Davis. In the presence of what is doubtless be the largest crowd that ever witnessed a football game in Pittsburg, the husky warriors from the University of Pennsylvania and Glenn Warner's perfectly trained Pitt machine are meeting today in a battle which has a most decided bearing on the gridiron championship of the Keystone etate. The eves of the football world are on Pittsburg today as the gallant Quakers tackle the Panther phalanx.

-Pitt's great team goes into the, game with a record of consecutive victories for this an3 a string of straight triumphs in 1915. Old Penn has not been so fortunate, but Coach Folwell has been pointing his men for this contest, and believes, he lias succeeded in bringing them up to a point of preparedness and efficiency which will surprise their opponents. Two weeks ago Swarthmore took the mesure of the Penn eleven, and a few calamity howlers mt once predicted disaster for Folwell's men. But Coach Bob regarded the backset as a blessing in disguise, and so it proved. Last Saturday the Quakers wiped up the gridiron with Dick Harlow's highly touted Penn State team.

The Pitt team came near suffering defeat in their game with the Navy two weeks ago. They won by a single point a game which was marked by many fumbles and considerable work which did not appeal in the least to Coach Warner. But the big Cornellian also regarded that near-backset as disguised blessing. It helped to point his men JOHNSON A few weeks ago made a great bluff at getting rid of Joe Lannin because Lannin attacked the American league umpires. Let Johnson deal with irom iselrtel at 0H down to Carlson, who tips the beam at 108.

Their opponents of the Jted and Blue crowd carry exactly pounds less in the aggregate, an average of one pound less 1S5. Their lightest man also is the left end, Urquhart, who carries only 152 pounds, -while big Hcnning is listed at 210 and Little at 202. In the backfield, the Pitt average is 16S, and the Penn first string backs have an advantage, their average being 1722 the heaviest man in either backfield is Benn Derr, 100, and the lightest Jim Morrow of Pitt, with 15S pounds. The average weight of the entire eleven is 1S0 pounds. In the case of the Pennsylvania team, and 17Ji for Pitt just a pound to the man difference.
