penn SCR|MMAGES
HERE ON SATURDAY
Heisman's Squad Returns t.
Franklin Field at End Of
This Week

George School, Pa, Sept. THE
University of Pennsylvania football
squad, which has been taking their pre-
liminary workouts here, will leave for
Philadelphia either Friday or Saturday
and will be back home In time to have
the first scrimmage Of the season on

The only men from whom no word
has been received are Eddie Farrell,
star halfbnck Of the freshman team
Calder and Harvey, subs Of last years
varsity. Word was received today from
Dieter. whose home is In Massachu-
setts, that he will Join the squad Thurs
day or Friday. Carl Thomas. former
oarsman and last years varsity guard,
and Dick Frank. another varsity guard !,
were in togs this morning for the FIRST
time.
This afternoon Heisman stated that
the work would consist solely in often =
sive and defensive formations and that
no more elementary practice would be
held.
As result Of rainfall yesterday,
Heisman put his candidates through
some fast work in the George School
gymnasium.
Because the candidates have wor rked
hard last week the two indoor sessions
were devoted to instructing the men in
old and new plays and getting the new =
comers acquainted with the Heisman
system. A lecture was given on foot
ball rules. A change In the line up
of the class A team was made by Heis-
man which. however, does not mean
that the new team will be the one to
face Delaware in the first game, as
Coach Buck Wharton said today
EVERY position on the team is oper
throughout the season.
The team selected and put through
formations and the Heisman shift wa.
as follows: Quarterback, Miller; left
halfback, Watkins; right halfback, Re,
Wray y fullback, Joe Strauss; ends
Deaver and Grave; tackles, Ward ant
Thurman; guards, Copeland and Len
| ham center, Crawford.

cally. he ran the set out after three all
had been reached. ....
Twenty six Service Aces
'. While all of Tilden's shots were
amazing in their spectacular execution,
his service was the weapon that stood
out pre- eminently. A lot has been said
OF Tilden's high powered delivery, but
not enough. Yesterday he surpassed
anything that he ever attempted In the
way OF service, making twenty six
clean aces. There were a number If
other service shots that whizzed over
so fast that Johnston could not make
good return and others which he
patted back 30 weakly that Tilden killed
! them off in short order as he went to the
net. %
If there was any other department
Of Tilden + game that stood out above
the rest it was his backhand. Never
have so many fine placement shots been
made In this way as he made yesterday.
He seemed to have absolute control Of
the long backhand drive and time and
again he scored clean placements, both
on drives that shot straight down and
shots that tipped just out Of Johnston s
reach.
A number of times when Johnston
was rushing to the net Tilden made no
effort to either pass or cross court him.
but drove the ball with hurricane speed
low and straight at Johnston. He did
this three times in the eighth game OF
the fifth set, winning il and breaking
through Johnston's service for the gams
which virtually meant the match and
championship.
Tilden used exceptionally good judg-
ment throughout. After he saw how
well Johnston's forehand drive was
working in the second set Tilden
dropped his driving game almost en- =
tirely for a time and began shooting
over a series of heavily cut balls that
Johnston was unable to drive with any
speed at ALL In this way the Califor
nian was robbed of his forehand drive,
his most powerful offensive stroke.
Lobbed Well
Tilden also mixed lob here and
there and this also helped materially to
get Johnston out Of his stride. And
those lobs were wonders. They were
tossed up so high and so far back in the
court that Johnston made no attempt to
smash out the point, as he usually does
vi ioDo' DuI was COuttuJ u Btt
the ball back over the net.
The frequent double -faulting of both
players in the latter part of the match
was due largely to the heavy balls
which had become almost waterlogged
by constant contact with the spongy
turf. Just why Conlin waited so long
before tossing out some new pills cannot
be explained. After the rain the balls
not only became heavy very quickly. but
they became SO caked with mud that il
was very hard for either of the players
to see them. Several points were wor
by each because the others fast drives
could not be seen at all until it was toe
late to make move for them.
The crowd was the largest that evel
saw tennis match in this country
There were more than $4,000 packed il
the stands and runways. The conduct
of spectators was perfect. no one leav
ing the stand during play in spite of the
frequent showers that marrcd the mattel
and slowed up the play in the last few
games Of the fourth set and all Of tn,
fifth.
