Transit Koad Country club, the latest golf organization to become one of rapidly growing group of goif arenas, is setting about getting ready for real business next year. Yesterday there was an informal function held at Meu-gel's inn, behind which the new course lies, to mark the start of work in the construction of the circuit. The function took the form of a luncheon, after which a meeting of the board of temporary officers was held and business affairs connected with the club were discussed.

At the luncheon were John Roesch, president of the club; John Smith, vice-president; D. D. Rounds, secretary; Joseph Morrell, vice-president, and the following directors: George A. (Joold, T. Amesbury Goold, Henry P.

Bronkie, John Roesch. Joseph Morrell, J. Wienand, George Muegel, Albert Hert-rog, and John M. Smith. Bill Rathmann Lays Out.

The party made a thorough inspection of the club's property, with a view of putting their stamp of approval on the work of Will Rathmann, who was entrusted with the highly important task of layimr out the course. Bill spent many loni? davs (mil night) out the topography of this golf country, comprising around two hundred acres, and he eventually planned to his satisfaction a course that will be approximately 6,400 yards, and then leave room for expansion. Everyone of th" party declared that Mr. Rathmann had made a mighty fine job of the engineering work, and a unanimous o. k.

was put on the same. Work has already been begun on the construction part, and it is believed the course will be ready for play by August next. If that belief is justified the club will be putting over some fast construction work. Though there are no very perplexing: propositions with the building of the fairways and greens, for the layout is as dinky a one as could be found within so close a distance of the city, it certainly will be going some to get a golf course ready from the crude material within a year. The course site already has been described in The Courier, though it may bear repeating to mention that the locality of the club's property is a self-contained one from a golf aspect.

That means, that on the place there is all the sand, all the loam and all the foliage, (lovely woods) and all the everything else a well-equipped country club need.s. The fast filling membership roll of the club is to be limited to 300. and tho.e-3ft0 are going to possess a $outtry club home that will be a pride and a pleasure to them. i Secretary Rounds urges promptness on the part of those wishing to join, as tt Is the full quota of members will be enlisted many weeks are past.

Plans calling for the abolishment of the free foul throw and possibly other changes in the general scoring system are now tinder consideration by the subcommitee of the joint basketball rules committee, it was learned yesterday from a nource close to the powers that be in eastern basketball. Also, according to the same authority, the deliberations of the subcommittee will be considered officially by the rules committee when it meets at Columbia university the latter part of this week.

Modify Scoring Rules. What decision the Intercollegiate Basketball lease itself will reach in the matter will be learned after the annual fall league meeting in this city on November 11. Considerable sentiment exists among members of the College league for a change in the scoring system and men prominent in the sport predicted yesterday that the intercollegiate organisation, at least, would probably insist on some modification of the present system that allows for a free throw after every foul. The activities of the rules committee and the College league are the result of an agitation that began during the last season. Both in college and amateur circles the feeling grew that the present value of the "foul throw was preponderant in comparison with that of the field groal.

It was arirued that two successful tries from the foul line should not have the same scoring value as one field goal, and that the solution suggested was either to make the ifoul throw worth a half point or the field goal worth Uyee points. Might Follow Hockey System. Another recommendation that is receiving careful consideration by the rules committee is to set up' a flat penalty for each foul committed, giving a half point to the team that is the victim of the violation and omitting the try from the foul line. Proponents of this idea argued that basketball is one of the very few games where the infliction of a penalty depends on the skill of the team offended. Whether or not 1 Team A will get the benefit of a violation by -Team it was pointed out.

depends exclusively on the skill and ability of the foul thrower on Team A. In this connection it has been suggested that, as an alternative, the offending player be removed from the game for a stated time, as in hockey. This proposal, however, is. not likely to receive prolonged consideration from the rules committee. Foul Shots Won For Penn.

Opponents of the foul throw rule based their contention- partly on the situation that developed last season in the Intercollegiate Basketball league, when the University of Pennsylvania, possessed of a skillful foul shooter, had a low average of field goals but won the championship without being seriously extended. The preponderance of foul points in Pennsylvania's total for the season was said byf advocates of the new rule toMllustrate the Unfairness of the scoring system in use at present. Arguments on the other side were presented in an open leter sent out by Ralph Morgan of the Universily of Pennsylvania, for many years secretary of the Intercollegiate league and well known in eastern circles. Mr. Morgan defended the present system as the only one capable of keeping fouling jand other violations in check.

If i the rules committee should vote to abolish the foul shot it would be effecting probably the most radical change that has ever been made in the rules of basketball. The free try for goal after a foul has been an integral part of the indoor stxrt since it was first' plaved. The fall meeting of the College" league will be attended by representatives of Pennsylvania. Cornell. Yale.

The applications of Harvard and Syracuse for membership in the organization will be acted upon, buj it was said yesterday that final action will not be taken until the spring conclave next year.

Herb Stein, Pittsburgh's All-American center, knew the Orange signals In the game at Forbes field Saturday, are discredited by Coach John F.

(Chick) Meehan and the Syracuse players and are regarded as ai wholly undesired and roundabout way of alibiing the Orange eleven. Syracuse university officially wishes the intercollegiate world to know that it it has no alibi for the defeat at the hands of the Panther, that Pittsburgh was a superior team and won by superior play and by superior play alone. Herb Stein, the wonderful center of the Panthers, is a player who undoubtedly ranks in class by himself in his position. Attempts to discredit his brilliant work are unfair. All-America centers, as a rule, are able to diagnose plays fairly accurately without knowing signals.

Herb Stein is no exception to this rule. rpHE guiltiest feeling comes to a ballplayer when he fans with the bases full, but to a football player it comes when he sees his fumble recovered by one of the enemy, who' prances down the field for a touchdown, JACK HERMAN, back in town, says Zbyszko will do most of his wrestling in the west.

Al Wittmer, the hard worklnfi Canisfus will meet one of its traditional foes Saturday when It lines up against the strong- St. Bonaventure eleven at Allegany, N. Y. There is a tense rivalry between these two colleges, dating way back to around 1900. Both teams looked forward to the annual grid battle as one of the most important on their schedule.

Formerly the rivalry between the two seats of learning took the form of basketball jouats, but since Canisius has entered the pigskin world, the Fpotllght centers on the chalk-lined arena. Canisiu Out to Settle Score. Canisius has something of a score to settle up in this year's encounter, having been beaten by St. Bonn's the last two years. Both battles were hummers and this year's will be even more so.

The one idea fixed in the minds of the blue and gold clad warriors is that they have got to win this fray. Two defeat running have left a bad taste in Canisius' mouth and made St. Bona'! a little cocky. Many students are going to make the trip and the Canisius alumni in that part of the state will be out in forcei Coach Urban is working the squad hard this week with a rousing victory over the down-state bunch as his goal.

The team is endorsed by Jim Thorpe and in its three games this season defeated Gary, 14 to.

Springfield, 111., 17 to 3. and lost to Ton. Rwanda 9 to 7 on a phenomenal drop-kick. The Panthers are better now than at the start of the season, and promise t.y puncture the winning streak of the Prospects. The smooth, machine-like play of the Prospects has aroused the "admiration of the fat and gradually the supporters of the team are increasing.

The biggest crowfl of the season is expected Sunday, and the game undoubtedly will be worth while. The Prospects practiced lost night at Troop and a crowd of more than 70 spectators looked on. Coach Abbott is developing a shift play that will delight the fans and confuse opposition. The Prospects are welded into a perfect unit, and play a clashing, scientific game of football. The success of the team will be watched against such formidable opposition as the Cleveland Panthers, and a win by any large score will put the Prospects right near the top.

Another practice has been ordered for Friday night at 6 o'clock. Seats for the game will be available Friday at Snyder's. There will be no increase in prices. ll Waahlnftnn II Catholic Unl. Villain 7 Lfjetle 13 PENNSYLVANIA.

He was sitting at his desk in the office of the Morning Telegraph, writing an article for his column in that paper when the end came, suddenly, but peacefully, a strangely quiet closing to a strangely active career that will always figure largely in the history of the early west.

Enthusiasm is at a high pitch here over the approaching big interactional clash with Georgia Tech in New York on Saturday and a regular mass meeting and pep session was held tonight to show the Penn State eleven that the entire student body is back of them in their fight to defend northern honors from the southern Yellow Jackets. Even the band played better than ever before, probably in appreciation of their being selected to accompany the team to New York for the game. Sixty-five men, the biggest band sent out from State! college in years, will make the trip to the 'Polo Grounds to strive for honors over the Georgia Tech band. It is expected that over 500 Penn State students will also go to the game as a cheering many of them planning to hike to New York starting at noon tomorrow.
