$4,000 VIII Witness Game
BY W. J. McBeth.

n TEW HAVEN, CONN, Nov. 49,
With the Eastern champion
ship at stake the prospect of
witnessing one of the most thrilling
and desperately contested battles
in football history was the magnet
that drew $4,000 persons to this lit
tie town today for the thirty third
annual clash between Yale and
Harvard.
1t was a typical college crowd,
recruited from every state in the
nation, that filled the hotel to its
capacity or paraded the gaily dec
grated streets during the hours
preceding the game. Mothers, wives,
sisters and sweethearts of grad
yates and under graduates of both
institutions, together with pretty
college girls, all CARRIED in multi
colors lent brightness to the scene
The day was bright and clear
with little wind-an ideal day for
the blue ribbon event of the 1912
football season. The field was dry

George Burns, Giant Youngster,
Rapidly Developing Into Star

But Burns is a very wise youth. He
is not addicted to a whole lot Of
conversation, but does plenty of
thinking He is in line with Otis
Crandall on talk and it is his retir-
ing disposition that keeps him
somewhat in the background as re-
CARDS dashiness.
Excellent Base Runner.
Burns eXCels at base running. He
is nearly as fast on the bases as
Shafer or Devore, and they are
some speed boys. He has never
reached the coveted 800 mark as a
hitter but he stands up well at the
plate and has a good eye He is
free hitter and is a difficult man to
size up at bat, for he hits to all
fields. An opposing player can not
lay for him with any degree Of
certainty. This is strong point.

Burns is a short, stout youngster,
being five feet seven inches in
height, and weighs 40 pounds. He
is very active. though, and brimful
of ginger. In fact, he is a McGraw

THIS is the fifth of a series of
articles on youngsters who have
made good in the big leagues.)
u GORGE BURNS, one of the
Il Giants second string of out
fielders. has the stuff in him
to make a big league star If given
the opportunity.
What few chances he has had to
show" since he Joined the team
demonstrated that he has class
enough to warrant his being re-
tanned on the clubs roster And
the fact that Manager McGraw has
held on to the youngster Is evil
dence enough of his ability
During the early part of last sea-
son Burns was put in as pinch
hitter quite frequently and made
good nearly every time he was
called on, and for a while has a
most enviable batting record. He
was kept under cover more or less,
by reason OF Becker. who was first
substitute outfielder, showing very
strong when he was put out in CEN
ter at the time SIrpdgrass filled in
at first base, owing to Merl1le hav-
ing felon on his thumb.
Burns, though, will get his
chance later on, and as he is only
21 years old ne can afford to wait.
He was in % games during the sea-
son of 1912. however, and that en-
Z,
world series receipts. Last season
he was given a half share, so he
has no reason to complain of his
short career in the major league.
He is ambitious. though, and would
be the happiest youngster on earth
could he secure a permanent berth
on the regular team.
Often Wait Years For Chance.
Young recruits nowadays some
times have TO warm the bench for
three or four years before they OBJ
tain the chance to show their worth
and Burns. unfortunately, seems to
be doomed to face that unsatisfac-
tory situation. But II is the policy of
McGraw and also Connie Mack to
hold back his Youngsters until they
are exactly ripe and then spring
them Mack's success with Eddie
Collins and the sensational result
Of that plan shows the benefits to
be derived from such wide hand
ling.
Arthur Shafer. Of the Giants. is
in the same boat with Burns, and
had to bide his time, which will be
next season. 1t is possible that
Burns may get his long-waited OPP
portunity, too, next season.
Burns is a crackajack outfielder
already, and covers lots of veldt.
He is a sure catch and has a good
strong arm. He knows. too, where
to throw the ball, something that
certain veterans in the business do
not annear to be any too ant at

him out. He would gladly break a
leg to win this game.
The rest OF the Vanderbilt tenn
looks good enough, as far as ap-
pearances go; but DIR. Owsley Ma
nier, head Of the training depart
ment, says they are a set Of spa
vtned, doddering wrecks and maybe
they are,
Ships ankle is twisted up like
tissue paper-to let them tell 1t.
Collins. however, is in fine trim.
All joking aside, Vanderbilt is not
right--or anywhere near right.
Whether or not the Commodores
are 80 badly shot to pieces that
they will lose to Auburn the after
moons performance will tell. I'm
inclined to like Vanderbilt, even
considering all things.
THE Auburn crowd hasn't any
ante-game excuses The team
has played one whole season to get
ready for this game. AND TT is
READY.
Seldom has any team so braEenly
saved itself for one single struggle
as Auburn has this year, The Ala
bama Polyteohntcs have not played
a really tough team this season.
They started with their own alum
nj. Then they hideously walloped
Mercer. Then they got away with
Florida. but the FIoridians scored
10 points. The next Saturday they
rolled up 27 points on Clemson, but
we're scored on themselves to the
extent OF points. Then came the
game with Mississippi A. & M,
which Auburn won by q touoh-
down. The next Saturday Auburn
rolled up az points on Tech but
we're acored on once. The follow
ing Saturday came the game with
l.. s. u, which Auburn won by
single touchdown.
This is a moderately good sched-
ule, but not by any means a hard
one. The Auburn team was forced
to get right but once this season
and that was for today's game.
Apparently Auburn must have a
lot that hasn't been turned loose
yet--in plays. in tricks and in re-
serve strength and power
Take this as certain fact:
Unless Auburn plays better to-
day than ever before this season
Vanderbilt will win.
That much is certain.
SO is the fact that the Auburnites
plan confidently to turn loose more
than they have before this season
and more than they ever turned
loose in their lives.
THE weather here today Is fair
and warm. Everything has
combined to make today's game a
big drawing card
We shall soon know how the peo-
pie OF this burg respond. My own
opinion is that after today's game
Vanderbilt and Auburn Will have
had enough of this town and that
they will be ready to transfer the
game to Atlanta, where it really
belongs,
