Today's Big Foot Ball Game
on Franklin Field.
HARVARD VS. PENNSY
CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL BOYS TOO
HEAVY FOR EASTERNS.
Getaway Day at Aqueduct ? Golf at
Chevy Chase and Atlantic City
?Good Bowling.
Philadelphia holds the center of the stage
In the foot ball drama today, Harvard
meeting Pennsyvlanla In the first of the
four biggest games In the east, the other
three being Yale-Princeton, Harvard-Yale
and Army vs. Navy. There Is little choice
between the Crimson and the Quakers in
form shown so far, both having been uncer
tain and unsatisfactory. Of the two. Har
vard's playing has been the less consistent,
but to offset this it is believed the Harvard
team has the greater possibilities If it can
get together and strike the gait of which
its material indicates that it is capable.
The Quaker team in its only big game thus
far, that with Columbia, showed a pro
nounced tendency to fumble and otherwise
go up In the air. Harvard adherents think
their team will be cooler than the Quakers
today, but, on the other hand, the Penn
sylvanians say the baptism of defeat re
ceived from Columbia has had the purify
ing effect needed, that there will be no
more games lost through becoming rattled,
and they say their material is as good as
Harvard's. Whatever energy and unison
have been shown by the two teams have
in each case been largely spasmodic, and
neither has shown the sustained strength in
defense that Yale and Princeton have. Un
less one or both teams take the sudden
brace that sometimes comes to teams-rfoot
ball teams In' particular?today's game
promises to be a good deal of a scramble,
with mistakes by which the more alert side
will profit.
Harvard has bigger ends than Pennsyl
vania, men more useful in breaking up in
terference than their lighter oppositcs and
just as fast, but no spryer in following the
ball or heading off plays. The tackles are
pretty well matched in point of size and
aggressiveness, while in the center Penn
sylvania's trio has displayed more steadi
ness and more ginger than Harvard's three
middle men. Harvard certainly has the
better of the situation at quarter back with
Captain Marshall playing there. Marshall
is a better general than the Pennsylvania
quarter, heavier, more experienced and one
of the best men in the game at running
back kicks. Nichols of Harvard, a very
fast half back, also is an adept at running
back kicks and just as fast in scrimmage
work. However, Smith of Pennsylvania
can bring back kicks with a rush, and he
Is the hardest line plunger on either team,
a valuable and dangerous man and one who
can stand lots of work. Hurley of Harvard
and Drake of Pennsylvania are both fairly
good men in the secondary defense. Schoel
kopf, the Harvard full back. Is of the heavy
line breaking sort, and Bennett of Pennsyl
vania, if he plays, Is about as good and
handy an all-around man. If Reynolds
plays behind the line for Pennsylvania he
will lighten the Pennsylvania back field,
but strengthen the kicking department. He
and Lemoyne of Harvard can boot the ball
long distances. In the way of handling
kicks the Harvard backs have done much
the cleaner work, and If the Quakers are
to cope with them in this regard they must
needs have improved materially.
Yale plays Syracuse today and Prince
ton meets Lafayette. Neither Eli nor
Tiger expects more than good practice.
An important game is that between Dart
mouth and Amherst, and the game In
this city between the Indians and George
town is likely to be one of the best of
the day. The schedule follows:<
Indians agt. Georgetown, at Washing
ton.

PENNSYLVANIA VS. HARVARD.
Everything in Readiness for Big Foot
Ball Contest.
PHILADELPHIA. November 7.?Pennsyl
vania and Harvard will meet on Franklin
Field this afternoon in their annual foot
ball contest. The day dawned hazy, but
just cold enough for ideal foot ball weather.
While neither Harvard nor Pennsylvania
has shown consistent form this fall, the
game should prove exceedingly close and
exciting, with but little to choose between
the two teams. Harvard averages ten
pounds more to the man than the Quakers,
but the latter have shown more speed than
tile Cambridge boys.
Coach Williams and Captain Metzger of
Pennsylvania are hopeful, but not over
confident of victory, while Assistant Coach
Lewis and Captain Marshall of the crimson
eleven do not hesitate to say that Pennsyl
vania must play better foot ball than she
has shown this fall to win today's game.
Play will begin at 2 o'clock. William H.
Edwards of Princeton will act as referee;
Matthew McClung of Lehigh, umpire, and
E. A. Whiting of Cornell, lineman.
CENTRALS WON AGAIN.
Defeated the Light Easterns in Well
Played Game.
Although the Eastern High School foot
ball team met defeat yesterday at the
hands of the Central team by a score of
3!) to 0, it was the best game played this
season in the high school championship
series. The game was played at Van Ness
Park. As in the former games, the East
ern team was handicapped by t'ne heavy
weight of the opponents. The game was
free from all rough playing. Central won
the toss and selected the western goal, giv
ing them the advantage, as the wind was
from that direction. Linthicum, for East
ern, kicked off to Central's ten-yard line,
Cunningham receiving the ball and return
ing it fifteen yards before he was downed.
The Central team scored Its first touch
down through the successful line plunges
of Cunningham, Kipp and Kelly and the
t wenty-five-yard run of Snow. Cunning
ham kicked off to Eastern, and Dunnington,
the midget quarter back, received the ball,
running it back fifteen yards before he
was caught. Eastern lost the ball soon, as
it could not gain the necessary five yards.
After receiving the ball the Central team
made runs of from ten to thirty yards and
thus scored another touchdown. Cunning
ham. as In the former, kicked a good goal,
the score at this stage being 12 to 0. After
the ball had been returned to the field East
ern lost It by a fumble on its twenty-flve
yard line. In getting'possession of the ball
the Central team managed to get Its third
touchdown. .
On the next kick off Field did the stunt
for Eastern, sending the ball to Central's
fifteen-yard line and Hansberger returning
it 15 yards. After several downs, Kelly
ran the ball around the end for a gain of
fifty yards, and after a few minutes of
play again viade a run of 25 yards. Snow
made a good run around the end and
scored another touchdown. Score, 22 to 0.
With less than two minutes to play Mac
dona Id kicked off to Eastern, Oyster re
ceiving the ball and returning It 10 yards.
On the next down Hallam secured the ball
and ran with It 40 yards before he was
downed. Through successful line plunges
t lie ball was advanced 6 yards more; then
lime was called. Eastern took a brace In
the second half and allowed the Central
boys to score but 17 more points. Linthl
cum kicked off to Central's 15-yard line.
Burton receiving tho ball and returning It
to the center of the field. Central started
to hit the Eastern line for gains of five to
ten yerds, which, with a run of ten yards,
it scored another touchdown. Kipp kick
ed off for Central and sent the ball over
the goal post, but the ball had to be re
turned, thus giving Eastern the privilege
of kicking off anywhere back of the twen
ty-flve-yard line. A drop kick was tried by
Linthlcum. tho ball going to the fifty-yard
lins, where Kipp returned It 5 yards. The
Central team again used the line plunges
and made successful gains of from ten to
thirty yards, which secured It another
touchdown. The score, 33 to 0. Field re
ceived the ball on the kick off and carried
it 10 yards down the field, where Eastern
lost it on downs. The Central boys scored
another touchdown through the end run
and line plunges by Macdonald and Snow.
After this touchdown neither side did much,
time then being called. The playing of
Cunningham, Snow and Kipp for Central
was the feature of the game. For Eastern

LAST DAY AT AQUEDUCT.
In Close Finishes Five Favorites Meet
Disaster.
Close finishes marked the closing day of
the fall meeting at Aqueduct yesterday af
ternoon. Five out of six favorites were
beaten, and the thoroughly chilled crowd
went home hoping that the game would be
easier at Jamaica, where the final meeting
of the season begins today.
The Stony Brook Stakes, for three-year
olds and upward, at a mile and a sixteenth,
was cut to pieces, six of the original en
tries being withdrawn. The talent showed
a strong fancy _for old Carbuncle, and made
him an even money favorite, at the same
time allowing the Belmont cast-off, Namtor,
to go back to threes. The race was between
them, and the result was In doubt until Ful
ler put up a stronger finish than Redfern,
Namtor winning by a nose In 1:30. Gavlota,
9 to 1, was third, eight lengths back.
Fuller In the first race, a handicap for all
ages, at six furlongs, also carried off the
honors. He had the mount on Jacob
Worth's crack three-year-old filly Mamie
Worth, who was the choice at 13 to 10.
Young Henry and Ascension were both
quoted at 11 to 5. Fuller made the pace, as
usual, with Mamie Worth, with Ascension
bard after her. When the stretch was
fc?g
reached Fuller wisely selected a dry strip
in the middm of"the track and extended
the St. George filly to the limit. Although
Hicks made a bolifcbid with Ascension. Ful
ler had somethingup his sleeve in the final
strides, and Mamie Worth won by a neck
in 1:14 1-5. Ascension beating Young Henry
by two lengths.
A poor lot wont to the post for the sec
ond race, for-plat?rs. at a mile, with Nine
Spot the favonite at 11 to 5. When the
gate went up both Nine Spot and Arden.
who had been backed down from 20 to 1
to twelves, were away poorly, while Al
paca. 12 to 1, shot to the front with a
terrific burst of speed. Cottage Maid, 15
to 1, finally drew away and got the ver
dict in a hot drive by three parts of a
length. Alpaca lasted long enough to be
second, half a length before Widow's
Mite, 10 to 1, who was the same distance
before Squanto, the latter beating Nine
Spot a head. The time was 1.43.
Jack McGinnis got In a killing In the
third race, for maiden two-year-olds, at
six and a half furlongs, when his gelding
Raider galloped home three lengths to
the good with 10 to 1 about him. He
made the bulk of the running and was
timed in 1.22 3-5. John Daly's Flag Offi
cer, second choice, moved up from the
ruck in the last quarter and was second,
two lengths before Belle of Portland, 7
to 1. The favorite. Sonoma Belle, was a
head back. Tithonic was jammed to the
rail on the turn and Gannon got a hard
fall, but luckily escaped serious injury.
David Gideon's Blytheness, second
choice, took the fifth race, for beaten
two-year-olds, at five furlongs, in a fierce
drive by a head. O'Neill was the master
of Romanelli, who rode the second horse,
M. Theo, 7 to 1. Billy Oliver's Shady Ead,
a 20 to 1 shot, got third money, two
lengths before Sweet Tone. Agnes Bren
nan, the favorite, was soundly beaten.
The race was run over the straightaway
course in 1 3-5.
The wind-up, a handicap for all ages, at
a mile, was not only a final body blow for
the form players, but also caused a howl
from the backers of Sheriff Bell when
the presiding judge placed Bill Daly's
Illyria, 9 to 1, in front of him by a nose.
Girdle made a spread-eagle pace to the
last furlong, where she blew up. At that' |
point River Pirate, Sweet Alice, Sheriff
Bell and Illyria were strung across the
track on even terms. Hicks went after
Sheriff Bell with Illyria in a great rush,
and as the two horses passed the finish
line the decision was solely up to the
judge, who gave the race to Illyria, Ful
ler having Sheriff Bell two lengths be
fore Sweet Alice, who was a head better
than River Pirate The time was 1.43%.
ATLANTIC CITY GOLFERS.
Tourney Narrows Down to Semi
Final3 and Finals.
The annual fall tournament of the Atlan
tic City Country Club Is being rapidly
brought to a close, as the playing of the
first and second rounds at match play yes
terday brought the field of competitors
down to four men in each cup class, who
met this morning, and the finals will be
played in the afternoon. The weather was
almost too cold for comfort, and the gal
leries which followed the leading matches
over the course were very small. The wo
men, as a rule, were satisfied with the golf
they could see from the club house. Geo.
T. Brokaw had to pay a fine of $3.75 for a
ball he sliced over into a farmer's field,
nearby. His caddy was arrested, and Bro
kaw paid the fine. The summary of the

weather this afternoon for their team
match for The Evening Star Cup, although
there was a decidedly wintry blast blowing

ington Golf Club comprises only nine holes,
which was gone over twice, but it possesses
many natural obstacles which require a
steady hand and a clear eye to overcome.
Both clubs had out their best teams, and an
interesting match was predicted.

Club set out a beautiful luncheon to its
guests at the cozy club house on the heights
overlooking the Potomac.

November 10-21, and promises to even
eclipse those of former years. In some of
the classes, notably in trotters and hack
neys, there Is a falling oft In the number of
entries, while In other classes the increase
is noticeable. The carriage horse classes
have filled well and the competition prom
ises to be keener than ever before, especial
ly as the champions of other years are In
eligible in the open classes, and over forty
newcomers have sent In their entries, their
chances of blue ribbons being better than
ever before. There will be some new horses,
too, and some "dark" ones which promise a
surprise. One of the features of the Show
will be the class for heavy-draught horses,
and the ponies will be better than at any
time in the history of the organisation.
Herd prizes are many and well filled so
there will be plenty of comedy. The saddle
horses are numerous and the hunters and
jumpers contain all the crack* of other
years with some new ones with reputations
to make.
In the thoroughbred class Belmar, Tom
Kenny. St. Nicholas II and Ildrim are the
candidates, Requital, who beat Belmar last
year, not being down, the increase of two
in value for first not having brought about
the good entry list that was expected.
Among the trotters are some good ones.
The new herd class has Freedom, son of
Sable Wilkes and Master Elect by Quarter
master. the latter one an old horse show fa
vorite. Stallions kept for service include
Master Elect, H. C. of last year, and Hail

In the racing class for stallions is Imerino,
2:20. Rhea W., 2:26%, Is In the 2:.'!0 driving
class for trotters, and only one appearing
in comparison with six last year, the ad
dition to the prize money not having been
appreciated.. In the roadster classes there
are fewer entries, but the class is good.
E. R. Ladew. W. J. Day, E. T. Stotesbury,
F. R. Bain and T. lu Watt showing their
cracks, including Sadie McGregor, second

The hackney classes have fallen off In
their entries, but Grilthorpe Playmate,
champion of last year, will be there with
his old competitor. Robin Adair II, to meet
him again in the challenge cup. Lord
Denby II. second prize winner In the herd
class last year, will not have to beat Fan
dango this time, and Gentleman John and
Saxon will give the challenge cup horses a
taste of their quality in the regular classes,
and among the mares are Madge Kendal.
Lady Abington and Viscountess. The
studs of E. D. Jordan. W. L. Elkins and the
Chestnut Hill Stock Farm are among those
represented
There are some good ones among the har
ness horse classes, and although the number
is not as great as that of last year, the
quality is quite as high If not higher. E. D.
Jordan's Kitty Gray, third prize winner of
last year, will not have to meet those who
beat her in the lightweight singles class,
but there will be among others H. P. Whit
ney's Kitchener and Kopelia. Mrs. J. B. M.

for the judges.
RULED OFF FOR LIFE.
D. J. Lynch Put Out of Racing Busi
ness by Western Jockey Club.
The stewards of the Western Jockey Club
defied yesterday at Chicago the political in
fluences which compelled the Harlem Jock
ey Club judges to reinstate D. J. Lynch.
The stewards ruled Lynch off the turf for
life, and punished with him Trainer C. Lind
and Jockey Treanor. All were concerned in
the alleged doping of race horses at Haw
thorne and Harlem.
When Lynch and his trainer and jockey
came under the ban at Hawthorne, Har
lem put on its ban. The judges at Haw
thorne refused to take official action when
pressure was brought to bear to reinstate,
but a prominent part owner of the Cicero
track caused a statement to be issued that
the suspension had been "lifted." Harlem s
judges Col. Hamilton and Martin Nathan
son, put out the paper which caused such a.
tempest in Chicago turf circles, stating that
certain influences which the Harlem Jockey
C!ub had neither the power nor the inclina
tion to defy had compelled the reinstate
ment of Lynch.
A storm of criticism over the reinstate
ment of a turfman who had not been clear
ed of charges against him. threw the whole
matter into the hands of the stewards or
the Western Jockey Club. Under the terms
of the constitution and by-laws of the turf
governing body the summary punishment
of Lynch and his colleagues for the "good
of the turf" was permissible.

The last articles called for the bout to be
settled at Bladensburg November 12, but
Myers' managsr, Ike Waldorf, called it off
without explanation.

Casino. Highlandtown. Mil., has offered the

on the Cbarles river, Cambridge, Mass.,
.yesterday afternoon, and resulted in a com
plete victory for the Weld over the Newell
Club.
-The races were held in two sections, com
ing at a quarter of an hour apart, and were
rowed during a blinding snow ?to m, from
which the orasmen were protected only by
i the scantiest covering of jerseys and
trunks. This, with a desag*eeable wind and
a ragged sea, made the conditions anything
but pleasant for the courageous athletes
participating in them.

Florida's Big Auto Meet.
The Ormond-Daytcna Beach tournament,
which will be run each winter under the
auspices of the Florida East Coast Auto
mobile Association over the Ormond-Day
tona Beach, promises to be a much larger
affair than it was last winter. Alfred
Reeves, formerly secretary of the Empire
trot'ing track, has been at Daytona for
several days taking a rest and incidentally
doing a little work In the Interest of the
tournament for W. J. Morgan, the racing
representative of the F. E. C. A. A.
Mr. Reeves declares that in a one-hun
dred mile race on the beach he believes
sixty miles an hour will be easy, and that
a mile can be done in forty-five seconds
without trouble. The Empire track is, he
says, a country road, as compared with the
beach for automobile speeding.
The committee in charge of the race meet
have begun to string two lines of copper
wire over the twenty miles of the course.
One of the wires will be used for timing the
races with the electric clock, and the other
one will be used for telephone purposes.
Mile posts were put up on the beach last
winter. Entries for the race meet, which
begins Jairtiary 25, are now coming In. John
B. Parkinson, secretary of the F. E. C. A.
A. of Daytona and W. J. Morgan, No. 1

tries and giving out Information about the
tournament. It Is proposed to run special
