STANTHXG OF THE TF. AM. CENTRAL mm 6EE Tuo lAJHOkB COui-ARS 9cv(N tAE. yt HUGOBEZDEK WORKING WITH HJSiaCKERS State Coach Is Trying to Develop Backfield Man to Do Punting Against Pitt State College, Pa, Nov. 22.

Since resuming practice last Tuesday after a break of two days, following tha Cornell game. Coach Hugo Bezdek has been driving his Penn State eleven at top speed In order to get them in shape to tackla Pitt on Thanksgiving day. That the coach does not propose to overlook any department Is shown by the fact that he baa been devoting considerable time to his kickers during the past two days. Capt. Higgins has done most of the punting In the last three and his work has been above criticism; but as Higgins is an end, Bezdek is endeavoring to develop a backfield man Tor the Job.

Of the backs, there are two who stand out, and these are Harold Hess, the former Bellevernon High star, and Buck Williams of Monessen High. Hess is the regular fullback and Coach Bezdek believes he has vast possibilities. He is one of the biggest men on the squad and gets a terrific drive behind his kicks. In practice he has kicked some for TO yards, but he is not yet a consistent punter. Under Bezdek's watchful eye, however, he has been gradually developing and it would not surprise the State rooters ha gave a wonderful exhibition against the Panthers Thursday.

Although Hess entered State in the fall of 1915, he is only a junior and will have one more year of football. He was a star on the freshman team in l'Jlo and in the following year he played about half the games as varsity fullback. He entered the service before the 1917 season opened and spent about 15 months in France, returning to State this fall. Hess played regularly In the early part of the season and showed himself to be one of the best defensive rQVa KroA Vi a a ovr hud aplt ball Ye and I've seem Jlna Vangh and one or two others almeat a prominent aplt oa the ball now nnd then.

Boston. Nov. 22. Cultured old Boston grinned today with a before-the-war grin. The sides of the old town fairly burst with the mobs, crowds and gangs of football enthusiast that began pouring in on ttpeeial trains at daybreak.

The stage was set with all the trimmings of the old "Harvard-Yale battles that were halted after 19l for the bigger battle in France. Perfect -feather prevailed. An early morning fun pushed the mercury up several degrees and brought satisfaction to the arriving thousand. A crowd of 50,000 in the stadium at Soldiers' Field this afternoon seemed a certainty. The Harvard athletic management announced that more than 4,000 applications had been turned down for lack of space.

Despite early announcements to this effect, hundreds came to the battleground without hoping additional stands might have- been built in the meantime. Harvard was favored to win. Odds of 10 to were offered on the Crimson. The heartless way In which the "dope" has been handled this season was having its effect, however, and the "I don't know" sentiment waa prevailing.

Paul, Nov. 22. Mike O'Dowd has beaten his greatest rival tn middleweight crown. O'Dowd had the shade on Mike Gib-bons in' their 10-round bout here last night. Although there was no decision, tha crowd and the sport writers gave the scrap to O'Dowd.

Gibbons looked good until his eye waa cut in the third round. After that O'Dowd had 'things much his own way except for occasional rallies by the fading- "phantom." There were no knockdowns.

Although unable play their remaining games on their homo grounds on account of the authorities stopping Sunday football In this county, the Rudy Odds will finish the season as a. road team meeting only the strongest teams that can be booked.

The annual meting between these genuine rivals Hi always productive of some football fireworks, but indications today were for -even a more bitter struggle than usual. The proteges of "Walter Steffen are convinced that they have a better chance today to beat the Warnerltes than ever in the past, and they propose to make the most of it. They took it for granted that the veteran Pitt mentor would save as many of his regulars as possible today, because of the -great Turkey -day contest with Penn State looming up next turaday, and ara confident that if Pitt nt In its second string warriors they would be treated to a decidedly unpleasant surprise.

The cheer leadeia have been marshaling their forces all week, and today were ready to stage a vocal battle as an Interesting sideline to the gridiron engagement. The University of Pittsburg football management has been notified by "nited States government officials that Internal revenue Inspectors are awake to the situation in regard to speculating In tickets for the Pitt-Penn State game next Thursday, and tl-at they are going to conduct a real campaign to clear, up the "scalpers." Government officers in plain clothes will patrol the Oakland section next Thursday, as well as all of the downtown hotels, and declare they will pick up and arrest all offenders of the law.

The impression seems to prevail In many quarters that all the seats for the W. Virginia football game here on Thanksgiving have been sold. The Impression Is incorrect. University authorities today took an inventory by long-distance telephone of alj the unsold seats wher ever located and announced that 1.5G4 tickets remain unsold. Of course, the choice seats near the center of the field have been sold long ago, but there are itill desirable seats to be had and when the sale of J.

tickets reopened here at 3 o'clock this morning there was another small-sized rush for pasteboards. In fact, more money has been paid in for tickets in Morgantown alone than has ever been taken in at a football game in "West Virginia, and local people are still not supplied with admission. Seven hundred tickets were placed on sale here today and there are still tickets In the hands of the agencies at Washington, Scottdale, Uniontown, Waynesburg and Point Marion, Fairmont. Clarksburg, Grafton, Wheeling. Weston, Salem, Shinns-town, Moundsville, Elkins, Philippi, Belington, Spencer, Middlebourne and Terra Alta.

Mail orders still come in daily and are filled at once, and it is firmly believed here that there will be less than Coo tickets unsold when the day of the game arrives. Strong Teams Meeting. The attention of independent football fans is centered on Pitcairn today where the Pitcairn Quakers and the McKeesport Olympics are clashing In their aecor.d game for the championship of Western Pennsylvania before one of the largest crowds that has witnessed an game In recent A hard fought struggle Is promised as both teams are anxious to capture the decision.
