CRUSHING LINE PLAY
WINS FOR MICHIGAN
Pennsylvania Defence Crushed
Under Terrific Attack OF
YOSt's Men.
CRAIG THE HERO OF GAME
Minds, Weak and Crippled,
Makes Gallant Effort TO Stem
Tide, but Dismally Fails
at Forward Passes.

Ann Arbor. Mich. Nov. l5.-Using the
same terrific line attack that crushed
Syracuse. the football eleven Of the Unit
versity Of Michigan to-day defeated
Pennsylvania. 10 to o. Michigan simply
battered the defence OF the Fasteners 10
pieces. At no time during the game was
Pennsylvania even dangerous
Pennsylvanla's attack was as erratic
as her defence was mediocre. Now and
then, at wide intervals. one OF Brooke
men skirted a Michigan end for six or
seven yards gain. Attempts TO pierce
Michgan's line were SO unsuccessful dur
ing the first half that they were practi-
cally abandoned during the final period.
Pennsylvania. the same az Michigan.
was a distinct victory for old fashioned,
sledge hammer football
There were few sensations. The great
est excitement came during the first
period, when Michigan secured the ball
in Pennsylvania territory. The Wolver-
inc linemen opened big holes and the
Wolverine backs did the rest. Craig, Gait
and Hughitt seldom had 10 be content
with gains Of less than five yards. and.
finally, Craig crossed the goal line Pat
erson kicked goal.
one of the few forward passes success
fully executed helped give Michigan a
second touchdown. The play was made
during the second period. 1t was toss
from Hughitt TO Lyons that Melted TWEEN
ty-iive yards and IL put the Yost men
within striking distance OF the Blue and
Red goal. Craig crashed through tackle
for 5-yard gain which scored the touch
down. Patersons attempt TO kick the
goal failed. the ball hitting the cross
bar.
Holding IN the line cost Michigan a
third touchdown. In the third period Pat
erson dropped back apparently to at
tempt a field goal. A trick play resulted.

yards for a score. The ball was brought
back and Michigan was penalized fifteen
yards.
Brooke. head coach for Pennsylvania,
made a desperate effort to strengthen
his eleven in the second half lie called
on the crippled Minds to replace Avery
at fullback, and the fleet Marshall took
Mcrrills place at quarterback. Pennsyl-
vania then shifted TO the open game, on
offence. using Minds to start forward
passes. but they were invariably unsuc-
cessful.
More than 5000 persons witnessed the
struggle. Tie grandstands and bleachers
were damned to capacity and hundreds

the game
Michigan. with an attack composed en-
tirely OF straight football, smashed
through Pennsylvania line again and

was worked into the territory Of the East

the line and a long forward pass. Hugh
