Philadelphla, Nov, 7—Cornell closed her erratic_season this afternoon by defeating the University of Pennsylva-~ nia for the second time in the 31 years the two teams have met in football contests. The score-was 21 to 0. It was a glorions victory for the Ithacans | and it was joyously celebrated by the 3,600 studeits who came down from Cornell to see the aprual batile. Cor- nell’s only other victory against Penn- sylvania was in 1901, when the big red team won by the score of 38 to 6. In 1906 the teams played a scoreless tie Corneil Shows Superiority. With the exception of punting and forward passing, Cornell showed su- game. Her ability to advance the ball through the line and her quickness in fathoming Pennsylvania’s intricate play surprised the followers of the Quakers. The home eleven tried ev- erything it had in the way of new and old football and Cornell was always there to stop it. with one conspicuous exception. This was in the third peri- od, when Captain Young of Pennsylva- nia ran 42 yards after receiving the ball from Chester Minds on a delayed pass. It was the longest sprint of the game. Cornell played a powerful offensive game, especially in the first period, when the New York state eleven scored two touchdowns. Getting the ball in about midfield, Cornell twice took it over by straight football smashes against Pennsylvania’s center and tackles, and by short dashes outside of tackles. Freak Touchdown. The second touchdown was made on more or less of a freak play. Cornell had iaken the ball to the 1) yard line, where Barrett tried a field goal.

Pennsylvania once had an opportunity for a field goal, but a forward pass was tried for a possible touchdown. and it was not a success. Fritz and Barrett played dashing football for Cornell, while Minds, de- spite his injured shoulder, punted well.

John McGraw Says Pitchers’ Battles Delight Fans. “It has been an idea abroad for many vears that the fans like a_lot of hitting in a game,” said John M Graw. “I have always thought so m: self until I started on this trip, when I discovered it to be otherwise. The fans out in the west like to watch 1 to 0 battles. I am certain of that. When it might be expected that a hard hitting game would be a delight to the eve, the fans begin to yell about taking the pitcher-out. As a matter of fact, the batters have had all the best of it from the start, as they came linto the game seasoned, while some of the pitchers did not. It hurts a pitcher to lay off for a while, and the batters have taken advantage of this; |hence the big scores in the majority “With the weather we hit at Los An- geles, and which we are likely to have with us for a few days’ the pitchers should be getting better all the time. Tesreau was good, as was Faber, who succeeded Leverenz in the box for the Sox. The fact that we were tied when we had the game sewed up should not be charged up against Tesreau. He had as much on the ball as he had at any time, but a couple of bad breaks ind him apparently put him in the The misplay of Magee, which cost a couple of runs, is liable to happen to almost anybody, but you would not expect it from such a wide-awake player as Magee. “Both the public and the press only discovered since we came here that the games we play are on the level, and some favorable comments have been made on the way we have been playing. I might say that there was as much feeling between the teams without being nasty in the games as there is any time during the season and the umpires take a hand jin the fray in the bargain. Although I do nog think the umpires are always right T think that after a while the players will get used to the fact that disci- pline goes on any kind of trip, and this is bound to have a great influence on the conduct of future exhibition games, It would be a good thing were every exhibition game in which major-league players took part under the juris tion of one or the other leagues or of the mational commission. That would hippodroming and make the games more classy. “Both players and managers have been mightily pleased at the way the fans have treated us out here, both in respect to number, as well as en- tertainments. We played to practically 20,000 people in L« Angeles and, should we have fine weather in Frisco, the chances are This we will also do well T eat Dball country, despite the fact that they ha he longest season here of any league. hey turn out to see the major league ball player a RIVERS DEFEATS CROSS.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov Joe Riv- ors, the Mexican _pugilist, defeated Leach Cross, the New York light- weight, in 20 rounds of fighting at | the Ve ion arena today. Cross had a marked advantage five rounds, while Rivers led in 12, Referee George Rlake's decision was popular with the crowd The most spectacular of Tounds was the 19th, when Cross, ap parently tired and beaten, electrified his supperters by leaping after Rivers and fighting him off his feet. At the bell the Mexican was hanging on. Riverg' first knockdown was scored in the fourth with 'a short left hook j Cross remained down for nine. Rivers repeated this the 20 feat in the 12th, flooring C'ross with right and left swings to the face. Cross was plainly dazed and once more took the count of nine. CLABBY BEATS LOGAN.

I am well aware that many people will be happy today without much thought of God or His Providence in their lives. Content to perform their religious duties, it may be, by DProxy, but after all, {s it not the faith of the few that supplies the foundation for the light hearted and indifferent. Devoutly thankful ought we to be that the same faith which inspired the fathers to set apart this way is with us yet. Led the Pilgrims. Surely it was their faith. in God, this sense of the nearness of his actual presence which led the pilgrim fath- ers forth, like Abraham of old, who, when he was called went out not know- whither he went, The epic of that sublime exodus has yet to be written, and written 1 sure- 1y will be when some Homer or Shake- speare of the future shall tell the story with that wealth of creative imagina- tlon which is the peculiar power of genius. " Since the First Thanksgiving. Less than 300 years have passed .'V;% since the first Thanksgiving. - at wonderful changes have taken place—what progress has been made. Changes and progress utterly incon- ceivable to the minds of the fathers. In the heart of the trackless and impenetrable forests, so ominous and foreboding to the eerly settlers, great citles and towns flourish and the des- ert and wilderness blossom as the rose. Instead of a few small struggling col- onies we see a mighty nation. We behold a nation builded upon prin- ciples such as were deemed impossible Dy the statesmen and philogophers con- temporary with its founding—a na- tion which has united democracy and nationality, securing to itselt both liberty and continuity. As God presided over its birth, sure- ly He has also been with this nation | through all the great crises through which it has passed. In the quiet peaceful exodus of thou- sands and millions from every nation, clime and tongue, God is forming an amalgamated nation such as the world had not dreamed of before. The critic may exclaim doubtfullys “It is an experiment.” Is it not a suf- ficlent answer to say, “But it is God's own experiment.” Immigration founded this mation and has made it what it is and will be in the future. Still in the Making. Truth to tell, the American people are still in the making. There is a tremendous mixing of ingredients in process, the outcome of which it is impossigle for us to foretell, but God Almighty is doing the mixing and by a divine alchemy which He alone mnn- derstands. I have faith to believe that though the process be strenuous, the final outcome will be all right. Garners Full to Overflowing. The past year has been ome of un- usual prosperity—our garners are full to_overflowins. Trade and commerce show no de- crease. ‘We are thankful that during the yea; we have not been forced to the dres arbitrament of war, vet never has our nation stood o high in the estimation of other powers as she does this day. Thankful we ought to be as we dis- cern the continued progress of & posi- tive ethical revival in our business and political relations which fills each of us with hope for the future. Iet us pray and work that this may go on until our nation shall not only be in- fluenced but actually controlled by Christianity. The American people, judged by what they have, should be the happiest and most contented people in the world— but such is not the case. It might be an_exaggeration to sy we are the most discontented and dls- satisfied people on the face of the earth. Certainly we can point to peoples who have far less and who are far happier and contented. Crow: Too Much Into Dne Lif We strive to crowd into the space of one ordinary life that of three. ‘We rush from one thing to another. from one place to another, from fad to fad. We mistake hustle and bustle for Teal activity. Most of us are busy doing a multi- tude of things that need not be done, and, in fact, would be better left un- done, While our life is not lacking in bril- Maney, It is certainly lacking in depth.
