PENN AND YALE
MAY MEET AGAIN
Or. orton Expects to Arrange
Meeting Between 2-MiIe Relay
Teams for Legion Meet
RED AND BLUE ANXIOUS

The University Of PENNSYLVANIA and
the Yale two mile teams that ran such
stirring relay race in the Penn
carnival may come together again il
plans which George Orton. director Of
the relays, has in mind materialize.
Yesterday afternoon Orton wired the
gradual" manager of athletics at New
Haven TO send his two.mile team which
won the championship from Ames and
Penn 10 the American Legion games
scheduled for June on Franklin Field
In a letter that followed the telegram
0rton made it plain that he would
schedule feature race between the Red
and Blue and Blue quartets.
Ever since the relays tho Penn
students and graduates interested in
athletics have been talking in n
general unsatisfactory way about the
defeat suffered by Lawson Robert

followers claim that the race would
have been won easily had not George

race. He was forced to go back after

able space despite his brilliant running

dropping Of the baton by Meredith.

Favored at Penn
When news Of the proposed race
spread around through Penn circles
there was widespread voiCing of opin
ions that new record for the distance
would be placed on the books If the rae,
should be held. The worlds record
made by team from the same club ol
college is : minutes 80 seconds. Tht
mark set up by the combined Oxford
Cambridge team in 1920 of { minutes
10 2.5 seconds has never been PLACED
on the records because the members o
tho team were not oil of an individual
club or college. Yale won the event n
the relays in Z minutes SO 4-5 seconds

O'Brien, Coke. Siomens and Campbell
The four members of the Penn team
which ran in the race all agreed tina
they would ''surc ike 70 get anothe

league contests scattered through the

by greatest we do not mean the one
most perfectly played. Rather we mean
the ono that carried the greatest amount
Of drama and stirred up the leaping
pulses TO greater action. y
And our vote here IL for the final
world series game between the Giants
and Red Sox at Boston in October,
1912.
Drama Incarnate
THIS contest was drama incarnate.
L Seven games had already been
played. with three victories for each
club and one draw.
The struggle to win four games had
been terrific. despite the fact that the
Red Sox, through Joe Woods brilliant
pitching, had won three out of the first
four.
In the deciding game Christy Mathew E
son was sent against Hugh Bedient.
The Giants scored in the third and
would have added another run except
for Hoopers brilliant catch over the
left field wire that robbed Larry Doyle
OF home run, as great a catch as any
man ever saw.
When the seventh started il began 10
look as IL Mathewson was on his way
to n shutout, as he was pitching with all
his ancient greatness.
But in the seventh. with two out,
Jake Stahl lifted an easy fly to left.
There was an outfield mixup and the
ball fell safe. A base on balls to Wag-
ner followed, and then Henriksen, q
young pinch hitter, chopped one down
the. left field line which stirred up tht
white chalk.
Thnt unexpected blow tied the score
and when the ninth inning was finshct
the battle was still in knot after eight
days of rugged warfare.
The Final Inning
THE tenth inning was as replete will

THIS was the deciding blow. Mathew.
