By EDWIN .1. POLLOCK
PENNSYLVANIA "us Pennsylvania
at its best yesterday. All tlie power
that's been tlormunt In earlier battles
showTcT Itself In tlic terrific attack of
the Red and Blue, and Cornell was car
ried In the swing of the Quaker drive
Into a 21-0 defeat in the final fracas
of the season on Kianklln Field.
It was a triumph in which every
member of the Folwetl machine shared,
Each did his part better than ever be
fore, but it was a personal victory for
Bert Hell, leader of the sons of Old
Penn and one of the Ramcst quarter
backs ever to sftp on the green of the
Franklin Field gridiron.
His nose swollen to twice its normal
size, his lips battered and puffed nrid
his eyes blackened, Hell was at once a
picture of despair and happiney an he
stepped from the jlressijig loom of
Veixutinan Hnll for the last time m n
member of a Quaker football team.
Victory Llsht ,
HI battered face was pitiable, but
In his eyes there shone a light that comes
only when the final coal has been
reached. No sooner had he stepped out-1
side than he was showered with hand
shakes and backslaps from his friends.
It was his team that beat Cornell and
beat 'cm bad, and Bert Hell was the
happiest collegian ju ten states.
Just a few feet away, with his eyes
blinking suspiciously, stood John C.
Bell, father of the Penn eaptaiu, who
was afootball star back in the eighties.
Bert's victory was his victory, and he
was the happiest dad in ten states.
Hell didn't share, in any of I'cnu's
cores. When the chance came for a
touchdown ho elected to let some one
lse get tho glory. Hut yet Bert
Bell had considerable to do with the
trimming of the Ithncans. He ran the
ball as he never did before. He tore
off gains of live, ten and fifteen yards
,. Consistently. At one time he carried
the ball three times in succession and
made almost twenty-live yards in all.
And, furthermore, he ran bis team
faultlessly.
Farewell for Many
It was tho farowell game not only of
1010 but of all time for seven others
of those who started the engagement
for Penn besides Hell. They are Heine
Miller, an cud who ranks among the
greatest ; Hobey Light, one of the best
hulfbacks ever developed at Penn ; John
Titzcl and Lew Little, two sturdy and
swift tackles; Jim Neylou, a hard
working and leliablu guard; Luil Wray,
a cousistcu center, sure on snapping
and deadly on the defense, nuil Joe
Straus, a line-tearing half. All plaved
good bootball for the Hcd and Blue. '
Bud Hopper, one of the regulars. Who
will return ; Heine Miller, Hobev Light
and B'tts Brunei- did nil the scoring for
the Quakers. Hopper, Light and Mil
ler tallied touchdowns in the order
' nameu, and Bruner contributed a neat
field goal from the ITi-janl line and
three goals fioni touchdowns.
Cornell came here prepared to de
feat 'Penn on forward passes and, in
stead, lost on forward passed. Two of
the three Quaker touchdowns enme on
aerial tosses.
It was in the second period that the
Folwcll fighters first broke into the
scoring. The ball was advanced to the
12-jard line and a toss from Bell to
Hopper sent tho ball over the line. In
the fourth quarter Heine Miller
snatched an eighteen-yard heave from
Bell and sprinted live yards to tlie
fltliacnu goal.
HeadworU Results
Tho second touchdown scored by Cap
tain Bell's eleven was the result ol
some neat hqadwork by the Quakers.
Bell had missed a field goal from mid-1
field, the ball hitting the 15-yard mark
and rolling to the 7-yard line. Hero
several Penn men and Shiverick stood
watching. Shiverick was pushed on
the ball and then Hopper fell on it on
the fi-jard line. It took four plays to
get the ball over, Hobey Light finally
scoring on an end run. .
The advanectope concerning Cornell's
line proved true. Jimmy Mimns has
turned out a splendid first defense for
the Red nud White. The Ithacan line
men often allowed Fcnn backs to slip
through when the ball was between
two 20-vard lines, but once the goal
was threatened. It tightened and thrice
turned back the Quakers when they
were almost treading on the goal line.
Twice the Red and Blue was as close
as the 1-yard mark, only to lose tlie
hnll on downs'. In the. third quarter.
with the oval on the 10-yard line, Joe
Straus plunged through for nine yards,
but then was stopped flat on his next
three tries.
Joe Straus Makes Good
Here a wore about Straus would be
apropos. The Texan began his first
game of the season and put up a great
exhibition. Ho Showed all the fierceness
In his drives which made htm a star
two years ago. It was nothing to see
hira'punch the first defense for five and
ten yards nt a crack and on the de
fense hq showed better than ever.
The Red and Blue ended the season
jvlth lx, victories, two defeats and one
tic. The year will be considered a suc
cess In a football way because Cornell
was beaten and Pittsburgh tied, but it
did not contain the glory that It was
believed it would. Games were lost
to Dartmouth and State, and those de
feats took most of the eclat.
Financially Penn never has had a
better season. It has been estimated
that close to 17C.O0O persons have seen

Cornell Outgamed
A glance through the statistics will
show how clearly Cornell was oiit-
pluyed. The Red and Blue gained 'JO J
Minis from senmmucc. us uk"'i "
Cornell. The Quakers made sixteen
first downs, while only two were cred
ited to the Ithacans.
Bell tried eleven forward passes and
n half dozen of them were completed.
Only one grounded, but Rush's men in
tercepted four. The aerlnl attack netted
Petln n total gain of 05 yards.
Cornell tried fifteen tosses and only
two of them were successful. A full
dozen of them were grounded and one
intercepted. On tho two completed
pnsscs, the Ithacans advanced twenty
5'lBots Bruner, who did the punting for
Penn until he wa, taken out in the
fourth period, outkicked the famed
Shiverick, the Cornell captain. Bow
punted nine times for an average of -lo
yards and Sam Kllis got off two punts
of 35 yards each. Shiverick was
forced to kick more often, booting
eleven times for an average of 42 yards.
Shiverick Smothered
n'lio I'nnn .mls and tackles completely
smotheictl Shiverick when the Quakers
punted and Fritz could run back only
eighteen yards. His punts were run
back for a total of 78 yards, the longest
return being US yards by Ilex Wray,
the midget quarterback.
Besides the regulars several of the
substitutes also played their last game
for tho Red and Blue. Alex Wray,
Sam Kllis, Kllie Slayuard, Shorty
Braun und Ray Miller were in their
final game for the Quakers, and every
one of them played well.

Bezdek and Dreyfus Stall
Pittsburgh. Nov.-2S. Birney Dreyfuan
says he haa not engaged any manager for
1020 When ft question wan put to htm
he would not ewy that Huo Hesdek. who
bossed tho rtratee In ,1010, had been re
leased, lie' merely said hla contract had
expired.
It i believed here that both Drey'u and
Itezdok are watting for trie other to make
the first-, move, and that State's -tactician
may set his baseball portfolio back after all.
A number of the local Independent
footbnll teams plajed their finnl gages
of the season yesterday nnd the ver
dict of the gridiron sport season is
thnt it wi j the most successful in the
history of the independent clubs. Tlie
turnouts hue been unusually large, and
such interest hns been manifest that in
some Instances it lias been decided to
extend the season at least n couple of
weeks. All of yesterday's games were
attended by record-breaking crowds.
Ilolmcsburg concluded n most suc
cessful schedule bv defeating the
Thomas A. C. of Bethlehem, by the
score of 7 to 0, the fleet-footed Dick
Diamond scoring the ouly touchdown
in tlie first quarter, while McKissick
kicked the goal. The Thomas aggrega
tion is noted for its wide-open style i
ot play, nut even .lop steplmuik ami
his forward passes were intercepted l$ I
cither Oaston or Diamond.
The intersectioual clashes were i i
nierous. In fact, the majority of game-
were of this character and they were
all hard fought. One of the most im
portant in this class was the clash be
tween East Falls and East Falls Y. M.
A., played on the Northeast High Sohoul
field. Kadi side was eonlident It was
the better club und had plenty of lv.'it
ers of the same opinion nnd they ill
left with convictions unchanged, as the
final score was 0-0.
Frankford and Kuing came together
on Community Field lo settle forim-r
tcoreless tic nud Frankford won by th"
score of 8 to 7. gaining tlie decision
in the last few minutes of play. River
side annexed the title of champion
of South Jersey by swamping Emerson,
of Camden, on the latter's grounds,
25-0.
All the Delaware river shipyards were
in action. Merchant Ship was defeatel
by New York Ship. 0-0, and the Cam
denites claim the title. Chester Ship
journeyed to Norristown and held the
former Billiken cleM-u scoreless for
three periods and then weakened at tho
finish and allowed 21 points to be regis
tired against tliem. Sun Ship .tn.l
Fifth Ward clashed lu Chester und Fifth
Ward won, l"-0.
The much-mooted question of whether
Vineome is superior tA Paschall wai
decided in the affirmative when Man
ager MacDouuld's aggregation gained
a 10-0 decision at Hilldalc Park in
Darby. (Jault and Stephens played a
conspicuous part in the victory and took
a prominent part in the facoring of all
three touchdowns.
