OPEN CRITICISM OF FOOTBALL
SYSTEM AT PENN PUT FOLWELL
, , IN LINE FOR JOB AS COACH
Figst Man With Courage to Protest Against
Gridiron Conditions and Coaching Methods
Gets Chance to Pull Red and Blue '
Eleven Out of the Rut
IT SEEMS pnrtlcutnrly flttlnir Hint tho llrat man with nerve enough to come
nut publicly In n donunclatlon of football conditions nnd tho coaching: system
UJcnnsylvnnm should be tho man selected to put tho Ited nnd Uluo back on
the "right pub. Every one know that the system wns at fault and that l'enn
wouldprobnbly remain In therut for years to come unless a chaiiRO was made,
lult for some renson not one "of the old timers or men of tho new school who
understood conditions would raise his voice In protest.
When Itobert C. FnHvcll returned to this city after a most successful year
nt WashlhRlon nnd Jefferson ho bitterly nssnlted football conditions at l'enn.
Ho said the material wns ns Rood If not better than nt nny coIIcro In tho Knst:
wild the coaches did not know their business, nnd Hint n chnnRO was needed,
with one of tho youtiRcr clement who had played ami ranched tho new gmuc
In charge. Further than that Kolvvoll declared that he would titko the concliliiR
position for nothltiR if I'enri needed him, and that ho would turn out a stronger
foam than tho Ked nnd Uluc has had In icnrs.
Folwell Hoostcd Uill Itollcnhack
Many of Folwell's friends who had been boosting him for tho head coaching
position declared thnt this outbreak had ruined l-'olwelfs clinnco to bo niipolnted.
Folwell declared that ho did not caro whether he was nppolnted ns Ioiir ns u
chnngo wns inudo. He pave out a statement to thnt effect, In which he boosted
15111 Hollcnback for tho position. This started the llollenback boom, nnd It
seemed for n time as If Hollcnback would surely bo appointed.
Tho result Is practically the same, ns Kolwcll nnd Hollcnback each agreed
to appoint the other ns his nsslstnut In case cither should bo selected head coach
with full power to appoint his own nsslstnnts. Unless the Kitotlmll Committee '
Rtrlps the coach of this power Hollcnback will bo asked to nld Kolwott In lending
Penn from tho wilderness. It Is said that Hollcnback dislikes the Idcn of play
ing "second fiddle," but ho has made his bargain nnd should turn out and help
Folwell with his tnsk.
Tho student body greeted the announcements of KohvcU's nppolntmcnt with
joy, while former stars and Rrads also wero elated. Those who had favored
Hollcnback nro Just as well pleased, ns they know Folwell nnd Hollcnback nro
of tho same typo, nnd that a new system will bo Inaugurated. Folwell never
has failed to develop a strong team nnd has never had material up to the stand
ard of thnt which he will have next fall. It looks like n. new era in football
at Fenn.
Poor Teams at l'enn Since 1D08
Since 190S Pcnii has not been represented by n llrst-clnss eleven, and many
of the teams have been so weak that they were almost a. disgrace to an institu
tion with such splendid material nnd so large n student body from which to
elect Its material, Tho 190S eleven, captained by Dill llollenback, wns really
a wonderful team, but It played a poor schedule and was given little credit
for Its splendid showing.
Penn stood still nfter that season, while other coaches and coaching boards
grasped tho possibilities of tho now game nnd changed their sj'stcms. Penn
would probably have continued to go back hnd it not been for Fohvoll's sen
ttatlQnal outburst, which awakened tho student body nnd graduates to the true
state of affairs.
Evcniiiff Lcdpcr Printed First Story
Four wcelcs ago the Kve.ni.no Lnnorcn picked six former stars ns cnnchiiiE
possibilities, and a member of tho Football Committee admitted after yester
day's meetlnR that tho six men, Folwell, IlollcnbacU, Dickson, Hcnnctt, Pom
mer nnd Xlesler, were most seriously considered of the eleven candidates.
It also might be well to mention that the Evkmno LiiDtmn, In nn exclusive
utory, told its readers on Monday that Bob Folwell had been selected and that
he would be passed upon by the Board of Directors. The Evkxi.vh Lnnami
congratulates Penn upon Its selection. It presages success for the Red and
Blue on the gridiron next fall.
" Lieutenant Hobbs is All-round Athlete
Lieutenant Leland S. Hobbs, a. Phlladclphian, who Is generally recognized
as the greatest all-round athlete ever turned out at West Point, was married
at Tucson, Ariz., Monday, to Miss Lucy Berger, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
"William J. Berger, Jr., of West Philadelphia. In tho future the Hobbses will rc
ftide at Xognlcs, Ariz., where the famous athlete Is stationed.
It has been said recently thnt Elmer Ollphant was tho first Army athlete
tu earn four varsity letters In one year, but In 1013 Hobbs earned live and was
the only athlete who ver attended West Point who earned tho varsity letter
In football, baseball and bnsketball for four consecutive years. Ollphant would
probably have equaled this record, but for some unknown reason was kept out
of tho Army-Navy game In 10H. and thus deprived of one letter.
Philadelphia Needs Indoor Tennis Courts
The crying need of Philadelphia tennis players is a group of good Indoor
courts for winter use. Every large city In the country has facilities for winter
tennis playing except our own. When a Phlladelphlan wishes to play tennis,
during the frigid months he is forced to go to Xew York, where any number
cf excellent courts may be found.
In February tho national indoor tournament will be held In Xew York. If
the local players had a chance to practice here the chances are that they would
make a great showing. If not a clean-up. But as It Is, oven If any Philadel
phlans do enter the tournament they will bo so badly handicapped from lack
of practice that they will have little opportunity to get through many rounds.
Wallace Johnson and a number of other pronjlnent tennis players Indulge In
racquets, squash racquets and other games of this character. But If tho clubs
would make any attempt they could easily arrange to build the indoor courts
necessary to keep tho bulk of tennis players In practice all winter.
Fred Fulton Gets Chance Against Flynn
When the Fulton-Willard heavyweight championship battle was called off
by the New Orleans promoters, tho Minnesota giant beat a hasty retreat for tho
old homestead 'way up North and vowed that he was the victim of u "frame-up."
He decided to give up the boxing game for good and earn an honest living at
plastering.
However, Fulton's good resolutions lasted but two days. He was not allowed
to retire after tho efficient work done by his press agents and a match was
arranged with "Porky" Flynn. Fulton gleefully accepted and the fuss will bo
taged In a month In Tommy Burns' new arena. It will be a. real test for the
new challenger, and the public will have an opportunity to see whether or not
be has. the goods.
He Might Not Be a Bad Singer at That
Pjrealdent Tener of the National League Is so anxious to have his umpiring
itaft working without continual wrangling nnd tho suspension of players that
he has formulated a code of Instructions for the officials. After reading over
the list of requirements a fan remarked, "I guess Bill Byron Is going to sing
pext summer."
'
Pierre Maupome Shooting in Fine Form
Local billiard enthusiasts are not surprised at the brilliant work of Pierre
Maupome, who Is leading the Interstate Three-Cushlon Billiard League. Mau
pome, who is now representing St. Louis, was the Philadelphia entrant last year
and would probably have won the championship had It not been for the number
of matches lost by his substitute when he was sick. Maupome Is probably the
greatest trick shooter in the billiard game,
Practically every small college In the country wants to adopt Houghton's
system. Bo do oil major league managers want to adopt Mack's system with
a Collins, Mclnnls, Baker and Barry Infleld thrown In.
Tk ...
Barney Sedran kept Jasper In the running in both games at Reading Satur
day by tossing foul goals In a remarkable manner. Sedran landed 18 single
petorters out of 23 tries In (he afternoon game and ndded 15 out of IS In the
vaeinr, giving him a, total of 33 for the day. Oddly enough, Andy Sears made
M&ctlr the .same total In each game, but Sears had three more tries.

as top-notch boxers, and n tournament to

an Interesting nffalr for light fans and
also a good Investment for n promoter.
"Chicago has one boxer who stands out
as a likely successor to Welsh's crown In
Charley White," continued Philadelphia
Jnwu. "New York Is boosting both
llenny Leonard and Johnny Dundee for a
mix with the lightweight title nt stake,
while several other cities are claiming
the "real" pretender for the laurels. Then
why .shouldn't Philadelphia decide on a
certain Individual to drop like a CJerman
bomb In the path of the Englishman?
"As HO-round bouts seem" to be the
maximum limit for championship contests
at the present time, I ."-round encounters
certainly would familiarize Philadelphia
lighters with the score of sessions loute.
With ir-iound matches staged but half
an hour's ride from the central section of
the city, Philadelphia can gain tho
prestige of being a leading developer of
championship material.
"At the present time two big problems
stand out prominently In tight circles here.
Tho bantam question as to supremacy, as
well ns the lightweight argument. Is hold
ing forth. Local champions of lKth
classes enn be determined by an elimina
tion process. And with 13 rounds to de

ENTERTAINING A PROSPECT
Jerome Travcrs Sees
Bright Year in Golf
Joromo Travcrs mnkes the ap
pended prediction to golfers of tho
United States: I said a year sipo
that polf skill in this country had
increased to such an extent thnt
,u llltll I.UUIU HU 1UWU tVlkll UVUJI
a fair chance to win n champion
ship. That was proved at Detroit
where within two days tho open
champion, the amateur champion
nnd the Western chnmpion were nil
dropped out.
There arc now too many pood
players for any two or three men
j to rule the field, for 101G will bring
out the best polf that America has
' ever known. The improvement was
' great through 1915, but I believe it
I will be oven greater this year on
account of the largo number of
competitions held last season.
These competitions nil added to
the experience of the youngsters,
and experience is one of the most
important features of successful i
tournament golf. The youngsters
have learned to play their shots
correctly under fire, and this is the
test.

In the evening the more serious nffulrs
of the day were forgotten at a dinner

30) members of the Nntlonal Automobile
Chamber of Commerce with their guests,
at which Senator Thomas P. Gore, of Ok

and Ouimet Best Amateur Golf ersSays Rice
By GRANTLAND RICE
WHAT hfis 1918 In view for Mfturlco Mc
Loughlln? Just a year nnd'a half ago
thl California nrllllant In the Land of
Lawn Tennis had reached the highest
hclfiht ever known by an American
filnycr
Just a year nnd a half ago ho had within
less than a week overpowered Norman
Brookes nnd the Into Anthony Wilding,
two of the supermen of the game.
This was a feat unparngoncd In lawn
tennis plnf. That was only n year and a
half ago, nnd yet McLaughlin, fltlll a
voiitii? mnn. Is rnled bv molt of the lead
ing experts with only nn outside chance to I
nng nnomcr cnnmpionsnip.
McLotighlln's slump stands as one of
the queerest athletic turni on record.
Since beating Brookes and Wilding In
1914 where he renched the top his game
has never been tho same.
Thnt same season ho wns beaten by
Norrla Williams, but to many this defent
xv ns merely "one of those things," It
was something more. That defeat was
prophetic of the slmtlovv gathering above
JIcLoughlln's gnmc; still a fine gam'', but
not the smashing game of old.
e
1915 prox-etl welt enough that California
Mac had loit something from his best
dayi According to George M. Church,
part of this slump was duo to ItcLough
lln's Bfivtce. "Mac," says Church, "hits
the ball on the left corner In place ot tha
right coiner. This shift puts nn ovcr
xvhelmlng strain upon his stomach mus
cIch, ns It Isn't a normal method. It was
the most effective service I have ex'er
seen, when nt Its most, but It was quite
evident that such n scrvlco could only
last so long. Tho last blow came when
Mac met Drooko nnd Wilding. The cannon-ball
stuff has never been In cvidenco
since."
e
There Is a general feeling among lead
ing tennis players that MCLoughlln will
not reach tho height again. Perhnpi
they are right. They nil sny that young
William Johnston Is tho best lawn ten
nis player America has over produced.
They Ilgurc that he should bo the logical
fax'orlte for tho next title campaign.
Hut there It a general feeling among
those not so closely adjacent to tho ex
pert dope that Mclaughlin Isn't yet
through. They still oellcve he can make
one more return trip. They believe ho
will be a good bit better In 1916 than ho
was last car. Here's hoping they are
right. I 'or McLoughlln has done more
for lawn tennis In America, In tho wny
of popularizing a great sport than any
other single entry.
Case of Ouimet
Francis Ouimet attained tho bulk nt his
popularity Just ns McLoughlln did viz.,
by repulsing a llrltlsn Invasion where
AS A CHAMPION
IS GEEAT CIRCUS PERFORMER!
By KRYTIC
Storting at the top of the art perfected
by tho lamented Marquis of Queensbcrry,
we find Jess Wlllnrd. While we may be
skeptical ns to tho ability of Jess lu one
ring, xve submit he has proved his abil
ity at the three-ling game. As n world's
heavyweight champion, Mr. Wlllnrd Is
probably ono of tho greatest circus per
formers extant. One ennnot deny Jess
his accomplishments. It is Inspiring It
stirs a man's read blood to sit and hear
the thud of Wlllard's lingers on the type
xvrlter keys as he tells tho public how
anxious he Is to defend his title.
And Just to show tho Dear Old Public
how anxious ho Is to defend his title Jess
goes tight out and signs to meet Fied
Fulton, a young man of pencoful disposi
tion, xvho never has and probably nex'er
will Injure nny one. Wlllard may thank
his guardian angel that the citizens arose
In their might and shattered that pnrtlc
ular dream of the promoters othetuiso
ho might be called upon to answer a
charge of manslaughter during tho year
1916. Every time Fulton enters the ring

but the water bucket.
