Maurlco Rlsley, of tlio homo club, win
the winner of tho qunllfylnB round of
the f.ll tournament of Atlantic City, which
began here todny, made the eighteen holes
There were 106 players who left the first
tec and most of these turned In their scores
It was a. cold, raw day, and a bltlnff wind
from tho sea made thlti&s uncomfortable, for
tho players The wind Is a bin hazard here
and "bile the local players ro able to
pauire it to a nicety, It bothers the vlHltors,
oh It blow's from all quarters and has a
wide sweep ocr tho course with nothing
to stop It
As usual there is a 1Ir field of I'hlla
delphlans In It, but nono of them shows
well
Thcro will be five slxteens qualify nnd
as the Philadelphia qualifiers outnumber
the other out of town men there Is a llkcll
hood that the Quaker City plajers will
brlns home lots of bacon.
Illslev who Is tho local champion and
who has won one of tho Atlantic City
tournaments, had a fine first nine with the
exception or seventh
He stjniled himself with n 3 on tho sec
ond shot and took 3 putts on the preen
On the short sixteenth his tee shot landed
alonB the road, and It was necessary to
make a dozen of them before ho could
play his second shot.
Three putts on one short hole cave him
l fl e, otherwise ho had a good card and
ihould easily hae had a total of 74.

HIST! DR. WHARTON
AT LAST REPORTS
Long-Looked-For Line Coach
Appears on 'Franklin Field
and Assists Fohvell
THREE SHIFTS IN LINE-UP
Doctor 'Wharton was on Franklin Field
this afternoon For the first time this
season the former head lino coach of the
I'enn football team made his appearance
on the historic Quaker gridiron While he
did not get into action, he did not fall to
detect many flaws in tho playing of the
Penn linemen, hut stated that ho would not
attempt to chango the style of play until
after tho Pitt game.
Ono of tho moht apparent defects In the
Penn line play was that tho men did not
face the center A natural lineman, accord
ing to Coach Wharton, will face the center,
but nono of tho first line of defense on tho
Quaker squad did this. Coach Wharton In
tends to bo on the field again tomorrow
to do his share In perfecting the line play,
but expects to wait until Monday before
taking an actlte part In the line coaching,
llert Hell probably will not get Into tho
Pitt game. Trainer Law son Kobertson said
today that the Penn quarterback was In no
condition to get Into the line-up, and ns
Robertson's word on the condition of the
men Is final, this most likely means than
Hell will be on the bench. However,
Trainer lfobertson tald that Hell would be
examined by Doctor Cnrnett tonight If
the phjsiclati belleted Hell In condition to
start, he would let Hert direct the team.
Folwell announced a few changes In the
team nnd these probably will take effect
against Pitt Joe Van Olnkle will replace
Well nt end, Cook will bo wen at guard In
place of Jerauld and Joe Strauss will get the
call oter Dill Qulgiey it half Hobey
Light was In uniform and took part in his
first practice since tho Huckncll game A
special guard had been made for tho In

WEST PHILADELPHIA TO HAVE CLUB
IN EASTERN BASKETBALL LEAGUE,
WITH FINEST HALL IN THE CIRCUIT
Entire Deal Depends Upon Whether Dr. Charles
Empey Can Purchase or Rent Cage and Stands
of Greystock Looks Like Good Field
THi: prospects for big league basketball
In West Philadelphia arc exceedingly
bright nnd If everything runs smoothly be
tween now and the meeting of the Kastern
Ilasketbalt Leigue olllclals nt tho Ulngham
this eenlng ou will rend In tomorrow
morning's papers that the franchise for
merly held by Cireystock will remain In
this city, tho new club to be called West
Philadelphia, with tho finest ha'l In tho
Eastern League circuit, balng a seating
cipaclty of moro than Bono persons nnd
the accompanying surroundings of the finest
A first-class team across the Schuylkill
has been suggested many times, hut some
rbstacle has always blocked the enterprise
Tho new club Is being backed by Pr Charles
r.mpey, former part owner of tho Camden
franchise.
President Scheffcr also received an offer
from another promoter yesterday who Is
anxious to place n team here, so It Is a
certainty tho franchise will remain In this
city
CaRc and Scats Needed
When Interviewed on the subject Doctot
Fmpey said, "I hope to be able to attend
the meeting tomorrow night and accept the
franchise"
"It has been said that you will place your
tenm In tho First Regiment Armory, Broad
and Callow hill streets. Is this true?"
"Positively no. I have engaged quarters
In West Philadelphia, In a hall accommo
dating moro than 6000 spectators. The
only hitch In accepting the franchise at
this very moment Is tho fact that I have
not as yet secured a cage and seats, nnd
hope to hear today from Joseph L. Bailey
or other Greystock olllclals In regard to
buying or leasing their cage and stands.
I nm not Jumping Into tho basketball game
blindly. I have profited by past experience
and have been working on tho present plans
for some time." Doctor Empey Is not alono
In his new venture.
At Tuesday's meeting Jack Gardner and
Frank Taylor wcro offered the acant berth,
but were unable to obtain suitable playing
quarters. They Inspected several sites In
Chester yesterday, but all proed Inade
quate. The armory Is the only available
place, but the stands nnd cage must bo
removed from the premises nfter each
game, and this would be too expensive.
They nro looking over a place In the city
and If they land the samo will also attend
tomorrow's meeting.

Powers Malone Is Jumping center for

at Carbondalo along with Barney Sedrnn,
of Jasper Johnnie Hecktnan has Joined

Mnnager Mjers to play with Do Nerl
(Beckman will sign with nnvbody) Blg
gano and Wright have hooked up with
Wllkes-Uarro and Garry Schmelk has cast
his lot with Pittston From what can bo
learned Jack Lawrence, of tho Greys, Is
nlso nt Hnzleton and not at Wllkes-Uarre,
as first reported.
Jersey City Poor Proposition
Had Jersey City been admitted to the
Hastern League It would have been a dis
astrous move on the part of the local
magnates. Not that tho club would have
placed an Inferior combination In tho field,
but It would have caused a break In a
compact circuit and this has been tho
success of the HaBtcrn League.
An out-of-town entry meant n decided
loss to Jasper, De Nerl and Camden, for
Jersey City would carry no following with
them, while all tho above, except De Nerl,
bring several hundred to their games away
Jersey City was last season managed by
Frank Morgenwcck, but he Is out of tho
game this season, nfter being actively Iden
tified with tho sport for over twenty straight
years. According to his brother, Billy,
manager of tho old Camden Klectrlcs, his
health Is none too good. He has charge of
tho freight yards nt Flushing. L I., and
can hardly spare any time owing to the big
Increase In shipping
This Is a busy evening for the minor
basketball leagues and tho American Broth
erhood and Industrial all have meetings
scheduled. The first two expect to adopt
the schedule for the season, while tho In
dustrials hope to name their circuit.
