World High rank must be given Cornell among the football teams of the East rank even with the Penn State and Lafayette. Comparative scores are misleading, but there was nothing misleading about the driving, crunching offense which carried Cornell to six touchdowns against Penn on Franklin Field, or the staunch, compact defense which held the Quakers to a lone first down and an actual loss of 33 yards on the running game from scrimmage. The full strength of Cornell's offense was developed largely through the best Interference I've seen this Eear, and this Is said with the Notre ame team in mind and Penn State too. It was a combination of what may be called "blanket" interference and lose Interference. The runner usually started off behind a wall and was so well covered that there was no getting to him.

Then, as the need arose, the interference would split as one Penn tackier after another was out" of the play. I would like to see Cornell in a game with Lafayette or Penn State or Pittsburgh and do not hesitate to say that I'd risk a little wager on that hard-charging, well-equipped team from Ithaca. Walsh in 5. T. World No list of the ten leading backs of the year can, or ever will be, complete without Raw's name.

Perhaps not as fast as Killinger of Penn State, he yet summons the same evasive, buck jumping, epileptic stepping through a secondary defense that marks Killinger's running, and in respect to the straight arm and the use thereof, Kaw could give lessons by correspondence course to any back-field man in the East. Once he straight-armed a Penn forward and the latter merged with the Blimy turf as a thumb tack is pressed down by an architect's digit. On other and many occasions he pushed ambitious tacklers away more gently, perhaps, but with none the less insistence. And how this gifted individual could reverse his course as suddenly as he did on that splotchy mess of chocolate pudding they called a football field will forever remain a mystery deep and impenetrable. It was one of the best Cornell teams that ever played football, second reputed to have a weak line, but If that line was weak, then Hercules and Atlas are feather-weights.

Princeton must play Chicago In a return game in Chicago next fall and as it will be necessary to journey to Cambridge in November for the clash with the Crimson, the week before the Yale game, it would be asking much to face the Middies, also.
