In the front rank of the football teams.
| Where the sturdy athletes of ancient Yse
mad Jailed and given up championship
honors, Pennsylvania attacked. Crashing
through and breaking asunder that hither-
TO lnVlnelble line, they carried the ball
forward and forward over the touchdown
line and planted the red and blue flag
behind the goal post.
| The Tigers, who three hours before
bounced on the gridiron full OF confidence,
now filed sadly off the field, many Of them
so weak and crl pied that they had TO be
borne in the arms Of comrades. The big
crowd went wild. The huge yellow chrys-
anthemums and the long black streamers
| faded from sight, and in Their places hun
dreds of blue and red UNI brellas, blue and
red handkerchiefs, blue and red ribbons
burst into view like magic. The vast

put the Tigers at no time had chance of
victory. Pennsylvania outplayed them
man for man, and never was the Quaker

but the Tiger fulIback punted the ball into
the ranks of his own men. and Williams,
with lightning agility. tucked the leather
under his left arm, dashed DOVE the field
through the Tigers ranks and dropped it
behind the goal post Brooke placed the
ball sQuarely between the posts and over
the bar, scoring six points fer Pennsylva-
about ten minutes after play had been
called.
! No scoring was done in the first half, al
though the Quakers took the ball within
six inches OF PrincetOn's goal line, about
the middle of the first half, and lost it on
four downs, through what was probably
an error in judgment. Knipe signaled
Gilbert to 60 through the tackle. The
4 ".
managed to shut down the Pennsylvania
fullback. 1t looked as if they were an
ticipatiug a center play, and had Gilbert
been swung around the end he would IN
douttedly have gotten it over, as he had
little more than a yard to go. Throughout
this half, as we'll as in the next, the ball
was almost constantly in PIinceton's terri
tory. Never were the Tigers nearer than
the Pennsylvania twenty-fve-yard line.
and then only on kicks, which Brooke i'm
mediately returned, gaining from ten TO
twenty yards on every exchange of points
with Cochran.
Pennsylvania second touchdown was
made about five minutes before the call of
time. The Quakers pounded through the
tackles, pierced the center and had carried
the ball to PriD ceton's ten-yard line. Here
it was passed to Osgood, who like a flash
wheeled to the left. shook himself loose
from the Princeton end rush and carried
the ball over the line. In the former case
the goal was an easy one for Brooke.
After this Pennsylvania might have been
said to have toyed with the Tigers. They
took no chances whatever, and Brooke
would kick every time the ball approached
Pennsylvania territory. This was a
gain that rested the red and blue, while
the Princeton men at this stage of the
contest were topping over by two or three
on every line up. Throughout the game
| Brooke's kicking was brilliant feature,
and perhaps never had its equal been seen
on the footballs field. No matter how hard
pressed or how close the rushers wers
upon him, he always punted long and
surely.
Although great surprise to the multi
tude and even to football experts generally
speaking, it was clear case of the van
quis he'd being outclassed, as was predicted
in these dispatches this morning. The
teams lined up as follows:
