of Quarterback Marshall who, on great
| 5o-yard run, scored the touchdown that
Won the game. Flushed with victory in
! the last moment of play, the crowd be-
came SO enthusiastic that it rushed on
the playing field, interrupting the game.
1t was five minutes before the police
could force the foot ball rooters back to
the side lines long enough to permit
Pennsylvania to put the finishing touches
to the score.
The Michigan team, playing like a
championship eleven, had Pennsylvania
down II to . in the second period, when
the fortunes of the battle changed. The
Pennsylvanians suddenly became a
changed team in the latter part Of the

dash the Red and Blue put the score up
to q, the Michigan team appearing al
most helpless to stop her.
There was no fault to be found with
Michigaq's game while she was putting
tosether her u points. Her rushing of
the ball was OF high order, and the line
bucking of Thomson was the best seen
here this season. Pennsylvania appear
ed erratic and suffered much from
fumbling. But when the Quakers took
their brace conditions were reversed.
The western team scored its first touch
down few minutes after play began.

vanias 40-yard line, Michigan was
awarded fifteen yards for interference, and

ting 1t over was given to Thomson, and
he accomplished ii on plunge against
Pennsylvania center.
Michigan made her third touchdown
after Pennsylvania twice lost the ball on
incompleted forward passes. Getting the
bali on a touchback, Michigan, through
the great work of Thomson, rushed it
SO yards. Pennsylvania being unable to
hold the plunging Michigan backs.
Then came the change. Pennsylvania
made her first touchdown on short end
runs. long forward pass and 10-yard
dash by Capt. Mercer. The second score
came in the third period on a 3O-yard
run by Mercer, a forward pass, Harring-
tons plunges through the iine ard final
buck through the center by Mercer. In
the last period Pennsylvania secured the
ball on Michigans 45-yard line. and a
35-yard forward pass by Minds landed
the ball in Jourdet's hands, ard the lat
