The, end of the game was distinct
surprise both to the players and
crowd 1t was thought that the fourth
period still had about five minutes to

crowd seemed dazed. Stop-watches,

that Umpire Hoban had bungled bad

Though handicapped by the loss of
Mike Palm, sterling quarterback,
Penn State cutrushed West Virginia
IN every period but the third. The
Nittany Lions, however, missed sew
eral chances to roll up greater
score. while costly fumbles paved the
way for both scores by the Noun
taineers.
Takes Ball Across.
In the first quarter Penn State
pushed over touchdown after Helbig
recovered tumble by Nardacci Will
son took the pigskin over on de-
layed pass and also kicked goal for
the extra point.
West Virginia's defense stIffened In
the second quarter, holding the Nit
tany Lions in check once on the
7-yard line and again on the 20-yard
mark.
The tide turned with dramatic sud-
denness toward the close of the third
period. when West Virginia pounced
on afumble by Patton. State quarter
back, on the Iatter's 26-yard line.
Eckberg plunged 8 yards through the
his tracks. On the fourth down.
Simons. standing on Penn States
2o-yard line, tossed pass to Mar
dacci, who sprinted 20 yards around
right end for a touchdown. Eckberg
added a seventh point with his toe.
Soon after the kickoff. one of Will
sons punts was blocked near mid
field. and in the scramble for the pig
skin. Provost, State 1ineman, pounced
on it, only to tumble. and Eckberg re-
covered for West Virginia on the Nit
tany Lion 39-yard line. The period
ended just as .Nardacci, star Noun
taineer halfback, whirled and twisted
13 yards, but when play was resumed
at the opposite end of the field, for
ward pass, Eckber to Barpum, re-
suited In touchdown, Eckberg failed
to kick goal.
Battles Way to Score.
Rallying in desperation, Penn State
battered its way more than SO yards
down the field to tie the score. John
ston, a substitute back. reeled off 35
yards after catching a punt, and from
West Virginia's 26-yard line Wilson
led drive that did not end until the
goal was reached. Schuster, however,
missed the try for point The game
ended soon afterward with Penn State
starting another drive (goalward.

Army cheering section were far out
numbered by civilians.
The Army seems to lack the con-
sistent drive and punch shown by the
Marines in their contest with George
town. While Timberlake Dodd and
Noyes are ground gamers of excep-
tional ability, the work of the team
on defense appeared decidedly ragged.
The abilities of each team in rush
ing the ball are illustrated by the
number of first downs registered
Army had fourteen, of which eight
came in the opening period, while
the Hilltoppers were credited with
eleven The Army gains came chiefly
through hattering the center of the
Hilltop line, while drives off tackle
and wide end runs accounted for the
Hilltop advances.
Georgetown's defensive play was
poor. The line was consistently out
charged and the secondary defense
failed to function creditably. On Of
fense the Hilltoppers ranged from
sparkling brilliance to the sorriest
sort of mediocrity. Jack Hegarty
ran the ball like another Gflroy,
tearing off several splendid 40
yard gains through broken fields. De
Gassis hit the line hard and seemed
to gain consistently. Adams sue
ceeded half d dozen times In Sitting
pass.
The Hilltoppers threw away sew
eral fine opportunities to score by
reason of fumbling. Du Four was
the worst offender in this respect,
his bobble on the 6-yard line on
the first down during the second
period being especially costly.
The game was singularly free from
penalties. A few times the bail was
set back on one or the other of the
teams for offside play, but there was
no holding called against either
eleven.
Fourth Loss in Row for G. U.
Yesterdays setback is the fourth
in row to be suffered by the Hill
toppers. 1t is a record In George
town athletics for some decades. Next
Saturday the Hilltoppers go to the
Hub. where they engage Boston Col
lege. probably their chief rival in
all branches of athletics.
The Soldiers in the first period
scored their first touchdown on a
5-yard forward pass from Noyes to
Undertake, after a series of line
crashes had brought the pigskin TO
the shadow of the Blue and Gray
goal posts. The second tally came
in the same period, Hahn romping
through a wide hole in the left side
of Georgetown's line. The only Hill
top score came in the second period.
Byrne, standing on his own thirty
yard line, heaved the leather to He
garty, who twisted and squirmed his
way to the Soldiers line.
Evening star., 1923-10-28

just as the third period ended Har-
ward missed its first chance to score
when Hammond's kick from the 22-
yard line went wild. Again, as the
foul tn period opened, a tremendous
25-yard forward pass. Hammond to
Hill. over the Dartmouth goal line
was broken up.
These two scoring chances marked
the high-water mark of the Crimson
attack, which ebbed before the re-
newed onrush of the Dartmouth
backs. Again the Green was down in
Harvard territory. Capt. Cy Aschen-
back dropped back to the 35-yard
line and booted beautiful kick from
placement high and fair over the
Crimson goal posts, making the score
16 to 0.
Dartmoutn's ofYense earned it nine
first downs against three for Har-
ward, all of the Crimson's being made
in the great effort in the third period.

GRUMBLE GOES
WITH EVERY
TRADE
Colonel Rupert Comments on
Depreciation "Other Side"
Alleges.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Col. Rup-
pert, president of the American
League champions, still has hopes
that Eddie ColIi1s will come to the
Yankees.
THE trouble with the. Collins
deal, as with all Others" says the
Yankee magnate, ''is that any play
ers offered are Immediately found
fault with by the other side.
Its always that way in a trade.
l remember a few seasons ago. one
of the White Sox officials said they
were willing to talk trade for any
of the players. 1 asked If that
meant Collins, too. 1t did, was
informed. When I found they did
mean business. 1 told Higgins.
'Peckinpaugh. with us then, was
at that time the best shortstop in
the American League. When the
players to figure in the deal were
mentioned, the Sox's official de-
clared he couldn't see Peck at. all,
and didn't think much of him. And
that's the way it goes.
"The only chance you have to
put over a trade is when the other
fellow thinks he's getting the best
of it. No trade is ever made when
both parties think they are getting
an even break"

{ VICTORY
So Says Tom Gibbons About
Philadelphia Youngster Bat
thing Harry Greb.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Tom Glib
bons. one of the prospective oppo-
nents for Jack Dempsey, is one of
many who give Tommy Lougnran
more than an even chance to de-
throne Harry Greb as the American
1ight-heavyweight champion when
they clash tonight in the Garden
over the fifteen-round trail.
Tom likes Loughran's youth,
gameness, and the nifty left hook he
usually wins his fights with. HaV-
ing fought Greb three times, Glib
bons ought to know what he is talk
ing about.
You can't bully youth in the ring,
and here's one kid who has a good
chance to beat Greb," declared Glib
bons yesterday. Il like Toms left;
1t is a peach. And he can sock
plenty with it. He can take plenty
and has every other qualification
that q good fighter should have. He
may tire Greb and come on and win.
Every second he is in there he has
q good chance of winning.
'Greb was at his very best when
he fought me last year. but ] think
he's slipping and opportunity may
be knocking at Loughran's door
He's got a chance of lifetime and
he should make the most of it,"

Incentive for Yankees.

HUSTON and Col
onel Rupert feel that no
~ Yankee player can afford to
remain indifferent to the success
of the team. In this connection we
recall a conversation the former
had with Joe Bush and Whltey
Witt the day after the world S
series ended.
d "Think it over, boys" said he
eve are going into our new park
next season. If everybody hustles
and we are fortunate enough to WIN
another pennant, think what an IN
dividual cut will amount to in a
worlds series. Why, it will be
more than a seasons salary for
many of you. Is it or is 1t not
something to work for?"
It is not difficult to follow the
reasoning of the Yankee colonies
Their salary list is the highest IN
baseball. If the Yankees do not
win a pennant they are overpald;
if they do they will be richly re-
warded. 1t is up to the players
They will get big money-if they
earn it.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1923-01-30


Champions get good money.
Yankee stars were well paid IN
1921. Their employers raised the
ante in 1922 for several athletes
who did not earn the money. The
worlds series collapse involved
others. The Yankee Colonies then
realized that they could go
too far in pampering tempera-
mental stars. "Show me" is their
slogan now.
It is doubtful whether any of the
clubs high-salaried men will re-
ceive an increase this year, though
several of the lesser lights will get
more money. Two Of the dlsap-
pointments-Ruth and Mays-are
already under contract and Will get
the same salaries they drew last
year. At least three other regu-
lars" may be cut.
