SYRACUSE-PITT GRIDIRON DEADLOCK
fJUST ABOUT
YALE'S DEFEA T NOT BIG SURPRISE
A c..........
x eT1 flrst racturc ot tbe 10-, football season occurred
J '?' Saturday, when Ynlo collided with Frank Knvannugb's
""uioBion uoucgo ream anu nnisncu on me oiner cna or, a
9ft"t to 13 score. It was the first time this year that one
,rfo'f tho so-called "bis" elevens has been defeated, but wo
4rnnnot say the outcome was a big surprise. Boston had
nt A good team, a great coach and was all primed for the
battle. Yale had to be in top form to make any kind oC
2dV showing and the defeat proves sho was not.
.' While Old Ell was taking this drubbing, Syracuse
i and Pittsburgh were playing a 7 to 7 tie here In Arch
ibald stadium. Chick Median's team fought valiantly and
rvened the count after Pitt had scored in tho first eleven
'"'lAlnutes of play. ,
'ioa These two gnincs stood out In tho East. Princeton and
Harvard swamped Washington and Lee and Williams;
Cornell ran all over Union ; Penn had a lucky break and
ttfbeat Lafayette; Dartmouth just managed to nos out Holy
jCJross; Columbia easily defeated Amherst and tho Navy
jput over a 7 to 1! victory on Uuckncll.
ttift
rHE Syracuse-t'Ut battle attracted most attention
lecaiise tho tcamt tccre evenly matched, icell
coached and keyed up for a tough tussle. A (treat
game teas played and a lot of good football, freely
interspersed xcith glaring errors, kept the 25,000
spectators on edge throughout.
Warner Has Good Team
c
&
PITT scored on a straight line plunging attack early
in the game. Syracuse recovered a fumblo in the
rJjilrd period and evened tho count with what might be
called an unearned score.
Nevertheless, the deadlock was just about as It should
(Jje, for there was little to choose between tho teams
and everybody was satisfied.
Warner has a much better team than last year. He
has a smoother attack, and his defense is stronger than
ever before. In the past the veteran coach wai a firm
believer in the theory that n good offense was the best
defense, but now his views apparently havo changed.
Had it not been for exceptionally good work on tho
defense, Pitt would have been defeated. Time and
agaian after n Syracuse runner had been tackled, six
or seven men would arie from the ground. They
smothered a'most every end run.
There Is no doubt but that the Panthers were handi
capped by the wet Held and the "lippcry hall. Fumbles
occurred frequently, some statistician counting seventeen
during the game. The double and triple passes failed
to work and the aerial attack could not be depended
upon.
Some of the fumbles were due to the passing of Stein.
The Pitt captain stands sideways before putting tBs
ball in piny, and this, I believe, caused most of the
trouble. On a dry flc'd perhaps this style would have
been nil right, but it should havo been changed on a
wet day.
Hewitt, tho husky fullback, scored IMtt's touchdown,
and In this young man Warner has a star. He is a
second edition of McLaren, one of the greatest plunging
backs the game has ever seen. Like McLaren, ho first
.gained fame in Syracuse. On Saturday Hewitt hurled
his 210 pounds nt the line and was able to make some
good gains. He also did well on the defense.
r '
T&-YIES could not get started and it teas the same
- toith the other hackficld men. The line, note-
crcr, did fairly consistent tcorfc and
ties of future development.

KID WILLIAMS UPSETTING
TRADITIONS OF THE RING
'ormer Bantam Cramp Shoivs Lots of Stuff in Winning From
Game Little Joe Ndson at National
By LOUIS
rnlME and again a ring gladiator has
" pushed his chin In front of tho
other fellow's glove, nnd while taking
the count he saw stars lettered "They
never come back " King history proves
that only a few fistmen have succeeded
in resuming activities In the squnred
circle after being on the side lines for n
few years.
One little boxer ho Is knocking this
dope kicking is Kid Williams. The for
mer bantam boss has threatened to get
back into the spotglarc so prominently
os to convince fans and critics that he
should be given a chnnro to redeem his
lost laurels, now adorning tho brow of
Petey Herman. Williams has proved
himself a regular fomebnek kiddo.
On Saturday night
Williams went
tip against n real test. While his vic
tory over Joe Nelson was technicul. be
cause the bout had to be stopped at
the conclusion of the fifth round, the
former Bnltimorn bnttlcr showed con
clusively that he still possessed a lot
of class, mostly remnrknblc bhrcwdness,
ring generalship and experience.
For two rountlt Nelson looked like
a sure winner. "It's n 10-to-J shot
that Joe knocks out the kid," said
nrlngslder in the first round. Then.
WmianiH fooled everybody, got started
lit the third round nnd ho was a verit
able whirlwind His speed was dnz
siting nnd his prnches were often un
directed nnd hard It was unfortunate
for the heads of Nelson nnd Williams
to come together with the result that
the former suffered a severe ganli over
his left eye
Nelson lilecl prnfusi'lv from the
wound, so miicli so that he was handi
capped a lot, am bothered by the
blood trickling in his pe. But Joe
was game IIi grimly finished tin
third round nti'l tried his utmost to
bring down Williams in the fourth
nnd fifth frames. However. Rcferco
Tommy Keennn um-iI perfectly good
judgment In stopping the contest and
Mas upheld in IiIm derision by the club
doctor. Nelson wanted to continue
iu fact, ho pleaded to let the bout go
on, and then is no reuson wliv this
game little lad, who ha been boxing
nly n jear, should lose any of his
estigc.

EXPECTED;
IK ANALYZING the game It looks as if Syracuse could
havo prevented the first score bad Abbott used his
head. Early in Uic first period Davlcs punted and thrco
Pitt men got down under the kick. They surrounded
the catcher, and Abbott, Instead of signaling for a freo
catch, jumped forward, the ball hit him on tho chest
bounded off and a Pitt man fell on it. From there tho
ball was carried over tho lino for a touchdown.
Syracuse scored in the second period when Gulick
picked up a fumble nnd ran for a touchdown. However,
the score was not allowed.
To thoso in the stands it looked as If n Pitt man
muffed a pass, but it was nothing like that. Davies
tried to make a forward pass, which was blocked just
ns the ball left his hand. Ilcferce Hallahan Ulew his
whistle immediately, thus declaring the ball dead, nnd
after that Gulick made the long run. Mr. Ha'llaban
was right in his ruling.
After tho ball see-sawed up nnd down the field for
two more periods, with both sides fumbling frequently,
Pitt tried a triple pass. The last man missed the ball
in mldficld and again Gulick scooped It up and ran for
n touchdown. This timo the ecoro was allowed and
Abbott tied the count by kicking the goal?
The real star of tho gamo was Alexander, last year's
nil-American guard, who has been shifted to center. I
never have seen any one play a better defensive game.
He made more than CO per cent of tho tackles for his
Mile, was all over tho field nnd prevented several forward
passes.
Alexander Is a smart football player. He kniws the
game as well as any coach nnd can diagnose the plays
used by the opponent". On the offence ho only made
one bad pass aud opened big holes in tho line.
r ITIS work nn Saturday i any criterion, Alex
ander should bo all-American center this year.
A Median Triumph
IN A WAY the outcome of the game was a triumph for
Chick Median, tho young Syrncuso coach. This is
Median's first year as boss and thus far he has mado
good. He has taught his men n lot of sound football and
before tho season ends Syracuse should havo a formidable
eleven. ,
Now that this game is over, Pittsburgh has nothing
to do but piny Georgia Tech, Lafayette, the University
of Pennsylvania, Washington nnd Jefferson nnd Penn
State in order. Some schedule for any college team.
As wo casually mentioned last week, Yale had an
nllbl fixed up for the Boston College game, which now
can bo used. Injuries kept several of the best men out
of the line-up nnd now the list has been augmented by
the arrival of two more stars. Captain Callahan has
a badly wrenched arm and Aldrich suffered a sprained
ankle.
The defeat was n severe blow to Ynle's hopes. Tho
team looked stronger than any in the East early in tho
season, but flopped tho first time it faced real opposition.
Tnd Jones nnd his assistants have their work cut out for
them from now on.
JrtEXT Saturday will bring together some high
i" class teams and there should be plenty of excite
ment. Tlarvard and Center College xeill top the
list. Yale meets West Virginia, Princeton takes on
the Kavy, Cornell and Colgate tcill clash, and Syra
cuse meets Dartmouth at Hanover.

WHEN A FELLER
LOCAL GOLFERS PREPARING
FOR NIGHTCAP SEASIDE TILT
Atlantic City Fall Tourney Is Last Chance of Season and a
Large Entry Is Promised Piatt Proves He's Arrived
By SANDY
THE popular question along the
golfing rlnlto today is: "Are you
going to Atlantic City?" And judging
by tho almost invariable nnswer:
"Yes!" there is going to bo a long pa
rade of local golf talent stalking to the
first tee when Starter Fred Sherman
starts calling the roll Thursday morn
ing of this week, down there.
Tho official dates arc: October 21,
22, 23, alt of which is (Italics) argot
for Thursday, Friday and Saturday of
this week.
Tho fall tourney over the seashore
course is always popular partly be
cause it's the nightcap event of the
senson nnd you can't very well pass
up the last chance.
There is also just a little extra
leeway in the matter of sixtcens so a
player is pretty sure to creep in some
where, after which there are defeated
eights, handicap medal play and things
to keep even the losers busy.
Bon Air
Then ngain It's a great time of year
to nlnv the seashore course which is
said to be In very fine condition. Most
of the local regulars nrc preparing to
enter and thcro will, of course, bo a
goodly delegation from the wilds of
Jersey nnd from the metropolitan dis
trict. Quaker City players planning to golf
thero should get down their entry to
day, we take it. After that it will be
time enough to think about going to
Florida.
Just to think thnt n lone I'liilndel
phlan sailed forth to New York, entered
one of the biggest of the metropolitan
district invitation tourneys and took the
main trophy away from that throng of
expert shotsmen.
J. Wood l'lutt, local champion, nud

and Franco, erased them all, and then
IMntt beat Armour lu the finals.

Plans Under Way to Have
Philadelphia in Six
Club Circuit
It looks ns though Philadelphia will
be represented In a professional hockey
league this jear. Tho first step in this
direction was taken jcsterd.iy, when
Dinny Scnnlon, nn Ice-skating pro
moter, visited this city, seeking n fran
chise. He conferred with Georgo F.
Pawling, president of the Ice Palace.
According to the preocnt plans, the
professional hockey league will bo a
six-club circuit, with Cleveland, Pitts
burgh, New Yoik, New Haven, Hoston
nnd Philadelphia represented. As tliero
Is no rink in New York the Gotham
ites probably will make tho Ice Palace
here their home rink.
There nlso is n chance of the speed
skating championship coining here.
Norvnl Baptle, the Mlnncnotn son of
speed, who rates with the best, nud the
man who iilwnjs challenged Bobby Mc
Lean's right to the title, will be hero
the Intter part of the week. Scanlon
Is the man who piloted McLean on his
Scandinavian tour and is qualified to
speak for McLean.
.McLean ami uaptie nave never
met," said Scanlon. "More than
ono promoter has tried to bring thorn
togethe, but without results. It seems
nn though neither has anything to gain
lu the way of a reputation by meeting,
and each hns evaded the chance for
fear of losing prestige.
"Now they must get together. This
city has a wonderful place to stage
tho racu at the Ico Palace, and I don't
see why they shouldn't get together."

Concentrated
Tho first flight was rather classier
than tho national, due to its concen
trated strength.
The first day Miss Stirling enter
tained a gallery that followed her un
swervingly thorughout the week, Iu tho

GIRARD ATHLETES
LIKELY CHAMPIONS
Soccer Team Beats George
School and May Win
1920 Title
GIrard College loomed up as the likely
Philadelphia and district scholastic soc
cer champions when they defeated tho
Georgo School team In tho game at
GIrard 2 to 0. Georgo School has an
enviable reputation In soccer circles nnd
few school teams have succeeded In
scoring over tho Newtown boys. Sara
Kramer and Murray got the goals which
gave GIrard tho victory. . ,
West Philadelphia High, Frankford
nigh and Upper Darby have fast teams,
but It Is doubtful If any of these schools
will Wo ablo to outwit the collegians.
Though GIrard has a. youthful team, the
boys show excellent teamwork and have
lots of stamina. Upper Darby, victors
over Central Wlrh. ahnttld nrOVO worthy
opponents and will moot GIrard later in
too season.
Frankford High has n soccer team
which should figure In the locnl chain
pIonshlD series. Frankford bos such
stars as Schwartz, Thompson, Grnpp,
uransoacK ana Corson. Too FranKiora
athletes defeated Penn freshmen re
cently 5 to 2. Coach Murphy, of Frank
ford, Is confident that ho hns tho best
aggregation In tho city, excepting GI
rard College. GIrard nppears to have
the edgo on tho teams In this section
of tho state.
Lower Morion Trims Media
Among the many interesting week
end football games was tho Lower MerJ
ion Hlgh-Mcdla High gamo at Medial
Lower Merion hns a first-class team this
year in spite of the rather disappoint
ing result of the Central High game.
Tho Ardmore boys surely came back
with a vengeance when thoy trimmed
Media 25 to 0. In rverr nnnrter the
Merlonites tallied a touchdown.
r sbrtllu shrdlu sbrdlu mm hh mm mm
KUnatrlck scored two touchdowns nnd
Merrill nnd Powell, the fullback, each
scored one. Kllpntrlck made only one
goal from touchdown. Forward passes
by Kllpatrlck, Llchty and Merrill
worked for many gains. Powell's lino
plunging was a feature in the over
whelming victory.
Bryn Athyn Academy met with littlo
opposition In the game with P. I. D
winnning 40 to 0. The Burnhnms,
AchtonB nnd the Stcbblngs all helped to
run up tho large tally. Doering, the star
bnckfieltl player, did not miss a single
chance to make a goal from touchdown,
getting seven in a row. Some of tho
city high schools ought to have players
of this typo on the teams, and sorao of
these close Glmbel Cup games might
end differently.
Slough Helps Norrixtown
, J" k Slough, the Norrlstown High
halfback, was again in togs, nnd Nor
ristown defeated West Chester High
School by a score of 01 to 0. Not that
Norrlstown would have failed to win
without Slough, for the up-state team
was entirely too strong, but Slough's
renirn ncipcn to put tlio punch in Nor
ristown's battering ram backfleld and
they hammered awny for nn easy ver
dict. Although Slough scored three touch
downs, the others got n chance. Cole
mnn, Blsblng. Borzlllo nnd Mnirs each
tallied one. M. Swede nnd Buckenhurst
kicked the goals from touchdown.
.Many Big Games This Week
Tho schoolboys look forward to a big
week. Central High and Frankford
play Friday. LaSalle and West Cath
olic clash In a Catholic League game on
the same afternoon. A soccer game
which will attract considerable atten
tion Is between Upper Dnrbv and Cen
tral High tomorrow on the Central
High field. West J'hiladclphla and
Northeast play soccer on Thursday. ,

EXPORTING ATHLETES

Stars of Football and Baseball Claim Little Brother 6f
Rhode Island as Birthplace Rice Suggests
Songs of Certain Ball Players
By GBANTLAND RICE
Oh, Yon Texas!
LARRY BOYNTON, of Williams
College and of Texas, in his stirring
gridiron achievements, Is merely calling
attention to tho main products of
Rhode Island's littlo pal down In the
southwest corner of theso hero United
(at times) States.
Wo refer again to Texas and her
main exports which happen to bo
athletes.
You don't believe It?
Whore does the world's champion
baseball manager come from? Hub
bard City, Tex.
Where docs tho game's greatest out
fielder como from? Same place.
Who U Rogers Hornsby, champion
batsman of the National League? Just
a Texan.
Where does Ross Young, best all
around outfielder In tho National
League, come from? Stmo old state.
And Then
NOTHING short of another Ecker
sall or another Charley Daly is
going to supplant Larry Boynton and
Bob McMUlln, of Williams and Centre,
as the leading quarterback of the year.
Boynton cornea from Texas, as wo
remarked before.
So docs McMUlln.
So do four or five others on tho Cen
tre team.
Thcro aro a number of others, of
course, but in tho mcanwhllo Speaker,
Hornsby, Young, Boynton and McMU
lln will do fairly well for a few light
examples.
Another One
ONLY this one isn't from Texas. But
Our energetic scouts, with an eyo
out to the main idea, which is spot
ting exceptional talent, reports the
presence of the game's star tackle ns
far west as tho Pacific coast. His name
is Grim.
"You can take it ns n fact," com
ments a western football observer,
"that Grim, of Washington Univer
sity, Is tho best tncklo in tho world
today. Weighing 228 stripped, ho is
fast, aggressive and well grounded in
nil tho rudiments of tackle play. In a
physical way he is another Schuls, of
Michigan a man of might, weight and
speed, who Is in thcro playing football
every second of the game. Few eastern
critics have ever heard of him, and yet
ho is easily the star of the coast."

Expressing a Doubt
IT MAY be that baseball Is in reality
on tho vergo of drawing a fresh,
clean start, with men of vision direct
ing its affairs.
But wo doubt it.
First, they lot Chase remain after
Mathowson had testified thnt Chase mi

Then they let him stay and the New
York Giants Immediately signed htm.
Then when It was definitely under
stood In many quarters last fall that
the Sox had turned crooked, when tha

lowed to piny out tho bulk of tht

And then It wasn't baseball thnt did
