E. Barry (Bowdoln) Field Judge C. W. OInejr By FRED UPPER Jr. "College football is a racquet run for the sole purpose of making money.

That statement is no news to sporting fans the country over yet no sports writer has ever quite put the matter so boldly. But John R. Tunis, who pens a column for the metropolitan sheets, took his life in his hand and, in the November Issue of American Mercury demanded "an end to hypoc-. risy and asks "that college players be paid what they are worth." O. K.

John. That's your story. But wait a minute. There's more. Never call this boy Tunis a coward.

He's not through yet. "For years, there has been no chance for an Intelligent person to argue about professionalism in college athletes. Yet in some institutions of higher learning, football is a racket run by thugs and fringed by gamblers and gangsters; In others, the sport Is conducted by timid gentry who would like to make it a financial success as the gamblers do, but haven't the nerve. It has been an open secret for years that certain highly professionalized college teams, or rather one or two members of these teams, have been reached by gamblers. Are games thrown? Yes, sometimes.

Everybody knows It and admits It except a few sports-writing ostriches, adolescent alumni and those who stamp the title Graduate-Manager of Athletics beneath their signatures." We seem to have caught Tunis in a vitriolic move. Diatribe and caustic cancer. There's no limit. These are mere words. He has a few more surprises up his editorial sleeve.

He even names the professional teams. You want to hear. Well! Here's the works. The professional schools, the schools that pay their athletes outright are Princeton (that hurts, doesn't it), Boston College, Columbia, Alabama, Minnesota, Fordham, Georgetown, Louisiana State, Marquette, Michigan State, Northwestern, Ohio State (remember Prof. George Owen of M.

I. Oregon, St. Mary's, Syracuse, Southern California, Temple, Texas Christian, Tulane, Villanova, Washington, Western Maryland and West Virginia. While In the mood, brother John has gone further. He classes the semi-professional college teams In which rank and file come Army, Boston University, Harvard, Dartmouth, Notre Dame, North Carolina, Yale and others.

He admits, grudgingly, that there are some amateurs on the list, colleges without the nerve to hire men. On this roster Is, can you believe it, Colby, Middlebury, Vermont, Union, etc. In other words, colleges who have never penetrated into the higher stratum of football success and probably never will. And now Tunis advocates that the football players of the professional colleges be paid, openly and aboveboard. "Let's have a minimum wage for athletes.

Of course, such a step would make football in reality what we pretend it isn't a tremendous business with tentacles over the whole educational world. But such a step would nevertheless be undeniably sensible. It would be intellectually honest and consistent with educational ideals. In brief, what I'm trying to say is; for God's sake, a little logic! Or Is that asking too much?" Rattlers and copperheads are the only poisonous snakes native to Pennsylvania. The Chinese were the first race to make sausage centuries ago.

With cuts of Lawton and Quadros Guarding a faint hope of shaking off the injury Jinx that has spotted the fall campaign, the University of Vermont Catamount, with the vet- rnrm nn in arms And mdv for the wan, faees New Hampshire State at 2 o'clock this afternoon at Centennial Field. It Is the first home game for the Oreen and Gold and the first visit of the Wildcats here since 1933 when Vermont pinned a stun-nincr 13 to 0 defeat on the Invaders Frankly. New Hampshire Is the stronger team this afternoon. But Vermont will have co-captains Aus tin Ross and Bob Lawton back on the firing line for the first time in three weeks, the veteran Bill Bedford will be at quarter and Russ Sunderland, who was injured three weeks ajro. will start at fullback.

With Jim O'Neil playing with one hand In i rnxt but definitely ready for 60 mm iitpn anri T.irvskv sure to see some service, the Catamounts will field the strongest line-up since the Williams game when they revealed defensive power. Will Use Sunderland How long the regulars will stay in the battle is another question but Coach 5a bo Intends to shoot the works while he can and that means that russ Sunderland will be bombard inz passes from the backfield. Paul Berry, dimunitive full, will be shifted to halfback offensively, backing the line-up to save Sunderland's arm while O'Nell at left half and Bedford round out the backfield. Inability of the left aide of the Vermont line to bear the brunt of the Colby and Union power plays cost the Catamounts two games. wnn Ross ready for duty, the forward wall will be much stronger In that territory and Lawton will add power to the right flank.

Prepares Air Attack In the face of the bruising attack New Hampshire will loose today, Sabo has prepared an aerial attack for an antidote. With the weather clear and the track fast. Vermont will deploy in spread formations during the day the hope of getting a back loose on a forward or lateral pass. Dave Jones, brilliant 160 pound running back from Schenectady. N.

will be inserted Into the struggle as the cnier running threat while Jack Bedell may be called back Into the backfield from his center berth to pass. Poor kicking has also played havoc with Vermont chances in late games and Ross, star punter of 1935. will re turn to bolster that department this afternoon. Alhough he has not yet attained the distance he was getting in early season, his presence will pay dividends on accuracy and aepenaa bility. New Hampshire Is Strong New Hampshire, of course, ranks as one of the most powerful small college teams in New England ranks.

It has demonstrated that convincingly this season, smearing Lowell Textile 66 to 0 in a stunning demonstration of power, battering down Bates 9 to 6 and then missing fire in the last quarter as Maine slipped away on three long runs for a 27 to 7 triumph. Last week. In a quagmire, Boston College pounded out a 12 to 0 victory. That small margin of victory was the most undoubted demonstration that this Cowell creation has arrived this fall. Walter "Mike" Mirey and Tom Giarla.

a pair of veteran backs, equally fast In a broken field and good pass receivers, will form the nucleus of the Wildcat attack with Charlie Karazia. 200 pound behemoth, alternating in line-bucks. Jerry Quadros pilots the team at quarter and handles the punting and safety assignments. The New Hampshire line, with man-mountain Shirley Mountain at tackle, 235 pounds of dynamite, will outweigh the Vermont forward wall almost ten pounds to a man. Ed Little and Arnold Rogean at the flanks.

Russ Martin and Mountain at the tackles. Ben Lang and Ben Lekesky at guards and Francis Roslnski at center comprise a formidable battering squad. The Wildcats weigh In at 188 pounds from end to end. just nine pounds more than the lighter Catamount wall while the visiting backfield is a much heavier unit than the starting Green and Gold carrying quartet. A Boulder Week Feature Today's game is a feature of Boulder Week, sponsored by the honorary senior society at the University.

The game has been scheduled at this time to permit fans and players to attend the Vermont-New Hampshire conflict.

Wlnooskl carries most of the dynamite In this struggle between two of the State's smaller schools. The Millers have tied Mount Assumption and dropped a 20 to 18 decision at Middlebury, who trounced Montpelier 24 to last week. In Zum LaPolnte. Coach Lanahan has one of the finest triple-threat backs in State ball. The Millers will play today without the services of Harry Mills, ace passer and plunging fullback.

At least, said Lanahan last night, he will not start. Mills sustained a hip Injury in practice and will not appear unless his presence is absolutely necessary. In his absence, Lefebrvo will go to fullback with Vlllemalre and Desautels at the halves. Newport has defeated Littleton, N. 8 to 0, lost to Montpelier by two touchdowns, St.

Johnsbury Academy by one and tied Woodsv'ille, N. in Its four games to date. Coach Barry Branon has two teams of equal merit but no outstanding player. In anticipation of the Winooski attack, he has drilled his club all week to stop passes and end runs and feels that Newport will uncover a powerful defense this afternoon.

NEW HAMPSHIRE TEAM WORKS OUT AT BARRE (Special to tht free Press) BARRE. Oct. 23. Arriving here about 3:30 o'clock this afternoon the University of New Hampshire football team held a snappy workout at the Barre recreation field. The squad of 28 men, accompanied by Coaches Christianson and Lundholm, are remaining here overnight and will leave at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning for Burlington, where they play the University of Vermont In the afternoon.

three-letter men, co-captains and chief threats, will appear this afternoon with Rosy Ro-berge and Harold Deneault. Deneault, substituting for Freeman at Spauld lnir. showed so much ability in run ning the club, that he gets the call at quarter today. Roberge, who has tallied two of the four Burlington touchdowns, is distinctly an open field threat and may break loose on n. naat or lateral at any time for a score.

Freeman, of course, and Jack Simonson, passing threat, will alternate with the starting group in the backfield. Functioning from the double wlnc-hack- and emnlovinir the razzle dazzle, forward-lateral, style of offense that Coach Evans brought to the Red Raiders from their more famous contemporaries, the Red Raiders of Colgate, Rutland will be a dangerous offensive club. Captain Dick Trombley is touted as their particular ball of fire and it was his play that beat Burlington a year ago. Coach Hard announced that there would be no chances in the Blue and White forward fwall with Jack Hawkins and Whitev Labrecaue on the ends, Bern Ritchie and Peterson at tackles, Bill Moulton and Vic Prim at guards and Paul Landry at center. of nis tackling prowess, Moulton will be shifted to pivot in defense, Middlebury High Vs.

Bellows Falls High This P. M. (Special to the Press) MIDDLEBURY, Oct. 23. The third home game of the season will be played on the fair grounds Sat urday, Middlebury High school op posing the Bellows Falls High school eleven.

Judging by comparative scores, the locals. are favored to win as Bellows Falls lost to the Organ Grinders of Brattleboro 40-0 and Middlebury lost to them 20-0. Mid dlebury has had a good season so far with three victories and one de feat from Brattleboro. Captain Glon none, shifty quarterback for the lo cals is the third highest scorer in the State and Ross, his teammate, holds fifth place. The locals will be at full strength and promise an other victory.

Several experts pre dieted a season without a victory, but this theory has been upset and at the close of the season will prob ably see Middlebury with a high ranking in the State.

Di Maggio, regarded in these parts as the greatest major league freshman since Ty Cobb, recalled Mel Harder as "the toughest pitcher" he faced during the regular American League season. The Cleveland right hander, he said, had him jinxed with a fast sinker ball and a "swell curve." Lazzeri's league nemesis was Lynn "Schoolboy" Rowe of Detroit. "Row has a good fast ball, great curve and perfect control. I wish he would stay out of my way."

The Vermont frosh encounter the Ver mont School of Agriculture harriers over the three mile grind live minutes earlier. Lamson, suffering from a pulled side muscle, will not run today as Coach Archie Post wishes to take no chances of further injury. Vermont will enter the Harvard Invitation meet next week and must be at full strength to place well.

Spaulding High Opponent Today (Special to the Free Pras Barre, Oct. 23. Spaulding will play Lyndon Institute in the fourth game of the season tomorrow at the Recreation field at 2:30 p.

m. The Spaulding lineup will be hardly recognisable because of the many shifts which Coach Wilbur has been forced to make because of illness and Injury. Barquin, right half, is through for at least three weeks with a cracked collarbone. McDonald, who played a bang-up game at tackle last Saturday in the slime at St. Albans, Is out for two weeks with a badly sprained ankle.

Tut George and Captain Ennis art both suffering from groin injuries sustained in the game last week. George will be unable to play at all, and Ennis will be used sparingly. The backfield will be all new except for Caccavo at quarterback. Morse' will play fullback, Rossi right half, and Houston left half. This backfield has looked very good in practice on running plays but lacks an accurate passer.

Vittori, regular center, has been unable to practice because of a bad cold, but he will be in shape to start the game tomorrow. Lyndon is reputedly strong this year, especially in the line. Coach Lewis is faced with a lack of good backfield material. Especially does he miss his two aces of last year, Slyce and Fairchild- A rugged line and some fair backs seems to be the situation at Lyndon. They played St.

Albans to a scoreless tie as did Spaulding, which should augur a last spring with WPA funds. The chute was completed, the ski Jump partiauy constructed, two sets of stair ways built from the top of the North avenue hill to the foot running Into the Intervale and a shelter was erect ed. But the work lapsed in late June It must be completed before frost enters the ground or the whole project will be of little use for sporting enthusiastlcs this winter. Lyman C. Hunt, superintendent of city schools, stated yesterday that the project will definitely be com pleted before snow flies.

He said that a crew of men would be detailed to work there next week and that the entire skiing and toboggannlng play ground would be ready within another fortnight. Upon completion by the WPA, the project will be turned over to the city park department for maintenance. An investigation yesterday revealed that installation of lights for night use, a larger shelter to provide warmth for the frost bitten and supervision by a competent staff Would be other necessities required to round out this admirable mecca for the winter-minded.

Ideal Set-up For Grid Upsets In Today's Games Anything May Happen on Several Gridirons Beginning With the Clash of Notre Dame and Pittsburgh at Pittsburgh NEW YORK, Oct. 23. (IF) Witlf the pressure turned on or off, according to the angle from which this Saturday's football festivities are viewed, there's an ideal setup for upsets, from coast to coast. Here are the principal spots where anything may happen: Notre Dame At Pittsburgh The Panthers, knocked off last week by Duquesne, hope to spring a form reversal at Notre Dame's expense. To win, Pitt must recapture the combination of power and defense that it showed earlier against Ohio State.

Notre Dame's attack has been developed by easier stages. The Irish, well primed with everything, including reserves, get the call. St. Mary's At Fordham Travel is beneficial to the mental attitude, opines Edward (Slip) Madi-gan, coach of St. Mary's cross-country caravan.

On the theory that It has eased the shock of a scoreless tie last Sunday with San Francisco, the Gaels figure to break down Ford-ham's acknowledged fine defense. Purdue At Minnesota Gathering momentum since the tragic pre-season death of two stars, Purdue's Boilermakers take this week's crack at the nations' most prominent array of gridiron talent. Minnesota, the No. 1 team until proved otherwise, is the choice. The margin, if any, likely wont be comparable to last year's 29-7 rout.

Duk At Tennessee Anyone who has seen them in action on their own grounds knows how tough Bob Neyland's Volunteers are to beat. Tennesse has been coming along, as indicated by holding Alabama to a scoreless tie last week, but the Vols lack the all-around power or class to cope with Duke, the nation's No. 2 team by current calculations. Nebraska At Oklahoma After two bruising battles in succession, for an even break with big ten opposition, the Oornhuskers tackle their principal rival for big six honors. If Sam Francis and his mates can keep up the pace, Nebraska figures to win but this is the game for which Major Biff Jones has been pointing his sturdy Sooners.

Southern Cal. At Stanford Going nowhere in particular, Stanford is in a fine spot to shoot the works against a comparatively green team. The outcome may reveal whether Southern California, tied last week by Washington State, has been overrated, u. S. C.

is indi cated, with reservations. Navy At Princeton Unless each is still dizzy trying to figure out how they took a trim' ming last week, the Middles and Tig ers should put on one or tne n-asta best exhibits. Both have power to burn but the payoff is still based on what the scoreboard shows. Prince ton gets the comeback call. All told, this Saturday's slate seems to carry more drawing power than any this season.

Advance indica tions point to crowds of 40,000 or more at seven outstanding engage ments in the East, Mid-West and Far West. The biggest turnouts. 70. 000 Is predicted for the Pitt-Notre Dame game. Down East Down East, the shell-shocked Har vard hope to surprise Dartmoutn out the edge Is with the Oreen.

Holy Cross, unbeaten in four starts, encounters perhaps its toughest test against Carnegie before 25,000 at Worcester. The Crusaders get the call, but It's none too loud. Yale hopes to get past Rutgers with the Eli shock troops. Pennsylvania figures to get the touchdowns and Brown the exercise at Philadelphia. Cornell's impetus.

trained by trimming Syracuse last week, Is likely to carry the Ithacans to victory over Perm State. Syracuse will have to show Improvement to hold Maryland, let alone win. Col' gate beat Lafayette 52-0 last year but may be lucky to win at all in tomorrow's tussle. Michigan, with an offense able to produce only ten points in three games, doesn't figure to repeat its 1935 upset of Lou Little's hard-charging Columbia outfit. Sid Luckman, sopho more pasing star, may give the Wol verines the best aerial show they've seen since Harvard's Barry Wood performed at Ann Arbor.

Tulane, at the rapid pace it has been going, looks to have too much power for North Carolina's Tarheels in one of the Souths, biggest inter-sectional matches. Louisiana State similarly looks too "strong for the roving Razorbacks of Arkansas. bus to the recreation field where they went through a snappy one hour drill Punting, forward -passing, and kicking off were stressed, the session be-e riding with a signal drill of 15 minutes duration.

Sports Trail By PAUL MICKELSON PITTSBURGH, Oct. 23.

(Ph-Football has floored Pittsburgh for a long count. The great steel city, where the red hot pig iron flies, unquestionably is the maddest football city of its size or any size in the nation with its populace of some 700,000 souls split into noisy warring factions over the greatness and superiority of three of the finest college teams In the land the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Tech and little Duquesne that lay within the city's limits. Pittsburgh sports writers, who don't get much chance to use their superlatives while chronicling the activities of Pie Traynor's baseball Pirates in the summertime, lead a dizzy existence in the fall. Their fan mall from super-heated city football fans is surprising. Not one of them picked Duquesne to beat Pitt and the letters they received were scorchers.

After the game, a few fans, out of hand with the frenzy of victory, even stoned the press box where the hard conscientious authors were writing of the Duquesne football epic. The frenzy doesn't stop with the college teams. In the pro field, the city is represented by the Pittsburgh Pirates, current leaders of the eastern division of the National pro league, and the Americans, who are op and coming In the rival circuit. An example of the city's football menu of which it never seems to tire: One week, 18,000 watched the Pirates and Philadelphia Eagles play on Wednesday night; Friday night, 20,000 watched Bicknell and Duquesne; Saturday afternoon, a throng of 62,000 looked on at Pittsburgh and Notre Dame, while on Sunday 27,000 were In the stands for the Pirate-Chicago Bear pro game four games in five days and drawing a total of 127,000 fans. Tomorrow, when undefeated and mysterious Notre Dame clashes against the Pittsburgh Panther, a sell out crowd of 72,500 is expected to watch the battle.

Scalpers tonight were asking as high as $50 a ticket. One fan, turned down at the ticket office, came up with two tickets today. His friends asked him how he got them. "Dont teD anyone," he whispered, "but I've used my system for years. When all else fails, I look up the obituary column in the newspaper and then make some calls to see If there are any unused football tickets around.

It's worked so far. BRANDON Garden Club Meets With Mrs. James Scott Kemp-Baker Wedding Flowers as a decorating medium and flowers for fragrance were given attention by the Garden Club when it met Thursday afternoon with Mrs. James Scott. Mrs.

F. C. Schuster's article had for Its caption, 'One Hundred and One Ways to Win a Woman," which set, forth a florist's problems in pleasing the feminine sex.

Mr. and Mrs. W. F. O'Brien have North Avenue Winter Sports Project, Begun Last Spring, Will Be Completed Forthwith Winter sports enthusiastlcs, and that means the expert and novice skier, boy and girl toboganners and even Junior with his home-made barrel-stave contraption, can look forward to an ideal recreational center this winter, providing, of course, that construction is completed on the large WPA project started last spring on North avenue.

At present a 150 foot toboggan chute rolls Invitingly down the huge embankment into the Intervale, a ski Jump, which will run between 40 and 70 feet, promises thrills nearby, and a coasting hill, excellent for both the experienced and the rank beginner, is available. Unfortunately however, these are not finished. There is more work to be done.
