 New York, Nov. 25.--An arouseI Quaker refusee to crawl into a storm cellar although an Ithican tornado Is sweeping down on Philadelphia. Steeped in victory the eleven of Pennsylvania expects to turn the big| wind of Cornell, which for three sea sons swept away all opposition, into| aharmless zephyr when the football| teams of the two universities clash on Franklin field Thanksgiving Day in their 3lst annual struggle.
 Penn, perhaps, has reason to am ticipate day of glorious revenge at the hands of Gil Dobie's excellent combination in 1921. 1929 and 1923,| for 1t remains~ undefeated this year. the only stain upon its record being tie game with Penn State when| both teams went scoreless. The Penn1 sylvanians have 22 victories to show1 for tho long series between the ri l vals and seven defeats. One battle| was fought 10 a tie.
 But Cornell, despite losses to Rut1 I gers, Williams and Dartmouth, id recognized as having a combination of power which may be uncovered at any moment. 1slay, Molinet, Pat1 terson, Wester and Whitestone carl ry every threat known to the grid Il Iron and are experts at the rushing game. Dartmouth conquered thid quintet by employing the forward pass to score two winning touch1 downs in the final period of the re 1 cent Polo Grounds meeting afted Wester and Molnet had torn thd Green line and circled the ends fod II points, aided by Whetstones ac1 curate toe.
 If Penn is forced to rcstort to thl air to offset the rushing tactics oI the Ithacans, its success might well be much smaller than Dartmouth's s| for Lou Young's eleven has not been overwhelming opponents in it's gamed up to this time. Penn has been vicl torious, but not by appreciable mari gins. three of its conquests having been won by three points.
 From present indications thI teams will meet with practically their entire first line forces avail able. Enid Thomas, regular quarter back prior to the Lafayette con| test, undoubtedly will be on the side| lines when the Philadelphians takI the field, but his successor, Jo! Laird, has proved a brilliant field leader and is considered capable o| wagng strong battle against th| Ithacas Captain Req McGraw is powerful backneld man and the tol of Albert Kruez has lifted his tean from many difficulties this sea olI Only McGraw will be lost by graduI ation.
 A victory for the PhiladelphianI will place them on the topmost runi ! of the eastern football ladder by vilT tue of longer schedule than Dart mouths Defeat will leave only tNl leading teams in this section .nnconl quered. Dartmouth and Yale, bo' of which have been tied.
