Despite the sultry weather, the var
sity candidates for the University of
Pennsylvania football team were given
a light drill on Franklin FJcld this
morning. The two elevens, without don
ning their moleskins nnd playing In their
street clothes, were lined up In differ
ent zones of the gridiron, and Instructed
by Head Coach Hrooke as to how to
play the ball on defense. The dllferont
signal formations were given by Hrookp,
and the men were asked vnrlous titles
tlons pertaining to the plays.
Hefore the short practice, the plavers
wen- given a blackboard talk In the
training house. Formations were chalked
up on "ip board by Hrooko and the
players received thorough instruction.
I'oaeh Hrookp announced tlint the nl.iv-
ers will be numbered In the coming game
with Gettysburg on Saturday. The mem
bers of the visiting eleven n III also wear
numerals upon their backs. It has been
the opinion of coaches, newsimnermen
nnd the geenrnl public that the players
on the teams could not othetwlse be
Intelligently followed while In action. The
rlrst trial of using numbers occurred last
year In the lndlnn-Dnrtmoutli game In
Xow York. Reports stated thnt the dif
ferent plnys and the men could be fol
lowed easily during the contest.
At Franklin Field on Saturday the
players will wear numbers In a prominent
place. Th- signal man will Hash the num
ber to the scoreboard, there to be recorded
In plain view of the spectators.
With but four days remaining before
the first game Is played by the lied and
niui. a probable line-up of the eleven Is
not out of place. To be sure, a change
Is likely to be made, due to nn accident
or Improvement shown by a second var
sity man. As It looka at the present,
Captain Journcnv will be found at the
pivot position when the refcroo's whistle
Is sounded.
For the past week Joumcay has Im
proved In passing back the pigskin and
getting down the Held. .Mike Dorlzas,
the Greek athlete, Is almost sure of a
position at guard. His running mate looks
at the present to be Russell. Hoth men
are Improving and should come nlong
well by the middle of the season. At
the tackles It Is a toss-up between Pepper,
Witherow and Harris. At the ends Seel
ba;h and Koons appear to have first
choice, with Vreeland and Murdock fight
ing hard. Mike Avery, who returned to
day, may get in at end during part nf
the game. "Doc" Irwin appears to be
the likely choice for quarterback. Hnllou
and Merrill will more than likely get Into
action also.
Draw Brings Young Phila
delphia C. C. Star and
Miss Helen Alexander
Together in Battle for
Local Title.
liAVBiiFOIlD. Pa., Sept. Sl.-Plny

championship tournament for Philadel
phia and district honors on the courts of
the Merlon Cricket Club, Havcrford, with

petitions, nnd many exciting matches resulted.

Cricket Club: Sllss Helen Alexander,
Philadelphia Cricket Club; Sllss Dorothy
Dlsston. Philadelphia Cricket Club, In the
upper part of the bracket.
The match between Sllss Dorothy Dlss
ton and Miss Helen Alexander was" one of
the best of the opening day'c events.
Unfortunately, these two stars wcro
drawn to meet in the preliminary round.
Sllss Dlsston and Sllss Alexander are both
from the Cricket Club. Still another un
fortunate fluke In the draw was the close
proximity of Sllss SInrlon Cresswell. who
will soon engage cither Sllss Dlsston or
Sllss Alexander In the competition.
Sirs. . Carey Potter, the Slot-Ion
Cricket Club champion, had Sflss A. Hrlu

Two of the best golfers In Philadelphia
are numbered among the juniors entered
In this tuornnment. They are C. n. Web
ster. Jr., and Ii. SI. Washburn, Merlon.
A fair Iden of their golfing prowess can
be gathered from the fact that they
have been chosen for the team t orcpro
Eent Pennsylvania In the Lesley Cup
matches nt Baltusrol netx week. Great
Interest Is being taken In the tournament,
which fact is exemplified by the largo
number of entiles. Considering the fact
that this Is purely local, DO entries Is a
very good showing.
In the Western Golf Association's an
nual junior tournnment, for which entries
are received from all parts of the West,
only 7" odd were rccelcvd. This compari
son speaks very well for the Interest
taken In golf by the local juniors. Prizes
will be given to the winner and rdunner
up of the tournament, and a medal Is
offered for the best score In today's quali
fying round.
George Sayres, the Merlon professional,

six. clubs of the Eastern League and
the leaders of the clubs of the New

any club of cither league violating any
part of the agreement would be fined

There was some little discussion over
tho players who have been signed by
the Eastern League clubs. New York
agreed to let Heading retain Bogglo,
who formerly played a forward posi
tion on the Glovervllle live. Frankel,
who had been released by a club, from
New York nnd signed by Trenton, was

The Carlisle Indians ushered in the 1014
football seuhon on Saturday In their usual
vigorous manner when they beat Albright
College by the score of M to 0. After hav
ing had nearly two weeks of cool, bracing
weather for their preliminary practice
they had to endure a hot, sultry after
noon for their first game, condition's
which were most unsatisfactory for good
football. The Indians' score was five
points Ipss than thy made against this
kame team lost year, but the rtcdmon
fumbled away an opportunity for another
touchdown. When these facts are con
sidered, together with the statement that
th visitors had as much weight as the
I Indians, w know nt least that the Indian
I are no weaker than they were last vear.
The coming week will see the first foot
ball games by all the members of the
I "Big Six " All look to have fairly easy
j opponents for the fltst games, though
I Cornell men are living In some trepidation
' over the outcome of Saturday's gam
with the University of Pittsburgh. Cor
I nell will hav a waimlng-up for this eon-
. test by playing Urtslnus on Wednesday,
! their only mid-week game of the I!)14 sen-
old Yale centre. But Butgers also had
good material, and since Panford is at
New Brunswick once more Butgers will
be disappointed not to hold Princeton to
a close score again.
Dartmouth found the Massachusetts
Agricultural College an unusunlly active
antagonist last year ami was able to
win by a score of only 13 to 2. Dart
mouth opens with the same eleven on
Saturday, and the wearers of the Green
hope to roll up a morn respectable score.
They ought to do It, too, because their
wonderful backfleld of last year Is In
tact and they have had the advantage
of more than three weeks of practice.
Because of the prominent place Dart
mouth holds on Pennsylvania's sehedulo
this year the Quakers will wtch their
work with a great deal of Interest. Dart
mouth has the same coach tills year,
Frank Cavanaugh, the old end, a innn
Dr. Carl Williams pronounces to be one
of the best In the country.
The game on Franklin Field will be
the llrst of the season, not only for
Pennsylvania, but for Gettysburg as well.

bl.Nth on the Cornell schedule.
A year ago Cornel! opened with lr
sinus and heat the men from College
vllle. Pa., by the rcoie of 41-0, and
there Is apparently nr- reason why Cor
nell shouldn't score a similarly eas
victory this year. But the game with
Pittsburgh threatens to be a contest o'
another character. Cornell blames most
of Pittsburgh'. CI points last vear
vpun tho prowess of ex-Captnln Wag
ner, a man who wns fit for an end posl
tion on any all-Amoricau team. Pitts
burgh has Just us good a team this year,
Elthough fornell ought to he even
stronger for this Initial game than In
IfilJ. Pittsburgh Is Mill being coached
by Jne Duff, th old Princeton and Bll
Amerlean guard, and his friends say
he has lost none of his cunning. Like
wise Pittsburgh has the advantage of
I nn early start, and although Cornell
' has done more preliminary work this
' vear than usual, the Ithacans will find
; Pittsburgh a tough proposition.
If last year's score could he taken as
! a criterion the game between Yale and
' Maine should he a near championship
' arfalr, because the Mulnc eleven last
! j ear had the distinction of holding Yale
to a 0-n tie. But It should be said that
I Yale played an In and out game last
fall and the brand of football displayed
against Mnlnn Indicated a slump mors
than unusual strength on Maine's part
The E'ls are never humiliated at the
, hands of a small college twice In suc
cession, and the chances aro that they
will strive for a decisive victory at
1 least.
It is a notable fact that Tale does not
1 open the season this year with Wesleyan,
' which from time Immemorial has been the
KIU' initial opponent. Bu this year the
Mlddletown collegians decided that the
Yale game, particularly this early, did
their, more harm than good, because they
J never had a chance to win and had to
1 endure a good deal of battering Just to
i afford practice for Yale. Some other
small colleges have awakened to this
truth, and nil the big universities have
. hail more difficulty this year In sched
uling minor colleges of sultlclent strength
for the preliminary game.
Harvard. Princeton, Dartmouth and
1 Pennsylvania all have what ought to be
easy games. iiarvara piays nuies, a
team which the Crimson beat last year
rather easily by the score of 14 to 0. In
asmuch as Harvard has a veteran team
tho chances are that the Crimson can
roll up a score of whatever magnitude it
desires, though Bates has been known to
make trouble.
Tho Rutgers eleven, which had the hon
or of drawing first blood on the Prince
ton Tigers last year, when the score was
II to 3 In Princeton's favor, plays In
Tlgertown on Saturday. Much of Kut
gers" 1313 strength was due to the posses
sion of a board of three coaches, chief of
whom was George Foster Eanford, the
experiments In the Quaker eleven this
year, and for that reason It need not
be expected that Saturday's score will
equal the 1913 figures. Gettysburg has
the same coach as last year, the man
in charge being Mauthe, the old Penn
State lullbaek. If Mauthe has the ma
terial nnd can develop It to play as well
hs lie played himself cttysburg would
ne murh feared, for Mauthe was one of
thr best fullbacks that ever stepped on
Franklin Feld.
There will be a lot of speculation nil
I 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, nnd the merits
and demerits of every player are being
carefully analyzed, not only by Brooke,
but hy his assistants. But the chances
aro that the first eleven men to line up
for Pennsylvania will be last year's reg
ulars or substitutes as far as thnt Is
possible. There are some new men who
In practice promise to he murh better
than the 1313 regulars, but for the most
part they will not pet Into the fray until
the game Is well under way.
The Quaker coaches have reason to fee
well pleased with the results of their
first week's work, for they have accom
plished more than any one thought pos.
slble In so short a time. Not only have
they taught the rudiments of the game
fairly well to a big squad of candidates,
but they have carefully studied and tested
the mprlts of all the men and sorted them
out until they have gotten all the can
didates working for the positions for
which they seem best fitted.
From tackle to tackle Pennsylvania has
available a line which will average close
to 2C0 pounds per man. As far as weight
and strength aro concerned, the men re
ferred to 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 and strength, they
must dlsplnv 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 SO or 40 pounds less,
because modern football requires men of
speed and cleverness. About all that can
he said of most of this squad of linemen
Is that they are making progress. It Is
impossible to be much more specific now.
An odd situation exists as far as the
ends and backs are concerned. The qual
ities necessary to play on tho ends or In
the backfleld are much the same. Ever
since the practice opened the coaches
have been In doubt concerning some of
the men. whether they would be better
on the ends or In the back field. At any
time they might be shifted back and
forth, and It is to be hoped that when
these shifts are made they will be made
with the same Intaltlon or luck as when
Roy Mercer first came out for football.
When he arrived the coaches resolved to
make an end out of him. but a train of
back field Injuries made It necessary to
put him in the back field. He almost In
stantly became a star In hi new position
and by this accidental substitution a
fair end was converted Into a scintillat
ing back.
How the ends and backs will be played
this year will depend upon the way the
candidates develop. With an oversupply
of capable back the surplus can be used
as end candidates and vice versa.
Enough was shown In Saturday's first
scrimmage to strengthen the Impression
created by their work all week that Got
wals and Matthews, who played half
back and fullback on last year's fresh
man team, can only be kept off the team
by the appearance of some unusually
high-class backs. Gotwals, while a
student at the Central High School, wns
n man of great speed and cleverness. He
is faster and stronger than ever now
and ought to be a splendid back. Roy
Mercer, who coached the freshman eleven
last year, declared that Matthews, who
captained and played fullback on this
team, was one of the best freshman
backs ho had ever seen. Matthews
weighs about 190 pounds, but he seems
to bo the fastest man for his weight on
the squad.
The Penn coaches are still working on
tho problem of quarterback. Irwin,
Ballou and Morrill aro the favorites now,
but It Is a toss up which one will be the
final selection. Tho coaches are giving
Irwin every chance In the world to make
good. Ballou has had the most experi
ence of the three and may develop Into
the best man when the critical games
come.
With the return today of Avery and
Bolger, Inst year's halfbacks, the list of
varsity candidates at Pennsylvania Is com
pleted, These men will be n strong addi
tion to the squad. Avery, while a little
Inconsistent last year, showed great stuff
nt times. With Iho advantage of his
year of experience he should bo more de
pendable this year. His Bpeed and de
fensive strength may cause him to be
tried out at end.
Bulger was In poor physical condition
last year, but at that showed good prom
ise. He is also a punter of no mean abil
ity as well as a drop kicker.
While last week wan spent chiefly In
conditioning work, the really heavy prac
tice will start this week, with plenty of
scrimmage and tackling drill. The num
ber of men out for each position arouses
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 the stuff In scrimmage.
The scrubs under Coach Harold Gas
ton have been developing Into a unified
team and may bo expected to put up their
usual scrappy game. In Berry, who Is
Ineligible for varsity, Gaston will have
a vaiuablo man. Ho kicks them a mile
and Is a streak with the ball, be.
sides being a wonderful field general. He
Is also a good track man, having several
times done the half Inside two minutes,
PRINCETON. NJ., Sept. 21,-The
Princeton football squad will get down
to real work today In preparation for the
opening game of the seaon. AH the
efforts of the coaches are concentrated
on developing the open style of play, by
which they hope to defeat Harvard and
Yale this year. Coaches Herring, Pen
fltld and Amen are firm believers In this
style of play, and It will be continued
next year, even though the Tigers lose
their big games this fall.
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Sept. SI. Charlie
Barton, veteran end, sustained a broken
nose In scrimmage Saturday, an examine- I
tlon disclosed last night. The Kentucklun I
will be out of rough work for a week or
two. but will practice as usual. Mead I
Is the other cripple, the Hoosier Injuring

cane for several days. Yost Intimated to- I

the rule for this week If the weather

When Smith or Green or Brown or
Jonc3 piles tip a couple hundred bones
by good hard work an' pluck, som
neighbor's always on the Job to wield a
hammer on his knob an' talk nbout his
luck. But Smith or Green or Brown or
Jones can keep his couple hundred bones
nn' let the neighbor spout. It's Just that
way with Whltey Doak. His knockers
knock until they choke, but Whltey still
holds out.
BUI doesn't always last nine frames,
but what's .the dlff ? He wins his games.
He's pushed tho Cards up top. Ho pitches
airtight long enough to let his pals put on
the stuff make runs enough to cop. When
Hugglns has to derrick Bill a rescue man
can take the hill with one swell working
lead. However Whltey docs the trick, he
does It. It's results thut stick. It'n plants
that count, not seed.
Bill's bush league was the O. & P.,
which busted 'fore on-nlno-onc-thtce. He
played with Akron's gang. He tried out
once a week or so with Clncy's Reds.
They let him go. Then Hugglns' siren
sank. Last year Bill pitched n couplo
time, but didn't Janglo any chimes or
even ring the bell. Look at him now,
though. Suffcrln' ham! He sure makes
good that epigram: "One never quite can
tell." Copyrighted by A. M. Corrigan,
The following contributed bit of poetry
was handed in by II. C. B., and Is right
timely, so here goes:
While the Giants and tho Braves are
fighting It out.
The "A's" have the pennant, of that
there's no doubt.
And whoever they meet, we expect some
thing soft.
But there's no telling what those Braves
may pull off:
For If they win the flag In the National
League,
They're a new combination and look
pretty big;
But whoever plays In the series In come,
To beat Connie Mack, they will have to
"go some."
They're off again today In the scramble
Into the stretch for the Nntlonnl I.cugue
pennant and a slice of the world's series
swag. With only 13 more playing days
left and 19 games to play, the Giants
face the task of their lives to shako
the Braves from their three-game lead.
If Stalllngs continues to hold his men
to the pace they have shown since July 6,
the Giants can't afford to lose a single
one of the remaining battles. The Braves
havn 20 more games to play and show no
signs of letting up from the .77G gait
cut out for themselves when they started
their 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, the
Giants must win 13 out of their remaining
19 to win. Should Boston win J2 of the
remaining 20 and lose eight, the Giants
have stiff work aheud, as then they must
return the 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.
Here's the answer as to why the Ath
letics persist In leading the American
League: For this season they head the
league in club batting, fielding, sacri
fice hitting, base running and runs.
The annual meeting of the Middle At
lantic Association of the Amateur Ath
letic Union at the Engineers' Club tonight
bids fair to be a very mild occasion com
pared with sessions of the past. So far
as can be learned there Is no opposition
In the field for the chief offices. Presi
dent Pawling will likely be re-elected,
while our old friend, Pete Carney, Is more

A story from Cleveland, Ohio, Indicate!
that very nearly the entire populace was
on hand to witness an nmateur baseball
gamo yesterday. Tho Item contained the
Information that fo',753 persons were In the
natural Ampltheatre stands In Brookside
Park. Such tremendous crowd reports
have been received from England where
soccer fans have gathered above the 100
000 mark hut not In this country at a ball
game. If the figures are correct It la
very likely a now nmateur attendance
record has been created.
Tho agreement of the New York State
Basketball League and the Eastern
League should he about the best bit of
news received by the advocates for many
days. Surely such a working agreement
will be beneflclnl not only to plavers but
to club managers as well.
Havre do Grace race course will be
S&l!"!? ,to.'1.ay for lts fa" raco mce' and
I hiladelphia sportsmen will enjov the

ers of the ponies have gone to the Mary
land town.
The Glencoo Athletic Club officials, of
jSew ork. certainly had tho right idea
In mind when they decided to stage a set
of relay games, closed to smaller' clubs
of tho city. Such a plan should be of
grent value In uncovering athletic stars,
many of whom would never otherwise ap
pear because they were timid. By promot
ing closed races. In a sense, a world nf
good will result.
A local golf official js of the opinion
that Intending competitors In tournaments
arc not punctual enough when It comes
to. moiling entries. Last. minute rushes

Abe Aitell, once peer of them nil In

might bo supposed. Tho "foxy one" Is
going to try and regain his lost laurels In
a nntno wun Johnny Kllbane, world's
featherweight champion, at Vernon, Cal.,
October 13. Since he lost tho champion
ship Attell has never displayed any of
those wonderful powers that netted him
tho title, and It does not seem nt all pos
sible for him to regain the laurels now.
Stranger things, though, havo happened.
Itte war dispatch: "London The Ger
mans havo been hammering for hours
on the Allies' centre without effect. They
have also tiled tho wings without suc
cess." That is well enough, but It must be
remembered that when the Teutons wei
In tho Vosges Mountains they worked
the "flrward passes" to perfection.
John McGraw In recent interviews
stated that the position of the Giants
In tho race was due to the jealousy
of the opposing managers, who always
saved their best pitchers to work against
his men- But In his signed syndicate
article he stntes that the players them
selves are responsible for being In sec
ond Instead of first place. Which goes
to show that It all depends on who Is
