PENN BACKS DRILLED
TO ATTACK FLANkS
Only Consolation Is That Penn
Ends Are Not Overly Strong
Themselves

II Michigan is beaten by Pennsyi'
v&uia, Saturday. on Ferry field at Ann
Arbor. 1t will be because OF Its weak
ends which Pennsy will rush con
tfiatally until they completely sue
cumb.
Il Is figured that Pennsy realizes
tho weakness of the Michigan extremi
ties. Coach Brooke is the kind oil q
n,entor who relies on sweeping the
ends for large number of his gains
~ forms his team with the idea Of
giving It the speed TO get past the
tanks. He devotes more than ordi
nary attention TO that style OF attack
Besides that he has an unusually
large repertoire of trick plays, old
fashioned ones and unconstitutional
cf1es. that are designed to worry and
f6ul the ends and the secondary de'
fonse for long gains. Then BROOKE
hhs the forward pass and basketoaii
STYLE OF play down to perfection.

Wolverines vulnerable points. II
