"pittsburgh has n remarkable team

auring his undergraduate days against
A.. parthers. "To say they have a
,ood team would be putting It mildly.
Tbey have just what said-n re-
markable team. With. ,r ,a
two of the best backs In the East to-

narts and can do everything that n

of the grldiron sport.

rorthies OF the past on Franklin Field.
ato;n of course. is the ever capable,

Syracuse he showed all the power that
no has. He played we'll at end during
,hs fore part of the scason, but center
is his logical place, as he proved to
some thousands out in Smoketown on
Saturday.
