Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. 29--Although
Pennsylvania failed to beat Cornell. or to
even score on the Red and White on
Franklin Field this afternoon, yet she
closed the season in blaze Of glory that
will live in the memory OF Pennsylva-
mans for years to come That the Ithi-
cans did not win was due TO a wondurful
display Of Pennsylvania grit, which pre-
vented the cornell team from carrying
the bali over for a touch down. although
the latter was required TO make but
three yards or less several times, and
yet failed to gain the distance.
Neither team changed the lineup at
the beginning Of the second half, but
Cornell showed much better form, and
outplayed the Red and Blue eleven in
every department Of the game. Taking
the ball at midfeld, after fifteen minutes
Of play in this half, Cornell was able
10 carry it by straight line plunging and
a forward pass to Gibson TO Pennsyl-
vania's 15-yard line. Being on the
side lines, Cornell was prevented from
attempting a field goal. and Jamison
tried a quarter back forward pass HOl-

Annapolis, Nd. Nov. 29-The whole
brigade of midshipmen. and the navy con-
jingent in general. is looking forward TO
he departure Of the team tomorrow, and
the game on Saturday with great interest
There was no formal demonstration. as
such things have been prohibited, but
the general feeling here is that the Navy
team this season has the best chance
TO win Of any team that Annapolis has
sent out for years. The party will be
Under charge of Commandant l. 3. How
ard, and besides the twenty-nine players
and substitutes, will be composed Of

several naval officers. The party will

dc!phia. The team viii return Sunday
afternoon. The brigade o. midshipmen
will leave Saturday morning and return
the same night. It vii. be commanded
by Capt. George P COlvOcOresses, com
mandant of midshipmen.
The last practice here was held this
afternoon. It was secret, and consisted Of
signal work only. The Midshipmen will
use Franklin Field tomorrow afternoon
for en- additional signal practice, the last
before the lineup against the Army on
Saturday.
All the positions have been filed except
the tackles, and just who viii face Weeks
and Pullen, the Army strong men. is still
undecided, and will not be settled until the
last moment.
It is likely. however, that Northcroft
and Piersol, the veterans, viii finally win
out. and be placed at left and right tackle,
respectively. Leighton and Simpson are
the next choices, and may be substituted
at any moment. Besides the experience,
the first named have the advantage Of
about five pounds or more in weight.
The rest of the lineup against the Army
will be: Left end, Barnard; left guard,
Meyers; center, Slingluf; right guard,
Wright right end. Dague; quarter, Nor

the ball on the Carolina 2-yard line. From

ern gridiron was the game between the
Carlisle Indians and the University of Vir-
ginia on Lafayette Field this afternoon,

Much kicking and long runs made the
game such a one as spectators liked best
and the 1900 people present were kept up
TO high pitch of enthusiasm. The held
and weather conditions were perfect for
the game Virginia kicked OF. For the
first ten minutes of play both sides we're
cautious, and neither side appeared to
have the advantage, the ball being in the
air a great part of the game. This was
kept UP until Little Boy fumbled one Of
Randolph's kicks on Carlisle's 30-yard
line. Johnson snapped up the ball, and
avoiding two Indians who were in his
way. took the ball over for the first
touchdown. Joy and excitement in the
ranks Of Virginia supporters was intense.
The ball was kicked out, and Johnson
