, BANQUET TEAM
Maroon and Gray Expects to
.Retrieve Defeat of Thanks
giving Dny Next Year
One hundred members of the
.Alumni Association of the Technical
high school gathered last night at
Menger's Cafe for their annual ban
quet in honor of the football team,
fcJid sang and cheered just as lustily
for the. worst defeated team In the
school's history as in years when the
wearers of the maroon and gray have
won victories on the gridiron.
The loyaJty of the members in turn
ing out such a large number of gradu
ates last night was lauded by Dr.
Charles B. Fager, the toastmaster, who
extolled the Tech spirit as exhibited
by the Alumni who were prominent in
the parade on Thursday and at the
game as in times past. He declared
that the reverses of this season would
he more than made up next year, and
praised the fighting spirit displayed
by the team on Thanksgiving day.
Coach Whitney related how the de
velopment of the team was held back
In the early part of the season by in
juries to star players, and the inability
to use some good material from last
year's squad, who became ineligible
on account of scholastic standing un
til near the close of the season, when
Injuries to Britsch, Wier and others
again handicapped the development.
He gave great praise to Phillipelli, the
fullback who exhibited unusual pluck
in playing all through the Thanks
giving game with a torn shoulder liga
ment.
Speeches were made by Prof. Wal
lize, Trainer Kelley. Albert Poffenber
ger, 1908, and Prof. Percv L. Grubb.
faculty athletic adviser. The latter
made the gratifying announcement
that the season just past was the most
successful one financially since Tech
was founded, and that sufficient funds
were available to run athletic affairs
for the next year in proper shape.
The prospects for next year were sum
marized in the statement that next
Spring Tech will lose by graduation
but. two of the varsity squqd, Beck,
end. and McKay, tackle, and with the
remaining seasoned material as a nu
cleus, a winning combination should
result.
The election of officers for the asso
ciation resulted in the selection of
James Fltzpatrick. 1913, affectionately
known as "Jimmy tie Fits." as presi
dent, and Frank Peters, 1911. half
back on the 1910 team, as secretary
and treasurer, and the new president

It is not likely that Central and
Greensburg High school elevens will
meet to decide the Pennsylvania
scholastic championship. The local
high school has the best claim to tho
title. No matter how results are
figured out.. Central high's work this
year outshines that of any other
school.
| When all bills for the Thanksgiving
I Day game have been paid, each high
school will receive $3,250 for its
athletic fund. Thursday's crowd was
| the largest in the history of annual
scholastic games. Expenses were
high. The officials alone cost S9O.
However. Prof. Bertram W. Saul
athletic director at Central High who
had charge of arrangements and had
less expense than last year. The pro
gram netted a small profit.

FIRST GAME IN
TRI-CITY SERIES
Independents Meet Lancaster
Tonight on Auditorium
Floor; Rote in Line-up
The Tricity Basketball League series
will open to-night at Chestnut Street
Auditorium. The Independents play
Lancaster.
Only two games are scheduled with
each team on each floor. Lancaster
and York will each play in llarrisburg
twice and Harrlsburg will play two
games in each of the other cities. A
record cf the standing of the teams
will be kept and the team having the
highest standing at the end of the
season will be able to claim the cham
pionship of Central Pennsylvania.
York and Lancaster have already
played two games, each team winning
one.
For the first time this season Rote
will play with the Independents to
night. lie came through the football
season with Central without serious
injury and is expected to show his
usual speed on the basketball floor.
His return will greatly help the
locals in working out their passing j
game, as Rote works very well with I

Small Game Is
Safe Wednesday
Pennsylvania's deer season will open
next Wednesday, December 1, and the
night before the season for all small
game will end so that the woods will
be left free to the hunters of deer,
bears and raccoons. This is the re
sult of changes brought about in the
game laws in the last Legislature and
which, it is believed, will result in
less danger to hunters.
The season for quail, pheasants, :
rabbits, wild turkey and woodcock
will end with November. The deer j
season will run from December 1 to
15, inclusive, one deer having horns
two inches above the hair being allow
ed each hunter. The raccoon season
will run to the end of~the year, but J
the bear season will end with the
deer season.
The black bass, rock bass and mus
calonge season will end with Novem
ber, but the salmon season will not
close until the end of the year.
State officials are making an effort
to secure co-operation of hunters and
fishermen to prevent fires in forests
and the pollution of streams. This
year, thanks partly to wet weather
and to improved organization, the
damage done by forest fires has been
smaller than usual. State reserves
have not suffered as heavily as in
former years.

FEW PASSENGERS
LOST ON RAILROAD
Statement of Accidents by
Public Service Commission
Is Interesting
Of 999 persons killed on the 12C
steam railroads operating in Pennsyl
vania during the year ending June 30
last only 2 passengers were killed in
train accidents; 259 employes lost life
and 105 were killed at grade crossings,
is stated by John P. Dohoney, investi
gator of the Public Service Commis
sion. in his report Just made to the
commission. The remainder of the
fatalities were of trespassers.
Mr. Dohoney notes especially the
showing in regard to passengers, say
ing: "In the transportation of pas
sengers consigned to their care the
railroad companies have performed
this service in a most gratifying and
commendable manner. Of the vast
number of people hauled during the
year by 126 carriers only two passen
gers were killed in a train accident
and in this case there was nothing
shown by investigation to justify the
claim of negligence on the part of
either the company or its employes.
Tliis notable result is doubtless due to
the fact that efficiency tests are svs
tematically applied and that the offi
cials and employes charged with the
duty of operating trains are constantly
reminded of the importance and seri
ousness of their responsibility."
The detail of the report shows that
there were 11,639 accidents on the
steam and electric lines in the year
V? r j° d - 1162 Persons being killed and
11,802 hurt. There was an increase of
eight in fatalities on steam roads, but
a decrease of 185 in injured, while 7
fewer people were killed on trolley
lines and 203 less injured. Of 13
passengers killed on electric lines 10
lost life by jumping or falling from
cars.
The trespassers offer the worst prob
lem. There were 609 killed who ate
classed as having no business on rail
road property. This is 60 per cent, of
the accidents. The grade crossing list
is also noted as catling for strict ob r
servance of precautionary measures by
companies and traveling public.
The number of railroad men killed
was 69 less than in the previous year.
The injured railroad men also showed
a decrease, the figures being 7,111
against 7,337. More brakemen were
killed and injured than of any other
class, the number of fatalities among
them being 80, while 2,020 wore hurt.
Section men bad the next heaviest
loss, 60 fatalities being recorded, with
1.488 injured. Other fatalities bv
• •lasses were: Yardmen, 19; track

and firemen. 10 each; flagmen. J3;

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
ARMY-NAVY PLAY
TWENTIETH GAME
Each Team Has Won Nine Vic
tories; One Tic Score;
Army Leads in Points
By Associated Press
New York, Nov. 27.—The Army and
Navy football teams meet here to-day
In the twentieth contest between
elevens representing the Navy and
Military Academies since the Beries
began in 1890. The service game
will, as in past years, mark the close
of the eastern gridiron season and car
ries additional interest this year owing
to the fact a decisive result will break
the tie existing at the present time
between the Soldier and Sailor elevens.
As the score stands each academy has
won nine games with one ending in a
tie score.
While neither combination has
shown anything remarkable in the
way of football ability this Fall the
usual hard-fought gridiron struggle is
expected since the rivalry is extremely
keen and the players as individuals
and the teams as units throw every
particle of physical power and pig
skin training into the annual clash.
The records of the entire series to
date show that during a period of
more than twenty-five years, the two
academies have been evenly matched.
In total points scored the Army leads
with 202 to the Navy's 139. The Sol
diers also hold the honors of the larg
est score, West Point having defeated
the Sailors 40 to 5 in 1903. To offset
this the Middies have whitewashed
the Army on six occasions while the
Cadets have accomplished this feat
against the Navy but twice.

great sight. The "perishable props"

a scene where she is disgusted with
