In the matter OF good football and the
unexpected in whch their contests
usually abound the Pennsylvana-Ind
game, which the Quakers won by the
score OF 10, was far below the standard.
It was a game between two green teams.
neither one of which has yet found itself.
The Indians had a lot more power,
particularly in their line, than they had
been given credit for possessing. Their
three successive defeats before they
reached Franklin Field had given the
college world the impression that they
were far below the usual Indian stand
ard. Perhaps they were until they
changed captains. but the Indian for
wards certainly outplayed the Pennsyl-
vania line most Of the time, and in
ability to gain ground by rushing and
running tactics their backs We're slightly
superior 10 the Quakers,
That the Indians didn't win the game
was due to lack OF varied attack Twice
they had the ball inside Penn's 1O-yard
line But their attack had nothing but
the line thrust II gained In midheld
because II was we'll devised and also
because the Pennsylvania defense was
spread out looking for forward passes
and wide end runs. But once inside the
20-yard line the Redmen could not de-
pend on anything but oId-fashioned
football and with this they couldn't gain
because the Pennsylvania defense
massed TO stop IL. Al the end OF the
second march down the field it looked
like sure Indian touchdown, but
tumble made an attempt at a goal from
placement the only resort.
Il Z rare indeed that an Indian team comes
