PENN TEAM FACES
 HEAVY SCHEDULE
J. Of P. Has Inexperienced Line
 and a Veteran BaCkGeld

Philadelphia. Sept, 29 Pl-The University of Pennsylvania foot ball team faces the heaviest sched- ulo in it's modern history with an inexperienced but potentially powcr- ful line and veteran backheld which ranks among the best in the east.
 Having gotten some of the kinks out of its system by trouncing uranius in the opening game last Saturday Coach Lou Young's grid iron forces are preparing this week 10 meet Swarthmore In contest that will be tho last of tuning-up character before the Red and Blue tackles Brown, Yale, Chicago and Illinois on successive Saturdays,
 After q short .cathing spell. in which Havorford will furnish the op- position. Pennsylvania comes back to wind up tho championship against Pittsburgh and Cornell.
 Young and his board of strategy have teed of a plentiful array of material 10 withstand the effects Of this list Of battles but there is every evidence in tho Quaker camp that the young head coach is fashioning a formidable combination. It prom ises to measure well up 10 last years standard, when Pennsylvania shared eastern honors with Dartmouth and Yaln. not tasting defeat until a trip to the Pacific coast that resulted in setback at the hands Of California.
 The chief problem this season for Young and his head line coach, Lud Wray, has been the development of a forward wall 10 offset the heavy losses incurred by graduation. lt has been no easy task so far 10 find successors 10 such stars as Ed Nc Ginley. all-Ameriran tackle; Bill Coleman and Alton Papworth, star guards; and Clark Craig and Ted F'airchild, regular ends last year, but the task is being well handled,
 Around Captain Joe Wilson al tackle and Karl Robinson as pivot man, q new and powerful line has been built. The wings, especially, seem well taken care of with Singer and Thayer. two first string substi- tutes of 1924 and letter men, holding the regular posts,
 Behind the line. there is an em- barrassment of riches, for six Neter' ans have rctG ned while the only notable loss is that of Req McGraw. captain and star all-around offensive threat last season. In addition there is some excellent new material among the ball carriers.
 At fullback, Al krucz, whose ac- curate left foot accounted for many of Pennsylvania points last season. is a fixture and triple threat. Al Loith, a converted halfback, has been assigned the task of calling signals and directing the field strategy. Douglass and Lizard, two other veterans. have the call at the halfback positions, although they lave keen rivals for regular posts in Charley Rogers and Thomas Free man, two sophomores who have de- yeloped fast. Rogers started the Ursinus game with Douglass.

Until this year Bluege vas re- gardcd as just fair hitter but dan gerous. This year he has graduated into he select circle of the leading battcrs of the American league. His snapry swing gets distance to his drives.
 The position of Trayner in the National is not unlike that of Blucgc in the American. Most experts re- gard him as the premier.
 Traynor and Rluegc are built much along the same irer, both being rangy. six-footors, thc ideal build for a third -sacker.
 Traynor bats and throws right handed. His swat record gives him an edge on BInose in that depart mcnt of play.
 While great fielder, rivaling Bluege. there is difference in style r. is the unusual for Bluege to knock down ball. while Traynor is inclined to that method. His rifle like arm is a most valuable asset.
 No drive is too difficult for Tray nor or Blucge hut the Washington third-sacker Is the more accurate. He invariably comes up clean with the ball, while Traynor has ten dcncy to knock down his drives and retrieve them.
 am a great admirer of Traynor and Rluegc and feel that draw decision would be a popular verdict.

 were completed for the entertain-
 ment of the boys in New York be-
 fore the time for tho start of tho game, X trip to Bronx park and visit to the zoo there is included m the itinerary and several other at- fractions arc being planned for the
 boys who worked so hard 10 come through on the top of the boys league.
 All tho big stars of the game, Babe Ruth included, will be in the lineups of the teams and good battle is anticipated. It had been the plan
 of the Rotary club to have the boys witness world series game. but this is out of the question because of the fact that both Washington and Pittsburgh are too far away to get to the game and back home again that night
 Plans for the day when completed will be announced in the papers so Ithe boys who are eligible to take the "trip are warned 10 watch the col- umns for complete details regarding the program It will be found nec-
 essary to start from New Britain at

 too carly for the eager youngsters who are waiting to enjoy the fruits
 of their well earned victories. All the Sunday suits are being cleaned Iand pressed and mothers proud of their boys. are getting clean shirts.
 collars. socks and pretty neckties ready for Saturday.
 New Britain people are warned that if on Saturday afternoon,
 great volume of noise is heard from the direction of New York, they are
 not to get excited, because it will be
 simply the boys of the Paradise Park baseball team whooping it up
 for the big league players and for
 the Rotary club members who made
 the trip possible for them.

 Cunningham is former feather weight champion Of the amateur ranks of the state and if the local boy succeeds in getting the decision over him, he will have downod one of the most clever men in the state amateur lightweight division,

New York, Sept. % Ll-B Barring fight between the Browns and Tygers for third place in the American and a Brooklyn Boston skirmish for fifth in the National the major leagues baseball stand ings today appeared fixed for the year with only two teams in the same position they held at the close of last years races.
 Washington and Cleveland, first and sixth in the American rcspec- lively have been the only clubs 10 parallel their pace of season ago, Every team in the National league will finish In a new berth. Unless the Phlllles pnt on closing rush accompanied by a further decline of the Cubs. This would provide op- portunity for Fletcher's entry to vault from the cellar 10 seventh place. where they were perched last October.
 The champion Pirates closed in 1924 in third place; New York. now second. was on top; the third place Reds were fourth; while the Cards, completing the 1925 first division picture last year were sixth. Bos- ton rose from the cellar and Is sure Of better position than it held last year, while the Cubs, now seventh, were fifth under Killefer.
 Two second division clubs of 1924 have broken through 10 the first section this year and a share in the world series receipts. They are the Athletics in inc American. finishing second this season as against fifth last year, and the Cardinals in the National, who rose from sixth place in 1924 10 take fourth peg this year. They crowd cd out two second place cluba, the Yankees dropping this year 10 seventh in the American and the Robins to fifth in the National.
 The first division, as constituted today. was subject to only one possible change. The White Sox still saw a slender chance of climbing back to fourth place by closing with a rush against Cleveland 10 profit by the possible collapse of the Tygers against the Browns.
 Only three games were played yesterday The Tygers divided q twin hill with the Tanks taking the fl si f-3 and dropping tho second [ Babe Ruth bagged brace of h.'n' rs, one in each contest, 10 run Ii -"nsoHs total to tWenty-four.

(BY BILLY ENANS}

Third base is going 10 be well taken care of in the 1925 world series.
 In Hluege Washington offers the best third -sackcr in the American league. Pie" Traynor of Pitts burgh is to my way of thinking the best bet in the National.
 Bluege of Washington arrived with a vengeance this year. He has given great promise since his Ameri- can league debut. His remarkable play this season has given him an edge on Joe Dugan or New York. generally regarded as the premier third baseman of the Johnsonian organization.
 Bluege bats and throws right handed. His fielding ability is un- canny. He goes to his right or left with cqnal ease and grace. He seldom fumbles a ball. always com ing up clean with ground hit. His work on bunts is marvellous. He comes in fast and invariably makes the play with one hand.
