PENN
l Pitt Loses De Hart
And Morrow for
Penn State Game

PITTSBURGH, Nov. ga bombshell
was hurlded into the Pitt football camp
to-day with the announcement by the
faculty that Captain Jimmy De Hart
and Quarterback Jim Morrow had been
declared ineligible to participate in to-
morrow's game with Penn State.
De Hart and Morrow have been on
the injured list for some time, and
apparently came to the conclusion that
up in their studies under the circum-
stances. The faculty thought other
wise, and the edict went forth this
morning that the two veterans would
not be allowed to participate again in
athletics until they had toed the scho-
lastc mark
To-morrow's game would have been
the last for both OF Them although it
is a question whether Captain De Hart
would have played at any rate, owing
TO his physical condition. Warner was
counting on Morrow, however, and his
elimination means d re-arrangement of
the lineup.
Owing to the heavy rain this after
noon it was impossible to give the
Partners much of u workout, and the
practice period was given over to sig
nal drill, although the boys were lined
up in the terrific rain, with Herb Nc
Cracker in De Harris place at quarter
back and Speed Laughram at right
halfback. McCracken was to have
played at left end, and Warner tried
both CHM and Eckert there to-day,
the latter looking to be the likely can
didate for the place tomorrow.

Erasmus Protests
Team Prize Award
To Flushing Racers

Erasmus Hall High School, of Brook
Ign, has protested the award Of the
team cham pionship to. Flushing High
School, in the annual Public School
Athletic League cross-country run over
the Van Cortlandt Park course last
Saturday. Erasmus contends that. the
failure Of officials to properly check
its fifth runner to finish deprived it
of the honors
The Brooklyntes declare that they
won the title with a total of SO points
instead Of being second, with 70 points,
to Flushing. which was credited with
winning count of 70 points.
Frederic II. Kruse, manager of the
Erasmus team, has brought the error
70 the notice of MIR. Bachelor. the
Erasmus delegate on the High Schools
Games Commit ec, who will bring the
matter before the latter body a. it's
monthly meeting next week. Kruse
declares that Sands. who substituted
Tor Bradley, with the approval OF Mr..
Batchelor, and finished iorty-iirst, was
not checked by the officials. Instead
they checked TRAM, who came home
IN slxty-ninth position, as the fifth
Erasmus runner over the line.
According to Kruse, the five places
won by Erasmus were first. eighth,
twelfth, thirteenth and twenty fifth DO
sltlons. for a total Of 80 points. while
Flushing runners scored in fourth.
sixth, fifteenth, twenty first and t,vcn-
ty-tourth places, for an aggregate Of
70 points.

apparently unevenly matched this
season, record crowd is expected. OF
course the fact that the game is the
annual Cornell-Penn event is what
matters. nothing else does. If good
game should result so much the bet
ter for the occasion.
Whether or not the contest will be
q good one good in the sense that the
teams will play hard, clean-cut foot
bah in capable way-remains to be
sem. Penn has show ability to do so,
but Cornell has not, which doesn't
mean that she won't to-day.
Cornell Playing Ragged
While Cornell has shown flashes of
performing in creditable manner on
occasion this fall, its play on the
whole has been extremely ragged. The
big Red team probably has not eX
perienced such a disastrous season in
q decade
But it must be remembered that Cor
neA's material is comparatively green
this year and that the team has been
up against some of the strongest teams
chance to really get settled on it's
cleated feet. However, the Ithacans
haven't entirely lost by their several
defeats. The players got much good
experience from those hard contests.
which is apt to stand them in good
stead to-day.
Cornell will enter the game knowing
exactly what it is up against. The
same cannot be said of Penn. The Red
and Blue players, although they will
be. warned against overconfidence, will
not be able. to down entirely the feel
ing that the Cornell team is not quite
their equal on the gridiron this season
and this very feeling may prove their
undoing. 1t will not certainly pay the
Quakertown eleven to feel any too
secure until the fray. is ended. for
this year stranger things than a Cor
nell victory over Penn have happened.
Must Show Improvement
In order to achieve victory. however.
Cornell will have to show ton of i'm
rrovement and then some over her
play of past weeks. Against Dart
mouth and Penn State the Ithacans
displayed hardly anything in the way
of an offense, a mediocre defense and
little football knowledge on the whole
Penn has many good qualities, but
not the best fighting spirit by any
means. Dartmouth Penn State and
Pitt showed themselves to be better
lighting aggregations.
* Cornell has improved within the
last fortnight, in spite of all the dope
winning this afternoon

Special Correspondence
ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. 26.-The
Naval Academy football team practised
in secret again this afternoon To-
morrow there will be some more field
work and the squad will use the Polo
Grounds, New York, some time Friday.
There was no scrimmage this after
noon, work being confined to signal
and formation drills and kicking.
There were indications that there
has been some Improvement both in
punting and drop kicking. though the
team has no men who can be classed
among the really high grade players
in either of these departments.
Dobie said to-day that some changes
might be expected when the team went
on the field Saturday, and that he had
by no means settled upon those who
will start the game The whole right

he said. may not be the men who have
been generally expected to begin play
He said frankly that he was considering
replacing Clark, left half, by either

decision between Waters and Benoist

In the line the changes contemplate
dropping Captain Even and putting
Lowe in his place and also substitute

and Wicdorn for King at left tackle
King, it is said, has a severe swelling
of the leg.

injuries preventing his playing. Lowe
and Parr substituted for him Lowe
made an excellent showing and the
coach declared to-day that he may put
him in at the start.
The Army has a considerably heavier
team than the midshipmen, and it is
reported here that the average from
tackle to tackle is 2O2 pounds. The
Navy has nothing to compare to this
but Wilkes presence would bring
up the average greatly. Wiedorr
weighs 1873 pounds. which is about ths
same as King, but Dobie does not hes
itate to express dissatisfaction with
the recent work of the latter, who ha.

are the struggles scheduled that will
provide those who see them enough
thrills to last for the remainder of

IN the country than these four and
their clashing furnishes fitting finale
to q glorious season.
The Pitt Penn State game viii be
played at Forbes Field at Pittsburgh.
Every scat and every inch of space
has been disposed Of and thousands
moro are clamoring for admission to
this battle.
For the past six years Pitt has had
sort Of monopoly on this game, but
this season the Warnerites will be
thankful if they get away with even
a one point victory. State is bringing
an eleven to the Smoky City on which
every man is fighting, slashing foot
ball warrior. There is no weak spot
in that State tearI 1t is well-moid-
coaching of Hugo Bezdek and Dick

Pitt, too, has good material and a
wonderful coach. but it is doubtful if
the Penn team has the fight that State
possesses this year Led by Captain
Bob Higgins. undoubtedly the greatest
end in the game to-day, Penn State
enters the battle arena prepared to do

he Painters will yield day.

To Army-Nauy Game

The few tickets for the Army and
Navy game at the Polo Grounds
Saturday which fell into the hands
of spectators were offered II prices
from 500 upward last night There
are very few to be had at that or
any price. The seats in the Polo
Grounds were sold months ago to
army and navy people, and there
were very few left for the general
public. The Offices of the New York
Giants, where the few outside tickets
were sold. have been stormcd for
weeks.
So few tickets were sold outside
of army and navy circles that the
percentage obtained by the specu-
lators was very low this year. The
police have been asked to watch for
the spectators. 1t was reported
last night that $3.50 was paid for two
tickets. which comes pretty close
to being the highest price ever paid
to see football game. The demand
for tickets has been so great that
higher price still may be paid. The
police are on the lookout for forged
tickets.
