The unefeated Cornell team which
has not even been tied and whose
supporters claim for it a share of
the championship generally awarded
to Yale, will play the University of
Pennsylvania at Philadelphia. The
time was when the Cornell game was
a glorious finale for Penn, with Cor
nell a pitiful victim. But the posi
tions are reversed as the hour of the
kickoff now approaches. Penn is not
conceded a chance to win and the
team was ripped apart last week in
a desperate effort of Coach Lou
Young to assemble a team of men
who, if they can’t play star football,
at loast can be counted on to make
a fight.
Dartmouth, which beat Harvard but
spoiled a great record by losing to
Cornell, plays Columbia in New York.
The Pittsburg Panthers, in their last
game under Pop Warner who goes to
California next year, will play their
favorite rivals, Penn State. State has
by far the better record but Pitt has
been improving in the last weeks of
the season.
And at Morgantown, W. Va... the
West Virginia Mountaineers, whose
worst showing was a tie with Penn
State, will meet Washington and Jef
ferson in the ultimate commotion of
a successful season.
Everywhere in the east this year
the sporting atmosphere has been
saturated with football interest, and
the crowds at the big games wer*
limited only by the generous capac
ities of the amphitheatres. Maryland
Brown. Dartmouth, Syracuse and St.
John’s of Brooklyn, a secondary
school which was not defeated, all
distinguished their names.
Only Cornell and Yale have been
undefeated and united in this part
of the country.
