Cambridge. Mass. Oct. 29.-The third
surprise of the football season oc-
CURED at Soldiers Field to-day when
the Harvard eleven was not only de-
feated and prevented from scoring,
but was completely outplayed in every
department of the game by the Uni
versjty of Pennsylvania. The final
scoring was. Pennsylvania, II; Har-
ward. 0.
Only three times throughout the
game was the Harvard eleven within
striking distance of Pennsylvania
goal. On two of these occasions she
fumbled the ball. On the third she
was held for downs when only twelve
yards away from the Pennsylvania
goal. The game was a spectacular
one throughout and the defeat of the
Harvard team was hardly more un-
expected than the game shown by the
wearers of the blue and red.

VIII De Result of Savannah's
Claims That Charleston Had Glenn
son Team Last Year.
According to statement made by
Coach Forsyth of the Florida State
College during his stay here, Charles
ton will play the entire 1903 Clemson
team against Savannah in the annual
New Years contest here.
According to Forsyth. this is large
ly the result of the claims made by
Savannah last year that they had de-
feated the entire Clemson team. The
Clemson men got together and decided
they would offer the entire 1908 team
to Charleston to play against Savan-
nah and show whether they could de-
feat the local eleven.
I'VE only had two Clemson men on
the team which played Savannah In
Charleston New Years." said For
syth. "These were Saddler and my
self. Sneed was not a Clemson man.
He did play part of one game with
the team, but was not good enough
to make the team.
II have been In correspondence with
Capt. Saddler. Maxwell and others
and we have decided If Charleston will
use the team intact we will play, but
unless they do, none of us will play,
as Savannah would get the credit of
defeating the Clemson team again in
the event we lost
Forsyth is confident the star team
turned out by Heisrnan will be able to
defeat any team Savannah can get to-
gether. There is a difference of opin-
ion here. and Manager McIntire says
he would be glad to have the entire
1903 Clemson team come here for a
game.
AT present Charleston is worrying
along with Indians and some young
gentlemen who make their homes in
Charleston for convenience sake. Few
members of the team which is playing
there now live in Charleston, and there
will, perhaps, be still fewer Charles
tonians on the team when 1t lines UP
against Savannah New Years.
Not a man has been imported 10 play
on the Savannah team. and the sup
porters of the game here are Justly
proud of this. Never before in the his
tory of the game IN Savannah has
there been such an abundance of good
material Capt. Cope says he believes
it is possible to whip out a team from
the material at hand that will be able
to cope with all Corners.
