OP) The University of Pennsylvania won an unimpressive 14 to 0 victory over mered through to the Notre Dame four yard line, only to miss first -down by the margin ot a foot, A few minutes later, in the same second period, they rushed to the five yard strirje only to see their golden opportunity float away on an incomplete pass over the goal line. The Northwestern 20 yard line was the limit of the Notre Dame football travels today. Three times, the "Fighting Irish" got to that point.

Nineteen fumbles marred the game and gave the two teams chances during the frenzied battle for that precious touchdown, but the punting duel between March Schwartz and Olson made the spectators forget about those mistakes. One of Schwartz's boot3 traveled 71 yards, counting the short roll, while Olson sent his spinning 50, 60 and 65 yards. Statistics gave Notre Dame a slight edge in the game despite the two big Wildcat threats that were almost cashed in. The team from South Bend made 106 yards from scrimmage to 81 by their rivals and piled up six first downs to Northwestern's three. Fumbling was about even, but Northwestern recovered nine muffs to six by the Irish.

Not a single pass was completed and only one was intercepted and that one by Notre Dame deep in its own territory.

The -Fighting Irish," carrying on for their departed Knute Rockne. weren't beaten in their valiant bid to establish a new winning steak, but were held to a scoreless tie, a result of which was almost as precious to the white shlrted gians from Northwestern. Of the two teams, evenly matched in all departments, but stopped by the almost constant deluge which churned the battlefield into a veritable quagmire it was Northwestern that was closest to victory. Twice, the Wildcats marched on the break of fumbles, to within the shadows of the Notre Dame goal line only to be turned back. Once the Wildcats ham Pitt Runs Wild In Winning Over West Virginia Panthers Unleash Power and Speed in Crushing Mountaineers PITTSBURG, Oct? 10.

It was an eleven that battered, fought, gave everything that it had to triumph over a great, If not the greatest eleven that has reprecented Pottwiile High for many years. Every minute of play found Bethlehem playing an inspired brand of ball. The line clicked, tackled and blocked with a deadly accuracy and the work of the backfield was a revelation.

(P) A last nprinri tmirhrfnuTi rava tbp ProVl dence Steam Rollers a 6 to 0 professional football victory over the Frank fort Yellow Jackets at the pnuii3 Park today.

The scoring followed twe passes, Oden to Pape, and Oden to Rose, the latter going over for the Franklin and; Marshall on Franklin field today before a sparse crowd.

Perina crashed thru on the first play of the final period. It was the second game of the year for the charges of Coach Harvey Herman, who beat Swarthmore last week, and they sfsll showed the effects of their late training start, one of the features of a reorganized athletic program at the university. The plays were sluggish, interference was poor and fumbles were frequent. and likewise muffed opportunities to gain ground, especially on some smart forward pass plays. Coach Allen Holman uncovered a long and accurate passer in Passell of Lock Haven, but three times his receivers dropped his offerings after they apparently had them safely snagged.

Babe $ays Fast Players Burn Out So Declares Home Run King in Talking About 'Pepper' Martin NEW YORK, Oct 10. Babe Ruth recently spotted an old Boston friend marooned in Philadelphia for a score of years and said" that he wanted two more years of baseball and he would be ready to retire from the stage. Asked why he wanted to quit, replied: "I'll be twenty years in action ana that is a long time. It Is a Ion? time for a fat man, and maybe, a slender one can get by a little longer. A fellow gets burned out.

I would not be up there now if I was laying them down and beating them out. "The A's looked burned out to me Think of It. There's Grove, Earnshaw and Walberg, three mighty pitchers, and they have been in 100 games this season. They are all burned out Grove may come back, but he will have to pitch. Earnshaw, too, is a big, strong fellow, but he has been having quite a summer of it.

I 'as a pitcher," continued Ruth, "before I was a ball player. Exhibition games are something to think about, too. don't I know? "Maybe you fellows In Philadelphia heard about this guy Chapman on our team. Great hustler, likes to run bases, steal a lot, full of pep. Crashed through' the catchers last season like an express train, but when the season was ended he was all tired out, burned out after his tngh season.

Could hardly stand. "Martin is getting around a lot on the sacks, but like Chapman, he'll burn out. It is too much, this dashing here and there." Ruth's remarks about Chapman brought up discussion about base running. Several players seemed to think that Martin is fastest going from first to second. Chapman proved that not only was he fast on the bases, but in a straightway he beat the swiftest in the league.

Martin is not fast straightway, having been heaten a 75-yard dash by Jimmy Wilson, the St. Louis catcher. A's Defeat Is Blamed on Mack Failure to Send Pinch-Hitter in for Earnshaw in 5th Draws Criticism ST. LOUIS, Oct. 10.

OP) The grandstand managers blamed part of the reason for the Athletics' defeat today on just such another strategic blunder as they have called twice before on Connie Mack. The veteran pilot let George Earnshaw hit again in the fifth inning witu one out. and two men on and his club trailing by four runs. With a chance to start a rally and get the runs they needed more than pitching at the moment Mack failed to send In a hitter for Earnshaw and the pitcher grounded into a double play. He did the same thing in the second game here.

When "Pepper Martin, the hero of the series despite his failure to hit in the last two games, went to the plate in the eighth with two on and two out, he had his final chance to break the record of 12 hits for a series, he equalled in the first fiye games. He fanned. Pepper Martin wni get $15,76 less for playing seven world series games than he for playing 125 or so in the entire national league season. His salary this year, first with the cards, is $4,500. His winning series cut is $4,484.24.

Ernest Orsatti. who doubles in his apare time for Buster Keaton screen comedian, failed to double or even single for anyone today when he substituted for Chick Hafey, batting champion of the National League, in the Cardinal left field. In three times at- bat he struck out three times. Apparently the crowd that irumber-ed about half capacity and left bare spots al lover Sportsman's Park, had as much confidence in Burleigh Grimes eome back to win his second as the betting commissioners. The faithful indicated by their absence that they bolieved the odds of 2 to 1 offered that the A's would win the final game and the series behind Earnshaw's pitching.

Connie Mack fidgeted through the game, desperately, trying to break through unmes defense for the loftiest ambition of his 50 years car eer in baseball, three successive world championships. He rubbed his nose nulled his hat, waved his score card, shifted his scat and tried all other magic, but he couldn't bat in enough Colgate Hard Losing, 16 to 0 strongest Lafayette teams ever to travel north from Easton. Doggedly fighting to the last" ditch. The Leopards were not strong enough to withstand the battering of a group of inspired Maroon players. Captain Orsi, in addition to blocking the kick that scored Colgates safety, kept his end as tight as a traffic tie up.

Miller and Irwin did the best work for Lafayette, both on the march and on the receiving end, completing several well executed passes For the Maroon, Samuel, Ask, and Litster worked well in carrying the ball while Anderson and Ellis were throwing a stonewall in front of the leaping Leopards. Colgate received and Evans immediately kicked the ball to midfield, La fayette started their only real push of the day, Erwin and Miller carrying the ball to Colgates 30-yard line. They were stopped by an impreg nable defense. Cook came out of the Leopard line to try a placement. It went wide and Colgate took the ball on its own 20-yard line.

Samuel ran fifteen yards around end for a first down with Litster and Samuel alternating. The Maroon pushed on for eighty yards to score its first touchdown on a long pass from Evans to Anderson. Litster made the extra point. The second quarter showed little with both teams unable to get away from the middle of the field. 'Berg Freshmen Score 7-0 Win Over Lehigh Rohn Scored Long Touchdown in Third Period on Pass From Lepore In a game marked by listless play until near the end of the third quarter, the Muhlenberg college Freshman football team scored a close 7-0 victory over the Lehigh University yearlings before a fair-sized crowd yesterday afternoon on Muhlenberg Field.

Both teams tightened up considerably at the start of the last half, but it was not until near the end of the third period that a pass, Lepore to Rohn, resulted in the only touchdown of the game. The extra point was converted through a pass from Bloom to Rohn. The last quarter resolved itself into a punting duel between Bloom and Furmah, Muhlenberg and Lehigh punters, respectively. The highlight of the game was Schrader's play at center for ths Mules, although the balance of the team played great ball.

Sharkey Picked To Beat Camera Heavyweights Meet in Fifteen Round Bout in Brooklyn Monday Night Bv HERBERT W. BARKER NEW YORK, Oct. 10. VP) It may be a fight for the "American heavyweight championship" to the promoter, but to the experts the forthcoming scrap between Primo Camera and Jack Sharkey looks more like the "battle of the twin enigmas." Certainly Promoter Jimmy Jonhs-ton might have looked far and wide without discovering two other heavyweights over whose capabilities such violent and widespread controversy has arisen. Their 15-round duel in Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, Monday night should settle once and for all just what right Sharkey has to his position of "permanent outstanding contender." By the same token, the bout should decide definitely Camera's status among the heavyweights.

Sharkey has been the prize-mystery-man of the boxing industry ever since he was knocked out by Jack Dempsey in 1927. He knocked out Jack Delaney in one round and Tommy Loughran and Phil Scott in three and gained decisions over Young Stribling and K. O.

Mickey Walker. Sharkey has been the most Incon sistent of all the heavyweights and one of the most unpopular. Another defeat should remove him from the heavyweight picture but in the past, has had a disconcerting habit of bouncing right up again just when thfe critics had him down and out. As for Camera, many close observers have put him down in the book as a "freak" of no real fighting ability. There has been a widespread succession of rumors of "arranged" bouts which the mammoth Italian has won in short order and some of the boys still remember that Prlmo got not better than an even break in two bouts with Jimmy Maloney and never came close to upsetting the fragile Boston heavyweight.

Stribling proved in Europe that the big Italian, despite his 270 pounds, could be floored. Friends of Camera maintain that the Italian has come along fast in the last year and that he now is a match for any heavyweight in the game. The betting odds favor Sharkey at 6 to 5.

Princeton got its lone score in the iinal quarter when Larsen caught Van Dyke's forward pass over the goal line Using an attack that consisted mainly of double and triple passes behind the line and ending up in off tackle smashes or wide end sweeps, the Bruins tore the Tiger line to shreds. The Princeton secondary defense was bewildered by the crashing attack and was swept aside for runs of from 20 to 40 yards.
