ThAnkSgiVinR-Day struggle In the interest
shown and in the crowds that gathered
as to-day's did. 1t was. 10 begin with.
an ideal football day. The sun came
out In warmth and splendor. The field
was beautiful stretch OF ground. with
It's whitewashed lines glistening in tho
sunlight. The crowd that grew In extent
TIL II approached 1900 In numbers began
to flow In early. on the biuff surrounding
the field there were fully 5000 or more, and
on every housetop was black mass OF
humanity.
The coilege-men were everywhere in evi.
dence. Pennsylvania turned out strong.
Some one had said that nearly half the
college would be there. and no was not
far astray in his language. They occupied
two Of the bieachers. and their yells went
further than the annexed district.
A GREAT HOWL.
No such howl had ever before gone
up from a football field when Knipe
made touchdown for Pennsylvania in
the second half. The crowd went wild.
and the stands were one big sheet of red
and blue. That part OF the crowd which
at the beginning of the game had no par
ticular favorite lent It's sympathy TO the
Quakers after the grand fight they made,
and all Joined in one wild cry. Penn
sylvania had scored. IN Brooke, Osgood,
and knipe she presented n trio hard 10
equal. The punting OF Brooke was ex-
cellent and he was never found wanting.
The hard. honest. work OF Osgood was
superb. Knipe carried off the honors al
having scored the only touchdown for
Pennsylvania.
KNIPE'S PERFORMANCE.
The ball had been forced with startling
rapidty down into Yale's territory after
the latter had made a touchdown In the
second half. IL was within the ten-yard
line when the ball was passed to Knipe,
and ne tried through the centre. He
found u solid wall there, but discovered
an opening at the right. where Muschey
should have been. He ran through It
and scored.
For Yale Butterworth won by supreme
playing in the latter part Of the game.
He bucked at Pennsylvania centre like
"a torpedo. and seldom failed to make a
gain. At punting he was not so success
full as Brooke. Thorne gladdened the
hearts Of the rooters for the blue by his
exhibition of form. Hinkey was pounded
most numerically. The Pennsylvania
people consider him a rough player and
on many occasions he was the recipient
OF some hard smuggling. At one time Cap
was playing a dirty game" and those in
the vicinity thought fight would be pre-.
cipitated. Cooler heads prevented It,
however.
TROUBLE.
Billy Rhodes, Yale's famous tackler OF
two years ago, got into trouble during
the game. He was commenting on "the
cowardly act" of the Pennsylvania men
when some one in the crowd hit him a
singing blow in the mouth. He was
knocked down and bIed profusely. Rhodes
then wanted to fight somebody, but nc
one was willing to take the responsibility
of the blow.
1t was by the smallest chance that Yale
scored I'm the first half. Only a few min.
utes before time was called did they
score. Butterworth then commenced his
great work. He found Meckey and
Woodruff weak. and went through them
for several gains in rapid succession.
