LAST PERIOD AND BEFUD

By Henry L. Farrell,
(United Press Sports Editor)
NEW YORK, (United Press) Con
slderlng thut It has the* finest field
in the- country to pick from, thut It
operates under u system thut does
not limit n player to certain veurs
of experience and thut It has closer
and Htrider supervision over the stu-
dent than tiny other Institution In
the country, IFI* rather strange thut
the United States Military Academy
has not met with greater success
in foot hall.
Wliut applies to West Point in
athletics arid football lit particular
goes also for the Naval Academy
at Annapolis, although It might ap-
pear that the athletic officials ut
Annapolis haven’t been as ambitious
as the Army officers In getting a
powerful football team on the field.
Perhaps it could he said better that
the Navy officers have hud the am-
bition, but haven’t.had the luck In
getting good players.
Army officers Indignantly dispute
the charge, frequently heard, that
they go out after stur athletes and
get football players by recruiting
methods. They maintain that the
Army wunts the athletic type of stu-
dent on the theory that the athlete
makes the best officer und thut
football develops the ability to com-
mand and lead men.
It seem* rather strange, however,
from the Nuvy viewpoint, that so
many slat athletes prefer the mili-
tary to the naval service, und it is
rut iter interesting, also, to look
through the list of army officers and
find out how many or how few ath-
letes who went through West Point
are still in the service.
This year the Army leant had
among its regulars: Ourbisch, a cen-
ter of seven years’ varsity experi
erne; Wood, u six-year backfteld
star; Hewitt, a six-year varsity back,
und Harry Wilson, a five year star.
West Point officials insist and
within their rights nlso. that the
military academy is being operated
for the purpose of muklng officers
for the United Stutes nrmv and
that its only purpose is to turn out
cuilets physically and mentally quali-
fied to leud Its military forces. They
maintain that they should not he ex
peeled to recognize eligibility rules
more than to reipilre thut all the
West Point athletes be up in their
studies. They plont out that the
scholastic requirements at West
Point are higher than at any other
college und that the life of a cadet
is much more rigorous and dlsciplin
cd than nt any other non-service In-
stltnftion.
Admitting, for the nuke of argu-
ment, however, that It’s nobody busi-
ness how athletics are conducted at
West Point and how players ure se-
cured, the point urlses "With so
many good and experienced players,
why is It that West PoInF doesn't
have more successful teams?”
Couching Is blamed hy sopte crit-
ics. Club spirit Is held us being
responsible by others. It hus also
been suggested that the military life
does not encourage Individuality an#
that Army football teams play too
much like they drill.
GREENVILLE — Willie "Young
Strihling, discounted reports he was
“burning out” in a fistic way. when
he knocked out Pay Kelser, New
York light heavyweight, here last
night. Keiser took the full count In
the fourth frame of a scheduled 10
round Bacas. The young Georgia
fighter weighed in at 170 pounds and
performed on the Gotham light
heavyweight In a manner that Indi-
cates he is probably In the best ring
fotnt of his career.
Herald Wantads bring result!.
Coa h "Pop" Read's Sapulpa high
gridiron stalwarts came through with
unother victory yesterday afternoon
when they wMiked «wuy from the
Cashing high school eleven, defeating
lhem In the last quarter of the fray
by a score of 20-12.
The score does not denote intu it,
as it wus not until the last period
In the game that the local Instltu
tlan opened np with un aerial attack
thut the Cashing youths could not
solve and when the smoke cleared
away the Blue and White wus lend-
ing hy eight points.
The Cushing crew have been play-
ing a good brand of ball throughout
the season, und the game yestenjuy
was played before one of the largest
crowds that has ever gathered on the
side line of a Cushing field.
As t.he local school was playing
under conference rules the team was
minus the playing of Sullivan and
Cornwell, who entered school ten
ilays utter school hail begun. Cupt.
Stroud was easily the outstanding
star of the In. ul entry on offense,
while the work of Smith, McClain
and King on the defense was very
commendable. Lyons, Rodman und
Canon also did good work on both of-
fense an defense.
The Headmen leave Friday for
the lust encounter on foreign soil,
when they journey to Joplin to play
that school in the only out-of-state
game for the Ideals this year.
Ncvmeher 21 the Blue and White
m/fets the fast Prosit team front the
A. und M. College at Stillwater, and
on Thanksgiving the crew will low-
er the 1924 gridiron curtain, when
they meet Cushing high on the Sa-
pulpa field.
The men who made the trip to
Cushing were: Capt Stroud, King,
Miller. Lyons, Rodman, Strickle,
Biooks, Smith, Jones. McClain, Will-
iams Vandever, Boatwright, Smith
and ^Cerlgan. Sullivan and Cornwell
will he added to the string when
they |pave for Joplin.

* filtered into New York. The excitement in Boston
had all died down before it was even knonw in the me-

cous-voiced “newsies” would be calling their extras on
the streets of every city in the country. Bulletins would
be published after every charge up the bloody slopes.
Shortly after the final shot was fired, headlines would
emblazon the story across Page One of every newspaper
in America.
