II was In the Columbia game OF 1890
that he showed for the first time in
public what lot Of ginger and energy
was bottled UP within him. Things
were going too slow for the Penn
sylvania team. The game lacked the
drive and vim that should have ac-
the chorus, and suddenly
Whitehill was injected into the pro-
ceedings to awaken the players and
the spectators. He succeeded admir-
ably. The Red and Blue aroused itself
and became a smoking cauidron. They
let loose an attack on the Columbia
team which depressed whatever en-.
thusiasm Columbia had experienced
prior to the advent OF whitehill, and
the finish Of the affair was more or
less a foregone conclusion after he
had displayed his wares.

What Pennsylvania needs this year

sary to proffer advice on that point,
because It Is one of those self. evident
propositions of which the man on the
sideline does not make a great and
brilliant discovery.
Greenawait and Ertesvaag. both Of
whom played with the Quakers In
1920, are to be the 1891 class, and
there is no doubt that they will get
on. As both are ends In the making
1t Is fairly In evidence that the end
play OF the eleven will not suffer, II
the volunteers come through as they
are naturally expected to do after
their promising display last year.

did not fall to Pennsylvania In the
spring because spring practice was
not undertaken.
Some curiosity has been expressed
as to whether there is likely TO result |
any conflict Of opinion between the
head coach and the coaches TO be as
sociated with him. It 10 true that In |
1920 there was not always loud and |
clamorous applause from the gallery |

aeisman to INTRODUCES his regime at |

Had there been a reverse In the Co.
umbia game, which was played In |
New York. there would almost have 1
been disposition to hold q caucus /
prior to the Cornell game and see II /
aeisman could not be induced to try
plans other than those upon which /

vas victory for Pennsyivania on the
Polo Grounds and the coach went on
n his own way and got his team in
! fair condition to defeat Cornell on

played by Cornell, but II was better

by some Pennsylvania
men after the nonsuccess OF the Red

Pennsylvania can always account
