ON FRANKLIN FIELD,
PRESEASON PROMISE
, Head Tuter Pleased Alike With Werk of Assistants and
Players in Training Camp Twenty-seven
Desirables Fail te Repert for Early Drill
THE University of Pennsylvania Is reIiir te have a better football tam
during the ceinlnR season than It lias "had In neme years, If It Is within
the power of Head Coaeh Ilchnmn and ills assistants te bring out the latent
ability In the eqtiuil training diligently at Mount Gretna.
HelRtnan bellves he 1" pelnp te have a better team than Ian year and the
'year before. Captain "PW Miller is peiltivc the eleven that opens the season
against Franklin and Mnrshall the last Saturday of the month en Franklin
Field will rival the bet teams of recent years.
fcvery player In the squad and the nsslstant coaches feel as de Helsman
nd Miller. I'esslmMm Is unknown In the camp and the general atmosphere of
ptimtsm Is In striking contrast te that of Geerge Scheel and Cape May in
previous years.
"The spirit of this year's squad is something fine," said Helsman In com
menting en conditions generally.
"There is something different about it. Our practices te date have been of
necessity purely rudimentary in character, but I have noted with pleasure the
changed manner In which the squad te a man gees about Its work, which
augers well for the future.
DEMPSEY OUT FOR
dad Left a wide opening
"yZS change in spirit ii trhat I have been looking for ever since
coming te Pennsylvania with its tradition of fighting elevens. If
it continues, and I de net doubt that it tcill, I'cnn icill prove a
ttumbling block te many teams during the coming campaign.
Spirit's the Thing
V"XCE we get the spirit that these boys have into our sMdciit body, we
vy are going te placf I'cnn back en its football pedestal. Yeu knew this
fame of football Is just like the game of life. A man gets out of it just what
he puts into It. The mere time, energy and spirit he Instills Inte lil play.
the better man he Is and the mere credit be Is te his university and hlmclf."
Helsman likens the spirit of student bodies te the patriotism in war times.
"Many a man who doesn't leek the part ,f the here," Helsman said,
"suddenly becomes one when he t-ees what Is going en about him In times of
War or, te use an Illustration nearer home, during football seasons, men who
might net appear te have a let of ability suddenly find themselves before the
cheering crowd, the band and the colors and prove heroes.
"I have been trying for two jears te Instill that spirit into my players
and I think I have finally succeeded. I am Immensely pleased with the
earnestness the squad is bringing Inte eery minute's play. They are untiring
and If they continue te show the same spirit from new until the end of the
football season 1'enn Is going te have a geed team."
Net only is Helsman well pleased with th work of his players, but he Is
equally enthusiastic ever his coaching u.lstnnts. "Dr. Draper, Tem Mc
Namnra and Hartman jumped Inte the fight jesterday with all the fire of
a mid-week practice previous te an Important game "The manner In which
they took held and went te work means grand results," commented the
head coach.
ALL of what lltisman said about his players and coaches is borne
JTX out by the few workouts they have had. Eiery man in the squad
reported in excellent physical condition, icith the result that they icere
able te give that much mere in practice.
Coaches Werk Hard
YESTERDAY afternoon Helsman divided his squad and sent some te Dr.
Draper, ethers te McXamara and still ethers te Hartman, the newest
tutor. The remainder, all veteran backs, were looked after by the head coach.
Draper demonstrated the art of tackling of hitting the man low enough
te drop him and keep him down and the manner in which a lineman and back
can drive the man carrying the ball back without the latter gaining an Inch.
A player would stand five yards away from another and the two would
tush at each ether, the man called by the coach being the one te attack. The
attacked could use the straight arm or sidestep. It was noticeable that few
were able te get by unhindered.
The first signal drill of the season was held under the guidance of Tem
McNamara. "Babe" Greve, that chunk of steel when It comes te tackling,
was at quarterback; Jesse James and Gould were the halves, and Claude
Curtis, the former St. Paul star, at fullback. Adams, a scrub center of last
year, occupied the pIet position, with Henn and Dunn, ends; Bryden and
Swan, tackles, and Hypps and Cullen, guards.
Within ten days the two-a-day scrimmage workouts will be started. The
coaches are net entirely satisfied with the parade ground for scrimmage work
because It Is rough and covered with stones and is net an ideal place for this
Branch of the game.
THE tackling dummies, which arrived in camp yesterday afternoon,
were immediately erected for use this afternoon and the squad
it ready te hit the sawdust man with might and mam, se te speak.
Seme Geed Prospects
OF THE men who have never shown their wares beere, McDonald, a strap
ping big fellow of ISO pounds, who did some crew work, leeks like an
excellent line prospect. Se does Bill Celeman, who has the physique of Jack
Kelly. In all probability Celeman will be placed with the backs, although he
gained experience In the line.
Mike Ready, who plajcd a jear with the University of Maryland and who
last year was Ineligible at I'enn because of the one-; ear rule, Is one of the
most premising of the new men. He played with McNaraara's scrubs last
year in the back Held and time and again made big gains through the varsity.
According te one of the coaches, Ready Is the best forward passer, drop
kicker and placement kicker Penn has had In a long while. He will get every
opportunity te show his worth when hcrimmage drills start.
Bert Schauff, who played a year with the University of Nebraska and
la rated as a star back, Is expected In camp within a few days. He wired
Helsman he was en his way East, These who have seen him play in the West
ay he will muke a great bid for a regular pest In the backfleld. He weighs
180 pounds, stands six feet and can run the hundred slightly in excess of ten
seconds.
Helsman expects te make a change in his coaching plana. Since Bevan
refused te sign a contract the end tutoring will have te be done by one of
the ether coaches.
Bert Bell, Instead of assisting with the freshmen, will help Helsman with
the varsity backs along with Tem Davtes.
Jim Compten, manager of the team, Is carrying en negotiations with
Heward Berry and expects te get a decision from the star of several years
age within a few days. Berry will tutor the varsity punters and assist Dr.
Jack Keogh with the first-year backs.
TWEXTY SEVEX players upon xchem lleisman counted for this
season are conspicuous by their absencejrem the camp. Several
are ineligible, ethers have failed te answer the letters asking them
te report, a number have satd they were through with football and
a few are en the fence.
Many Stars Missing
MARSHALL PAYNE, the freshman center of last year, flunked out of col
lege and will be seen in a Franklin and Marshall uniform this fall. A
teammate of Payne at Dewltt Clinten High Scheel, New Yerk, "Nig" Keens,
who made the longest homer ever seen en Franklin Field a year age last
prlng, also left college and will go te Franklin and Marshall.
King, another first-year star, will net return te the University. Tex

LOCAL FISTIC REP
i
Seuth Phillie Lightweight Seeks-
Chance te Bex Before
Heme Audiences
IS STILL IN HIS TEENS
By LOUIS II. JAFFE
TUST as the curtain fell en the fistic
campaign last season a lightweight,
a Seuth Philadelphia 13fi-peundcr,
started te M.-lutllIatr en the local hort hert
70ti. With the advent of the 1022-2.t
session this lad will fall In line and
make an effort te bring glove glory te
the downtown section.
He Is Eddie Dempey. Eddie is still
In his teens, lacks experience, isn't the
hardest puncher his weight In Phila
delphia and Is far from bring a star,
but Dempsey is in the making. He has
the qualities te become n successful
mlttman, and all he has te de Is pro
duce. Dempsey believes he will produce if he
Is given a chance by the matchmakers In
Philadelphia. Eddie contends It was
hard for him te have local fans become
acquaint"! with his nbllity last ;ear,
because he did most of his boxing out
of town.
This year Eddie hopes te show suffi
cient stuff te have his services in de
mand for home competition.
Dempsey has rounded into fine fettle
for the 1022-23 season, and he will
get under way nctt Thursday night,
when he meets Jee McCabe at Lancaster.
Jehnnv Mealey nnd Patsy Brederlck.
I especially the latter, are opponents
I Eddie would like te have in Philndel
I phia. Dempsey was defeated bv Brod Bred
erick for the Geerge F. Pawling belt tlit
I summer, and Ed is anxious te prove he
is rat s superior in tne ring.
A. E. F. Lightweight
Champien Is in Philadelphia
Lee Patterson, American E. F.
champion, which title he annexed In
Pari-, France. In January, 1010. has
Invaded Philadelphia. Lee is a Negro
and he halls from St. Leuis. He lias
boxed all ever the country, having
been in the ring for something like
eight ;cars and he has competed In
200 battle-., about 2." per cent ending
with his fees being put te sleep.
"Here is the proof," said Patterson
today, showing a bronze medal with the
necessary inscriptions te prove his right
te the A. E. F. lightweight laurels. Lee
says he defeated Bushy Graham, of
Brooklyn, for the championship.
While In Philadelphia Patterson will
be handled by Herman Levin, who docs
net bar any Negro nt 135 pounds, en
behalf of the St. Leuis scrapper. "I
understand mixed bouts arc te be per
mitted In New Yerk," said Levin, "Bnd
in that event I probably will take Pat
terson there for competition this fall.
Lee is no false alarm. He can box,
being a real clever scrapper, and there
are net many men his weight in the
country who can lick him."
Bill Mhlie Sccfcs
Anether Dempsey rieut
Bill Miske, like Bill Brennan, in
ready at ajiy old tlmp te place his jaw
In jeopardy by meeting Jack Dempsey.
Miske has been knocked en his back by
the champion before, but the St. Paul
boxer Is willing te get socked into the
rein agnin.
In suggesting that he be given another
bout with Dcmpsej, Miske has the fol
lowing te say :
"I have beaten Brennan, Reper and
Burke and I knocked out Fulton in the
same time it took Dempsey and Wills
te de it. This should be sufficient te
qualify me for another chance nt Demp
sey. but If Willard will meet mc I will
tackle him gladlj, for thaCfight would
chance with the champion."

A Comeback at the Lively Ball
TOE McGINNITY has a comeback for the gentlemen who believe a lively tut '
v is rcspepiuie ier iuc epidemic vi uuiue run. nuu mgu Branding ,euu nuttrtta
Jeseph, ion remember, was a side partner of Christy Mathewson en tfcv,
Giants' pltcling staff seme two decades age. ft
He places the blame for the numerous base hits net en the ball, but en uV
pitchers of today, nndBurely McGlnnlty qualifies ns an expert en hurling. fi
"Pitchers nowndeya don't knew bow te feel 'em any mere," said JeMtt
"It doesn't mnke any difference whether the bnll is lively or dead. If tW't
pitcher can keep the batter from taking a fair and square crnck at the ball tU1!
result will be n pep-up or n strikeout. A curve bnll will de that, but the supsly
of curve-ball pitchers that is, geed curve-ball pitchers Is small. 2
"The last World Series showed that the liveliness of the ball has nothing tr tr
de with the ense. There was some geed hurling in that series nnd thr u. '
wns n dearth of hitting. These pitchers knew hew te feel the hitters with cums, '"
"Until we develop mere curve-ball twiners, changing the material in tftfj
ball will net keep down hitting te any extent." ,
THE news that Reading had quit the Eastern League, .sent out by
the cage officials, was premature, and the Bears will be back,
according te owner, Bert Biipp. All of which should be pleasing te
the up. State fans, who will be glad te see Herman Baetzel back in
action.
