An open fight is on for the center job.

Sam Cooper is Elated for his old half back place, and Lew Weiss has no serious rivalry for the fullback assignment.

JOHN'S GRID TEAM bring the Green and White against union at chenectady a week from Saturday. The Jaspers are PreDarinfl? for the curtain raiser under much more favorable circumstances than have prevailed ever since football was resumed at Manhattan. The Green and White previously has had considerable trouble assembling a first rate coaching staff, but now has one with Schwarzer and Cornelius Cohalan in charge. Furthermore the training at Oakdale gives the Riverdale squad an excellent opportunity to attain toD notch con dition. Schwarzer nevertheless taas a difficult task ahead, inasmuch as he must develop many new men.

Jfive of last years regulars have been lost by graduation and two more through ineligibility, which also claimed two of the leading reserves. John and Neil Tom Skidd, Ed Flanagan and Ted O'Gor- man were the graduates among the regulars, while Andy Ferrari, end, and Burke Ryan, tackle, are the ineligible stringers, and Mike Hayes, half back, and John CMal-ley, quarter back, the reserves banned by scholastic deficiencies. What veteran strength Schwarzer has available is largely in the line. Mike Mazurki, a 218-pounder, Joe Schwarzer standing 6 feet 4 inches tall, is expected to retain his tackle post without great trouble. The other tackle job probably will go to either Gaingreco or Farrell.

Con Cron'm, the star of last year's line, will be at guard for the third season.

Xr. a 8tar Ciadnatk, D. I 'ft it By IRVING VAUGHAN. is unfortunate for Paul Waner of the Pirates that he should be nployed in right field, -which also is the workshop of George Her- man Babe Ruth I of the Yankees. i With Kiki Cuy-ler of the Cub3 in eclipse for the season, Waner and Ruth stand out as the onlv two head- liners in their chosen positions and to rate one as superior to the other on the Kiki Cuyler season's work is almost the equivalent of terming Twee die Dee better than Tweedle Dum.

But the home run exploits of George Herman cannot be discounted. Any time George Herman steps to the plate the enemy must regard him, as a potential home run hitter. There are no parks so large that the Babe ceases to be a menace. And his record for this season, let alone other years, is mute testimony to the fact that the fear or respect with which he is regarded is not unwarranted. Even though he may not hit, he is a perpetual hazard to the opposing pitcher and this accrues to the advantage of Ruth's mates.

They profit by the tendency of many pitchers to ease up unconsciously after Ruth is disposed of or to worry themselves into trouble when the Babe is coming up. Babe Good Fielder. So much attention is concentrated on Ruth's home run deeds that his other baseball attainments are overlooked. Few ever have stopped to think that Ruth need take lessons from no man on the catching of fly balls. Few ever stop to consider that he has baseball instinct.

How often has he been caught in the act of making a throw to the wrong base How often is he outguessed while running bases He simply knows the right thing to do, whether it is on offense or defense, and most of his effort is calm and deliberate. When you figure he has the handicap of a peculiar build, too much weight above the hips, you almost marvel at the ease with which he gets about the premises. Paul Waner's supremacy among the National league's right fielders is mainly due to hitting. Where Ruth is a powerful, free swinger with a keen eye, Waner is the type that adjusts himself on practically every pitch. Waner Shifty Hitter.

A hurler with good control can make Ruth look bad at times, but it takes almost perfect control to keep the Pirate lad from breaking loose. He shifts his position at the plate continually and he's liable to hit whether you feed 'em to him inside, outside or through the middle of the pan. Sharp eyes and quick, powerful action in the wrists account for this. Outside of hitting, Waner can be equaled by several men. Cuyler, for instance, is a far more accurate Big Babe Ruth (shown at the left Waner (leaping for a high one) is and longer thrower, vastly superior as a fielder, whether it be ground or fly balls, and three to one better as a base runner.

The same can be said of Heathcote. Waner is caught too often between the bases to be considered especially strong in this feature of attack. He is inclined to run blind after passing first base, either on his own hits or the hits of men following him in the batting order. Ruth first broke into the major league in 1914, when he was sold to the Boston Red Sox by Providence of the International league. He was sold to the New York Yankees in 1919 for a reported price of $125,000.

In his fourteen years in the major leagues Ruth has maintained a batting average of .349. His record: Tear, dub, league Ave. 1914 Boston, American league. -100 1915 Boston. American league.

John's college football coach, expects to put a powerful eleven on the gridiron this fall. The only first-stringers from last year's squad no longer available are ex-Capt. John (Taps) Gallagher, center; Al Falussy, tackle, and Bill Schrauth, end. Matty Blei, captain and heads the list of experienced men that Lynch will send against Lehigh at Bethlehem, on Sept. 29.

The other end job is expected to be filled by Max Kinsbrunner, one of last year's halfbacks. Helmer again is slated to fill a tackle job, but his running mate is yet to be decided. Bobowick and Constantino are striving to retain ASSISTANTS and baseball star. Norgren probably will be in charge of the reserve team, which plays two games this season. Both Norgren and Crisler will work with the back field men.

Two former captains, Bub Hen derson, who graduated 1925, and Kenneth Rouse, last year's leader, will be the line coaches. Henderson was a tackle and Rouse a center. Jerome Fisher, A. A. Stagg James Pyott, and William Abbott will coach the freshmen, Fisher being in charge of the work.

Stagg in his thirty-seventh season as athletic director and football coach of the University of Chicago will be a staff consisting entirely of former Maroon players, including four ex-captains. Two members of last year's coaching staff have been lost, Coville Jackson, for several years the head line coach, having gone to Oklahoma City on business, and Campbell Dickson having accepted the position of head football coach at Beloit.

Stagg's first assistants will be Nelson Norgren, captain of the 1913 championship team and one of the two men ever to win twelve letters in athletics at Chicago, and H. O. fooball.
