By EDWARD It. BUSHNELIi
Probably no Pennsylvania football team
vcr went forth to meet Michigan about
. whoso capabilities tho coaches themselves
v know so little. Thero Is no common
jj standard by which to comparo the two
lovons this year. Yet Michigan Is con-
flilont, largely because of the team's good
1 tarly season record and Its splendid gamo
against Harvard, while Pennsylvania Is
dangerously determined. One of tho
Quaker coaches remarked yesterday to
the Vrltur:
"For tho llfo of mo I can't tell how
good this Pennsylvania team really 1b.
But I do know that In fighting spirit and
football ability tho team Is now BO per
cert, stronger than It waB three weeks
. ago when wo beat the Navy. I expect
to find Michigan strong, but I believe
that If our boys play with tho sort of
spirit they are now exhibiting we havo
an oven clinnco to win."
Thero Is no doubt that right now tho
Pennsylvania team Is a dangerous com
bination, not so much because of Its
strength as because of Its spirit. The
Quakers haven't had any oxcuso to be
come ovorconfldcnt this year. They know
they haven't been playing good football
for tho most part, and that If they don't
redeem themselves In this gamo they are
not likely to make a credltablo stand all
soason. If they beat Michigan they will
liavo hopes of beating Dartmouth, and.
although Cornell men won't admit It, tho
chances nre that a victory over Dart
mouth will result In a victory over Cor-
nell.
Princeton coaches aro beginning to ae
a silver lining to that 7-7 tlo scoro with
Wvhlch they fortunately emerged frdm the
Williams game. To tho last man thoy
aro glad that slump didn't occur against
Harvard. They havo had their warning,
and all this weok they havo boen drilling
with tho greatest ca neatness.
Tho statistics of thn "Big Six" wcro
published In this column on Monday.
Herewith aro given the same results for
tho middle Westorn teams, nlno in num

HAVERFORD. Pa.. Nov. 8. The varsity held
another long practice with Vlllanoa College

a record which bids fair for future Penn
sylvania conquests. He Is tho present
Interscholastlc world's record holder In
the 220-yard low hurdlo event, having
covered the distance over the timbers In
24 2-5 soconds. For 13 years the world's

pion, two years ago. Cory originally
claimed Boston as his home. Ho comes
of a family of athletes, his father hav
ing attended Harvard, where he was a
member of the Crimson crew. Phlla

Bricley Teaches
His Other Toe
CAMnrtltXJE, Mass.. Nov. B. The left
foot of "Vie" Konnard won a football
game for Harvard against Yolo In 1008,
nnd followers of the Crimson feel that
thero is a possibility that another foot
of the samo persuasion may have somo
beorlnc on the game this year.
"Charllo" Urlckley appeared In uni
form on Soldiers' Field josterday nnd took
part In the prnctlco for the first time since
he lost his appendix. Urlckley tried fifteen
field goals and made fourteen The trials
were only from the 15-yard line, but thoy
wre made with the loft foot.
Brlckley's triumphs of tho past were
right-tooted ones, but It Is Impassible for
him to use his normal kicking leg on ac
count of the recent operation. In tho
meantime the Harvard captain, whethor
for fun or with a serious purposo, has un
dertaken to teach his left toe all the wis
dom of his right. Cambrldgo folk have
so much faith In Urlckley that they be
lloo he might prove dangerous to Tale,
even with no moro than a left foot.
HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS
READY FOR GRIDIRON
GAMES TOMORROW
Northeast and Southern Will
Meet in Annual Battle.
Penn Charter and Friends'
Central Scheduled.
Northeast High will be In top season
form when the eleven plays against
Southern High tomorrow In its first city
high sohool match. The line-up used In
the game will, debarring injuries, be the
came aa that which will start against
West Philadelphia and Central High on
November 13 nnd 23 respectively.
The men are lining up as follows: Ends,
Brelthaupt and Itldpath; tackles, Thomas
and Gardner; guards, Wetzel and F.
Whltaker; centre, A. Whltaker; quarter
back, Webb; halfacks, Hedelt arid
Heuerj fullback, Hendren.
Catholic High School is having a re
markably successful football team, con
sidering the fact that this Is the first
time the school has organised a team
In several seasons. The team haa won
all Its matches thus far, with the ex
ception of a T-7 tie against Wenonah
Military Academy.
Manager Mason has only two more
games on his schedule, with William
son and Frankford, and a mat oh with
St. Joseph's for Thanksgiving morning
to decide the Catholic schools' cham
pionship, Is pending. A meeting of the
representatives from the two schooU
will be held next week In the office of the
Ledoek to effect an agreement.
The present line-up Is aa follows: Ends,
Panzullo and McLaughlin (captain);
tackles, Smith and Cunningham; guards,
Clavln and Walsh; centre, Greer; 'quar
terback, Gerharty; halfbacks, Glascott
and Hunt; fullback. Mason.
Coach "Dick" Merrlt, of Penn Charter,
now has all of his crippled men back In
uniform. Captain Henry Hallowell ap
peared yesterday In a suit for the first
time since his injury. Hallowell was in
jured in the Radnor High game, and, al
though he did not play in the Lansdowne
game, his wrist has sufficiently recovered
and he will start Friday's game with
Friends' Central In the quarterback posi
tion. Preparation fVr basketball, for years
the most successful sport on Catholto
High's roster, was begun at the Institu
tion this week and 50 candidates reported.
Four men of last year's first squad, In-,
eluding Captain Riley and Dougherty,
are lost through graduation. Dunleavy
has been eleoted to captain the five this
season and he should find little difficulty
retaining his former post at forward.
Glascott and Mahoney are two veteran
guards of ability and around this nucleus
the team will be built
Manager Tunney has also organized an
ex-Catholic High team, formed of ex
star, which wishes to secure games with
any first-class teams.
Centre will be well taken core of as
Greer, a new man from Exeter Academy,
and Ferguson, of the second team, are
in line for the Job. Greer seems to have
the oall on his lighter eosapetitor, as be
has an enviable record as a cage artist
at his former school. The remaining for
ward positiea will probably be filled by
Cole or Clements, both subs who shot
well last year.
PERSONAL TOUCHES
IN SPORT
A REAL BASEBALL POEM
I'm tblnklnir of the old days.
And of games that then we saw.
And of platers we then thought marvels,
Dut of whom wo hear no more.
And thlnklnj? also of expressions which
Were families In that age
Like "Anson cleared tho tacks today,"
Which would hoad the sporting page.
Or, "Tho Birds put up a scrappy gams.
But Itusle shut them out,"
Or how win Mercer to the. clubhouso went
Because of His Del'a clout.
And. "Tho Big Four had on their batting
clothes,"
Though "Old ITojs wo a near,"
And how nuck Bwlng wound up the gamo
When he "flew to SlcAieer,"
Then on the field new stars appeared,
Likewise expressions dear,
As "Matty to tho rescue wont."
Or, "Hani sees his Inst year."
And, "The came was cinched by a double play,
From Tinker to Ever to Chance,"
Or. "Larry put the game on Ice,"
Or, "Jack Blierldan stood In a trance."
"Coot steals home with tho winning run,"
And. "Johnson strikes out ten.
While Milan stole three bags today,
nut the Nationals lose again."
But the phr&se that seems destined to linger
Longer than anv I've known
Is "Collins thon whipped out a single
And Maker tripled him home,"
It J. C.
A Western exchange throws some Interesting
light on the baseball situation In this wise:
"Players In receipt of big salaries today, that
Is the canny ones, are salting a nice llttlo
hoard away In the pork barrel pending the
time wljen X300O will again be a man' six
payment for six months' cavortlnr on the dia
mond for two hours easy day, some days,
'The preposterous sums now being received
by players cannot continue. Trobably some
of the contracts cow held will never be paid
oft In full on their present annual basis. For
It's a certainty that all the clube In the three
"big" leagues will not be In existence after
another year. Players with contracts slgnod
by a defunct corporation have very large and
juicy chances to bo left out -m the snow side
of the front door about that period.
"Speaker, 118,000; Walter Johnson, any
where from 15.000 to J 20.000 In prospect;
Cobb, 115,000 and other such Arabian Nights
wealth-herders, will be cut down to something
Ilka normal. It doesn't come so hard paing
such men money they're nearly worth a bank
er's salary but for the rank and file, the I24U0
men now drawing 13000 to 10000, they're the
ones whom the magnate's little coupon cutters
are going to snip heavily.
"And It's the saving boy who will remember
the war xinaiy. ae ne nies o'er the pagee of
his bank book, thankful that he baled his hay
while the timothy was flourishing.
Contrary to the general belief, there are
more athletes handicapped by overtraining
than by too little work. In the last analysis
th- ability of an athlete to perform In a given
eent Is not proportionate to the amount of
energy he has put Into training, but Is meas
ured by his natural nervous energy Of oourse,
athlete have to train, but In many cases
where men of mediocre ability have risen to
fairly good height In the sporting world they
oftrn overestimate their nervous energy and
thus Impair their eMcltncy Some athletes,
hut very few, have been alle to surpass their
fellows by paying, little attention ta training.
Notable among these were two famous foot
ball players Bternnson, the University of
Pennsylvania's greatest quarterback, and Wil
lie Ileston, the great Michigan halfback
Often they disobeyed the fundamental prin
ciples of training and stilt on the das of
their big games thoy played remarkable foot
ball. Tbey were endowed with so much ner
vous energy that neither too much nnr too
little training was able to sap their vitality.
The average athlete, however, can often use
hln.self completely up In an effort to becamo
efficient by overzealous work In practice, of
course It 1 essential that clean living go
handln-hand with athletic success, but a too
large amount of hard scrimmage work for a
football player or too much running before a
baseball game, or In any other sport is apt
to take toe edge oft training.
How different the recent election was from
some others. All "Ban" Johnson has to do
to become prealdnt of the American League
1 to tall himself to order, nominate hlrneelf,
second the motion and then declare himself
unanimously chosen.
"Ban" Johnson declares that he I going
to discipline "Ilugbey" Jennlng because the
Detroit msnager let slip ths Information that
'Tonnl" slack had asked waiver on Hender,
Plank and Coombs. Just what Ban is going
to do li a. matter that 1 quite Interesting. As
UiU is the "off-searon," the chances are that
Kuxhey" will not be finer: he won't lose
nuMiwy " uvi " ,,,, , nvu i lose
bis job, because Navln would raise too great
a howl for even the dauntless "Ban." There
are two things left for "Ban" to do, either
compel "llughey" to quit his vaudeville en-
fagement and stay home nights or promise
hat he wilt be good In the future. The last
Is ths most probable form that the disciplin
ing vlll take.

PENN MEETS YALE
AT SOCCER HERE
NEXT SATURDAY

Teams on Franklin Field
Will Be a Novel Treat for
Followers of the Game.
Franklin Field will be th scene on Sat
urday of the first Intercollegiate soccer
football championship match that has
ever been played there. The Initial same
should be one of the beat of the season,
as It will brln? together Yale and Penn
sylvania. Last year Pennsylvania de
feated Yale at soccer. In fact, Penn went
through all last season without a defeat
This la the first game for each of these
teams, and their respective strength la un
known. Coach Stewart feels that he
shrAild even have a better eleven than
the one which represented Penn last year.
He has retained the majority of last
season's players and they are showing
very good form
In addition to the championship soccer
match with Yale, a further attraction will
be found on Franklin Field on Saturday
In the score board, which will give each
play aa it occurs In the Michigan game
at Ann Arbor. This Is sure to bring out
a large number of students and alumni.
Those who have not seen a soccer match
will do well to be at Franklin Field on
Saturday, as they will see a good exhibi
tion of (he game.
