IN the second, sent Glenn Warmers
Panthers back home with a joyous
victory, while just to help the cause
lAelong Capt Tom Davies kicked goal
after each touchdown.
= Davies, Hewitt, HoHeran and An
aderson each went over the goal line,
showing the versatility Of the Pitt
back field, which crushed and battered
Penn in the first half. but was STOPPED
in the last thirty minutes Of play.
.. Man power of the Pitt team was too
much for the Red and Blue Tho Heis-
.unan pupils fought every inch Of the way.
sbut could not stop the big Panther.
Penn had several chances to score. but
each time the team either lacked the
bunch or Pitt backs Intercepted forward
passes which looked like sure touch
downs. One Of these came early In the
ssthird period when Foley. new right
lend subbing for Ertresvaag. fumbied
TEX Hamer's long pass back OF the goal
ssline. All that Foley had to do was to
mold on to the bali for touchdown.

touchdown, Davies going over on

Its triumphant march, and when BIZ

procession to the west goal with Tom
Hewitt, the 1913 pound fullback, as the
r.rbattering ram. Finally Hewitt with a

= Early in the second period, with the
entire Pitt backfield working on all fom
sscylinders, a forward pass. Davies to

back Holleran intercepted 1t five yards
from the goal line and never stopped
until he had sprinted sixty-ffve yards.
On the next play Anderson circ1ed left

touchdown.
During tho third period Hewitt the
Pitt fullback, was injured. when he

his place and gained considerably.
With only . few minutes left to play
Davies and Johnny Thurman started to
punch away at each other In midfield
and both were ruled out.
Miller sturt for Penn.
The outstanding star In renn's defeat
was Pos Miller, who made virtually all
the worthwhile tackles. But for the
defensive play of the Lebanon youth

q spectacular game but was hooted late
in the second period when he made an
unnecessarily rough tackle of little Rex

triumph, as was shown by It's gaining
800 yards to PENIS So. From straight
scrimmage the Panthers gained 22 first
downs 10 Penn's 5. The lineup:
