wholesome tune of 2s to IS, thus clos
ing the most disastrous football season
the Maize and Blue has had in the
fifteen years Yost has coached at
Michigan.
Three defeats in a year have never
before been onsiked up against Yost-
coached varsity team, and twenty
eight points is the second largest total
score ever made against a Michigan
team.
The Wolverines led at the end of
the first half BY 10 to 6 count but
Barrett. Phillippi and Schiller came
back strong in the final periods with
three touchdowns and g field goal
while the Wolverines were unable to
tally.
Barrett was the individual star of
the game, and. in addition TO drop
kicking from the 20-yard line, he broke
away for a 65-ysrd run for touch
down in the last quarter. Runs OF
60 and As yards by the Cornell quar-
terback also made the two touchdowns
Of Phillippi possible.
Phillippi gave as sensational an ex-
hibition Of line plunging as Maui
betsch has ever made on Ferry Field,
netting fifty yards on six consecutive
plunges in the third quarter. Next to
Barrett, he was the best ground-gainer
in the game.
Cornell out-rushed Michigan, which
was a novel experience for the VOL
verines this fall. The answer lay in
the Michigan line. The Wolverine
youngsters were easily outplsyed by
the Cornell veterans, and Captain
D.
two Michigan forwards who could more
than hold their own.
Frick Plays Smothered.
The Michigan line failed to hold
long enough for the Michigan fake
plays TO get under way, and the tricks
which so bewildered Penn last week
were smothered by Captain O'Hearn
and his assistants.
In the first quarter Michigan started
with a rush. and when Captain Rayns-
ford blocked Barrett's rush the Wolver.
ines got scoring chance, as he kicked
short on his second trial. The first
score was made in barely four minutes,
Hughitt tossing a forward pass some
thirty wards 20 Staatz, who fell over
the goal line for the score.
Another long forward pass IN the
second period gave Michigan her sec
ond score. Splawn throwing TO Benton
FOR first down on the ll-yard hne'
and Maulbetsch soon plunged over.
Hughitt kicked the goal, and Michigan
had q lead Of Is points. This was all
the Wolverines made, however, and
Cornell fought back for her hrst taliy
IN the same quarter.
Rarrett made the Cornell score pos
sible By wonderful exhibition OF open
field running. Catching a punt on hif
5-yard line. he ran straight up the
side lines through a broken held TO
the Michigan 33-yard line. The Cor
nell star did not vary two feet from
the side line i'm his 64-yard sprint, per-
fect blocking by his teammates now
ing down the Maize and Blue tacklers.
Phillippi. who took the line-plunglng
honors. made the Cornell TOUCHDOWN
carrvinC the ball most OF the way; lie
made most Of his gains through Mlcn-
iean's right guard or around Maui
betsch, at left end. Captain y heaIn'

no real resistance until the Michigan

The 19-vard line Barrett and Phllllppl
necotiated the distance steadily, and
the latter made the score. .,
Rarrett punted over Hughitts heao
n the g-vard line in the fourth period
and when Splawn punted back barret'
returned some thirty yards to Mlcnl,,
cans 17-yard line. Michigan proved
tough shedding on this trip, however 6d
and Barrett dropped back to his ~,
ward line and drop-kicked a perfect
field goal NJ.
The final score was made by Barrett
on a run of sixty yards from his 40,
ward line for touchdown. He SHIFTED
through the entire Michigan team, and
no one touched him until he reached
the goal line, where Splawn tackled MN
from behind. The Ithaca star was in
iured on the play and had to leave the
game, which was nearly over, however.
