There he felt mire he would either

or the man who should eliminate him in
the single-sculling trinls. This came
to pass, Kelly clashed in the finals
with lleresford, tho Diamond sciiIIh
victor, and won with ense. Kelly could
easily have won by n much wider mnr
gln but he saved himself for the double
nculls which he nnd Costello won n
short time later.
When Kellv arrived last week from
Europe he stated that he wanted to
give up single sculling nnd stroke an

that the Vesper Yacht Club once more-
will begin to nevciop n cnnmpionsiup

with the East Falls Y. M. A. Miller Is
not holding the Falls eleven then ply
and is drilling his men with tho miinc
spirit which the HolmeHburg and Con
fhohocken battles will be prepured for
later.
With thirty-three cnndldntes to select
from, the coach will experiment with
tho best looking material and then de
vote his time to perfecting them in Ills
6jetem of ploy. The Yellow-jackets have
forsaken Community Field ns o gi idlron
and have acquired new plaving quar
ters on BrowtKs form. Oxford pike near
Frankford High School.
A workout was held then- Suturdoy.
The new field Is In excellent bhnpe. The
candidates were put through a two-hour
drilling nnd two teams were chosen for
a scrimmage lasting more than half tin
hour. A good nttnek was shown by
both sides, eoch scoring twite.
Iao Ilrlstow. of I'ridcsburg, Is ex

for tho fnct thnt Miss Ouest was not
in the best condition and nlo is linndl

Ted Meredith nnd Don Llpplncott
won world's titles for Philadelphia In
the Olympic games In 1012 nt Stock
holm. Sweden, nnd Nate Cnrtmel, ono
of tho greatest and most consistent
sprinters that ever lived, captured the
sprints nt the game In London In 1008,
nfter hnvlng established n series of fine
records nt the I'nherslty of Pynnsyl

world's ehnmplon, because his record of
one minute fift.V-two and one-fifth sec

.unr nt the games In Antwerp.
H.ischnll Championships
In 1010. 1011 nnd 10lrt Connie Mack
won world'H btisebnll championships
with his Athletics. His victims in the
world's series were the Chlcngo Cubs
in 1010 and the New lork Giants in

It wouldn't bo surprising If Dr. .Tohn
IToisman developed n grent team before

In the basketball eoutt Philndelphin
hns had plajers of the highest caliber.
The Eastern League in its palmy dajs,
when .Insper, De N'ori, Orej stock, Cam

Cheer up with an all-day

SPURS are an "Old Kentucky Home"-"Annie
Laurie" kind of cigarette. You will be right
smoking Spurs every day in the year. They're the
most comforting, fragrant, mild cigarettes you've
met up with since Auld Lang Syne.
That's because good tobacco (from our homeland and
Turkey) is the only kind that's used, blended so you can smoke
whenever you like and enjoy it and enjoy it just as much the
next time.
There is not a thing to mar your pleasure as Spurs are
crim'ped, not pasted. Better taste, easier drawing, longer burn
ing. Only Spur has these advantages.
Yonder at your dealer's there arc twenty good Spurs, in
the smart brown-and-silver package, waiting to
refresh and delight that fed-up taste of yours.

BUCKNELL CONFIDENT,
OF DEFEA TING PENM
Veteran Aggregation, Virtually the Same Team That
Beat Quakers Last Year, Will Be Down for
Game Here on Saturday Afternoon
r,
CONFIDENCE and
optimism 1
count for anything In
football.
Bucknell should easily defent I'enn on
Saturday afternoon on Franklin Field
In the annual game between the two
Institutions. The reason for most of
the optimism is well founded for Buck
nell has a veteran aggregation this jear
and one that should givi; the Red and
Blue a fight long to be remembered.
Last year's team from Lewlsburg did
just that and with most of thnt famous
team on this year's eleven the same
thing can be looked for. But enough
of that. Read the following thnt was
sent to Dr. Georgo Orton, the I'enn
publicity mnn, who requested some in
formation on the team that I'rnn must
meet Saturday afternoon.
"When Bucknell faces the I'nlver
slty of Pennsylvania on the gridiron
next Saturday, the Quakers will face
eleven tough nronosltions. The eleven
urange nnd Illue warriors will nil nave
had excellent experience with an odd
nine or ten from last year's first string
men nnd one or two with enviable prep
school reputations. They nro all men
built from the ground and the chin tip.
every ono as strong ns oxen nnd all
know how to play football.
"Coach Peter Reynolds tutored them
from the fundamentals to the techni
calities in daily scrimmages during the
past week. Shako-ups ure incessant
and it may be depended upon thnt the
men who fill tho berths have earned
them. Football, speed, endurance and
gray matter are the requirements bv
which Coach Reynolds has chosen his
first, probable eleven.
This Is the way it looks now: Vic
Blhl will pivot the team ns last vear
at center with Lewey Morrett and Fred
Lauster plaving nt his Hanks. John
Dooley and Frank Homan will do their
best nt tackle while Pat McDcrmott
nnd Ilahn will see that no great gains
nre made around the ends AVith Tom
Mangnn, Joe Kostos. Gadnieo and
Bowser carrying the pigskin, a power
ful attack has been developed. Man
gnn will call the signals nnd try to pick
Penn's weak spots. -
"Any one or the brfeks might he
called upon to do the punting for spirals
averaging fifty yards leave their toes

while from tackle to tackle the men tip
the beam at an odd 180 pounds. Mc
Dcrmott nnd Ilahn nre no slouches for
end men, as each man weighs In the
neighborhood oi 1US pounds ' lint s the
dope, but 'you never can tell ' "
While the abovp has not struck nny
terror into the Red nnd Blue cohorts,
they arc going to put in the hardest week
