Ate Peanuts

Eating peanuts caused the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania foot
ball coaches to drop Bill Quig-
ley, a member Of this years
varsity football squad, and
former Exeter star, from the
squad.
The training rules Of the Quaker
institution say that q player
shall not eat between meals,
and on last Saturday morning
Quigley was seated on one Of
the benches at Franklin Field
watching the Freshman-De
Academy game, and while en-
crossed in this early morning
battle he forgot the ruling on
the between-meal eating and
purchased a small bag Of pea
nuts. He distributed the ma
jority Of them among his fel-
low spectators, but he man
aged to get away with about
ten of the ground nuts, and
while engaged in eating them
he was nabbed by one Of the
coaches and as a result Bill
is no longer on the varsity
squad. Woe unto all peanut
eaters.

Craig Will Succeed Miles in Quarterback Position.
Ingram Rapidly Deciding on Other Men,
bers to Face Army.

ANNAPOLIS, Nov 1s.-Besides auth

OF the Naval Academy team will be
made UP OF Craig. at quarterback. m
stead Of Captain Miles: Westphai and
Davis at the halves. and Martin at rull-
back. whom It meets the Army eleven
on tho New York Folio Grounds on
November q. Head Coach Ingram is
willing to state that three positions on
the limo are practically settled; that
there is some advantage noticeable be-
tween tho contestants for three other
positions. and that the other line POSI-
ton Is extremely doubtful. with one
candidate but a shade above the other.
Lieutenant Ingram stated that left
and right tackles will be Ward and OIL
man. respectively. and that kercher
had made good at left guard. He said
that Johnson would probably be chosen
over jackson to start the game at right
end. and that r. K. Smith had tho call
In some degree over Hoffman for right
guard. e. NJ. Jones 10 in the lead for
center over Goodstein. who is his only
competitor since II. 8. Jones has been
placed out Of the compeution through
Injuries. In all three Of these cases the
choice has fallen on the heavier man
OF the competitors.
The hardest kind Of a hght Is going
on between Won Heimberg and Blod-
gett for the position at left end. yes
terday 1t was thought that Blodgett
was in the lead. but today Won Helm
berg has forged ahead and Is slightly
the favorite to begin the game. Both
have had the larger part OF their OK
perience as backs. Blodgett played on
the Academy, team for two seasons at
tered this year. has done all OF his work
behind the line. Blodgett. however.
has been working at end most or this
season. and the position Is new to Won
Heimberg.
The one who makes the place will be
expected to get behind the line to dc
the punting, and also In some cases 70
pass the ball or run with It. so that all
OF these factors will enter into the
choice. Blodgett 10 the heavier by about
twenty pounds.
Assuming that Won Heimberg wins
the place at left end. and that nothing
brings about change in the lineup
able, the average weight of the team
will be ia s-l1 pounds. Tho line will
average 1872 2-7 pounds. which is well
up to the heavier lines which the Navy

Pitt entered the game without single

that State really had tho best Of the

The ThaIksEivlng Day game with

years. and as both institutions have
strong teams the battles usually are as

as the country affords anywhere. Thou

Cobb & Co. were made during 1911 with J. Delehanty as filler in. This great trio made 649 base hits. The total number made by the team stood 1,546. There are just four records in the history of the game which excel the above mentioned record, and they were all made during the season of 1887, under the four strike rule.
 One of the slugging combinations to make a record was Tip ONeal, Rob- inson and Charlie Comiskey of the St. Louis Browns. In the season of 1887 these three made 700 hits. The best record ever made in this respect was created by Pete Browning, Red Mack and Hub Collins of the old Louisville club in 1887. They raised the St. Louis combinations mark by twenty points, making 720 hits, which is the record for all time. The old Baltimore team of 1S95-6-7 had a great slugging com bination in Keeler, Jennings and Kelly. The great trio of the Philadelphia Nationals from 1891 until 1895 were Delehanty, Thompson and Hamilton, and later Lajoie was added. They were wreckers of ball games, also of the hopes of many hurlers.
