Cambridge, Mass. November S.--As was expected Harvard defeated the University of Pennsylvania on Soldiers field today without difficulty, but the score of Il to c, was about one-half of what was ex- pected. Four times Harvard was inside of Pennsylvania 12-yard line, but two fum- bles, holding in the line and a grand brace by the Quakers, on their own g. yard line, kept Harvard from scoring many additional points There were other fumbles by Harvard during the game not so noticeable or so costly, but neverthe- less sufficiently serious to make this a discording feature in the Harvard stand point.
 With the exception of five minutes in the first half and less than a minute in the second half, the play was entirely in Pennsylvanias territory so that the Quaker's were on the defensive. And well did they hold the heavier Harvard team. Every yard of the field the crimson cov- cred was only gained by tremendous amount of physical force. It was, there fore, disappointing to Harvard packers to see all the energy expended, only to be thrown to the winds by a miserable tumble, when the fruits of it were almost within reach.
 Had Three Good Starts.
 Three times in the first half Harvard started for the Quaker goal. The first time she reached the 12-yard line, where the ball went to Pennsylvania for hold ing Next she got within three yards of the goal line, right under the posts, where Putnam fumbled. The third time Har- yard scored, starting from Pennsylvania 30-yard line. and gradually pushing the ball along until Grayson was dragged across Barnard made a. miserable fail ure for the goal. Harvard narrowly miss ed, making safety just after this score, as Putnam muffed the ball at the kick-off and after carrying it behind the hne' Just managed to get back into the field.
 The second half was in a great meas- ure a repetition of the first. At the start Harvard banged, plunged, dragged and pushed until the ball was on Pennsyl- vanias 12-yard line. Then came the usual tumble. Stillman being tH offend- CT. After a bunting match Harvard start ed again for a score, and once more got inside of Pennsylvania's 5-yard line, again under the goal post, but grand brace by the Quakers gave them the ball on downs.
 Spectacular Feature.
 The second score followed soon after this, and was the one spectacular feat ure of the game From the very center of the field Stillman circled Pennsyl- vanias end, and aided by a stonewall interference ran clear to the goal line This time Barnard managed to kick the goal and the score of Il to kept so un- til the end of the game. Except for fine brace by Pennsylvania, during which the team made four first downs to the astonishment of the crowd, there was very little interest in the balance of the contest and the game ended with the ball in Harvard's possession, as usual, in Pennsylvania's territory.
