FRANKLIN FIELD, Nov. 26,-Penn
was too fast for Cornell; score, Ii to 4.
The score tells the story. Cornell got a
goal from field and that was all.
In the second half, while Pennsyl-
vania outplayed Cornell in nearly every
department OF the game. the Red and
Blue did not put their usual dash into
their play. Cornell was unable to make
any impression on Pennsylvania line
and their attempts at forward passes
were ludcrous not one reaching the OBJ
jective player before touching the
ground.
Cornell must have been pleased. how
ever. with the conditions. which meant
the slowing up of PENIS fast backs in
the lightning Work of the open game
the Quakers have been playing the past
month. PENIS players had prayed for
a dry field so as 10 prove their claim TO
the college football championship this
year beyond the question of doubt in
the minds of even the Crimson players
themselves, and their coaches. most of

Penn the Strongest Team.
Penn clearly showed the strongest
offense and defnse but was placed
at a disadvantage by Hollenback's poor
kicking. The wonderful punting of
Walder compelled Penn to make up
many yards.
Right at the start OF the game Hol-
lenback. usually about the best punter
in the business, made three very bad
kicks which had no distance to them
or went out of bounds. This enabled
Cornell to get the ball into close
proximity of PENIS goal line and make
try for field goal which succeeded
Move kicking 1t from his 3O-yard
line Cornell could make very few
gains on rushing the ball, PENIS de-
Tense being too strong to be pierced
: On the other hand Penn, principally
, due to Hollenbacks great runs, made
many substantial gains, once taking
the ball down from her 2O-yard
line clear across Cornell's goal without
losing It, for touchdown.
A great farward pass from Miller to
Draper. which gained 30 yards, helped
Penn materially to make this score
The work of Hollenback, Manner,
Draper, CASTOR and Scarlet for Penn,
and OF Valdez, Hutchinson. Wood,
Cosgrove and Hurlburt for Cornell was
brilliant. Keinath, PENIS great. but
badly crippled quarter back, didn't last
very long before he had TO be replaced
by Miller. Score first half, Penn, 6;
Cornell. 4.
