TWO BIG ATHLETIC
EVENTS MAY CLASH

One of the early philosophers very
sagely remarked that there is no joy
without annoy. The merits of the
observation will not be debated by
those who have had any appreciable
experience of life.
Least Of all will it be debated in
Pittsburgh at the present time. For
are not the Pirates for the first time
in aeons out in front in the National

One would think that no city could
ask Of the gods a favor more signal
Yet from Pittsburgh comes a dark,
wafling moan.

on collision with the Pitt-West vir.
ginia game. With stadium of her

Forbes Field, the home of the Pirates
But this is not what is troubling the
Panther athletic authorities.
They know, as, in fact, every one
knows, that as between a foot sball
game, between the Panthers and
Mountaineers, and the first world
series fight that the city has staged
since 1909, the sport-loving crowd will
not even stop to figure what their
choice shall be. Consequently, the
University of Pittsburgh foot ball sta

be certain to be mighty uninspiring

The financial significance of such a
situation will be appreciated by any
None who has ever been concerned with
the athletic budget of great uni.
yersity.
What probably will be done if worst
comes to worst-that is to say, if the
world series comes to Pittsburgh-is
to have the game of foot ball between
West Virginia and Pitt played in the
morning, leaving the afternoon free

Then, as one bright Pittsburgher re.

Georgetown to the Highway Bridge
are sure TO prove a drawing card.
This course as selected by H. A.

to be an admirable one for speed boat
racing Here the river is fairly

wall and on the lower bridge. An
unobstructed view of the finish also

In the first set, with the score stand
ing 5-3 for the Alderton-Olmsted
team, the Hatchetites came to the
front with three straight games, Civ
ing them the advantage on the deuced
set. The ultimate winners frightened
up, however. and again brought the
score to deuce, only to have the lead
snatched from them at 7-6. With
dogged determination they fought
their way from behind for the second
time and with a sudden squirt cap
tured the 18th and 10th games for the
set at 81.
Things broke even in the second set
up until the seventh game, when the
Business Central combination uncork-
ed some brilliant plays and captured
three straight games and the match.
Miss Olmsted's steady service and
deep court lobs assisted materially in
gaining the hard-earned victory. The

some very effective teamwork and
seemed always on the point of snatch
ing the slim lead from their opponents.
