PENN TRIUMPHS
OVER CORNELL
Largest Holiday Crowd See
Traditional Rivals
Battle
By TED MEIER

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 25-(R,-
For a time today it looked as
thought Bob Odell and Joe Kane,
Pennsylvania's star halfbacks,
would finish their football career
as goats against PENIS traditional
foe, Cornell.
With a crowd of $4,000 watching.
in warm November sunshine, un-
dergod Cornell capitalized on two
fumbles by Odell and missed tao
kle and a pass interference by
Kane to hold a 1916 halftime lead in
the 5Oth renewal Of their famed
Thanksgiving day classic.
But in the second half, Odel]
and Kane ripped through Cornell's
logged resistance to set up two
touchdowns and a 20 to IA Penn
triumph.
Penn was going nowhere fast
until the middle of the third quar-
ter when Odell caught two passes
from Joe Michaels that developed
off apparent running plays. This
moved the ball to the Cornell q
and inspired a Penn team thai
seemed headed for a third straight
defeat.
From the % the Quakers smash
ed to the Big Red seven before
losing possession when john,
Small, 16-year-old fullback, had t.
leave the field temporarily for {
new pair of pants. Penn got the
bali on the Cornell IA when Wal
Stickel partly blocked Charlie,
Weiss punt. In three cracks Of
tackle, Odell plunged to the sew
en-. Small rushed back into the
game and with Odell running in
reference smacked over from the
one after making first down on the
three.
Penn still trailed by one poin
at 14-13 and the red and blue cause
seemed hopeless when they were
penalized to their one early in the
last quarter. But Kane made {
great catch of Michaels' pass from
behind the goal line for 80 yard.

for the winning touchdown.
Kane's run enabled him to Sc

mark of $40 yards during the 1910
campaign.

South Cardinals Gamecocks shunt

eleven that had been considered as
a possible Orange Bowl partici

today.
Although the Deacons made over
twice as many first downs as the
winners, the Gamecocks perforat.
i, ed the Deacon line, skirted their
ends and dropped telling passes in.
to their secondary to gain the up
per hand.
Wake Forest scored first when
South Cardinals Farress, standing
in his end zone in the second quar-
tel, spilled the ball off the side
of his foot outside the boundary
to his right and behind the goal to
give the Deacons a safety.
| Later in the same period, the
South ,Carolinians generated a.
yard drive topped off by pair
of passes from Williams to Thrash
which were good for "a yards and
score. Thrash's catch of the
second pass among two Wake For
est defenders was masterpiece
of skill and timing. Bradford con-
verted from placement.
The victors scored again in the
third period on an intrepid forward
pass and lateral Buck Williams
shot the ball to Bob Baggott who
caught it on his own As yard line.
Baggott hot-footed it down to Wake
Forests AZ. Cornered there, he
turned and lateralled to Shaw, and
then gave Shaw clearance across
the goal with a blocking that smote
two Deacons out of the way. The
play was good for 70 yards. Brad
ford's attempted conversion was
blocked.

It was fairly apparent that the

But it is from Col. Blair that

frankness. Refusing to take tn e
customary weeplng-willow attitude
Of most football coaches, he ad-
mits he has a good team with
good chance of winning over Navy.
In fact, he can't hide the fact
he's downright proud Of his boys
end their season to date. and he
ucsitively brjstles when any sug-

are his boys, they have worked
hard, done the best they could
under circumstances often unfa-
vorable, and their mistakes have
been natural mistakes brought on
more by pressure Of duties not
connected with football and pre-
venting them from reaching a per-
lection they otherwise might have
attained.
You can't help admiring tn e
man, both for his frankness and
his loyalty to the boys, and we
have a sneaking idea his own size

field the cadets have at least an
even chance-is just about right.
We've seen both teams, the

If Army had real line-pulveriz-

M Ihe Local Theaters
STATE

Performances tonight at the air conditioned theater mark your last opportunity of seeing the new thrill CT "Bomberdier" with Pat O'Brien and Randolph Scott in co-starring leads; also Dennis OKeefe and Louise Allbritten in Good Morn ing Judge.
 Loaded and overrlowing with new comedy situations, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello return to the screen at the State tomorrow in their new est laugh riot Hit the Ice".
 Hit the Ice" is decidedly the fun niest in which the two champion comics have appeared and has an all-out action plot and a group of skilled performers. Ginny Simms, outstanding radio star, heads the supporting cast, which includes Patricia Knowles, Elyse Knox and Marc Lawrence. A special musical attraction is the appearance of Johnny Long and his orchestra.
 Bud and Lou are seen as candid camera photographers. Knowles portrays a doctor romantically in- clined toward Miss Knox who ap- pears as a trained nurse. Miss Simms and the Long orchestra are entertainers in novel resort where much Of the story's surprising ac- tion takes place.
 Other backgrounds for the pie lures hilarious plot includes a hos pital, a sWank mountain hideaway and bank. It is in the latter in- stitution where the candid camera boys secure photographs of an ex- citing robbery. Possessing nega- tives which identify the yeggs. the two lads are in dire peril until Cos tello reverses the situation with & stroke of ingenious heroism He becomes a human snowball which overwhelm the crooks.
 Four attractive songs are pre- sented by Ginny Simms to the ac- compartment of the Johnny Long orchestra. The numbers, T Like a Fish Out of Water" Happiness Bound,' I'd Like to Set You to Music" and Slap Polka" were composed by the tunesmith team of Harry Revel and Paul Francis Web- Ster.
 All in all Hit the Ice" is one picture that should be seen by everyone as it is the funniest in the careers of Abbott and Costello.
 Sherlock Holmes in Washing ton" tantalizing mystery story will be the second hit of tomorrow's new show and presents Basil Rath- bone as Sherlock and Nigel Bruce in a co-starring role as Doctor Wat son.
 Holmes, it is said, confrontS his most cunning and desperate ad- versary in the new film, based on the characters created by Sir Ar thur Conan Doyle.
