SLDIERS FAVORITE OVER NAVY

iidshipmen, However, Expected to Put Up Hard Battle Against Cadets.

GREAT CROWD TO SEE FRACAS

Turnout of More Than 33,000 Have Tickets for Annual Clash Between Government

Teams.

PHILADELPHIA, P*., Nov. 28.—The great annual outdoor sporting spectacle, the Army-Navy football contest, with Its attendant glitter of goldbraided uniforms, the patriotic music of the big brass bands, the riot of colors and the inspiring marching of midshipmen and cadets, found the weather all that was to be desired for the game on Franklin field today. The sky was clear and there was crispness in the air that made heavy wraps feel comfortable. More than 33,000 tickets were issued and the crowd that went to Frankllp field was the largest that ever saw an Army-Navy game in Philadelphia. A few tickets were in the hands of speculators despite the rigid rules laid down for the distribution of seats and these brought prohibitive prices.

The soldiers entered today's game a slight favorite, largely because their season's record showed up better than that of the sailors. The midshipmen always put up a hard battle, and It Is traditional of the game between these two arms of the government service that the favorite team seldom wins. The coacheB before the game reported their elevens In excellent condition. While partisans of the army team are taking some bets at 9 to 8 and 5 to 4, a good many wagers were made at even money.

Keep Away from Crowd*. The two teams were kept away from the crowds in the hotel district. After breakfast the men broke into groups for a short walk about the city and before luncheon there was the usual final talks to the men behind closed doors.

Special trains carrying thousands of rooters came rolling in from New York and Washington early in the day, and continued to arrive until shortly before the game began. The Washington contingent was unusually large, several members of President Wilson's cabinet being Included in the crowd. Most of the general staff of the army and practically all of the ranking officers of the navy stationed in the eastern part of the country were in the city to see the game.

The regiment of midshipmen from Annapolis and the battalion of cadets from West Point arrived in special .trains during the morning and were given a short furlough before the game to meet relatives and friends. The two contingents are under the same strict discipline while in the city as under the rules at the academies. ARMY Pos. NAVY Neyland L. E Overesch Butler L. McCoach Meacham L.

NEW YORK, Nov. 28.—Sam McVey, the colored heavyweight, well known ln^ Paris and points east, arrived in America with a wondrous tale to tell, which was dragged out of him despite Sam's well known hatred of publicity. Sam had sailed from Australia and had made the trip via Colombo, Ceylon, the gulf of Aden, the Persian gull', Mozambique, Lorenzo, Marques, Portuguese East Africa, and a lot of other places that he either hadn't learned the name of or couldn't pronounce if he had heard it.

On July 12 McVey left Melbourne on the North German Lloyd steamship Zietan, bound for England. "There was come conglomeration aboard that craft," said McVey on landing. "There was, first, muhself and thirteen other Americans, about thirty-odd Englishman—and they suah were odd—and some Roosians and Frenchmen, and Rumanians and jest common mongrels that I didn't recognize. "I wanted to get to London to get a chance to show that big cup of wine Jelly, Jack Johnson, what a real fighter is, for my manager said he thought he could up a match, but I didn't know lhat these here kings were flixing up a war—I didn't know it, nohew. "Well, one morning we got a wireless that there was a suah enough war broke loose and there was a whole flock of British fighting boats a-hunt-ing fcr our ship, the German boat Zietan. "Ooh, I don't mind this fighting on dr-y land, where you can jump out of the ring or throw up the sponge when you've got enough or stall around until the end of the round, but I could jus'c see what round two would do to our boat if any of those scrappin' Britishers should get us. Lois a good it would do to throw up a sponge way out there, a million miles frcm homo and mammy. So I agreed with the boss man of our ship when he decided that sidisteppin' ard covertn' up was the better part of valor. "Then we backed up and hustled south and then we dodged around some more. Lordee! I dunno where all we went. The captain told us that we webe all undei martial law and that anybedy that went around looglng for trouble wouldn't amount to nothing moh than a good fish dinner about a minute after he started a roughhouse.

service teams have had no common opponent. Last year the army won by 22 to 9 and a victory for West Point today will ,make the series a tie with fight games each r^ince it began in 18110. The season in New York ends with one of the most important games ol' the year—the specially arranged match which brings together Washington and Jefferson, conrnierer of Yale and to 10 loser to Harvard, and Rut-

This game is at the polo grounds. A game worthy of mention when dis-cus-sing college football will be piayed at Boston today between the Everette, Mass., hiph school eleven, regarded as Boston's best school boy combination in vears. and the Oak Park, Til., high school team. Tn this Intersectional contest the westerners in the past have far outclassed the eastern players.

"One day some time after that we met up with a German warship, the Koenigsberg, and while we were with her they put a new suit of clothes on the Zietan, the same color as a Brit-ish-India boat. "Those Germans on the Koenigsberg were certainly some fluent talkers they didn't mind what they said. They told us Germany was beating the life out of everybody in sight she had this here battle royal won two minutes after the be 11 rang. She had squashed France, chased the Russians up the north pole, had England leaning against the ropes, and was just about ready to make a mouthful of Patagonia and Spitzenberg.

CHICAGO, Nov. 28.—Uresident Chas.

NOIRE DAME EARNS A HIGH PLACE IN WEST

Victory Over Syracuse Gives Irish Equal Claim to Title With Dlini and Nebraska.

Notre Dame's decisive victory over Syracuse, 20 to 0, in a game which gives the Hoosier eleven an equal claim to the western championship with Illinois and Nebraska, Pennsylvania's hard fought battle against Cornell, which the Ithacans won, 24 to 12. and Pittsburgh's one-sided defeat of Penn State, 13 to 3, were the struggles which featured the turkey day contests.

Although Notre Dame was beaten by the Army and Yale, Harper's eleven has met and defeated such strong teams as the Haskell Indians and South Dakota, 4nd its victory over the New York eleven, the team which decisively defeated Michigan, entitles It to recognition. The South Benders played good football against Syracuse. They dls-

layed the same kind of offensive and football as they dtd against the Carlisle Indians at the Sox ball park on November 14.

It was expected Cornell would win from Pennsylvania, but even the most enthusiastic Quaker enthusiast did not expect Penn to give the Ithacans such a hard battle. The Philadelphia aggregation outplayed the big red team in the early stages of the contest, and it only was the superior team play of the Ithaca eleven which enabled it to win in the latter stages of the bitterly fought contest.

Penn Get* Credit.

Although the Cornell eleven was groomed for this battle, Penn must be given a lot of credit for the way it reorganized its team after its decisive defeat at the hands of Dartmouth. The Quakers were beaten decisively by Michigan and on the following Saturday Cornell administered Just as bad a beating to the Wolverine*. Considering its defeats at the hands of Michigan and Dartmouth and the gradual improvement of Cornell since the middle of the soason, Pennsylvania deserves much credit for its last game.

Pittsburgh came into its own by defeating Penn State, 18 to 3, in one of the best games played in Pennsylvania this year. As a result of this contest the smoky city aggregation should be given recognition when the final rating of the eastern elevens is made.

Brown showed iteelf to be a strong team by beating the Carlisle Indians, 20 to 14. The Provldenoe eleven has played good football all season and its Victory over the Rodsklns, although they cannot be said to be a strong aggregation this season, entitles it to consideration.

GRID HEROES TO BATTLE.

BOSTON, Mass., Nov. 28.—The Carlisle Indians today will play the AllStars at Fenway park for the war relief fund. The All-Stars are composed of former players of Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Princeton and otrer colleges, and have been coached by Percy D. Haughton, Harvard's coach.

They will be captained by Ham Fish, the best tackle Harvard ever had, ana Mahan, of this year's Harvard team, will play at left half. Steve Phylbin, the brilliant Yalo back of several years ago, will be Mahan's running mate. Win Snow, of Dartmouth, will also be In the back field, and Felton, famous Harvard punter, will be at one end. Ftndleton, of Princeton, end other notables, alro will get into the game. The team probably will b« the greatest gregratlon of stars that ever played.

NO CHANGE IN 1915 FEDERAL CIRCUIT

President Gilmore issues Statement Prior to Meeting of Magnates At Chicago.

CHICAGO, Nov. 28.—There will be no change in the 191b circuit of the Federal league, it was announced before club owners of the league were called to attend the first session of the league's annual meeting, which opened here today.

Kansas City, which was regarded as a disappointment last season, will retain Its franchise, President James Gilmore, president of the league anounced. Business men of the city, he said, objected to having the club transferred and promised to support it. It is planned, President Gilmore said, to build a new park nearer the business district of the city.

A rumor was circulated that Artie Hofman, formerly with the Chicago and Pittsburgh clubs of the National league, would probably be the next manager of the Brooklyn club of the Federal league instead of Lee Magee, who recently was reported to have Jumped from the St. Louis Nationals.

Committees to revise the rules and arrange a playing schedule were to be appointed at the meeting, It is said. The following club owners were expected to attend the sessions: Chicago, Charles Weeghman and William Walker Brooklyn, Robert B., George H. and Walter Ward Pittsburgh, Edward C. Winner and C. B. Comstock St. LOUIB, Edward Steinlnger, Ott Stifel and Philip Ball Baltimore, Carroll Raisin, Harry Goldman and Edward Hanlon Kansas City, S. C. Madison Buffalo, Walter Mullen and William E. Robertson Indianapolis, J. F. Krause and John A. George.

CRACK HURLER MPS

CHICAGO, Nov. 28.—Ray Caldwell, pitcher for the New York Americans, will pitch for the Buffalo Federals next year, according to Richard Carroll, business manager of the Buffalo club, who arrived .here today to attend the Federal league meeting. "Caldwell oigned up last August on a three-year contract," said Carroll, "the only thing hanging over hlni Is the reeerve clause and that the courts have held to be invalid."

A story yesterday from New York said that a trade was planned by which Caldwell would have gone to the Philadelphia Americans, and Oldring, a fielder, and Jack Lapp, catcher, to the New York Americana This trade, it was hoped, would prevent Caldwell's jumping to the Federal league.

AMUSEMENTS.

By Hlqu O'Brien

At advanced prices "The Spoilers" 'Packed the Grand at both performance* and the matinee crowds were n-uch larger than usual. This Is remarkable In view of the fact that "The" Spoilers" had a week's run at the Varieties last spring. William Farnum, who was rather disappointing in "The Redemption of David Corson," is excellent in "The Spoilers," and Kathlyn Williams, too, does some fine acting. "-The Spollere" will be shown again this afternoon and tonight. Sunday's film feature will be the Charles E. Blaney melodrama, "AcroeB the Pacific."

The mall order system of reserving seats for Important attractions Inaugurated by Manager Smith, of the Grand, is working out splendidly. There were mail orders for the Billie Burke and "Seven Keys to Baldpate" engagements amounting to nearly 81,000 before the box office sale began. It looks very much like capacity audiences for both Miss Burke in her new comedy, "Jerry." and George M. Cohan's best play on Monday and Tuesday nights. A1 G. Field's minstrels will htve the usual crowds on Wednesday. There are also plenty of inquiries regcrding "The Blue Bird" engagement.

Miss Burke has been pdaying to capacity audiences in nearly every city the plays, and "Seven Keys to Baldpate' Is the dramatic sensation of the year, Just as "Within the Law" was last year.'

Grace Cameron lends distinction to the present bill at the Varieties. One of Miss Cameron's best songs is "Heaven Will Protect the Working Girl." She is negotiating with Will Hamilton and Dayton Payne for the rights to "Everyone Has a Hobby" and "She Changed Her Name From Casey to O'Brien," two of the song hits in "Twenty-five Minutes From Terre Hiaute."

"The Blue Bird," asually a two-dollar entertainment will be presented at ?1.50 high at the Grand next Friday and Saturday, with spcclal prices for school children at the Saturday matinee. The New York cast and production will be brought here. Little Jack Davis will be seen as Tyllyl and his playmate, Harriet Men-lel, as MytyL There are nearly one hundred people employed In this fairy spectacle.

"The Marconi Operator," a three-reel film thriller, made In Copenhagen, will be shown at the Savoy Sunday. Today's feature Is "Tig^r fot a Million."

A Blograph drama, featuring George Morgan and Louise Vale, and a Vitagraph comedy, featuring Billy Quirk and Constance Talmadge, are on view at the Fountain today.

Miss Billie Burke is one of the very few actresses who didn't go to Europe last summer and come back with a harrowing tale of the difficulties sjie had in getting out of the war zone. I Miss Burke usually spends her summers in Europe and Ehe was going as usual this year. Just the day before she was to sail, though, her mother was taken ill, and Mies Burke, who is a very devoted daughter, cancelled her patsage, had her trunks unpacked and sat down to nurse the invalid. "We were up* at Bnrkclelgh Crest, my home on the Hudson," says the actress, "and by the time that mother was well again I had fallen so in love with the place that I decided not to go away at all. Tou see I haven't owned the place very long and I had never had a chance to get really acquainted with it in the summer time. "I'm, very glad new I stayed. For one tiling, I'd probably have had -an awful time getting back and, besides, I learned that I have one of the most delightful homes in the world. It was the happiest vacation I ever had. I just romped all summer. I rode arid

I walked in the woods and I motored a.nd I gardened and played golf and ter.nis and croquet and swam in my own big swimming pool, and I didn't care how many freck)es I got. "People tell me I'm looking unusually well. It was just home and fresh air that did It."

George M. Cohan's play, "Seven Keys to Baldpate," which comes to the Grand Tuesday night, is described as a wonderfully entertaining play of laughs, mystery, melodrama and thrills. The company that will interpret it includes Cyril Scott. John O'Hara, Ernest Geyer, Spencer Carters, Frank Allworth, Frank Monrce, Hooker Wright, Lee Sterrett. Walter D. Greene, Laura Bennett, Ethel IntropodI, Christine Mayo, Jean Shelby, Rita Harlan, Hazel Traverse, Fannie Mackey.

This is the company that ap.peared during the long Chicago run of the piece and later went into New York.

"DADDY'S DAT' AT CHURCH.
