TECH IS ONCE MORE WITHOUT GAME--MASTEN PARK FEARS DEFEAT-FRIDAY SHOW BILL MASTEN REFUSES TO PLAY HERE Glaim Injury to Players Pre vents a Regular Lineup; After Massillon When Tech Iligh won from Erie High Saturday, the local aggregation evidently killed two birds with one stone. For Erie High came forth with a number of alibis, and in the meantime Masten Park also got word from Erie through the press of the strength of the Tcch team, which no doubt accounts for the brief mes sage yesterday afternoon cancelling the game for Saturday with the Buffalo High school team. Injuries in the Thanksgiving game was the reason assigned. The ques tion Tech does not understand is why the cancellation was not made directly after the Thanksgiving game instead of yesterday. While Masten i Park did not lose a game, it is a I sure thing that they would have I been beaten by 4 0 points by Tech. I Chances are they are not so good as j Eric if comparative scores count. Erie beat Dunkirk by a larger | score than Masten Park. Erie trim med Lafayette 33 to 13 while the M. P. score was 10 to 6.' The Masten record does not compare with that made by Tech. The Maroon team has a record that will surpass any thing in the country and can afford to rest on its laurels. In nine games] Masten Park scored 255 points to j their opponents' 12. After Massillon In the meantime Percy Grubb has hopes of landing: Massillon High, whom Seott High beat 10 to 6. They would sive Tech a Rood game with out a doubt and Tech would try to make a better showing than 10 to ti, the Seott High score. Not being able to get Seott to play, Tech could eliminate the Toledonns by this method. Definite announcements are expected late to-day. If Massillon declines. Tech will have played its last game for the 1919 season, and can well afford to rest on its laurels already won. Strong Schedule For Yale Cage Team After Holidays Jirw Haven, Conn., Dec. 2.

Penn Football Stars Quit; Are Now Professionals 7?v Associated Press Philadelphia, Dec. 2.-—l'ard Pearce and Ben Derr, University of Pennsyl vania football stars, announced their intention of leaving college this week. Moth were declared ineligible by Coach Folwell for the Thanksgiving Day game with Cornell last Thursday and It was stated that investigation showed both men had taken part in professional athletics. Pearce is said to have admitted to a classmate at the university that he had played baseball last year bo h with the Three I league and the Chi cago Nationals and that he still is a. member of the Chicago team. lie Is said to have signed a contract with the Cubs toward the end of the. sea son. Derr participated in a profes sional football game at Akron, Ohio, several weeks ago. Here's something good to draw to. You can try everything in the cigar man's show case, but you'll only find one cigar with that Million Dollar Flavor—that's Knull's Ambrosia Cigars Increasing labor costs have forced the price to Bc—2 for 15c, but you can't buy a more sat isfying smoke at any price. Try one to-day— at any cigar stand. Chas. L. Boak Wnker of linull' AmlroMln TUESDAY EVENING* FOOTBALL IS IN GREAT DANGER Professionals Are Making Rig Inroads in College Game Chicago, Dec. 2. With profes sional football taking a firm hold on the public and indications pointing to the formation of a league simi lar to baseball, college authorities will have to take drastic action in the near future to save it game which belongs distinctly to the edu cational institutions. If professional football has as much success next fall as it enjoyed during the ISI9 season, the colleges will be mere feeding grounds for the professional leagues. Some of the players may be induced to leave col lege before Iheir careers are ended to play professional football and many promising high school players will join the "pro" ranks instead of going to some university or college. Those in charge of the profes, sional teams nre in position to offer inductments which are tempting to the average football players. A ma jority of the athletes come from poor families. In a number of cases they work their way through school and earn all the money possible. In this manner they work out their tuition, but there is seldom any loose change left over. When a student develops into a football star managers of the "pro" teams do not hesitate to offer him as high as SSOO to play one game. This is tempting. The player is told he can be played under an as sumed name and that no one will ever discover his identity. In the East it is a common occur rence for members of certain teams to play collegiate games on Satur day and then hop a rattler to play with one of the professional teams in Ohio on Sunday. A little investigation by the West ern conference would not do any harm. With opportunities present ing themselves for football players to make money, a leading athletic man in the Central West is of the opinion the faculty committee should per mit college men to play summer baseball for money, but draw a sharp line on professional football. He asserted the committee will have to do one or the other. Football is a game which belongs strictly to colleges. This is the first year, with a few exceptions, it has been played with any degree of suc cess outside of the educational in stitutions. If the "pro" gridiron sport continues to flourish the col lege game will suffer accordingly. fiOWLING BAPTIST CHURCH LEAGUE AGOGA WHITES Bollinger ... 138 119 120 — 377 Conrad 135 150 136 421 Germer 160 141 111— 421 Shaner 115 96 103— 314 Bennett 163 142 143 448 Totals .... 717 648 613—1972 TRIANGLE Shoemaker . 95 151 109— 355 Rauchs 113 146 110— 369 Murry 88 203 131— 422 Finchell 111 114 137 362 Mailey 13] L 143 108 — 382 Totals 538 757 595—1890 AGOGA BLUES Deal 140 125 134 — 399 Sible 127 127 128— 382 Miller 136 109 96 342 Shaner 112 94 153 359 Shaffer 128 121 153 402 Totals 643 576 664—1883 CRESCENTS Urich 122 126 149 397 J.

Of course there will be others but these three stars are particularly known to local fans. They have been doing good work this season. D ick Rnuch, a Harrisburger, is spok en of as one of the probabilities for captain. His defensive play at guard this season has been one of the P enn State sensations; Clarence Beck, the former Tech star, was a little late in getting himself in shape but what he was called to do, brought the results. Bob Hlggins, former Peddle star, captain and right end on Hugo Bezdck's team was the unani mous choice for All A. E. F. end, and including the Thanksgiving day game played sixteen games. JIM THORPE IS CANTON'S WINNER Kicks Field Goal That Gives His Team Professional Title Canton, 0., I>ec. 2. —■ For the second time since 1916, when they lifted the national professional foot ball title from the Tigers of Mas sillon, Jim Thorpe and his Bulldogs of Canton made successful defense of the honor in the final game of the season, defeating the star studded Massillon eleven, 3 to 0. Yhorpe kicked a placement goal from the 4 0-yard line in the third period of play for the only points of the game. It was the second victory for Canton over Massillon this season, the first game going to the Bulldogs by a score of 23 to 0. Faithful to announcements, Mas sillon sent a team of college veter ans against the champions, a team that shaded Canton on general play in the first half, but which was sad ly outplayed on straight football in the fourth period, especially. The losers, however, did not call upon the services of Pennsylvania Uni versity or Penn State gridders. It was the last performance of the Bulldogs for 1919 as the man agement. decided to cancel the se ries with Cleveland, due to that team's defeat by Massillon Thanks giving. Canton went through the campaign undefeated, being tied by Hammond in the first meeting, but defeating the Westerners in the sec ond meeting by one touchdown. Thorpe Is Big Star Thorpe again distinguished him self in the third quarter. Canton put the ball in play on her 15-yard line, after Gougler's low placement kick had been covered by a Bull dog. Thorpe then dropped back to his 5-yard line from where he punt ed 75 yards, over Conn's head, the ball rolling over Massillon's goal line, a total distance of 95 yards. Canton's greatest offense was inaug urated immediately after the start of the fourth quarter. Getting pos session of the ball on their 28-yard line, the champions advanced it to Massillon's 25-yard Itne, where they were penalized 15 for holding, forc ing Devlin to attempt a drop kick.

HARVARD MAY PLAY IN WEST Question Comes Up Tonight at Meeting of Officials; Players Scattered By Associated Press Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 2. Whether the Harvard University football team will go to the Pacific coast to meet a western college eleven will be decided to-nlglit at a meeting of the athletic committee of the university. Officials had be fore them to-day a sheaf of tele grams requesting the crimson team to make the trip, including a mes sage announcing that a formal in vitation to the Harvard team to play in Pasadena at the carnival of roses tournament on New Year's day was on the way. The mayor of Dos An geles joined in the request of a tele gram to Dean Le Barron R. Brlggs, chairman of the Harvard Athletic Committee, and other messages said Governor Stephens of California, was forwarding an Invitation in be half of the state. Favor Acceptance Opinion at Harvard appeared to favor acceptance. The players were < almost generally anxious to go; the athletic committee, it was said, 'au thoritatively felt that much good might come of the interseetlonal game and the faculty attitude alone remained in doubt. With a two weeks Christmas holiday already ar ranged for this year, an objection which has arisen to previous pro posals was believed to be eliminated its the trip would not keep the play ers away from their eiasses longer than the recess period. May lie Called Buck The Harvard team which went through the season without defeat and closed with its 10 to 3 victory over Yale, has been disbanded, its coaching corps has scattered, and partial reconstruction would be nec essary. Athletic authorities at Cam bridge, however, said to-day that they felt the eleven could be brought back to playing trim, nlthough pre parations might be handicapped by unfavorable weather conditions rtd lack of opportunity for practice. DEER HUNTERS | ARE IN LUCK Reports From Gettysburg In dicate a Successful First Day (•etlynburg, Pa., December 2.—Deer hunters on the Adams county slde'ofj South Mountains, have reported the | killing of five deer on the first day j of the season. Two of these were 1 killed by members of camps, the oth- ! er three by individual hunters, who I bagged their game almost as soon as it was light enough to see the ani- j mals coming through the brushes.
