WARREN UNIVERsIrY GAME
IL VIII Positively Come on at Front ant
Union Streets on Saturday Next.


Union Streets on Saturday Next.
If there ever was any doubt about
the Warren Athletic Club and the Uni
versity Of Pennsylvania coming together
on the football field at Front and Union
streets that doubt was removed to-day
when a communication was received by
DIR. j. W. Crumbaugh, stating that the
Varsity team would surely be here on
Saturday next. The game will be played
at the Front and Union street grounds
and will be called at 3 o'clock, sharp.
There has been great deal of specu-
lation over this game and the question
has been asked on all sides, what pres
sure was brought to bear on the Phila-
delphians to induce them to come to
Wilmington? 1t has been a problem to
the average person, and it will no doubt
be Of interest to the public how the
Warren Club secured cinch on their
competitors and induced the University
men to play them in this city. Much of
the credit is due to DR.. j. w. Crum-
baugh, who has taken great interest in
the Warren Club this year, and who has
been looking for the opportunity to line
his men up against first-class team in
order to show the home eleven the i'm
portant elements of scientific football.
DIR. Crumbaugh is graduate of the
medical department of the University
Of Pennsylvania, and also of .ue collie
giate department. He is a personal
friend of DIR. White, and there is a
strong friendship existing between the
Wilmington physician and Provost
Pepper, and it is with the sanction of
the faculty that the eleven have decided
to come to this city, although the visit
could have been made without that APP
proval, q college team reserving such u
privilege TO themselves,
The following is list of players who
will line up against the Warren Club:
UNIVERSITY. WARREN
Newton. ......... left end. .Kenneally
Reese. ...left tackle. Green
Elser. ......... left guard. Glacier

McWhorter. :. right tackle. ...... Hanley
Simmons. ... right end. Mack
Williams. Quarter back -. Constable
osgood. right hall. back. Mccartney
knipe. left half-back .....Wilson

The above teams are subject to what
ever changes the managers deem it ex-
pedient to make, but as far as known
this arrangement of the players will
stand with few possible exceptions.

letic Club and the Young Mems Chris
