Service Game at Franklin
Conflict With Yale-Harvard, Lafayette-Lehigh

ScerM Editor I-enlna; Public I.ed-er
" (fpHE Army Navy football game will return te Philadelphia next fall and the
If cltl-ens of our fair city ere taking this news with enthusiasm, or words
i'ethat effect. Pennsylvania is nil het up ever It, nnd Franklin Field will he
renovated, dry cleaned nnd pressed for the oeraslen. lt is expected thnt the
rebuilding of the Mnnds will be completed by October t. and with extra scats
cloWte 00,000 spectators can be nccommednted.
The Increased capacity of the Held is the factor that enabled the lied and
Blue authorities te reclaim the classic. West Point always is in favor of
itaglhg the same In New Yerk at the Pole Grounds, because of the com cem
pa'ratlvelv short run down the Hudsen te the big town. The Xnvy, however.
had the choice this season, and the Middies, being anxious te escape long land
Journeys, picked Frankliu Field, new that the capacity has been raised te
(jual the Pole Grounds.
'' The dnte of the contest has been set for Saturday, November 2.". This Is
atranga and unusual, for the service struggle invariably is stnged en the
Saturday following, net preceding. Thanksgiving Day. This means thnt
Tale nnd Harvard will have a big rival nttrnctien en the day of their annual
engagement and se will Swnrthmore-Haverferd nnd Lehigh-Lafayette. Tn
ether words, the nttenlien of the foetbnll public in this city will be divided
among four hcndllnerc.
Four years age the officials of the two Government academies entered Inte
a five.-year ngreement. It doesn't tekr a figger-filbert te dope out that the
contract expires nt the end of this coming reason. The point we want le
bring out, however, is that a clause of the agreement stated that in easj'
tie Saturday following Thanksgiving Day falls In December, either institution
can Insist en the game being played in November, and get nway with it.
r Thanksgiving Day is November "0 this year, se thnt the circumstances
havcarisen for the first time since the signing of the pepers and West Point
requested that the contest be waged en November T. The Navy held out for
. December 2, but was out of luck. Already the Cadets have wen that part of
the 1022 nrgument.
t The Army-Navy game always has been the climax of tl;e collegiate foot
ball season The conches nnd players from colleges nil ever the Hast fleck
te, the contest. The appearance of the Cadets and Middies for yenrs has been
considered the final clete-un before the last fade-out nnd will lese some of
Its color in this respect if played en November 25, with se many rival at
tractions and the big gnmes of Thanksgiving Day te fellow. The Array
should reconsider and put the game in its accustomed place. Franklin Field
will be available en December 2. as well as November 23.
THE four big games scheduled for Xereniber 2e tclll te played nt
stadiums icith a total seating capacity of close te 150,000. All
t of which means that if you're lucky you should be able te purchase
a ticket for ene of the four garnet.
' Lafayette Deserved Veterans' Trophy
I(i'A'FATETTE COLLEGE has been awarded the football championship uf
1 ,the East for 1021 nnd received a silver loving cup. cmblcmntic of thnt
championship, from the Veteran Athletes of Philadelphia. Thus the Kastern
Institution has something te prove thnt its football eleven went through the
easen without a defeat and ranked close te the top In the final averages.
' Selecting a championship team at the close of the season is merely n
matter of opinion. The undefeated elevens have the call and Penn State.
Lafayette, Washington nnd Jeffersen nnd Cernell were eligible. State played
the hardest schedule, playing most of the gnmes nway from home, defeated
Qeprgla Tech and the Navy and tied Ilarrard and Pittsburgh. It took a
geed team te get away with a list of games like that. Waohingten nnd
TeSersen had n much better team than any one cspcctcd. The victory ever
I$tt was the outstanding feature of the season, but the best work was done
hr.post-seasen battles.
, , Greasy Ncale's team defeated the strong Detroit College aggregation in
Detroit' and then traveled te the Ceat, where California was held te a score
leas tie. Taking it all in all, the Western game was the greatest accom
plishment. Traveling across the Continent docs net help a football team and
this, with the change in climate and ttrange surroundings, created a handicap
tha only a geed team could overcome. Therefore, W. nnd .1. stauds out al
one, of the best elevens of the year.
Cernell also was geed, but the two bright spots were the Dartmouth and
Penn games. The ether teams en the schedule were weak, and the Ithacans
did net have an opportunity te show the real strength of the team.
. It was. the sa.ine. with Lafayette. The hardest game was plavcd en
October 2, when Pittsburgh was defeatpd. After that Dickinsen, Kuckncll.
Terdham, Itutgers, Penn, Delaware and Lehigh were played, and it was a
ahame that harder opponents could net be procured. The Maroen nnd Whit'e
had the strongest rush line in the country and the backfield also was power
ful. The team wns well coached and there is no doubt that it could have
held' Ha own with any of the undefeated eleven?.
, The Veteran Athletes did net make a mistake in presenting the cup te
Lafayette. Personally, we favored Penn State, with' Lafayette second; but as
ywaa aaid before, that is only a matter of opinion. The veterans figured that
Pitt was beaten. C te 0, and State and Pitt played a O-te-0 tie. That
aeemed te give the Eastenlans the edge.
JAFAYETTFl deserved some
season and really earned the
Afhletes.
Jee Brown, Comedian and Ball Player
fpHE ether night we crashed into the Shubert Theatre and saw a regular
actor put ever some comedy stuff that brought many sincere giggles "from
the, audience. The actor looked familiar, but we could net place him. There

Temmy Strain, guardian of the outer gate and a geed guv te knew
aauntered up and said: "De you knew who that is? That's Je Brown'

Jee was at the ripe old age of seventeen when he horned Inte the
American Association as a second baseman. He had been playing nil ever
the country witli a circus team, ns he had been following that line of work
since he was ten years old, and seemed te like it. He used te go with the
circus In the summer and go te school In the winter.

THIS UK are few branches of golf

by the United Stntes (!elf Association,
has bared the clubs nenrly a quarter

this amount will continue te Increase.

' A dinner was given at which greens
chairmen of nearly all the local clubs
I were present. It developed into a club.
1 of which Mr. Klklns was made chlet
, and several meetings have been held.
Last season the members held a
tournament, which was also an in- '
duccment te bring out n solid line-up
te view competition between various

as well as te hear n lecture by famous 1

SPEED A VITAL ASSET
IN ANY SPORT BRANCH
Dempsey, Walker, Ruth,
Faster Club, Fist or Feet Than Rivals
and Lead Title Race
Hy GKANTLAND MCE
TrOIlE and mere It Is established that
J,TA without speed ln competitive sport
one Is very much as tinkling brass or
sounding cymbal, or vice v.crsa.
The boxer who Is ruling the heavy
weight destinies of Eurepe by an over
whelming margin weighs only 171
pounds.
The boxer who Is ruling the heavy
weight destinies of the world weighs
only 100 pounds, ringside.
Men from twenty te forty pounds
heavier, with long experience, are
helpless against "both, the extra dis
placement meaning nothing against
much greater apeed.
And most of theso who may have
visions seme day of dropping Dempsey
haven't Intelligence enough te knew
development of speed is the first etcp,
the foundation, the primal necessity,
the main Ingredient.
Willard found thnt n surnlus of sixty
pounds ln weight, six inches ln height
nnd six Inches ln reach wasn't enough
te last four rounds.
In Oilier Lines
THE worth of speed comes into nil
branches of the gnmc. Hew is lt
that Cyril Walker, weighing 115
; pounds, can drive n golf ball ns far as
i nny man in the game en nn average
turn?
Merely because Walker dcviscii a
svstem. tint nnlv of lilttintr threueh
with his right, but of turning ever his
lert wrist in such fashion that at the
moment of impnet the club head was
moving .with tcrrlllc velocity.
It wns nil mainly a matter of getting
speed into the club head at the right
place.
Hew docs speed help "Babe" Ituth
hit home runs?
lluth can swing a heavier bat with
greater speed than any one else can
swing a lighter bat.
He can make n Ilfty-two-eunce blud
geon whistle through the nir, nnd whe'i
this much weight, moving like a streak,
lands upon a ball the result is bound te
be abnormal.
Speed hns meant mere te Ty Cobb
than any ether single factor, in this
case physical and mental speed working
together.
Speed is a vital nssct te Tllden's ten
nis gnme, because it also helps te make
his change of pace mere puzzling.
And speed has held Walter .lohnsen
around the top for fourteen yearn.
Spring Football
IT WILL net be very long new be
fore spring foetbull gets 'under wny.
The wonder is, In this type of prac
tice, that mere coaches den t go in for
the development of speed.
This enn De accomplished hy long
drills at quick starting, where linemen
and backs are trained and taught te get
under headway in a flash.
It Is almost Impossible te hammer
tee much of this ingredient into a
squad.
In the same way ballplayers can add
greatly te .their value by practicing
quick stnrtlng nt every chance.
We knew of n certain shortstop who
used te get out early nnd practice quick

Glen Klllingcr could swli e Inte top
