...large turnout of Senior, Junior, and Sophomore football aspirants attended the first practice yesterday, in preparation for the interclass season, which bids fair to be the most arduous campaign in the history of the class league. This year for the first time the class fields are just to the left of the enclosed Second University field. Practice will start every day promptly at three o'clock. B. H. Dorman '29, substitute center on last season's football team, will have charge of the Seniors, while L. R. Duchin '27, will coach the Juniors, and the Sophomores will play under...
Jealousy (Paramount). Louis Verneuil's play was much praised on Broadway last season for technical cleverness -its only characters were the ex-mistress of a boulevardier, her new husband, an all-too-human telephone. Maddened by things he heard over the wire, the husband finally went out to slay the other man. This story has now been made into a sound cinema. The unseen lover appears, but to no advantage. Jeanne Eagels as the wife employs a ridiculous English accent, the action is turgid, the photo-graphs dull. Silliest shot: Frederic March taking time out to suppress his justifiable...
...through a broken field. And it is some consolation, if you are not handy at theme-writing, to be able to throw an accurate forward pass -a Cagle accomplishment for which some experts rate him a more valuable player than Iceman Grange of Illinois ever was. Entering another season of seeing his name in big headlines and hearing it thundered from the stands, drilling with his teammates in the new Army jersey of gold with a red stripe, Cadet Cagle must last week have realized two things about Army football this autumn: 1) the Army is about a week behind...
Many and many a famed stalwart besides Christian Keener Cagle was last week watching plays being diagnosed upon a blackboard and making phantom first downs across an empty field and plunging ferociously at a tackling dummy. Yale heard that Freddy Loeser would play center this season despite the fact that he fractured his skull in an automobile accident during the summer. At Annapolis was Johnny Gannon who helped the Navy tie Michigan last year. Discarding the huddle system, Columbia rehearsed two crack, barking quarterbacks, Liflander and Joyce. Princeton's fleet Eddie Wittmer turned up, sole survivor of a first...
Squabble. A typical pre-season squabble took place last week, between John Carroll University and Ohio State. Ralph Vince, Carroll Coach, said his halfback, Ted Rosequist, had been lured to Ohio State by one Hal Ells, Ohio State senior, with offers of free tuition, free board, a spare-time job. When asked whether he would "prefer charges" against Ohio State before officials of the Big Ten, Coach Vince replied, "We haven't thought of that yet. We only want to get Rosequist back." Ohio State alumni also heard themselves abused from Heidelberg (Ohio) University for trying to interview Merle...
