TVIth the exception that two rather
outdid themselves, ftll tho big football
teams ployed up to form on Saturday.
Tho two most Important games of the
day were Pennsylvania vs. Michigan and
Harvard vs. Princeton. Virtually every
crltlo nliO' had been following tho work
of these four teams at close range and
was able to form an unbiased estimate
of their strength believed that Michigan
would beat Pennsylvania and that Har
vard would win from Princeton, nut not
veil paftlsan supporters expected tho
winning learns to triumph In such an
overwhelming manner. Michigan's 31-3
victory over Pennsylvania was not only
the worst boating tho Wolverines over
gave the Quakers, but tho largest score
over made in the serlos. Similarly Har
vard's 20-0 score was tho most dcclslvo
tho Crimson ever gave tho Orango and
Slack.
6uch ono-slded games do not admit of
A very detailed analysis. Boaten teams
seldom havo much of an argument with
their victors, ond In these two games
tho superiority of tho winners Sva3 so
pronounced that no study of tho play
can lead to nny opinion otlier than that
tho two beaten teams wero absolutely
outclassed,
Harvard's decisive victory following tho
triumph of a week before over Michigan
gives the Crimson first placo among tho
"Big Six." Harvard Is now tho only
team In thlB group which has not been
beaten. Dartmouth and Yalo rank second
and third, with Princeton fourth and Cor
nell and Pennsylvania fifth and sixth.
Tho way the teams now compare Is
shown by the following statistics:

Superiority In virtually every department of
tho game marked Michigan's play ngalnst
Pennsylvania. Tho Wolverines broko up the
defense -which before this gamo had enabled
Pennsylvania to hold down the scores against
her to the lowest total. Michigan overcame
It not so much by nheer weight and strength
as by a versatile attack befora which any de
fense must crumble. The rout started when
Michigan began to operate a forward pas;
which Pennsylvania not only couldn't stop, but
was powerless to solve even after having seen
It operated. A few well operatod forward
canes, such oa the two by which Michigan
scored her first touchdowns, will weaken any
dofenae by causing It to spread out and back
tip. Then with the Pennsylvania defense pulled
npart. watching for moro or tnese aeaaiy i
passes, u was an easy mauer tor miciiikm iu
send Into the line Maulbotsch, who can per
forate any lino over put together.
Coach Yost showed his versatility as a foot
ball Instructor by having the same team play
tiw.,An, atvla nf tnmi nn successive
tuturdays and outplaying his opponents with
both, although he did lose to Harvard.
Against tho Crimson the Michigan team played
straight football of the line-smashing type,
anil most of the critics Insisted that had Mich
igan not made mistakes the Wolverines would
have beaten (Harvard 10-T. Against Pennsyl
x,nin iM4iiio4nn iifiAfi a radically different at
tack, and wWle always having Maulbetsch In
'reserve as a battering ram, really beat the
Quakers with new brand of the forward pass.
Against tho Quakers the Wolverines used a
combination lateral forward pass from a for
mation from which all sorts of plays were
possible. Ths play had Pennsylvania up In tho
air after it had scored twice. While It would
not bo correct to say that the Pennsylvania
team gave up at this Juncture, for they were
ruining lust as gamely at the nnleh-s at
the start, they never had a chance to be
come steadied ahd solve Michigan'; attack.
Pennsylvania' attack failed utterly, for
with the exception of the first few minutes
of the Initial period, when, they scored with
nA vaaI and fn tlie rlo.lnr minutes of the
Sourth quarter, when they had the ball on I
Ilahigan'a 2.lTVsrd line as the game ended.
tne Quakers hadn't a cnance to cross aucni
gan'a gosl line Nearly all the remainder of
the afternoon Michigan had possession of the
ball and was pounding away at Pennsylvania's
gTr.e result was a bitter disappointment to
Pennsylvania, men, even to those who havo
nut allowed themselves to be deluded as to
ths resl strength of this year's team. It Is
never a disgrace to be beaten by Michigan,
especially by such a maohlne as Tost has
built up this year. The Quakers still havo
s. margin over their Western rivals In ths
series tn date Of the ten games already
rlaved Pennsylvania has won Ave, Michigan
four and one was a 0-0 tie. There has al
ready bun honor enough for both universities.
But just ndw every Pennsylvania man will
be wanting to know how this game has affected
the team's chances In the two remaining games
with Dartmouth and Cornell. There Isn't much
comfort to be extracted from what Dartmouth
end Cornell did on Saturday, and to win from

prove tremendously In the next few day or
her rivals will havo to slump fearfully. About
all that can be said now is that Pennsylvania
has a fighting chance. Dartmouth bfat Tufts
by the score of 03 to 0. And this is the same
Tufts team that held Harvard to a score ot
13-0. It Is true that Tufts has been going
down hill for the last few weeks, but Dart
mouth Is evidently every bit as strong as a
year ago. which Isn't very reassuring when
wo recall what happened then on franklin
Field. Tho Cornell team also has the advan
tage In comparative scores. The Ithacan beat
Franklin and Marshall by the score of 20-8,
the same team that defeated Pennsylvania
four weeks before by the score of 10-0. The
Lancaster collegians showed some of the dash
that enabled them to beat ths Quakers, but
all It netted them was a goal from Held. Dart
mouth comes here next Saturday and Cornell
on Than.kglvlng Day. And to get ready for
them tho Quakers must work overtime.
'A good many Pennsjlvanla men will prob
ably be In a, critical frame of mind as a result
of the Michigan slaughter because the average
college man has a. disproportionate sense or
the Importance of victory and do'eat. The
worst possible thing that could happen to uie
team now would bo criticism. The team I;
mads up of typical Pennsylvania, students, but
most of them are inexperienced football play
ers. It should bo remembered that of the elev
en younr men who lined up against Michigan
eight were playing their first championship
game for the Quakers. This Is a fearful han
dicap, and whether they win or lose In tne
two remaining games they will certainly do
better than they did against Michigan.

hn the favorite for the Tale
game two weeks hence, Just as Tale will
probably be a favorite over Princeton on
Saturday. As tho reiu t of n yery careful
study of tho detailed play In all of Prince
ton's previous games, the writer has con
tended that the Tigers were greatly over
rated and that they lacked a consistent scor
Ing attack. It Is not unfair to Princeton
to refer to the fact that errors by the lr op
ponents really saved the Tlgcrr from defeat
on two or three occasions. Harvard not only
hail a consistent rushing and running at
fi hm refined to make errors whlcn
Princeton might convert. Into scores.
It Is worthy of noto that Harvard's offense
was almost the same as that oil year ago.
The forward pass played Practically no part
In It Out there was power to the Crimson s
rushing and running attack; there i was always
good interference for runners, and even with
out Brickley there was a suro drop-klcker
In Mahan to boot ths ball over with a tool
from field when It was required. The writer
Mill maintains that Mahan Is practically as
good a drop-klcker as Brickley himself, and.
as has been mentioned before, the only reason
ho didn't shine as brilliantly In this depart
ment a year ago was, because of DrlcWerj
seniority. It is hard to see In what respect
Harvard's backflcld has been weakened even
by the loss of Brickley.
Princeton's lack of a scoring play was a
great disappointment to the Tfrer followers.
All year the college world has been kept In
an expectant mood by reportB of "hat Prince
ton was to accomplish through the combina
tion of the best features of the English and
Canadian rugby passing games and the Amer
ican game taught by Donald O. Herring, who
after graduating from Princeton, played on
tho Oxford ruby team, and "Uummy" RKtef.
who similarly played Canadian rugby. But
Harvard's defense completely broke up every
thing of this sort that the Tigers tried. Just
to show how useless this open game was to
Princeton attention may be called to the fact
that the Tigers were successful with only one
forward pais and the "lateral" Passing game
from which so much was exported, netted but
one yard.
The game uncovered a new star of the first
. ,,.., fr iinnmrd in Francke. who
played fullback. It was feared 'or a Urn
that It might be necessary to bring Hardwlck
back from end to his old poaitonat halfback,
which would have weakened the line. But
Frnncke proved to bo one of the best stround
gainers on tho team, and since Hardwlck is
one of the few who can advance the ball,
either running from his position i or play ng
halfback on offense, this disposition of the
men in reality strengthens tlio Crimson or.
attack aa well as on defense. Yale merf might
as well moke up their minds to the fact that
they will find Harvard Just aa hard to beat
thli year as last year. The Ells' chances
will depend up on the advanco they themselves
have made over last year.. . , ...
Yola didn't show the Improvement In the
Brown game that , waa expected from the
minner n which the team slaughtered Col
gale the week before. Since Cornell, whoee
tenm wr-s beaten by Colgate, amply toped
with Brown, the only conclusion Is that Yale
Is plaj lng an In-and-out game. At the same
tlmo the analysis of the play shows that Yale
had a more pronounced advantage than the
score shows. Next Saturday Brown Mays
Harvard, while Yale tackles Princeton. These
two games will give us tho best line on the
pemoaratlve strength of the Crimson and the

have a iiwerful team, for they beat Bwarth
more and Haverford and made Cornell .tight.
Comparing Cornell and Michigan. It looks as
though tho Ithacans have a running attack
comparable with that of the Wolverines, but
they must find a way to break up Michigan's
forward passes.
There were some surprising results In ths
games of tho minor colleges. Lehlrh showed
a great deal of unexpected power by beating
Penn Stats, though two of their touchdowns
came as the result of fumbles and the remain
ing six points as the result ot two field goals

has sustained this season. Pittsburgh and

ball season, as far as Interest in the western
end of ths State is concerned, and Bob Fol

narrow margin of 18 to 10.
to witness Dillon's maldsn light-heavyweight
effort at the Olympla torlgbt. And. oh, what
a merry whirl It should be with Welnert forc
ing matters!
Cornell University's cross-country team this
year Is a most wonderfully balanced squad.
The manner In which Its representatives have
waded through the ranks of collegiate oppo
nents Jins been remarkable. When Harvard
athletes met the hill and dale men from Ithaca,
October 81, they were treated to the surprise
of their lives, a the Ithacans made a perfect
team score. Last Saturday Pennsylvania like
wise fell a victim to the big "C" wearers,
the latter netting the second oil an sweep ot
the season.

OFFICIALS NOT ASSISTED
Tennis Flayers Cannot Be Banged
Without Bending; in Records.
Th work of th Lawn Tennis Committee,
composed of Frederick C. Inman, chairman;
Walter L. Pate, secretary, and Walter Merrill
Hall, has been greatly handicapped because
ot the failure of the players throughout the
country to respond to the call ot their tour
nament records. Lex than 100 of the regular
tournament competitor tn tbla country nave
lent In their records to the secretary. More
than 600 blank, and letter have been sent
out In th last three months. Of the small
number who have replied to the committee
many hay omitted the scores of their matches.
Among those whose records have not been
sent In are a number of Philadelphia experts.
