To the Vivian team, coached by Elbert Bush, goes the honor of being the first to cross tha Gibsland goal in golf because he is always the unexpected, has a penchant for coming from behind and in the crisis usually pulls some phenomenal shot that proves to be the turning point in the match. Hagen is a chance-taker.

He believes in overrunning the cup rather than falling short, on the theory that you can't hole out if you fail to reach the cup. Bill Tilden of teenis fame is not unlike Hagen in his methods. He is most spectacular in his play and seems to do his best, when hardest pressed. I Ty Cobb is recognized as beseball's greatest player of all times because there was nothing too difficut for him to attempt. He has been a chance-taker throughout his entire career.

A tremendous batting punch, the ability to bit a ball farther than any other human, being, has made Babe Ruth the greatest of idols. Walter Johnson's power to throw the. ball a trifle faster than any other twirler has made hira outstanding among pitchers. In his prime Johnson struct out opposing batters with the same reckless abondon that Ruth makes home runs off rival pitchers. Jack Dempsey, while champion, provided masy a thrill with his dynamite fists.

So it is easy to understand why the "take-a-chance ethletes are the most popular. No thrills were ever provided in sport by safety-first methods. Yard Run to Goal impossible to distinguish the players, Syd Hurst's victory over L. B. Rob inson, and 2, to win the second annual Pallas invitation tourney, is at-tributed to skill in the short game and strict adherence to golf form.

Hurst is the Dallas champion and widely known as the Lakewood club stylist. In his match with Hurst, Robinson hotly contested every hole, and it was only through his skill in the short play, brought' about by splendid golf form, that he came through a winner. A great many of the newcomers in the ranks of golfdoni are prone to treat golf form lightly, resulting in their own disadvantages in tournament L. B.

The El Dorado high school Wildcats proved the best "mud horses" this afternoon in downing the Camden Panthers, 11 to 0 in a contest that started in a downpour of rain. Condition of the field prevented good football and the game was little more' than an exchange of punts with a series of fumbles. Although the visitors threatened to score early in the first "quarter a fumble ruined things and the game went scoreless through the first El Dorado's first score came in the third quarter when after a series of line bucks Morris went over for a touchdown.

Camden was off sides and the goal counted. Kinard, stellar end, added six more points in the final period when he scooped up a fumble on the 60-yard line and raced for a touchdown. Holmes added the extra point Today's victory put the Wildcats well on their way as a for the state title. They hav four games with no defeats.

LONG SPRINT IN FINAL MINUTE SAVES HARVARD By JOSEPH GORDON (rnlverttl Serrlte Staff Correspondent.) Harvard-, Stadium, "Cambridge, Oct. minute to play and the thin, Crimson line stood solid. Just one minute to play, trailing the score, the ball amidfield, their position apparently hopeless, a rejunvenated and inspired Harvard team came into its own here Saturday afternoon and for the first time in Jour years defeated Dartmouth's powerful eleven by a score of 16 to 12. One minute to play, the score 12 to 10 in favor of Dartmouth, the ball far away from their goal posts. The crowd was already beginning to approach the gates.

Even the Harvard section inwardly feeling that the cause was lost. Harvard bad the ball and were scrimmaging. Harvard's players alone refused to give up hope. And then something happened. French carried the ball through right tackle, carried it down half tho length of the field for 47 yards and a touchdown.

The play was so simple and lacking in what they call inside stuff that most of the 65,000 boys, and girls who saw the game still don't know just what happened. French's long run was the only thing that could have saved Harvard. The Crimson had plenty of teeth this day, but so did the Indian. Time was limited and the Dartmouth team aaw a fourth successive victory. And then along came French.

The Dartmouth team went after him in a body but they were not quite fast enough. Frehcli knew that all depended on him, and never vri his best days did Paavo Nurmi run half as fast. He caught Doolcy flatfoot-ed. Dooley Stood there, surprised at everything, 'dumbfounded by everything. Hedidnt'-evepi as much as make a lunge the.

DRAKE DEFEATS; MISSISSIPPI SQUAD ON MUDDY FIELD Dos Moines, Oct. 23 University won its first viotory of the season today, when it defeated Mississippi University here 33 to 13. The game was played in a steady rain that caused numerous fumbles, but was marked by some long run, despite the uncertain footing. The long range booting of Walker, Mississippi quarter, also was a feature.

Chuck Everett and Sutherland were Drake's Individual-stars, the former reeling off two long sprints for touchdowns, and the latter running 30 yard for another despite the fact he was tackled four times. The final gun found Sutherland at the Missisr sippi line with another marker in prospect, V. Smith and Lilly carried the ball for Mississippi's two touchdowns. The southerners' other, points came on a safety and point afi.er touchdown. Mississippi was clearly the better at punting, Walker's toe accounting for most of the 400 yards gained in that manner.

Drake's hooters gained 367 yards. The Bulldogs had a long head, however, in scrimmage, with 280 yards gained to Mississippi's 130. Passes accounted for little of the yardage en either side. VANDY CONQUERS GEORGIA RIVAL IN CLOSE GAME Nashville, Tenri, Oct. 23 (P).

Vsn-derbilt defeated Georgia Saturday. 34 to 13, in a game of surprises, thrills and gripping suspense. As far as the "dope" was concerned, the teams trotted onto the field with odds even. It was thought generally here team could win. The too of Bill Spears, Vanderbilt quarterback, provided the margin which proved Sufficient to win, when he scored his point after touchdown, just one more tims than his adversaries.

The try of Broadnax after Georgia's first touchdown was blocked by the Vanderbilt defense, but Hollis' was more accurate and put the ball between the posts when the Bulldog had pushed it across the line the second time. The struggle through tho three-quarters proved the dope correct and the quiet nervo and accurate booting of Spears provided the breaking of the deadlock. It was a game where Vanderbilt "beat the Georgians when it came to -gaining ground, but where the Georgians were the -more crafty and less pliable in a pinch. -o Michigan Rides to WiA Over Illinois EleVen Ann Oct. 23 -VP).

Michigan and Illinois swapped horses on Ferry field Saturday and Michigan rode her borrowed nag to a 13 to 0 conference1 victory. Illinois' scoring hopes centered around the drop kick-ing, place kicking toe of the redoubtable Frosty Peters. Michigan's success was augured in terms ot Benny Friedman's forward pisses. But Michigan took Illinois' entry and Illinois took Michigan's Friedman's place kidks, not 'Peters', were the ones that shot like bullets the cross bars. Illinois passes, not Friedman's, were-the ones that eonstituted the most serious every minute of play at the signal caller's position and shared honors with Tinnelle in the backfield work.

A while ago the wires carried a story that "Moose" Clabaugk of the Tyler team of the East Texas league had broken all homerun records by cracking out 62 in 120 games. In averaging hertter than one home run for every two games, Clabaugh smashed the minor league record of 60 held by Tony Lazzeri of the Xew York Yankees and the major league record of 69 made by Babe Lazzeri, made his record in 1925 with Salt Lake of the Pacific Coast league. He played in 197 games. Overnight the name of "Moose" Clabaugh was featured in every newspaper that boasts a sports page. Major league clubs immediately began to bid for his services.

Brooklyn landed hijn. No one claims any great prowess for Clabaugh as an outfielder but every ono who has seen him in action insists he takes a mean swing at the ball. There you have the reason for the sudden fame that has been thrust on Clabaugh. He is a do-and-dare athlete who packs a punch. Consider the stars in the various branches of sport and invariably the athlete who takes a chance provides' thrills, packs a punch, gets the big gallery.

Greb was popular known as the "Pittsburgh Windmill," but he al30 answered to the nama of the "Indian Rubber Man." He was one of the few fighters who could box in three different divisions and be rated as a first-class artist in either of the three. Greb won bis greatest boners fs a middleweight, but was able to perform as a light-beavyweight, and even take on heavyweights.

For years he was persistent in his challenge for a bout with Jaek Dempsey, and after he had outboxed Tommy Gibbons in New York there were many who believed the 'Windmill" could have danced 10 sessions with the famous "Jack the Giant Killer." When things grew dull in the middleweight class Greb moved up to tha liirht-heavics. When a prom- I ising middleweight appeared on the i smn he dropped back to the smaller class for an engagement. Greb's greatest asset was speed. He punched from ill angles at rapid-fire clip. In the last few years his speed was net only confined to the prize ring.
