Pretty Beu-lah Gundling of Cedar Rapids switched from speed to synchronized swimming and this year won the national AAU championship in the new sport.

Harry Gundling, husband of Beulah, describes synchronized swimming as a "rapidly-growing style of swimming that specializes in symmetry, grace, beauty and even poetry in swimming." Beulah gained her first important synchronized swimming title in 1949 when she won the International Open Trophy event at Toronto, Canada. She also was awarded second place in the International solo competition at Detroit last year. Then this year, at Florida's Cypress Gardens, she gained the national crown. Swimmers perform their own water routines in these competitions, and are judged as in diving. Mrs.

Gundling, who was the beauty selected for the college yearbook when she was graduated from Coe college here, composes her own routines, drawing on her ballet and tap-dancing experience for some of the graceful maneuvers. As a speed swimmer, she was medliey and breast stroke winner at the Minneapolis Aquaten-uial event in 1948, and has held the Iowa AAU breast stroke title as well as the district AAU half-mile free-style crown. She will demonstrate her routines in San Francisco at the Crystalcade, December 1, 2, 3 and at the national women's aquatic forum In Hollywood, in late December. By L. E.

TAYLOR SPINK of The Sporting News The split-T football's newest offensive formation which threatens to split every defense and has carried Bud Wilkinson and his Oklahoma Sooners to the top of the gridiron pile is also producing another football renaissance.

Lehigh University, which was one of the gridiron's elite 30 years ago, is roaring back into pigskin prominence on the kick. It was shortly after that point that Coatta went In to replace Bob Petruska who had been getting the call in most of Wisconsin's previous games. Coatta connected on 13 of 17 forward passes, including the two for touchdowns. In all, 15 completed passes in 22 tries gave the Badgers 216 yards on aerials. The Wildcats outgained them on the ground 212 to 101 yards.

Midway in the third period, Wisconsin started a march from its own 23. It moved on to the 47 on passes and some good running by sophomore Roy Burks. From that point Coatta hit End Gene Felker with a pass. Felker faked two Northwestern backs out of position, reversed his field and raced for a touchdown. Pass Fays Off In the final period Wisconsin went 67 yards for another score with Coatta again In the key roll with his passes.

Leckonby and his coaches use a wide split-T; guards at least a yard and a half from the center, tackles even further away from the guards if they wish.

G. T. Spink In short, quick darts, five, six. seven yards at a time.

There is not much opportunity for the interference to take out the secondary and pave the way for long runs, but it brings the clever sidestepper, the spectacular dodging ball carrier, into the spotlight. It adds color, gives the man in the stands an opportunity to see what is going on In every spot. It makes football like baseball wide open. It encourages Individuality, puts a premium on brains. One man learns to handle one man, coax, jockey or knock him out of position for the ball carrier.

"If you can't get him in, get him out, and our ball carrier will pick the best way to go," says Leckonby. It takes big men, smart men, to play the split-T, but It pays off in touchdowns. Bud Wilkinson and Bill Leckonby and Don Faurot, who Invented it, will vouch for that. Neale Given an Assist In Giants' Wins Here Is the inside story of the New York Giants' surprising defeats of the Cleveland Browns in the National Football League, 6 to 0 and then 17 to 13. The man behind the upsets is Greasy Neale, coach of the Philadelphia Eagles.

Neale thought he had a defense against the great passing attack of Paul Brown's men but the Clevelanders manhandled his Eagles in the first game of the season. The next day Neale took the complete blame for the setback. "I made a mistake in my defense," he said. That night he contacted Steve Owen, coach of the Giants. "I think I can help you when you play the Browns," he said.

The next week Neale spent two days in New York. When the Ohloans met the Giants they were beaten, 6 to 0. The next time they bowed, 17 to 13. Neale's revenge will not be complete, however, until the Eagles upset Brown's men! And Now Scouting by Video Scouting by TV? Sure. Listen to this.

On October 13, Coach Al Kawal of Temple sent Pete Stevens, assistant coach to Boston to scout the Boston college-Fordham game, while Kawal, awaiting the next day's game with Rutgers, sat on the eighth floor of the Roger Smith hotel in New Brunswick, N. and saw the Eagles play the Rams on TV. He took notes on the formations during the progress of play. The next day, when Stevens brought in his report, Kawal astounded him by knowing as much about the plays as he did. "I had a better seat," said Kawal.

"I'll bet you did," admitted Stevens. "They stuck me in the back of the stands near third base at Fenway Park." Balance of Power in West, Southwest There seems to be no question that, with the exception of Army, the balance of power in football has shifted to the West and Southwest. The Big Ten Is powerful, but Oklahoma, Texas and California would be the most likely to upset the Cadets. Pennsylvania, however, is rapidly regaining its place at the top. The Red and Blue won't hit the peak this year.

But the "Gates" are down, and when Notre Dame comes to Franklin Field in 1952 the Red and Blue will be ready with the paddles to get even tor the two overwhelming defeats handed them by the Irish in the early '30s. The Quakers could be national champions in '52. The most notable trend in football this year, however, is the game's swing away from war veterans to the fuzzy-cheeked kids, which accounts, in part, for the many upsets. They are "spirit" The Reason for That Drop in Crowds Football attendance, like baseball's, in the month of September, haf shown a marked decline so far this season. The University of Pennsylvania, one of the bulwarks of the East, is off 25 per cent.

Professional football gates have dropped alarmingly. Crowds of 18,000 to 20,000 even as low as 7,000 have the pros a bit worried. Smaller colleges are suffering more than ever. It costs continue to rise, many schools will join the rapidly expanding circle of institutions that have abandoned the game. What are the reasons for the slump is the gate? Money is tighter.

Thousands more television sets are in operation, and the high scoring, particularly among the professionals, has dulled the appetites of the fans. It is also possible that the professionals take much of the edge off their early-season games by the great number of "exhibition' contests which they stage before the regular 'rhedule opens. Football exhibitions unlike baseball spring training games take on the aspect of big games. They are highly publicized, built into desperate struggles by alert publicity directors. As a result, when the regular season gets under way the games except those played between established rivals lack luster.
