The Pennsylvania-Ha Harvard game WAS
the prctteSt and most open game ever
played on Franklin Field.
Who ever said that Hauyhton conll
not kick must have been dreaming.
1T was Il kicking game. That's The
KIND that the people like.
Pcnn's guard back formation certainly
is ground gamer
IcnnsElvhnia gained many yards on
exchanges of kicks.
Harvard rootcrs cannot blame yester-
days defeat to the playing of Cabot ana .
Harrison, as the former did not play ana .
the latter played great game.
That goal from the field made hv
Minds WAS pretty piece of work.
Molicc is no Slouch rs Il puntcr.

end. cluding four Of Pennsylvania men
and running 80 yards for touchdown
was very fine

Hnryard's line held mAgniticently when
Penn had the ball on her thrcc-yard line

That touchdown of Parker's caused
many bcttors lots of money. So did Yale.

Oh. what a funny feeling the resi-
lcnts of Princeton must have.
Goodman put up a splendid game until

Just before the game closed the streets
