WiM xwwBmm awtypjttj EVENING LEDGEB PHILADELPHIA. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, I91S: PITTSBURGH ELEVEN ONE OF STRONGEST IN LAND OTHER COMMENT ON FOOTBA PITTSBURGH PACES A HARD BATTLE ' , WITH CARLISLE' INDIANS TOMORROW Coach Warner's New Pupils Will Line Up Against the t Old, and Sensational Playing Should Result West- erners Are Working Hard for Penn Game, Oct. 23 IE r By ROBERT W. MAXWELL When the University of Pittsburgh football team walloped the Navy 47 to 12 last Saturday, the Dear Old Public forgot that the Phillies were setting trimmed and feverishly turned to the sporting page to see how It happened. The D. O. P. really was aroused, for the Smokctown athletes jumped into the limelight for the flrst time this season nnd lived up to the reputation wished on them by the critics In the western part of the State. Generally, when a team is handed the championship before any games nre flayed It "blows up" before the season Is over and tho dopesters spond all of their spare moments In explaining how It happened. While Pitt has not yet been hailed a the best football team in tho world, It Is safe to say that It will have a very good season. Tho eleven Is composed of experienced play ersplayers who know tho game and how It should be played and Is coached by Glenn S. Warner. That combination looks good to tho Pittsburgh fans, and they nre willing to rave about the chances of their team every time an opportunity presents itself. Faces Real Teat Tomorrow Pitt plays the Carlisle Indians In Pittsburgh tomorrow, nnd Warner's new charges will face tho first real opposition of the year. Carlisle made Harvard hustle last Saturday and, although beaten by a fairly large score, the touch downs put over by the Crimson wero due to errors made by tho aborigines. Their attack was swift and sure, they rushed tho ball 276 yards, and they made such a favorable impression that even tho spectators in tho stadium forgot themselves and uttered a few healthy cheers which Is going Homo In that league. It was easily seen that tho Indians had not recovered from tho moral effect of tho loss of Glenn Warner, who was their guiding star for so many years and who practically put Carllslo on tho football map. But they got , together better than In tho earlier games and showed promise of future development Their plays directed at the Harvard line alwnys were good for several yards, nnd they tore things up In line style when they started their taarch down tho Held which resulted In a touchdown. Will Answer Long Standing Question Ever since Carlisle Jumped into the foremost ranks of Kastern colleges the question has arisen as to whether success was due to Warner's coaching or the Indians themselves. Many have wondered how Wnrner would get along with white pupils and how tho Indians would get nlong without Warner. The Indians were known to be tricky and natural athletes. Could Warner develop a team of white players to the same degree of efficiency? Tomorrow's game will give answer to these questions. The old pupils will lino up against the new, and probably the same system of play will bo used by both teams. It will be interesting to note the manner in which the old Carlisle attack will be put Into effect by different elevens on the same " fjeld, and fiotball fans fortunate enough to witness the game are due for some exciting moments., Tho Indians nre coached by V. M. Riley, Gus Welsh and Glllls, all of whom began their football careers under Warner and are thoroughly Imbued with their former tutor's methods. The open game, with Its unexpected but thrilling methods of attack, has been developed by both teams. Double passes, fake runs, spectacular forward passes, in fact everything that Bends a thrill down the spine of the rabid foot ball fan will be exposed and the public will have a chanco to decide which team docs the most effective work. New Ideas Introduced Warner has introduced some new Ideas at Pittsburgh. Ho started to put them Into effect in training camp and has carried them forward as the season progressed. His latest stunt is to line up his team on the kick-off with reverse English. That is, he places the ends at the very front of the '.team, parallel with the centre instead of the guards. The tackles and guards drop back down the field and the fullback changes places with the quarter back. This gives the team a faster man for the run back and heavier men for interference. When the ball is kicked off, the ends turn and run back 'to Join the other interference their speed enabling them to outrun their (opponents down the- gridiron. ' This is not an original Idea, as it has been used several times in the past When heavy, fast men played guard. Warner has resurrected it, however, and it Is working as well as the old criss-cross play, which he dragged out of retirement and startled the football world a few years ago. It stands to reason that the heavier men are more effective at getting the opponents out of the way at the start, and the lighter but speedier men can run ahead of tho man with the ball to take off the more agile tacklers. Makes Touchdown From Kick-off In the Navy game last Saturday Dehart caught the ball on his 5-yard line and raced 95 yards through a broken field for a touchdown. The guards protected him for the flrst 20 yards, and the tackles, ends and other backfield men stuck with him until he reached the middle of tho field. By this time all of the Navy men who ran down under the kick had been disposed of, and only one man, the quarterback, remained. Just as he made ready to dive at Dehart two Pittsburgh men hurled themselves upon him and pinned him to the ground. The runner then had a clear field and scored easily. The Pittsburgh team knows how to interfere for the runner, and this is the strongest part of their game. Dehart, Williamson, Hastings and Fry are equal to. any In' the country In this line of work, and it is seldom that an opponent gets through to tackle the man with the ball. The linemen also have been taught to get into every play, no matter where It is sent, and they, too, play havoc with the opponents' defense. Plays Pennsylvania on October 23 Pittsburgh plays Penn on October 23, and it is this game that the West erners wish to win. For several years Pitt has been striving for a place on the Red and Blue schedule and their wish finally has been granted. To my mind, this is one of the feature contests of the year. The teams represent the largest cities in Pennsylvania, they are natural rivals and the game should arouse a great deal of interest. Both elevens will be forced to play to the limit to win, and there Is no doubt but that the game will be a thriller. From a monetary standpoint it should be a huge success, as hundreds will come on from Pittsburgh and the football fana In Philadelphia will turn out in huge flocks. It is a hard early season game for Penn If October 23 can be called early but it will do more to prepare the Red and Blue eleven for the contests with Dartmouth, Michigan and Cornell than any other game the, coaches could select. Don't get it into your head that Penn is due for a trimming. The team is bound to improve, and the coaches will have the men in condition to play the best game of the year. It is doubtful if many of the regular backfield men will be used against the Navy tomorrow, and they will be saved for the big struggle on the following week. , Virginia Hopes to Beat Harvard Another battle which is arousing quite a little Interest will be staged at Cambridge tomorrow, when Harvard meets the University of Virginia, The Southerners defeated Yale two weeks ago and are confident of repeating against Haughton'a team. They have all the confidence in the world and will make Harvard "show something" before the final whistle blows. It la feared that Virginia will meet with some hard luck, however, as her principal weapon of offense is the open, lateral passing game used by Yale last year. Harvard solved all of the plays attempted by the Ells in the big game In 1914 and should have little difficulty in repeating the performance tpmorrow. If Virginia exposes a new attack there will be something doing in the stadium, for surprises are not at all uncommon at this time of the year. Yale will take a day oft tomorrow and try out some of the numerous substitute against Springfield Y. M. C. A. It's a good thing that an easy game is on the schedule, for the players still are feeling the effects of the lhigh gains and several varsity men are laid up with injuries. The Ell coefee still contend that they were victims of rough play last Saturday; but unbiased experts who witnessed the contest say that it was hard foot ball, cfc s4e strictly adhering to the rules. They also absolve tho officials xpoM all !.

The racing will be of the sort that could be boasted of anywhere, at anytime. The meetings at Whltemarsh and Rose Tree will, of course, share In all this, for tho reason that the majority of owners that will ship over will race at the threo places."
