which came their way and turned loose
a forward pass attack when the rush

down possible.
But the Quakers played themselves
out in those first three periods. They
lacked the reserve force which proved
to be such a potent factor for Cor
uell IN that last period the defence
wavered and was broken down just
enough for Cornell to batter lis way
along for two touchdowns and goal
from the field which turned a bitter,
hard fought battle into decisive
victory.
Cornell's running attack gained 191
wards by straight rushing for nine first
downs. and, as said before, 1t had
plenty of power and drives even though
somewhat confined in its scope. The
defence was rugged and well con-
/ ceived that the Quakers gained only Sc
yards by straight rushing for three
/ first downs. Some trouble was expert
enced in countering on the forward
pass when Pennsylvania directed this
mode of attack over the RIGHT side OF
the Cornell line, but, strange 10 say,
full advantage was not taken of this.
In the second half the Quakers shot

Cornell Gains in Punting.
In punting Cornell also had the ad-
vantage. although Bell did exception

opponent. while his first punt, after
Pennsylvania had kicked off, carried
and rolled 80 yards to the 3-yard line
of the Quakers. II was a mighty drive
and did much to boost his average.
Cornell completed two OF four for
ward passes for gain of p yards, and
Pennsylvania gained 81 yards in this
way. The men from Ithaca also stood
out in running back kick-ofs, 145 yards
being credited in this way. Of fumbles
and penalties there were few.
