Every man will be able to take his regular place in the lineup ■ to-morrow. The game is won as far as Cen : tral's student body and principal are ' concerned. Last week Professor Dibble stated that he was a firm be ■ liever in psychology and if the stu > dents were determined to win they would—and they did. Now for some tnore psychology—"the last game Central will ever play," as Cheer Leader Pulas said, "Must be a glor ious climax to Central's long rec ■ ord of victories." The team will re . turn to Harrisburg Thursday at 1.30 ; and will be met at the station by the : students and escorted to the island.

No football fan will worry about cold weather as long as it is clear. A wet field would mar the biggest game of the year. Both Central and Tech worked hard to-day away from the madden ing throngs. At Carlisle Coach Paul Smith assisted by Coach Harris drill ed the Central players in new things. Tech's forces were mobilized at Dauphin. What happened there is known only to Coach Ryan and of ficials. Penn-State Is up against a hard proposition to-morrow. Pitt will en tertain the Bellfonte contingent. If Pitt is beaten Penn-State will have some claim on championship honors. "Red" Calhoun is again out with the announcement that he will quit the baseball game. He is a valuable man in the national sport, and also a good man in secret service work. He has won honors in baseball and If he quits will retire with a good record. Here is what Prof. P. L. Grubb, athletic director at Technical High school said this morning before he left for Dauphin to watch the Ma roon squad at work: "The Tech team is in perfect physical condition with the exception of Wilsbach who has developed a stone .bruise pn his right foot. This may prevent him from starting the game. Tech has the "Beat BuckneH" Is Cry of Dickinson Students Carlisle, Nov. 28.—While the cheering squad sounded the slogan, "beat Bucknell," the Dickinson team went through another stiff workout in preparation for the Thanksgiving game. Coach Dunn spent a consid erable period in work to co-ordinate the efforts of the line. The star backfield of Swope, Goldstein. Rock well and Young is intact for the final game. In spite of the long layoff since the last game the men are in good condition. The final scrimmage of the year was staged last night with regulars tearing the reserves wide open in thtii offensive plays and making a strong defensive stand. In the final minutes of practice a secret session was held to perfect the plays to be used for the first time Thursday. How Teams Will Start Game at Island Park TECH CENTRAL Bell. le. Gohn, le.

Harrisburg will not want for a Thanksgiving basketball attraction. The Garnet five of Philadelphia will be here for the first of a series of games. This year the Garnets are ex ceptionally strong, so is Harrisburg and an interesting game is promised. Prof. Dibble, principal at Central High school gave the Central varsity squad a talk yesterday and warned them against over confidence. He said they must not think that be cause they defeated Steelton, they would have as little trouble with Tech. He said, "to beat Tech you will have to work at least twice as hard as against Steelton." Both Mr. Dibble and Coach Smith say the last Steel ton game was the only battle in which the team did half what they were able to do. The principal's part ing words of advice were: "Do not be overconfident. Fight from the first, second and to the last. Get the Jump; tackle low and hard. When you have the ball run until you are thrown and when giving interference leave your feet." Fred Fulton, the Minnesota heavy weight, won a technical knockout over Gunboat Smith in the seventh round of their scheduled ten-round fight at Minneapolis last night when Smith's seconds tossed in a sponge to save him from further punishment.

TECH TEAM AT D RETURNS AT NOON TO-MORROW; BIG CHEE (From Tech Camp) A squad of twenty Technical High | school football warriors lert last evening for where they! will remain until Thursday noon. J The Maroon players will be taken j away from the talk of the game, and ' signal practice and long hikes Willi be the order. Picking a winner seems! to be about fifty-fifty. While Tech 1 has the better record for the season, I the strong comeback staged by Cen- j tral against Steelton has raised the! hopes of the Blue and Gray follow- ■ ers. It is expected that both elevens will score. Both teams have stars who are sure to scintillate. Bothe teams have also scored in each of the eight! games played this season, and to morrow's contest will not likely be a no-score game as was played last year. The Central squad is decidedly stronger on the offensive than de fense. The Blue and Gray line has been crossed in six of the eight games, so that Tech stands good I chances of at least scoring. In half of its eight games Tech has beenl tallied upon. With chances even as I to the probable winner, chances are more than even that there will be; scoring on both sides. It looks like ! the winner will be the team that will show the stronger defense. Cheering Big- Feature Cheering will be one of the big features. Each school will be given time alternately to show the list of cheers and songs on the program. Both schools will introduce new parodies. Tech will occupy the west ern bleachers with Central on the east side.. The usual numbering of the play ers will bo followed. Tech has the odd numerals, and Captain "Ted" Lloyd will wear Number one. Cap tain Frank will carry number two. With the announcement at Central that there will not be a team next year, comes the apparent fact that the last Thanksgiving contest be tween the two local schools is being W AHave j7ou\\ § /smoked the famous\ % I f-toasted ll \ o n Guaranteed by S\S /O, Jrwjt^iea+<' _______ i staged. While Harrisburg has a'- ways taken kindly to all branches of sports, this one contest drew more spectators than any other single event. Residents in this city who did not attend another gridiron game during the year, were always sure to turn out for the'final honors, and each one always had a favorite. It is a safe bet that no other sbholastic contest in this section of the state drew the crowd that attended the Harrisburg Central-Tech game. No matter who wins, or who is the loser to-morrow, there is one thing sure. When the big crowd wends it sway back over the Sus quehanna at the final whistle there will be a tinge of sadness in the hearts of each one that the final game has ended. While there is talk of substituting Steelton for the annual affair, no other teams could quite afford the rivalry as occasioned by the meeting of Tech and Central.
