Interest in Football Centers
in Contest Between Penn

Eastern Team Not Figured
to Win, but Followers of
Penn Expect to See Battle
of the Season With Yost's
Great Team.

New York, Nov. 17.-Michigan and
Pennsylvania universities will hold the
football center Of attraction this aft
ernoon at Philadelphia in the thir-
.eenth struggle Of their long rivalry.
Pitted against one of the greatest
teams Fielding H. Yost ever has
turned out will be the scrappiest little
eleven of gridiron grapplers in the
east. Penn is not figured to win even
among her staunchest supporters, but
figured to give Michigan the battle of
a season. 1t was Penn, fans remem-
Der, which halted Pittsburg's powerful
scoring machine and forced it to the
limit. Likewise 1t was Penn that
downed the sturdy Dartmouth team
after it had run amuck through it's
list Of opponents.
Consequently, there are many who
believe Penn will be able to hold down
the score. 1t will be Howard Berry's
greatest test-likewise PENIS.

The Quakers have won six of the IL
games played; Michigan four and two
have been tie contests.
