He also sent his squad through new open work formations which he expects to use against Hill toppers, and finished the by the booters a halfhour workout. The Hllltoppers were shot through everything but scrimmage. New plifrs were given their final to up. old plays were worked again again and the coaches drove the agbad thrcugh many open field formations which are expected to do their part In stopping Mountaineers today and endlng th Blbe and Gray season with a victory.

Exendine spent some time in drilling his squad in the of breaking up overhead work. Th Blue and Gray mentor evidently fears the West Virginians' muchtouted aerial attack. The pers' coach that if he can top the offensive he has the battle half won. If Exendine's squad can stop the, overhead then they will have done something that no team has fuljy succeeded in doing this year. Buland's eleven started tire season against the heavy Washington and Jefferson outfit, which, despite its beatings at the hands of Syracuse and tt, is.

nevertheless, one of the classiest aggregations in the East this year. The Mountaineers, against W. and took the ball in the first five minutes of play and went the eattre length of the field by the overhead route, failing to score a touchdown only because the on the last down dropped tlib heave while standing behind the W. and J. line.

Stewart, Buland's clever quarterback. and Kelly, much advertised star of the Mountaineers' offense. Is t)ie pair upon whom supporters of jethany arc relying Kelly can heave, if necessary, but SteWkrt is the boy Who generally is-seen in this role, Kelly, as a rule, on the receiving end. In the Westminster game, three weeks ago, this pair completed fifteen passes out of -seventeen attempts in the first five minutes of play, for a total of yards and two touchdowns. Randolph, the Mountaineers 195pound fullback.

expected to carry the brunt of the West Virginians line-plunging work this afternoon. However. Buland declares his whole backfleld can buck the line with the best of them, and adds that even If the Hilltoppers succeed in stopping his overhead attack, his boys will give them plenty of other work to do before the game is over. The Mountaineers have played nine games season and have won five of them. The bright spots in their record are their defeats cf the University of Detroit and Carnegie Tech, crossing the dope In both cases.

There is little to choose the respective lines of the two teams. The backfleld also comes yery near to being a draw Malley. Flavin, Cronln and Jim Sullivan will start-for the Hilltoppers. and Stewart Elder. Kelly and Randolph for the West Virginians.

the field is in good condition and dry enough for the Mountaineers to show their vaunted speed, then they will have a slight edge the Hilltoppers. However. If the field Is as wet as it was yesterday, the superior weight of the Blue and ray will them a decided if It has Its early-season form, should have at least an even chance to win today. However, if the Hilltoppers are still in the throes of that disastrous lump which they were Wampled on for four straight losses, then the West Virginians have a good chance of smacking them for their- fifth consecutive defeat and hack to Bethany with a vlctX over Exendlne's proteges.

United States Golf Association announced tonight that It considers as "unfortunate" the step taken by the directors of the Western Golf Asj sociation Tuesday in proposing to that body the controlling au1 thority of the game in this country.

"We do not believe that the golfers of the United States want two ruling golf bodies and several different codes of rules, as this will lead to great confusion," declared the statement Issued by Secretary w- D. Vanderpool. "We want it thoroughly understood that we are always ready to discuss and confer with any golf body and to have an exchange of our views." Declaring that "the most Important consideration in the game of golf today is unity and uniformity," especially in having the same code of roles throughout the world, the statement emphasized the action lOfjthe United States Golf Association in sending a committee to Englandthis year to confer with the Royal and Ancient Rules Committee in order "to clarify the rules and make them easier of interprcta1 tion."

I Gambling in sport will be very hard to check as long as numerous well-known sportsmen insist upon wagering heavily on every game in 1 sight, whether it be a golf match or a football game. Betting thousands at one clip means little to many of these. There is nothing crooked in ck tf.elr play. i But the example is far from being a healthy influence. There are many wealthy men now who can take little interest in a game unless they have from $1,000 to $10,000 up on the outcome.

When only big stakes bring a thrill you stumble uron one of the mdst unhealthy conditions that sport can know.

i8 a matter of tackling, block- ing. interfering, kicking and receivw ing kicks. forward pass is only one element in the important element, but not nearly the entire show. It is a needed element for any modern attack where one of its main uses is in the natiire of a threat to scatter the defense and give the running game a chance. A running game that has no forward pass Ite threat to speak of has little chance of making any headway.

Yet Centre College, with a weak line and only two backfleld stars, made 170 yards and two touchdowns against Harvard without losing the ball.
