Pennsylvania was the first
Eastern team to tackle Chicago.
That was way back in 1898 wheh
Walter Kennedy, brilliant
quarterback, led his team to Phil
adelphia and was trampled, 20
to II.
In 1899 two Eastern teams met
Chicago. Kennedy was again
captain and in return clash
with the Quakers, was satisfied
nth a 5-to-5 tie. However,
Brown came along and won from
Chicago, II to 6, in no uncertain
Lalner.
Again in 1900 two games were
played with Eastern teams,
Brown and Penn once more being
on the card. Brown went to Chi
cago and, on old Marshall Field,
before the present Stagg Field
was in existence, the Rhode ISL
anders won, il to 8. Chicago
la.er on in the season went to
Philadelphia and was fairly
slaughtered, 41 to 0.
Again Chicago Loses.
THE late Jimmy Sheldon, a
brilliant gridiron performer,
- was the Chicago captain in
1901 and his team played q won
derful game against Pennsylvania
N Chicago. Penn won, III to o,
but it was a battle that might
have gone either way.
After a years rest from meet
ing Eastern teams, Chicago came
to West Point in 1908 primed
for victory. That was a fine col
lection of athletes that faced the
soldiers on the windy heights be-
side the noble Hudson. In the
lineup were Tiny Maxwell, Wal
ter Eckersall, Hugo Bezdek, Cat
lin, Parry, and Ellsworth. When
the final whistle sounded West
Point had barely won, 10 to 9,
and still Chicago had to win It's
first victory over an Eastern
team.
Not till 1907 did CHICAGO AGAIN
meet a team from the seaboard.
That year Pop Warner took his
Carlisle Indians, marvellous
collection OF players, TO Chicago
and ran away with the Maroon.
A series Of four games with
Cornell began In 1908, the first
game being played in Chica1o.
Wallie Steffen, now the Carnegie
Tech coach, played quarterback
and led that Chica7o eleven In a
kard-fought 6-to-6 tie. The follow
ing year, at Ithaca, the same score
resulted.

There are rumors here that Steve
Barchet. Navy's crack fullback, Is
not In sood condition and may not
perform. but the chances are that
he will be in the lineup when the
whistle blows. II he is compelled
to leave, though. there will be q
