w. and J. will find the Georgetown
line stiff proposition TO break down,
but the MANY forward pass formations
used by. Folwells s eleven may upset
the hopes of the Hilltop contingent.
Defense against these forward fiings
will take up the attention OF squad
and coaches all this week. What EX-
endine and Cox saw last Saturday has
made them extremely serious. They
saw long forward passes out on the
ends and short ones across the middle

it's greatest weakness all season, both

Dartrnouth's overwhelming victory
over Pennsylvania Saturday has left
sore place in the hearts OF the Quakers
and one Philadelphia writer today says
In some instances the old adage Of
+ can't lick you bra I can lick the rlan
who can." holds goo6 but hardly in th.
case. There were charges that some of
the Penn men quit in the game with
Michigan. 1t was hoped that the players
would recover themselves. and gaining
in experience. would make gamer fight
gainst Dartmouth. Unfortunately that
was not the case and the showing
againS. Dartmouth has brought forth
the criticism that Penn was not only de-
[eated but quit cold" to the Big Green
jearI. Up at Michigan il is considered
calamity that the team has broken all
1"cent records 10y being defeated three
times in a season. And there can be no
uustion that Michigan had a prstty good
'e0nl at that With reas son for expect
ing better things. maybe that is why
Michigan is taking defeats so much TO
heart. Here at Penn we hoped ioT bet
ter things without having any especially
good reason for expecting them. With
three defeats. those by Franklin and
Marshall, Michigan and Dartmouth, and
The scoreless tie with Lafayette we
haven't anything to become joyful about
Bot there is still one game TO play. Let
defeat come if il must-there Is 70 dis
