Des Moines University Eleven Administers 7 to 6 Defeat to Creighton
Cornhuskers and Tigers Battle
to 7-7 Tie on Very Muddy Field
Nebraska Warriors Nearly Score Three Times in Third
Period, but the Missouri Line Held Valiantly
in Each Instance.
- -—
Columbia. Mo., Oct. 27.—With the
field in a heavy condition due to
rain that fell during tho morning,
Nebraska and Missouri battled to a
7 to 7 tie here yesterday afternoon.
Missouri's first touchdown came af
ter five minutes of play. Nebraska's
■core came later in the same period,
when Captain Lewellyn intercepted
a forward pass and ran BO yards for
a touchdown.
Neither team was able to cross the
goal again although Nebraska were
within striking distance a numHbr of
times. The Cornhuskers used the
forward pass . to good advantage
throughout the game.
The University of Missouri scored
a touchdown on Nebraska in the first
five minutes of play, when Van
Dyke blocked an attempted kick by
Wier. Nebraska scored a touchdown
later in the quarter when Captain
Lewellyn intercepted one of White
man’s passes and ran BO yards for
the goal. Both tries at goal were
successful.
Nebraska came near scoring three
times in the second period. Nobel
broke through the Missouri line for
a 45-yard run, putting the ball on
Missouri's four-yard line. The Mis
souri line held for two downs and a
i forward pass over the line was
grounded. Missouri punted out of
L^iirtger but Nebraska rushed the ball
JP^back to Missouri’s 20-yard line. A
( forward pass over the line was block
ed, going for a touchback.
Nebraska again opened an aerial
attack, two passes, R. Dewitz to
Noble, placing the ball on Missouri's
five-yard line, and Nebraska was
penalized 15 yards for holding. The
half ended with Misouri holding the
ball on their own 25-yard line.

tiabe Ruth Sets All-Time Batting
Record in Last Season Performance
This in Spite of the Fact That He Was Able to Only Tie Cy
Williams’ Record for the Year and Was Behind His
Own Mark.
Now York, Oct. 27.—An analysis of
tlio batting performances of Babe
Ituth this season discloses that the
big slugger compiled one of the most
remarkable. If not the greatest, rec
ords In major league history, despite
the fact that he failed to lead the
American league hitters and was only
able to tie Cy Williams of the Phillies
for the home run leadership with 41
circuit blows, Is behind the World’s
record he set tn 1921.
The complete record of the Babe,
however, and the story of Ills versa
tile greatness—the work that earned
him the crown of the most valuable
American league player—show him as
the big star of the year. And to prove
the real merit of Ids performance ll
Is necessary to only compare his work
with that of other halcyon days of the
diamond.
The best batting mark now re
corded in the baseball books Is .492,
B^ninde by James K. O’Neill while piny
f^H'g with the St. Louis Pam of the
^■id American association halt in
|H Unofficial records for the sen
BnH n show Hint Italic Ituth p >■ o-iputcd
the entire schedule of the Yankees.
V 152 games, a record In Itself for
I Ituth. These figures also show that
he was at hat C20 official times, that
^he gcored 151 runs and made 205 safe
hits, giving him a batting average
•f .394.
C
In addition to this remarkable bat
ting average, Ruth was passed by
American league pitchers 171 times
If these w re figured as base hits and
counted in his times at bat, as was
the ease with O'Neill's record, they
would give Ktith a total of 691 times
at bat and 376 hits for a batting aver
age of .844, or 52 points better than
the record of the old St. Louis
slugger.
Another phase of Ruth's work as a
batsrns* which undoubtedly created n
new major league record was the
number of times he reached first base
during the 1923 season. In addition
to his 203 hits and his 171 passes
there were other times when he got
on, either by forcing a runner, a field
er's choice, by being hit by a pitched
ball or through an error. This total
shows that Ruth reached first base a
fraction under three times for each of
the 152 games during the season.
In attaining the high mark O'Neill
was aided by the rules of that year,
which provide that bases On balls
should be figured as base h'ts; also
that when a batter was hit by a
pitched ball he was charged with a
(lino at bat and credited with a base
hit. Even with those advantages,
O'Neill must have been a great hitter.
Yet It Is certain that many bases on
balls figured In the compilation of
O'Neill’s .492 mark.

Entrants in U. S.
Golf Meet to
Qualify in Sections
Time of Preliminary Play to
Be Cut With Half of Con
testants Qualifying in East;
Balance in West.
New York, Oct. 27.—The 1924 na
tional open chanrpionship under the
auspices of the United State Golf as
sociation will have the contestants
qualify ng in sections, as had been
the original intention this year. Eigh
ty golfers will qualify In the east and
the same number In the west for a
total of 169 players, so that only two
clays will lie needed for the champion
ship proper. At Inwood In July,
practically 10 days were needed to
decide the winner, because of the fact
lhat four days were taken to qualify,
and there was an extra day for the
play off of the tie between Bobby
Jones, the ultimate winner, and Bob
by Crulckshank, the Shackamaxon
professional.
Conditions next year will provide
for the pros to play 36 holes a day
for the championship proper. All
qualification details will be left in the
hands of the Professional Golfers' As
sociation of America, and the exact
method of handling the event will be
worked out at the next national exe
cutive meeting of the association to
be held in this city next month. Noth
ing definite has been given out con
cerning the course for the 1924 cham
pionship, although it is practically
understood that the Oakland Hills
Country club near Detroit will be the
scene of action.
One would naturally suppose that
the United States Golf association
would be the first to announce Its
selection of the courses for 1924 cham
pionship*. but possibly that body does
not believe in the "open door” policy.
After Max Mfu-ston won the national
amateur championship at Flossmoor
last month he made a statement to
the effect that he "would be pleased
to defend his title over his home
courso at Merlon next year, when he
hoped that the playera would have
as good a time and be extended the
same courtesies and hospitality as
was the case at Flossmoor."
It has long been known that Merlon
was looked on as a possibility for the
amateur event, as the two lt-hole
courses there would certainly prove
of advantage in running off the
qualifying rounds. Incidentally, an
extra day will not be needed, so that
the championship, Instead of getting
under way on Saturday and ending
the following Saturday, will start on
•Monday and end Saturday. That dou
ble circuit proposition is probably
what won the prize for Merlon.

Coaches Favor intly
City as Place for
Scene of Battle.
New York, Oct. 27.—It is reported
that the Army Notre Dame football
game probably will be played in Chi
cago next year on Saturday, October
18. Considerable pressure has been
brought to bear on the War depart
ment by leading citizens and organiz
ations of the western metropolis, to
sanction the struggle and reports
from Washington Indicate the de
partment is favorable to the idea.
The trip to the Pacific coast, which
the Naval academy will make this
year will help the plans of those
working for the appearance of the
Army in Chicago next fall. It Is said
The Jaunt of the midshipmen vslll es
tablish a precedent at least for these
Institutions which is likely to have
considerable Influence on later de
velopments.
The West Point cadets never have
traveled west. MoBt of their tour
ing has been done in this section of
the country. Chicagoans and thous
ands of others in various western
cities always have been anxious to
see this wonderfully trained group of
mm parade, and there is no doubt
that their appearance In Chicago
would be a great boon for the aca.l
emy, ns well as a magnificent enter
tainment to those who never have
seen the West Pointers in action.
By next fall Chicago will be able
to handle the crowd which will want
to attend this contest, because its
new municipal stadium, which will
accommodate 100,000. will he com
pleted. All of the army officers and
coaches stationed at West Point nr?
greatly In favor of the game being
held In Chicago, and it Is needless to
say that Notre Dame alumni nnd
others are working hard for this
arrangement.

>oach Wynne’s Men Unable
to Fathom Playing of
Visitors’ Fullback.
Despite the advantage of a six
point lead, gained In the second quar
ter of play, Creighton went down to
defeat In their first home game of
the season Saturday to the strong
Des Molnee university eleven. The
score stood 7 to 6 at the end of the
game in favor of Des Moines. Creigh
ton missed their try for point after
the touchdown and that defeated
them.
With Fitzgibbon on the sidelines
with a fractured leg, Creighton
started Into the game playing straight
football. When the aireal attack was
finally resorted to It was Mah6ney to
Lupke and few of them were success
ful. Only once was the old Fitz
gibbon to Mahoney play used, then
it was Lower to Allen, and a Des
Moines player Intercepted th<- pass.
Des Moines outplayed Creighton
throughout the game. Their heavier
line continually crashed through the
Creighton defense for gains, and
Little, star half back, simply carried
the pigskin through almost at will.
Play after play Little was called
on to take the ball, and not once did
he fail. The gains were not at all
sensational or exceptionally long, hut
the few yards added up made first
downs when they were needed.
Coulter, fullback, showed a new
style of play when he carried the
hail. His plays were through center,
officially, but as a matter of fact they
were over center. Time after time
when the lines held tight Coulter dove
head first over the opposition, gaining
yards on every try.
At the start Creighton won the
toss and chose to defend the north
goal. Mahoney kicked ofT for Creigh
ton and Knapp received the ball.
After a slight attack Des Moines
punted. O. Rust Intercepted a pass
in mid field, hut a fumble by Des
Moines immediately afterward lost
them the ball.
Creighton started to buck the hr.e,
but a penalty forced Mahoney to kicc
The ball remained near the center oi
the field. The quarter ended without
scoring.
Des Moines had the ball In the
center of the field and attempted to
force their way through with line
plunges but were held for downs.
Little punted and Creighton returned
the ball to the center of the field on
another punt. Des Mofnes tried one
more line plunge that proved unsuc
cessful ar.d then resorted to a f r
ward pass. IBihotiey of Creighton in
tercepted the pass and carried the
ball to the 40-yard line. Flagman.
Des Moines, went out on the play and
Jorgenson was sent in.
Mahoney then sent a beautiful for
ward pass to Kean. 30 yards away,
and Kean carried the ball for 12 vard
more. The ball was rtthln striking
distance of the goal and Creighton at
tempted a line plunge. It was un
successful. On a second plunge Kean
5
carried the ball over. Creighton
missed their try for punt.
Creighton kicked off and the bal.
went out of bounds on the 20-yard r
line, Anderson recovering It for Wea
Moines. Montgomery was sent in a'
this point to replace Edwards. With
the play Des Moines started smash
lng Into the line. Coulter carried ths
ball through for. 15 yards. Then it
was Little, then Coulter, then Little
and the Des Moines team marched
down the field toward Creighton 1
goal.
With the hall In the shadow of the
goal posts. Creighton began to play
football. McAleer broke through anc
