Nov. SO. Chicago. 2, Michigan The undisputed 'lienor of the Western football "championship was earned by Chicago" to-iay by the close score of two pofnis, earned on a touchdown. In the second 'half by the splendid work of Capt.

Catlin, of Chicago, hut also -by the poor judgment of Clark, of Michigan, in trying to run back a punt of Eckersall's, which barely reached the Michigan goal line. He was thrown across the. line by Catlin after he had stalled oft two Chicago tackles, and two points, a safety touchdown, were recorded for Chicago, the only scoring done in the game. Curtis, Michigan's left, tackle, was disqualified early in the game for slugging. victim was Walter Bckersall, Chicago's kicking quarterback.

Eckersall, dropping back for a punt from Chicago's forty-ryard. line, was hurled to the frozen ground by the plunge of the Michigan tackle in his attempt to block: the kick, and for nearly two minutes' lay still, apparently knocked out completely. Referee Rhinehart claimed that Curtis in his i plunge for Eckersall swung an uppercut to the Maroon quarterback's jaw, and in' epite of the frantic pleadings of Curtis and the prow-sts of Norcross, ruled the burly Michigan tackle out of the game. Eckersall recovered within the time, limit and resumed play, although plainly very iiToggy for some time afterward. The game was devoid of spectacular features, Brilliant open field play by Chicago, and hard grinding, man-killing lina work "by" Michigan was expected by the rSO.Opu' spectators' 'enat surrounded the, gridiron oiTMarshall Field."

THANKSGIVING DAY HANDICAP. Pat Civill's Orly At Juicy Odds of 100 To 1, Takes the Feature Event. ONIy ONE PAVOKITE PIEST. EW ORLEANS, Nov. 30.

The opening day of the racing season was J- a brilliant, social, financial and sporting success. The big grandstand waa pocked and the grounds along the home stretch was lined with spectators. There were about thirty touring cars and hundreds of carriages and other private conveyances. Many prominent in business and social circles were present with their families. The Licutinar-t Governor of Louisiana and the Mayor of the city were among the guests of the club.

The weather was delightful and track fast. The Thanksgiving Handicap was won by Pat Civill's Orly who went to the post at 100 to 1. Only one favorite, Monterey, finished first. Fourteen bookmakers drew in and reported a very strong Pat CIvlll, owner of the luscious long bet only $10 on his horse, but, of course, won a nice bunch at that. In the early part of the race Orly II.

was outrun. Salvage setting only a fair pice, with two-thirds of the field closely bunched at his heels. In the stretch Belle Strome and Bryan drew clear and looked ifke having the race between them, but Orly II. came along, plenty of speed In reserve, caught them at the end of the grand stand, and won, going away, as If much the best at the weights. The winner was brought to this country by Enoch Wishard when he returned from England the last time.

The meeting opened with a contretemps for bettors, almost everyone being down on Alma Dufour, the favorite, which was away badly. Fred Gerhardy, who was substituting for Starter Mars Cassidy until the latter can get here from Bennings. sent the little field away all tangled up and strung out. Alma Dufour was not at her best and failed to get up in a slowly-run race. Nlcol and D.

STUBBORN GAME Cornell Holds Strong Quaker Eleven Safe Eor First Hour.

OUTPLAYED IN FIRST HALF. Bad Fumbles By Penii Players With Ball Near Opponents' Goal-. Are Costly, GREAT CROWD SEES GAME. PHILADELPHIA; Nov- SO. Pennsylvania to-day Cornell in their annual -football game by the score of 6 to 5, the narrow margin of a goal deciding' the contest.

It was the most stubbornly contested game-that has been seen in Field "this season, and it was only after. Cornell; had been, weakenedby the substitution of players that the Pennsyl- yanlas were "able to cross the Ithacahs' goal line. For one hour the local eleven had been held in check and really outplayed, the visitors, and it began, to 'look as though the Cornell boys were to be the victors, but "after they had made, their touchdown and the elevens had changed goals by jthe stiff, wind, gradually forced-the ball down the field for a touchdown. In the first half Cornell outplayed Pennv sylvanla in all departments" of the game with the exception of kicking. The vis itors gained 126 yards by rushing, against seventy-two for Pennsylvania, Twice they had the ball within striking distance of the but each time Pennsylvania braced and took the The score does not correctly, show the relative strength of the two elevens, for Pennsylvania's fumbling habit, which had been temporarily cured; suffered a relapse and prevented the local eleven from scor ing at least -two additional touchdowns.

Twice pushed the ball from midfleld to within five yards of the Cprnell 'goal; but on both occasions there was a fumble and the Ithaca boys kicked the ball out of danger. Pennsylvania did not play with their usual dash, and plainly showed the effects of the Columbia game last Saturday. Cornell, on the other hand, was iri su perb condition and played better than they had shown this season. Neither team was able to score in the first half, but early in second half Cornell, aided by the wind, forced the ball well within Pennsylvania's' territory. After Cornell had, carried the.

ball to Pennsylvania's twenty-yard line the Quakers held firmly and "took it away from the Ithacans. Sheble kicked, but the wind held the ball back Cornell got It on Pennsylvania's sfifty-yard line. From this point the visitors carried it over for a touchdown without it. Their main ground-rgalner was a revolving mass on tackle, the Pennsyl vania eleven seemed, unable to stop. The touchdown-was.

Pennsylvania taking advantage of this condition, started in to play harder than ever and soon carried the ball over -for a touchdown. The touchdown was made directly in front of the posts and Sheble kicked an easy goal, giving Pennsylvania the Thompson, guard of the Cornell eleven, was. sent to the side lines in the opening half for deliberately striking Stevenson.

Thia was the only player ruled out of the. game, although Umpire Edwards mo-ra than once cautioned men on both teams. There was a great crowd present when the two teams appeared on the gridiron. Pennsylvania won the toss and ohose the west goal, with a strong wind at their backs. After Cornell kicked off the Quakers.

Georgeto-wu Unlversitj' went down in the, worat defeat ever suffered by a Blue and Gray team at National Park to-day, when the Carlisle Indians won the culminating con-test of the season by 76 to 0. Nearly 5,000 people braved the cutting wind to see the contest. The usual order of the game waa simply for the Indians to receive the ball and then straightaway carry it up th field at clips of from Ave to.twenty-ftve until It finally rested beyond the goal line.

The individual honors went to Porter, the fullback, and Charles, the substitute right halfback of Carlisle. Porter scored seven of his team's dozen touchdowns. With but 'a few minutes of the second half to be played, Charles capped the afternoon's performance by falling back to the tbirty-ave-yard and from a difficult angle dropping a goal rods the field. It was the spectacular, bit of the game. At.

the beerinnlmr of the second half Carlisle put in practically a new team, in order to give the. scrubs who have helped develop the first eleven a Although the second team did not play so well together, Georgetown was so worn down, after the. hard first half, that the substitutes rolled, up 34 points.

TROPHY OR CHICAGO MEN. Members of National League Team To Receive Valua-" ble Emblems. HE National Commission the su-' premc court of baseball has decided upon the design for the emblem to be given the Chicago National League team (champions of Chicago); and the presentation Is made by Christmas. Tho design for the emblem was drawn by Charles. president of the Chicago club, and was immediately accepted by the National Commission- of which August Herrmann, of Clnchi.iati, Is chairman.

The emblems are to be made of one solid piece of gold, diamond-studded, and typifies baseball and Chicago. It is circular in form, and through the center he: letter which rep resents thel Chicago river, which forms' that letter of the alphabet before flowing into Lake Michigan. In the fork of the VY" will be imbedded a diamond, which shows conclusively, that the trophy was presented for an achievement upon the green diamond. In of. the are three bats embossed.

Around the: letter Is the regulation National League baseball, with embossed seams. Around the ball is a space in which will appear-raised letters as follows: "Chicago champions, ISOG."

Finally with the ball on Michigan's five-yard line, sent there on a punt by. Eckersall, Garrels kicked to Michigan's forty-five-yard line. Eckersall immediately returned the punt.

His long, high spiral went over the Michigan goal line. Clark," who had relieved Stuart at Jeft half, caught the ball standing under the goal bar, and, instead of letting the ball go for a touchdown, ran with It He shook off Parry, but Catlin nailed him before he had run ten yards along the line, and hurled him across the goal line for a safety. Clark was yanked out Immediately and Magoffin sent in his place, but the mischief had been done. The game was nearly over, and Chicago, with victory in sight more than held the. desperate attack of the Michigan backs in the closing moments of the game.

Throughout the game the" ball was in Michigan territory most of. the time, and not once, was the Chicago goal line threatened. In the first half Chicago made eighty yards on downs to Michigan's sixty-four. In the secopd -half, Michigan made sixty-four yards to Chicago's fifty-nine. This shows -the amount of punting that was done, and also the splendid defense put up.

"Tick plays failed to gain. They were broken -up, as a rule, without gain, although Garrels, of Michigan, got away twice for runs of twenty-one and thirty-seven yards on fake kicks. Eckessall made fifteen yards on the same play once, but otherwise the game was devoid of open field play.

Michigan's concerted offense, when hurled against the -Chicago line, failed -to produce expected results, and the- fight for the-honor of the Western football championship early devolved itself into a punting duel between Eckersall, of Chicago, and Garrcls, of Michigan, but with this unexpected difference: Michigan utterly failed to gain consistently agaftist Chicago's defense, while Chicago.

"Whose line has yielded to the attacks -of nearly every team that had played Chicago this season, not" only held against the heavy line plays of Michigan, but gained much more ground than did Michigan on straight football. Part of this was due to the disqualification for slugging in the first half of Curtis, the star tackle of Michigan, for Eckersall, quick to observe the consequent weakness in Michigan's defense, directed the majority, of the Maroon's line plays against Patrick, who took Curtis' place. Outside of all this, however, Chicago plainly outplayed Michigan, and the maize and blue for the first time In five years were defeated. The ball was in the air a great deal of the time. Frequently "both Chicago and punted on the first down, although this was resorted to more frequently by Michigan than by Chicago, and in this punting dual Garrels, who did the kicking for Michigan, had none the worst of it His punts averaged fully as many yards as the long spirals of the brilliant Chicago quarterback, and were high enough to allow the Michigan ends to sret down the field.

But umcago made more distance on straight football than, did Michigan and in the second half this figured in the piay that resulted in the only points scored. Neither team scored on ihe first half. Chicago won the toss and chose the north goal, with the wind favoring, but only once Teas the ball even within dangerous distance of a goal line and it was Michigan's goal line that was threatened. Chicago succeeded in getting the ball to Michigan's th Ir ty-5 ve-3'ard line, following an exchange of punts and some hard line bucking by Besdek and "Walker, but at this time, when it seemed that Eckersall would have a chance at drop kicking, Chicago was penalized fifteen yards for holding in the line, and any chance of scoring disappeared with the penalty. The safety touchdown was marked up late In the second half.
