TWO OF GREATEST
FOOTBALL GAMES
This Year's Penn-Micfoigan Bat
tle Stili Talked About.
QUAKERS' STIRRING FINISH,
Won After Being Twenty-one Points
Behind Yale Princeton Contest of
.' 1895 Belongs High Up In List of
Notable Gridiron Classics.
Philadelphia football experts are of
the opiniou that the last Penn-Hichi-gan
battle was the. "greatest, football
game ever played." It wasn't contend
ed that the teams that played it were
great teams, but that the contest itself
was great, and no doubt it was. It
contained all the elements of great
ness, using the word in a certain sport
ing sense, and surely it was one of the
most eventful of games. It was great
in its excitement, its fine rallies,, the
spirit shown by the Quakers, its action
and its stirring finish." Moreover, lathe
fact that Penn won after being twenty-one
points behind is just about un
paralleled in football. .
There are no doubt many opinions of
what is the greatest game ever played,
and it Is a difficult matter to pin that
description to any one game. Few, if
any, have ever seen a game which was
as great, if constant action, exciting
ebb and flow of battle, uncertainty as
to the finish and big things by teams
and individuals make greatness, as the
Yale-Princeton game of 1895 at Man
hattan field. New York. It was a vor
tex of strenuous strife from beginning
to end. with both teams doing a lot
and with long runs, blocked kicks and
touchdowns crowding hard on the heels
. of one another.
The score of that epic conflict was 20
to 10 In favor of Yale, and any time
there's a game with both sides scoring

MABSHALL OP FENN, WHOSE TOUCHDOWN
DEFEATED MICHIGAN.
it's more interesting than when both
sides don't Yale made four touch
downs and Princeton two. Among oth
er things which happened were:
Bass, a Yale end. got the ball on a
.tumble on Yale's fifty yard line and
ran sixty yards for" the first touch
down. Yale was busy blocking kicks
that autumn afternoon and blocked
kicks always make the red blood leap.
Charles Chadwick blocked three, on
one of which Yale recovered the ball
on Princeton's fifteen yard line, and
Thome the incomparable Thorne,
who was a Coy, a Brickley and a
Thorpe in the battle went over on the
next play for a touchdown.
The score was 12 to 0 at th end of
the first half, and it looked rosy for
Tale, but in the second half the Tigers
made a mighty brace and threw a
scare into the Blue ranks before the
struggle ended In the dark. With
Bannard and Kelly bucking the line
and Princeton never has had a better
back than Kelly Princeton rushed the
ball from . the center of the field to
Yale's ten yard line. Here Yale brac
ed, took tyie leather on downs and
Thorne ran, a punt from Yale's fifty
yard line to Princeton's fifteen. From
there a touchdown was made. No goal
ras kicked and Yale had sixteen
points to Princeton's none. '-"
Then the Tiger awoke. Bannard and
Kelly ripped into the Blue line and
Princeton went sixty yards for a
touchdown. A few minutes later a
punt by Jerrems was blocked by Ty
ler, the Princeton tackle. The ball
carromed back to Yale's line and in
the wild scramble for it Thompson of
Princeton nailed it for a touchdown.
Yale now was only six- points ahead,
and it was anybody's game until Just
. before the finish Thorne. with as thril
ltug a run as ever was seen, went
forty-five yards for a touchdown on ft
fa kick.
Montenegro's Easy Going' Prison.
The cetitraprlson at Cetinje is prob
ably the most easy going in the world.
No walls surround it. and the inmates,
who furnish their own cells, just as
they please, seem to stay there only be
cause they find their quarters comfort
' able. ' The diet is liberal, with wine on
occasions and always cigarettes. There
is no work to do, no distinctive garb is
worn and comparatively free inter
course is allowed with the outside
world. ' On certain feast days, indeed,
the prisoners are even allowed to en
tertain friends.

KOHLEMAINENS, RUNNERS,

Here's sonwthini; iibout the two
famous ..Kohleniiiiueri , brothers, a
Bill, the professional.' and Han-

followers of sports perhaps don't
know the pair are vegetarinns.
Neither one has eaten any meat
for more than four years.
Bill . got the vegetable habit
from Gusta Ljungstrom. the
Swedish professional, who' ran
some sensational races here in
1908, Bill induced Hannes to be
come a vegetarian, and the pair
are ardent devotees of the so
called fad..

COLLEGE BASKETBALL
Dr. Raycroft Succeeds Hyatt as Presi
dent Changes In Rules.
Several ... important . changes have
been made in the Intercollegiate Bas
ketball league preparatory to what
promises to be the most, successful
,ve:ir in the history of the league. Dr."
Joseph E. Raycroft of Princeton uni
versity succeeds U. B. Hyatt of Yale
as president. The withdrawal of Hy
att is only temporary and due to'the
reorganization of sports at Yale. The
newly elected president has devoted
much time to college basketball, having
been its leading exponent in the west
prior to his leaving Chicago University
and entering Princeton.
-The league rules have" heen simpli
fied for the coming year, and the
game, in addition to being spectacular,
will be better miderstood by the spec
tators. The one hand dribble, will pre
vail this year, as last, with the idea
of developing more team . work and
less individual play.
Dartmouth, which was admitted to
the league last . rear; has been given
a place on the executive committee,
thereby entitling it to a full voice in
the league. . . .
The furnishing of officials :' by the
league for all the gahies was so suc
cessful last year that It has been
made permanent, and oiiicials for this
season's games will be selected by the
excutive committee. The schedule fol

EACOM CLEVER QUARTERBACK
Wesleyan Field General Has Played
-Brilliant Game This Year.'
Bacon, liie Wesleyan quarterback,
one of the very few high class quar
ters of the season, is a flue punter in
addition to li:s other claims to gridiron
greatness. . lie has outpunted every
body who has been stacked up against
him. His. long, spiral punts average,
it is declared, over forty-five yards.
That's a cracking good average.
Just how good it Is may be judged
from a comparison with the punts of
Felton of! Harvard recently. Felton Is
rated about the best punter on the
Atlantic seaboard, but good as his
booting was against Princeton It didn't
average . orty-five yards. '. The' 'aver
ages were thirty-eight yards In the
first half and forty-two In the. second.
An average of forty-five yards Is great
punting sure enough.-
