Wednesday, October 21, 1936 TIMES SI|W ARE VARIETY $9 By DICK It isn't very di fficult to understand how Jock Sutherland and Fritz Crisler^-the Pittsburgh arid Princer ton mentors. respectively—felt Sun- day morning. We shared in one of the biggest hangovers of this youth- ful football season. Yes, sir, the game has -been' iven. back to the fans once again! The experts are no more and are taking a back seat, and .what a- free-for-all shindig this will be from now on. The Panthers and the Tigers were the big fellows that went down and Syracuse was kayoed and outplayed. Down in Baltimore stadium, Navy was ousted, from the ranks of the undefeated, but actually they :were by far. the better team on that field that afternoon. Yale's new kicker, Larry Kelly, booted them into, their second touchdown unintentionally: Fordham-St, Mary' The Galloping Gaels will blow in from the Coast and you can believe those Other:.; western : coaches . .that they.arehot merely a breeze. ■ rie. of smooth-runriing ma- chine, defeats i has put Francis Schmidt, the Buckeye coach, on the proverbial spot He was very popular individual in Ohio while the Buckeyes were roll- ing merrily along, - However, there is nothing more unpopular in that section of the country' than a coach of a losing football team. ThiS; fiery and tricky mentor has . got to pull this one out of the bag to retain. his job. It's Ohio State. "■" Harvard-Dartmouth Old John : Harvard had one leg to stand on last week and the ' rude soldier boys took that leg away. What fhey're going to use against the Hanover Indians is hard, to under- stand. .Dick Harlow has so. many headaches already. Dartmouth, de- spite. one setback by Holy Cross, is on : the upgrade. They'll cop . by iyfp touchdowns. m Manhattan-Detroit Another Notre Dame system comes.

The Tigers have a good, sound eleven and we don't believe they took . Pennsylvania seriously enough. But from now on Princeton wili have things pretty much its own way. ;Piltsburgh JJotEe_Dame.._ T .. ■ The national aspirations of the Pittsburghers went down with an -awful crash and now they; can't even boast of the Pennsylvania .champion- ship. It was hot Duquesnie that beat them, but a guy called Psychology in' hi natural letdown after the great Ohi State victory the week prior. The Irish have not played a really potent squad this year. With only one regular back from last sea- son's topnotch team, they are un- tried, and Pittsburgh will knock !?m off. Michigan-Columbia ; . The Lions from Morriingside Heights were very impressive, against Army /and. gave the Cadets some very worrisome .moments. Michigan, on the other hand, has been slapped around unmercifully with Michigan State, - Indiana, Min- nesota all gaining victories over them. Lou Little takes his team on the road in their prime for a good game. But when east meets west, or even midwest, and there's a question of a doubt,, stick with midwest. * Ohio State-Indiana, Talk of dissension in the Ohio State ranks will scare a lot of people while Indiana, despite its loss to into town, the third in succession for the green shifts to look at; This one employed by .Gus Dorais is more ver satile. and dangerous than either Hunk Anderson's. or .

Minnesota-Purdue The outstanding game of the week- end! The echo will be heard for. miles-and miles as these two forward walls clash, and Bernie Bierman and Noble Kizer think - aloud., Year in and year out, these two wily teachers of grid lessons win much more than their share of games. ' Andy, Urim and Jules Alfonse are the spearheads of a great Gopher offense. They'll file through the cavities opened. by their line -' and negotiate the necessary distance to win. Georgia-Auburta .

The License Commissioner informed Hubert's' he; will not renew its per- mit. The complaints against Moss is made by Max Schaffer^ president ,of the Museum; William F. Schbrk, his associate, and Saleen Abbott, who conducts a .dancing~<act in Ihe 42n(L street place. Hubert's, Inc., besides Operating the ..disputed place, also conducts amusement centers at 52nd street.and Broadway, 1145 and 1173 Sixth avenue and ;2l6 West 42d street. The complaint.. states. that plain- tiff has. been in the amusement busi- ness. New York for more than 25 year? and that the closing- down of . the 42nd street place Would, mean the loss of an average income of $25,000 a year. The trouble started after Com- missioner Moss ived .. a letter from Judge Panken complaining that Dorothy Beritly, 14, who was under probation from his court, was found working in the 'bally' the museum. A hearing on the matter was held and Schaffer told thb Com- missioner, that he had nothing to. : do with the conduct of the dancing act; that Abbott hired the girls. Abbott said he took the girl on for a few days after she had presented a let- ter of recommendation from 'spilie- body from Mihsky's.' She repre- sented to him that she was 19 years Old. The other girls in: the 'bally' told the Commissioner they had en- gaged her to 'pinch-hit* for them for a few nights. Justice McLaughlin will hear ar- guments on the matter this week.
