...play which requires a strong team to back it, and even then it has been proved ineffective against a team of equal strength. The few gains the Pennsylvania players were able to make were on clever trick plays and on a variation of Princeton's old revolving wedge. At one time only did they get the ball within Harvard's 25-yard line, when Wallace ran 30 yards, but then they could make no impression on Harvard's line.

The members of the club are brought together socially in the fortnightly smokers and by the entertainments given by the Glee, Mask and Wig, and Garrick Clubs in the Auditorium. THE PENNSYLVANIAN...
