(Western Pennsylvaniana Clamored for Game
With Cornell Last Year, But Do Not Seem
Anxious for Clash With Brunonians
JT WAS just .t this time a rear ago that th nthlotla authorities at the Unlver
jj slty of, Pittsburgh were trying to arrange a post-scnson gamo with Cornell, It
. Mdng- considered a foregone conclusion that both teams would complete tliolr
schedules without losing a cam. The Cornell authorities could not soe this
(reposition and the championship of the East was not decided, though the ma
OTlty of the critics awarded It to the Itbacans because of the victory over Hnr
Yard. Pitt u rery much peered at Cornell' refusal to play and claimed the
championship by default. Now conditions appear to be reversed and Pitt has
gbanged Its mind about post-season football games.
A few days art) the Brown University authorities sot In touoh with an alum
Ba In Pittsburgh to see whether it would be posslblo to arrange a post-season
guroo with Pitt in case both teams completed their schedules without losing a
gamo. This alumnus learned that Pitt had decided that thofo would bo no more
football niter Thanksgiving Day, All of which goes to show that one yoor makes
quite a difference hi college football. Last season Pitt was fighting for recog
nition. This season Pitt has been called the great oat team In tho land by the
majority of critics who have seen Warner's team In action. Thoreforo Pitt feels
that it has gained the recognition and that It would bo foolish to risk lis roputtv
tl'on in a post-season game with Brown, dasptto tho fact Dint it would deoldo the
jaJiampIonshtp of the East providing Brown is not beaten.
Philadelphia Should Get Game
IV IT becomes apparent that neither team Is likely to loso a gotno thla Reason,
, it la said that another attempt will be mnda to bring tho two teams togothor.
Brown, has a harder schodule than Pitt nfter today, but if the Brunonians can got
away with Harvard n other toam is likely to stop them. If It is poBSlbla to nr
ran go a game betwoen these two teams thoro would bo no batter ptaoo to stago
It than Franklin Held, and it Is likely that Pitt would Insist that tho gamo be
played hero In preference to Now York. If Philadelphia got this gamo It would
more than make up for tho loss of the Army-Navy gamo. It bohooves cortaln
persons In Philadelphia who were Instrumental In bringing the Army and Navy
gamo here to get busy and try to Induce Pitt and Brown to meot on Franklin
yield. While Pitt turned down tho proposition by tho Brown alumnus, It is bo
iteYed that tho western Pennsylvaniana can bo Induced to meet tho powerful
iProvldonco eleven. a
Ten Tigers Will Graduate
TEJN of the eleven regulars representing Princeton against Talo today nro
seniors, whloh means that "Speedy Rush must develop a now team noxt
season, Cosplte Princeton's reverses in tho big games, Rush has proved that ho
Is a first-class coach when glvon seasoned matertnl, but ho will faco a tromondous
tasls In 1917. If Princeton had an aggregation of stars on Its frcihman team this
season Rush's task would be eaalor, but with a first-year eleven that has boon
outclassed by the Yolo froshles and other teams the outlook lo anything but bright
for tho Tigers. The loio season can hardly bo considered a success, donplto tho
brilliant start. The fnlluio of Rush to develop an offonso prevented tltfe 'rigors
from winning from Harvard and has held tho Orange and Black baolV for two
yearn. It Is odd that Rush should fail to dovelop an offense at Princeton when it
la consldorod that he turned out somo of tho groatest offonslvo backs In tho coun
try, Including Charley Barrett, of Cornell, while coaching a school team In Clovo
land. r
Local Man for Commission Head?
ONE somotimes has to go a long wny from home to got news. James O'Pholan,
-'sports editor of the News-Telegram, Calgary, Canada, who Is Ban Johnson's
representative in western Canada, says in dlsausslng tho proposed change In the
National Commission:
"It was oponly stated during tho world's serios that tho National' Commission
' wouia undergo a thorough renovation before tho 1917 basoball Reason rolls around.
One man declares that Garry Hormann would bo deposod and that Francis C.
Jtlchter, editor of the Philadelphia Sporting Life, will succeed him as chairman of
fXxaX body. However, Mr. Rlchter may not bo ablo to accept that position even If
ho Is offered it, as ho has been ill for several weoks.
''But It is to bo hoped that Mr. Rlohter will be made tho third member of the
commission and'head of same, as ho Is the best Informed basoball man In tho world
today. Not only that, but he loves tho gamo with a. revoronco known to few raon,
and in addition knows all the anglon of tho players nnd magnates' sides of tho
caso. Mr. Rlchter is tho ideal man for this position, and the Nows-Tolegram hopes
that he will bo the man solocted.
. "Other men mentioned for the position oro Edward Barrow, president of tho
International League, and Judge Landls, who failed to give a decision on that
famous Federal Injunction caso, and thcicby, perhaps, saved tho fabric of organ
bed basoball. The two latter men uro capable of nillng tho position, but Mr.
ftlchter stands head and shouldors over either and would be a better man for tho
Important post."
Cubs After
ABOUT a week beforo tho world's nodes the Evening IwEDann printed an exclu
Xi slvo story that Fred Mitchell, coach of tho Boston Braves' pitching staff,
would bo tho noxt manager of the Chicago Cubi. A denial was made by ovory
paper In Chicago and tho majority of othor scribes ridiculed tho story. Since that
time almost every veteran out of a Job has been nppolntcd manager of tho Cubs,
according to rumor, Frank 6hanco being" Includod In tho list Yesterday Charley
Weegbman offered 10,000 to tho Boston club for Mitchell's release, but still he
refuses to admit that "Mitch" is wanted to pilot tho club. Whether "Wcoghman
fcnowa It or simply does not caro to admit It wo do not know, but Mitchell was
offered tha position by stockholders, who have been going over Weeghman'a hoad
'for soma tlmo, and It is Safe to predict that ho will bo piloting tho Chicago team
Tlien the season opens.
Did Harvard Plan to Eliminate Pollard?
TF B aro to bellovo a prominent Harvard alumnus, tho Crimson planned to
put Pollard, Brown's sensational colorod halfback, out of tho gamo. This
Jumnus was talking freely in a Chestnut street trolley car last night, and de
clared that ho had a straight tip that a substitute back would muul Pollard more
than tho law allows tho nrst tlroe the Brown baok got past tho scrimmage line.
According- to tho dope, the Crimson figured that It would bo worth tho dlsqualln-
. cation of a playor and a penalty of half tho distance to tho goal lino to have tho
colored marvel eliminated. Let us hope that there is no truth to this statement,
s wo would hate to think that college football had reached suoh a stnge.
SEVERAL prominent Pennsylvaniana who witnessed yesterday's gamo between
Ponn Charter and Episcopal Academy Insist that tho Red and BJuo must have
Bitlay and Earp, tho star back of each team. They aro wonderful collegiate foot
ball prospects. Both youngsters weigh close to 170 pounds. They aro young, fast
and know a lot of the finer points of the game. They need only one season on a
freshman team to be finished varsity backs. Peon Charter won because Sltley
had a stronger team before him, but Earp played Just as brilliantly, They look
like tho beat pair of scholastic backs produced since Fritz, of Central High, and
' Lents, of Central Manual, were at their best,
t . ...
TIIH veteran Jo Fogarty had a field night in the Oreystock-Readlng game.
Fogarty tallied four field goals, had two assists and threw fifteen foul goals out of
Rineteen tries, Qroystock played llko a different team with Alle MoWilllams
back at guard, but tho hard luck continued to follow tho champions, as Lew
4 Suganxwn was badly, trurt.
t
fyfRS- BCHUXWJB P. BRITTON, owner of the St, Louis Cardinals, announces
AfX yesterday that she had accepted tho resignation of her husband as president
tit, tho club. On top of this came another announcement that she had entered suit
for fltvore. It Is believed that tho Cardinals will bo sold within a few weeks, and
It would not be surprising If Harry Sinclair, former backer of tho Federal League,
.'ot thu frauchUa.

PBJZB FIGHTERS occasionally find tha$ an intended "soft-picking" fight
werisa Hko a boomerang. This occurred last night, when K. O, Loughlln, of
South Bethlehem, knocked out Billy Moore In tho fourth round of their scheduled
Ground bout at tho Lincoln A C. Mporo went into the ring firmly entrenched
la th belief that ho was going to get soma easy money. He got his money, with
iAFATBTTB continued its poor work yesterday, losing- to State by tha ecora
i of 40 to0. As tho season draws to a close it looks very much as If there is
ueraottOny to Crowejl's contention that the material is poor. As long ua Weldon

CLOUDS OF PUR
WHEN NEWSPAPER GOLF TITLE
IS SETTLED THANKSGIVING DAY
By SANDY
HAND-PICKCD delegates from the first
thing In the morning since 183S and
the last thing at night since 1014 will clash
In a bitter battle on the links Thanksgiving
Day, when a golf team representing tho
Punuo Lkdoeb and one from tho EvnmKo
Ledger will meet tor the newspaper title
of Philadelphia. Tho title will rest on the
brow, figuratively speaking, ot the winning
team for lack of any other disputants.
Eight representatives of the two great
dallies will go to grips, the match being
decided ovor the elghteen-hole private links
of Cyrus II. K. Curtis, In Wyncoto, Pa.
Nothing ,to It
Tho match Is expected to develop Into
nothing moro than a runaway practice
match for the team of O, O. D. P., partic
ularly If the n. L. team lives up to the
natural golf ability Its Individuals claim.
Tha only hitch so far has been In the
pairing As. each member of the" P, L.
team was named today, there was a chorus
of shouts from tha V.. L. delegates "Let
mo at hlml" '1 want to play him I" and
so forth.
Tho match will bo tho first ever played
In local golf between teams ot rival news
papers. The Pudlio ledger, team, tne
losers, of course, will be hosts at a din
ner to tho Eveniko Ledoeh as soon as
the formal result of the match has been
decided, this being one of the perfunctory
conditions agreed upon,
Tho E. U llne-up Is Tom Daly, Stenton

A. II. Kane, the Indoor newspaper cham

local baseball-solfers ; M'Llss, who played a
lot of tolf one afternoon this summer, and

Tho P L. llne-up follows! Duffer Rocap,
dean of sports writers j Duffer Young.
Keith's champions Duffer Cornish, cham
pion allbllst; Duffer Evans, who has been
writing golf the first thing (n the morning
slnco 1836; Duffer Jones, who admits ho

A Intexflew
Cartoonist Sykes, who has Just been
and Murray won first and second, with Hul
thln, a Swede, third. Ilulthln broko tho
Swedish record by 6-10 of a second when
ho ran 15 2-6 IIo knocked down several
hurdles, however, and It would not bo
allowed In tho United States.
Simpson in Form
Simpson ran 14 4,-E seconds In this race
and seemed In wonderful shapo. , Tho two
hurdlers entorcd the Jump later In tho aft
ernoon npd finished In tho same order as In
tho hurdle race. Simpson first with twenty
two foct six Inches leap nnd Murray second
woll over twenty-ono foct.
Tho American relny team kept up Its
great work of last week down hero and
won all three relay races In tho last raco
each man ran 200 motors nnd tho team
did a very flno thing, which was appreciated
greatly by tho Norweclans.
Ward started tho raco and beat his man
by a good margin, but tho Norwegian In
passing tho baton tripped and foil, drop
ping It. Tho second man was left stand
ing Dowuueren, with Murray about fifty
yards ahead, not knowing of tho accldont.
Slmpson and I saw tho troublo from our
Bide of tho trnclc and ran up and stopped
Murray. Then we asked to have tho raco
rerun.
This seemed tq please tho spectators very
much and tho otnclals were greatly Im
pressed Tho final outcome was a close
finish, with our team winning by a yard.
A Iloyal Welcome
Again In Chrlstlanla wo were given a
royal welcome and a flno time. It seems
tha hardest thing wo havo to do Is to get
to bed nt tho proper tlmo and make them
understand that wo should go Instead ot
nttendlng banquets and other parties We
are slandlng up under tho strain In good
shape, however.
Again tho American Minister at Chris,
tlanla was very kind to us Mr. Schmede
man treated us finely and gave us all tho
attention he could Our prlzo collection has
Increased n great deal and now we have
dlfllculty In carrying them all.

IF TItn average golfer only coutd strike
ndroltly upon the science or nrt of good
nuttlnir he would soon bo scvon or eight
strokes better off to the round.
But putting, to the nverago golfer, In
fact to most golfers, oven abovo tho average,
Is one of tho game's leading mysteries.
Tet thero Is at least ono essential to
good putting, which, If followed, will give
the golfer a long start In tho proper di
rection. Tho Caso of Worthlngton
Here Is a caso In hand. James S Worth
Ington, now visiting this country. Is ono of
England's leading golfers, only a shado, In
fact, below Harold Hilton nnd John Ball.
Worthlneton Is a fine, strnlght player
from the tee to tho green. And onco on the
green he Is ono of tho finest putters that
over laid a forty-footer dead or holed Con
sistently from six to eight feet nwny.
A few days ago Worthlngton was playing
In a four-ball match that Included a well
known Scotch professional.
Tho Englishman, putting wonderfully
well, soon attracted tho attention of one of
tho contenders.
Tho man referred to noted nt onco that
tho English player, while putt ng, hold tho
forefinger of his right hand down tho shaft
of tho club. Ho called attention to tho fact
nt onco, as ho tried tho system out.
"That's the troublo with so many of you
golfers," remarked the professional. "Vou
sco this mnn Is a fine putter nnd your at
tention Is drawn at once to trie unimportant
part of his play. Tho way ho holds his
forefinger or his thumb has nothing nt nil
to do with tho case. If you want to find
out why he Is a fine putter watch his body
as ho putts Watch It and you will find
thnt It doesn't move tho fraction of nn Inch.
You will find on the short putts he uses
only his wrists and forearms, and that his
body Is as Immovable ns a rock. Which Is
ono of tho main reasons that ho enn putt."
A Putting Essential
Prom that point on wo watched Worth
lngton contlnuo to sink his putts nnd at tho
samo tlmo continue to hold his body ln an
easy attltudo, unrestrained, but nt the samo
time Immovable.
Thero was at no tlmo any effort or nt
tompt to hunch his Bhouldor or his right
hip Into the stroke, as so many golfers do.
And then wo recalled tho putting man
ners nnd methods of Travcrs, Travis nnd
Oulmct, three of tho, flnesf putters golf
over has known.
Their stances, their grips, their attitudes
aro not nearly nllko Travis stands with
hli feet woll separated, bonding over tho
ball much moro than Travors docs, who
stands with his heels only a few Inches
npart Oulmet hns both olbows extended,
differing from both.
But thero Is this one point In common
thoy not only keep their eyes on tho
bnll, but their bodies never quiver with the
Stroke tho wrists, tho forearms nnd tho
club do tho work.
Keeping tho Head Still
Tho easiest aid to keeping tho body still
Is to first kcop tho head still. Tho head
directs the body. It the hend mc,ves, tho
body Is sure to movo with It.
It has beon proved that a man can look
at tho hole, not tho bnll. and still putt
very well provided that In looking at tho
hole ho keeps his head fixed ln one place,
nnd, therefore, keeps his bo"dy from swaying
out of line. r,
A moving head or nr moving body. In
putting, not only takes tho club away from
tho proper line, but It brings ln an Imme-
dlato tendency to Jab or push tho putter.
You may nntlco on certain days, -when
feeling sluggish, that you putt very well.
Tho answer Is that, not being keyed up,
you are willing to let the wrists and club
do tho work. Ovcrcagorness and overanxl
cty aro almost sure to causa a shift of tho
head and body before the putter's blade
strikes the ball.
The Foundation
Jerry Travors calls this process of
keeping the head and tho body still "con
centration." Others havo called it "mental and mus.
cular control."
You can call It anything you caro to, but
tho fact remains that It Is tho foundation
of Bteady, successful putting.
The golfer who takes an easy, comfortable
stance over the ball, gots tho lino, nnd then
keeps his head still and his bodv out of h
-stroke. Is almost suro to be a flrst-class
putter. And if he makes a habit of this he
Is Just as suro to be a good putter ln a hard,
close match as at any other time.
Putting, of course, Is getting the right
line and then getting the ball as far as
tha cup. .
But the golfer who moves his head or
puts his body Into tho stroke Is pretty sure
to get away from tho right line, and also
to be far short or well over.
There can bo no chance for any delicacy
of stroke with tho head moving or tha body
shifting, and yet nlno goUers out of ten
persist In both faults and still wonder why
they are poor putters. Just ns If somo ono

LOUISIANA SHOWS WELL

Conqueror of Champion Wil
liams Twee Staggers Richmond
Foe, Who Proves Rugged
Louisiana Is still the same llttla hnir
that knocked down and came near stopping-
L.UUIUPIUU .rvm tvmams. riniS tne 1'hlm-
delphlan proved at tho Nonpareil Club last
night when ho defeated Barney Hahn; It
was no cinch for Loulsl. Hahn showed up
as a rugged little battler and It wasn't until
tho closing rounds that tho conqueror of
Williams could pile up a lead.
For three rounds Hahn fought Loulsl
almost even. He held his own and some
times outslugged Louisiana In the clinches
but from the distance there was no com.
parison betwen the lads, in the fourth
frame Hahn was staggered with, a right,
hand punch. Again ln the last period
Loulsl let fly a right-hander on Hahn's
cheek-bone and the Utter went tr his
knee. He was up, however, without taking
a count.
The bout was one of the fastest seen at
the Nonparlel this season and the club was
Jammed to Its capacity.
