FOOTBALL scores served the puohc
on Saturday contained no relish for
PENNSYLVANIA. aside from the figures
turned out by the Quaker machine
against V. NJ. I. Here are some results
that added few gray hairs to John
Hcisman's scattered locks:
Pittsburgh, 35; Syracuse, 0.
Lafayette, %; FOrtiham, Z.
Dartmouth, 81; Columbia, 7.
Cornell, 81; Colgate, Z.
The winners form the quartet that
is throwing menacing shadow over
the remainder Of the Red and Blue
football season. Penn now faces the
most difficult part Of the 1927 schedule.
Looming dangerously at the end of
this week is Pittsburgh. a. team that
apparently has just reached it's full
strength. Following is Lafayette, the
only eleven that has successfully turned
back the Panthcrs. Then comes the
game in New York against Dartmouth,
an aggregation that, despite the nb-
sence of stars, is good enough to run up
81 points against Columbia. and, as
usual, the campaign will end with the
fray against Cornell, whose triumph
over Colgate was more impressive than
the Hamilton eleven.
Must Watch Davies
The one-sidrd victory turned in by
fltt was one of the numerous surprises
on Saturdays slate. Warmers nth e
letes ran wild against the Orange, got
the jump in the first period with pair
OF touchdowns and was never in dan
ger. The score might have been even
larger, but Il flock of substitutes were
sent in in the final period. In other
words, Pitt won, pulled up. at 35 to 0.
Three of the five touchdowns were
made personally by Tom Davies, and
the wee Panther back is sure to be q
thorn in the side of the Quakers next
saturday. The entire backfield showed
splendid improvement over their play
In previous games. and with Herb Stein

through Fordhnm in New York. This
former Kiski line cracker tore off gain
after gain through the first defense OF
the opposition. Coach Sutherland :
team used only straight football in gath
ering three touchdowns In the first
quarter. The fourth tally came in the
final period.
Lafayette Line Crossed
Fordham scored on the EaStonians in
the last quarter, but the tally WASH
made on rushing the ball from scrim
mage formation. Myers intercepted q
forward pass and ran 60 yards for q
touchdown. 1t was only the second
time this season that the Lafayette
goal line has been crossed. Bucknel
gained the first touchdown against tn,
Maroon on October 10.
Captain Jim Robertson. who unqucs
tionably is one Of the best backs in the
country, was out OF the Dartmouth
lineup. and yet the big Green team
was able to get four touchdowns ant
field goal against Columbia. Sieg
fried booted the field goal from the 30
yard line, and also kicked the four goals
after touchdowns. His kicking vii
have something to d" with the result
of the Penn game, and then, too, jim
Robertson probably will be able to get
into the fray.
Colgate threw a scare into Cornell ir
the opening period BY getting away foI
a touchdown on n trick play, but the
advantage did not stay long with the
Hamilton collcgians. The figures were
tied before the period was over. ant
three tOuChdowna were scored in the re.
naming quarters. Hanson also cam,
through with field goal. Munns. Ram.
scy, Lechlcr and Kaw were the ones
who crossed tn" Colgate goal. For.
ward passes played a prominent part
in the Ithacan victory. and It is thi'
method of attack that Penn will have
to watch.
Princeton Outclassed
PrincetOn's margin of victory ovel
Colgate was 1910, which makes Cor
nell look better than ROper's athletes
II comparative scores count for any
thing. The Tigers looked good against
Colgate three weeks ago. but 1t was a
different story against Chicago on Sat
urday.
Alonzo Stages famous open game
and amazing trick plays never mate
rialized in the battle at TigertOwn. but
they never were needed. Chicago beat
Princeton on straight football, 90, and
the score should have been larger. The
Westerners were Mt least three touch
downs better than the Orange and
Black, according to the respective play
of the two elevens on Saturday. There
was nothing to it but Chicago.
