Piinn has been playing n mighty tough schedule, hut lini received little credit
because Yale, Harvard and Princeton are not among thn teams listed. When
Penn win tho weak opposition Is responslbto. but when It loses the defeat Is due
ta tho Inferior work of the Urd and Illuo. At lonst, that Is tho way the critics
. have doped it out.
x Few Chances for Team to Let Up
IAflT season Penn's schedule was made so that thorn win only one "soft spot"
J after tho first two weeks of tljo season, and both West Virginia and Kranklln
mt Marshall were too strpng on paper for so early In tho ncnion West Virginia
gave Penn an awful battle In tho opening contest of thn season, but Franklin nnd
Marshall was bolow Its usual standard and tho lted and Illuo won handily, flwarth
tnorn was In oplendld shapa early In tho season nnd follow cil with an unoxpected
but deserved triumph over Pnlwell's tenm. Hta-llnu with tho Bwarthmore gamo
It woji necesaary for Kolwell to keep his mon on edgo for tho rest of tho neiiaon,
tarring a slight reiplto that was obtained becauso nf tho unexpected weakness
of Lafayette. Htnto came to Franklin Hold with a team that waa touted as tho
, , strongest turned out by that institution In years, but Pcnn pulled u groat surprlsa
by trouncing Ifarlow'o eleven. Aftor thnt cume tho dlnnntrous linttlo with Pitt,
followed by tho vlcto'ry over Lafnyotto. Thon caino Dartmouth, Mlc'ilgan, Wost
' f" Virginia Wcsleynn and Cornell, ciimplctlnj; nno of tho hardest schmlulcM cvor
attempted by tho lted and Illuo, In view of tho fact that It was necessary to
, 'keep the team on edge no long, It Is remarkublo that Pcnn won so mnny games,
particularly after tho disastrous start.
Wcat Virginia and State May Be Dropped
WEST VinOINIA and Htato CoIIcro, tho latter an ancient foa of tho nod and
Dluo, are to bo droppod, according to tlio Insldu dope. Tho nacaaslty of opening
the ooason with an cosier team Is given ns tho reason for dropping West Virginia,
thiro bolnif no plnco on tho November nahedulo, according to presont plans for
two yoars West Virginia has plnyod Ponn remarkably closo gumoi, und took no
much out of tho lted and Blue that It wns novcrnl days before tho men recovered
from tho offooto of tho bnttlo, 'W.nilMMcCrtimb.n member of tho Htato Hoard of
Education of Maryland, otntcd his caso before Chalrmun Wharton Slnkler, of tho
loottsoli commltteo, yostorday In hopes of gottlng u Inter dale on tho Ponn schedule,
but the fact that ho left for Prlnreton shortly after tho conferanco Indicates tlmt
"West Virginia was turned down. Htnto Is to bo dropped bocauso of Incidents can
i Heotcd with the protesting Hilly Nclll, the veteran I'mm guard, by Couclf Hurlnw,
9t the up-Stato Institution. Tho Penn committee did not resent thn protesting of
i Kelt), as t contonds that It always Is anxious to mako sure thnt the Hed and Hluo
Athletes are In good standing, but did not lllco tho tnnnnor In v lilcli tho protcit wns
refftatered. As both Htato and Ponn receive appropriations from tho Stnto of Ponn
Wlvanla, and havo been ro cloie In tho past. It Is said that polltlcul Inlluonco will
be brought to bear In hopes of straightening out tho JUIlculty. At present, huw-
; evert there seems to bo llttla chnnco for n Htnto-Pciin gnmo next full.
Speculation on Newcomers on Schedule
WHAT now teams wll be on Penn'o ocheduloT Thli question Is crontlng un
usuarintorost am6ng the student body nnd gridiron enthusiasts, but Is ono
that probably will not be answered for novcrnl weeks.
It Is reasonably certain that ono of the towns will bo n- college noted for its
t- consistently strong clcvons, whllo tho other probably will bo listed as an easy gamo.
Bovorat teams havo been mentioned ns a Navembor opponent for tho lied nnd Illuo,
v(th Lafayette moved up to lata In October, but not a slnglo mombor of the
committee will oven givo a hint as to tho nowcomurj. It is certain that Cornell,
Michigan, Dartmouth, Swarthmoro, Iafayctto nnd lltt will bo on tho schedule
Tho arrangoment of tho rest of tho nehedulo Is problematical. Ah Pcnn Intends
to play two midweek games this season, and will continue to play a minor team
on Baturday previous to Thanksgiving Day, It Is possible, that there will bo more
thon two now teams added to .the list,
The Pitt Game la an A nnual A ffalr
PITT mado n great hit with local football cnthuslastn In 1915, when Wnrncr'n
1- powerful eleven defeated tho ltcd and Blue, nnd It was feared that tho chain-'
'TStlnna nf IIia T"-naf iwnttlil ,n It. ..., lm
-w-fc hmmi itu. ww w, h,iu A win, nbiituuiu llUAh lull, IlUb icv:uilb UUVOHip-
menu mako it seem certain that tho western ronpsylvnnlanB will appear on Frank-
, un IrtolU next yoar. Thero nro somu peoplo connected with nthlotlcs nt Penn who
appear to favor dropping Pitt, but acting upon tho rulvlca of Conch Kolwull,
and using their own good Judgment, the members of tho football commltteo hava
Virtually decided everything but the dnto concerning tho Ponn-PItt game for 1917.
Tho Red und Illuo olovon uus accorded wonderful treatment on itti visit to Pitts
burgh this fall (at least In every way but on tho football Mold), nnd Coach l'olwoll
' is extremely nnxious to continue tho friendly relations. If you bellovo in hunches,
just play ono strong that "Fighting liob" bus an idea that he Is going to hand
Pitt an unpleasant eurpriso.
Pcnn Needs
rpiIB past soaaon -was tho greatest In tho history of tlio grldlrori gnmo ;tt I'onn
J-from o financial standpoint, but the ltcd and Illuo nthletlo nssoclntton Is Htlll
far In the rear ns a result of tho lean years preceding tho t'olvvoll regime. This
condition maltca It certain that tho Urnwlng power of tcami applying for u plnco
on tho schedule will bo given great consideration. AVest Point nnd Annapolis nro
amonif tho teams nuking for a game; but Untflo Snm's teams nro not llkoly to lio
considered, as a gamo with cither Is a, dcud loss. Thoy nro not permitted to piny
ywy from homo, and do not charge admission at home. Thoroforo, tenms on
-th Army nnd Navy schedules accept EomtH on a guarantee which Is not largo
ipough to cover tho expenses of a largo collego team for tho week.
Can It Be Syr acusc or Yale?
fnilEJin has been qulto a lot of secrecy connected with tho arrangement of a blir
gamo to tako the placo of tho Loiayotle contest, with the, latter moved to
State's October date. Many are Inclined to bolleve that thero Is u chance for Perm
to meet Yale. It Is known that negotiations hava boon carried on between promi
nent members of tho faculty of tho twounlvcraltles, but aa yet tlio football
authorities havo not como together. Others contend that It has been decided to
Kivo JIM Ilollenback'a fiyruuuao team u placo on tho uchtidule. During the visit
of the Penn team to AY'hltemarsh, Hollcnback was u dally visitor, helping Kohvcll
wbnver possible, and "Bhj will" und "abe" AVIilto, his captain, who also was
present, admitted that 'tho Salt City Institution was clamoring for a gamo with
the lted and niuo.
One Argument Against Yale Game
SYRACUSE: appears to bo tho logical cholcq for tho open date In November.
Bvery one is pulling for a Fenn-Yalo game, but as It is certain that tho openinir
-' Jbttls between these teams wilt take placo
. ggreement. 1917 appears to ba a poor year for tho renewal of relutlons, I'enn Is
aeh4ule4 to play tho Michigan, nnd Dartmouth games away from home next fall.
. and would hardly consider another biK gamo away from home, even though it
offered a chance for the renewal of relations with Vale. Penn Is anxious
for the game with tho Ells, but wllf not mako neediest! concessions when everything
'would bo more congenial If It was put off auqthir year.
Schedule Will Be Satisfactory
RKOAItDI-iEfatf of which team happens to bo chosen for tho extra big battle,
layers of tho great fall college gamo In this city can rest assured that they
111 bs favored with a high-class schedule, and unless wo miss our guess, will sea
,th9 most powerful I'enn team since 1804, And It Js by no means, certain that
ygJ?"iFBlwJr' 1917 team will not bo even stronger than that famous eleven. It is

only thlrt) -eight goals In thirty-two games.
This veteran of tho Kusteru League und
of the old National League deserves a great
desl of credit for the manner In which he
has got himself In playing condition. Ho
has worked, and still Is working. In tho

he hs come back to an unbelievable extent

Final Round Rally Enables Gothamite to Return!
Close Victor Over Westerner Despite Handi

Dy LOU13 II. JAFPE
AOaitKflStVRNnSH on the part of Johnny
XX Dundee enabled the little Italian from
New York to flnlah a closo victor In his
match with Johnny Tillman at tho Olympla
Club last night. Mattllng against great
oddt, tho lad whom Champion yred Welsh
absolutely refuses to meet came within an
ace of being defeated, and It was only" his
great finish that decided the contest In his
favor by a very narrow margin.
Handicapped by almoit ten pounds In
weight, several Inches In reach and height,
Dundee forced the milling almost from bell
to bell Had It not been for the Jumping
Jack's nggresslvo tactics tho bout probably
would haye resulted In n. listless affair. As
It was thr spectators, many of whom be
lieved Tillman was deserving of a lctory,
kept up an Incessant uproar. They not
only cheered and applauded while the boys
were In action, but also showed their ap
prcclatton during tho mlnuto Intermissions.
Tillman Floored
Tillman apparently was the favorite with
a majority of tho audience The Minne
apolis boxer hnd mads a great impression
with I'hlladclphlans because of his stnnd
hero recently against Bonny Leonard They
wero out to see the 'Westerner take Mr
Dundee Into camp Had Tlllmnn used more
aggressiveness Instead of waiting for Dun
dee to lead the bigger boxer probably would
have won with plenty to spare.

At tho outset Dundee looked like an
av winner. With tlio ooenlna- bell both
easy
sleniKMl to the center of the ring, feinting
nnd waiting for the other to lend Then
they fell Into n clinch and whllo the referee
tried to pry thorn apart Dundee switched
an overhand right wallop lo Tillman's Jaw
Tlllmnn was In an awkward position, locked
In a half clinch with Dundeo, and the force
of the punch dropped the Minneapolis boxer
with tho Qothnmlle on lop Both were up
In a Jiffy and mlcd things up In flno
fashion for several Lrconda.
Ileglnnlng with the second round, which
ended oven, Tillman stood away back with
his long left eTtcnded to Its full rcsch
This made It difficult for Dundee to get
close to hh opponent, and usually Tillman
met his man with stiff left-handers as tho
latter camo tearing In At different In
tervals both, were guilty of holding All
In all, however, tho bout was Interesting,
Inasmuch ns tho finish found tho spectators
In a dlfferenco of opinion ns to tho winner.
Thla Is what makes boxing so interesting
for followers of the game
Surprise for Dundee
Tillman got nrf Into tho lead In tho third
round nnd surprised every ono by meeting
Dundee with stiff lefts and hard rights tn
tho head nnd body A number of Tillman's
punches missed their innrk, terrific upper
cuts especially going for naught when
Dundee pulled hack or neatly sidestepped
Tho fourth and fifth rounds vvera about

final frame entitled him to tho spollR
Dundee was forrcd to do most of his best
work at close quarters. His famous aerial
Attack vvas stopped frequently, as Tlll
mn'.i long reach made tho New Yorkor's
Jabs and hooks fall short However, by
keeping on top of Tillman almost continu

Minneapolis boxer's guard, nnd thero ho

Tillman's showing, despite hU lack of ag
