PHILADELPHIA, Nov 30-Twenty thou
| sand people saw Pennsylvania defeat Har-
! ward on the local college grounds yester-
! day. Il was the last game of the season
! for the two teams and the first big
! Thanksgiving Day contest that Philadel-
| phia has ever had Not a defeat has
! marrcd the record of Pennsylvania during
the entire football year Pennsylvania
| victory by an IS TO 4 score was made by
! hard, clean football. There were none of
| the Objectionable features so often mani.
| tested in the big games. The feeling be-
| tween the colleges is very friendly, and
although every man on the rival elevens
| played to the full extent Of his Sbility, no
| slugginR nor any unnecessary roughness
/ were in evidence during the match.
So hard and fast was the play that five
Of the Cambridge men were compelled to
! leave the field. Charley Brewer wrcnohed
| his weak ankle In the first half and Har-
ward was without the services Of her best
| kicker. Emmons' leg was also strained
and he was compelled to go to the side
| lines. The other injured players were
| HallOwell, Wheeler aud Fsirchild The
loss OF these men naturally handicapped
the Haryards, but nevertheless they put
| up most stubborn game. Pennsylvania's
team showed by far the better training,
and, ms was the case in the match with
| Princeton, the eleven remained intact
throughout the contest
To Brooke belongs the great credit of
Pennsylvanias victory. His punting was
the finest ever seen in a football match,
and neither Hayes nor Charley Brewer
were i'm the same class with him. Hayes
punting was very poor, and one of his
kicks was responsible for touchdown.
All Of the Harvard backs fumbled more or
less, Hayes and Whittemore especially be-
ing at fault in this respect.
Osgood did the best running for the
Quuners. Try as they did, Harvard could
not break mp the magnificent Interference
OF the Quabcrs. The two guards Wood
run and Wharton, would plunge into the
line, opening up the tackles and protected
by knipe, Colbert and Williams, Osgood
would go through fo. large gains. The
Harvard Interference was easily broken up
by the fierce tackling of Wharton Wood
ruff, Minds and Wagonhurst
Waters was the star player for Harvard.
He took charge OF the team after Captain
Emmons was disabled, and was seen to
advantage i'm every play He got down
the field quicker than the ends ON kicks
and tackled hard and sure. His work in
he interference was also the best seen in
the crimson ranks, and the majority of the
gains made by Harvard were due to open
ings made by him in the line.
| Harvard plainly exhibited the effects of
her rough u.ag2 at the hands of Yale on

comparison with that OF the Quakcrs.

a number Of their openings, and they
would drive their tandem interference
through him at such a rapid rate that he
was soon scarcely able TO stand on his
feet. Wheeler, who took his place, played
the better game Of the two.
