At the top is Stumpy beginning that long, twisting 31-yard run for the first Tech score on Alabama in four years. It we a wonderful run that Stumpy made, and his playing Saturday made a niche for him among Tech great football players of the past. At the right an Alabama player is using Crowley as a ladder to climb up and knock down a pass intended for the Tech captain. Stumpy Thomason is getting in some of his brilliant defensive work, stopping Alabama's Mr. Brasfield, who has just made four yards at right end.

Tolbert Brown is being stopped suddenly and effectively in the next picture, having just made a five-yard gain.

Expects To Be Traded Before 1928 Season, Cuyler Tells Home Folks. BY WESTBROOK PEGLER. New York, October 15. The abrupt termination of the world series, nearly a week, ahead of its appointed maximum time, leaves the field and the sport pages almost clear for the college football players, and the atmosphere clear for the boola-boolas, and similar so-called whatnots of the noncombatants. This will be a relief after a season of unusual excitement in the sport -WK or more customers, so A lie will yield to football, too.

October UP) Just for a little more than two periods. Knute Kocko turned loose a youth named Christy Flanagan on the Navy eleven today and when the dust of rlie latest Indiana cyclone from South Bend had settled in the Baltimore stadium, Notre Dame had clinched victory in the first of the season's outstanding interscctional football clashes. IJacing to the rescue of his green-jersied mates at the start of the second period when Navy had chalked up a lone touchdown lead.

Flanagan personally directed the scoring of Notre Dame's first touchdown, brought the ball again almost to the Sailor goal line and then retired to leave the polishing off of a 19-t victory to his teammates. And to those mates went the glory of piling up the scores after Flanagan, bright shining light of the some. Jt would be easy and graceful to express a preference for football on the grounds of its ethical cleanliness and all that sort of thing. 1 am afraid I enjoy a prize fight, such as the Chicago uplift show, more than I enjoy sitting on the lip of the Yale bowl with deposits of sleet melting off my collar and the paper turning to gummy pulp on the roller of the typewriter, which may be a form of depravity or not. However, after six months of prize fights, and rather frank intimations of burglary, met with disdain instead of denials, a change is pleasant.

Mr. Tutiney's Comparison. and it pains the baseball proprietors to hear opinions that hypocrisy sits in a mock court where the judge is beholden to one class of litigants for his job, yet purports to judge impartially. But these considerations need not mar the customers enjoyment of the performance if he goes to "the show expecting to see an act by skilled performers, saving his illusions of sportsmanship for the football season. The prize fighters, managers and promoters with their mock dignity, their make-believe ethics and their bewilderment in the sight of so much money, are amusing to observe.

Men in more sedate lines of business may be just as unsteady in their business Flint, October 15. (United News.) "Kiki" Cuyler, star center fielder of the Pittsburgh Pirates who has been "in disgrace" with his team, expects to be traded before the 1928 season opens, he said today in explaining to home friends his differences with Ponie Bush, pirate manager. He lias no grievances against Bush, Cuyler said, and lie liojies the Pirate manager "will do as well next year." "I believe I have played my last game in a Pittsburgh uniform," Cuyler said. "Bush asked me to change my style of playing in several ways, and while I never refused to take his order, the old jinx followed me whenever I tried out the new methods. "The whole thing began, I think, in the training camp last spring when Bush instructed me to change my style of leading of second base.

He wanted me to face the pitcher instead of leading with my back to the second baseman. "Then Bush decided to change the lineup and I was made to hit second. I (lid it nntl tried my best, but I have never been a successful second man. "When I tried it, the ball went straight to some fielder for a double play and the whole team started dubbing me "double." "Bush accused me of carrying my case to the newspapers when he fined me for failing to slide into second, but he was mistaken. I never discussed it and I even offered to apologize.

"They sent to the minors for Com-orosky to play in the outfield instead of letting me back in the lineup and I'm sure that I won't be with the Pirates next year." Mr. Gene Tumiey, last year, gave Jiockne offense, had demoralized a morals, but they are not in the public eye and, anyway, they are more suave. his attention to a comparison between prize fighting and football, and found Ira promising Navy defense with his blinding hip-shifting speed and general all-round potency behind the sweeping interference of the veteran Notre Dame backs. Notre Dame outrnshed the Middies 14 first downs to Of the 14 aerial tosses Navy made, only five were successful, while Notre Dame completed five out of nine. Navy, however, gained 101 yards by this route to for Notre Dame.

Cunningham. The newly formed Trammell Scott league will meet Thursday night ri 7 o'clock at Trammell Scott's store. Much enthusiasm and interest have already been expressed at these early business meetings and it clearly demonstrates that basketball is fast gaining in favor and more than likely more teams than ever will appear. One of the main rulings adopted bv these three leagues will be that a player will be allowed to play on only one team. This should create more opportunities for the beginner and will develop new material.

Nothing of any importance was accomplished in the first City league or Y. C. A. A. meeting, but the Y.

C. A. A. did have four new members added. The Trammell Scott league was organized with six teams and with the other applications may ruake an eight-club league or form another league.

kins made a beautiful dive and flagged the fleet Taylor from behind. A remarkable example of alertness, and one of the best plays that has ever been executed on ('rant field. As the closing moments drew near Alabama played desperately, hoping thereby to complete a long forward pass, or swing wide on a triple pass to a tie. A pass was attempted. Hut Tech, still playing heads up, rushed the passer, causing him to fumble.

Tech recovered on the one-yard line. Just as the whistle blew, a single thrust by Mizell" carried the ball over. Too much praise cannot be tendered the Alabama line, or the Alabama backfield. From end to end. the Crimson Title has undoubtedly the strongest rush line in the south today.

Time and time again Tech would throw all its power into that stalwart line, only to be repulsed with no gain. It charged low. and hard both on offense ami defense. The Alabama backs were fast and especially flashy. Hrown, until the final whistle, was a threat which would allow the Tech team no peace.

Hrasfield. with his accurate, deadly passing, was an important factor in the very impressive pass attack. Keen Perception. Tech won the game. Not with superior power, not with greater speed, but with a slight edge in following the ball, with a little keener perception, a little determination.

The first important victory lias been won. ISiit. what of the future? Will the Tech team carry on. undefeated to a glorious season, or will the sweetness of success drug the bodies and clog the minds of a team which has shown marvelous improvement since the first game? That question can only be answered by the Tech team. If they choose, all things are possible this season.

In that team lies a potential championship aggregation. To reduce that potentiality to fact the Tech team need only work harder and harder each week, study more and more, and play better and better. Look back at the V. M. I.

game. Not so had. Then Tulane. better. Now Alabama, still better but a long way from perfect.

Will the Georgia game find a perfect Tech team? A team with slashing line attack, flashy end play, clever passes and an air-tight defense? Only the Tech team can answer that question. Tech men. let's pray again. Oh. for the power to look up, not down forward.

nt backward: to work harder and harder, play better and better and beat Georgia. Score br periods: Notre Dame a 12 7 -19 Purple Hurricane Wins in Sandlot prize fighting the more desirable, but he made a mistake when he attempted to give aesthetic reasons for his preference. It was a mistake because there can be no reasons for preferring a prize fjght as a sporting event, ali reason being on the other side anil such a preference merely the expression of the same peculiarity that makes some people prefer a hanging to some higher form of amusement. The best statement of the comparison that I ever read was contained in a letter which I received some time ago, saying that "cheating all forms of roguery are as characteristic of prize fighting as violence is of electricity, and there is almost nothing evil that may not be said of the morals of this gentry. there is a fine and always meandering line marking the boundary between those whom we love and those we suspect so when we cross to college football we must examine the college germ under the microscope intended to isolate the pugilistic bug.

"I ndue Violence." "There be undue violence in the college game of football, but superimposed on this deplorable state of affairs is the inescapable conclusion that the human race is prone to many iniquities; that out of it comes the college man. Perhaps an imperfect enterprise as we know him, but at least a human gesture in the direction of making the best kind of man we know how to make. "It is true that college sport often admits of rebuke, but it is not commercial in the street definition and, therefore. I think it should not be discussed in the caustic tone which belongs to the coldly commercial athletics conducted solely as an industry." From this time until the end ot November, the baseball industry will maintain a discreet silence, barring only' the possibility of another attempt on the part of the American slink'1. The plodae of the Mnsketocrs is theirs all for one, nnd one for all.

With this consecrated purpose thes men take the field physically perfect, mentally alert. Deep in the heart of each, and in the hearts of those -who were to substitute, was the resolve to stem the Crimson Tide or be carried prostrate from the field. It was this resolve, pins 'perfect physical condition and mental alert- nesss. which hrousht home to Tech f.r the first time since a victory-over the clan from Alabama. It wa the resolve which enabled the Tech men to battle bravely asainst a sfronprcr ruh line and, as a whole, a faster backfield.

It was perfect physical condition which enabled the Tech forwards to stand four quarter severe punishment from the. cleanest, hardest chnrgiiis line in the south today. It was mental alertness which gave Tech two opportunities to score, and twice saved a touchdown by Alabama. Four Climaxes. Tn that jreat drama, witnessed by souls, there were four distinct climaxes; four times when victory was offered as the prize for quick thinking and instantaneous action.

Tech. looking ever upward, flashing into action from spontaneous thought, rose to meet those crises, and thereby won a football game featuring two perfectly matched elevens. In the secind quarter. Tech started a drive towards Alabama goal. Concentrating on short smashes at the tackles, punctuated by an occasional thrust to the short side.

Tech marched steadily down the field. Thomason, the redoubtable Thomason. answered his signal for a left end run. Whipping like a flash, he saw the cud boxed out. So.

he tok the inside cut. then out to lodge the oncoming sideback. The Alabama secondary shifted to force him out of bounds, but Stumpy kept resolutely on, running within a foot' of the iine. Seeing his plight, the safety man came up fast to force lam out. Stumpy made a gesture as if to cut into the players who bore d-wn on him.

The safety man wheeled, but had come up too fa sr. so he slipped as Stumpy darted past for a touchdown. In the fourth quarter, Tech attempted a wide forward pass. Horn to I'arham. Horn was considerably rushed on the play, and Alabama intercepted the throw.

Only J'ob Horn was left to drop an Alabama runner with two interferers. I'sinc all the speed and power of his frame, Horn cut tinder the mass, dumd the interferes and runner, and saved a touchdown. Threaten Again. Again in the fourth quarter Alabama seriously threatened to score, lie-hind a perfect wall of linemen, the fleet Alabama backs advanced the ball relentlessly toward the Tech goal. Kxecnting a perfect trick play.

Taylor was deep in the Tech secondary before being discovered. Taking advantage of this temporary panic. Taylor ran right through the startled backs. A touchdown seemed inevitable. But, go back a few seconds and follow Watkins, tackle on the Tech team.

Urea king through the Alabama forwards, only to discover that "the cupboard was bare," Watkins, at full speed, fallowed Taylor from behind. As he dodged the last Teclrback Wat- Xnry 0 0 0 Touchdowns: Navy. Spritic. fxnb for I.loydi; Notre Dame. Flanagan.

Alert and steady football shot through with the individual brilliance of the backfield star, Bruce Caldwell, carried Yale to a 19-to-0 victory over Brown in the Yale bowl today in sweet retaliation for the triumph of the Bears a year ago. Cashing in on every Brown mis-play the Yale team held the whin band all the way and twice shook Caldwell loose for runs that led to touchdowns. The victory was the 27th for Yale over Brown since the rivalry- began in 1SSO. Two of the 33 game's played were ties and a team of "iron men' won the fourth for Brown in In the opening period Captain Ilaudall. of Brown, fumbled and Quarrier recovered for Yale on the enemy's 16-yard line.

Fighting doggedly. Brown twice turned back the Yale attack, but another fumble by Iiandall in the second period carried Yale to scoring distance for the third time and this chance the Elis did not miss. The fumble came as Bandall swept around right end in Caldwell got the ball and dashed to the Brunoninns 21-yard line before he was tackled. The drive for the goal was all Caldwell, with five yards through the line, then 11 off tackle, until finally on the fourth down the ball was on the one-yard line.
