PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 29,-Twenty
thousand people saw Pennsylvania de-
~. Harvard on the local college ground
,o.d.y. l. was the last game of the
'.,,on for the two teams and the frst
MrTbsnk.siying Day contest that Phila.
d.Iubi, has ever had. Another bright
rlrms sdorns tho cap OF Captain Knipe.
III. team has won renown such as was
n.ysr before known in the history OF
N. biz university. Not q defeat has
marked the record Of the white and blue
during the entire foot ball year and
Harvard was the third team to succeed
IN crossing her goal line. Pennsylva'
pis's victory by an Is to 4 score was
m,de by hard, clean loot ball. There
vsre none Of the Objectionable features
a. oi,en manifested in the big games.
Tia iseling between the colleges Is very
friendly and although every man on the
riysl eleyens played to the full extent
of bis ability, no slugging or unneces-
,,ry roughness was in evidence during
the match. So bard and fast was the
uIiy that fvo Of the Cambridge men
rsia compelled to leave the field.
Cbarley Brewer .wrenched his weak
snkle in the first half and Harvard 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 Halo
well. Wheeler and Fairchild.
Pennsylvania was the first to appear,
coming on from the southeast corner OF
The field. Tremendous cheering her
aided the appearance OF Captain
Knipe's warriors.
HARVARD WON THE TOSS.
The men practiced punting, passing
and falling on the ball until the Har-
ward eleven came on at 2:l5. The coin
vas tossed and Captain Emmons called
the turn correctly, choosing the left
goal Tor the crimsons, with the wind
and the sun In his favor. Sweaters
we're pulled at 2:20, and the teams pre-
pared themselves for the conflict which
was to decide the supremacy between
them.
Brooke kicked off for the Quakers
and the great match was on.
Desperately the strong line OF the
crimson would plunge into the inter.
ference Of the Quakeis, and the bail was
ksp. lowering near mid.feld. Only
two points were scored in the first hall,
and these were made by Pennsylvania

right on him. The Harvard back
seemed TO lose his head and took the
ball over his own line, There vas q
wild pandemonium in the ranks OF red
and blue when 1t was known that GRIM
son had been scored on. Only few
minutes remained to play, and when
time was called Harvard had the ball
90 her forty-fye-yard line.
HARVARD SHOWED WEAKNESS.
Matters took a different turn in the
second half. The Harvard team showed
Itself weak in the face OF the fierce on
slaughtot the Quakers aud the play was
almost entirely in their territory. Three
toueh-downs from which two goals
were kicked and made by the Quakers,
while Harvard succeeded in crossing
the line, but failed to kick the goal. To
Brooke belongs the great credit OF
Pennsylyania's victory. His puntiug
was the finest ever seen in a foot pall
match and neither Hayes nor Charley
Brewer were in the same class with
him. Hayes punting was very poor
and one Of his kicks was responsible for
alouch.down. He sent the ball very
low and tho Pennsylvania forwards,
breaking through, blocked the ball,
and Wagonhurst, with clear field,
rushed 1t down between the goal posts.
All Of Haryard's backs fumbled more or
