The photograph above gives an adequate idea of the vast dimensions of the
Yale Bowl, in which nearly 70.000 persons saw the Yale-Harvard football game
last Saturday. That Philadelphia needs a stadium of this type and capacity is
recognized by every one interested in athletics. With only slight variations in
structure a duplicate of the Yale Bowl could be built in Fairrrtount Park In which
:TPENN FOOTBALL PRESTIGE
IS NOW HELD IN BALANCE
.-(A. 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.

occurred between the halvea that the writer
gives the correct atory here. 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.
By moans of a novel poetlo announcement
tin members of the Nemours (women's) dun
Club have been called to arms. The' first shot
will be 'fired tomorrow at Wilmington, Del.,
and the trophies for trapshootlng excellenco

the summons:

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.

NAVY PICKS TEAM
FOR ARMY BATTLE
NEXT SATURDAY
Failing Will Go in at Right
Halfback, But Craig May
Get a Chance Against
Cadets.
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.

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.

GOLF TOURNAMENT
THANKSGIVING DAY
AT LAKEWOOD
Three Days of Match Play
Will Follow Qualifying
Rounds May Be Last of
eason.
On one other occasion It was announced
that tho golf season -would bo officially
brought to a close by tho Country Club
of Lakowood's annual fall tournament.
The tournament pros hold and incidentally
won by J. XI. Maxwell, Jr., of tho Jlerlon
Crlckot Club, Another tournament will bo
held at Lakcwood, beginning with tho
usual qualifying round on Thanksgiving
Day, followed by match play rounds In
three slxteens on Friday and Saturday,
with tho usual prizes for winners and
runncrs-up of each sixteen and wlnnorn
of tho defeated eights, as 'Well as tho
medal play for low score In tho quali
fying round. 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.
Quito a flurry was caused In the golfing
world when word was received from Ab
Bccon that invitations had been sent out
by tho Bea VIow Golf Club for a tourna
ment to bo held around the last ot tlio
present month. 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. Boyd Carrigan, goneral manager of
the Sen. View Club, states that the story
was mndo out of the wholo cloth and, as
no tournament was even thought of, the
report "was probably the work of an over
zealoUB shore correspondent.
Two fight clubs will stage attractive
fight programs tonight. The Palace Atli
letlo Club of Norrlstown, under "Lew"
Balloy's leadership, will put on "Willie"
Ilorman, of this city, and "Joe" Hcffer

Boxing is going on In full blast In Aus
tralia, despite the -war. Many matches
are being held, but the purses are smaller.
"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

10-round Udut before the Fairmount Ath

champion, and 'Charley" White, who re
cently fought "Freddy" Welsh, the light
weight champion, were to have boxed ten
rounds at Milwaukee, November SO, but
the bout has been called off by White's
