Pennsylvania's work was a repetition
Of its performance against Michigan

from behind and tailed four touch
downs in the last 80 minutes Of play,
winning in the final 80 seconds.
This afternoon the Indians came from
behind and passed Pennsylvania only
to lose out through whirlwind finish
Of the Red and Blue. Jim Thorpe, tho
sll-around athlete, whose playing was
the feature Of the day. made the tumble
which paved the way for Pennsylva-
MAS victory. Thorpe had previously
made an S0-yard run through a broken
field for a touchdown and had been
responsible for every one Of the red
skins scores.
Captain Mercer starred for Pennsyl-
vania. 1t was his forward pass to
Jourdet that put Pennsylvania in the
lead with only five minutes to play. and
1t was a brilliant dash around the end
a few minutes later, which gave Penn
