victory over Gettysburg College by the
score of 20 to 0. The visitors did not
prove as strong as they have done in
previous years and did not make a single
first down. The Pennsylvania team made
three touchdowns in the first half on long
runs and a forward pass. Ramsdell. the
sprinter. who played left halfback, was
the particular star for the Red and Blue.
He made three long runs, varying from
40 to 65 yards. Hutchinson. at fullback.
was almost as effective as Ramsdel1. A
drop kicker of some promise was dis
covered in the second half. This was
Thayer. who succeeded Hutchinson at
fullback. He scored one field goal from
the 25-yard line. and later just missed
one from the 45-yard mark. The lineup:
