Best Football Came of the Year to Be Played Here Tomorrow Between Tech and Lebanon
Stop! Look! Tech Will
Play Lebanon Tomorrow
Hoop-la! Tech, champion of Penn
sylvania.—perhaps, will show ijarris
burg a real battle tomorrow, do not
forget if. to-morrow,' beginning at
38.30 in the afternoon, with no less a
foe than Lebanon High, whose chal
lenge came buzzing over the wire to
Athletic Manager Percy Grubb, Just
at the moment when he thought the
season was over.
Tho challenge stirred the huge es
tablishment to its foundations for
Lebanon is the most formidable
bunch that Tech has encountered and
its victory over Steelton was aply a
bit less decided than Tech's. She
won from George Cockill. 63-0.
Furthermore she trimmed the strong
Williamsport team yesterday, 20-0,
and to-day she disputes the claim of
Harrisburg to being state champion.
At nine o'clock this morning Mr.
Srubb had made final arrangements
and the Tech prodigies began to
sharpen their cleats preparatory for
tile greatest battle of the year, for
Lebanon has been vastly strengthen
ed and Improved by the combined
coaching of three extraordinarily wise
football men.
The head coach is Park Wilder, who
has a record for turning out champs,
but for two weeks now he has had the
help of a phenom in the person of
Hoby Light, famous all over the

TECH VICTORIOUS
OVER STEELTON
Turkey Day Battle Saw Three
Thousand Brave the Rain
and Stiek to the End
A cold driving rain saluted near
ly three thousand enthusiastic liar
risburgers yesterday when time
came for the annual Turkey Day
football battle between Tech and
Steelton High, but like George
Cockill's warriors, they were game
and few left before the curtain rang
down with Tech scoring 67 points to
Steelton's nothing. All prophecies
concerning the bravery and endur
ance of Steelton were verified, for
Tech discovered very shortly that
she must exert herself to break up
Cockill's Hying wedge.
Doggedly, persistently, the Steel
ton lads, outclassed, to be sure, went
at the job, led by the doughty cap
tain, Bill Wueschinski, and Manager
"Shorty", Sharoslcy, who did their
part in holding back the mighty foe.
But Tech being superior to any foot
ball club seen here this year, it was
no great task for her to buck up and
keep the ball on Steelton's territory
practically all through the four quar
ters.
Working together like so many
units of machinery the gigantic Beck
and the indominatable Tony Wils
bach, who would rather piay foot
ball than eat turkey, tore through
with their usual precision, while the
Tech ends, regardless of bad turf,
scooted down on the foe, choking
off the effort. From Captain Ebner,
on down, the Tech machinery work
ed with its accustomed efficiency, but
when victory was assured the team
finished with many a substitute.

FRIDAY EVENING.
was a Lebanon High School boy and
when he came back from University
of Pennsylvania. It was his ambition
to brace up his old alma mater so
that she could put up an equal battle
against Harrisburg. In addition to
Light, the team has had the services
of Del Pratt, a veteran coach, too,
and the progress made under these
masters is said to be wonderful. .
The news electrtfied Tech and
everybody began to hustle to get out
programs, tickets and to advertise
the game. The chorus of singers, the
jazz band, and all the supernumary
activities were put in motion, for all
hands believe this will be the game
that hungry Harrisburg is looking
for. Lebanon has vanquished all
high schools in the state that have
played her except Tech.
Encouraged by this opportunity to
prove their championship it is pro
posed now by the Tech athletic com
mittee to arrange a good game for
the following Saturday, a game with
some well-known bunch who will be
able to put up a real battle. The flu
prevented Tech from displaying her
talents and earning honestly a pretty
penny for athletic work, so that she
is entitled to support even though
the season is supposed to be over.
The Lebanon management over the
wire this morning pledged to bring a
band and a big company of rooters.
Jack Dempsey Hooted
For Poor Showing
Against Billy Miske
After giving Battling Levinski the
knockout, decimating Fred 1' ulton
i and dispatching Porky Flynn, six
thousand fans went to see Jack
Dempsey put to sleep Billy Miske at
the Olympic in Philadelphia, but
they were disappointed. Half the
spectators left before the bout wife
over and they did not hesitate to rate
Dempsey a "bloomer." Neither boxer
was ever in danger.
The style of fighting was produc
tive of such littje action that the
crowd began to hoot at the conclu
sion of the third round. Dempsey,
! therefore, rushed from his corner in
i the fourth with extended left and
i twice connected With Miske's jaw.
! Miske came back with a right to the
> ear and then, on the break, landed
i his right on Dempsey's jaw. The lat-
I ter took the whiphand for the rest
I of the round, his left landing with
j good effect.and driving Miske to the
I ropes.
i In the fifth round Dempsey was all
over his opponetn, but was unable to
| get through his defense with the
j slashing blow that would end the
| battle. He shot over a left to the
! jaw and then, crossed the right. The
| blow had power, but landed high.
I Miske jarred to toes and
Dempsey followed. with a storm of
blows, sending his opponent back to
the ropes. Dempsey was boring in,
using all his power at this stage and
displaying his superiority as a
fighter.
Turkey Flies High but
Is Present on Tables;
Services in Churches
The turkey was carved yesterday,
and the people of Harrisburg showed
in various ways their thankfulness for
the peace of the world, the health of
their families, or uny other of the
many things for which each was truly
grateful. Although turkey, figurative
ly, was flying high for a bird with
short wings, yet literally it was
present and was the especial guest of
honor on very many tables of homes
in the city.
The day was taken over with many
activities. Among the most important
of these were prayer services in the
churches in the morning. Of par
ticular interest were the addresses of
Captain Douglas E. Dismukes and,
Captain Wilbur S. Barker. Captain
I Dismukes, who was in command* of
I the U. S. S. Mount Vernon when tor-
I pedoed off the Irish coast, spoke at
the morning service in the Market
Square Presbyterian Church, telling
of his experiences. Captain Barker
spoke at the Stevens Memorial M. E.
Church, making an interesting ad
dress. , , ,
Other events of the day which oc
cupied the attention of persons In this
city, were the community singing in
the rotunda of the Capitol and the
football games. In the evening many
| persons went to the theaters, which
I were filled to capacity.

Raycroft Says Peace Will
Not Interfere With Sports
Washington, Nov. 29. —Inten-
sive training along athletic lines
to foster the fighting spirit among
the soldiers encamped in this
countiy will be replaced by re
creational sports, according to Dr.
Joseph E. Raycroft, head of the
Athletic Division of the War De
mrtment Commission on Train
ing Camp Activities.*
In a telegram sent to each of
the Training Camp Commission's
athletic directors in the various
cantonments, Dr. Raycroft an
nounced the change of policy. He
believes that lessening of the mil
itary tension caused by the sign
ing of the armistice with Ger
many, and the mustering out in
the near future of thousands of
soldiers in American camps, call
for less emphasis on the training
value of athletics in the army and
an increased emphasis upon their
contribution of the development
and maintenance of morale.
TIITI' Is a natural lack of stim
ulus for the individual soldier to
keep himself physically fit for
combat. He knows that he has
no chance to got into the fight
ing. and realizes that it is only
a matter of weeks or months be
fore. he is finajly mustered out
of the service to return to civil
ian life. .
This is a dangerous stage, ac
cording to experts on the physical
training of soldiers.
Under present conditions the
emphasis in the athletic work
should be upon the effort to in
crease the amount of competitive
work along all lines within the
camp, and outside the camp. The
morale of the men, it was de
clared, must be maintained, and
nothing can dispel the "glooms"
during the period of waiting bet
ter than healthy athletic games.

The premier, target-shooting event
of months takes place to-morrow at
tho splendid Concwago range where
scores of Pennsylvania railroad men
belonging to the Keystone Ride Club
will try their skill under regular
Army system. Plans were completed
to-day for the various squads to
reach the great range as early as 9
o'clock and others will follow dur
ing the day, shooting ceasing when
it becomes too dark for accuracy.
Established three years ago by the
Pennsy men who are ever In tho van
of progress, this organization is now
one of the six-cylinder affairs of the
company, and time will come when
more and more of these ranges,flre
built In order thot the employes may
perfect themselves In the useful art
and also have diversion.
Officials of tho road and manv
guests will accompany the marksmen
and they will witness genuine up-to

stonors use the Krng-Jorgson and ihe
Springfield rifle, both light weapons,
with extraordinary sighting facili

those precious arms right along-ide

Golf Clubs Responded
Generously to Request
From Training Camps
Washington, Nov. 2D. —Golfers
throughout the country have re
sponded nobly to the appeal of the
United States Golf Association for
donations of clubs, balls and bugs for
the use of soldiers in the various
cantonments. According to officials
of the War Department Commission
on Training Camp Acitities, who
have charge of the distribution of
golf paraphernalia to the soldiers,
approximately three thousand golf
clubs, with a corresponding as
sortment of balls and bags, have
been received fo date.
Devotees of the game in Cleve
land, Ohio, have been particularly
generous in their responses to the
Golf Association's appeal. H. H.
Bandy, secretary of the Cleveland
District Golf Association, told the
training cump commission that more
than one thousand clubs and other
material have been donated by gol
fers of the Ohio city. Ohio It is fur
ther supplemented this substantial
contribution. A communication from
G. It. Pulford, of Toledo, states that
approximately five hundred clubs,
balls and bags were ready for ship
ment from that city.
The sticks are arranged by the
country clubs in sets consisting of a
driver, brassie, mid-iron and putter
and forwarded with a dozen balls to
camps as directed by the training
camp commission.
That the mashic is the most pop
ular golf club is the opinion of Dr.
W. S. Harhen, of Washington, who
is vice-president of the United
States Golf Association. Drivers,
brassies, mid-irons and putters have
been sent to camps with great gen
erosity but mushies have not been
forthcoming.
Dr. Harben, who originated this
plan of giving the enlisted man an
opportunity to practice swings at odd
moments wherever there happens to
be a stretch of convenient country,
says that this settles the question
which has been argued so often at
the nineteenth hole exclusively.
Hereafter it will be assumed that to
the majority of golf enthusiasts, the
masliie is the hardest club to part
with.
