BIG FOOTBALL TEAMS
NO LONGER HAVE IT
EASY IN EARL Y GAMES
Tough Schedules Are Arranged Frem the Start and
Small College Elevens Often Upset the Depe Pitt
and Lafayette Is Biggest Game Next Saturday
Hy UOnEUT W. MAXWELL
Spert Editor Kvrnlng I'utille Ledger
ONCE upon a time bljf college football tenma would wnde through the
September nml October football gmues with little worry, linnd out decisive
beatings te nil opponents nnd grt in shape for the two or threo championship
games in November. In these days It was almost impossible for n small team
te defeat n lerger rival. Even if n touchdown were scored ngnlnst a uinjer
college, the entire sports world would sit up nnd take notice.
Hut conditions nre different new. Ne longer de the se-called larger
colleges occupy the spotlight, because nobody knows when they will get a
aeck en the chin nnd take the long count. Football hns been changed and
beef nnd brawn no longer nre the principal njwts. ln-tead we have speed nnd
brains, nnd these enn be found in many small institutions. It takes only
eleven men te make a football team, nnd if they enn be found in n college with
an enrollment of 400 thc nre just ns effective ns if they had been selected
from 4000. It's the team that counts net the student body.
Nobody evrr get excited in the geed old dnjs until the November games
approached. They were the big things nnd the ethers were considered apple
sauw, which is slnng for mediocre minus. The early games were practlce
scrlrainngcs, nnd the only thing doubtful was the score.
New let us step into the jear liKil. which Is well known and quite
fnmllinr te nil of us. We have football in every college nnd there arc many
high-class teams. YuK Prlnccen and Ilurwud nrc out in front because of
tradition, but there are ethers just as geed and pcrhnpi better. Competition
la mere keen and it is the survival of the fittest.
Earl) -season games no longer nm soft. Everj game is a big one and
the team that wades through a modern schedule without losing n game ML Si
be geed. The opening tilts are net se bad. as wns the case last Saturday, but
from new en the going is rough. Ter example, take the Lafayette-Pittsburgh
game in Ensteu next Saturday This i a big game mid worthy of a later
date. However, it is te be plned ei. October 1. and it is the bnttle which is
attracting most attention. Thorp will be nn enormous crowd nnd special
trains will be run ou the Heading Saturday morning.
i 310DEUX football team docs net have it easy as of yore. Fer
A example, talc the Pittsburgh team. Xcxt Saturday it is Lafayette,
and after that come West Virginia, Cincinnnii, Syiacusc, Pennsyl
vania, Nebraska, Washington and Jeffersen and State. There u only
one easy battle, and that i trM Cincinnati.
Every Game Is a Hard One
PRINCETON plas only seven games, but they are pretty tough. Hill Reper
opens with Sworthmere en Saturday and then will take en Colgate. ir
ginin. Navy. Chicago. Harvard and Yale. Ilnnard, after finishing th
Hely Cress en Saturday, only has te meet Indiana, t.eergm. Peun btate,
Centre. Princeton. lirewn and Yale. Try that schedule en our vlctreln.
The Crimson is showing a bread-minded spirit in scheduling games with
teams from the West and Seuth. Once upon a time an outsider couldn't break
in with a stein of TNT. but new Harvard is meeting nil comers. It is a
neat thing for foetbtll. . , ,,.-,.
Penn St-itc is te be kept buy nnd will have te play te the limit after
Saturday's game. On that day Huge Bezdck's eleven meets North Carolina.
nd nftcr that reme I.ehlgh, Harvard at Cambridge, (.eergla lech at New
Yerk Cnrncgie Tech. the Navy at Philadelphia and Pittsburgh at Pittsburgh.
The athletes will see n let of the country while plajing these tough games,
and, believe us, it is SOME schedule for ANY college.
All of which brings us back te Penn. 'Ihe Red and Blue evidently forget
about being a big college when the schedule was arranged, for every miner
college has been invited te journey te Ernnklin Field te be beaten except Bryn
Mawr The opening game was with Delaware, and after that will cqjne the
powerful elevens representing Franklin nnd Marshall and C.ettysburg. This
makes it possible te score three vkteries in a row. which might be called a
winning streak. However, easy victories like that of last Saturday de a
team mere harm than geed. An afternoon is wasted and the men get tired
ler no reason. .
After the first three opponents hnve been put en the shelf Swarthmore and
Virginia Military Institute will appear. The Garnet lest te Penn last yenr,
but the Southerners socked them for a round trip. These gam" will be fairly
even, but after that ceiiie Pitt, Lafnyette, Dartmouth and Cernell. They
will be vcrj hard games nnd Penn will have te be in shape te come through.
And the preliminary contests will net help.
It takes a real football team te go through one of the modern schedules,
and te us it leeks like a bone-hended play te schedule tee easy games at the
start. Plners cannot get into condition in running up big scores. They need
opposition te learn their shortcomings and mistukes.
Fer that reason the I.afnette-Pittsburgli game looms up big en the horizon
and thousands will be en hand te see what it is all about. Never before have
two teams that stand out like these met at such an early date.
JUOIIODY fcneici iche trill ici'n, and this makes it all the letter.
it Lafayette is strong and se is 1'ttt. It's a case of take your choice
and hope for the best.
Seme Inside Depe en Pitt
MUCH has been written about Pittsburgh, but here is the real dope dished
out by Karl E. Davis, graduate manager nnd head of the publicity
bureau. He says:
"The Lafayette game has been the Pitt coach s goal in nil the preliminary
work, and mere hard practice has been crowded In the period nt camp than
r before. The Panthers will present their strongest team against Lafayette,
the probable llnc-up being as fellows- Center, Bowser; guards, Sack and
Seidelsen, or Peters; tackles. Hnrman and McLean; ends. Stem and Williams;
quarterback, Helleran; halfbacks, Captain Davits and Hnrtnett. or Andersen;
fullback, Hewitt. This team haH been going well in practice and leeks even
stronger than the 1020 vnrsity. Bowser, who will held down the center
berth, wns substitute at the position last 5 ear, and always gav a geed ac
count of himself. He is even a mere accurate passer than Stein, All-American
1020 center.
"Sack, one of the guards, played tinkle last year nnd was n bearcat.
Seidelsen comes from the 1020 fre-hman team, where he proved a. stone wall
in the line. Beth are Plttshuigh Fifth Avenue High Scheel boys. Peters, a
member of the senior class, is eligible for one year at Pittsburgh under the
one-year residence rule, as he was enrolled all last yenr. He is n New Jerbey
boy and played n year nt Penn during the R. A. T. C. period. The tackles,
"Harrann and McLean, are both veterans, Harmen weighing around the 200
mark and McLean going about 180. Williams was one of the varsity ends
last year, nnd Stein placed center. He hns been going well at his new position
and Coach Warner predicts that he will make just as great a record there as
he did nt renter.
"The bnckfleld leeks like one of the best-balan''ed that the Panthers have
ver presented. The fighting Helleran at quarterback is as nggressive ns ever
and he is directing the plnyH in faultless style. Captain Tem Davies preUdes
a brilliant epcn-tield runner nnd. with a back working next te him like An An
dereon or Ilartnett, he is liable te get uwny at any time.
ilVJEW'ITT, the fullbail. weighs mere than 200 pounds and ras
unstoppable in all the bg namri last year. Uxs fault in 1920
teas inability tn held the ball, but he seemi te haxc remedied this
defect thin ycu ."
Mere Crucial Serips
CORNELII'S McCILLICl'DDY, te use his voting name, and Cenn.e Mack,
as he is known when mnnnginz the Athletics, is down in last place with
his team, but he held the center of the baseball stage tedaj Babe Ruth and
his pnls, which is another way of referring te the New Yerk Yankees, Mart
a two-game series with our AV nt Shihe Park this afternoon that has a most
Important bearing en the Amerlenn League championship While the Yanks
and the Mnckmen nre indulging In their little set-te, Clevelnnd, runners-up
and anxious te be the ups, start a four-game series with the White Sex that
also haH nn important hearing en the American League pennant wlnnpr.
The seventh and eighth plnce holders of the league have the destinies of the
first nnd second tcaum in their hands for tedaj nt least
Eddie Remmel, Ilryaii Harris mid Re Moere, the Athletics' pitching
Otaff, have shown n sudden reversal of form during the Inst ten days. The
Baltimore boy has placed three straight games en the victory side of the
ledger by twirling as well ns any pitcher in the league. Harris has shown n
return te his cight-straight-vlctery form of July nnd August, while Moere
pulled n shut-out en the Sex the ether day tlmt shows that he is nlse in form.
The three young gentlemen mentioned are due te fare Hugglns nnd his crew
Btnrting this afternoon, and if they twirl like they hnve been twirling in the
aforementioned ten Hays, nnd the team hit as it has been hitting during the
en me space, we might find the Yankees out of first place by Saturday night
If the Athletics win two out of the threi gnmes with the Yanks while the
Indians nre winning four straight, the second game of the World's Series will
bi played in Cleveland. On the ether hand, if the Athletics win three games
' from the Yankees nnd the Indians score three out of four from the Sex, the
Cleveland fans will be wild with joy.
Then again, a clean sweep of the series with the Maekmen while the
Indians nrc winning four from the Sex, will give the New Yorkers the pen-
Bant. The standing then would show !7 victories nnd fin defents for the Yanks
ad, 07 victories and 07 defeat., for the Indians. The Indians, however, uie
lip ngnlnst the same preposition as the Yankees. They nrc forced te meet
during their btny In the Windy City two of the best hurlers in the lengue

Ttve victories here nnd the third in

give the Yanks the pennant even if the

peniiuut by cleaning the berics with the
White Sex.
The l'irates meet St. Leuis this aft

for the Giants, who are idle. A de

Te figure tbem, one must figure ticlr

Hunter proved te be one of the finest

fact still remains that outside of our

Is perhaps just ns well that one doesn't

of the goals worth while nre n long war

no longer genls worth while. Richards

"When will Richards nnd Jenes be
