Knockout Blow Will be Administered Staggering .- Quaker Eleven Unless Cornell Fails to Pile Up a Great Score, Says Expert. -By EDWARD B. JJUSHNELL -'If Pennsylvania's football team does .riotwln. from Cornell or hold the Ithacans to a very close score on Thursday It will bev almost a knockout blow for the Ited and DIuo'b gridiron prestige. This Is be cause of the miraculous comebacks of former Pennsylvania teams, particularly against Cornell. On paper there does not stem to be any comparison between the strength of the Ithacans and the Qua kers, but old football men and football writers alt over tho State refuso to be lieve that even this Pennsylvania eloven hasn't a chance. The Quakers have overwhelmed Cornell bo dften and under such difficult conditions that the football public cannot adjust Itself to the Idea that Pennsylvania Is already beaten, even under tho present distressing circum stances. Tho Quakers will havo a hard time living up to the reputations of for mer Red and Blue teams. It Is not very satisfactory to analyze tho elemental strength of tho two teams, for when wo compare what they have done this year we cannot see much hope , ror rennsyivama. ifui that has never been the way to rate tho chances of th Quakers against the Ithacans. Balled down.- the situation st Pennsylvania no far n iplrlt Is concerned is this: The Qunkcra hare before them the record of their series with Cornoll from 1893. when the first game was plar4. to date, a record which outht to Inspire the greenest team to great deeda. la that tlmo Cornell has won Juat twice, though one game rciulted in a tlo acore. Cornell's two victories occurred In 1DC1 and 1013. The first victory for tho Itha cans came during the laat year ot Cloorge Woodruffs coaching regime nnd -was by a score or S3 to tt. Footbnll waa then at lta lament abb on Franklin Field,- and the Carl Williams recline took charge the following year. lAt year the Ithacans Won by & scote ot 31 to O. But that waa the beginning of Oeorge Brooks's coaching-, and tho rciult had been anticipated. But the moat notable games from the Penn sylvania, standpoint were those of 1002. 1D00 and 1007. for they ahowed the Pennsylvania comeback iplrlt at Its beat. The 1H02 came will always ba historic. That year the Itha cans had retained nearly all of their winning team of' the year before. Pennsylvania had a new coach and nearly all the playera were new. Therefore, the critics looked for a de feat fully as bad aa that of 1001. At the end of the Aret half the score was 11-0 In favor oC Cornell, and the Ithacana were running through the Quaker defease with ease. Between the halves oocurred a wonderful transformation and at the close of the second &U Pennsylvania had won, 13 to 11. Thera era been so rrany Incorrect Verslona of what LOM SHOTS FOR BASKET USUALLY CAUSE DEFEAT Best Goal Tossers in the ' Eastern League Wait for Real Opportunity Before Trying to Shoot. No matter how proficient a basketball player may be, It does not pay him nor , bis team to take lops' shots. This has been the fault of the Grey slock team of the Eastern League this eason and accounts In a large measure for their position at the bottom of the ladder. The fact that the different mem ber ot this team are prone to try for the baskets from almost impossible dis tance and angle la not In itself respon sible for defeat, but long; shooting means lack of teamwork, and failure to put the Individual below the team mean a vlo tory tar the opponent in IS out of 20 contests. ,JJe gaavas are scheduled Jn the gastern Cr4 tonight Tomorrow nlfht Trenton plays tuuden across the Salawars Itlver.

Just after the teams went to their dressing quarters nt the end of the flrat halt a menage came irom tho Cornell room that the second helt mlgnt be shortened It the Quakers dpstred. Home Cor nell men deny that they officially sent such u message, but that, at any rati-, wns the Im pression the Pennsylvania players received. Carl Williams, the coach, savethe message to the Pennsylvania, team without comment. Although he was not captain of the team, Walter lialrd, one ot the tackle, now dead, mounted a table and delivered a harangue ns Ininlrlnr as Mike Murnhr himself roul.i hum none. . usira toiu tne renneyivama filoyers f they that they would be disgraced forever accepted Cornell's offer. Ha Implored them tn win for the sake ot the Ited and Illua nnd told them that they could yet beat Cornell. The effect ot his words snd his delivery wrought an tmtant change in the I'ennsylvu nla team. They could hardly wait to net buck on the field; but. In the meantime, they sent word to the Cornoll quarters that they wnnt-d itn un'ruy. ihbl liicy wauiu Tiar the game to the end. and that they would win. Aa eoon as Pennaylvanla got the ball In the second half they held. It, and twice, wit!, Bennett. Daley and Gardiner carrying the ball, they marched down the field and over Cornell's goal. The second touchdown waa made tn the southeast corner of the field and It left the acore 11 to 11. It Pennsylvania kicked the goal their team would win, 12 to 11. No attempt was mitde to punt out, and Captain Gardiner, who hadn't missed a goal from touchdown all season, tried for the. winning point. Although the field was covered .with mud and the angle was very bad, Oat-diner's kick was true and Pennsylvania hsd won s game tho memory of which has In spired morn Pennsylvania athletic teams to victory than anything that ever occurred In Quaker athletics; In IPOS Cornell had a team several touch downs better than Pennsylvania, yet wns pre vented from scoring' In the laat mlnuto of the game when, with a defenio which one ot the officials described ss "Thermopylean," ino Quakers held the Ithaoans twice for downa. The next year Cornell waa an even better team, one which had triumphed over Prince ton and all other rivals with ease, yet the Pennsylvania eleven, remembering' those games of 1902. and 1000, won by the score of 17-4. It Is the memory of these games that hss made football writers sceptical over Pann sylvanla'a Inability to win thla year. The Quakera don't, know whether or not they can come back, but If they don't they will have hattered the preatlge ot Quaker lootbair. Coming right down to a' discussion of the footbnll merits of the' two teams, It mint be said that Pennsylvania haa at no time this year played conititsntly winning football against a big team. Cornell has' and Is deservedly the favorite. Just What effect the many changes mndo lit the line-up' of the Quaker clevon will havo on the morale of tho team or Its attaclc the- game alone must 'develop. Winning foot ball can't be taught overnight. At the same time, this Quaker eleven has not yet played the sort ot football of which It Is capable. Perhsps the rsdlcul shifts In the line-up and that wonderful rally of the stu dents will work the miracle; But Cornell can afford to feel pretty confident In lta knowl edge ot scoring football.

A senslbls ruling has Just been promulgated which compels all soccer league gsmes to begin at 3:30 o'clock In the afternoon Instead ot 3 p. m. aa heretofore. There has rarely been a game the past two weeks which haa not been prolonged until semldarkneas. About halt ot the final period of these games have been played In such poor rght that the spectators were unable to follow the ball, while the play ers had even more difficulty In playing as they should. It Is fortunate that those at the bead of the British game realtie this unpleas snt feature, for Its elimination means better soccer, larger crowds and generally a big booat for the game.

ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 21. Though various reasons may prevail upon the coaches to mako certain changes, the probable line up of tho Naval Academy team when It opposes the Army eleven next Saturday will bo: Left end, Captain Ovcrcsch; left tackle, Kennedy; left guard, H. II. Jones; centre. Perry; right guard, Graf; right tackle, SchloBsbach; right end, T. Harri son; quarterback, Miles; left halfback. Blodgctt; right halfback, Fulling; full-V hack, II. Harrison. Tho average weight of this team Is 179 1-11 pounds. The aver ngo weight of tho backs Is Just a trldo ahead of the lino, being 179VI pounds, whlla tho line averages Just 19 pounds. Tho nverago of the backllcld would be greatly reduced If Crnlfr starts, Instead of Falling, for ho weighs but 143 pounds, against 191 pounds for tho big fellow. Captain Overesch Is, of course, suro of his placo at left end, barring an Injury. ITo Is a fast, powerful man; helps tho runenr much better than most ends, nnd has shown soma nblllty In catching the forward pass at times. Kennedy was not up to Ills form during the early part of the game Saturday, and was taken out by the coaches, but upon his return to the game ho played tn much better form, and will probably hold his placo. B. II. Jones wilt start the game Saturday, but he has an excellent sub stitute In Mills, who would have proved a dangerous rival for tho place but for Injuries taking place at mldseason.. Onp f the veterans of. tho team Is Perry at centre. In defensive work and passing he has never had a superior at the Academy, and ho lias plenty of weight and strength for his placo. State Team Is Busy STATF COLLEGE, Pa., Nov. 21. Tho foot ball coaches at Penu Stato wero busy yester day afternoon grooming the team for Its final rurne next Thursday. Tho Pitt team, with which titao will close her season, s the most formMatlo machine to meet so far this year, not even excoptlng Harvard. motordrome Is to be opened In June, with some wonderful driving by the moet celebrated drivers In the world. Tho money has been subscribed, so there seems to be no reason able doubt but that the venturo will be a success, "Packy" McFarland. the Chicago fighter, who seems to hesitate nt nothing when It comes to taking on lighters over his weight, has again coma to life. This tlma "I'acky"' haa Issued a challenge to "Mike" Gibbons nt 145 pounds, and meet "Kreddle" Welsh at 133. It la not remarkablo that "I'acky" should seek a match with the great English light weight, but It does seem a bit ovorsmbltlous to seek a contest with .Gibbons. "Mike," Just now. Is about the best to bo had In tho middle weight division. "Packy," In our humble opin ion. Is Illy advised. If he plans a return to the ring he had better work out with some youngsters before tackling such seasoned mlt artists as Gibbons and Welsh. Northeast High School's football warriors arc favored to win tomorrow, but In view of the fact that we do not know wblch, we hesitate. Richard Hudolph will soon blossom forth Into a man of literature, writing articles for a newspaper syndicate. And yet some people contend that baseball la not educational! When Harvard from her football height Unfurled the Crlmeon banner fair. Her stars of glory caused the Blue Greet consternation and despair. The Army has been considerably hsndicapped In practice during the last few days by ice and snow on the fie eld. This will give the Navy team some much-needed advsntage on next Saturday. Uncle Sam's soldiers may have to go into tne game witnout anotner nay's nam scrimmage, which they need to put them on edge. While this luckless circumstance la ham pering the Army, the Middiea are getting In some good practice strokes at Annapolis. So, after all, the Army may not go Into tha fray as great a favorite as tt would had the final days ot practice been granted them.

It Is quite possible that this tournament will bo tho last of the season In the North, but having once announced a closed season, and not knowing but what another enterprising organization may schedule a tournament beginning with Christmas or Now Year's Day, It would bo well to withhold any definite statement on the subject. Philadelphia, as In tho past, will be represented, and, of course, the usual number from the Metropolitan district will bo on hand. As mentioned before, tha contestants will be asked to pay tho us'ual green fee of $1 a day, and the money thus secured will pay for tho prizes.

Details, to a great ex tent, wore lacking, but already Francis Oulmot, Jerome Travers, AV. J. Travis, Fred Herreshoff nnd others had signified their Intention of entering. A letter from S.

"Snowey" Baker, the boas of the boxing situation in that country, lias been hold ing a series of matches, the proceeds of which have been donated to the "War fund, many of the boxers offering their services and putting up real fights for no remuneration. "Bobby" Reynolds, of this city, will meet "Patsy" Kline, of Newark, in a 10-round Udut before the Fairmount Ath letic Club, ot New York, on Thanksgiving Day afternoon.
