ESTABLISHED PRICE FIVE CENTS Nittany Gridmen Miss Chance for Tie on Faulty Kick SOPHOMORE BACKS LEAD OFFENSE AGAINST OWLS Morrison's Spectacular Running Features Play—Brewster, Capl. Collins Score Hy SIDNEY 11. BENJAMIN M 3 ‘ Cynics will claim that “they still pay off on victories,” but the thousands who saw the Nit tany Lions battle a heavy, favor ed Temple eleven to a standstill in the final game of the season Saturday carry in their minds the vision of a plucky band of underdogs rising to the heights, even though Temple won the de cision by the slim margin of a placement-kick, 13-to-12. Outweighed some twenty-four pounds to a man and not con ceded a chance of victory by a single Philadelphia sportswritcr, the Lions swept the Owls off their feet with a brilliant first quarter running attack, shifted to the air early in the second quarter to tally the first touch down of the game, doggedly held the heavy Temple backs for downs time after time, and then came back in the last quarter with an ad vance down the field whose culmina tion very nearly evened the count .with their undefeated foes. Thus was the tradition that Lion teams play inspired games in-Phila delphia upheld with honor. Play for play, man for man, the Lions matched their highly-touted adversaries,’ fail ing only when a successful place kick from the toe of Captain Collins would have meant a tie, but bearing the Lions share of the glory.in return for the short end of the score. , Sophomores Star Flashing the most spectacular brok en-field running exhibited by a Nit tany back in recent years, Merrill Morrison, the sophomore will-o’-thc wisp, had the Temple defenders be wildered from the opening whistle. The Philadelphia halfback celebrated his return to home territory by click ing off gains which ranged from ten to twenty-five yards apiece. His legs charging like pistons, he tore the Owl line to shreds, and once clear, his [speed made him a difficult man to i bring down. Only slightly less effective in the Nittany offense was the running at tack displayed by Harry Sigel, the line-plunging of Leo Skemp, and the forward-passing combination of Col lins and Lohr. The latter two, to gether with the two wingmen, Tom Slusser and Jesse Brewster, made the Lior. aerial attack more dangerous than it has been at any time this sea son. It was Brewster and Slusser, too, who stood out on the Nittany defense. These two seemed to bo everywhere, smearing a surprising number of Temple plays before they got started, and batting down many of the Temple passes. The whole line, in fact, play ed a defensive game which met the power-house plays of their heavy op ponents with a stubbornness which, forced the Owls to resort to the air fo«r their important gains. Not n small factor in the defense, too, was the splendid kicking of Captain Cai lins, which often put the Owls- at a disadvantage. Lions Score First So much thrill-laden action was crowded into the sixty minutes of vicious football that it is difficult to know where to begin. After receiving tho kick-off, Temple soon learned that the Nittany forwards meant business and was forced to kick. 'Captain Collins returned a punt to the Owl 9-yard line, and when Temple kicked back again to the State 47- (Conthmed on i>
