Br BHXV EVAXS. When the football season is over By RAY PARMELY. While the University of Flori'da Gators -were beating the University of Alabama Crimson Tide out of a southern championship at Birmingham," the University of Florida freshmen were' helping the University of Alabama freshmen to a championship. The 'Bama freshies took the long end of a 21 to 0 score Thursday at Plant field, while Florida beat Alabama in the' varsity game by 16 to 6. The freshman game was a great battle and the score does not in.

dicate the strength of the two teams. Alabama scored two touchdowns by playing fotball, but they crossed the goal line for the first score as a result of Gator pass that was thrown right into the arms of a Crimson Tide back in the danger zone. Few teams would attempt a pass over the line in the position that Florida occupied at that time to say nothing of a wide pass that is hard to cover. Trick-Play Scores. To score the hird touchdown the Crimson Tide pulled a play, of which none ever worked more successfully.

Not a player on the Florida team saw the Alabama player who was carrying the ball until ho was nearly to the goal CHARLES VADEN, JOHN RIDDLE -J In a season replete with unusual features, that of the Riverside Military Academy 'of Gainesville, in hav-ingtwo captains for the same football team is without precedent. The election resulted in a tie vote that could not be broken, so it was decided to play the season with the two players selected having equal authority.

by Taropa New York, Nov. At least one important coaching change will mark- the next football season, Glenn Warner has completed a long term of service at Pittsburg and -will move out to Palo Alta to assume charge of the destinies Leland Stanford. Jock Sutherland nrill take Warner's place at Pitt and it seems altogether likely.that the place left vacant It Lafayette through Sutherland's departure -vrill be filled by Henry Garrity, the tormer Princeton star fullback, who has been coaching at Wake Forest. Warner will have a splendid opportunity at Stanford. One of the -wisest and "most resourceful of coaches he has had his representative at Stanford, laying the ground work -for his administration.

That it has been well laid was apparent in the game the Palo Altans played against Califor-rua last Saturday. Stanford seems to have been heaten because she was newer in the fundamentals of football than the Bears and lacked that instinctive: knowledge of what to do at theiright instant. Warner may be relied upon to correcti this and in xicTf of the splendid material that will be available it may well bo that the supremacy pt Bears -will see the beginning of a decline. At least' there will be a much closer rivalry than there has been in recant years and no doubt California will welcome this since a well matched rivalry Is the Essence of good sport. As to Stanford's play last Saturday it may be said she gained Sljjyards from scrimmage a3 against the Bears' 61 yards and coAff letsd a greater number of forward passes.

She made one march of- 84 yards to California's ten )yard line, losing the ball there onia forward' pass. All which may be regarded as an augury for thef future. -4: gale's, well laid plans to give Harvard a real beating were frus UPSETS FEATURE FINAL GAMES OF By JOHN B. FOSTER. -(Copyright, 1923, by Tampa Time.) New York, Nov.

30. The Chicago White Sox have settled on Winter Haven, Florida, for their spring training camp. No doubt they picked that part of the country at tie behest of the Giants, with whom they hook up for a spring tour. But it isn't at all certain that that tour will be a howling success, for, with so many teams heading out of Florida, it will be some task to line up a tour that will be worth while. The south will be plastered to death with exhibition games.

It was poor business policy for everybody to drop Texas. The town of Sarasota, which has been mentioned as the possible training camp of the Giants, is below Bradentown, on the gulf coast. Sarasota is hot early, and has plenty of inducements for fishermen and pleasure seekers, although it is' not a resort In, the sense. of the big places on east coast. Nine majors are now booked for Florida, and the state will be playing baseball with oranges and grapefruit before the winter is over.

The location of so many camps there already has converted Florida into a baseball madhouse, and the central and lower part of the state were crazy- with excitement last spring and summer. The Florida league, which some thought would never be a success, is going well. The smaller towns are turning out fine orbwds. A fan writes that everybody knocks off work and plays ball on Only the Boston Americans and New Tork Americans have not announced their training choices: Now -that Pittsburg has vacated Hot Springs. Boston may settle there.

If they do not, it will bo the first time in many years that Hot Springs has not boasted a training camp. The Yankeejs did something more than throttle the Giantsin the recent world series. stopped a steady march i toward victory that the National league had been making against its younger rival. The American leaguers won four straight in 1915 to 1918 inclusive. The Nationals saw daylight in 1919, only to have the series smirched by the White Sox.

Trie Americans won In 1920 and the next two years were Na tional years. The total of series now stands at 11 to 8 in favor of the American inatsorl nf ID tn AllTIOSt a tie as the Nationals had hoped. To date the Americain league has won 66 series games to 63 lor tne Nationals, and there have, been three ties. The Nationals have scored the most runs 360 to 357 for the Americans. The most runs ever made seven game series, was in 1910 x.

when the Philadelphia Athletics made 35 off the Chicago Nationals. The low record was established by the Brooklyn Nationals in 19,20 eight runs.

Primed for a reversal over his form in the last bout with Tim O'Dowd, Lew Silver arrived in Tampa Thursday night with his manager Max Abelson, and 1 will enter the ring at Benjamin field Friday night determined that he will keep up his victorious record here. Abelson informed the writer Friday morning that he had made ar rangements with the athetic offi cers of the One HirrWred and Six teenth field artillery to stage the bout on Saturday night in. case.

rain Friday night halted the card because of the fact that his pro tege is forced to be in Atlanta Monday, where -he faces a. test in his work in the Southern Dental college. 1 Indications are that Silver will sacrifice his weight forfeit of $100. In fact Abelson said that, while his charge had already agreed to meet the winner of the O'Dowd-McCann bout last-Monday night, he was confident that McCann would be returned the winner and that he would be required to. make no-126 ppunds at 3Cclock.

Silver weighsv a couple of pounds over that figure within the featherweight limit, however and he has had no time to train off a couple of pounds on such, short notice. Silver is so anxious toget another crack at O'Dowd that he did not hesitate to put up-the weight forfeit. His determination to beat the southern champion is so great that he will gladly forfeit the $100, he said. O'Dowd is confident, he will be able to. turn the trick again as he did in their bout in Atlanta.

on November 13. This, the writer believes, he will not be able to do. Silver looks like the best bet. He has two good hands against O'Dowd's good left, which should prevail, granting that O'Dowd is one of the cleverest featherweights soon in' the local ring. Plenty of action will be provided in the preliminaries, barring failure of some of the maulers to put in an appearance.

Th semi-wind-up should provide plenty of action, for both Puglisi and Willi-ford are wililng mixers and the bout is likely-to end in a knockout. Western Conference Has Schedule Meet Chicago, Nov. 30. Representatives of the 10 conference colleges of the central west met here today to shape their athletic schedule for tho coming- year. Indications were that there would be few changes in the.

schedules of the various institutions as carried out in the past year. Indications are that the difficulties that have arisen during the period will cause some discussion, however.

Jacksonville, Nov. 30. Hillsborough High school's football team is still undefeated.

The Red and Black athletes walked over Duval's Red and White machine here yesterday 10 to 0, in the first period and then crawled back into their shell to await the decision of the Florida High School Athletlo- association in awarding the championship, i Anthony Ncwlands booted across field goal early in the game from the 20-yard line and shortly after the ensuing kickoff, Hovey Bell broke loose for a pretty 22-yard run. George (Rabbit) Wallis then went around the end for a long run to place the ball on-" Duval's 5-yard chalk yard and he carried the ball over for a touchdown on the next play, an-off 'tackle smash. Duval was never in a position to score. The Red and White could get no closer to the Red and Black's goat line than the 35-yard line, where they ran into a defense that was impregnable. The summary.

The average daily number of London police off duty through sickness is aboft 700. and the "Stove league" for gridiron gossip has gone into session lor the winter, the Nebraska-Notre Dame game will be played ovor many a time. The defeat of Dame by the Cornhuskers was the biggest vpset of the year. Not a football expert conceded Nebraska a chance.

In the parlance of. the race track Notre Dame was trimmed by a team that1 was about a 10 to 1 shot. The game teemed with sensa tional features from start to finish. Noble, who scored both of Nebraska's touchdowns, did so in a most sensational manner. On one occasion lie skirted the end for a 25-yard run.

Despite that at least a half dozen Notre Dame players were in his path, he man aged to elude them eitner by sidestepping or stiff-arming every would-be tackier. Fumble Prove Cotly. The other Nebraska touchdown came atfer Noble had received a short pass of 10 yards and than covered an equal distance to cross the goal line. Tackled by-4he great Layden. five yards from Ills objective, Noble managed to keep his feet, dragging the Notre Dame star over the line with him.

One of the toughest breaks of the game came when after crossing the goal line, on a long pass from Stuhldreher, dropped the ball after crossing the Nebraska goal line. However, the biggest thrill of this most sensational game hap pened in the third quarter. It is questionable if there ever -was a play that carried more of the dramatic. It was an incident, that carried a double thrill in which the two teams and the partisan roofers played a leading role. Makes Sensational Run.

Notre Dame had the ball on Ne braska's 23-yard line and it looked as if r.ockne's team wduld surely score. Stuhldreher called for 5 play through the Nebraska line. Some Notre Dame player tumbled the ball. A number of players from both teams dived aftr it, as is the custom in football. Rhoades, husky Nebraska end, recovered the b'alliCgrabbed it on the run, then neaaed lor tne Korre uame goal.

Not a player loomed up in his rath, it seemed a certainty that Rhoades would score a touchdown. The Notre Dame stands were aghast. In one brief second the en tire situation had been changed. In stead of the "Fighting Irish" going over for. a touchdown, looked to be headed for a third score.

Miller Saved Day. Out in front to a good start Rhoades put white line line behind him. Ten, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 yards he covered without -the slightest interference. Nebraska rooters, however, had reckoned without the fleet Don Mil ler, star'Notre' Dame back. With a deadly tackle on the Notre Dame five-yard line "Miller brought Rhoades.

to the ground. The force of the diving tackle, the contact with the ground, plus the speed at which Rhoades was traveline. was too much. As Rhoades hit the ground he shot from his arms into tne air. It crossed the- koal line.

Who would fall on the ball? For Nebraska it still meant a touchdown if one 'of their rlsyers recovered it back of the goal posts, for Notre Dam, it was nerely a totichback, rendering void the value of the long run. A Notre Dame player fell on-the ball. It was all for naugit. Try to dope out a more spectacu lar play. Doc Nance, Catcher, In Poultry Business Ji.

by Tampa New York, Nov. 30 It would not be surprising were Jack Dempsey to-engage- in a serious bout when he goes abroad late this winter. There is a great desire in England and France to see the champion in action and the fans would pay good money to see him go even against an opponent who figures as more or less of a set up. As an indication of Kearns' Intentions concerning Dempsey when in Europe it is interesting to note that Teddy Hayes, Jack's former has signed a contract to resume work with the titlcholder. And among other things the contract is said to include a clause concerning a European trip.

No one seems to -know just why Hayes and Dempsey parted com pany in the months preceding that Gibbons battle. But it was under-stod that no ill feeling was at the bottom of it. Jerry, the Greek, did very well with Dempsey out "west and at Saratoga. Whether or not he be retained as an assistant is not known.

There is no denying the fact, however, that the Alabama line was impregnabla in the shadow, of its own goal posis. Once the Crmson line held on the wo yard line. Good Material. Spectators could see in toth freshman.

elevens' some mighty fine material for the' varsity next year. Captain Sarra, at center for the Gators, played an excellent game, and Chaplin, gives promise developing into a fullback who will give Bill Middlekauf a race for his position next year. The entire Florida line played good football, and Harrell's work in broken field running needs little improvement to make, him a finished product. For Quarte'rback Estes and the entire line played fine ball. Captain Gonzalez, did not play up to his usual form, but he showed flashes of fine football and probably will be a figure in varsity football next season.

He and Bennett, Florida tackle, were the only Tampa boys in the game. Who Is Champion? The status of the varsity team as regards the southern championship is in doubt. The clearly eliminated Alabama )ut Vandcrbilt and Washington and Lee -are although both have been tied onc. Washington and Lee has won four conference games and tied one. Vanderbilt has won three and tied one.

Florida has won only one and tied two. The fact that the Gators had only three conference games on her schedule is ho fault of the Orange and Black schedule makers. It was impossible to get more than three games, Georgia and Auburn refusing to play the Gators, according to University of Florida authorities. It was only after a lengthy argument that Alabama consented to a' game with the Gators. it woifld have been better for the Crimson had she held out, it developed Thursday.

Wijl Xanie Champions. Sports editors of the south will proceed now with the selection of a championship eleven from among Florida, Washington and Lee and Vanderbilt. With this splendid array of freshman material to be added to the varsity next' year," the Gato's should make even a better show, ing.

There maj be no question that the Crim-son! was prepared to put up a strong defense and there, is reason that Yale's gains would not have been consistently sequential.

On the other hand, as in ihe Princeton game, it is altogether reasonable to assume that Stevens. Neidlinger, Richeson and Neale would have been shot loose; fori occasional long gains that would have placed Yale in position to Strike for score just as happened in the Eli-Tiger coVtest. But-since speculation over what might have happened in football games carries little significance, there is no need to carry the epic farther. With the conditions as urerp. however, both teams had an equal chance to win.

It depended upon where and how the' "breaks went.
