Fifteen yards were made in three running attacks, then Penn steadied, got its bearings, piled up the Cornell plays at th¢ scrimmage line and forced a forward pass from the Ithacans. The pass was intercepted by Joe Straus of the Quaker back- field. From that moment and all through the many moments that fol- lowed Penn outplayed the Cornellians and outplayed them in pronounced and comprehensive fashion. The Quakers made a vivid finish to a | checkered football season by top- pling the big Red team by a score of 28 to 0. Penn won with four touchdowns, one in the first, one in the second and two In the fourth period. They fin- | Ished strong, these Quakers, even when they had a cluster of light- weight backs taking the place of regulars, and they were so thorough- ly the masters of the Cornellians that the latter, who provided a poor game indeed, never were close enough to a point to make any Penn ad- herent feel the least bit uncomfort- able. The Pennsylvanians did everything better than Cornell, including out- fighting them, and made their abund- ance of points in spectacular ways. A combined forward pass and run, the two for a net gain of 47 yards, gave the first touchdown. A forward pass over the last strip of whitewash when Cornell was defending her own three yard line gave the second. A romp of forty-six yards by sprinting through the Cornell line gave the third. The fourth came from good line shatter- ing work from the Cornell seventsen yard mark. The lineup: broke | PENNSYLVANIA CORNELL . Finn Left End. Ward . . . Knauss Left Tackle.

A. Tendler was outweighed by nine pounds but outpointed Tilman There was nothing exciting about the tilt Tendler occasions to slip over a left to the chin or right to the solar plexus with knockout intentions but managed to keep out of ragnge of the southpaw's best offense weapons. Tilman kept both feet ®n the rosin at all times, though outpointed in every round, The Western lad welghed 142 against 133 for Tendler. JAOUKSON BEATS BROCK Philadelphia, Nov- 26 —Matt Brock of Cleveland proved no match for Willle Jackson of New York and the referee stopped the bout in the fourth round at the Olympia yester- day. The Cleveland vetetan at- tempted to fight Jackson with a punch that had less kick than the modern mince pie. In fact, the Ohio G. A. R. was punchless. All he did in the ten minutes or more of fighting was to tle up Jackson so much that Willie could not put over a slumberland punch. Referec Slim Brennan chased Brock out of the ring in the fourth round, Jackson was credited with a technical knockout, though he failed to floor the anelent Brock on a single occasfon NEW SWIMMING OOACH FOR HARVARD. | Cambridge, Mass., No 26.— | Michael Prendergast, formerly connec- ed with the/ Brookltne swimming team and two y-ars as coach at Brown, has been secured to | take charge of the Harvard tankmen the coming season.

New York, Nov. 26.—Flying at an average speed of three miles a minute | for the entirg 132-mile course, Capt. C. C. Mosley, U. S. A, drove the Ver- ville army racer to a smashing victory in the Pulitzer Trophy Race at Mitchel Field Mineola, yesterday. It wals a world's race record; and | the experts have no doubt that on the straightaways the world's mile speed record was broken, but the claim can- | not be substantiated. What is known | is that Mosley and his machine de- livered a peerless performance. Forty thousand people witnessed his | spectacular performance, and at its close, breaking down the ropes, swarmed across the fleld to extend their congratulations. Best of all, the great race, in which | thirty-four marchines were spurting at hurricane speed around a triangular course of thirty-three miles simul- taneously, was concluded without a single serious mishap. Average 178 Miles an Hour. Mosley's complete race record. which no plane at present built other than the one he himselt drove is like- 1y to beat, reads as foilows: First lap, 11 minutes 6.7 | second lap, 11 minutes .37 ! third lap, 11 minutes 7.208 | fourth lap, 11 minutes 15.82 | total, 44 minutes 29.57 seconds; aver- | age per hour, 178 miles. | His wonderful 600 horse-power Packard engine worked sweetly with- | in certain limitations. Its carburetion ! was below 100 per cent. efficient, with the consequence that the engie which is designed to deliver 1,900 revolutions per minute did not get above 1,700. In other words, it was more than 8 per | cent. below its possible maximum, which on paper shows a speed of 200 | lus, per hour. mlg‘e:é Ivesa notable was the second place race driven by Capt. H E. Hart- ney, with a Thomos Morse, 300 horse- power Wright motor.

Lightweight Champion Meets Joe Welling of Chicago at Garden. | New York, Nov. 26.—Opportunity will knock tonight at the door of Joe Welling of Chicago, who is to meet Benny Leonard. lightweight champion of the world, in a fifteen round con- test at Madison Square Garden. There is only one drawback. Leonard may knock harder than opportunity. | The champion has a disagreeable | habit of snuffing the hopes of amibi- , tious lightweights, and, while Welling may prove an exception to the rule, yet Leonard is always to be reckoned with up to the time the last blow is struck. However, it is the first time Welling had a chance to meet the present title holder in the ring, and the Chicogan naturally is bubbling over with enthusiasm and high hopes, RITOLA HOME FIRST, Berwick, Pa., Nov. ¢6.—John Romig, intercollegiate champion, won the tenth arual modified Marathon here | yesterday.
