1910 FOOTBALL
REVIEW
Captain Gray's Eleven Has Brought
Honor and Ci edit to Penn State.
HAVE' PLAYED CONSISTENT BALL.
Game Has Developed Strong
Material for Next Year's Team.
Mauthe is Only Man to Receive
Serious Injury Throughout En
tire Season.
• Five games won, two lost and one
tied is Penn State's football record
for the 1910 season. The Harris.
burg A C., Carnegie Tech and the
Sterling A. C. were taken over by
overwhelming scores in the order
named at the beginning of the sea
son. Then came the 10 to 0 defeat
at Old Penn on October 22, when
our men fought a plucky battle and
"came back" exceedingly strong to
ward the end of the game.
A week later Villa Nova was able
to hold our eleven to a no-score
struggle on New Beaver Field. St.
Bonaventure wa,s next laid low and
on November 12, the best triumph
of the season was obtained in the
45 to 3 beating handed out to Buck
nell.
Vor the third time in thirteen
games we lost to Pitt in the final.
game_ of the 1910 season; those
who witnessed the encounter are
the only ones whe know how game
ly our lignt team fought and how
little the they deserved to, finish
the struggle eleven points behind
the great Pitt aggregation. The
only conclusion drawn from that
argument is that we must take the
gold-and-blue into more careful,
consideration henceforth, since we
can and will maintain our supremacy
over our rivals in the western end of
the State.'
In the Pitt-State game captain
Alex Gray, "Bully" Watson and
Henny" Weaver played their final
football under the Blue-and-White;
while it is more then probable that
both Piollett and Johnson will be
back in college next fall. "Big
Alex" and Harry have both com
pleted four years of consistent work
on the gircliron for us and "Burly"
just half as many; never have three
harder-working, more valuable play
ers left us in one year and all praise
is dud them. Workman, Riddle
and Keller, who were strong-string
men, have also done their final play
ing on the New Beaver Field gridiron
while Albeit Goedecke will probably
be back again as a condidate for
the 1911 team.
Hallow, Veiy, Barrett, Engle,
Barron and Mlllei all played splen
did football for State during this
past season and should form a
strong nucleus for our next eleven
with Piollett and Johnson, while it
is expected tat Mauthe's ankle will
round into shape king before next
fall and that he will play even bet
ter foatball for us in the future than
he did in 1909.
Wilson, Bcbout, Clark, Rogers,
Quirk, Vogel and Fleming also give
promise of doing things for manag
er Chi's team next season, when it
is hoped that our schedule shall
include some such opponents as
Cornell, Nct \ y and Princeton as well
as Penn'and Pitt, and all of the five
if possible.
Besides head-coach "Jack" Hol
lenback, "Bull" McCleary 'lO and
"Henny" Scholl 'OO were most
valuable on our coaching corps of
the past season. "Mother" Dunn e
'O7, A. C. Read '92, "Fred" Heckel
'9B, "Eddie" Wood ex,-'O2 and
"Dutch" Hermann ex-'lO also gave
their alma mater valuable service
The material this fall was not up to
last fall's standard, the piper's lack
ed the experience, gained through
meeting some of the strongest
teams usually met by State in the
East and still we scored 243 points
to 24 for our oppoents. Already
there is growing determination to do
things in a football way in 1911 such
as were impossible this fall, but
the "Collegian" doffs its hat at
the plucky, clean-cut sons of Penn
State's .1910 football season and
especially to those valiant players.:-
Gray, Weaver and Wation—who
have put every ounce of strength
into the girdiron game for their
alma mater for the last time. Their
names will not soon be forgotten in
the growing college nestled in the
broad valley at. the foot of Mount
Nittany.
Let us return to a concise review
of the past football season:
Oct. 1, State 58, Harrisburg A. C.
0, New Beaver Field; Oct. 8, State
61, Cariegia Tech 0, New Beaver
Field; Oct. 15, State 45, Sterling A.
C. 0, New Beaver Field; Oct. 22,
State 0, U. of Penna. 10, Philadel
phia; Oct. 29, State 0, Villa Nova
0, New Beaver Field; Nov. 5, State
34, St. Bonaventure 0, New Beaver
Field; Nov., 12, State 45, Bucknell
3, New Beaver Field; Nov. 24, State
0, Pitt 11, Pittsburg.
Points scored—State 248; oppo
nents 24. Games won by State-5;
lost-2; tied-1. By playing six
games at home we saw our eleven
work oftener on Beaver Field then
we have ever had the privilege to
do before.
Sophomores Defeat Seniors.
The game between the Seniors
and Sophomores last Friday night
in the Armory marked the opening
of the Interclass basketball series.
The Sophomores walked away with
the game 26-11, the result never be
ing in doubt after the middle of the
first half, when some good floor
work by Rogers and Maybee gave
1913 a safe lead. O'Neill and
Davis for 1911 and Rogers and
Maybee for 1913 were easily the
stars of the game. ,
The managers of the several
teams desire to call attention to. the
fact that up to this time only about
two hundred tickets have been sold.
There should be at least eight hund
red tickets sold out of the student
body here at State. Fellows, it is
supporting a. good cause, for these
interclass games bring forth varsity
material.

It is becoming a well known fact
that whenever State men gather,
that gathering is most likely to be a
feed, and this fact is well illustrat
ed by a recent aff.lir of this kind at
Cornell.
R. V. Mitchell has been making
an experiment on poultry feeding,
and a short time ago,' was desirous
of sectuing expert judgment on his
fouls, as effecting tenderness, flavor,
texture and juiciness. He commun
icated his plans to other State men,
at present at Cornell, and received
their hearty- support. Roasting
was done under careful supervis
ion and the resultant test was a
"Dinner fit for the gads" to use the
pl , rasf. of Par? Work 'lO.
After careful .Ind scientific de
termination of the points included in
the test, the birds were rapidly dis
posed of and throughly enjoyed by
all present.
Those who assisted in the test

and' R. V. Mitchell, ex-special.
A general talk over old times at
Penn State followed and the meet

should not he the last.

DAD (A. J.) ELLIOTT
An Opportunity to Become Acquaint
ed with the Character of - ails
Wonderful Man.
Mr. A. J. Elliott was born near
Gilman, 111., October 18, 1875; he
attended the first Student Con
ference at Lake Geneva, Wis., in
1895. He graduated from Grand
Prairie Seminary in 1896, and from
Northwestern College of Liberal
Arts in 1902. He played left end

f our years and was

during his junior and senior years
and appointed Class Marshal by the
faculty for the exercises of com
mencement week. He was also
elected a member. of Derv, honorary
fraternity of all-round college men

"Dad" Elliot is an "old war
horse" that has been up against the
game and does not talk through his
hat nor his hair. He is a most
practical 'and helpful college man
and any college. man who comes
in contact with him will tind a
full-blooded man who hates evil
and knows, too, how to bring to
bear upon the struggle against evil,
the power of religion.
POPULAR OPINIONS
"Mr. Arthur J. Elliott is one of ,
the most effective and attractive
men in Christian Association work.
A thorough college man, famous
athlete, friend of men, he is unus
ually popular with men. lam glad
he is coming to the Univ i ereiti of
Illinois."—Bishop William F. Mc-
Dowell.
"I heard with much interest Mr.
Elliott's address Sunday afternoon.
I believe he presents- the logic of
the true life for young men. Every
college man ought to hear him."
Prof. B. V. Eyer, (professor of 'En- ,
gineering, Kansas State Agricultural
College).
"Dad" Elliott is a college man
himself, and knows how to deal
with the problems peculiar
, to the
college students. - Having made a
record as an athlete while a student,
he can deal with the physical, as
well as the mental and moral, side
of the life of the college men,"
Manhattan (Kan.) Journal.
"In hearing Mr. Elliott I was im
pressed with his intense earnest
ness, with his knowledge of the
things about which he syeaks, and
with his fearlessness in saying plain
words about evident evils. His ad
dress ought to have great effect on
those who hear him.—J. D. Magee,
former state secretary of lowa.

the Pharsonians have been steadily
at work for the past few weeks on
