ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.I
NEW YORK, Nov. 12-Whatever hopes
Pennsylvania had of winning the inter-
collegiate championship were effectually
smothered this evening at Manhattan field
before the eyes of $4,000 spectators The
red and blue kickers faced the Yale giants
and met Waterloo. Mccormick and his
dashing PLAYERS rushed at the conquerors of
the Tigers in the first half and scored
twenty-five points before the PhiIadel-
phians seemed to be aware that the game
was in progress Yale broke through the
supposedly impregnsble center of the Penn
sylvanians for large successive gains.
They got around on the ends for sstonish-
inClv long runs assisted by magnificent in
reference on the part of Mccormick,
Winter, Wallis ard Hinkey, and Butter
worth had a shade the best of the punting.
The play of the first half was overwhelm
inglv in Yale's favor The only wav in
which Pennsylvania gained ground was by
punting, but they were unable to hold the
ball anywhere near the Yale line. About
the only serious attempt on the part of the
Qua6ers to score in the half was drop
kick by Thayer from the 25-yard line, which
tailed. The Philadelphia rushers found the
Yale line to be stone wall, and the tack
ling of Mccormick, Winter, Wallis and
Hinkey discouraged running on the part of
the Quakers.
Eaffled at Every Point.
They were baffied at every point, and
were in complete disorder at the close of
the half; in fact, Yale outplayed the Penn
sylyanians so greatly that the game ceased
to be interesting. In the second halt Yale
made one more touchdown and goal, but
the blue legs contented themselves with
working to prevent the Quakers scoring.
The big fellows from Philadelphia seemed
TO brace up a trihe in the second half, and
came near scoring as the game was drawing
20 a close. They got the ball down to Yale's
i;ve-yard line, and another rush ought to
have resulted in touchdown, but the Yale
line massed, prevented any gain, and the
ball went to the blue on downs 1t was
then kicked to the center, and was about
ten yards into Yale territory when the time
Of the half ended
Alter having lost all chance of making a
creditable exhibition they braced up and
EhOwed that when not laboring under q
stress of fright they can play champion
ship game. The ease with which Pennsyl-
vanis carried the ball along in the second
nalf puts their work OF the first half in
peculiar contrast
The Pennsylvanians were good only at the
rush line. Yale ran all around them, plav- |
ing as usual with brains as well as with |
arms and feet, and proving as usual invin-
chile. The great feature of the Yale game |
Was the running of her half backs, the |
Bliss boys, who carried the ball wherever |
they wanted all over the field. McCrea, a |
Pit,sburger, played on the Yale team and |
another Pittsburg boy, Messler, was a SUBJ |
stitute.
