PITTSBURGH'S TITLE
CLAIM UNDISPUTED
Rutgers Victory Over Cupid
Blacks Eleven Removes Last
Contender for Crown.

Unless the unforeseen happens and
the University OF Pittsburgh is de-
feated by the Penn State eleven on
Thanksgiving Day-whlch is highly
improbable. In view OF respective
form shown by these teams to date
the claim of the Panthers to the
Eastern football championship will be
undisputed. Incidentally, IL Pitts
burgh defeats State it will have com
pleted its third season in succession
without suffering defeat.
- The victory of Foster Sanford's
Rutgers eleven over the all-star team
title for Pittsburgh. Rutgers removed
the last Of the contenders for the
title.
While a study OF comparative foot
ball scores seldom leads to any
definite deduction. in this instance IL
furnishes some interesting, food for
thought and helps to establish Glenn
Warmers clan at the top of the
Eastern heap.
Rutgers defeated Blacks Newport
Naval Reserves by a score of II to o.
Early in the season Syracuse defeat
ed Rutgers by a score of II to 10
Immediately after this Syracuse
triumph Pittsburgh beat Syracuse by
score OF 2S to 0.
Following the trend OF the more or
less honorable dope" a glance at the
foregoing scores can be accepted to
mean but one thing-Pittsburgh must
be 90 points stronger than Rutgers
and 46 points stronger than the New
port Naval Reserves.

BILLS LETTERS

Dear George:
I have gotten myself into some
thing. Incidentally I found that Cap !
tain Phillips is not quite as pleasant |
and easy-going when drilling the |
company as when acting as recruit |
ing officer. He seems to have the !
idea that when he gives a command |
he wants it executed and executed !
right now. Still, think we will get |
along very nicely.
We did not have a regular drill
last night. We only drilled a few
minutes and then listened to a lee !
ture by Doctor Hutchinson on ele-
mentary hygiene. And it was that
lecture that gave me the idea that
I had gotten myself into something.
He started in and talked about in
fected wounds and contaminated wa
ter, and frost bite, and the trenches
in France and all kinds of subjects
that contain unpleasant possibilities.
For my part | don't care for in
fected wounds and trench warfare
not that I am afraid of them, but
because it is more comfortable in
this country. However, the prospect
of going to France is somewhat dis
| tant because it will take several
months to drill our company into
shape so that it can go anywhere ex-
cept to the training camp, and we
! can worry about those things when
we come to them.
You know. people are funny things.
In every day life you get the i'm
| preston that nearly every person
you meet is fairly honest and that
| all people have a reasonable amount
| of courage, but when a time of ma
| tional stress-like the present
comes along you find you are sadly
| mistaken with regard to some of
| them, particularly with regard to
their courage. Now I am not espec-
| tally afraid of being conscripted, and
! the only reason I did not wait for
| it, instead of enlisting now, is be
cause | did not want to be put in
| the position of being forced to do
something that it was clearly my
duty to do. But I have run across
| some fellows who don't feel that way
about it in the least. One of them
| in particular rented two acres of
| ground and hired a negro to plant
| it in potatoes so he could claim eN-
| emption as a farmer. But that did
| not work because the negro and not
ne became exempt under that pro-
cess. He then tried to enlist in the
Hospital Corps, and failing that, in
the Quartermaster's Department so
he would not have to go on the firing
line. The Quartermaster's Depart
ment wouldn't have him so he offered
his services free of charge, to the
postoffce and finally to Mr.. Hoover,
in charge of the Department If Food
Control Possibly Mr.. Hoover will
take him, provided a yellow streak
does not disqualify applicants for
civilian employment with the gov
eminent. l wonder what he will do
if Mr.. Hoover turns him down.
I started out to tell you my eX-
periences as a buck private, but find
I have been moralizing on the &C
tions of other people. I guess that
is just as we'll as 1 have had very
few experiences as a soldier up to
the present time. Next time I will
probably be able to explain just eX-
actly how it feels to be drilled in
the awkward squad.
Yours,
PTTT
