Over First Game's Score
By M'LLJS
FRANKLIN1 FIELD, Sept 26.
Everybody knew, ,at least every feml-'
nine rpoter on the stand, it was going
to happen the minute the West Virginia
boys, ducking Ipw, ran out on the field
and showed themselves tp the 4000 crit
ical spectators, who made the flrst foot
ball pilgrimage to Franklin Field.
The panhandle State's gridiron repre
sentatives simply could not win with
those awful mustard-colqred sweaters!
They tried hard, but before many minutes
were up Penn's wiry halfback had caught
a forward pass and made the Urst touch
down. ,
Aiyipugh It was the only score, fem

FRANKLIN FIELD. Sept. 25. Penn
sylvania opened the football season of
1&15 this afternoon, defeating the West
Virginia after a hard-fought battle by
the score of 7 to 0.
With the exception of the first period.
It was an evenly but fiercely fought fight.
The Quakers won because they were able
to hit the West Virginia's defense some
smashing blows the minute they got
possession of the ball.
A march from the middle of the field In
eight plays netted them their only score
at tho very beginning of the game. They
were not again dangerous until the last
minute of play, when Berry's attempt at
a goal from Held was blocked.
West Virginia got over Its attack of
stage fright uhen the second period be
gan and from that time on the fight was
even.
At the same time West Virginia was
unable to gain consistently enough to get
within striking distance of tho Quakers'
goal.
West Virginia, being a new opponent on
the Quakers' schedule, had the Penn
coaches guessing as to its strength
Sol Mctzger, when his team reached the
field, took occasion to allay the Idea that
it was as formidable as predicted.
In particular, Metzger was anxious to
correct the Impression that Chenoweth,
bis quarterback, was tho former Lehigh
star of that name. The two men, how
ever, are cousins.
The West Virginia team was weakened
by the loss of Captain Leathcrwood." The
Virginia's captain was Injured playing
baseball during the summer, and was
unable to start.
Tho first sign of a football team was
the Pennsylvania second eleven which
dashed on the field to the accomparjment
of cheering from the Quaker undergrad
uates. The West Virginia eleven followed
a few minutes later, wearing a mustard
yellow Jersey.
Thoy were royally received by a group
of 100 West Virginia students and the
Pennsylvania undergraduates.
When the Quaker varsity e!eon took
the field they received the full-throated
Pennsylvania cheer, and then the
Btuderits sang a collection of thejr songs
while the two teams went through their
evolutions.
FIRST PERIOD.
West Virginia won the toss and elected
to receive the ball from the east goal.
Ten-minute periods were agreed upon,
Ross kicked off for the Quakers and the
ball rolled to West Virginia's 25-yard line,
