While the pupils of Glenn Warner gained more ground, had more first downs and held the ball longer than Pennsylvania, the Red ana Blue was able time and again TO stave them off when they were within scoring dis lance. The Pennsylvania line, out weighed, was not outplayed. Pittsburg’s end sweeps were the undoing of the Pennsylvania teams chances. Anderson and Flanagan gained consistently by this method but the famous double pass of other years failed each time.
