Decision To Be Made To-
day by University Secre-
tary; Quigley Will Play

Tho football situation a. Columbia
took on {, brighter hue yesterday when
1t was learned that Frank Canapary,
former captain Of this years eleven,
who was dismissed from the SQUAD a
fortnight ago by Coach Fred Dawson,
~ be allowed to play against Brown.
The incident had been considered d
closed, but Canapary apologized to
Dawson and later appealed to Sccrc
tary Fackenthnl, OF the University. who
is also on the Columbia committee on
athletics, that he be reinsta.ed. 1t is
generally known that Cacapary de-
sircs to be gi"en q chance 20 retrieve
himself.
Yesterday Canapa-y again saw Mr..
Fackenthal, who has the authority to
act in the case. No definite announce
mcnt was mace, but the secretary said
the case would be reconsidered by the
athletic committee and decision given
out to-day.
If Canapary is permitted to play, the
Columbia prospects for the Brown con-
test would be materially enhanced.
Canapary unqucstonnbly is the best
helfback in school Especially at this
time his return would be welcome be-
cause Of the weakness in the Columbia
backfeld.

Has Sprained Ankle
Special CorresDonGouco

Special Correspondence
STATE COLLEGE, Pa, Nov. 25.-The
Penn State eleven received q rousing
send-off tonight in the Auditorium.
The team will leave on Wednesday. and
in aditon to the varsity the scrub play
ers will be taken to the game as a re-
ward for Their work all season. About
twenty-five men viii comprise the var
sity squad.
With the exception of Joe Lightner
the scrappy halfback, all of the men are
in good shape for the game with the
Panthers on Thursday. Lightner
sprained his ankle in scrmmage last
Saturday and viii hardly get into the
game. This means that Charlie Wav
will start at right hafback, with
George Smell at left half Robb at
quarterback and Hess at full.
Although the Blue and White eleven
has practiced almost constantly on a
muddy grdiron, members of the team
are hoping for d dry field on Thanks
giving Day. Captain Higgins's team is
not very heavy, and speed is one of the
important factors in their play. so
that dry field will be a big asset. On
q rainy day Pitt should be by far the
favorte.
The loss of Lightner and Haines, two
OF his best backs, was severe blow to
Coach Bezdek. and there is no doubt
that the team has been correspondingly
weakened. AT the mass meeting to-
night Bezdek pointed out to the stu
dents the odds against the Blue and
White in this, the final game, and he
said that he believed Penn State tc
have a fighting chance to come out or
top.

Canapary, Colunnbia's Deposed
Captain, May Oppose Brown

nouncement by Eddie Quiglcy that he
would be out in togs this afternoon.
Eddie was forced to retire earlier in
the season because OF water on the
knee, but claims now that he is in
good condition. He will work out this
afternoon, and if the knee does not
bother him will start against the
Brunonians. At quarterback Quigley
has few peers in the college world
both as field general and as an Of
feNsive man.
With the return Of these two stars,
the Columbia team would begin to
loom up as dangerous foe for any
elever. With Quigley at quarter, APP
pclbaum at full and Canapary and Tom
Farrell. the newly discovered backfield
be powerful The line is now very
strong, though in the last few games
once an opponent broke through the
forwards he was good for g long gain,
as the secondary defense has been
very weak
All of the Columbia players who par
ticipated in the N. Y. U. game were
out yesterday for light practice. The
coaches are anXious that no more of
the men be laid up with injuries, so
are letting them off rather easily. In
the workout new combination was
used in the backfeld. Sam Weinstein
was brought from end and used at
quarterback, with Appelbaum at full
and Mosczienski and Farrell at the
halves. Larner was used on the line
in Weirstcin's place.
Another light practice is in order for
this afternoon, and every one on the
campus is looking forward to the final
decision on the Canapary case.

Wharton Resigns
As Pennsy Coach;
Served 20 Years
Special Correspondence

Special Cores spondence
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 25. - Dr.
Charles w. Wharton, known to the
football world generally and to all
Pennsylvania men as Buck" to-day
confirmed the report that he would re-
tire as Pennsylvania line coach after
the Cornell game Thanksgiving Day
He says he wishes to devote all his
time in the future to the newly or
ganized department of mass athletics
at Penn. DR.. Wharton recently was ap-
pointed head of this department. He
has been connected with Penn football
history for some twenty years.
Major Maylin j. Pickering, Penn's
graduate manager of athletics, was not
notified by Dr. Wharton that he in
tended to discontinue his coaching
duties, nor was any one else for that
matter, until DR.. Wharton himself
made the announcement.
II was as surprised as anybody" said
Manager Pickering. Buck Wharton is
one of the best line coaches in the
country. Since taking up this coaching
burden here he has turned out some
wonderful linemen. | am not so sure
however, that DR.. Wharton can alto
gether Danish the lure of the gridron.
He is q football lover from the word
60"
Wharton, an ex-State football star
from Delaware and prominent physi-
clan and captain in the army during
the war, is credited with having de-
veloped many of Penn's present line
men. He became the Red and Blue line
coach in 1915. and since then Penn
elevens have been noted for their rock
ribbed defense.
In 1896 Buck" Wharton captained
one of the greatest Penn elevens in
the history of the Red and Blue

coach at Penn and the man who per-
fected the guards back" play; "By'
Dickson, now coach at Franklin and
Marshall; McCracken. Jack Minds. Gel
bert, Gus Ziegler, Boyle, Hedges. Weeks
and Carnett. DR. Frank Hancock. pres
ent physician Of the Penn team, also
played on Captain Wharton's eleven.
A report that DR.. Wharton's action
members of the Penn coaching staff
was denied Wharton dismissed rumors
that he might be appointed head coach
for next season by saying he did not
care for the job
Amid the quiet surroundings of The
Whitcmarsh Valley Country Club the
Penn squad put in its second day OF
practice to-day in preparation for the

None of the Penn coaches would dis
cuss the makeup of the team that will
face the Ithacans All indications are
however, that the Red and Blue clever
will line up the same as in the Dart
mouth and Pitt games.
The way the Penn coaches juggle The
ends, tackles and halfbacks during the
practices raises endless conjectures a:
to the purpose of the moves. They
have done this all season, and then
when the ball was "teed' for the kick
off, have stood pat on the plays uset
in previous games.

Rival for Joe Stecher
Found i'm Gus Anderson

According to the latest reports from
Coblenz, Germany, Ed Lewis, Joe
Stecher, Zbyszko and others claiming
wrestling honors will have to figure
on Gus Anderson, former pupil Of
Farmer" Burns, who is now member
of the army Of occupation.
In the recent bouts held at the Y.

palace grounds. at Coblenz, Anderson
took on Lauwers, Belgian heavywei ght
champion, and after nine minutes
of wrestling pinned the giants
shoulders to tie mat using hammer
lock and front body hold. Gus was
outweighcd more than twenty pounds,
but was the aggressor from the gong.
In the international boxing bout

considerable class against WHITAKER

boxing pace that the Briton's seconds

Coach Glenn Warner thought it we'll TO
put the Panthers through a grueling
practice in the mud and water, so that
they would be the better prepared for
just such a game on Thank sgiving, the
indications being for a soft gridiron.
The whole squad was out to-day, in
Guiding Captain Jimmy De Hart, who
did not exert himself very much, his
ankle being very weak. There is no
surety that Jimmy will be in the Penn
State game, but as this is his last year
at Pitt he is very anxious to play on
Thursday and Warner nay give him a
chance before the last period is over.
Andy Hastings and jim Morrow will
play their farewell game for the varsity

all his football reputation to outwit
the craftiness Of the Penn State coach.
1t is we'll known here that Bezdek
is a great believer in aerial football,
and to-day the scrubs were told to go
out and do all the forward passing
they could get away with, in which
they succeeded few times, but Tom
Davies, Laughran and Hastings dis
played sufficient ability to smear this
play considerably. The scrimmaging
wasn't particularly heavy to-day, as
Warner fears to take chance on

PROVIDENCE, Nov. 25.-Brown held
its last practice of the season this af-
ternoon. 1t consisted entirely of sig
nal work and punting, the coaches not
daring to attempt scrimmage because
of the crippled condition of the team.
The coaches are unable to decide just
what the opening lineup for the Co.
lumba game will be, as several of the
be kept out of practice.
Williams, Albright, McSweeney and
Brisk, all of whom are to make
the trip, were used this afternoon,
with possibly the first two named hav-
ing the preference. Albright is in fine
condition now, while Williams, Brown S
colored end, has been the sensation of
the team this year.
The center of the line is presenting
d problem to Coaches Robinson and
Whittemore. Hoving, former New
York City schoolboy star, has water on
the knee and will undoubtedly be un~
able to play Brace. substitute center

necessitate the changing Of Shurtlcff.

ter, or Of playing Black, former Ruth

If Sinclair is able to play it will
mean that both tackle positions will
be taken care Of by New York City
boys, for Johnstone will be at right
tackle. However, it appeared probable
that Guian would get in as one Of the
tackles before the game is over. Other
tackles who are to be taken on the trip
are Edison, j. M. Nichols and Fuller.
Crowther, first string quarterback
will not be able to make the trip, as he
is not in condition to play. Fox is
also laid up with a sore back, but will
probably start the game against Co
lumba. Coulter and Pieri will be
taken along and it is probable that the
latter will get chance before the con-
test is over.
Twenty eight players are to be taken
on the trip, while coaches, trainers
and managers will increase the party
