Now it's f. his come-one-come-all nerve that wins him more -Smiles ahc F'Cjhts of, oU. friends. The other day De Vos was asked whether he'd care to meet Ace Hudkins, and De Vos remarked that he'd just as leave take a shot at the "Cat" as any one he could think of. That match may be brought off in the Garden in the near future.

You'ije got to hand It to De Vos. The Belgian is already in line for a shot at Mickey Walker, but he's willing to take a chance with Hudkins Just the same. It's refreshing to come across a fighter of De Vos' it? gambling Practically all of the top-notchers today carry a "list," as they say in Queer Perhaps you don't know what that manager or promoter could explain the names of scrappers who, the list- marked, lnstetad, another page In the brUllar.t history of Army polo that lias been In the writing for the past several years. Uncle Sam at last has some players who can nearly hold their own with the best teams in the world. This is not a prophecy, it is an established fact.

Army lost the open championship to Meadow Brook by enly three goals, and on the flat here this afternoon came within four goals of Sands Point. It benefitted by a two goal handicap. That made the score even closer. Tommy Hitchcock and W. Averill Harriman, playing with two of the most likely youngsters in the game to day, T.

The score was 8 to 7 In favor of Sands Point.

Gerhardt scored the only goal of the sixth period on a free hit from the 10-yard mark, due to a foul made by Hitchcock In saving a goal at the end of the fifth chukker. Then Harriman took a long pass from Hitchcock for a goal and Hitchcock completed a pass from Harriman for another counter. Sands Point led, 10 to 8.

HARVARD ENJOYS ONE BIG PERIOD TO I TO North Carolina's Game Defense Crumples Before Crimson Cambridge, Oct. 13 (PJ Harvard defeated the University ot North Carolina football team here today by a score of 20 to 0.

Except for the second period, the game was bitterly fought, with both sides punting frequently. The 20 points were attributed to the open field running of Gllllgan and French, the off- tackle slashing of Guarnaccla and the line smashing oi Harper. The first nerlod. was scoreless, but ended with Harvard possessing the ball on the Norm Carolina six-yara line as a result of off-tackle dashes by French and Guarnaccla. On the first play of the second period Harper tore through the line to score and French kicked the foal.

This started the Harvard scoring. A forward pass Intercepted on the visitors' 42-vard line gave Harvard 'ho ball and French and Guarnaccla tore off the tackles to the five-yard line. Harper bounced into and off several of the "tar heel" players before he crossed the line. French's kick was blocked. Then entered Gilllgan, who has been tagged as a future Mahan, to take the place cf Putnam at quarter for Harvard.

He lived up to his reou-tatlon and ran wild around the ends and off the tackles to put French In a position to score from the 10-yard line. Gilliaan tnen dropklcked the extra point. Throughout the remainder ot the game Gllllgan brought the crowd to its teet with his broken field running. 71 Manner was the main cog In tne offense ot the Southerners, although the entlie Southern line covered ltsen with glory as it held Harvard on its in.varri line late in the last Quarter. On four successive plays Harvard backs were thrown lor losses.

The Dractice isn't a new one. not nemiliar to the familiar "safety-first champs and near champs of today who are seldom willing to meet a tough one without an "ace in the hole" somewhere.

Gene Tunney, for instance, carried a list for years- right up to the time he first met Dempsey, in fact. And you could go further even unto his farewell en gagement with Heeney. Johnny Risko was on that use, ana some say inai even Jack Sharkey's name was there, too. Tunney was the shrewdest, most careful, cautious matchmaker the game ever knew. It was largely because he picked the right opponents at the right time that he got to the top.

Boxing is ft business, and as a business man you have to give Tunney credit lor his perspicacity. Gibbons on Tunney list for Years. At one time there were several fighters who might easily have 'ruined" Gene. One ot them was Tommy Gibbons. After Gene had whipped Greb, Tommy tried his darn-dest to "get on" with the ex-marine, but Tunney wisely sidestepped the match.

He always explained to his confidants that he "wasn't ready" for Gibbons, that "in another year or so" he'd have the proper seasoning for a gent of Gibbons' caliber. And Tunney maintained that stand until the time was "ripe." When Tommy was sick of the game and leady to quit, Tunney opened negotiations with the St. Paul man, and Tommy rolled over In the eleventh round. Tommy explained 'twas the Intense heat that beat him, but a lot of skeptics were cruel enough to assert that it looked very like a "business match" to them. However, to get back to De Vos.

The blond Belgian doesn't carry a "list" or any cautious streak with regard to any fighter. Perhans he'd be'wise' If he did, but that's his and the fens like him for his care fearlessness. De Vos One Fighter Who Scorns List. The manner in which De Vos accounted for the hard-hitting Kaplan gives him a decent "lookin" even with such a corking fighting speci men as Ace Hudkins. The Ace isn't the puncher that Kaplan is and that's something in De Vos' favor.

But In Hudkins De Vos would meet the fastest, roughest and most bewildering thing in perpetual motion machines he has ever encountered. De Vos is a first-rate slugger himself. He stood up to Oeorgie Courtney, exchanged wallops as fast as Courtney could unbutton them, and outscored the Oklahoma boy to a decision. De Vos isn't a great fighter, but his style deceives one into thinking him less than he really is. He is fast and sprightly enough without giving the appearance of speed.

The Belgian is partly a boxer and partly a slugging punlsher, too. Not a master of either, but a good honest workman in both departments.

It was a day of mixed fortunes tor the big crowd that paid the track a visit. Three favorltes--Davld Bone, Polydor and Turf King won. The other three winners were garnered by Hoity vTolty at 12 to 1, Chatford at 12 to 1 and Xylophone backed from 12 to 1 down to 8 to 1. Mordlne was made an odds-on favorite for the first race. He never had a chance to show his true speed because Kurtsinger Jammed him into a pocket and the colt never could get out.

The crowd was treated to the favorite running under a pull all the way. Not once was he able to obtain a clear track to show his best speed. He finished fourth. Hoity Toity led throughout and beat Fleeting Fire a length. David Bone, prince of quitters, pained such a big lead during the parly stages of the second race that he never was caught, although he won by only three parts of a length.

At one time ne was eigne lengins to the good. A Bargain Oi a Flop! Long allowed David Bone to utilize Jiis early great speed. This was Just what David liked and he was able to all but stagger home, a short length in front of Crow's Nest, that came from far back and was overhauling David at the finish. Crow's Nest, a son of Man o' War, was entered to be sold for $3,000. Mrs.

Payne Whitney paid 135.000 for him two years ago as a yearling. He was claimed out of the race by George Carroll for his entered selling fence. Cifford, A- Cochran's Xylophone, means, but any it. These are a 72. a are a little too tough for his capabill gentlemen, to be avoided, and under into revising his Ideas on the subject- Combination liook to Head Belgian's Et Blow.

There must be some steam and snap in his blows, too, though he not what you could call a quick finisher. His pet wallop is a combination left and right hook to the head. He nailed Kaplan with the.e two raps and Phil sat down nara badly Jarred even though be didn't take a long count. De Vos has a sharp-shooter's eye. He isn't given to feinting his man into openings, fiapian, ion lnsituice, is a clever boxer and he was any thing but off-guard when the Bel eian dropped him.

Yet as if by in- tuition, De Vos suddenly uncorkfd his punches on the seemingly wen protected Hebrew and Philip toppled to the floor. That there was nlentv of "English" on tne European gloves was inai catea by Kaplans actions. He nrst lurched forward, and then, as If try ing to right himself, tumbled straight backwards and fell in a sitting posi tion. De Vos' combination punch isn't an accident. Several times later in the bout he nailed Kaplan with tho same companion punches in the same way.

but the steam seemed to be lacking. Can Hold Own At Infighting. The Belgian is a very fair body puncher, too. He likes to trade in, close, depending on one or two particularly hard punches to a storm ot lighter ones. Unlike most Europeans, notably Carpentier, De Vos knows something about protecting himself in close.

He's privy to all the "tying up" tricks and uses his forearms to fend off body punches, though Kaplan landed some hard punches during the close order rallies. A Reminder of Billy Papke, the Thunderbolt. De Vos in many ways is a or Billy Papke, the old "Illinois Thunderbolt" and former world's middleweight champion. He has the same generally meaty, muscular build, the yellow hair, square Jaws and the smile. De vos lsnt tne heavy puncher that Papke was and is considerably less tigerish and ferocious, in spite of his busy fighting.

There was a cruel merciless streak under Papke's smile, but Rene, though a punisher, smiles in a more friendly way. Papke used to smile when he knocked them down. De Vog grins affably when the other fellow lands and seems to enjoy the spirit ot wholesome competition. The Kaplan fight was De Vos' first Garden appearance though he has been in this country for several years and long ago was eligible for a "big time" showing. The powers that be didn't think Rene was a "card" for some mysterious reason.

Now De Vos is very much an attraction, A bout between the Belgian and either Hudkins or Courtney would come near to packing the Garden. The answer is simple. The fans know De Vos is a good fighter, very possibly a coming champion. DIEGEL GUEST AT New Pro Champion Re ceives $3,000 Purse. (Special to The Eagle.) White Plains, N.

Oct. 13 Leo Diegel, newly crowned P. G. A. champion, was the guest of honor at a dinner held at the Fenimore Country Club, his home organization, this afternoon.

Diegel dethroned Walter Hagen as the professional champion at the Fine Farms course in Baltimore recently. The champion was presented with purse of $3,000 by the members of the Fenimore Club. Before the dinner, Diegel paired with "Wild" Bill Mehlhorn in a foursome against Walter Hagen and Gene Sarazen, winning two up on the 18th hole. Mehlhorn stole part of Diegel't thunder when he turned in a card of Diegel and Hagen were even with 77s while Sarazen had the poorest round of 78. Some brilliant golf marked the round.

Being four down to Diegel, and lUIilhorn on the eighth bole, Hagen dropped an eight-foot putt fof birdie. Sarazen further reduced the lead of the leaders by sinking a 25-foot put for another birdie on the ltn green. Hagen duplicated this trick on the 13th. further narrowing but Hagen "came" back to grab 'the I next hole. The 17th was halved, and the visitors lct their last chance to even the match by losing the 18th, that had raced twice at Jamaica without showing the slightest trace of speed suddenly came into his own and beat Walter J.

Fans at Houston are et loss to understand the resignation of Frank Snyder, manager of the Houston Buffs, who gave up the Job Immediately after his team had won Uie championship of the South In the Dixie series. President Fred Anken-man expressed the opinion that a dispute over salary from the end oi Texas League play-off to the start of the Dixie clash was the cause. Fans, however, believe that something else will come to light in matter. Snyder said that he In tended to hold a conference with Huslness Manager Branch Rickey oi Cardinals, and that he had sev- OF fob 1 BEFORE ATTACK OF NOTRE DIE, 7- Continued From Page counted on as a big Navy ball-carrying threat, played less than three minutea of the opening period and Haro'd Bauer, and "Whitey" Lloyd were the stars In the final quarter thrusts. Chevieny, well supported by Nle-mlec, Dew and others of the Rockne ensemble, was the ball-carrying ace of the day.

but until they finally put over a touchdown most of the Hoosler gains proved unproductive. In the second quai-ter Notre Dame was held for downs on the Navy slx-yar Une. Neither the game nor the performances of either team measured up to the spectacular elements of Its brilliant setting in this huge lake-front stadium. The record crowd, which surpassed by a few thousands the attendance for the Army-Navy and Southern Califomia-Notre Dame contests on the same field, got compara tively few thrills. The notables In the vast throng that filled the big concrete horseshoe, as well as temrjonry bleachers, included Secretary Wilbur and Mayor Jimmy Walker of New York.

Statistics Favor Rockne Men. Statistics of the game revealed how decisively Notre Dame outrushed and outpassed the Navy in spite of being checked by numerous penalties. The Hooslers registered 13 first downs to 7 for the Navy, five of which came in the final period. Both passing games were wild, but Notre Dame completed six out of sixteen foi gains of 70 yards, while the Navy completed only one out of eight for an advance of seven yards.

Rumor States Harris May Be New Tiger Leader Detroit, Oct. 13 (fP) Rumors that 8tanley Harris would succeed Oeorge Morlarty as manager of the Detroit Tigers have been current here for several months.
