LAUDS INSTITUTION Glenn S. "Warner, coach of the Pitt football team, has permanently identified himself with the athletic fortunes of the- local university by his agreement yesterday to coach the Blue and Cold teams during the seasons of 1917. 191S, 1919 and 1920, This came about as A result of the desire of the Pitt alumni and student body to keep the great gridiron tutor at the head of football affairs as lung as possible. It is under, stood that no formal contract was signed, hut the arrangement was definitely concluded. Prior to the Syracuse game last week Mr.

Warner was told by the Pitt authorities that it was the unanimous wish of the athletic committee that the contract now existing be altered to over a longer term ef years. When he came here a year ago last moath it was on the basis of a three-year eon-tract, the second year of which Is now in course of completion, but so well atisfted are the Pittsburgh people with hie work that it was decided to aslc him to extend this agreement to twice its original length now, when only half the time included In the first contract has expired. The news that the coach has accepted the terms offered will be hailed with satisfaction by everyone Interested in the success of the pig uni-Vgrsity and its athletic teams. Ability It Recepnixed. The fact that since Warner took charge of the football squad over a year ago not a single game has been lost Is in itself ample cause for this j.

l-uoq on me pair oj me Pitt athletic committee, but there is something more back of their action. They believe that Glenn is not only the ablest and most efficient coach in the country, but that his influence upon the men he coaches and the etudent body generally is something the value of which cannot be estimated. In the season and a half during which Mr. Warner has been here be has established friendships of the moat enduring nature with practically everyone with whom his work brings him in contact. Evolved Many flay.

Though he received his football training at Cornell, where he graduated in ISM, Warner's methods are seldom spoken of as a development of the Cornell system, for he is above all other coaches original, independent and progressive. He introduced while coaching at the Carlisle Indian School a doxen plays and formations of his own invention which have become recognized as standards in late" years in the play of all first-class teams. The demand that Coach Warner be retained as long as possible came to the athletic committee from students nd alumni alike; it was unanimous. Gives Oat Statement. Coach Warner last night gave the following statement in regard to the change in his agreement: When the proposition to extend my Contract m-ith the University of Pittsburgh Athletic Association was recently submitted to me, and I was assured that the Athletic council was unanimous in favor of it, I unhesitatingly agreed to the aew arrangement.

My relations and association with everyone connected with the university, and especially with those with whom I have come into close touch in my work, have been so- pleasant and harmonious that I consider myself very fortunate in being able to continue as a part of the finest athletic organization I have ever corns in contact with. I have never observed the least friction among the Athletic Committee. My relations with my able assistants on the field could not have been more pleasant, and the business management leaves nothing to be desired. In addition to these considerations I feel fortunate in continuing nv irvi ra the University of Pittsburgh is a young, wide-awak and fast-growing institution which will in the ntar future become one of the largest and best-equipped universities in the country.

By CHARLES J. DOYLE. If the United States Golf Association refuses to honor the request of the Woodland Golf Club which asks the reinstatement of Francis Ouimet, the great outdoor sport is likely to lose one of its brightest lights. Young Ouimet is the former national champion who won his laurels through a series of spectacular exhibitions which stamped him as an unusual star. He has an innate fond-nes for the game and has had since he learned how to tee a ball, but he threatens to give It up if the decision rating him a professional is not rescinded soon.

During the last trip of the Pirates to Boston Ouimet sat in his little sporting goods store and discussed his case with the writer. The crack golfer also is a warm baseball enthusiast, but he has not been getting his customary enjoyment since the action of the governing board of golf. "The call of the links Is always ringing In my ears," said Ouimet, "but I will give up the game rather than stand for such unfair treatment." Ditcrimination It Alleged Friends of Ouimet are emphatic in their charge that the Boston boy is the victim of open discrimination in the ruling of the golf association. They point out that such men as Chick Evans, present national amateur and open champion, is writing regular articles for newspapers and intimate that Chick is not giving the public the benefit of his valuable pointers for no remuneration. And Evans' case Is not isolated by any means.

Other amateurs are said to have retained their amateur standing despite indulgence In newsiaper work or the laying out of golf courses. Ouimet with Sullivan was pushed into the professional clasj. because they opened a spotting goods store in Boston, the officials contending that the golfers were using their skill as a commercial asset, or words to that effect. The fact that the store was stocked with all kinds of sporting goods as well as golf supplies evidently did not enter into the controversy. Reinttatement Would Pleate Many.

Before going into business for himself, Ouimet worked for a larg- sporting goods firm In Boston and was an employe of this firm when he won his amateur title. His friend also claim that owners of other sporting good stores in Boston are still bona-flde members of the golf association. In fact, they belong to the Woodland Club. President Frank L.

Ormlston, secretary, Point Build- PITT Fe-lwelJ against Warner! That's the big feature of the epochal clash on Saturday, when the big team from Old Penn comes here to fight it out with Pitt In the game which means everything to the championship prospects of each of the big rival universities. Fol-well's system and Folwell's personality against the football brains and character of "Pop" Warner. Folwell has coached some of the best teams this state has seen, and his 1916 Penn crowd is as good as any of them. Eastern critics say. He has the memory of last year's double overthrow to avenge, for Warner won out over both W.

J. and Penn in 1915. The Penn team arrives early Friday morning, and will be given the use of Forbes Field in the afternoon for a session before the local players arrive. Coach Folwell will have an opportunity to test Out his men in secret, if he wishes to do so; and they can familiarize themselves with the conditions which will govern the game next day, minus the crowd, the noise, and the Panthers. All day Friday trains will be bringing in Penn ahouters, undergraduates, to swell the roll cf Red and Blue backers, for thousands of "old grads," gathered here for the three-day Associate Penn Clubs meeting which opens today, will be already on the ground.

The Pitt team has practiced steadily this week, Warner surprising spectators by going back to the elements of the game on Monday and Tuesday, drilling his men in falling on the ball and tackling. Two short scrimmages have been held. W. J. WASHINGTON, PA, Oct.

25. Yale scored twice on Washington and Jefferson this afternoon. While this statement is not literally true, it is a fact, in a way, nevertheless. The exact truth is that the W. J.

third team, using Yale plays and formations, registered two scores on Sol Metzger's -varsity at College Feld. The varsity play continued to be ragged and was disheartening to the coaches. The scrimmage was the final one before the Yale game of Saturday, and has not boosted W. stock in this important game among its local supporters. Metxger tonight decided to take 22 men on the -Yale trip, but will not make known the list until some time tomorrow.

He plans to have from two to four men available for every position, and in selecting the men will do so with the view of being prepared to present the strongest possible front in case of injuries to regulars. The officials for the Vale game were announced today as follows: Referee, Fred W. Murphy, Brown; umpire. Tom Thorp, Columbia: linesman, M. J.

Thompson, Georgetown; field judge, J. A. Evans, Williams. The lineup starting the game probably will be: Left end. Tresse; left tackle, Henry: left guard, Capt.

Wim-berly; right guard. Jack Drew; right tackle. Carroll: right end. Whitehill; quarter, Stobbs; left half, Giirley; right half. Nuss or.

Fain; fullback. McCreighU PENNSYLVANIA STATE. STATE COLLEGE, PA Oct. 26. (Special.) The newly constructed varsity got into action this afternoon in full blast against the Freshmen team and ran up a score of three touchdowns in the hour's scrimmage.

Jones wna acain worked at quarterback. Bobb Beck and Hess filling the other places. Capt. Clark will not be in the i game this Saturday nor the Geneva, as he is away on a chemistry trip. McKelvey of last year's Kiskl team I punted the ball out of danger.

For the first year men on both occasions Conover was again played at center, while Swain was shifted to end. Neither Higgins nor Ege were in the workout as both are badly injured as result from the game last Saturday. MARIETTA. MARIETTA. Oct.

25. Coach Drumm will spend the week In working up the efficiency of rhe interference on end runs. Marietta proved to be very weak in this branch of the fame last Saturday In the game with t. Marys. Hard work along this line will be the order for the next two weeks when Marietta will meet West Virginia Wesleyan In the most important game of the home schedule.

Marietta meets Bethany Saturday and if tht-y play up to the standard that tney have set so far this season, the Biue arid White wiil have to be In the game all the, time to corne out a winner. MUSKiNGUM. KEW CONCORD. Oct. 25.

Having disposed of the heavy work for Saturday's game with Thiel College in the scrimmage held Tuesday, the Carnegie Tech grldders merely went through a light practice yesterday.

Coach Steffen is treating his athletes a little leniently in the matter of work this week, and he realizes they will be pressed very hard next week in preparation for the game with Cornell at Ithaca one week from Saturday. The Cornell team meets Harvard at Cambridge next Saturday and will be at its best from just about the time Tech will be called upon to meet it. A larger number of alumni than was expected has signified its desire to attend the game with Cornell and to make the trip with the team at the special low party rate. Manager Tom Orr Is completing all arrangements and all applictions of those who have not yet got into line will have to be in his hands not later than Tuesday of next week, as the team leaves Thursday night. Manager Orr can be reached at the school.

Such is the opinion of Fred- 1 erick W. Rubien. secretary-treasurer of the Amateur Athletic Union. However, if the victories of Scandinavia are to mean anything, the amateur authority says there will be an American invasion by these same Swedish stars in the near future. The expense problem of bringing the stars here can be overcome, Mr.

Rubien stated, for there are enough interested of the Swedish countrymen who would be willing to see their stars in competition, and possibly bring back home the supremacy. But as yet all the glory is America's, said Mr. Rubien. and the victories of the Swedes mean nothing. AMATEUR BASKETBALL.
