..PENN ELEVEN IS TO MAKE
' FALIANT "COME-BACK" EFFORT
.Question in Minds of Followers of Game Remains
-; Answered Team Is Being Primed for
Dartmouth Saturday.
f By EDWARD XI. 11X13 tt NELTi
"What Pennsylvania does nsnlnst Dart
mouth on Saturday will be a pretty sUre
, BUIila to what the Quakers' football foot
ers may expect In the Cornell Rnme on
Tlinnksglvluc Day. Defeat always takes
o(no spirit out of a man, and In spite of
the" wonderful reception which the Penn
sylvania undergraduates gave their beaten
itam when It returned homo Monday
mornlnc. the eleven can't foigct the
Michigan experience over nlRht.
Uul football inlinclcs have often been
wi ought on Frafiklln Field, and thoc Is
no reason Why IIiIh j car's eleven should
not dt Its pntt to uphold the- piestljie of
the Institution. Time was when no mat
ter hovv badly tho Quakers were beaten
by Harvard or some other early No
vember opponent, tho team would get to
gether and not only swamp Cornell at the
nd of th season, but played the best
football o' tho year. It Is possible for
this year's team to make n similar record.
To Just wlint extent the clnnBes with which
tn rcliM are now ext.cilmentlng will nc
comellslt this time alone will tell. Their prob
lem h been unaually difficult derails no
many or the plajers are preen. No one -who
jibs not had football experience can appreciate
the etrela placed upon tho tnm In the Michi

pney know now that some of tho men, broke
tinder the strain, not through cowardice, hut
through ner phyaica! inability to flnht and
keep on najhtlnR- ftKHln.it overw helming odds.
In their efforts to make over tho team the
coaches must realize now that starting with
tho men no stood up under the strain they
are taking no risks even If tho new men have
le brilliancy than those they succeed. To

Tact, they haven't tried to ahlft any of tho
blame from themselves to the team. Hut It Is
raare to say that they know more about the
jtirsleai and nerve stamina of their iilajcrs
han they did before, and that what channel
they now make will be building upon solid
, ground.
None of the change tried yesterday Is neces
sarily permanent. The coaches realized that

Today It was announced that he will take

Tho "deadheads" at the New York box

but the police and the newspaper men.
Leach Cross was ono of those who had
to pay $3 to get Into the Garden, and
ho Is so sore about It that he has de
clared that whenever he boxes on per
centage to get to the club cany, don nis
fighting clothes and then "go on the
door" and see that every one seeking
admittance pays for the privilege.
Martin Julian, the old-time manager of
boxers, seems to have picked up a, good

COACH PIKHALA,
FINLAND EXPERT,
MAY COME HERE
Famous Track Exponent Is
Sure War Effect on Ath
letics in Europe Is Very
Disastrous.
As a result of tho devastating effects
of the European war, another Olympla
coach wishes to corns to America, IIo is
Ia Plnkhola, coach of the Olympic ath
letes of Finland. In a letter to Dr. R.
Talt McKcnzle, director of physical edu
cation at tho University of Pennsylvania,
Plkhala says we would like to return
to this country and coach some colleffo
or school team. Tho war, ho says, haa
practically killed athletics In Europe, and
although Finland Is at peace with tho
world, tho struggle has limited his work
to such nn extent that he would llko
to como to this country.
Plkhala nlso expresses the hope that
the Olympic games In 1916 will bo
awarded to tho United States. He says
that even if Germany should attempt to
hold the games two years hence, It 1
doubtful if nny of tho European coun
tries would compete IIo seemed to'tlilnk
that all tho European countries would
welcome holding them in this country.
Pikhnla 1b well known in UiIb country.
After the Swedish games In 1912 ho camo
hero nnd after taking n courso at tho
Springfield, Mass., Training School visi
ted all tho leading universities of tho East
to study athletic mothods, spending most
of his time nt Pennsylvania where ho
might watch tho work of "Mike" Murphy.
He completed hla first year as trainer
of Finland's athletes on November 1.
In his letter ho gives a very Interesting
description of his work and tho results.
In part, It follows:
"I havo given lectures on play and ath
letics in about ono hundred places. Onco
we had a ten days' courso for athletic
Instructors, and the boys seemed very
much Interested. Tho athletic standard
has risen conspicuously. In July wo com
peted Jhgnlnst Sweden, Germany, Den
mark and Russia at the Baltic games
hold In Sweden. Tho Swedes scored 65
points, Finland GG points, Germany 18,
Denmark 8 and Russia 0. Four ot our
best men wcro not entered, among them
Kohlemalncn nnd Anttlln, a mllcr of
whom you will hear somo time. In all the)
weight and javelin events wo scored first
nnd second. Myyra and Pcltonen both
beat tho previous world record for the
Javelin ln splto of the rain and heavy
weather. In tho running broad Jump and
running hop, step and Jump wo made a
clean sweep. In the heavy rain the Ger
man and Swedish crack failed to cover
21 feet 6 Inches, while three of our men
scored over 22 feet.
"I wlBh with nil my heart that 1916
games would bo given to America. I
think that Wnshlngton, D. C, Is too far
South. From tho European viewpoint
Boston would be the most suitable place."
The facts set forth In this letter provo
that Finland has mado remarkable prog
ress In athletics alnco 1912, when the Finns
were third nt Stockholm. The chances
nro that If the games were held In this
country In 1916 both Finland and Sweden
would bo represented by their best ath
letes. Rod and Gun
