the first half, Pennsylvania offensive
and defensive play was as magnl1cenI
an exhibition of fast scientific footpali
as has ever been seen in this city Inc

vain that their backs hurled thefn-
selves against pennsylvania lhlpi e5

from recent rains, and before the game,
and between the halves 1t was neceS-
Sery to cover it almost from END 10 emu

and but two men were badly enough
hurt to have to retire. The umplrlnS
and referreeing of the game was OF the
highest order.

comodated 5000 people each rose tier

packed, ten deep, 1000 men and boys.
Pennsylvania had the south stand,
and before and during the game the en-
thuSiaStic adherentS of the red ana
blue cheered and sang their college
war songs to the encouragement OF
their battling warriors of the gridiron.
Cornell had a section of the north stand
and some three or four hundred follow
ers of the red and white strove to
hearten the IthacanS with their cheers.

yelling PennSylVanianS who surround
ed them on all sides.

nearly as warm a greeting as the home
