cate che power behind the driving
blow OF the Blue and Gold. for Warner
sent his star toe man, Andy Hastings,
emf for attempts at field goals at every
anonymity. Two Amy made, four he
missed.
boosters Of both teams cheered them
solves hoarse IS the warriors OF the
rricirou swept back and forth over the
feld. but Pitts goal line was never IN
danrer--not once.
Howard Berry, star o. the State-Penn
zane. was only a glimmer in to-day's
encounter, and the going proved so

backward. while. on the other hand,
ANDY Hastings, McLaren, Morrow and
De Hart found the Penn line penetrs-
bic at almost any point for substantial
gaias.

for one OF his punts was blocked and
resulted in a Pitt touchdown, while
others had 70 be made with such haste
that they were only trifles.

winning the toss, but PENIS meE held
after several plunges and Pitt was
forced 20 kick. The ball seesswed back

the second period and three line rushes
BY Pitt backs were futile. De Hart

il, and the count stood: Pitt, IS; Penn,
O. Il was Penn's ball in Pitt territory
when the half ended, but the heroes Of
