Worthmoro won the Montague Handicap, worth $3,476, after stepping the courso of the Jamaica track yester-duy. Ho did It In tho easiest' manner Imaginable, with 130 pounds up, In 113. In winning this race Wurthnmre easily earned tho distinction of the champion sprinter of the season of 1925. It rounded out his first victory on the opening day of the season, when he won the 1'aumonok Handicap with Kail Sandu up. Then he followed It up with the Toboggun Handicap at Belmont Park.

Behind him was Karmatlrus, which was conceding the winner 12 pounds. Flat ns the golden line shifted smartly. Smock head on into the goal post went "Red," the upright quivering under the Impact.

Only Inches nway now, they gave the leather to Wyckoff. Over the lino he went on the crest of a golden torrent. Six points for Tech. Wyckoff Ties tlio Moore. Very carefully Wyckoff sighted the ball for the crucial kick that was to tie the score.

Straight as a die flew the pigskin to its mark. A wild rebel yell told State rooters that the score was tied. Nothing human could halt the Inspired Southerners' now. They had tusted Yankee 'blood and found It sweet. Then it was that we Northerners saw the.

Wyckoff, Murray and Barron alternated in taking the ball, but It really didn't matter who carried It. -That whirlwind shift cleaned out a wide path through which the carrier raced into "open country." v.

Penn State's left tackle was repeatedly, "ridden" out of the play. The Blue defense was split asunder, only frantic efforts on the part of the secondaries haling the saffron Jerseycd runners. Twisting and twjrllng with savage ferocity, Wyckoff and Barron cut back after penetrating the neatly boxed tackles. Full seventy yards that assault carried clear over the State goal a charge reminiscent of 3'ickptt's historic onslaught nt Gettysburg. Where Pickett failed, however, these modern Southerners succeeded.

Soon Barron was across for the touchdown that broke the tie. Just to do the Yanks up brown, a field goal was later added for good measure, Yes, suhl' We'll tell you all It was a big day for Dixie.

John's College Athletic Association. Brooklyn, Oct. 9. PITTSBURG Tigers of the Insect world. Hugo Beadek, bull-necked, roly-poly coach of the Penn Staters, will dream of hornets for a week.

Ills blue-Jer-feyed pupils certainly stepped on a wasps' nest yesterday. At the start It looked like a Pi-on State Carnival. Tho barrel-chested, stocky country boys from the Penn-Kylvanla mountains seemed too solid and substantial for the lean, spider-legged sons of Dixie, One felt almost sorry for Georgia, until Stonewall Jackson's descendants gave convincing proof that they needed no sympathy. At the end, gloom clouds hung thick over tho State rooters, while the Southern students hugged their tltlan-halred companions deliriously in a transport of unalloyed delight. The Dixie damsels, gaily bedecked In golden streamers, made no attempt to hide their pleasure at the downfall of the hated Yanks.

Two hundred Georgia Peaches had accompanied their Knights of Oold on this Northern raid, hoping against hops that the Golden Tornado would not prove to be a. zephyr. Victory was the sweeter to them becauso It waa unexpected. If only there had been a band to play Dixie! State Best at Start. Except for a brief flurry, Penn fitate outplayed Georgia Tech throughout the first half.

Employing Bezdek's deceptive "hlde-the-ball formations, the heavier Blue eleven bored through the Yellow-Jacketa for short but steady gains. Penn State made a trig appearance in its blue-black Jersles with gigantic white numerals. Those Tetanic numbers, extending from neck to waist, rould be seen from the highest seat in the towering Yankee Stadium. Mixing up masked feints at tackle with flashy end sweeps. State marched through Georgia for 66 yards, only to lull i.own on an attempted fold goal.

Pangerfleld, a slippery squirming lino puncher, and Lundgun, a fleet HVt etnmW, "aid most of the execution. Unlike most of Its predecessors, however, this Georgia Tech Team had a real line. The Yellow Spiders beat back the Blue wave. Wyckoff Gets Started. Then it was Dixie's turn.

A winged-footed youngster named Douglas Wyckoff commenced to sift through the bulky State line. Georgia Tech employed the famous Hclseman shift, a variation of the Minnesota pattern. The backs Jumped into Hal ions at the command "hike!" There was a military precision, a snap and a click to the way them shift plays were run off, that made l'enn State's "huddle system" seem fctlow by We never have cared much for "the huddle." Despite ell arguments to the contrary, we think it takes "the soul" out of a team's attack. Georgia's onslaught also culminated in a missed goal from the Williams made a valiant effort, but the pigskin hit the' upright. The half was nearly over, when a bone-head piny hy the brilliant Wyckoff put the Yellow Jackets in hot water.

Instead of letting a booming Penn State punj. roll over the Tech goal-line, Wyckoff grabbed the bounding sphere and tried to tun It back. Two Blue furies were on him in a throwing him back to within a few feet of the line. State Just missed forcing a safety. Penn State's Strategy.

Wyckoff, from behind his punted to Georgia's 30 yard Exactly Ave seconds of the first half remained Just time for one play. In dramatic fashion Penn State rose to the occasion. From out of Bezdek's bag of tricks, quarterback Plncura picked an emergency scorer that was suited to the moment. Feigning a drive at right tackle, Plncura delayed Just long then turned in his tracks und hurled a diagonal pass to Dangcrfleld. The latter caught the pigskin on the dead run, with Lun-gren at his side to provide interference.

Three Yellow Jackets, sensing the peril, cut across to intercept Dangerfleld. They never reached him. Lungren was responsible for Hurling himself through space, this efficient blocker "took out" the two nearest Tech men as neatly as a bowler knocks down a rouplo of pins. The third Yellow Jacket tripped over his prostrate comrades. Dangerfleld darted over the line, even as the referee signaled that time waa up.

They allowed l'enn State to kick the goal, making the score 7 to 0 In favor of the Northerners. Dixie Resurgent. It was a berserker bunch of Reus" who rm onto the field for the second half. Smarting under the whip-lash of Coach Alex- nnder's tongut, the flghing sons of Dixie lost no time, in getting gack at the Yanks. An atrocious punt by Captain Hastl Gray of Penn State nut the Nlttany Lions close up nsralnst their goal posts.

Gray broke his toe at the start of practice this sear. it looked ns though he caught the pigskin with his bum "pedal digit," for tho ensuing punt traveled barely 16 yards. Heie, wt; Georgia's chance. Tho Southerners made the most of tt. With, tho ball on State's 22 yard line, tho Golden Tornado finally made pood its name.

Employing that snappy shift, Wyckoff, Murray and Bnrron knifed through the Blue line as A rip saw cuts Into yellow pine. inexorably the hall was shoved goulwurd. Golden banners blossomed like daffodlis along the east DanK or tne stadium. No the close-gripped elevens were milling underneath the cross tar. Above (he din one could hear the Southern drawl of Quarterback Williams haiklng his signals, "Red' l'arron, whoso thatch Is tile color of a half-ripe tomato, took the ball trifle too far fur him, finishing second to Silver Fox.

But he camo back a week ago, winning the Interborough and ending his season with tho best showing that he has made this year that of his victory in thu Montague Handicap. Fine Performance; Look Out for Him. It was really a fine performance. Tho big chestnut son of Thunderer Lady Moonlet dashed Into an early advantage from the start. Ho quickly took the lead, and, tlmiiKh he was conceding 16 pounds to Mlno, a recent winner, and a sprinter of note, ho carried the son of Wrack so fast, the half mile In 46 ii-o, that Mlno all but klyi-ed In the stretch and stopped.

Worthmure, made of sterner stuh. kept on and won romping by five lengths. Mlno Mopped, so fast that Wilderness, which was making his first appearance after a long letup, beat him out for the place open daylight. Lucky Ploy and Catalan, the other starters, never were factors In the race. Worthmore was the favorite at 4 to B.

It's looking a long way ahead to Bases Full Three Times; No Punch McKechnie Washington, Oct. 10 W) "My men fulled to hit with men on third base, and that about tells the story of the game," Bill McKechnie, manager of tho Pirates, said after today's Washington victory. "We filled the bases three times and could not seem to produce the punch that gave us the National lrfugue championship. Yde will do our pitching tomorrow and Gooch will catch." Stanley Harris, manager of the Senators, said that his team was carrying on where It left off In the series with the Giants last October. "Thrills, thrills and thrills," he said, "and, after all, we.

won the ball game, which Is the main object. They had us on the run for a while today, and some of their men showed their speed, gathering a couple of bases on poor throws. "The field was dangerous; but it was the same for one team as for the other. Johnson will pitch tomorrow and ho feels ready to re-, peat his performance of Wednesday In Pittsburg." IE SNATCHES 7 New Haven, Oct. 10 W) The University of Georgia team, which last year played a hard 7 to 6 game with Yale, today bowed to the Blue attack on a soggy field in the Bowl by a 35 to 7 count.

The Georgia eleven, coached by Crowley, one of tho Four Horsemen, unleashed a Notre Dame series of plays which carried them to a touchdown. Yule again pluyed without her captain, Johnny Joss. Both Yule and Georgia gained eight first down. Three of Yale's scores came as a result of intercepted Rod and Black forward passes. However, the Southerners completed three pusses during the afternoon for long gains.

The teams were evenly matched In kicking. Yale started off In the first period with a 65-yard march for her first touchdown. Kline made the score and Allen kicked goal. In the same pass and ran to Georgia's 80-yard line. Cutler and Kline mnde first down and two plays later Kline fell across tho line for Yale's second score.

Allen again kicked goal. The third touchdown for Yulo came in the second period after another intercepted puss, this time Root making the catch. Yale again scored In the second period and once more in the final quarter. The lineup: Tale (30). Po.

Tlmmara and Snort' Royal were the first to break tho line at the barrier. This pair, nose and nose, led until turning for home, where Fist Iron, which had been racing In third place, about a lengUi and a half behind the pacemaker, moved up. Far-iimtlcusfl, breaking rather slowly at the start but nevertheless showing more foot than In his previous race, was aoon In fourth place under a pull.

Kport Royal flattened out com. pletely In the stretch. This left Tlm-niura in front with Flat Iron tho contender. Then Sarmatlcus moved up fast on tho outside and challenged. For a few strides It appeared as though Sarmatlcus, which had been backed down to 9 to10, would head Tirnmara nun go on and win.

Ho finished first, a neck Id front of Sandhills which was three parts of a length In front of Claptrap. Tho last named, coupled with Rejuvlns-tlon, was a close second choice In the betting. Claptrap threatened to run off with tho race and at one time was four or five lengths In front.

10 OP) Contemplated protest by Pittsburg of today's Washington victory In the third World's Series game on the ground that Sam Rice failed to make a fair catch of Earl Smith's eighth-Inning drive to the center field bleachers was abandoned by Bill McKechnle, Pirate manager, after a conference with Commissioner Lan-dls. McKocnle, taking up the Issue with Lnndls, waa told that since a question of fact was Involved, no protest could he considered, since the umpire's Judgment Jn this case that of Charles Rlgler could not be reversed oq the field. The l'lrute manager was prepared to submit to Landls the affidavits' of two bleacher fans and eyewitnesses to support a contention that Rice did not make a fair catch and that Smith was entitled to a home run, but after his conference with Landls he said he would drop the matter altogether. Statements on the play, regarded as one of the most remarkable defensive feats In series history, found a wide divergence of opinion. Rice claimed that the ball never left his hands; that he caught It with his gloved hand Just before ho toppled over the short barrier In front of the bleachers In right centor.

"The only time It left my left hand was when 1 dropped It into the right to throw it back to the infield," said Rice. "Tho delay In my getting back on the field was due to extricating myself from tho laps of the fans." He intimated that several spectators sought to reach for the ball In his hands. Harris of Washington dismissed the charges by declaring that it was a marvelous and legal catch. On the other haml, two fans who sat close to the play declare that Rice dropped the hall, then reached In to pick it up. Tholr names are R.

of Altoona, Pa and Ralph Lewis of the Kn-glneers' Detachment, Washington Barracks, upon whose affidavits llc-Kechnio had Intended to base his formal complaint. They said that a score of otltcrs agreed with them that Rice, after clutching at the ball, tumbled over the fence while the ball dropped Into a boy's lap. from where It was passed back to him.

A crowd cf about 25,000 suw the bout. braved the cold to open Brooklyn's college gridiron season. But the Lewis Avenue allegation played In fits and starts, one moment revealing a high powered football machine, the next slowing down until It appeared like a cumbersome, undertrained outfit.

Certainly It looked not a whit like the machine that fought Holy Cross on almost even terms last week. Looked Like a Team That Plays Up To Rival. Some one said that St. John's is a team which plays up to Its opposN tlon. That Is the way lt played against Holy Cross.

Yesterday against a weaker Boston eleven, the Red was Just good enough to win. After the stubborn and eventful battle, which the bis- Red' team staged with Holy Cross, many expected it to make short work of Dr. Charles AVhalen's Boston outfit. which made Its season's debut yesterday. The two touchdowns represent the climax of lomr nlunclnc gains with Rex Thomas.

The last named, a former New Utrecht star, made his first start as a regular In the Red backfielil and piayeu a line brand of footbull. It fell his lot to score the first touchdown, which came In the second period. Weiss carried the ball to the two-yard line, but the ball went back to the seven on a five-yard penalty.

Salemi took the next chance, broke through tackle, reversed the defense and crossed the line. Thomas kicked the goal. The seven points apparently looked like 70 to St. John's then. Quarterback Fitzgerald and Captain Plumrldge tried to drive the 'boys, but the punch was not there and BoBton held the Red even for the remainder of the period.

Pluinrldgo and Prendcrgnst Rip Holes in Line. Thomas and Weiss, aided by some high-powered line work by Plumrldge and Leo Prendergast, carried the ball 4 2 yards In a series of bucks Just as the fourth quarter opened. Weiss burst through the Terrier defense for five yards and the second touchdown. Again, the Oklahoma ace kicked tho extra'polnt guul. Then again, with 14 points to the St.

John's decided to take things easy and to allow Boston to provide the fireworks. The down-Kastcrs started in w-ith a vengeance and much to the surprise of the St. John's defense, worked a long forward pass from Carlson to Captain Murphy which placed the ball on the Brooklyn len yard line. As St, John's was rallying to defend its goal, spurred on by Captain I'lum-rldge's heavy fists, tha final whistle blew, St John's Subs Show Real Football Skill.
