Tho victory over Dartmouth , was a surprise, but It was nothing compared with the result of tho Michigan game. The Wolverines were tho heavy favorites and l'enn was not conceded' any sort of It chance to win. They camo through, however, mainly through tho brilliant play ing of Howard Berry and tho superb defen&o taught by Doctor Wharton. Penn has a peculiar team this year. Looking over tho records of tho big -. ... ......-. ...... ... .. Ej, games it will bo round that tlio ilea ana t. t.tmAnw nf 4Yi t-n.'il linn ntiil liuu m.niln 1 1 .wt rap at the Penn system or anything else simply a statement of facts. Against Pittsburgh Alex AVray caught a forward pass and carried tho ball to tho nine yard line, whero Straus took It over. In tho Dartmouth gamo a penalty gavo Penn tho ball on tho four-yard line, and again a touchdown resulted. Those certainly wcro lucky breaks. Then In tho battle with Michigan It was the Indi vidual work of Berry that won tho game. Tho fullback booted three goals from tho field when tho Wolverine defense stiffened and was holding for downs. A drop-kick usually Is tho last resort In a football game, and I'cnn got away with It. A touchdown was scored, but It was another lucky break. Cleary blocked a punt and fell on the ball over the goal line. Not teamwork, system or unything else was responsible for tho score. In fact, when one studies the Penn team this year the work of Doctor Whar ton looms up bigger than ever. The attack never was able to gain consistently, the team had no final punch, and tho only thing that stood out was tho defense. It might bo said that Berry's drop-kicking was part of tho attack. It wasn't. It was an Individual performance, made possible by the blocking of tho linemen. The forwards played the gamo up to tho highest standard nnd turned back tlio onslaughts of tho foe. In other words, the defensive play In tho Dartmouth and Michigan games was so good that tho other teams couldn't score, and if you can keep a team from making touchdowns It Isn't hard to step In and win games. m DOCTOR, WHAKTOX leaves tonight to enter the Government service. He will be stationed at Norfolk. lie certainly helped l'enn this year and made It possible to recover from the early defeats. Howard Berry and Heinle Miller also will play their last football gamo for tho lied nnd Blue. Immediately ufter the Cornell battle a captain will be elected. Bert Bell is the man for the position. Boynton, of Williams, Made Brilliant Record on the Gridiron BECAUSE ho was stranded up In New England playing with Williams, Benny Boynton, tho nineteen-year-old quarterback, seldom was heard of In theso parts. Tho youngster, however, proved to bo tho sensation of the year and stood out, among the other quarterbacks. His Held generalship could not bo Improved upon, and when ho ran with the ball long gains always resulted. During the season Williams made U'SS yards at rushing the pigskin, and Boynton made S32 of them. The team scored nineteen touchdowns nnd the youngster registered twelve. In addition to that he kicked three goals after touchdowns, which makes htm one of the heaviest scorers of tho year. Boynton also is good at throwing the forward pass. lie shoots the ball straight as a baseball, and his throws aro accurate. He was the principal offense of tho team and most of tho defense. It Is customary for the tiiiarterback to play back on tho defense, but Boynton declined to take a rest. Instead, ho backed up tho lino and tackled all over the field. He made more than one-half of tho tackles for his team and proved to bo invaluable. Williams, by the way, finished the season without defeat, something that hasn't been done before in the thirty-seven years the game has been played. The team was coached by Fred Walker, the former big league pitcher, who played ..under Stagg at Chicago. Walker made good from the start, and his nttack was considered the best In the East. In eight games 77-' yards wore gained on forward passes, or an average of 3CH yards per game. ' This Is pretty good for a light team. At the start Walker had but two veterans on his squad and Jmllt up his team out of green material. It is seldom that a coach makes good his first year, but Walker's record was so brilliant that many of tho larger colleges aro seeking his services for next year. fTlHE first thing Walker did was to R' " sub halfback to quarterback. It to play good football from the start. The first victory was over Cornell, and there was no fluke about It. Boynton Is 0 feet 10 Inches tall, weighs 158 pounds and comes from Texas. Kilbane's Soldier Pupils Make Hit in Exhibition WHEN the Camp Sherman eleven appeared at League Park, In Cleveland, last Saturday for the game against Case and Western Reserve, the football gamo was not the only attraction that kept the largo crowd entertained. An added feature was the boxing exhibition given by Johnny Kllbane, with tho assistance Of his pupils. The gamo was a big thing, hut tho boxing drill, with fifty-sK . Sammces, star pupils of tho featherweight champion, proved to bo as popular as the game Itself. This was the first public appearance of camp boxers, and ;., the work accomplished by tho champion during his brief stay at the Clillllcotho cantonment speaks volumes for his work an an Instructor. The soldiers donned ., the gloves and responded to Kilbane's commands by going through some extremely ' Interesting movements familiar to tho followers of tho roped arena and tho Kll bane rooters In particular. Kilbane's stylo was reflected In his pupils, and It was t easy to detect In the Sammees' swings, footwork, Jabs and other stunts all tho T other features of 'Kilbane's style. The boys went through the various boxing stunts and It resembled a gym- eastlc drill. As soon as tho boys had given a good account of themselves In drill, & Johnny ordered them to tear loose and mix It. Some real lively boxing followed. '"' There was more swinging at League Park than when the Indians faced Walter ', ' Johnson, and tho fans stood up and gavo tho combatants a great hand. Just when some of tho bouts became real heated and somo action was assured an t officer blew a whistle calling quits. KUbano was given a great hand and was :ft ch'eered as enthusiastically as the football gladiators. The Sammees who per- ,.. formed are classed as Johnny's prize pupils. r Thorpe Leads Canton to Win Over Brickleij's Team E&- 11THEN Greek meets Greek thoy open a Ipviv ' , Charlie Brlckloy, the Indian feasted on vv- usi ounuay wnen me canton uunuogs, 1urAUiiln n-iA .. ii.- ....... .. .. -i... . uittooiuuii iiscm 111 inu mat ui u. scuta ui iwo games to ueciue ino professional loot ball championship of tho United States.

Most of the teams have played out their schedules and most of tho stars have been playing football that Is, the list Includes such men ns Ouyon, Ktrupper, Hurley, ollphant. Horry.

And our opinion would bo that neither Is this a tlmo for championship ranking nor the selection of any all-star or ull-sectlonal cast. A Tew Hcasons The reasons aro -fairly sulllcient. nv number ut unlverslt.es, for causes tVia't seemed quite enough from their viewpoint, have discontinued intercollegiate, football. Any number of other, such as Cornell, have Mill'cied extreme losses lu material, due to the demands.of war. Somo haw suffered f r this cause mucli1 more Ulan others.
