THREE COLLEGES
CLAIM FOOTBALL
H0N0RS OF YEAR
Cornell, Pittsburgh and Colgate
Have Gone Through the
Season Without Be-
ing Defeated.

NEW YORK. Nov. lot begins to
look as If Old King Solomon will have
to do a come back" and give US
ruling on the question: WHO has the
best claim just now for the title of
football champion OF the east?
Cornell claims it has the best;
Pittsburgh does likewise, and Colgate
rises up to ask: "Whatsa matter with
us, hey?"
teams are beaten before the end of
the season, all three will have per-
feet right to claim the honor.
"If we go through the season un-
beaten, We'll have the real right to
the championship irrespective Of what
Pittsburgh or Colgate do" said Cor
nell person. Look at our record"
Here is the record:
Cornell Is, Gettysburg 0.
Cornell "a, Oberlin Z.
Cornell 46, Williams 6.
Cornell Al, Bucknell O.
Cornell 10, Harvard 0.
, Cornell As, Virginia Ply, o.
! Cornell 81, Michigan O.
Total-233-2O
The next speaker is Pittsburgh
gentleman:
Pittsburgh has a better claim to
the championship than has Cornell or
Colgate Pittsburgh has won all of
it's scheduled games. 1t gave Navy
the worst beating that 1t has suffered
in many years. It beat w. & J. by
one Of the biggest scores ever rolled
up against a w. & ]. team in nearly
10 years. And the w. & ] team this
year beat Yale to a frizzle- FRAGILE.
Here's our record:
Pittsburgh 80, Westminster o.
Pittsburgh Al. Navy II.
Pittsburgh As, Carlisle 0.
Pittsburgh Il, Pennsylvania Z.
Pittsburgh AZ, Allegheny Z.
Pittsburgh 10, w. & ]. o.
Totals-199-26.
And now we introduce the next
speaker, the Colgate parsonage:
Colgate has a record that is better
than Cornell or Pittsburgh. We've
beaten Yale and we've beaten the
Army, as well as three other elevens.
We're the only big team in the coun-
try that hasn't been scored on this
year. We smashed a record when we
scored 107 points in one game against
the r. =. l. team. And as for Cor
nell. we'll, we beat those birds to
last year, and we could do it this
year If they'd have given us a chance
on the schedule. But / guess they
didn't want any more of our stuff:
Here is the Colgate record.
Colgate "A, Susquehanna 0.
Colgate A, Rochester o.
Colgate 13, Arm O.
Colgate 107, r. P. I. o.
Colgate Is. Yale O..
Totals-223-0.
Each of the three teams still must
play a seemingly formidable game
Thanksgiving day. Pittsburgh plays
SIR nj o1o
and Cornell meets it's ancient foe
Pennsylvania. On Saturday, the 9th
Colgate grapples with the big Syracuse
eleven and Syracuse probably will go
into the game a favorite over the
plucky New York outfit.
