PAINTERS RALLY
L|CKS PENN STATE
Go Through Season Without
Loss-CoIgate Wins-Penn
UpSets Cornell.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n YEW YORK, November 29.-The
N mythical Eastern foot ball
championship has fallen into
4 the hands of Pittsburgh'S
mighty Panther array, with
Colgate only step behind.
With big Tom Parkinson as bat
tering ram, the Partners crunched
their way through strong and battling
Penn State line yesterday to wind up
tied in nine games. While the PantherS
were coming from behind to trounce
the Nittany Lions from State Col
lege, heavy and brainy Colgate eleven
was giving Brown a terrifhc beating,
80 to 0, to end the campaign with only
one defeat on its record-that by Wis
consin of the Western Conference in
an early season game.
So far as the records go, these two
games were the standoutS in an inter-
eSting and spectacular Thanksgiving
day Of foot ball, in which Penn sur
prised Cornell, with a TT win; Car
neigie Tech ended the New York Uni
versity jinx with a 20-to-O victory,
and Syracuse noSed out Columbia by
single touchdown, 60.
Penn State stopped Toby Uansa, Pitts
ail-American halfback candidate, dead,
but the Nittany Lions could not halt
fullback scored all three of Pitts touch
downs and kicked both of the extra
points.
A pass, French to Stanley, and a
successful try for point gave Penn State
7-6 lead which it held through the
second period, but Parkinson got busy
in the second half and the game was
won and lost.
Colgate Backs Star.
Tommy Bowler and Les Hart, Col
gate backf1eld stars, ran Brown dizzy
and the MaroonS won almost as they
pleased, recording their first victory
over Brown in 10 years.
"A 102-yard run from kickoff for a
touchdown by Dick Gentle furnished
Penn with the impetus it needed to
sweep aside the Red team from Cornell,
beaten only by Dartmouth previously.
Gentle'S run enabled the Quakers to tie
the score at TT after Cornell had led
10 throughout the first half. There
after Gentle and Walter Masters ran
Cornell ragged to score another touch
down in the third period and q field
goal by Masters in the fourth.
Syracuse waited until the final period
to score its win over Columbia. Through
three periods. Columbia battled the
Orange f1ercely and STAYED off all Scor-
ing threats, but the Syracuse offensive
finally began to click, and Warren
Stevens carried the ball across the Lions
goal as the climax Of q 49-yard march
down the field.
Passes Bafle N. Y. u.
A barrage Of forward passes so discon-
certed New York University that it never
really got started against Carnegie. The
TartanS from Pittsburgh tailed two
touchdownS in the first period and an
other In the last to beat the VioletS for
the first time. The passes and the
fumbleS about matched one another.
There were Is fumbleS, seven by Car
negie, but the Scotch made up for this
with Is completed passes.
In the other outstanding games Of the
day Clark Hinkle, Bucknell fullback
supplanted Al Marsters as the sectional
scoring leader by tallying so points as
his team Swamped Dickinson, 1870:
West Virginia surprised the experts with
60 triumph over Washington and JET
ferson, Western Maryland recorded its
tenth successive victory with a 10 win
over Muhlenberg.
Maryland waited until the second half
to pile up most Of the 80 points it tai
lied against Johns Hopkins 8, Davis and
ElkinS another unbeaten team, trounced
Salem, 81 to 6, and Gettysburg, by vir-
tue of $50 verdict over Franklin and
Marshall, won the Eastern Pennsylvania
intercollegiate Conference champion
ship.
Rider, unbeaten but tied, earned an
easy 27-0 victory over an all-Coast
Guard team.
