DERR SCORES THRICE

TN THE boxing arena its a common
= sight to see knight of the gloved fist
take punch or two to return one but |
how about the chap who keeps on taking
them without the semblance of chance
for slap back? Consider the case of !
Leon Campuzano, p. NJ. C. fullback and |
fighter from the top of his bristly hair |
to the edge of his toenails.
Penn dealt out terrific lacing that
was $40 in figures and red and blue
and black and blue in material The |
Quakers parceled out punishment from
the first kick off to the last tackle on
Saturday against the Pauxtis eleven,
and most of the blows were absorbed by
the Chester Camp and champ
Csmpuzano was the whole works Of
the p. NJ. c. eleven. He made at least
30 per cent of the tackles and he gained
most of the ground made against the
Folwell fighters. He was injured early
in the second period and injured so Sc
verely that the average player would
want to be carried to the dressing room,
but he stayed right in the thick Of the
battle until the timers whistle shrilled
the end of hostilities.
When you see the victory goal just a
short reach beyond, it's not so tough
to stay in and take all the punishment
that's coming your way; but when the
last light of hope has been turned out, it
takes a superman to keep on fighting in
the dark. And Camp never quit.
Penn Looks Better
DEM looked much better on Satur-
L day than a week ago, and it was
not because the military eleven was
no weak. The Quakers were stepping
into their interference better, the tack
ling was surer and altogether a distinct
turn for the better was noticeable.
TIME Red and Blue tore through
l. p. NJ. G. for a total of eight touch
downs, five of which came in the first
half. Ben Derr, who was ripping big
league lines apart three years ago rat
Franklin Field, led in the attack with
three touchdowns. Hobey Light, Joe
Straus, Ray Miller, Rex Wray and Earl
Braun each crossed the Chester goal
line once.
Heine Miller proved that he is a val
Id % l..
chances on goals after Jtouchdowns
through the dprights and over the cross
bar. Joe Straus booted the other goal.
The extra point doesn't count so much
in these days of easy games, but it will
help heaps when the big fellows come
later in the season.
Bert Bell missed two field goals, but
both chances were from hard angles.
Bert has been showing considerable skill
In this department in practice and is
sure to score often with his toe this
year.
Old Stars Make Debut
TOE STRAUS and Eddie Maynard
U who were two of the shining lights
of the 1917 eleven, made their 1919
debut and were hailed with wild acclaim
by the students. Straus started the
game at halfback and showed some of
his tear 'em tactics of two seasons ago,
1t was mainly through the Texans end
running and line plunging that the
Ouakers rolled to their first touchdown.
MAYNARD did not appear until late in
the game. In the fourth period he re-
placed Johnny Titzel at tackle. May
nard is a great lineman and the present
Penn forwards will have to step at
terrific pace to keep him off the first
team.
Pard Pearce, who starred with the
( freshmen two years ago and who used
| 10 quarterback for BY Dickson's navy
foam. also broke into the entertainment
and displayed some fashy football. The
fact is that all the substitutes sent in
by Folwell exhibited a lot of stuff
4 Penn's reserve strength is powerful.
Glass Tells
