Numbers Next Week
According toieno of the athletic
officials of the University of Penn
sylvania, the lack of numbers for
the corps of substitutes sent Inte
the game en Saturday was net due
te a desire te co back te the old no
number system, but te the non
appearance of all the Jerseys ordered.
They will be en hand this week
and will be distributed te the squad
in time for the came this coming
Saturday.
Considerable confusion occurred
when the substitutes went into the
game for the scribes and fans alike
who wcre armed with n neat
appearing program that did net
mean anything. Delaware played
the entire team without numbers,
although they wcre notified early in
the week by the noting graduate
manager at Penn. Coach Darby
offered no reason why his team ap
peared sans the numbers.

That Tenn team en .Saturday had
rnMd, and lets of it It was n revela
tion te the select few who have wit
nessed the squad in practice drills te
im hew they went up and down the
lti en Saturday. Big fellows like
Oenthncr. Thurmnn, Cochrane and
Bbtherlsnd are net tiwially fast, but en
Saturday they exhibited speed that must
life been latent during practice. The
end v.erk of Hill Grave nnd Carl 12r
tretavaafr left little te Ix desired. Their
Interference worked te perfection during
the afternoon, pnrtlculnrly when White
kill, Wrny, Mlllrr nnd I,ukas would
rwlnjt around the flanks.
ghlft Net t'sed Once
The first vnrslty eleven demonstrated
vlth straight foetbnll just whnt its
power was. The Helsman shift was
noticeable by Its absolute absence. The
only reminder was the shrill call of the
quarterback with his "hike." Helsmnn
himself stated that he was n llttte leary
ibeut the use of the shift, and until
such time as he could demonstrate it
te the officials would depend en ether
kinch of football.
Hex Wray's generalship was un
questioned. He handled the team like
the veteran he is, while his brilliant
running back of punts nnd skillful
dodging through n broken field was
something that will remain in the
memory when Red .pnd Blue football
heroes nre npeken' of.
Te run eighty-five yard twice in five
minutes for touchdowns after the kick
off Is a feat that hns never been ex
celled en Franklin Field. Seme have
run ns many ns ninety or ninety-five
yards for a, touchdown en n kiekeff, but
no player, at least In the last two dec
ades, can beast of scoring touchdowns
twice In five minutes from wltMn the
shadow of his own goal pests.
Wray's straight-arming, sidestepping
and dodging gave the fnns n thrill every
time he carried the leather. Fer a man
weighing 13.1 pounds it seems uncanny
for him te dump ever men weighing ns
much ns fifty pounds mere, nnd often
when they were all set for n tackle.
He proved ns tdippcry as an eel te the
Delnwnre team, who seemed unable te
step him before he had registered sub
stantial gnlns.
WhltclillI Scintilla'tVs
The entire bnckficld showed power
and speed. Mike Whiteuill, always
rated as n star, proved the right te be
thus catalogued by breaking through
the line for substantial gains every
time he carried the pigskin. Mike's
booting was nlse high cIsbs. He nver
nged n little better than forty ynrds te
the punt during the nftcrnoen. which
isn't bnd for this time of the jear. The
game was only n few minutes old when
Whltchlll ripped off twenty ynrds en a
sweeping end run.
The nnkle that bothered Whltchlll
se much last year steed the strain Sat
urday without a whimper, nnd Mike is
of the opinion thnt he is going te go
right through the Bensen without miss
ing a game. Iast year he was out of
most of the games because of the in
jured ankle.
Pes Miller, the veteran, free from
the cares of calling signals, which ham
pered his work InBt season, proved nn
Ideal running mate for Whltehlll nnd
Wrny. The Lebanon lad showed his
class time nnd again by making spec
tacular runs.
Jehnnv Lukes, the Shnmekln lad,
had little opportunity te display his
prowess, but when he did run with the
ball he left little doubt In the specta
tors minds that Helsman had made a
wise selection.
Helsman was net nlone In his praise
of the varsity. The head coach stated
With emphasis thnt the nlnjlng of the
second vnrslty In the fourth period
pleased him Immensely. The seconds
did valiant duty, particularly Vegclln.
McAnally nnd Dcrn. The Inst named
received an Injury en Saturday thnt
will probably keep him out of the game
for three or four weeks. He suffered
a broken bone in his shoulder that will
make playing Impossible. Dcrn will be
remembered ns the captain and center
of the freshman eleven last season. He
came te Penn from Salt Lake City,
Utah.
Oilier Coaches Praise Team
Hill Hellcnback, Bert Bell, Imv Le
vene nnd (ins Zlcgler were all enthusi
astic about the team. Bert Bell, who
captained the 1010 team thnt humbled
Delaware 8!l te 0. had the following te
say: "That crowd looked mighty
strong out there today. Of course, you
knew It Is enrly nnd Delnwnre was net
the strongest team In the world. How
ever, they looked like our old club did
bnck In 11)10. If they keep it up the
tenm should prove n stumbling block te
some of the se-called big tennis."
Big Bill Hellcnback chirped In with
the view that Bell's team would have
T,''c",VnH-v fnr ,n" year's nggregntlen.
Bud Hepper hald, "net a chnncc."
Bill Htewnrt, who played center, for
Delaware ngnfnst Penn In 1010, i-aid
.that this j ear's Penn eleven looked ns
geed te him as the one he plnycd
ngainst.
Conch Darby could net be found after
the game, but Captniu Holten. who Is
n great friend of Hex Wrny, said thnt
he believed Penn would have n wonder
ful season. "The team certainly leeks
strong. Thnt varsity backficld Is n
pippin. They nil knew hew te enrry
the bnll and hew te fellow their ln
tcrfVrence. "Believe me. I knew when I sny
thnt the line is strong nnd powerful.
The team Is n geed one. I hnvc no
nlibls te offer for our showing. We
nre in anything but geed shape, need
lighter games for this time of the ma
son. However, new that we are past
the Penn game. I think we will have a
geed team. Yeu have te hnnd It te that
crowd of ours." v

yesterday's game. In the Tedd match,
however, their defense was found for
seven goals. The shipbuilders yesterday

The consistency with which motorists
and truck owners stick te one gasoline is a
geed indication of its quality and service-satisfaction.
"I stick te Atlantic because in Atlantic I
knew what I'm getting, whether I buy it
today, tomorrow or next month; whether T
obtain my supply at the big city garage or
service station, or at the wayside pump. 1
stick te Atlantic because I can be sure 'there's
an A tlantic Pump en the read I am traveling'"
That is the voice of thousands of gasoline
wise motorists today. It carries the message
of absolute dependability and unequaled
convenience. Fer Atlantic is always of the
same uniformly high quality. And always
obtainable!
It is such solidly founded merchandising
principles such well-earned public confi
dence at has brought a steadily growing
majority of motorists and truck owners in
the State te use, believe in and stick te
ATLANTIC Gasoline.
And don't forget this: Today's Atlantic i,
