Smith was taken out and Simons put
in. Capt. Cope praised the work of all
the subs most highly, and especially
mentioned Mitchell. who was at right
tackle.
Mitchell was the most agreeable sur
prise on the team, and without a doubt
was one of the best ground gamers to
get the bail. 1t would not be amiss in
future selections to have Mitchell in
mind, for no better exhibition has been
made on the local gridiron than that
which he put up. He never faltered
when handed the ball to hurdle through
center, and though tackled heavily a
number of times. he gained several
yards before being downed.
"Old Man" Futch played like Grand
fathers clock-just as regular as the
tick. and always on time This same
Futch is one of the most unique foot
ball characters in the country and is
perhaps, the only bald-headed man now
playing the game.
Rosster didn't have enough real hard
work to warm him up, but when he
was given the ball he scattered the
Jacksonvil1es like chaff.
1t was a game in which every mem
Der of the team distinguished himself
1t was a game particularly free from
dirty play, and only one penalty was
imposed, one of ten yards against Sa-
vannah for holding.

Mitchell secures the ball on bad FUN

CORNELL WAS EASY
FOR PENNSYLVANIA
Cornell POwerIess to Hold the Penn
syIvania Rush.


Philadelphia, Nov. 26.-Pennsylvania
wound up her football season of dis
appointment to-day by defeating Cor
nell by the overwhelming score Of AZ
to 0.
1t was the best game that the red
and blue have played this fall. Cor
nell, except for the first five minutes
of play, was powerless to stop the at
tack. and her efforts to gain ground
were equally futile. AS the game pro-
crossed. the Quaker attack grew more
fierce. while Cornelrs defense was made
to appear correspondingly weak.
After rolling up twelve points in the
first half, the Pennsylvania eleven
came back in the second half and piled
up thirty more. Only twice during
the game We're the Ithaca boys able to
hold Pennsylvania for DOWNS and they
gained their distance only five times
and this nearly all by fake plays.
There was a flash of fire in Cornell 8
opening play, but after losing the ball
on a miserable tumble, when well
within the Quakers' territory, the
spark seemed to suddenly disappear.
Benefits work at full back and Null
fords playing at quarter was particu-
larly brilliant. Several times the big
full back carried four or five Cornell
players on his back for from five to
fifteen yards before he could be
thrown

The sizzling November weather made
the blood tingle like good wine out at
Bolton Street Park yesterday after
noon, but the magnificent exhibition of
football put up by the blue and white
team rushed the claret through the
veins in riot of enthusiasm, and the
assembled thousands cheered until the
victorious acclaim was heard blocks
away.
No better day for a contest between
football elevens could have been or
dered. There was crispness in the
air that was perhaps, a little biting to
the thin-blooded. but to those fired
with the enthusiasm, the occasion and
circumstances provoked. it was mild
as that of tropic Chimes. The rains
that fell the night before filled many
with apprehension during the early
morning hours, but when the sun rose
on a cloudless sky, and there was just
enough fizz in the atmosphere to make
one feel all the fire of a healthy ma
ture, the afternoons contest was look
ed forward to as the event of the

MORE THAN 10 MILES
WALTHOUR WILL HAVE To RIDE
AGAINST THE HORSES.
ON OUTSIDE OF TRACK
CHAMPION PACE FOLLOWER WILL
HAVE TO WORK HARD.

President Hull of Savannah Racing
Association Has Decided That
Man Behind the Motor Must Get a
Little the Worst of the Race That
VIII Take Place at the Fair
Grounds TO-mOrrOw-Mr. Hull
Will Start First Horse on mt $3.50
O'clOck-Fresh Runner Every Half
Mile.
1t has been decided to have Bobbie
Walthour ride on the outside of the
track in his race at the Fair Grounds
tomorrow afternoon for ten miles with
the ten fastest running horses now
quartered there.
Under these circumstances the cham
pion pace follower does not care to
wager any large sum that he will be
able to outsprint the ponies. He will
have to ride more than ten miles on the
outside of the track, and the horses
will start off with this advantage. But
Bob is in splendid shape and is still
confident that he will be able to win,
although the margin promises to be a
narrow one.
Bobbie spent Thanksgiving with his
wife in Atlanta, and will not return to
Savannah until tomorrow morning. He
will work out a few miles on the Coli
scum track during the morning, and
Will be in good shape when he starts
to circle the track at the Fair Grounds
ten times. The horses are all running
IN splendid form, and the race prom
ises to be the most exciting of the
sort ever pulled off in Savannah. The
popular pace follower has never tackled
the ponies here and his admirers are
anxious to see Just what he can do on
the dirt track.
Gussie Lawson, the Terrible Swede,"
says that if Bobbie can keep up with
Candy the horses will not be able to
win single mile of the ten. That
motor has never made such fast time
before" said Lawson, in telling what
sort of pace he would be able to fur
nish Walthour 'Why, at this stage
of the game ] can make that machine
go faster than Bobbie could ride on
the fastest track in the world.
why there amt no limit to the
speed that l can yet up on Candy now,
and if those horses think they are 60
ing to play with us just because we've
got to cover more ground, they are
way off in their calculations. It's true
miles without stopping, and that the
horses starts fresh every half mile
but that don't count for much if Bob
bell just tack on to the motor when
throw it wide Open"
President Hull of the Racing Asso-
citation has been assured by Manager
Kidder of the Savannah Electric Com
pany that there will be plenty of cars
and that quick schedule will be run
to the Fair Grounds. President Hull
announces that there will be no extra
charge for seats in the grandstand and
that the race will start promptly at
$3.50 O'Clock. 1t is promised that there
will be no delays and that Walthour
and the first horse will get off at the
hour named.
1t is expected that large crowd will
witness the race, and nothing has been
left undonc to make it a distinct sue
cess. AS has already been stated, Wal
thour, Munro and Lawson will leave
after the race for New York, where
they will ride in the six-day race in
Madison Square Garden.
