PENN READY FOR
CORNELL CONTEST

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. "a Bob
Folwell and his Quaker football gen
tlemen are done with Franklin Field
until Thursday. This morning the
entire Red and Blue gridiron outfit,
from headgears to blackboards, pack
ed up in accordance with heavy
marching order regulations and went
arising from the needles. The eleven
will be put through scrimmage
Tuesday. and this, with a light work
out Wednesday, will complete the
year of drilling. The following morn
ing the Penn men will return to their
haunts for the annual tilt with Cor
nell Thursday afternoon.
Penn, of course, expects to win
the game from Cornell. but the big
Red team has sprung too many sur
prises in the past for the coaches to
take any chances. They put them
through grueling work six days last
week, and it is believed that with
only enough work to keep them on
edge they will be in the best condi-
tion OF the season wher they meet
the Ithacans Thanksgiving Day.
All forms of attack have been re-
hearsed time and again, until the
Pennsylvania varsity can go throog
these maneuvers mentally Slindfolded.
All of the forward pass plays have
been practiced until they are per
formed with a nicely that is likely
to keep the Cornell defense well scat
tered throughout the game and give
Light, Bruner, and the other back
field men a chance to make lot OF
ground through the line and around
the ends.
Cornell will arrive here from Ithaca
Tuesday morning, and after spendlns :
the seasons profits for breakfast
will go to Atlantic City, where they
will remain by the seaside until
Thursday morning.

Business and Eastern offered little
or no opposition and were outclassed
from the start by Central, Western
and Tech. No surprise is occasioned
that these two teams had no stars to
offer in comparison with other teams
for an all-high selection.
Figures on the season show some
surprising things on points ed and
on the relative strength of the three
teams which fought it out for the
title.
Central annexed 115 points 20 2S for
the opposition. Western gained 100
points in scoring for % for the Cpposi-
ton. Tech dragged down 9S points
to 81 for the opposition On points
scored by the records there was little
to choose. Central had more points
scored against it than either Western
or Tech and in turn scored more fire.
ouently. |
Central Was Stronger.
Central had enough stuff to put It
on Western on a wet field and show
ed consummate skill. better general
ship and winning power in its crucial
game with Tech last Friday.
1t is a mooted question as to
whether Western would have made
a day like that on which the Central
Tech game was staged
While the figures on the season
show the closeness of competition
they fail to tell the real story OF
Tech and Central play of second
elevens against both Business and
Eastern.
The selection of an All-High team
may be likened to the old lady who.
when she had kissed the cow, replied
that it was merely a matter of taste.
Those who style themselves critics
feel called upon to give the young
sters an extra boost for work done
during the season by picking an
eleven.
The result is that the critic Is dif-
fered with to great degree, ac-
cused of favoritism and generally
berated as being "batty" to the minus
zero power, especially il he happens
to be interested in, connected with,
or related to any of the players.
Three Performed Well.
However, as the old lady kissed the
cow. the following is offered for APP
proval, seeing that a majority OF the
players were observed from unusual
ly close range
Three players-James Powell, full
back on Western; Eddie Strohecker
and Dick Newby, halfbacks on Cen

dropped the ball for q Virginian to
fall upon il, but even that break
failed to enlighten the visiting team.
Had Washington and Lee kicked
on and punted frequently, the score
might have been closer than it was,
though it Is difficult to imagine that
big, sluggish, slow-thinking aggrega-
tion winning from the HiIltoppers as
the latter performed Saturday. That
simply wasn't In the books. that's all
Beginning today. Georsetown's
squad has three days in which to
prepare for the big game with Boston
College, to be played Saturday, At
Fenway Park, the home of the Bos-
ton Red Sox. 1t Is expected that
Johnny McQuade will be in Uniform
this afternoon and will start against
Frank Cavanaugh's eleven. Aside
from McQuade, the same team that
opened up against Washington and
Lee will face the Bostonians satur-
day. Jack F1avin will probably be
shifted across to left halfback. His
spectacular playing Saturday has
earned him q regular berth with the
Blue and Gray, and next year he
should be a humdinger.
It's Rsash. But Fair.
weeks results tend to prove. Just
when Washington and Lee was romp-
ing away to an undisputed grip upon
both the Southern and the South At
lantic championships. they were upset
by Georgetown. Now there is no
Southern titleholder, unless Center
College. of Kentucky, owns it, while
Georgetown has won the South Allan
tic championship.
Ohio state had the Western Confer
ence championship in Its fingers, only
to lose il when Illinois won. to Z.
Ohio State paid the penalty OF pos
sessing a superman in Chick Har-
ley. The teams whole play was built
around this great player. A lame
knee weakened him to- such an eX-
tent that the whole team suffered cor
respondingly.
Just when most Eastern writer's
were figuring Syracuse as the strong
est team in the country, judged from
its record. the Salt City OUTFIT dropped
a game to Indiana, anything but the
strongest of the conference elevens.
Now Syracuse may lose it's honors
earned by defeating Pittsburgh,
Brown, Rutgers, and Colgate.
Glen Warner thought to toy with
OF substitutes to face the Plaid, but
was compelled TO rush in his first
string men in a hurry when Steffins'
gang began to run away with the
vic ctory. This has been a hard year
for the Panthers, yet IL one wipes out
that Syracuse game. Pitt comes close
to being the best eleven in sight. Ger
tainly IL has played the hardest sched-
ule of any in the East.
One game, acclaimed to the skies
was played Saturday at Cambridge
but Haryard's victory over Yale
proves nothing. Capable critics, wit
Messing the game, do not hesitate to
say that they can name half a dozen
better eievens than either Harvard or
Yale.
Harvard barely won from what is
believed to be a weak Yale team
Nothing especial was noted in the
game, unless il be the great 55-yard
! field goal by Jim Braden, the Yale
fullback. 1t was rather a ding-dong
contest, as so many Harvard-Yale
games have been. Those expected to
shine, failed to glimmer. The best
work was done In the line, particu-
larry by Sedgwick, the Harvard
tackle, who was the best forward on
the field.
