I What he wanis is ready for you VOW- Always PLEASED 1 miimlllllr Ml Reserved and Box Seats for the PITTSBURGH, Nov. 23. The University of Pittsburgh football team defeated the team from Georgia Tech nt, Forbes Field today by a score of 32 in 0. In a game featured by open work and very little line smashing. The running of Davlen, the Pnnther left halfback, was sensational.

Twice he took the ball from a Tech punt and ran 50 and ftf yards, respectively, for two touchdowns. Ho wan the best ground-gainer seen at Forbes Field thin year. Tho work of Easterriny was only vpry little behind thnt of Davies, while as usual, was successful in getting the center, although Conch Warner worked that plav much lews than usual. Pitt Indulged in forward passing considerably, and verv frequently gains were made at. a dangerous lime, for the visitors.

Toward the end of the game the best work of Tech was displayed" In their ability to intercept forward passes, and twice they were rescued from a dangerous situation bv the ability of Ouyn and Flowers to take the: forward passes meant for ritt player. 1 Pitt Scores In first Period, Pitt scored ft touchdown about half way through the first -period, when a forward pass from Davies to Easterday sent Kaster-day over the line, and Davies kicked goal. No further scoring was done, in the first 'luartei, but very soon after the resumption of play, the Blue and Gold scored their second touchdown when Guyon punted to Davies on tho flftv-yard line, and the latter ran the rest of the distance, shaking off the Tech tacklers and registering another score. He kicked goal and made the score to 0. Pitt worked the hall toward Tech's goal, and was very close- when the whistle ended the HrsC half.

Tech kicked off for the second half, and Gougler took the punt and ran back thirty yards before Stntou floored htm. However, gains were made around the ends by at the twenty-yard line, when a double TOrWarU paBB iroiU lucuureu unvivn up (of. th 1 ntter no over the goal Hue for tho third tonchdown.

McTjareii and Oougler were -used with success until the ball was worked to Tech's- six-yard line, and McLaren was pushed over for the fourth touchdown. Gougler missed goal and 'the score wsb 20 to 0, when the third period ended. Tech Stronger In Last Session. Tech played better football in the last period than at any time during the game.

Oliyou and Flowers, were very clever at Intercepting forward passes, which In a measure made up for the fumhllng in the early part of the game. 1 Several times Pitt was forced to kick, when they were unable to make first down on four times, but this availed the Southern team nothing as Pitt invariably took the ball away from them again. Davies ran 55 yards for a tonchdown In this period, making five In nil. itnd when he missed the kick at goal, the score became 32 to 0, which it remained to the niiish.

Blackloek, the big Indian, kicked the goal that scaled the fate of the middies' claim for bootbull suprcmncy in the East.

The game was a thriller from start to finish, and was marked by sensational Incident seldom 'witnessed. The sensation was coupled with Ellson's brilliant dash to a touchdown. It happened after the Great Lakes runner had sprinted to within the, thirty-yard mark of the navy's goal line and the last of the pursuing tacklers had been disposed of by his Interfere: when Saunders, one of the middles' first-string substitutes, dashed from his scat on the bench, out In tor the football nrena antTJirought the fleeing runner down frombehin(U General excitement-prevailed for time. andTtomo of the supporters of Great Lakes made rush for intruding middle, and began pummel -ing but nulet was soon restored, and the game proceeded.
