I BY TROJN PLAYRS 4 Claim That Decision On Quarterback, } Fumble Cost Them Victory Over Iockne-Concied Team1 GRIFFITH UPHOLDS RULING' (By Associated Press)+ CHICAO, Nov. 30-The touchback play of the Notre Dame-Southern Cal-! ifornia football game last Saturday had added another controversial chap- ter to the colorful history of Soldier Field stadium, scene of record-break-I ing crowds and the "long count" giv- en Cftmpion Gene Tunney.+ The Southern Californians, when they landed back home yesterday, were quoted as saying that the play should have been called a safety, which would have given them an 8 to 7 victory over Notre Dame. Instead1 the touchback decision of Umpire John Schommer, former University of Chicago star, sent them westward with a 7 to 6 defeat. Offilal Rules Touchback The little Notre Dame quarterback, Riley, intercepted a Trojan pass neaT his own goal line, but was tackled and lost the ball, which was recovered back of the Notre Dame goal by three+ Trojans. Schommer called-it a touch- back on, the ground that Riley had not gained control of the ball before a hard tackle made him fumble. Major John L. Griffith, Western conference athletic commissioner, several Big Ten football officials, and other sports authorities agreed with Schommer's decision, but there were also those who maintained that Riley held the ball in his hands long enough to say he had control of it. All agreed he had not drawn it tight in his arms before it flew out of his grasp as the tacklers hit him. Seommner Explains Decision Schommer's statement on the play after the game, was: "I was within a few yards of Riley when he intercepted the Southern California pass. I was never more on top of a play in my life. I saw him grab the ball, juggle it, arl lost it when tackled. The rules say that be- fore a ball may: be considered to be fumbled, the player must have had possession and control. Riley did not have possession and control. I could- n't rule that h fumbled. A touchback was the only iLnterpretation that I oould make." Purdue Cage Team Starts Drill For First Twin Battle (Secial to The Daily) LAFAYETTE,, Nov. 30.-With the last rumble of azt.highly successful football season at Purdue quieting down into history, sport interest is shifting to Memo4al gymnasium, where for several week Coach Ward Lambert has had his court squad working "under 'raps." Full practice was begun this week, and will continue until the opening game, or rather, games, with State Normal here Dee. . The Normal 'tilt will be the first of a "double head- er" series, other games being arrang- eded in similar fashion with Wabash, Butler and Franklin. Five Lettermen On Squad Five lettermen, Capt. Babe Wheeler, Bob Wilson, Wilbur Cummins, Cotton Wilcox and Harry Kemmer, are back for the squad. Wilcox, however, will not be out for several weeks, and per- haps not until after the holidays be- cause of a football injury. Wheeler and Wilson are forwards, Cummins, a center who led the Big I'en in scoring last year and Wilcox and Kemmer are guards. Other men from last year's squad who will be available are Clyde Lyle, forward, Lawrence; Allen Stevenson, center, Rockville; Benny Linkemer, guard, Michigan City. Sophomore Candidates Promising About 13 sopohomores from last year's freshman squad are expected to make competition for Varsity jobs keen, and should provide needed re- serve strength for Purdue's hardest schedule in years. John Eckert, Vic- tor Gibbens and Harold Thomas, are forwards. Glenn Harmeson, football star, will report within a few weeks as a forward. Charles Murphy, the tallest man who has ever appeared on a Purdue squad, looks promising at center, as does Robert Daniels. All-American Dope (Continued from Page Eight.) should have the inside track. It is scarcely fair to consider such men as Wilson, Hewitt, and others on the Army eleven who have held places on college teams prior to entering the service and have i'ow played t I fifth, sixth, or seventh year c inter- collegiate football. L - r There are several exceptions to this on the Army team, and if we are not wrong, Cagle, wonder back who spelled disaster to Notre Dame, is one. In this case, he should be at the top. Lloyd of Navy is consistently good too. AC UKRINU TIULAIT!KSZ (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Nov. 30-The corcen- sus of baseball managers and critics in the metropolis is that Joe McCar- thy, manager of the Chicago Cubs, outsmarted himself in trading Sparky Adams andl Pete Scott to the Pitts- burg Pirates in exchange ')r KIki Cuyler. "I think the Pirates got all the better of the deal," said John Mc- Graw, manager of the New York Giants. "Adams is a dangerous ball player, always getting on base, and with a hard hitting team like the Pi- rates behind him, he will bother pitchers more than ever. There is a question whether Cuyler is as good as he used to be. He failed in the pinch;s many times last season'" "The :Virates seem to have received a lot for nothing," Ed Barrow, gen- eral manager of the Now York Yan- kees said. "They have fortified them- selves where they needed help and where a glaring weakness developed in the world series and they lost no strength because they could not use Cu y.ler. George Stallings, former "Miracle Man" of the Boston Braves in 1914 and new manager of Montreal in the International league, said: " I can see one reason why the Cubs made the deal. McCarthy may be looking for added batting strength, with Stephenson, Cuyler and Wilson com- ing up in a row." On the other hand, "Derby Bill" Clyner, manager of Buffalo in the In- ternational league, thought Pitts- burgh got all the worst of the deal. "They gave him away," he said. "I could have gotten a ball club for him and players besides."
