the Phlhidrlphln Cricket Club at St. Mar
tin's providing some splendid sport. The
lng down their defense ami winning out
easily, n-c, That was the signal for
the best I'lillly sprint of the year.
This victory over Now Volk seemed
to put new life Into the men and they
have been playing a brand of ball from
that date on, which, it kept up for
three weeks at one given period in the
season, would practically have cinched
the flag for them, provided or course
they had played fairly welt at other
times.
Just what has happened to the Phil
lies to wnlse theni up so completely Is
hard to say. Every one who has
watched the local N'atlonal Leaguers
realizes that they have the latent
power. The trouble was that the recipe
for transforming their potential energy
Into kinetic could not be discovered.
For the time being, at least, this trans
fiimatlon has taken place, but unfor
tunately tlm exact cuuse is hard to as
ccitaln. Possibly each man realized
simultaneously that n was not putting
his whole ability Into the gam. That
would be sutllclent to explain their
splendid work of the past seven days.
Outside of the feeling of general sat
isfaction over the eight consecutive vic
tories, local fans rejoice with f.rovr
Alexander at his success. The Invinci
ble right-hander has brought his win
ning mark up to : games, two of
which were won In the past week.
Those 2." winning shots tired into the
ranks of the allied enemy give Alexan
der $t'X). the bonus promised him by
the Philadelphia club if he would win
Z games for them during the season
of 1DU.
More strongly than anything else do
the llgures for the week Indicate the
flying pace which the Phillies have been
setting. Last Monday morning the
locals were In sixth place and nep'
exactly nine games behind the rubs,
the club which at that time stood In
fourth notch. Today the Thlls ore In
fifth place, but what is more Important
than this is that they have cut down
their distance from tho Ilrst division to
four and a half games, that Is. they
have split the lead of the fourth place
team In twn in the course of a wek.
The Cardinals, who have been replaced
In third position by the Cubs, ar not
uajr-3iS f our and a half games ahead
of the Pfrtiies. but jvdti'nc by the
brand of ball put jp by the contending
clubs her on Saturday, they are opt
to have the:.- lead cut down, to two and
a half gam-s before departing.
This afternoon and tomorrow the
Phillies and Cardinals meet In their final
contests of the year. Th games will
begin at 3 o'clock at the National League
Park. Should the locals continue their
splendid playing of la3t week they will
have better than a flghtlnc chance for
the first division, where on individual
merit they certainly should finish.

GRIDIRON NEWS GLEANED FROM LEADING COLLEGE CAMPS
By EDWARD R. BTJSHNELL
The Carlisle Indians ushered In the 1914
football season on Saturday In their usual
vigorous manner when they beat Albright
College by the score of 20 to 0. After hav
ing had nearly two weeks of cool, bracing
weather for their preliminary practice
they had to endure n hot, sultry after
noon for their Ilrst game, conditions
which were most unsatisfactory for good
football. The Indians' score wns five
points less than they made against tlm
name team lost year, but the Itednicn
fumbled away nn opportunity for another
touchdown. When these facts are con
sidered, together with the statement that
the visitors had as much weight as the
Indians, we know nt least thai tho Indian
are no weaker than they -piv Inst jenr.

There will be a goodly number of
experiments In the Quaker eleven this
year, nnd for thnt reason It need not
be expected thnt Snturday's score will
eiiu.il the u'13 llgures. liettysnurg lias
v!itir. this yenr. But the game with
, Pittsburgh threatens to be a contest o'
another character. Cornell blames most
of Pittsburgh' 20 points last veur
' t'pon the prowess of ex-Captnln Wag-
I ti.o-. a man who wns fit for on end posl-
I tion on any all-Amerlcan team. Pitts-
i burgh hns just as good n team this year,
F.lthntish Cornell ought to be even
''stronger for this Initial game than In
1!U3 Pittsburgh is (-till being coached
hv Joo Duff, the old Princeton and all-
American guard, nnd his friends say
1 he has lost none of his cunning. Like.
wise Pittsburgh has the. advantage of
on early start, nnd although Cornel
' has done more preliminary work this
year tlinii usual, the Ithacnns will find
Pittsburgh n tough proposition.
If list year's score could be taken as
r. criterion the game between Yale and
Maine should bo a near championship
affair, because the Maine eleven last

State fullback. If Mauthe has the ma
terial and enn develop it to play as well
as he played himself .cttysburg would
br. much feared, for Mauthe was one of
the best fullbacks thnt ever stepped on
Franklin Feld.
There will be a lot of speculation all
this week to learn what men Head Coach
Brooke will pick for his initial line-up.
Probably Brooke himself won't know un
til the day before the game. The sifting
process is still going on, and the meiits
nnd demerits of evory player are being
carefully analyzed not, only by Brooke,
but by his assistants. But the chances
are thnt the first eleven men to line up
for Pennsylvania will be- last year's reg
ulars or substitutes as far as that Is
possible. There nre some new men who
in practice promise to be much better
than the 1013 regulars, but for the most
part they will pot get Into the rfay until
the game Is well under way.
The Quaker coaches have reason to feel
ear had the distinction of holding Vale I well pleased with the results of their
in a ft.o tie But it should be said that first week's work, for they have arcom-
ale played an in and out game last pnsnea more imin uny one. wimiBni pus-
fall and the brand of football displayed slhle in so short a t me. Not only have
against Maine indicated a slump moro hv taught the rudiments of the game
than nnusuiil strentf'h on Maine's part, 'a'r well to n big squad of candidates,

bamlsno' " 'small collw'K ir. sue" tho merits of all the men nnd.orted them
cetsion, and the chances are that they
' will strive ior a uecisive viciuiy m
least.
It Is a notable fact that Ynlo does not
open the seasan this yenr with Wesloyan,
which from time Immemorial has been the
Kits' inittal opponent. Bu this year the
Middletown collegians decided that the
1 Vale game, particularly this early, did
! them more harm than good, because they
I never had a chance to win and had to
enduie a good deal of battering Just to
afford practice for Tale. Some other
small colleges have awakened to this
, truth, and all the big universities have
, had more dlltlciilty Ihis year In sched-
ulirg minor colleges of sufllcicnt strength
for the preliminary game.
Harvard, Princeton. Dartmouth nnd
P nns.vlvnnln all have what ought to ba
i easy gamf-s. Harvard plays Bates, a
U'sm whHh the Crimson beat last year
' rather easily bv th? score cf II to 0. Jn
; aamurh as HoTvaid has a veteran team
j the chances are that the Crimson can
roll up a store of whatever ningultudo It
' deslies. though Bales has been known to
make trouble.
I The Bulgers eleven, which had the hon-
I or of drawing first blood on the Prince
ton, Tigtrs last tar, when the score was
,11 to 3 in Princeton s favor, plays in
TU'iO'W!! on Saturday Much of Itut-
! gerb liilS str-ngth was due to the posses-
I fii n uf a board of three coaches, chief of
out until they have gotten all the can
illdntes working for the positions for
which they seem best fitted.
Fiom tackle to tackle Pennsylvania has
available a line which will average close
to 2f0 pounds pfr man. As far ns weight
and strength are concerned, the men re
ferred tn are about all that could he de
sired. But these qualifications are only
about one-half of what will be required.
In addition to weight an dstrength. they
must display speed and football sense.
Some of the men who now look big
enough and strong enough to push a
house over may have to be discarded
yet for men weighing 30 or 40 pounds less,
because modern football requires men of
speed and cleverness. About all that can
be said of most o fthis quad of linemen
Is that they are making progress. It Is
Impossible to be much more specific now.
An odd situation exists ns far ns tho
ends and backs are concerned. The qual
ities necessary to play on the ends nr In
the backfleld are much the same. Kver
since the practice opened the coaches
have been In doubt concerning some of
the men. whether thev would be better
on tho ends or In the back field. At any
time they might be shifted back and
forth, and It la to be hoped that when
theso shifts are made they will be made
with the same Intuition or luck as when
Roy Mercer first came out for football.
When he arrived the coaches resolved to
make an end out of hlrn. but a train of
back flehl Injuries made It necessary to
nut him ln the back field He almost In.
stantly became a star In hU new position
fair end was converted Into a scintillat
ing back.
How the ends nnd backs will be played
this year, will depend upon the way the
candidates develop. With an ovcrsupply
of capable back the surplus can be used
ns end candldntes and vice versa.
Enough ,was shown In Saturday's first
scrimmage to strengthen the Impression
created by their work nil week that Got
wals. nnd Matthews, who played half
back and fullback on Inst year's fresh
man team, enn only be kept off tho team
by the appearance of some unusually
high-class ' backs. Gotwals, whllo a
student at the Central High School, was
a man nt great speed and cleverness. He
Is faster nnd stronger than ever now
nnd ought to be n splendid back. Roy
Mercer, who coached the freshman eleven
last year, declared that Matthews, who
captained nnd played fullback on this
team, was one of the best freshman
backs he had ever seen. Matthews
weighs about 100 pounds, but he seems
to be tho fastest man "for his weight on
the squad.
Tho Penn coaches are still working on
the problem of quarterback. Irwin,
Ballou and Morrill nre the favorites now,
but it Is a toss up which one will bo the
final selection. The coaches are giving
Irwin every chance In th world to make
good. Ballou has had tho most experi
ence of the three and may develop into
tho best man when tho critical games
come.
With the return today of Avery and
Bolger, last year's halfbacks, the list of
varsity candidates at Pennsylvania Is com
pleted. These men will be it strong addi
tion to tho squad. Avery, while a little
Inconsistent last year, showed great stuff
at times. With the advantage of his
year of experience ho should be more de
pendable this year. Ills speed and de
fensive stiengtli may causo him to bo
tried out at end.
Bulger wns In poor physical condition
last year, but at that showed good prom
ise. He Is also a punter of no mean nbll
Ity ns well ns a drop kicker.
While last week was spent chiefly In
conditioning work, tho really heavy prac
tice will start this week, with plenty of
scrimmage and tackling drill. The num
ber of men out for each position mouses
some bitter scrimmages.
No very good line on the make-up of
the team can be gained yet. It is all de
pendent upon the men under fire. A man
may be whirlwind In signal practice but
yet lack tho stutf In scrimmage.
Tho scrubs under Coacli Harold Gas
ton have been developing into a unified
team nnd may be expected to put up their
usual scrappy game. In Berry, who Is
Ineligible for varsity, Gaston will have
a valuable man. He kicks them a mile
and ii a streak with the boll, be
sides being a wonderful Held general. He
Is also a good track man, having several
times done the half Inside two minutes.
PRINCETON. N. J., Sept. 21.The
Princeton football squad will get down
to real work today In preparation for the
opening game of the season. AH the
efforts of the coaches are concentrated
on developing the open" style of play, by
which they hopo to defeat Harvard nnd
Yale this year. Coaches Herring, Pen
field and Ames are firm believers In this
style of play, and lb will be continued
next year, even though the Tigers lose
their big games this fall.
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Sept. 21,-Charlle
Barton, veteran end, sustained a broken
nose in scrlmmnge Saturday, an examina
tion disclosed latt night. The Kentueklan
will be out of rough work for a week or
two. put will practice an usual. Mead
is the other cripple, the Hoosler Injuring
an ankle broken last fall Ho Is on a
cane for several days. Yost Intimated to
day that scrimmage twice a day would be
tho rule for this week if the weatl.er
abated somewhat. Line prospects took a

varsity fullback last fall, reported for

Thcro was some tittle discussion over
tho players who have been signed by
the Eastern League clubs. New York
agreed to let Rending reinln Bogglo,
who formerly played n forward posi
tion on tho Glovervlllo five. Franker,
who had been released by n club from
New York nnd signed by Trenton, wns
allowed to remain with tho Bengals,
who In return turned back Clinton and
Hcnschel to tho New York League.
Roy Steele, who Jumped to tho Cam

Eastern organization. Pedrnn, who had 1
signed with Greystock nnd who was on
the reserve list ot the L'tlca five, will
be allowed until September 2i by the
commission to decide with which team
lie will play. Grlmstoad, of L'tica, and
signed by Rending, will nlso be allowed
to decide by letter on September 20.
Sugtrmnn, who wns signed by Grey
stock, was the causo of a wordy tilt.
Tho Cohoes decided that If Sugcrman
wanted to enter the Dental School of
the University of Pennsylvania, they
would not waive a claim, but it he did
not enter college would demnnd his

If Stalllngs continues to hold his men
to the pace they have shown since July 6,
tho Giants can't afford to lose a single
one of the remaining battles. The Braves
have 20 more games to play and show no
signs of letting up from the .771 gait

thlr wonderful dash for the top. It Is
not likely the Braves will slow down to
a .500 clip, but, getting down to the "Ifs"
of the matter, If they should win only
ten of their remaining 20 games, tho
Giants must win 13 out of their remaining
10 to win. Should Boston win 13 of tho
remaining 20 and lose eight, the Giants
have stiff work ahead, as then they must
return tho winner In 15 of their remaining
games, dropping only four. Fourteen vic
tories for the Braves will mean that the
Giants must stack up 19.
