HOLT'S POINT WINS
GAME FOR "SCOTS"
Jersey A. c. Eliminated from
Cup Tie by Locals 10
Victory.
NEXT OPPONENTS

Eddie Hollis point tailed from a
penalty kick gave the Scottish
Americans the point which defeated
the Jersey A c.. j goal to 0, at West
Side Park, Jersey City, yesterday aft
ernoon and incidentally eliminated the
Joiseys from further competition in
the national challenge round cup
competition. The game marked the
second clash between the eleVens in
the second round
The teams battled a week ago, but
snow interfered with the struggle,
and the fray was called before the
limit. The Scots at that time were
in the lead, and through their victory
yesterday it was evident that they
were superior to the Jersey A. c.
by a slight margin. The Jerseys,
however, put up a fine exhibition and
went through almost the entire final
half with ten men on the field.
Smith, their centre halfhack, col
lided with Winston, of the Scots,
which forced the former to retire
from the game. The Scets had the
better of play in the second half
During a hard scrimmage in front
of the Jersey goal, following a corner
kick, Tommy Fisher struck the ball
with his arm and the Scots were
awarded a penalty kick, on which
Holt made good with a point. Smith
retired from the game after the goal
was scored. The Scottish-Americans
will meet the Victor F. c., of Phila-
delphia, in the third round at Harri
son Oval Harrison, some time in
February.

Pitt Defends Reputation
of Pittsburgh Football

Give Pittsburgh University clean
bill Of health The 125-year-old insti-
tuition deserves the verdict. The wild
rumors that have been circulated to
the effect that there was profession
alism in the ranks of Pitts crack
football team were nailed to the mast
today by X. e. Davis, graduate man
ager of athletics at the Smoky City
university.
Acting on a suggestion recently
made in this column that where
there was so much smoke there
ought to be an explanation" Grad
uate Manager Davis has irretutably
shown the smoke to have come from
Pittsburgh's factory chimneys, or
from some of the so-called Big
Four class teams who were larruped
by the Pittsburgh clan at football last
fall, and wanted to show an abb.
Manager Davis gives his alibi in
the form of q pretty complete history
of every member of the team At
any rate, the history is complete
enough to dispel any idea that the
Pittsburgh eleven had a faint of pro-
fessionalism in its system. Ii there
are still remaining any unbelievers
who want to be convinced, the his
tories of the Pitt players may be had
from the writer on application.
Manager Davis's communication,
by the way, conveys the rather in
teresting information that, with two
exceptions, Pennsylvania furnished
all except two of the regulars. With
these two exceptions, all learned the
rudiments of the game in Western
Pennsylvania high and prep schools
three of them at Bellefonte Acad-
envy.
Another point that might interest
hose who started the professionalism
rumor is the fact that the eligibility
rules al Pittsburg University are
practically identical with those of the
large Eastern institutions, wits the
one exception of the residence rule.
Popular demand inside the school this
year will put such a rule into effect
before another twelvemonth, accord
! ing to Manager Davis.

The Brooklyn f. c. added TO its fine
record in the National League by
defeating the Bronx United soccer
eleven by a score Of , to 0 yesterday.
Since its admission TO this body the
Brooklyn team has not been defeat
ed. Last season the team went
through the competition, winning
fourteen games and drawing two, out
of sixteen games played, and this
season it has Won the four games in
which it has taken part, and leads
The league by a margin of two points.
In yesterdays contest, which was
played at Manhattan Field, the
Brooklyn squad assumed the upper
hand a few minutes after play was in
progress. Sammy Coward, the inside
left. worked the ball free from a
scrimmage and, by virtue of a clever
shot, hent 1t whizzing into the Bronx
cage.
Upon resumption of play in the
second half the visitors had things
their own way, and Sweeney and
shanholdt found the enemy's net for
a goal apiece. The forward line and
the backfield of the victors worked
like we'll balanced machine.

The Victor f. c., of Philadelphia,
eliminated the Yonkers F. c. from
the American Challenge cup compe-
tition by defeating the latter soccer
team, 9 to l, in their seeond-round
match on Tibbett Field. Yonkers, yes
terday afternoon. All the goals were
scored in the first forty-tive minutes
Of play. All three of the Philadelphia
teams goals were scored by Tommy
Gaynor, who played a spectacular
game at centre forward, while Lau-
RE was credited with Yonkers's lone
tally. Captain Kerr, of the Yonkers
team, was injured ia the first half,
but stuck to the game until the end.
The Victors played the ball in the air
most of the time while the Yonkers
boys kept it close to the ground. The
field was covered with a thin coat of
ice, making the game very dangerous.
The victors will play the Scottish
Americans in the third round at
Newark.
