A close analysis of ench team's play will i reveal tne cause, uut n peep oenina i curtains will solve the question without !Beulty. Joe Bniiey, tno nme manager the Greys, &eneve in nnu insists upon players always being in the best pos- JtfWe condition. In Order lO lua pwjcia in iwiuiio lor Dm beginning ot tho season nalley has his ,mh report earlier than any other club -.rarer In the league, nnd he nlso seci u, it that during the summer months they wavers are doing something to keep them ntetres n kuw !""- . For this reason, If for no other, the $nja will again enter tho nice for the Jtco pennants primo lavomcs. manager ifclley believes that he hat fully ns good la chance to win again this year as he had JtSwt, although he will not boldly assert that Ms team will win either one or both let the flags this season. Wnt Em Both ,n am going to try to win the pennant jfWth seasons," said Manager Bailey. "I kaew that It wouia do somewnnt oetier as I,-financial preposition It different teams no the first and. second season pennants aftd then played a series for the champion dip. Nevertheless, you win see us in sere fighting our best both seasons, and am not going to allow ths men to let up It moment" r On the subject of the new rule which pro- ytdes that the schedule be divided In two (slaving seasons, Manager Bailey remarked: I 1 WlnK mai ima uopunuro irum mu uiu ne-ieason game nos put DosKetDaii on a firmer basis than It has ever been In JV1 rhliaaeipnia, ana we una ny no means It, an unsuccessful season in ivio-io. hub is ' perfectly natural, because It one team gets If. a.

On grthf other hand, no matter what the result ,.M tno nrsv season mujr u, mo uucrcsi Is the second half will be just as great as Cjt was In tho first. , "Another new rulo we are going to try ' Is the double-referee system, we Intend Ito try this cut for two woeks, no matter , whether It proves to be good or bad. It IV we are to try It fit all we havo to try It that long In order to glvo It a fair test. Per sonally, I am not sure that It will work out all right, becauso the referee-ln-chlef will at times be too far away from the scrim mage to get all ot the details ot play, How ever, we will see how It goes." Already at Work The GreyBtock team has already been at work in the cage at Cooper Battalion Ilall since tho second week in September. Manager Bailey announces that every man Is now In perfect physical trim and that when the season starts next week ho ex pects every member of tho club to play mldseason basketball. Tho men practice three tlmo a week. Those who havo boon "signed and have been working at Grey- Erf stock are Ttay Cross, Jack Lawrence, Lou n.1 Ritvn-TTtnn imt.

Budd team ot the Industrial League last year and until recently owned by Greystock, Is now with TCtlkcs'Barre. He was origi nally released to De Nerl. MIKE WILSON HAS TAKKN advantage of the new municipal golf course at Cobb's Creek Park. It h i.n wieMinv ih niblick and the driver all summer and has developed Into quite a good performer on the links. "I was surprised to sea how much golf Improved a man's eye." said Manager Bailey while talking on this sub JecL "I didn't realise before why baseball players went In so extensively for golf. But I seo It now. Mike Is In better shape and his eye Is better than It has been In, yenrs. ALT.in McAYII.I.IAMH HAS been keeping In training by playing baseball all summer. He played with the championship Purchas ing Department team of the Pennsylvania Railroad against ths Altoona Car Shops nine at Altoona recently. HAY cnnSR HAS III.KN keeping In fine trim by swimming at Cape May and nlso doing some Indoor aquatic work nt the West Branch of tho Y. M. C. A. Although he weighs IDS pounds. Cross Is faster than over and Is duo to have the best season of his basketball career. Jimmy Sterrett was very anxious for Cross to develop him self Into a sprinting swimmer, but nay mond decided that It would take up too much of his tlmo from tho cage and declined. BOOAUMAN DID NOT do much nthletlo work during the summer, but he has made up for lost time slnco he returned from traveling In tho West Sugarman works out every dny, either In the Greystock capo or with some of the athletes at Medlco-Chl, where he Is a student. JACK liAWnr.NQE, upon the advice ot Manager Bailey, has Mono very little nth lctlc work slnco the close of the bnsketball Benson last March. He had a very badly sprained ankle. The rest has put him In perfect trim again. JOi: FOOAKTY, besides practicing with tho Greys, works In the gymnasium at the Central Branch of the Y. M. C. A. He has scarcely any fat on him at present and will be In good condition for the oponlng of the season. AN INNOVATION at Cooper Hall by Joe Bailey Is the new clock which will show the spectators just how much time has elapsed. It would be a great thing If all of tho other clubs were to Install one of these clocks, because there Is nothing that Is more vital to the Interested spectator than tho knowledge of how much tlmo Is left to play. The new clock nt Greystock can bo seen from any part of the hall. HOnEItT MeOOWAN, FORMF.I.I.Y of the Greystock Reserves, is taking a course In aviation at the school In Ksslngton under the tutelage of Walter Johnson. niLL iikiikon, WHO WAS with Grey stock a whllo last season when AUIe Sic Williams was out, has not reported to Grey stock. It Is not likely that his services will be required this season by the downtowners.

STATE VICTORY PROVED MAKING OF PENN ELEVEN If Team Shows Same Spirit Against Pitt, Worst Will Be Draw, Says Mathews By NEIL M. MATHEWS Captain of Tenn Football Team. Tcnn nt last got a break, but wo surely deserved It Slnco I have been playing football at Penn tho team always hns had the fight and kept right on hustling desplto tho fact that everything was breaking against us and conditions were not very good, but until Saturday we did not com bine the fighting spirit with the proper kind ot football. I can truthful y Bay that saturaays game was tho first In three years whero Penn played team football from start to finish, and It resulted In a victory over the best team I ever have played against. Wo won on our own strength and not be cause of tho weakness or pcor form shown by our opponents, nnd I think the victory wilt prove tho making of the team. Unfortunately, the gamo with Pitt is scheduled for the coming Saturday, which docs not glvo us much time to como back. I feel suro that we will give n good account ot ourselves, but will not make any predic tions on the outcome If we were scheduled to meet Pitt a week from Saturday I feel sure that wo would win with a little to spare, but playing Warner's team so soon after the strenuous battle with State will make It much harder for us. If the boys Bhow tho same spirit against Pitt that they did against State tho worst wo can get Is a draw, providing there are no lucky breaks for either team. The work of the team on Saturday really surprised Coach Folwell, as he had grave doubts about tho ability of the newly constructed backfleld to get working properly with less than a weok of practice together, and with a green man In the line, but everybody came through In splendid shape. Folwell's ability to build up a system of team play and to make the most ot the natural ability of each Individual was responsible for tho victory. The new coach U.

Main lHOl WRl't'jmhi really has not hnd much time to put his system into working order, as It usually takes at least a year before a new In structor has the men playing the style of football he favors, particularly after a team has been In the rut for several years. Folwell has built better team work in the few weeks he has handled tho team than we have had In years, nnd from now on tlicro should be a general Improvement. The brilliant work of Howard Berry was particularly pleasing to mo. I hao con tended all along that Berry Is a great football player, nnil that It ho had been handled properly would have been a great help to ua last season, and I was determined that he should hnvo every chance to make good desplto the unfavorable things that were said against him. Berry came through with flying colors, and I think his confidence will return. The greatest drawback In Ilcrry'H work Inst year was his luck ot confidence. When a great natural football plaer loses con fidence he Is worse off than the mediocre player, because ho worries more and goes to pieces quicker. That field goal made a now man of nerry. Instead ot being uncertain nnd fearing that he would do the wrong thing. Berry Imme diately became confident and we could no tlco tho difference In his spirit. I think that before the season closes Berry will open tho eyes ot the football critics ot the EaBt CimiSTIANIA. Oct 35.
