One of the most
Our Team noteworthy features
Given Credit, in the victory of
Saturday is the way
in which the Philadelphia papers
recognize Penn State in rhe true
light in collegiate football.
The following is extracted from
the North American of Sunday.
“Every member of the Penn
State team deserves credit for his
part in the victory. The center
trio, Clark, Bebout and Hansen,
stood like a barrier all through the
game. Engle and Lamb, partic
ularly the former, justified their
reputations. Wilson, Very’s end
partner, tackled hard, and was down
rapidly on kicks, besides doing
valiant work in breaking up inter
ference.
The game was the deserved vic-
tory of a better team, with one star
looming out of a combination of
excellent work as the hero of one of
the most notable exhibitions of end
play ever seen on the local field.
This giant was Dexter Very, play
ing his last game against Penn.
The blonde right end did everything
except fly. On defense he pushed
Penn ends and halfbacks out of the
play as though they were so many
stuffed dolls. No matter how intri
cate the formation, how clever the
play, he instantly divined its desti
nation and was always where it
reached its crux, there to do what
was needful to foil it. He tackled
hard enough to separate the various
vertebrae in the spines of his
opponents, and he was glued to the
ball any time it happened to get
loose on a fumble.
On offense his work was equally
notable. He made the longest in
dividual run of the game, a 30-yard
gain. When for one period Mauthe
was out, Very did the kicking, and
punted superbly, either with or
against the wind.
Miller, Mauthe, Lamb, Engle and
Wilson were also notable perform
ers for the men from upstate, but
the game will always be remember
ed as the one in which Very attain
ed his finest form of a great career.
Very climaxed his work by the
wonderful catch of a forward pass
for a touchdown.
Miller shot a forward pass over
the line. Very was there to catch
it, but two men were near him, and
one actually had both arms around
the State star at the moment when
he went for the ball.
Half falling from his contact with
the Penn tackier, Very kept his feet,
eye and his nerve, and by a supreme
effort,t hrew out his arms' and
caught the ball for a touchdown,
ft was one ol the most wonderful
plays evei seen in a lootball game.
Miller did not get away for as
many brilliant runs as in last year’s
contest, but he displayed superb
generalship, handled punts fault
lessly and tackled hard any time he
got a chance at a Penn man.
Berryman and Welty, the half
backs, both played good football,
and made a number of gains. Ber
ryman was very much in evidence
on defense, and broke through and
stopped the Penn plays on a num
ber of occasions.
The growing impoitance of State
was evidenced in the splendid
crowd that turned out for the strug
gle. It suggested a far cry from the
days when State used to hold a
minor place on the red and blue
schedule, being sometimes a game
foi opening day, or even being de
generated into a Wednesday prac
tice contest.
Now it has a place on the sched
ule among the big contests, a re
sult partly due to the great work of
Bill Hollenback, a mighty Penn
captain of yesteryear, who in his
three years at State has never lost
a game, and has downed Cornell
and Penn twice each, a remarkable
record for the leader of a lesser col
lege. Probably not a man coaching
today can match it.”
From the Philadelphia Press: “To
that remarkable little quarterback,
“Shorty” Miller, belongs much of
the credit of State’s victory. He
directed the plays with excellent
judgment. It was his execution of
a fake shift and a forward pass
which made possible the touch
downs. He handled Minds’ diffi
cult punts with unfailing success.
He picked his way through the
Penn team several times for good
gains. Once when Minds sent a
high kick to State’s fifteen-yard
line and Penn tacklers were waiting
to down him, he displayed remark
able judgment by signalling for.a
free catch. Otherwise, he might
have been thrown over the line for
a safety.
Captain Mauthe was still another
wonderful performer, his punting
being sure and the kicks being
hard to handle. The State leader
was so badly used up during the
first half, when he plunged into the
Penn line time after time and finally
went over for a touchdown,
that he did not play
during the third period. He went
back again, however, in the fourth
and it was his kick, which was
fumbled, that afforded the oppor
tunity to get the second touch
down.”
The Ledger praises Miller: “This
was Miller, the diminutive quarter
back, immune from injury, übiquit
ous in presence, wonderful in an
open field, almost as sure as death
in the catching of punts, a little
demon on the defensive and a gen
eral of the Napoleonic type in driv
ing his team.”
