 Superior Playing.
HARVARD TEAM WEAKENS

Philadelphia, November 11.-Pennsylva- I fiercest gridiron battles ever witnessed
 on Franklin field. The final score was 12 l to G. Both elevens scored a touchdown
 and kicked the goal in the first half, and 1 the Quaker eleven added second touch
 down in the second half.
 It is a peculiar coincidence that Lamson, the player over whom there has been so 1 much contention, should have scored 1 both touchdowns for the Pennsylvania
 eleven That there was ill-feeling between the players of the two elevens was made ;, apparent early in the first half when
 Parker, the Crimson center. was dsaual-
 filed for slugging and again in the sec- ond half when Sheble was sent to the
 club house for like offense.
 Due to Element of Luck. Both touchdowns in the first half were due to an element of luck Before the
 game had been in progress three minutes
 and with the ball within ten yards of
 Harvards goal, Foster was sent against
 Pennsylvania left tackle. As he struck 1 the line Foster dropped the ball and when 1 Referee McClung was able to get the
 mass of humanity off, Robinson was ly- | ing on the ball within eight yards of Har- yards goal. In three plays Lamson was pushed over for touchdown. The score
 was made so quickly that the great crowd scarcely realized it. It was then liar yards turn for a run of luck. Barr kick ed to Sheble, who had a splendid oppor- tunity to carry the ball out of danger, but | just as he got well started. he dropped the pgskin, but a Quaker player fell on | 1t within four yards of Pennsylvania s | goal. Sheble kicked on the first line up, | the ball going to Hurley of Harvard on Pennsylvania forty-yard line. Here the Crimson eleven began to work their famous tandem, and aided by two off-sde plays, which netted them ten yards they
 quickly pushed the ball over for touch
 down.
 The third touchdown was made on hard,
 clean football. Pennsylvania got the ball on Harvard's forty-yard mark on an ex- change of kicks, and pushed it over for
 the final touchdown by straight line plung-
 ing. Torrey kicked the goal.
 Numerous Changes In Line-Up. The numerous changes in the Harvard line up attest the ferceness with which , the Pennsylvania players went into the tandem play of the Crimson. Five men | were so badly weakened that they were sent to the side lines. The Pennsylvania
 line up remained intact, however, with the exception of Sheble. who made too | free use of his hands.
 There was probably never a football game played in which there was such
 difference in two halves. In the first half Harvard completely out played Pennsyl-
 vania, and gained ground almost at will while in the second half the Crimson players made only one first down, but | their offense and defense weakened per-
 ceptibly as the game progressed, while Pennsylvania's attack and defense im- proved 50 per cent. This was probably
 due to the superb condition of the Quaker eleven.
 | The day was perfect for football. Not
 one of the 22,0OO odd seats was vacant
 when play was begun, and there were i probably 20O0 persons standing around l the gridiron enclosure
