Thorpe Now Leads
In Points Scored

NEW YORK. Nov. 5.-The total
grist of touchdowns for Captain
Thorpe, of the Indians, has risen to
fourteen. which makes him and PEN
dleton. of Princeton, the leaders OF
the season in that department. Each
has made fourteen.
The Indians always have been a big
scoring team, but it also is character
istic of them that they are scored on
at a more extensive rate than is gen.
orally the case with a team of so
much strength otherwise It would
appear that there is wider gap be-
tween their strength in offense and
defense than is true of most teams OF
their caliber. However, In their ex-
Isenditure of energy on attack they
bring In the points so plentifuily that
weaknesses Of defense aren't sufficient
to check their victorious marches.
A better idea could be had OF just
how strong the red men are this year
X they played Harvard, Yale or
Princeton. None of these three Is on
the Carlisle schedule. Still the In
dams have a game on for next Satur-
day which Is likely to test their scor-
ing ability better than any prece Ling
game. They are to play the Army.
and owing to the effectiveness of the
Army defense 1t Is seldom that any
opponent thrives much in point MAX
ing even If ii beats the West Pointers.
The Army has as good a pair of
ends as any team In the East and prob
ably the best lineman in the country
--Devore--in breaking through and
sp'lling plays behind the line. and IL
the Indians can rip the Army defense
apart enough to keep up their average
OF 81 points game they must have
an exceptionally powerful attack. In
deed 1t takes a powerful attack to
score half that many points on the
Army by rushing.

WASHINGTON, Nov. SACK
Hegarty, crack left tackle of the
Georgetown university eleven, may
not be ahI to play in the game with
Virginia next Saturday. A painful
injury to his right knee. caused by a
kick In the game with North Caro-

may develop. and If II does he will be
out OF the game for the rest of the
season.

Football Notes
About Big Teams

I'VE expect to meet a much strong
er opponent when We go down to New
Haven" says Captain Wendell, of
Harvard, land ] think Yale will show
good deal more than Princeton
did"
Both Penn and Cornell have made
use of moving picture machines as
aids In football development. Having
moving pictures, Messrs. Smith and
Sharpe now hope 10 produce some
moving players.
News dispatch in a Chicago paper:
The Badgers wiped out the scores
Of previous games today. They de-
feated Chicago 80 to IL In a hard
fought contest. The Cardinal eleven
was the better team" So we should
Judge.
The question arises whether the
revised game with its added down
and increased scrimmage rushing
isn't harder on players than the game
Of the last few years, and consequent
iy whether 1t Is wise to arrange such
hard schedule as Harvard, for In
stance, has. The Harvard schedule
takes in Brown, Princeton, Wander
bilt, Dartmouth and Yale In success
sion.
Coaches are swarming to Hanover
this week to put the big Green team
in shape to battle with the Crimson,
but the following partial list of said
coaches Is of chief interest for the
oddities in nieknames which 1t con-
tains: Spud Ptsnon. Husky Rich,
Jocko Grimm, Farmer Kennedy,

Two players who do much toward
making the Penn State team the
strong aggregation 1t is are. Miller.
the quarterback, and Very. the end.
Both are in the front rank. They
are veterans, play beautifully together
and among other strong points of
their playing is manual skill OF a
high degree In handling the pigskin.
The use of the forward pass Is with
them less of hit or miss play than
with most teams Miller makes the
pass accurately, and II Is doubtful X
there Is another receiver of II as
skilfnl as Very. The latter Is versa
tile. He Is fast at getting down the
field, a strong player in scrimmage
and he also Is efficient at carrying
the ball from scrimmage.
In the vanderbilt-V Virginia game
Skyes the Vanderbilt fullback. was
hurt and is not expected to play In
the Harvard game. Collins and Ship
of the same team were taken out on
account OF injuries. Vanderbilt used

we feel the necessity OF demon
strating that football IL played in
tellfgeptly south OF the Mason and

VHzNCLBLES WIN FROM
hcGLzRE,S FAST TEAM

The last ditch to bring victory to his
team and did much to prevent Word
bringing back the punts for gains.
Hammond and Freeman are not to be
forgotten either in giving credit where
credit Is due
The first scores resulted moro or
less from fukes. Neither team had
what could have been called an adj
vantage until during the latter part
of the second quarter when McGuire's
was hgnung its way UP field from
their own 40-yard line. II was here
/ that Ruskell caught a forward pass
meant for an opposing end and ran
the distance to the goal. Grey kick
ed goal and the Invincibies we're lead
ing. to O.
McGuire's kicked off TO open the
second half and Grey received the ball
and started down the right side line.
Some one tackled him high and tore
the bali from his grasp. The pigshin
bounded along the field toward the
goal until Paschail tearing up the
field caught 1t and dashed over. North
en- kicked goal.
From that time until the last few
minutes of play 1t was anybody's game.
The punters were called upon fire.
quently and gains were few and far
between. However, toward the mid
die OF the last period the Invincibles
worked the ball downfleld by skin
tackle plays aided by recovering sew
eral fumbles. Ruskell sprinted across
the line. but was called back on ac-
count of an off-side play and the play
reopened on the 20-yard line. Word
| took II over on three attempts and the
game was won. Time was called just
after the kick-off.

Telephone service linking together city and country and shore,
is never more appreciated than during the summer months.
While the business man is confined to his desk in the city, the
telephone keeps him in touch with wife and family, though they
may be many miles away, sunmering at some pleasant resort.
During his own vacation the business man relies upon the tele-
phone. He is free from care, for he knows that he can be reached
at one by telephone should important matters require his attention.
At the vacation home also, the telephone proves so convenient
in arranging games and outings with friends and ordering sup
plies from the distant markets.
All this is possible because Bel Telephone service is universal

In a double-header Sunday,
the Reeves baseball club beat the
Washington 6 to 5 in a seven
inning game, and Kinder trim
med the Bankers, score 4 to 0.
1T must be said that Kinder did
not even earn a run. The fea-
ture of the game was the errors.
It did not require the least skill
for our players to get away with
2 in one inning. Gilman, pitch
ing for Kinder, had the Bankers
at his mercy, only four hits be-
ing made off of him.
Toby opened, and his team
mates promptly gave Kinder
three runs; Casey then assumed
the twirling for six rounds, and
the support gave up the other
run.
The management and players
of most towns could use Kinder
ais a tutor. They play ball, and
are gentlemen always.
