Nittany Lions Are
Anxious to Beat
Pennsylvania Team

STATE COLLEGE, Pa, Nov. Ii
The University of Pennsylvania foot
ball team defeated the Navy, 13 to Z;
the Navy defeated Penn State ID to 0,
which would indicate that Penn is just
about three touchdowns better than
Penn State. The tilt between the two
institutions on Franklin Field will Just
about decide the merits of comparative
scores as an indication of strength on
the gridiron.
In this game with the Red and Blue,
the Nittany Lions have double in
terest. They want to win the game
from their old rivals for the games
sake, and they want to win because
they feel that by SO doing they can
partially make up for that middle de-
feat in Washington a week ago. For
those two reasons, Penn State players
are sure to put everything they have
into the game in Philadelphia next
Saturday.
Penn State returns to the Pennsyl-
vania schedule after an absence of one
year. However, the Nittany Lions
visited Franklin Field last fall when
they defeated the Navy in one of the
best games of the season, and this will
mark the fourth straight visit to the
City of Brotherly Love for football
encounter. For that reason, Franklin
Field is far from being unfamiliar to
Penn State teams

Not only did Higgins take the meas
urc Of Elmer McLane, the winner OF
the junior national championship last
year. but Columbia, which finished
fourth in this quadrangular run year
ago. easily accounted for the team
prize. The order of finish was: CO.
iumbia. 33; Cornell, 81; Dartmouth,
90; Pennsylvania, SO.
Because Of its brilliant performance,
the Columbia team will enter the ma
tional title run on November 27, with
an excellent chance to win. AS for
Higgins, it would seem that he merely
has to retain the form he displayed
yesterday TO make him the outstanding
contender for individual honors.
Higgins Leads by Ten Yards
In leading the field of thirty yester-
day Higgins was called upon TO fash
the brand OF speed and endurance
that won for him the two-n,ile inter
collegiate championship of America
only six months ago. AS it was, he
ran the heart out of the sturdy Nc
s- IN the final 200 yards of the long
race TO get the verdict by about ten
yards, in the fast time of 80 minutes
66 seconds. The record for the course,
established last year by Robert Brown,
Of Cornell, is 1920 $40. Bob Moore,
OF Columbia, was third, fifty yards be-
hind McLane, and J. G. Young, of
Dartmouth, was fourth.
After the first lap it was clear that
the race was duel between Higgins
nd ri aos
the line for the first three miles Hig-
gins, McLane, Moore and Young were
punched, about 100 yards ahead of the
rest of the pack. A few moments later
Higgins and McLane began to draw
away from their rivals, and when they
passed over the hilltop McLane was
leading Higgins by apout two yards.
The Fight to the Finish
Thus they raced over early part of
the last lap, and when the leaders hove
into sight about 400 yards from the
finish line McLane was still leading
the Columbia runner by close margin
Higgins rated behind until within 200
yards of the tape, when he drew up on
even terms with the Penn man, and
then the battle for supremacy was on.
The pair came on up the slight incline
at the speed of sprinters, neither fall
terlng until nearly 1Oo yards had been
covered.
McLane was not up to such race as
Higgins gave and he slowed down when
The limit of his endurance had been
reached. Higgins finished with unbro-
Eer stride and appeared quite fresh.
lie saved much strength by the fault
less manner in which he took the hur-
dies, whereas the obstacles appeared to
bother McLane.
1t was officially stated that McLane
had run twenty yards further than the
rest of the field, due to the misplace
ment of one Of the marking flags, but,
although the PENNSYLVANIA youth ran q
fne race. it is doubtful if he could
have beaten Higgins under any condi-
tions.

The title holder covered the distance
IN 34:52 4-5. breaking the course rec
ord OF 36:47 2-5, established only a
week ago by August Eager, OF the same
club, who on that occasion won the
junior Met title. In yesterdays race
Eager was beaten for fourth honors by
John Phillips, the Paulist A. C. veteran.
The course used by the A. A. U. run
ners is fully 1900 rds longer than

points, and the Millrose A. C. barriers
gathered fourth place with "a points.
Rltoia was the favorite. Few believed
that he could be beaten, but there were
many who were of the opinion that the
great little Finn would not be permit
ted to start. Ritola with Prim and
Erickson, ell of the Finnish American
a. T., were suspended last Thursday
oy the registration committee because
tney did not appear to answer ques-
tlons affecting their eligibility.

Descamps Makes
Plea for Acquittal
Of Battling Six

PARIS, Nov. II (By The Associated

meeting Of the French Boxing Fedora
tion at which the Senegalese, Battling
Sikh, was disqualified for nine months
for his attack on NJ. Cuny, manager of
the boxer Prunier.
Cuny Joined Descamps. manager of
Georges Carpenter, in entreating for
an acquittal, saying: "Of course, it is
deplorable, but is he entirely respon-
sible? He holds title too heavy for
him. He is child who has been al
lowed to play with a gun. Don't rob
him of the chance of recovering from
Sikh that which he has lost" he pleaded
Various proposals for the length of
disqualification were put forward,
ranging from two months to two years,
and the nine months sentence was
finally accepted as compromise.
The writer declares the color ques-
tion was in no way involved and that
was not even considered. He proposes
that, as Sikh volunteered for military
service in 1914, he might be given
amnesty" in celebration of Armistice
Day.
The culprit himself aroused certain
sympathy before judgment was an
nounced, declaring: when was plain

tricks; they were only laughed at.

situation philosophlcally, saying that

To Grown Cowboy
King at Garden
On Tuesday Night

During the last seven days this town
has been treated to a contest that is
novel and also one of the most ex-
citing and interesting tina. ever came
within this way. This is the COWBOYS
world championship, in progress at
MadIson Square Garden, and which will
wind up next Tuesday evening. En-
tered IN this contest were 100 of the
greatest cowboys in the world-men
whose names were famous throughout
the world for their daring stunts on
horseback and fighting the dangerous
steer. Their marvellous deeds at the
various rodeos held throughout the
west have been depicted on the screen.
Now they are here in reality, and their
work has carried the town by storm.
1t is contest that calls for evsrv
ounce of daring, skill and quick think
ing a man possesses. They all came
from their Western homes to fight out,
once for all, the question of suprem
acy, for the final winner will be ac-
claimed the cowboy champion of the
world. To capture these honors the
victor must be the greatest bronc
rider, most adept with the lariat, fast
est IN throwing steer. roping a calf
and master of the wild steer. The
contest has been so strenuous that the
list of worthy claimants for the honors
has been considerably reduced.
The contest has now simmered down
to less than one-third of the original
entrants. The competition has become
keener, and the contestants have
thrown caution to the winds, so deter
mined are they to get slice of the
$4,000 IN prize money hung up by Tex
Austin. The daily winners have gath
cred in some of this small fortune, but
the main sum will be awarded to the
fortunate victor The rivals will be
seen in action this afternoon and even
ing at special show for the Actors
Fund, and, in addition, viii Rogers,
Fred Stone and Douglas Fairbanks will
compete for special trophy.
The wonderful riding of the cow
girls has created great hit. In fact,
many of the steady attendants don't
hesitate to claim that the fair ones
exec the men when it comes down to
mastering the fiery bronc These girls
are also fighting for the title of worlds
champion, which is now held by Miss
Mabel Strickland. The latter is con-
sidered the greatest horsewoman in the
world, but her dainty rivals are giving
ser close race, and her title will be
Banging in the balance until the last
frisl is finished.
The contest viii continue tomorrow
and Tuesday. On the latter evening
the decision Of the judges will be an
nounced and there w ! be coronation
of the worlds greatest cowboy. At the
fame time, the contest has proven that
the East loves to see the courageous
men and women of the West in their
most daring sports.

ColumbiaX-Co

William Cox, of Mercersburg Acad-

time of 13 minutes seconds, winning
by twenty-five yards from Russell
Swede, team mate, while Robert Ma
lone, still another Mercersburg runner,
stepped into third place.
Needless to say, Mercersberg won the
team trophy The Penns ylvania boys
rolled up low score of 81 points, as
against 80 for New Rochelle High
School, which was second. Schenec-
tady High was third with 90 points.
Cox is one of the fastest schoolboy
milers in the country, and demon
strated his superiority over Swede, who
is brother of Allan Swede, former
two-nlile national Intercollegiate cham
plon, in manner that stamps him as
a likely prospect for national school
