I am waitinf for word from him." According to a Philadelphia newspaper, Mack refused Foxjc's demand for a year, but Invited the slugger to discuss the matter with him arain. The newspaper quotes Foxx as saying: "Yon can't blame a fellow for asking when he thinks he deserves it. Ruth rot $32,000 last season and I am sure I can hit them as far and more often than Babe did.

At the Wtstinghouse High School Field, Clan Douglas and the undefeated Arsenal eleven will meet in an effort to settle that unfinished game that terminated so abruptly at the Butler street grounds a few weeks ago. Arsenal looks better as the season rolls along. Duff Is playing a great game at center halfback, Sammy and Angus Grey are leading a very capable line composed of Eicher, Green and Smith.

and I believe they should be rated In about that order. Duquesne lost only to a great Pittsburgh team, by a close score. Columbia, playing an easier schedule, lost only one game, by quite a'siz-able 20-0 score, to Princeton. Buckncll lost only to Duquesne and Western Maryland, two strong teams, by the narrowest of margins, while Vlllanova was only beaten by Buckncll and Boston College. The highlights of the season from a national standpoint were Southern California's upset at the hands of Stanford, Notre Dame's unimpressive showing, and the Ramblers' great comeback In their final game against the Army.

SEASON OF VFSETS It was a season of many upsets and many games In which there was little scoring by either team this latter fact further emphasizes the fact that the defense has gradually been getting too strong for the offense. Numerous games were played in which only Dame Fortune decided the winner, and the number of undefeated teams was unusually small. One reason for this and also for the many upsets was because teams were playing harder schedules this year than ever before. They did so because in numerous instances budgets required the revenue that only games with tough opponents every Saturday would bring In. Another reason was because nearly all colleges were represented by stronger teams than ever before.
