10 TECH HIGH HANDS FAST GREENSBURG ELEVEN ONE BIG SURPRISE-STEELTON WINS CENTRAL LOSES TO HEAVY TEAM Makes Long Run For Touchdown; Play Is Feature of the Game Playing on a soggy field against a heavier team the Central eleven was defeated by the Gettysburg Reserves 13 to 6. The Harrisburg team was. handicapped by the loss of Elridge, the leftend, one of the best men on the line. Elridge is out of the game for the rest of the season because of scholastic standing. Shoemaker, who has been playing center was started at end.

Good, a guard, went to center and Gardner played left guard. After Gettysburg scored theii second touchdown early in the second period. Shoemaker and Good were put in their regular positions and the collegians failed to gain any more ground on their many line plunges. Wolfe Is Big Stnr All the scoring occurred in the first and second quarters. Early in the first period the Gettysburg team by a series of line plunges made their first score on a touchdown by Roach.

Shortly after this, Wolfe, the speedy Central quarter, ran sixty yards through the entire Gettysburg team for a touchdown. This run was the feature of the game. Several times it looked as if the Gettysburg backs get him but each time Wolfe ehook them off. Several Penalties Several severe penalties at the be-I gining of the second period put the Battlefield Boys within striking distance and after a hard fight. Stock took the pigskin across.

After this touchdown the Central lineup was changed and the Reserves could not make any large gains. During the last half the Central goal was never in danger. Another big penalty in the last quarter cost Central a touchdown. By a series of end runs and forward passes the Central eleven had worked the ball to Gettysburg's fifteen-yard line only to be penalized flfteeu yards. Wolfe and Fields had carried the ball almost to the goal! line when the final whistle blew.

Nov. 5. P. Sattler, of New York city, claims to have broken the bicycle record between the metropolis and Atlantic City. Sattler left City Hall in New York at 5.28 a.

m. and arrived tn front of City Hall here at 1.09 in the afternoon. He covered the distance In 7 hours and 41 minutes. The previous record, made In 1909, eight hours, which was bested by Sattler by nineteen minutes. The exact distance is 132 miles.

Sattler reported the roads in fairly good condition, excepting a stretch between Forked River and Lakewood, which, he said, was very bad nd delayed him considerably. MONDAY EVENING. Copyright. The Tribune Association CNev York TrlbiineV. A Gray November flutter of dead wind singing the advance sons of it takes no vivid imagination to recall from the pen of Hughey It disna thaw, Jock; gin it disna thaw; Gin the ice will bide wi' us an' bonnie blizzards blaw.

We'll hae a bonspiel o' oor ain, a bonspiel hero at liame. Wi' doclity chiels wha weel can play at Scotia's roarin' game. "We'll hae the scones an' ale, Jock, the haggis reekin' hot. An' wi' auld folks frae hame, Jock, we'll meet the crack a pot; That feed will croon the day, Jock, the day wi' micht an' main We pit it ower oor vedsitors wi' besom an' wi' stane." "Which is the more important," queries a reader, "a baseball manager or his material?" Well, you may recall where Connie Mack has finished the last two years with tail-end material. Also where McGraw finished in 1915 with tail-end material.

A nfanager Is far from being an. unimportant detail. But he isn't the 'entire show, nor as important as the njaterial. A few star ball players can often make any manager win. Hut no manager can make bum ball playeis resemble champions.

Clark Griffith won two pennants with the White Sox. But winning pennants for the Yankees, Reds and Washingtons was a new twist, widely separated from the Clficgo campaign. HOW MI'CH. INDEED? Some thoughtless bystander wants to know what Jess Willard has contributed to the nation's campaign. Jess has contributed two exhibition rounds before a Plattsburg gathering.

That totals six minutes of his valuable time, llow much do you expect a renowned champion to give, anyway? THE DISCARDS In the course of the last two or three years New York discarded two left-handers as being through, slipping and all the rest of it. Through the season just closed one of the southpaws, with a second division club, won more games than Schupp, Sallee or Benton, with the Giants. The other with a tail-ond contender won about as many games as any of the Giant southpaws. We refer exclusively to Jim Vaughn, ex-Yankee, and Rube Marquard, cx-Giant. They were of no particular use to New York, but for Chicago and Brooklyn they won 4 4 important and greatly desired ball games.

YOV KNOW THE ANSWER Tie who doesn't follow through Will say some words he oughtn't to. He who tops a rnashie shot Will say some things he orter not. The Allies, in the main, have come from nations of sport lovers and same players. But to a certain extent they seem to have forgotten the value of team play. The Allied idea has been, to let the individual run amuck, rather than operate in a machine-moulded mass.

THE FOOTBALL If the government needed a mint of money for Red Cross and army equipment purposes, which it does, what mint could beat this November or early December program? Army vs. Navy. Georgia Tech vs. Pittsburgh. Michigan vs.

Chicago. These three games could raise $150,000 with ease. At $2 a throw they could all pack any amphitheater to be employed. But it may be there are other considerations more importnt than $150,000, as highly important as 150,000 is. Only we can't think of any such consideration just now, with so many camps clamoring for athletic equipment and the supply so far in arrears of the growing need.

Or the above program might be revised to have the Army sent against Georgia Tech. A busy afternoon would very likely follow the official meeting of Everett Strupper and Joe Guyon with Elmer Olipliant. Guyon has moved against the Army.before, and unless we have overlooked the main details the Indian was on the winning side by an extended margin, something like 27 to 6. TECH-GREENSBURG FIGURES Plays Tech Grecnsburg Score 16 7 First Down 30 17 Kicks 5 10 Fumbles 5 1 Penalties 55 Yds 50 Yds Forward Attempted 2 23 Forward Successful 0 14 Forward Unsuccessful 2 9 TECH VARSITY ELEVEN IS SURPRISE TO GREENSBURG; WIN OVER WESTERN CHAMPS Ideal weather, real football, fierce fighting, clever forward passing and brilliant work by Tech, featured Saturday's game at Island Park. The Maroon eleven won over Greensburg, score 16 to 7.

The defeat handed to the western champs was the first in five years, and the third in eight years. It was a severe jolt for Greensburg. Tech excelled in every department but forward passing. While the local eleven was slightly heavier than their opponents, Tech showed speed. It was necessary in a game with a team like Greensburg.

The visitors were like lightning when forward passes were pulled off and succeeded in 14 attempts out of 23. Passes were worked from all angles. Greensburg was slow in getting into other plays and starting the ball. The westerners were tricky and tried all sorts of stunts, without success. Tech lost chances for a larger score on fumbles.

Both sides suffered from penalties for offside work and holding. Greensburg hit a stonewall on every play except their forward passes. On the latter they made all their gains and pulled off their only tally. No material gains came with line plunging and end runs. Griffith Big Star Griffith was tlie one big star for Greensburg.

He was in nearly every play. Knepper was a good aid to this star and frequently broke Into the game with brilliant spurts himself. Coleman, Davis, Dunmire, Hissem ari3 Buchannan were factors in the good work. Harrisburg had a bunch of stars. Ebner while having costly fumbles made up for the losses by his good work.

Captain Lloyd was In the game until the finish and his leadership won for him new laurels. Beck. Wilsbach, Frock, Peiffer, Kohlman and Bell figured In big gains. Two players were injured. Robert Davis, right half-back for Greensburg.

went out in the first quarter with a broken collarbone. Frock. Tech's fast center was also put out with a bad knee and kidney blow. There were times when the game was halted In order to let players get their wind. The game was clean very little attempts at slugging be insr noticeable.

This was due to the good work by the officers. Tech's First Score Tech's first score came early in the first period. After several fast scrimmages, passing, line plunges, with the ball changing hands several times. Tech fumbled and Greensburg got the ball. Griffith booted the ball past midfleld and Ebner ran It back to the forty-yard line.

Beck shot around left end for a twelve-yard gain and on the next play carried the ball twenty-five yards around right end. Just six minutes after the game started, Wilsbach plowed through the lino for the first touchdown. Lloyd's kick out failed and the score stood, Tech. Greensburg, 0. A field goal in the second quarter brought three more points for Tech.

Greensburg received the ball on downs on the twenty-four-yard line. Griffith lost two yards and Dunmire gained four through the line. Griffith kicked to Ebner. who ran back eleven yards. Ebner and Beck made seven yards, but Lloyd failed to gain.

Lloyd dropped back to the twenty yard line and kicked a pretty field goal. Score. Tech, Greensburg, 0. GrccnsbUftr Scores Greensburg scored in the second half. Two plays gained five yards, and Beck made six for a first down around end.

Tech fumbled and Buchanan received on the forty yard line. Griffith threw a pass to Coleman for a twenty yard gain. Griffith losa a yard, and then threw a forward to Kelly for six yards. Greensburg was penalized five yards. Knepfer caught Griffith's seventeen yard toss for a first down.

Beck and Beck made first down in two plays. Lloyd gained three through the line and added eleven around EKRRTSQURQ TETEGRJPR WILLIAMSPORT EASY PICKING Stcelton Wins Game by Superior Work; Daylioff Displays Leadership Steelton High hau an easy sition in Williamsport Saturday, Captain DayhofT's team winning by a score of 27 to 0. Straight football brought the first two touchdowns for St eel to ii. Forward passes were factors in the last two scores. Williamsport's team is new in the game, and was lighter in weight.

The Billtowners best work was in the thirS period. Captain Dayhofi proved himself a great loader. He set the pace for his team. In making the first two touchdowns. Daylioff used a series of fast line plays to advanee the ball.

Krout took the ball over first, and Dayhoff the second time. The last two six pointers were made by using forward passes the backs dropping the ball into the arms of the player for good gains. Dayhoff took one of these passes and Hehman the other. Both raced about ten yards for the touchdow'n, but there was no one to tackle them. Dayhoff booted all but one of the goals.

The Blue and White players did not make any strenuous effort at any time during the game, but each player was in nearly every play, showing that the ball was fqllowed. For Williamsport, Taylor at center did the best work on line defense, while the whole backfield and the two ends played well. The lineup and summary: Williamsport. Steelton. McCauley.

Carlisle Indian Star Wins For Camp Meade Philadelphia.

Nov. 5. a bitterly contested game, featured by the work of former stars on many college gridirons, the Camp Meade football team, led by Gus Welch, the old Carlisle Indian player, won a close victory from the United States Marine Corps, directed by the peerless Eddie Mahan, at Shibe Park, Saturday afternoon. The final score was 9 to 7.

A twenty-yard run by ivlylin, onetime captain of Franklin and Marshall, brought the pigskin to the Marines' thirty-yard line. Plunges by Tighe and Welch carried the ball to the twenty-yard 11ns and here the Marines braced.

Thayer, who had been resting on the sidelines all afterneon because of his unfamiliarity with the Meade men's signals, then ran out onto the field, dropped back and kicked the goal.

ACADEMY PLAYS SCORELESS TIE Gives Gettysburg Academy Hard Battle; Thrilling Contest; Stars in Game The Harrisburg Academy played a scoreless game Saturday with Gettysburg Academy at Gettysburg. The gnnie was interesting from start to finish.as both sides came near scoring and there were seyeral sensation! al end runs.

The field was poorly lined as the game was played immediately following the Central-Gettysburg game, and the ground was muddy. There were four games on the same field Saturday. The Academy party left for Gettysburg early Saturday morning and arrived in time to see Central play Gettysburg Reserves. The Academy game followed and then the party went over the battlefield, leaving Gettysburg in time to eat dinner at Dillsburg. The Academy had brought a large party and was well supported during the game.

Gettysburg Wins Toss The game began at 12.30. Gettysburg won the toss and chose to defend the north goal. Captain Stone, of the blue and gold choose to receive. L. May.

took the ball for a fast end run. Harrisburg on end runs and line plunges took the ball to Gettysburg's 40-yard line and was held for downs, Moore kicking out of danger. Gettysburg then began line plunging and carried the ball to the center of the field where the quarter ended. At the beginning of the next quarter Gettysburg continued line plunging and took the ball to the blue and gold's three-yard line. Here Gettysburg was held for downs and Moore kicked for the blue and gold.

Gettysburg was again held for downs on Harrisburg's eight-yard line. Wren kicked for the Academy when the quarter ended. Second Half Gettysburg in the second half and lost the ball on a fumble after making considerable gain. "Louie" May then made a beautiful end run for thirty-five yards, and Wren followed it with a run around left end for fifteen yards. May continued the parade with a ten-yard gain around right end.

Here Harrisburg was held on Gettysburg's tenyard line. Gettysburg kicked out of bound, and the Academy continued to gain. Wren lost the ball by a tumble, being knocked out in the play, but Harrisburg held Gettysburg for downs and recovered the ball. The Academy then attempted to score a touchdown by forwarding but the game ended scoreless with the ball on Gettysburg's twenty-yard line. Wren and May played a brilliant game for Harrisburg, while OVermiller starred for Gettysburg.

Tech's spend in getting after those forward passes was a big surprise. Those Greensburg boys can play the grid game.

With a little more weight Tech might not have had such a decisive victory. However, the Maroons won. With football machinery like that by Tech, victory was certain. The local eltwen played a game that means satisfactory results every time. Sleelton high, while not required to make any special effort, put up a great game.

Next Saturday Tech goes to Steelton for the second game. It is going to be a great battle. This week will tind both teams hard at practice. New football Ideas will be necessary, as It is also going to be a battle between coaches. Coach Harris of the Carlisle Indian team, may not have a victorious team, but it is an aggregation that means greater honors next season.

Football at Carlisle Indian school must be rebuilt. There has not been any special attention given the grid game at that institution since Glenn Warner qilit. Coach Harris is whipping new material shape. He has a promising bunch of warriors and next season will find the Indians back in the game in real style. Basketball had a good start Saturday.

The Harrisburg Independents look like champions and when they warm up to season's form local patrons will get the best kind of sport.
