John Pa Grosa, president of the American Football Institute, asserted today that some of the country's leading football coaches unwittingly are promoting a gambling mania which threatens to undermine the foundations of the game.

When Owynne Tayloe, of Mlddle-burg, 1D38 raptaln, fell from a caisson which rolled over him, breaking two bones of his left arm, he was the fourth to suffer the Jinx that has dogged the path of Military Institute stars.

"I can ace absolutely no reason for the Untied States not to participate," snid Bonthron. "To Involve the religious question In the field of athletics Is ridiculous. Our failure to be represented at the games would be a disgrace In the annals of the American sport" Cunningham was Just as emphattc.

"I feel that tho situation regarding discrimination against certain athletes In Germany Is greatly overemphasized," he said. Fulls To Find Fault "When competed In Germany In 1R33 there was talk In this country about discrimination there, but my personal observations failed to find any justification for such publicity. "My feeling Is that more harm than good will come from withholding the U. S. team from the 1036 games.

It certainly will not change conditions in Germany and It will nurt athletics In this country." Joe McCluskey, Fordham star, who has won 14 national track titles, said failure of the United States to participate would be a tremendous disappointment to every athlete aspiring to make the team. Glenn Hardin, quarter roller, and Jack Torrance, shot putter.

"During a tour of Germany In 1B33, never once was or any other member of the American team, mistreated in any manner, Therefore I have no reason to believe I would be mistreated If I were successful enough to make the 1936 Olympic team," The pamphlet also contained opinions from Major John I. Griffiths, president of the National Collegiate Athletic association, and Amos Alonzo Stagg. head coach at the College of the Pacific. "Thp committee should abide by Its original decision and send a team to Germany." Griffiths said.

Experts Stumped In Picking; Winner Of Outstanding Contest STATISTICS UNRELIABLE Ohioans Have Outgained Irish But Have Met Weaker Teams NEW YORK, Oct.

28. (AP) It appears as difficult to "dope" the winner of the Ohio State-Notre Dame football argument this Saturday as it is to get a ticket on the 50-yard line at Columbus for the "game of the year." The job will become 1 no easier, rapidly, by the end of the week. That's why close to 90.000 or more will Jam the Ohio State double decked atadlum to the rafters to see two of America's outstanding unbeaten teams battle for sectional supremacy, if not a large slice of national championship honors and an Invitation to the Rose Bowl. The same occupies much the same spot that the Mlnnesota-PlttslHirch battle did a year ago. It's the Sn.

I tost of the season for each team. It's alo a fair forerust that the winner will go on to the flnlth an tinlileniMirrl campaign of triumph. Notre Uame has at least one more big obstacle, West Point, In the path of an all-conquering drive, but there's nothing in sight capable of stopping the But-kcves, unless the Irish do it this Saturday. Buckeyes Have Edge fl'rlctly on a basis of comparative figures, Ohio State looks like the winner. The "scarlet scourge" has piled up tremendous yardage In four cames, on the ground as well aa through the air.

Taking the averages per game, Ohio State has gained three yards for every two by NotriA Dame, at rushing, and three yards1 lor every one by the Irish at forward passing. For what they are worth, here are the comparative figures, showing the averages based on four gnmos for Ohio State and five for Notre Dame: Av. score per game 40 18 2-s Av. opp. score 6', 3 1-5 Av.

No. first downs ..23 la Average rushing. 272 183 Av. No. passes tried mi 8 3-5 Av.

No. passes comp. 3 1-5 Av. yds. gained, passes 146 4 62 2-5 Unfortunately for the dopesters, football games are not decided on this basis.

Gridiron statistics are notoriously unreliable. Ohio state's high averages, for example, are due. mainly to the huge gains made in swamping Drake 85 to 7. The Bucks piled up 424 from scrimmage and gained 238 additional yards by passing against Drake, Pass Attack Powerful The passliie; record of the "arurlet scouree" Is the most Impressive part of the Mill hi lull table. Ohio Sliitel employs a mure diversified passing same, fent tiring laterals as well as forwards.

Vet it Is a salient fact, not detected in the uvcracrs, that Notre name's aerial attack M. licked for the first time against 1 Navy last Saturday. The Irish completed five out of nine passes for gains of 104 yards while Ohio Mate was completing 1 1 out or 22 aerials for an even 100 yards. Taken as a whole. It Is doubtful If Ohio Slate's opposition, consisting of Kentucky.

Drake, Northwestern and Indiana, furnished as severe a test as the five games In which Notre Dame whipped Kansas. Carnegie. Wisconsin. Pittsburgh and the Navy. However, ft took a field goal to beat Pittsburgh, which outrushed the Irish.

Both teams have extraordinary manpower, with the talent at least three deep In each position.
