Pennsylvania Barely Managed to De-
feat the BuckneII Heavywefghts.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 25-The Univer-
sity OF Pennsylvania football team to-day
defeated the Bucknell team on Franklin
Field by the narrow margin of 6 to 5. The
Lewisburg eleven outweighed Pennsylva-
MIA nearly ten pounds to the man, but the
Quakers put more dash into their work
than in any previous game this season.
The plays were got off smoothly and the
backs started quickly, two points which
have caused the coaches much anguish.
Neither eleven scored in the first half,
but early in the second half Bucknell car
ried the ball from their own twenty-yard
line to the Pennsylvania goal without once
losing 1t. Shipp, Bucknells big left tackle,
was used as a battering ram in this
ground-gaining exhibition. A few minutes
later Pennsylvania carried the ball from
midfield to within two feet of Bucknell's
goal, only to lose it on downs. 1t was
kicked out of danger to the visitors thirty
yard line. The Quakers' play became more
fierce, and they rushed the ball over for
their only touchdown. two minutes before
the timekeeper's whistle announced cessa-
ton of hostilities. Pennsylvania was
weakened by the absence of Gardner and
the star tackle, Baird, and in the face of
this i'll fortune the victory was the more
surprising. Line-up:
