START FOOTBALL
ATU. OF P. TODAY
Coach Bob Folwell in Charge
of Team Under Military
Supervision

The football committee of the
University of Pennsylvania Athletic
Association yesterday afternoon, in
meeting lasting an hour and a
half, outlined its plans for conduct
ing the eleven that will wear the
Red and Blue this fall, and at the
end of the session the graduate man.
ager, Edward r. Bushnell, 100 Col
lege, stated, among other things,
that the first practice will be held
this morning at II o'clock and the
second this afternoon at o'clock.
Bob Folwell, whose contract as
coach of the University eleven was
terminated by exercise of the war
clause contained therein, was present
at the meeting, and agreed to take
up the duties of coaching the
Franklin Field team with the same
spirit in which the committee de-
cided to assume the financial and
managerial obligations connected
with 1t. Folwell's salary is of nom
inal dimensions, the lowest ever re-
ceived by a Penn coach, but Fol-
we'll accepted with patriotic celerity.
The eleven will not be a Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania eleven in the
sense that it has been every year
to date. This year the team will rep
resent the Students Army Training
Corps, and membership in the corps
is necessary for every candidate.
Students below the age of 18, and
therefore ineligible for the corps,
may become eligible for the team by
reporting for military drill.
Since the team represents the s.
A. T. c., and is therefore a service
team in every sense of the word,
there will be no ban on freshmen.
nor any barring of a man who has
played four years of intercollegiate
football. Efforts will be made to Sc
cure games with all the teams on
the schedule as arranged before the
taking over of the University by the
government. The Cornell game is
evidently out of the question. but it
is possible that the trip to Pittsburgh
may be made. Major Griffith has the
matter under consideration, his de-
cision being the last word.
Though operating as a service
team, the football facilities of the
University were turned over to the
new eleven for its purposes. Tho
Athletic Association will be in charge
of the managing and the coaching
subject always to the orders OF the
military. AS the roster stands at
present, udliS plaetlSo VIII no otukeu
from 4.30 p. m. till Q p. m. Until
the camp is formally opened on Oc-
tober / two practices will be held
every day, with the exception of to-
morrow, when the entire personnel
will be involved in the military icerc-
monies marking the opening of coll
lege.
Great hope is held out that HOBBY
Light, who did not graduate last
year, will be back. but he has not as
yet reported to headquarters. If he
does, he will be the logical candidate
for the captaincy to fill Bert Bells
shoes. Bert, the captain-elect. is in
France with University Base Hos
pital No. 20. Neylon, a subtackle
and heavyweight boxing champion
of the university, has reported as
candidate.

Soldiers Are Sore
on Baseball Slackers,
Says John Evers

Never was a day when John
Evers could not start something.
Latest from Jawn is an awful
knock on ballplayers as he de-
scribes it from an "over there"
viewpoint. John is taking
whack at most everything in the
way of criticism and the sport
writer's are beginning to pay their
respects to Jawn. One remarks:
IF Johnny Evers is not care
full he will be back in the United
States sooner than he expects.
Johnny has always been man
to express his opinion forcibly
and freely upon any subject that
interested him. One of the sub
Jects just now is the appointment
of Ty Cobb and Christy Mathew
son as captains in the Gas War
fare Service. Johnny writes to
his old friend Hughey Fullerton
to the, effect that the soldiers in
France are not at all tickled
with the idea that these famous
athletes have received mighty
good jobs for the asking, while
other fellows have to work their
heads off in training schools or
fight their heads off in the front
line trenches in order to gain
even a commission as second
lieutenant.
Evers is roundly criticised for
this communications:
There is one thing I have
learned, and that is that the pro-
fessional ball player is in bad
with all the soldiers over there.
Believe me, the boys are sore
on these shipyard and steel mill
duckers, and those birds are 60
ing to get roasted off the lot
after the war. This gang won't
stand for them any more, and
these babies mean business.
The only fellows who will be
allowed on the lot after the war
are those who have come over
here to do their bit in one way
or other.
OF course, you folks over there
know that the players were led
to believe that q few weeks or
months didn't make any differ
ence, but one gets different
angle on it over here.
I'd hate to try to play ball after
this war with a bunch of return
ed soldiers looking on unless they
were sure l tried to do some
thing. And If the players at
home understood the situation
they'd be fighting to get over"

he has made many friends with the

CENTRAL HIGH GIRLS TO
ROOT FOR TECH TEAM

When Captain Elmer kicks off for
Tech Saturday afternoon on the Isl
and against Mount Carmel, an alto
gether different spirit will prevail
among the fairer sex of Harrisburg.
In yesteryears, one of the greatest
delights of the Central co-eds was to
see their rival, Tech High, get a
good lacing. And the climax came If
Central could repeat the trick op
Thanksgiving: But now that idea
has vanished, and Central High
school girls will turn out in body
to cheer for Tech, the Harrisburg
boys high school. The Maroon man
agement will not have to depend en-
tirely on the Tech student body for
its patronage. Central High school
has been invited to attepd this first
game as well as the remaining ones
on the schedule.
Last evening, Coach Smith drilled
the squad on what positions to take
and what each man should do on the
kickoff. Captain Elmer will likely
be called on to do the kicking from
the tee. Tony" Wilsbach will have
the duty of kicking the goals after
touchdowns. and the Tech students
expect that he will be busy enough at
just this one phase of the game.
The Tech band is rehearsing daily
and will make it's first appearance, as
will the cheer leaders. The largest
crowd at an opening game is looked
for. Fat" Lauster will miss his
first contest in four years. 'Vic" Bihl
is also hors-de-combat, and may be
supplanted by Garrett at the center
post. In the scrimmage last night
Bud" Bell injured his left shoulder
but he is expected to be in good
shape for the game Saturday.
Things look roseate for the opener,
and fair weather should bring out a
large crowd to get a first glimpse of
what is expected to be the best team
Tech ever had; one that is sure to
bring the state championship to this
city.
At the chapel exercises tomorrow
morning, DR.. Lewis S. Nudge will
speak to the student body on What
We Can Do to Help Win the War"
He received his information first
hand from the heads of the Depart
ments at Washington.
Special rate tickets will be sold to
the members of the school to-mor-
row for the Mount Carmel contest.
These tickets will be on sale at the
school tomorrow and will be sold
to only the student body. .
John Mcclure, formerly student
at the Germantown High school, has
moved to this city and has been en-
rolled as a member of section r of
the Junior class.
Not content with having Bill
Hoerner president of the athletic as
sociation, his fellow classmates have
thrust on him the honor of senior
class president. While he is known
among the Tech students as Silent
VIII he has a reputation for WELD
ing the gavei in Joe Cannon style.
Vic" Bihl is the new vice-president
and Lester Bell the treasurer. All
