Mrs. Clarence II. Vanderbeck had q
lead OF six puts and a brassie shot

teed off on the second round of the
80 hole medal competition for the Mary
Thayer Fnrnum cup at the Philadel-
phia Cricket Club this morning.
Mrs. Vanderbeck came home in but
thirty nine strokes yesterday for 81
and only two in the field had the least
chance TO beat her today. They were
Mrs. Caleb +. Fox and Mrs. G. Henry
Stetson, both Huntington Valley, who
each had a 81.
But seventeen Of the n entries an-
peared at the first tee yesterday.
II was raining a 10 bucket, but the
doughty band was undeterred and went
the squashy round regardless.
Mrs. Vanderbock was the favorit"
before the start and still is, only more
80. She has already won the Eastern
and Philadelphia championship this year
as well as tho Cape May and Shawnee
tournaments. Her golf this year ap-
pears better than ever and she has
good chance in the national week after
next, a title she won in 1915.

Both got 8s on the twelfth and bot
dropped 2O-foot puts for bird IS or
the thirteenth. Thus Mrs. VanderbccF
was a. through the valley, one undc'

Miss Caverly got a bad start, out j,
30, and then continued the win on
what she calls her 'hoodoo hole" tho
eleventh. Here she got a snappy S, the
result of two shots in the creek.
Miss Mcrgaretta Dixon, ono Of the
favored 'cricket seconds" was the only
other entry unmentioned above to
break 100. She was out In At, but slip
ping clubs gave her soggy 81 back.
Mrs. ]. W. Turnbull, conceded n
chance, fell back yesterday with 1O2
while Miss Marjorie Taylor, also of the
Cricket Club, needed 107.

ST. Louis, Sept. 22.-Tsll oaks of
golf fell with a reeounding crash here
and with the fairwsy deserted the echo

the roll of distant thunder.
Francis Ouimet, the hope OF New
England, was the first stately figure to

TO get his par T. and so move forward
against Jesse Guilford, another mighty

Just after Ouimet passed ont, Bob

today was matched against Mrs. W. A

FRUSH CLAIMS TITLE
Says kIIbane Fouled Him Several
Times In Cleveland Bout


Cleveland, o., Sept. 22.-Declaring
that he had been deliberately fouled sew
eral times, Danny Frush, Of baltimore,
who was knocked out by Johnny Kill
bane last Saturday in the contest for
the featherweight championship, issued
a signed statement today in which he.
claims the title. He said he was not
only fouled In the first round, when
Kilbane hit him In the groin with his
knee, but later on when the champion
continued fighting after the bell had
rung and Frush had dropped his arms.
Frush explains that he waited with
his statement until the public had
chance to see the moving pictures of
the bout. He contends he should have
been declared the victor in the first
round or counted out, alleging he would
have been counted out ii the referee did
not think he had been foulcd.
II therefore think l am entitled under
all the rules of the game to the feather
weight championship Of the world and
hereby proclaim myself to be such," the
statement continues. II am now ready
to defend that title against any and all
comers."

Snutles the Scrubs-Creat Scrimmage Bes,oeen
Two Varsity EIeuens

with honors about even. Scoring in
the last set-to was zero but at that some
good runs were made, particularly by
Captain Rex Wray.
Team a, which was composed Of the
varsity line and the second varsity back :
field quartet scored one touchdown
against the scrubs in twenty three
plays. Dwyer, who is making great
bid for the first quartet, rammed
through the left side Of the scrub line
on the twenty third play for touch
down after the varsity had marched the
ball down the field from the twenty
yard line.
It took Captain Rex wray's team
fourteen plays to take the ball over on
the hard working and valiant scrubs.
The diminutive Red and Blue skipper
raced around the scrub right end for
twenty-five yards and touchdown.
The side arm work Of Wray and his
who trickled through the closely guarded
gate an eyeful for the future.
About the time the players were get
ting ready for their shower Heisman
sent Team A against Team b for drill
that lasted half hour. Numerous
times the coaches stopped the play to
show this or that player a mistake he
had made. The varsity line Of Team
A stood up brilliantly against the at
tacks Of Wray and his pals, while the
secondary defensive work OF Team B
stood out glaringly. the members Of the
regular varsity backfeld stopping the
second varsity backs after they had
broken through.
The Two Line. ups
The varsity Team A lined up as fol-
lows: Grave, left end: Genthner, left
tackle; Sutherland, left guard; Day,
center: Cochrane, right guard; Thur

Wilson, left guard; Foley, center |;
Humes, right guard; Piekarski, right
tackle; Greenawalt, right end: Wray,
quarterback; Miller, left halfback I;
Lukas, right halfback. and Mike White
hill, fullback.
1t was the first scrimmage drill Of
the year for Grave and Whitehill and
theyAoth showed considerable. Grave
showed wonderful form getting in and
breaking up plays. while Whitehill's
with the ball was spectacular.
The veteran, Pos Miller, and the first
varsity line drilled like old campaign
ers.
In the second varsity line the work
Of Humes. substitute last season, stood
cut. The big fellow time and again
stopped the backs from the first varsity

DOUBLE-HEADER IN
GR|D|RON OPENING
Harvard's Dual Bill Against
Boston University and Middle
bury Feature Saturday
PITT ELEVEN SELECTED

The first gun Of the 1921 collegiate
football season was fred last Saturday
when the University of Maine clashed
with the Fort Mckinley forces, but the
real high explosives will not be touched
off until the coming Saturday. Most Of
the big college teams stage their first
game on that day, although q few like
Princeton, the Army, Lehigh and Cor
nell do not get under way until Octo-
Der !.
The big noise locally, of course. will
be Penn's inaugural battle with Della
ware, but the unique feature of the day
will be a double header which will be
put over by Harvard. The Crimson will
take on Boston University and Middle
bury College in the same afternoon.
The double header idea is not new
one in football. It is rather common
in the South, Georgia Tech having
staged couple every season. In the
North, however, It is comparatively
new. The dual engagements are good
things. both for the players and the
coaclSs. It gives the candidates n
chance to show what they have and the
coaches may discover a man of varsity
caliber that he otherwise would not
have uncovered. In these twin bills
most every player on the squad gets into
the entertainment.
The two game stunt also has another
advantage. This is at the gate. The
early season attendance at football
games never is full grown and the two
games urge more people out and place
added dollars in the treasury.
The last scrimmagc of the week be-
fore the double header for Harvard will
be held today. All the men are in good
shape except George Owen and Mitchell
Gratwick, two backs, both of whom
were injured In Mondays drill. It, is
not likely that either of these men will
be used Saturday.
Bob Fisher has three quarterbacks
who are putting up terrific battle for
the varsity job. They are Charley
Buell., Jewett johnson and Conlin. Buell.
has the jump on the other two due to
his experience and clever playing last

game on Saturday, but both Johnson
and Conlin are showing up we'll and
will see service at some time during the
