Gy telegraph 80 the Dispatch)
PHILADELPHIA, PA. November A.
On Mannheim field, in the presence OF 20
900 people, Princeton this afternoon scored
revenge on Pennsylvania for the iatters
defeat OF a year ago. 1t was unques-
tionably the hardest-fought battle that
has ever taken place In this city, and
while the Tigers prevented Pennsylvania
from scoring. they were only able TO Sc
cure a single touchdown.
First half-Princeton. 4; pennsylvania,
o. Second half-Princeton, 0; Pennsyl-
vania. 0. Referee, Paul Dashiell, of Lee
high. Umpire, DIT. Brooks. of Harvard.
To sum up It may be said that Penn
sylvanla was beatpn fairly, Princeton
playing the stronger game.
Considering the condition of the ground
a Ine-bucking game was the only one
practical Pennsylvania was undoubtedly
handicapped by the slippery field, her
sprinters, who were relied upon for most
OF the work, being unable 10 do effective
running. Her tackles were weak, and
her Interference was poor, Osgood' who
made several fine runs practically do
ing his own interfering. on the other
hand, Princeton's interference, In which
King took the lead every time, was
very good.
Even Heffeifnger might envy the ex-
hibition Of football which big Wheeler
gave, particularly in his blocking OF
knip and knip, which gave Princeton her
touchdown.
Osgood did by far the most brilliant
playing for Pennsylvania, both In tack
ling and running with the ball Penn
syIvania's ends. which were looked upon
as weak. showed up surprisingly strong.
The play of Simmons Yves certainly
equal to that OF Captain Trenchard.
Although Princeton failed TO score In
the second half, it could be seen that
she played a defensive game talmost
entirely only aiming to make gains
when there seemed no danger OF losing
the bali.
