victory.

Haws carried the ball over and kicked
the goal.
Both teams put up an exceedingly
stiff defense. Lower Merion's defense

ball get their first chance this after
noon to size up for themselves Glen
Warmers 1919 football machine. as it
lines up against the strong husky West
Virginia mountaineers at Forbes Field.
Enthusiasm such rs that of today has
not rcignCd here before on the season $
opening day and was very much in cvi-
dcnce as the faithful clans began to
wend their way toward the field for the
battle. Indications pointed to a royal
welcome for the Panthers and their
much touted opponents from the wildS
of West Virginia.
The Pitts present their strongest
possible front today and are out to show
their followers that they are still cap
able of putting up a fine article of
football, even if they are not generally
credited with being so strong as in the
past. With Jim Morrow in the line. up
at fullback, and with Lou Mervis an
parently recovered and in good physical
condition, the Panthers will present a
much stronger front against the in
vaderS from Morgantown than they did
against Geneva week ago.
The Pitt line may not be the great %
est in history, but with Stein at center,
Mclean and Bond at the guards, Mcrvis
and Herman at the tackles. and Ewing
and McCracken at the ends, it looks
like hard proposition to buck against,
and the Mountaineers will not find il
crumbling easily.
Pitts flying squadron" will be in
action behind the line, with Captain
Dehart at quarterback, Tom Davies aud
Sandy Hastings at the halves, and Jim
Morrow at fullback. What more could
