1914 Lubin vault fire, Lubin's bankruptcy and closure
The next year, in 1915, in an effort to improve substantially his company's theatrical releases, Siegmund Lubin more than doubled the budgets for future screen projects, a move that required more loans and shutting down some operations outside of Pennsylvania to save money. Further exacerbating the studio's rising monetary pressures were the continuing legal expenses needed to defend itself in copyright and patent lawsuits filed by Edison, along with costs associated with countering federal anti-trust prosecutions. Additional loans and attempts to restructure the business failed.


1914 Lubin vault fire, Lubin's bankruptcy and closure
As a result, Siegmund Lubin effectively retired from the film industry in the final months of 1916, and news items the following year were referring to his business as the "old" and the "late Lubin Company". That year both Lubinville and Betzwood, which had continued to operate under receivership, were also sold.


1914 Lubin vault fire, Lubin's bankruptcy and closure
Sadly, today only a fraction of the estimated total of 3,000 theatrical releases produced by Siegmund Lubin survives; the rest are forever lost due to dismissive neglect, to excessive screenings and mishandling as they moved from theater to theater, to improper storage, age and nitrate decomposition, and, most notably, to the devastating vault fire of 1914.

1914 North East Derbyshire by-election
The North East Derbyshire by-election was a Parliamentary by-election. It returned one Member of Parliament (MP)  to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, elected by the first past the post voting system. About a third of the electorate were directly involved in the mining industry. This was the penultimate by-election to take place before the outbreak of the First World War. It demonstrated the weakness of support for the Labour party in 1914 when opposed by a Liberal party candidate.


1914 North East Derbyshire by-election, Vacancy
The by-election was caused by the death of the sitting MP, W. E. Harvey on 28 April 1914 of pneumonia. He had represented the seat since 1907 when he was elected as a Liberal.


1914 North East Derbyshire by-election, Electoral history
Harvey was a senior figure within the Derbyshire Miners Association and also prominent in the Miners Federation of Great Britain. However, in 1909, when the latter body determined to instruct all sponsored miners MPs to take the Labour party whip, Harvey was forced to change his political allegiance. He was re-elected as a Labour candidate in both 1910 general elections when the Liberal party decided not to put up a separate candidate and instead to support Harvey. At the last general election, he was comfortably returned;

The Liberal campaign was dealt an early blow when their Constituency Organiser, Samuel Short, who would have been their By-election Agent, died.


1914 North East Derbyshire by-election, Campaign
Given that a third of the electorate were directly involved in the mining industry, issues affecting the industry should have dominated the campaign. However the issues surrounding the selection of Martin caused a falling out between the Liberal and Labour parties that cast a shadow over other issues. For the Labour Party, this seemed like an ideal situation to take on the Liberal Party over the issue of miners representation. Their candidate had the official backing of the local miners association and their Liberal opponent was one of bosses the union dealt with.

John Houfton attended the national Liberal Council meeting where he gave a speech about the by-election, in an effort to rally Liberal support from outside the constituency.

Electors went to the polls on 20 May 1914. Despite a fall in the Unionist vote share, their candidate gained the seat from the Labour Party, due to a split in the progressive vote;


1914 North East Derbyshire by-election, Result
Bowden attributed his victory mainly to his opposition to Irish Home Rule, but also for his opposition to the National Insurance Act. This attribution flew in the face of the fact that 60.3% of the electorate voted for candidates who supported Irish Home Rule. Despite the miners union fielding a Labour Party candidate, it appeared as if the majority of miners decided to vote Liberal. It also indicated that regardless of any local situation, voters were more likely to be influenced by the national situation. The election result confirmed the weakness of the Labour Party as an electoral force when challenged by a Liberal candidate. The result was a humiliation for the Labour Party and a lesson to the Derbyshire Miners Association about party affiliation.


1914 North East Derbyshire by-election, Aftermath
A General Election was due to take place by the end of 1915. By the autumn of 1914, the following candidates had been adopted to contest that election.


1914 North East Derbyshire by-election, Aftermath
Due to the outbreak of war, the election never took place. Bowden found himself estranged from the North East Derbyshire Unionist Association, going so far as to issue libel proceedings against the association's vice-chairman. He continued as the MP, but when he faced re-election in 1918 he was denied endorsement from his party leader Bonar Law and the Coalition Government which contributed to his defeat. The local Liberals replaced Houfton as their candidate and Labour replaced Martin.


1914 North East Derbyshire by-election, Aftermath
The Derbyshire Miners Association continued to find itself at odds with the Miners Federation of Great Britain over matters other than candidate selection and party allegiance. During the General Strike of 1926, the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire miners brokered a deal with the local colliery owners, led by Houfton. However, the deal was opposed by the MFGB which resulted in a formal split in the local miners unions that lasted into the 1930s.

1914 North West Durham by-election, Vacancy
Llewellyn Atherley-Jones, the Liberal MP for North West Durham resigned his seat. He was appointed a Judge of the City of London Court, which meant he had to halt his political career. He had been the local MP since the constituency was created in 1885. He had started his legal career as the Barrister for the Miners' National Union, giving him a particular affinity with the large number of miners living in the constituency.

1914 North West Durham by-election, Campaign
The Liberal candidate Aneurin Williams launched his campaign at a public meeting in Consett on 5 January 1914, at which he was supported by his brother, the Liberal MP for Middlesbrough, Penry Williams. On 6 January 1914, Williams spoke at the Co-operative Hall, Stanley sharing a platform with Mr. Straughan. On 9 January 1914 Williams spoke at a public meeting in Quebec alongside the Rev. Thomas Dale of Waterhouses, who said the Liberal party in the division had secured a very worthy candidate.


1914 North West Durham by-election, Campaign
On 20 January 1914, the Liberal candidate, Aneurin Williams declared that he advocated Irish Home Rule, religious equality in Wales, the abolition of Plural voting, further reform of the House of Lords, land and housing reform and popular control over licences. Other issues to feature in his campaign included a defence of National Insurance and improvements to the conditions of agricultural labourers.


1914 North West Durham by-election, Campaign
About 2,000 Irishmen were electors in the constituency. With the Liberal Government currently steering through parliament, the 3rd Irish Home Rule Bill, Home Rule was the main issue of the by-election. The Labour candidate as well as the Liberal candidate agreed with the Liberal Government's policy. The Unionist candidate was left to defend the actions of the likes of Sir Edward Carson who called on Ulster Unionists to resist the British Government "by any means".


1914 North West Durham by-election, Campaign
The issue of Women's suffrage also featured in the campaign. A combination of the Unionist Party, the Irish Nationalists and a minority of Liberals had defeated the measure earlier in the parliament. The Liberal candidate, Aneurin Williams was a vocal supporter of giving women the vote while his Unionist opponent Hardicker was an opponent. Despite this, the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies chose to enter the campaign in support of the Labour Party candidate, greatly increasing the chances of victory for the anti-suffrage Unionist candidate. It was announced on 15 January 1914 that the Militant Women's Social and Political Union had established campaign headquarters in Consett to also campaign in support of the Labour candidate.


1914 North West Durham by-election, Campaign
The influential Durham Miners' Association had initially withheld their official support from the Labour Party candidate, but their executive committee passed a motion calling on all miners to support the Socialist candidate. Although there was a sizeable mining community in the constituency, the Association had not pressed to have their own candidate. The fact that the Labour Party candidate was neither local nor a miner, meant he had limited appeal to their members.


1914 North West Durham by-election, Campaign
At this time the Durham Miners were fairly evenly split between those like their President William House, who supported the Labour Party and those like their General Secretary John Wilson who supported the Liberal Party. The pro-Labour Party element of the Union were still reeling from the 1913 Houghton-le-Spring by-election when House stood as a DMA endorsed Labour Party candidate and came third, while miners lodges across the constituency supported the Liberal, who won despite not being a miner. However, that did not stop individual miners leaders taking different sides in the campaign. On 20 January, the Liberal Aneurin Williams spoke at the Council School, Tanfield Lea. He shared the platform with J. J. Gray, a checkweigher at the Tanfield Lea Colliery. On 21 January 1914 Williams spoke at the Miners' Hall, South Moor in front of an audience of about 300.

The Liberal and Labour candidates argued over who was the more genuine representative of the workers. The Labour campaign focused on a handful of English trade unionists who had been deported from South Africa for trying to organise a General Strike. The Times reported that this news could result in 500 Liberal voters switching to the Labour Party candidate.

On 29 January 1914, the eve of poll, Williams received a telegram of support from David Lloyd George in which he stated "Looking forward to the pleasure of welcoming you back as a member of the House Commons. Your practical acquaintance with social problems, especially housing, will be most valued."


1914 North West Durham by-election, Result
The result was declared on Saturday afternoon, 31 January at Lanchester in front of a large crowd. Williams held the seat for the Liberals. The Unionist vote share was also down on December 1910;


1914 North West Durham by-election, Result
Although the Liberal majority had been massively reduced, they had every reason to be satisfied as the result was seen as an endorsement of the government's Irish policies, achieving a majority of 8,703 when the two pro-Home Rule candidates votes were combined. Following the announcement of the result, cheering Liberal supporters carried Williams shoulder high to his car from where he started a tour of the constituency to thank the voters.


1914 North West Durham by-election, Result
He made a statement to the press in which he said that he regarded the result as a "triumph for the principals of radical social reform as against Tariff Reform." The Unionist candidate Hardicker was forced to admit that the electorate had demonstrated its approval of the Liberal Government. The Socialist candidate, Stuart-Bunning stated that he would only return to fight the seat again if the executive of the Postal Federation were prepared to fund his campaign.


1914 North West Durham by-election, Aftermath
A General Election was due to take place by the end of 1915. By the autumn of 1914, the following candidates had been adopted to contest that election.

1914 Open Championship
The 1914 Open Championship was the 54th Open Championship, held 18–19 June at Prestwick Golf Club in Prestwick, South Ayrshire, Scotland. Harry Vardon won a record sixth Open Championship title, three strokes ahead of runner-up J.H. Taylor, the defending champion. Entering the championship, Vardon, Taylor, and James Braid had five Open wins each. This was the sixteenth and final Open title for these three, the Great Triumvirate. Due to World War I, it was the last Open for six years; the next was in 1920.


1914 Open Championship
Qualification took place the week before on 11−12 June at Troon, with 18 holes on the Old Course and 18 holes on Troon municipal number 2, and exactly 100 players qualified. Taylor and Ted Ray, winners of the last two Opens, led the field on 150 and 96 players at 163 or better advanced. The thirteen at 164 played an additional 18 holes at Prestwick the next day to determine the final four places; scores of 79 and better qualified.


1914 Open Championship
After the first two rounds on Thursday, Vardon led at 150, by one shot ahead of a relatively unknown James Ockenden from West Drayton Golf Club. Taylor was a shot back in third at 152. One shot back after an opening 74, Braid's 82 in the afternoon dropped him into a tie for ninth.


1914 Open Championship
Vardon and Taylor were paired together on Friday and, after Ockenden had a disappointing 83, they were clear leaders after the morning's third round. Taylor led on 226 with Vardon two back; amateur James Jenkins was third on 232 and three were tied at 233.


1914 Open Championship
With the two leaders playing together, huge crowds followed in the final round that afternoon. Taylor extended his lead to three at the first hole, but at the third, he was distracted by a photographer and dropped a stroke to Vardon. The championship was largely decided at the fourth hole, where Taylor found the water and took seven to Vardon's four, which changed the lead. Taylor dropped more strokes to Vardon at the 5th, 8th, 10th, and 11th holes and Vardon led by five. Taylor recovered somewhat and shot 83, but Vardon won by three shots at 78 for 306. Phil Gaudin had the best score in the final round at 74.


1914 Open Championship
This was the penultimate Open at Prestwick, which hosted 24, including the first twelve; the last was eleven years later in 1925.

1914 Ottoman census
The 1914 Ottoman census was collected and published as the Memalik-i Osmaniyyenin 1330 Senesi Nütus Istatistiki. These statistics were prepared by using the figures from the 1905–06 census of the Ottoman Empire and reflecting births and deaths registered in six years from last. The register states that birth and mortality rate used on "nomads" such as the nomadic Nestorians.


1914 Ottoman census
The 1914 census list reflected major changes in the territorial boundaries and administrative division of the Ottoman state. The population statistics and 1914 Ottoman general election were major population sources. The empire's total population was provided as 18,520,015. The grand total for 1914 showed a "net gain" of 1,131,454 from the 1905-06 Ottoman census survey. The data reflects the loss of territory and population in Europe due to Balkan Wars, as the total net gain figure would be 3,496,068.


1914 Ottoman census
The census underestimated non-Muslim populations. For example, in Diyarbekir the Armenian population was reported at 73,226 in the 1914 Ottoman census, but in September 1915 Mehmed Reshid announced that he had deported 120,000 Armenians from the province.


1914 Ottoman census, Census data
As a result of the substantial territorial losses in Europe suffered during the Balkan wars, the total population of the empire fell to 18,520,016, of whom an even larger percentage than before, 15,044,846, was counted as Muslim, with 1,729,738 as Greek Orthodox, 1,161,169 as Armenian Gregorian, 187,073 as Jewish, 62,468 as Greek Catholic, 68,838 as Armenian Catholic, and 65,844 as Protestant. No separate figures were given for Franks.

The capital, Constantinople (Istanbul) was an important location due to expulsions from Balkan Wars. According to the 1914 census, its population increased slightly, to 909,978, excluding Franks, with 560,434 Muslims, 205,375 Greek Orthodox, 72,963 Armenian Gregorian, 52,126 Jews, 387 Greek Catholics, 9,918 Armenian Catholics, 1,213 Protestants, and 2,905 Latins.


1914 Ottoman general election
General elections were held in the Ottoman Empire in 1914. The Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) was the only party to contest the elections, and the newly elected Chamber of Deputies convened for the first time in May.


1914 Ottoman general election, Background
Following Ottoman military failures in the First Balkan War, Grand Vizier Kâmil Pasha was overthrown by a CUP-led coup in January 1913. Kâmil Pasha was hostile to the CUP, and had been determined to use his appointment to destroy the party.


1914 Ottoman general election, Background
After the coup the CUP was able to bring the cabinet under its control. Following the assassination of the new Grand Vizier Mahmud Shevket Pasha in June, the CUP was able to crush its political rival, the Liberal Entente, whose supporters had been involved in the assassination. The Entente was also weakened as the Empire lost territory in the Balkans, where many of its Christian supporters were based. The CUP made efforts to win support in the Arab provinces by making conciliatory gestures to Arab leaders, which also weakened Arab support for the Entente and enabled the CUP to call elections with unionists holding the upper hand.


1914 Ottoman general election, Conduct
Electoral fraud and coercion led to protests in several parts of the Empire. In Hama 27 of the 48 secondary voters signed a petition concerning the election in Homs. When Hama was due to vote, two-thirds of the voters refused to report to the polling station in protest at the conduct of the Homs election. Similar boycotts occurred in Acre due to irregularities in Safed and Tiberias.


1914 Ottoman jihad proclamation
On 12 November 1914, Ottoman Sultan Mehmed V proclaimed holy war against the Entente powers and appealed for support from Muslims in Entente-controlled countries. Two days later, the Shaykh-ul-Islam confirmed the proclamation by issuing a fatwa to the same effect.

The franchise took a downturn in 1914. The heavily favored Athletics lost the 1914 World Series to the "Miracle" Boston Braves in a four-game sweep. Miracles often have two sides, and for a few years this "miracle" wrought disaster on the A's. Mack traded, sold or released most of the team's star players soon after, and the team fell into a lengthy slump.

1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team
The 1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team was an American football team that represented the University of Pittsburgh as an independent during the 1914 college football season. In its second season under head coach Joseph Duff, the team compiled an 8–1 record and outscored all opponents by a total of 207 to 38.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
"The football team of 1913 brought the University from a position of relative unimportance among the colleges to a place on a level with the ten or twelve leaders in the sport.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
This success is to be attributed to various causes, but the underlying reasons are found in the inauguration of the new coaching policy under Duff and Harlan, the acquisition of a number of new men who raised the standard of play, the hard course of training undergone in the football camp at Windber during the month of September and the erection of a permanent training house where the proper care and supervision might be given the members of the team."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
Coach Joseph Duff, 1911 Princeton graduate, with only one season of assistant coaching experience led the 1913 University of Pittsburgh eleven to a 6-2-1 record. A. R. Hamilton summed it up best in The Pitt Weekly season recap:


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
"The season's record stands as a gratifying monument to Joe Duff's initial efforts as a coach. He asked a free rein and agreed to shoulder all the blame in case the outcome of the season was unsatisfactory. On the same platform he is entitled to all the credit. His job was a hard one. He came on the heels of the most disastrous football season Pitt has ever known.... Our squad was dangerously small in numbers and was short of experienced men. We had only two three-year men and the big proportion of the balance were freshmen.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
Duff was new to the men and they were new to him...Everybody had to feel his way the first few days except Duff... He knew exactly what he had to accomplish and he lost no time heading in that direction. So determinedly had he impressed himself on the entire situation, once he had taken hold, that before a week was up all hands were driving along toward a common goal."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
Accordingly, the December 12 edition of The Pitt Weekly reported:  "Because of his brilliant work in turning out a winning team this past season Joe Duff, former Princeton player, was re-elected coach of the University football eleven for next year at a meeting of the General Athletic Committee." Edwin H. W. "Nubs" Harlan was retained as assistant coach by Coach Duff.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
Guard Wayne "Red" Smith was elected captain for the 1914 season by his teammates at the 1913 team banquet. The Pitt Weekly praised: "Red has been one of the standbys in the line ever since he matriculated three years ago."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
Graduate Manager Davis had the 1914 schedule ready by March 18. The first game was considered a "hard" contest with Cornell, "where the (Pitt) men will be fresh from their training period in the mountains." Next a supposed easy game with Westminster was followed by another road game at Navy. The remaining games on the schedule were played at Forbes field. The Pitt Weekly stated: "Altogether this is the best arranged schedule  that has ever appeared for our varsity. Not only from the players' standpoint but also in a financial way this arrangement should be very satisfactory." Mr. Davis appointed Alan K. Collingwood (Class of 1916, School of Economics) student football manager for the 1914 season.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
On September 2, forty-four prospects assembled at Union Station for the trip to Johnstown, followed by a car ride to Camp Hamilton at Windber, PA for three weeks of preseason drills. Coach Duff welcomed fourteen returning letter men and plenty of promising recruits. The Pittsburgh Daily Post noted one in particular:


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
"Another track star who will enter the University this fall is J. B. Sutherland, of Oberlin Preparatory School... His specialties are the discus and the shot, he having a record of better than 125 feet in the former event and 40 feet in the shot. The University discus record is six feet short of Sutherland's record. He will try for the football team this fall also, as a lineman, although he has had little gridiron experience. It is believed that he will eventually develop into a great football player, as he has weight speed and courage."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Preseason
During this camp session, Coach Duff's most significant personnel adjustment was moving Robert Peck from fullback to center, where he would become a three time All-American. Camp disbanded on September 24 and the squad headed to Ithaca to take on the Big Red of Cornell.

1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, at Cornell
To kick-off the 1914 season, the Pitt team traveled to Ithaca, NY to take on the Big Red of Cornell on Saturday, September 26. Cornell was led by third year coach Albert Sharpe and came into this game with a 1-0 record, having beaten Ursinus 28-0 on September 23. Cornell would finish the season with an 8-2 record. This would be the last football game played between these two schools. Pitt has a 2-4 all-time record against the Big Red.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, at Cornell
The Pittsburgh Press reported: "Displaying at times a mid-season form that dazzled her opponents and taking advantage of every Cornell misplay, the University of Pittsburgh football eleven duplicated its performance of one year ago and sent Cornell down to defeat here this afternoon by a score of 9-3....the visiting team clearly outclassed the Cornell machine in all-round football, and pulled away with another victory that was even more unexpected than that of last season."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, at Cornell
Pitt received the opening kick-off and fullback Edward Hanley fumbled on first down and Cornell recovered on  the Pitt  32-yard line. The Cornell offensive backs "Barrett and Taber took turns hammering the Pitt line until in less time than it takes to tell, Cornell had the ball on the visitor's 10-yard line." "After Taber was thrown for a loss.... Barrett dropped back from the ten- yard line and booted the ball between the uprights." Cornell led 3-0 after three minutes of play. Pitt kicked off and forced the Big Red to punt.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, at Cornell
Guy Williamson received the ball on his 30-yard line. "Running like the wind, dodging, sidestepping, and stiff-arming, the Pitt quarterback worked his way down the field behind an interference that was really remarkable. The last guardian of the Cornell goal was bowled over by an avalanche of blue-and-gold-stockinged athletes." Pitt led 6-3 as Andy Hastings missed the point after.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, at Cornell
The second and third quarters were scoreless as both teams possessions see-sawed between the thirty yard lines. "Seven Cornell men were put out of the running before the final whistle blew... It was the power and aggressiveness of the Pitt interference that put so many of the local players hors de combat." In each quarter Pitt advanced the ball inside the Cornell 20-yard line. A fumble thwarted the second quarter drive. In the third period Pitt Captain Smith picked up a Taber fumble and raced 50-yards to the end zone. "After considerable discussion, the ball was brought back and the Ithacans were penalized ten yards for grounding the pass behind the line of scrimmage." The Pitt defense held and the offense then advanced the ball to the 10-yard line of Cornell and turned it over on downs.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, at Cornell
Pitt extended its lead to 9-3 with another Hastings field goal early in the fourth quarter. "Then Cornell pulled together and by a series of viscous assaults, carried the ball from Cornell's 25-yard line to the visitors' one yard line...Cornell was finally halted by the desperate resistance of the Pitt line." "For the second consecutive year, the Pitt football team brought joy to the hearts of its followers and gloom to the Cornell rooters by winning a hard earned victory over the Ithacans."

The Pitt lineup for the game against Cornell was H. Clifford Carlson (left end), Claude E. Thornhill (left tackle), Wayne Smith (left guard), Bob Peck (center), Charles Reese (right guard), James Jones (right tackle), James P. Herron (right end), Guy Williamson (quarterback), Andy Hastings (left halfback), William Miller (right halfback), and Edward Hanley (fullback).

1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Westminster
For week two of the 1914 season, the Titans of Westminster College from New Wilmington, PA arrived in Pittsburgh to try to win their first game ever against the Pitt eleven. The previous week the Titans lost to a strong State College team 13-0.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Westminster
The Pittsburgh Daily Post warned "Coach Duff of Pitt is preparing for a very strenuous clash with Westminster College tomorrow. Pitt has not been taking things easy this week and every effort has been made to preclude any feeling of overconfidence"


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Westminster
The Pitt Weekly countered: "Pitt's rooters met with a large degree of disappointment last Saturday, when Westminster held the varsity to a 21-10 score in a raggedly played game... The game was the opening event of Pitt's home season, and the disappointment was all the more keen because of the fact that Pitt men were inclined to be overconfident of the result."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Westminster
Pitt received the opening kick-off and on second down halfback William Miller fumbled on the Pitt twelve yard line. Westminster gained nothing on first and second down. On third down quarterback "Buckley then dropped back to the 30-yard line and sent the ball sailing through the goal posts for a placement tally." Westminster led 3-0. The Pitt offense worked the ball to midfield and fumbled again. Westminster punted and the Pitt offense advanced the ball back to midfield. "(Guy) Williamson made a spectacular run to the 15-yard line. (Charles) Hastings was sent through tackle for a touchdown. He also kicked goal." Pitt led 7-3 at the end of the first quarter.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Westminster
Early in the second quarter, "(Guy) Williamson punted to Buckley on Westminster's 10-yard line. Buckley fumbled the ball and it bounced into (James) DeHart's hands and he ran for a touchdown. Hastings kicked goal." Pitt led 14-3.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Westminster
In the third quarter, Williamson "shot another forward pass to "Stevie" Dillon, who had been sent into the game, and the old war horse ran 25-yards for a touchdown. Williamson kicked goal, making the score 21-3." Westminster scored their touchdown after Stewart blocked a Williamson punt that was recovered on the Pitt 3-yard line. On third down fullback McLaughrey plunged into the end zone for the score. Buckley kicked goal. The fourth quarter was scoreless and the game ended 21-10.

1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
For the third year in a row the Pitt contingent traveled to Annapolis, MD to battle the Midshipmen of Navy. Coach Douglas Legate Howard was in his fourth year and led the team to a  6-3 record. The Midshipmen came into the Pitt game having beaten Georgetown 13-0 the previous week.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
"Fighting with their characteristic "last ditch" spirit, the Blue and Gold won a victory over the powerful Navy team, last Saturday, at Annapolis by a score of 13-6. The result was in doubt from the first whistle to the last, and only the sturdiest sort of a fight enabled the Varsity to hold their lead to the end."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
"Fulfilling expectations, the Navy-Pittsburgh University football game here today developed into one of the hottest contests seen on a local gridiron for a long time, and the lads from the Smoky City emerged from the fray victors, 13-6.... Last season, with a team that showed every sign of a coming aggregation, they played the Middies to a scoreless tie in the opening game for Uncle Sam's sea-fighters, and having suffered only slight losses by graduation they have assembled this year a football machine that is calculated to give any of the big teams a stiff rub. Conquerors of Cornell last Saturday, they invaded the Middies lair with every confidence in their ability and they found that it was not by any means displaced. Playing much open football, with a varied attack and a stubborn defense, the Pennsylvanians were able to master every situation of the game."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
Near the end of the first quarter, Pitt secured possession on Navy's 45-yard line. "On first down Miller sprinted around end for 20 yards before he was thrown." Another first down advanced the ball to the 15-yard line. "Williamson passed to Herron for a 12-yard gain landing the ball on the Middies 3-yard line." On second down "Williamson fell across the line between tackle and guard." Hastings kicked the goal and Pitt led 7-0.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
Early in the second quarter, the Navy offense advanced the ball to the Pitt 3-yard line but turned it over on downs. A few plays later Pitt quarterback Guy Williamson hurt his leg trying to scamper around the Navy end. Roy Heil replaced him for the remainder of the first half. Pitt led at halftime 7-0.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
At the start of the third quarter Navy punted to Pitt. "Williamson, (back in the game) charging in on Blodgett's punt, juggled the ball and Overesch recovered for Navy on the visitor's 45-yard line." "Navy carried the ball to Pittsburgh's 30-yard mark. Here the visitors braced and it was at this juncture that Mitchell essayed a beautiful forward pass to Overesch. The Navy Captain was on a dead run, and turning, caught the fast sailing pigskin under his left arm. He was directly in front of the goal line and almost instantaneously was brought to earth.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
In the fall he went across the mark." The goal after failed and Pitt led 7-6. DeHart replaced a limping Williamson. After a Pitt punt, Navy lined up to punt it back. "The whole Pitt line charged through and blocked Blodgett's attempted punt on Navy's first play and Peck taking the ball from the air cleared the crowd and registered Pitt's second touchdown." Hastings missed the goal after and Pitt led 13-6.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
"Throughout the fourth and last period Navy made tremendous but futile efforts to crush Pitt's defense, finally advancing the ball to the Varsity's 12-yard line. Here the line held, and Vail's pass to Overesch was intercepted by Miller." Pitt beat the Midshipmen 13-6 and were 3-0 on the season.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Navy
The Pitt lineup for the game against Navy was H.

The game was played in 12-minute quarters.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
On October 17, Pop Warner, in his thirteenth and last season as the  Carlisle coach, brought his team to Pittsburgh for the opening game at Forbes Field. The Indians sported a 3-2 record this season, having won their first three and losing the last two. To compound matters, "on the eve of one of the hardest games on the schedule Carlisle Captain Busch, right guard, was forced to resign for the good of the team. The drastic action was taken at the suggestion of the coaches. The injuries suffered recently and the change in the team will naturally cause a lack of teamwork in the game Saturday."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
Pitt was healthy except for Guy Williamson at quarterback. He was replaced by James DeHart and Roy Heil.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
The Pitt Weekly was again subdued in their praise: "The expected happened last Saturday in Pitt's victory over the Indians. The score of 10-3 is some what disappointing to those Pitt men who had anticipated victory by a wider margin; but the varsity was evidently under wraps, and the redskins failure to apply harder pressure kept the Blue and Gold from working too hard."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
The Carlisle Evening Herald was blunt: "The University of Pittsburgh football team defeated the Carlisle Indians Saturday by a score of 10-3 in a game that was marked by mediocre play on the part of both teams."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
Florent Gibson of The Pittsburgh Sunday Post reported: "Beating the Carlisle Indians is a solemn duty which the blue-clad gridders of Old Pitt owe their Alma Mater; furthermore it's become a habit, and one might say it's reprehensible only in that it sends a saddened bunch of aborigines back to that dear Carlisle. Last year Pitt beat the Indians by two touchdowns to one, thus establishing a precedent, for it was the first time a redskin advance had been rolled back by a Pitt eleven. But yesterday the Pittites won again, thus turning a precedent into a well-defined habit. The score was 10-3. Now if Pitt wins next year, beating the Indians will have become a traditional custom, and the spectators no longer will fare forth to Forbes Field to see Pitt ripped up the back by the Original Inhabitants."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
Pitt received the opening kick-off and advanced the ball to midfield where the Carlisle defense forced a punt. Andy Hastings punted into the end zone and Carlisle had first down on the 20-yard line. Halfback Broker fumbled on first down and Leo Collins recovered for Pitt. On fourth down, "Hastings dropped the ball over from the 25-yard line." Pitt led 3-0.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
Early in the second quarter, "the Indians were knocking at the Pitt goal line. Fullback Pete Calacmade a perfect peg of 25-yards to F. Broker, who was standing on the very goal line. The Indian halfback gobbled it up and fell over the line to be smothered under an avalanche of blue jerseys. It was a sure-nuff touchdown, only some eagle-eyed official had diagnosed a case of holding in the Carlisle line as the Zeppelin was launched, and the touchdown was disallowed." The Pitt defense stiffened and regained possession. Whitey Miller fumbled and Carlisle recovered on Pitt's 32-yard line.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
Pitt's defense held and Pete Calac missed a 35-yard field goal. Pitt had possession on their 20-yard line. DeHart, Miller and Collins rushed the ball downfield to the Carlisle 27-yard line. "Here DeHart took the ball and skirted the end behind good interference. Dodging tackler after tackler, finally worming out of the grasp of Calac, "Jimmy" shot over the redskins' goal for a touchdown, assuring Pitt of its second consecutive victory over the Carlisle aggregation." Pitt led 10-0 at halftime.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Carlisle
"The third quarter was almost featureless being occupied by advances and retreats by both teams." Near the end of the final period, Carlisle gained possession at midfield. Calac and Pratt advanced the ball to the Pitt 20-yard line. The Pitt defense held and Calac was successful on a 30-yard field goal to close the scoring. "Pitt had possession on Carlisle's 13-yard line when the whistle blew ending the combat."

The Pitt lineup for the game against Carlisle was H. Clifford Carlson (left end), John Sutherland (left tackle), Wayne Smith (left guard), Bob Peck (center), Chuck Reese (right guard), Carl Hockensmith (right tackle), James Herron (right end), James DeHart (quarterback), Andy Hastings (left halfback), Whitey Miller (right halfback), and Leo Collins (fullback).

The game was played in 15-minute quarters.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
On October 24 "with a record of four victories and no defeats, Pitt clashed with the representatives of Georgetown University, in the first game played between these two institutions since 1910, when "Tex” Richards' team triumphed over the Washingtonians by a count of 17-0." The Blue and Gray came into Pittsburgh 0-2-1 under first year coach Albert Exendine and would finish the season with a 2-4-2 record.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
"The score of 21-0, in the football game between the University of Pittsburgh and Georgetown University, here today, does not indicate the difference in the strength or ability of these teams. The visitors gave Pitt the biggest scare of the season, especially in the second period of play, when they outplayed their heavier opponents, and caused Coach Duff to send in reinforcements at every turn."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
Nor was Charles R. Cox, Georgetown's Graduate Manager of Athletics:


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
"Georgetown was again unfortunate in today's game. A fumble, an intercepted forward pass, and a block kick resulted in three touchdowns for Pittsburgh, the only scores of the game. In three periods Georgetown clearly outplayed the heavy Pitt team, but breaks in the game were against us. Three times Georgetown had the ball inside the ten-yard line, only to lose it on fumbles. I do not want to detract from Pitt's victory, for they scored the most points and won the game, but each score was made on a long run and cannot be considered earned."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
"The score can not be accepted as a criterion as to the relative strength of the two teams on the field yesterday. The game abounded in possibilities for scoring, especially for Georgetown, but the visiting team had an attack which failed to penetrate the Pitt defense when the chances were presented. Except for staving off the Georgetown assaults, the Pitt line was practically useless. On the offense it was very weak and through its inability to help perform its functions the ball was kept in the Pitt territory the greater part of the while."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
Pitt received the kick-off and after making a first down punted to Georgetown. On second down Georgetown halfback Kelly fumbled and Andy Hastings "nailed the elusive pigskin and executed a clever run of some 45-yards, not stopping until he touched the ball down directly behind the goal posts. Then just to show he was versatile, he kicked the goal from touchdown and Pitt was in the lead by the score of 7-0." Georgetown spent most of the quarter in Pitt territory and missed two field goals. Pitt countered with one drive and Hastings' field goal was blocked. The Blue and Gray had the ball on the Pitt 14-yard line at the end of the first period. "The first play of the second quarter, a forward pass from Weiser, resulted in transferring the ball to Pitt. The rest of the half was uneventful."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
Late in the third quarter, Pitt blocked a punt and Cliff Morrow recovered the ball at midfield. "On the first play after this, Heil was sent through right tackle and got away for a run of 47-yards for the second touchdown of the game. Fry stepped back and sent the ball between the post for the seventh point, making the score Pitt 14, Georgetown 0."


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
"The final quarter was marked by Hastings' beautiful try for a field goal from the Georgetown 45-yard line, the attempt failing only by inches. Georgetown brought the ball out to the 20-yard line and started play, making a first down in quick time. On  the next play, Foley's pass went straight into Miller's hands, and "Foxy" rambled over the line for a touchdown, Fry kicking goal." Pitt won 21-0.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
"The newspapers of Pittsburgh have severely criticized the Pitt football team. As students we resent these slanders. We have one of the best elevens in the history of the University. Without a single set-back we have defeated five teams. Look at them: Cornell, Westminster, Navy, Carlisle, Georgetown. The scores have been decisive. Despite this, the whole football organization is criticized on technicalities of form and method. Beside these criticisms are words of wonder and praise at the work of W. & J. and Penn State.


1914 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Game summaries, Georgetown
The worst of this condition is that the unfavorable words of our critics here in this city are creeping under the skin of the student body like a slow poison, leaving a feeling of apathy and sapping the spirit of confidence. Our team has been criticized. That is slander. Our school spirit has been criticized. This is truth... Our cheering is wretched, field parades weak, and post-victory demonstrations entirely lacking...Let's get things moving... It can be done. Leave the playing to Coach Duff and the boys and lets take the cheering in our own hands."

On Halloween, coach S. W. Harrington brought his Dickinson Red and White to Pittsburgh for the second and last time to attempt to best the unbeaten Pitt eleven.

Pitt gave the Red and White no treats but played plenty of tricks as they "tried hard to equal W. & J. 's score against Dickinson, but fell short one touchdown, the score being 96 to 0. The local boys were like babies in the hands of the Pitt huskies, and went down like ten-pins before the rushes of Hastings, Hanley, and Dillon, while the end runs of Heil and Fry were something bewildering to the Dickinson defense."

The Pitt Weekly reported: "A small but delighted crowd of fans last Saturday saw Dickinson crushed under the Pitt avalanche by the smothering score of 96-0. In spite of the game resistance of the visitors, they never once endangered the Panther goal, and only twice succeeded in making a first down."
