PENNY WANTS GAME EAQTERNER8 ANXI0U8 TO MEET CHICAGO NEXT FALL. PLAY CONSERVATIVE E00TBUL Coach 8tagg Impressed With Work of Individuals, But Says There Is a Lack of Daring At tacks in the East. CHICAGO, 111., Doc. 1. Moro large games for tho Maroons woro bagged by Director Stagg while ho was In the east. Upon his urrival home yester day tho coach stated that Cornell and Chicago probably would meet In an indoor track meet this winter. Nego tiations havo not yet been closed, ac cording to tho conch, but tho meet Is assured, as both colleges desire such a contest. This was not tho only piece of good news which Stagg brought back with him. Chicago would havo littlo dlf culty, he Buid, In arranging for a gamo next fall with Pennsylvania if tho MarooiiB wanted one, but It is probable tho game will not bo played, as Chicago, In Stagg's opinion, has all and possibly more Uian it can handle next fall. This breaking down of the old bar rier between eaBt and wcBt, as shown by the willingness of both Cornell and Pennsylvania to meet tho Ma roons In track and football, wbb hailed with delight by tho 'Midway Btudents last night. They bollovo it paves the way to at least one annual match with tho oast in each branch of tho major sports. Will Be Feature of Season. As Cornell has been leader In track athletics In the east for the last two years and as the Maroons are the present conference track champions, the moot, which In all probability will be hold in Chicago, will be the feature of tho Maroons' indoor season. No date has been set for tho meet, but It probably will take place late in the winter season. Stagg had little idea of garnishing his schedules with eastern teams whon ho left for tho east last Wednes day. A Cornell official suggested a dual Indoor meet between Cornell and Chicago. This idea Stagg seized upon at once, and expressed a willingness on his part to take on the Ithaca in the clothing business and team. So negotiations begun more or Icbs unofficially. This will bo tho first time a Chicago track team has met an eastorn team Indoors. Several years ago tho Ma roons mot Princeton outdoors at Mar shall flold and lost by a small margin. Track 8quad 8trong. Stagg is looking forward to tho con test with much interest, ns ho con siders the material in Bight for hl& team this year to be at least as good tnd probably better than it was last year; Cornell also has a strong nu cleus, having its two Btars, Coo'x. who won tho Olympic polo vault last sum mer, and Talbot, the champion weight thrower, again eligible. While little Beems. to stand in the way of a Pennsylvania-Chicago gamo for next year, it is probable that tho Quakers and Mnrcons will not meet on tho football field in 1909, as the Maroons have too heavy a schedule ulready in sight Since Stagg has declared that it will be impossible even to meet' Michigan, should Michi gan come back into tho conferoacei fold, it is also jmp-ssihlo for the Ma roons to meet tho Quakers.

The men "f both teams played with a terrible do 'crminatlon and yet there was the finest kind of spirit between the two tonins. I was not bo much ImnreBsed with the team work ub with the In dividual' play. For Instance, only two forward pnsseB were made in the cranio Each team made one.

"Pr.th the Army and Navy teams had three or four sar" whoso play stood out prominently. The Navy quarterVack was extremely good, espe cially in running with the ball in the open." Stagg said ho hnd made no ar rangements about his 1909 football schedules. Ho declared ho did not know what team's, other thun those with which he had contracts, Chicago would play. Tho coach returned enrlied than h had expected. Ho gave up his plans of visiting eastern gymnasiums and athletic fields. ATTACKED A SORORITY GIRL. Negro Invaded Sorority House and Choked Inmate.
