Syracuse, however, held off further scoring until the fourth period, when a forward pass across the goal line netted the Tro jans another touchdown. The turf was slippery, and McBride, the Syra ruse back, whose specialty is field goals, was not able to kick scores. Three more east-west games remain to be played In California. On Christ mas day Southern California will en tertain at Los Angeles the University of Missouri, champion of the Missouri Valley conference. New Year's day four undefeated teams will appear, Notre Dame against Stanford at Pasadena and Pennsylvania against California at Berkeley. Notre Dame, called the unofficial champion of the United States, is the only one of the four that has won every game. The other three have played ties. Southern California will remain In training for the Missouri contest. Stanford and California will resume practice this week after a brief holi day for mid year examinations and general recuperation.

Is., Dec. 6.—Beginning this week, the Iowa Ktate athletic field will be re-graded and put In condition so that In the future rain and bad weather will have little effect on the playing of games scheduled for the home field. The football field will be re-graded and a 12-inch crown established, So that there will be drainage to the out side of the field. A Carrington loam, taken from the land south of the dairy farm, will be used to fill In the field. In the spring creeping bent will lie planted. This grass Is Ideal for a football field, but requires con siderable work, since It Is planted In Individual spears and as it spreads out takes root from each node, that touches the ground. After It Is established, it makes a thick carpet that is hard to kill out. At Minnesota this grass has been used on the athletic field with excel lent results. It Is also planned to re grade the baseliall diamond, so that It will drain more effectively. It will he graded along the same plan as the big league diamonds, with the pitch er’s box well raised and the short field well cut bark.

Doarn was high in his praise of the school of his choice, of Its coach, Route Rockne, and of the team as a whole. "Miller, Darden, Rtuhldreher and Crowley are wonders, but don't for get that line, which is mighty good," said Doarn on commenting on this year's eleven. "What kind of team will Notre Dame have next year? ’ Doarn w-as asked. In reply the big 200 pound tackle declared that Rockne would have Ju»t ns good a line, if not better, but said that the backfieid would he broken up by the loss of tlie "four horse men." Doarn leaves for South Bend to night and will return for the Christ mas holidays in two weeks.

Chicago, Dec. 6.—The mlddlewest ern and eastern football teams show more grim determination to win than the Pacific coast teams, declared Wal ter Camp, dean of American football authorities at the gathering of west ern conference football officials here today. Mr. Camp was on his way east af ter a trip to witness the Stanford Californla game on the Pacific coast which resulted irv a tie. There were 90,000' spectators, the largest crowd which ever witnessed a football game In America. Football teams on the Pacific coast pay too much attention to the stunts put on before! the game and during the intermission, Mr. l amp said, and too little to the attack during the game. He said the western teams showed a decided weakness In de fense against forward pass forma tiona.

That is the preilietion for next year's Marquette university football aggregation, and the prospects are that the local eleven will further en trench Itself among the gridiron elite of the nation. No sooner littd this season ended with an overwhelming 61 to 7 Inter sectional victory over the University of Vermont Ilian .Marquette followers began loolfing to the future and counting noses for Coach Frank Mur ray's next football edition. They found the prospects r«*sy, for only three men are being lost definitely, and at the most only flva will be missing next season. Graduating In June will lie Jerry Lunz, the veteran 208-pound tackle; John Peeples, best of the reserve tackles and a letterman this year, and Tarry Hall, substitute halfback. Lunz’ loss will he the most serious blow, as he has been the main cog In Marquette's great line work of the last three seasons. Line Coach Fitz gerald will have a job in developing his successor. Counting up those who return, there appears to be an abundance of material for most of the positions. The candidates will include: Hilweg, Flaherty, Fabay, Gerlach, Zlevers and Zegers. ends; Lane, Emory, Regan and A. Moran, tackles; Cart wright, Kamplne, Sullivan, Hornak and Tiefenthaler, jguards; Craine and Gavin, centers; demoting and f*og gins, quarterbacks; Reichtfuss, "Val uer, Kul., King, N. O'Neill and Kirn mell, halfbacks, and Heiniach, Rader and T. Moran, fullbacks. The squad has a wealth of good ends, guards and hacks, anil enough taekles and centers to Insure good play at those positions. With the experience of this season’s play, all should show improvement. The fresh man squad has some likely candi dates for the varsity, five of whom appear to have real class. Costello, tackle; Kyan, center; Kam pine and l^eary, fullbacks, and Dunn, end, are the quintet of stars. They will bolster the varsity squad ma terially, and there are others on this year’s freshman squad who will cause some of Murray’s veterans a little worry for their positions next fall. With prospects so good, Marquette athletic authorities are seeking a schedule worthy of the "Golden Ava lanche.” The Hilltop is meeting with its usual trouble in getting first-class teams, but it has become so apparent that Marquette is a first ranking ag gregation and that the local school strictly observes all eligibility rules and standards, that the best of them cannot pass it up. - 1 " lllini to Meet Butler in Place of Notre Dame on Gridiron Next Fall — Chicago. Dec. ah prospects of the “fighting IlHnl” and the “fighting Irish'' clashing on the gridiron next year were shattered by "Bob’’ Zuppke's late announcement that Illinois would play Butler col lege on October 10 and not Notre Dame. Knute Rockne, mentor of this year's national football champions, had given out the Information earlier In the day that he and Zuppke had a tentative understanding that their teams were to play on October 10. Zuppke's rejection of that date came as a blow to Big Ten and Notre Daine followers, who because of the performances of the two teams dur ing Hie season just over, have longed to see Rockne's "wonder eleven" and Red" Orange come to a decision. Pat Pages Butler team, however, has been on the Illinois schedule for the last several years and Zuppke probably figured that having already arrange.! a different lineup of games for next year it was just as well to take them on again, instead of the added burden of Notre Dame. As an early season contest and therefore a practice affair between two first class elevens, Zuppke, for that rea son, may also have decided that the gam* was not desirable. When Rockne heard of the Illinois coaches final decision in the matter, tie immediately got busy with the Minnesota officials and scheduled a game for October 24. Vances Selection as Most Valuable Player Draws Protests From St. Louis St. I.ouis. Dec. «.— 'Daisy” Vance's selection as the most valuable player in the National league met with de elded protests from St. Lamia fans. Their Indignation led the sport scribe* here tonight at a *peelal meet ing to draw up a resolution address ed to President John A. Heydler of the National league, asking that fu ture lialloting for the most valuable player be made public. The reaolution reads in part: "Whereas, in the recent National league's most valuable players' trophy award one member of the commission completely ignored Rogers Hornsby of the St, Louis Cardinals. ranked by yourself as the greatest plater of all time, and '‘Whereas, we believe this commis sion was the result of bias or pre judice and not sound and impartial baseball judgment and, "Whereas, in our opinion the com miaaioner who declined to mention Hornsbt s name acted In knowledge that the details of this balloting would not be made public— "Be it resolved: That the National league, though Its president, John A. Heydler, be requested to modify the rules governing the "best player” award so that the details of all future balloting as well as that of the recent award he made public.” BIG TEN COACHES FAVOR CHANGES Chicago. 7.— Western confer en< e athletic coaches In conference here discussed certain than gee in the football rules to l*e> suggested to the rules committee In New York city this winter.
