Syracuse Looks for Hard Contest • With the Huskers Hag Gone Through Season Without Having Goal Line Crossed Onec. Victory owr Penn State leaves the road wide open for high gridiron hon ors for the Syracuse team this year. Only Boston, a team which has only won one game tills year; Colgate, the Orange's leading rival, but rather dis appointing team this year, and Ne braska, which Is having on up-and down season—stand between Syra cuse and a perfect season. Saturday's results both its own vic tory over the undefeated Penn State eleven and the outcome of the other games In which tHe leading teams of the east took part, served only to put the Orange on a still higher plane than at any time this season. As far as ran be learned the Syra cuse team Is the only big team in the United States whose goal line has not been crossed. A field goal by Matsu, Japanese quarterback on the William and Mary eleven, has been the only score made against Syracuse this year. To go through an entire season without a touchdown being made against them, is a feat always long ed and hoped for but never attained at Syracuse university. Neither has a team been able to finish without a defeat or a tie game. Both these things are within the realm of pos sibility this year and therefore the Orange hopes are running high. ,v But the mere talk of championship , hopes has served to spoil many a good football team, so Meehan will do his utmost to knock this out of the heads of his men. Overconfidence is trie one thing he will now fight against and he knows how to eradi cate it. Many other Orange elevens have started their season auspicious ly only to be met with disaster en route from this overconfidence. However, the present machine is different in that it is one of the most evenly balanced machines in the his tory of Syracuse athletics. Not one individual has been responsible for the showing of the team. It has one of the greatest forward lines in the country, and Meehan has an array of backfield men of which any college would be proud. Early in the season Chet Bowman loomed up as an indi vidual star, but he was injured in the Pittsburgh battle and has been laid up ever since. However, he will i>e in shape for Boston Saturday and will also be on hand for the Ne braska and Colgate affrays. If either Colgate or Nebraska ex pect to atop Syracuse they must first stop McBride and Bowman. The lat ter, one of the fastest sprinters tn the university, can do the 100 yards In hla football togs close to 10 sec onds. He Is used in dashes around the ends. Ills specialty Is racing the opposing ends along the chalk marks parallel with the goal lines, and then, when he has outdistanced them, skirt ing the flank and starting off down the field. Once away it takes several to btop him, and there are few east ern players who can take a handicap and catch him. McBride is the line bucker de luxe. Alabama, Pittsburgh. Springfield and Penn State lines were wavered, cracked and busted wide open under the onslaughts of this human batter ing ram. Head down, ball tucked un der his arm. he crouches low and hits the line with terrific force. Two yards is a small gain for him; he generally averages from four to six. If Nebras ka or Penn State can stop him it will do something no other team the Orange has met this year has been able to do. Spring Training Camp a Mystery New York, Nov. 10.—It Is pretty well settled that the Giants will not go to San Antonio for their spring training In 1924. Instead, the Yankees may go there. Ed Barrow, one of the Yank managers, states that the Huggins tribe has three placea un der advisement. New Orleans, San Antonio and Shreveport. Miller Huggins Is strong for San Antonio, because he thinks It Is a great place for getting players In condition. Barrow Is strong for New Orleans because of Its healthy effect on the club treasury.

Earl Caddock Becomes Evangelist After Listening to Stranger Gives Away Practically All of His Wealth and Gives Up WTestling for Preaching—Traveling in West and North. New York, Nov. 10.—The star wrestlers of Europe, with the drop in the currency of their native lands, are no longer the haughty athletes of old and are now keen on picking up as many American dollars as possible. Everything points to a big year in the wrestling game, which means that Zbyszos, Lewis, Stecher and a num ber of European grapplers will be seen on the mat. But one of the greatest American favorites, Earl Caddock, will be missing. The for mer champion, and the most inter esting of all the wrestling stars. Is through forever with the game that gave him wealth and fame. Caddock, as is generally known, comes of fine American stock. He had the advantage of an excellent education and rose to be a world's champion wrestler. He served his country during the world war, was gassed while in service and when he returned was never again the Cad dock of old, and lost his- title. Life had been kind to Caddock in many ways. Ills earnings ■ a wrestler had been considerable. He had married his boyhood sweetheart before leaving for "over there’’ and he was satisfied to settle down in a little town In the west, a looked up-to man of the community, well fixed financially, with fine business pros pects and a happy home life. Inter ested In machinery, he had gone into the automobile business, had an agency and was doing very well. One day not many months ago, it is said, Caddock was at dinner with his wife when there came a knock at ms—mu i the door. He rose from the table and opened the door. A stranger stood before him. The stranger explained that he was spreading the word of God and had called on one in pros perity to help the needy. "I have no time now.” said the wrestler. "You can see me later at my place of business.” “God’s business can always wait," was the answer. . Something about thp evangelist Im pressed Caddock and he explained apologetically, "I'm eating just now.” “I have not eaten today, but 1 can wait," answered the man of God. “Come In,” said the athlete. What happened In that little room no one knows but Its three oc cupants. Hut half an hour later, when some one from Caddock'* fac tory called, they found all three on their knees. A few days later Caddock was on the streets with the evangelist help ing him to spread the Gospel. He has since given away practically ail of his worldly goods and the last heard of the former wrestling cham pion he had gone still farther west with the stranger to "help In Gods work.” His wife followed him. fit.

Rockne Never Had Contract at Notre Dame as Mentor Has Turned Down Many Good Offers Because of His Love for School. — New York, Nov. 10.—It la staled that Knute K. Rockne will shortly sign his first contract as football coach of the University of Notre Dame. Though Rockne has been coaching the Indiana players for the last 10 years he la not now and never has been under contract as their foot ball instructor and there probably would be no thought of a contract for him now if any other means of giving him a well deserved increase in salary could be devised. Rockne never wanted a contract and the Notre Dame authorities never thought it necessary to tie him up with one. Now, however, a condition has arisen which cannot be met ex cept with a contract which will be for a term of three to five years. The fact that several eastern schools, no tably Columbia, have made flatter ing offers to Rockne during the past year or so does not enter into the matter in any way. Columbia Makes Rig Offer. "Columbia offered Rockne $12,00(T a year to succeed Buck O’Neill as head coach of the Blue and White eleven," said a friend of Rockne, “and noth ing but his love for Notre Dame and a belief that his life work Is there prevented his acceptance. No let,>i ties bind him to Notre Dame. "He Is the only outstanding coach In the country who never has been under contract to the school whose teams he instructs and drills. He might have had a contract years ago, but felt that he would not deserve one unless he made good and would not need one If he did. The Notre Dame authorities, knowing that no amount of money ever could Induce him to quit his alma mater, never have tried to force a contract upon him. Must Have Contract. “At the same time, they realize that it wouldn't be fair to Rockne to permit him to work for a pittance when he might be one of the highest salaried coaches in the country if he were inclined to capitalize his skill and reputation as a coach. And in order to avoid this it is necessary, for reason which need not be enter ed Into here, that he should be Riven a .contract. “In my opinion Rockne Is one of the three greatest coaches in the game. At the same time I really believe he Is far more valuable to Notre Dame than he would be to any other college or university.” Notre Dame has done wonders this year by three straight successes, the most notable being over the Army team by the score * of 13 to 0 and over Princeton by the score of 25 to 2. "With the success of his team Knute Rockne is rapidly coming to the front as the country’s foremost coach.

The week of May 19 will see the women’s champion ship under way at Portrush, while the following week the amateur event will be held at St. Andrews. Once again the month of June has been chosen as the time for the open championship, probably the second week. A year ago the United States Golf association, the Professional Golfers' association of this country, the Professional Golfers' association of Great Britain, and the Royal and Ancient club of St. Andrews had con siderable correspondence concerning the running off of the British open meeting In May, Instead of In June as heretofore, the reason for the ad vancement of the date being so that golfers from the United States could take part. When the national open of the U. 8 G. A. Is held In July It generally means that the ‘'pros" are In for the hottest of weather, and a July date Is only chosen In order that the golf ers who go abroad to compete In Great Britain may have a chance to get back prior to the tournament. After voluminous correspondence on the subject last season it was finally agreed between the associations that things would be different In 1U24: that the British open would probably be held In Many. All of which means that If players such as Gene Sarazen, Walter Hagen, lock Hutchison and Jim Barnes compete In the British tournament, the United States meet ing will again be held In July, to al low them time to get back. The date for the Oxford-Cambridge team match to be held at Holyoke has been set for March 25 and 26. while a few other dates thus far arranged Include the Irish professional'cham pionship the week of June 4, the Irish native amateur championship June 9 and following days, and the Irish open amateur championship at Dollymount, Dublin.

By I,. C. GRAHAM. Horse racing, ns a sport, belongs to tho masses and not to the privileged few who wish to manipulate things to the benefit of their own pocket books. That is the opinion that rac ing enthusiasts of the east have and they have started out to do all that they can to stamp out such evils as exist. In an effort to make the "Sport of Kings" one of the cleanest of sport ing events, these critics and enthusi asts have suggested that stewards be appointed on all tracks, with au thority to punish any person, who ever it may be, whom they see doing something underhanded or crooked. It sounds almost impossible to just suggest such a thing, but the men who are behind the move go farther than that and tell how It may be done. Admiral Carey T. Orayson Is one of the men prominent in the movement and he has shown himself to be a true blue sportsman of a rapidly disappearing school. The plan, as suggested, Is for every Jockey club and track manage ment In the country to engage some stewards, number Immaterial, who are well enough versed In thorough bred racing to know when a Jockey is not riding his best, when a horse is "cold" or "hot,"- when cold coffee has lieen used liberally a short time before the horse goes to the post or any of the other tricks that are some times resorted to on race.tracks. There are lots of these men in the country. 'Each year sees men at the Ak-Sar-Ben meets who make horse racing a business and yet own no horses. These men are the type sug gested by the critics. In the opinion of the critics If sucli a body of stewards was organized there would be less shady work done. Tlie war that has been waged for several years against such practices has made them far more Infrequent than ever before; but they are still here. The American public wants horse racing. The public as a mass pat ronize the track now, It Is not simply a "rich mans pastime." Evidence of this fact was given when Zev raced Papyrus at Belmont Park, again when he suffered defeat by In Memorlam. more recently still, at Estonia. Every spring the enthusi asm for the "pcmies" is shown at Churchill Downs, Kentucky. The Derby crowd is often as large and larger than the crowd who attends the more modern sport of automobile racing at Indianapolis. Not long ago a man was threatened with expulsion from eastern tracks because his horses ran so erratically. The man was interested In several "books" at the track where his horses performed and It was thought that he "played both ends against the mid dle." That Is the thing these men who Rre fighting for the innovation want to do away with. If the stewards should be weak and timid they would do more harm than good. Many of the customers know enough about horses to be able to tell when a horse has "tried.” These peo ple would be disgusted If a crooked owner or trainer was not dealt with at once and would spread their dis satisfaction. Should this ruling be put into effect the stewards would have to be both strong willed and conscientious in their duty. Hut it would help the racing game to become one of the greatest sports in the world today. Pennsylvania to ^ Have Decision Goes New York. Nov. 10.—Pennsylvania is to have boxing decisions, now that boxing in that state has been placed under commission control. Two judges will vote and If they fail to agree the referee will decide. It Is unfortunate that Pennsylvania has followed New York's example In the matter of judging bouts. The present system is not a success. It is much better to have the referee name the winners and if the neighboring states had adopted that method its su periority would have been made clear. In the old days there were half a dozen referees who stood out and were as famous as the best of the fighters. The present system has so limited the responsibility of the referee that none is well known enough to be regarded as an author ity. Given the opportunity to distin guish themselves, another crop of men whdm the public could trust would soon be developed. There is no question that a referee with a coun trywide reputation to protect is more likely to give an honest and correct decision than some obscure, unknown Judge. When the votes of the Judges are kept secret the chances for s bad decision are doubled. f5!. 1'aul—Jock Malone, fit. Paul middle weight. outpointed Panama Joe Gant, negro of New York.

New York, Nov. 10—Harry Will* has been offered another opportunity to prove his contention that ha i* as good as ever. The New Jersey pro moters would like to match him with Jack Renault. Hero is an excellent chance for Wills to demonstrate his ability against an opponent of some stand ing. No doubt Tex Rickard would like to take over Ibis morsel for hia Palace of Swat, but Wills foolishly has placed Rickard on the blacklist as far as making any money for th* promoter is concerned. The negro believes that Rickard wag one of the Important cogs In the machinery which kept him away from a match with Jack Dempsey, and for this rea son lie will have nothing to do with the Garden promoter. While Rickard never expressed any wild desire to put on a Dempsey Wills match, it is doubtful if he ever went to any great lengths to keep these two fighters apart, unless arranging the Dempsey Firpo affair could be considered as such. With the Garden removed as a sit* for a Wills match, the next beat place seems to be .New Jersey. Renault should furnish enough op position for the fans to get a line on Wills' ability. If Harry is as good aa he claims to be, he should have littla difficulty with either of these fighters. Renault Is particularly anxious to take on Wills. Ever since the j Canadian met 11 fightcryin a row, . whom he toppled over without much trouble, he has t-een on Wills’ trail, as he figures a decisive victory over the negro would put him In line for a match with Dempsey, which he claims is his main objective JuOt at present. While Johnson has not hurled any defies In the dusky bat tler's face, he did tell a few friends at Madison Square Garden the other night that he was perfectly willing to meet Wills If the proper oppor tunity presented Itself. Renault seems the more anxious to fight Wills and Is firmly convinced that the negro would give him very little trouble. :* '*2 Nothing more than a single ride in the New Peerless Eight is needed to establish its far reaching superiority.
