JP) Cor. hell's rapidly-improving football team proved itself too big, too strong and too fast for Columbia today but only one period did it show enough of ter for Roth's proteges, intercepted a pass on the Pennsburg 30 and dashed to paydirt.

That made it 14-7 as Bob Evans placekicked his second extra point, Princetor. 3 equalizing score in the second quarter was a dilly. For some reason, Penn elected to quick-kick on second down from its own 24, and touchdowns in the second quarter, one Quakers, Ranked Third in Nation Last Week, Fall Before Inspired Nassau Team Bv GAYLE TALBOT on an interception of a Columbia pass and the other on a 65 yard drive climaxed by a pair of forward passes.

Don Treffinger scooted to the one and Downing plunged over for the score. Charley Kershner's left end run netted the extra point, putting ths Greenies in the lead by 28-0. The Brey-coached crew scored In the last two minutes of the tussle on a 30 yard pass from Billy Echlicher to Jack Mensch who darted the last ten yards untouched. The try for extra point was blocked. Pennsburg's passing attack with Schlicher and Tony Tornetta switching on the aerial assignment cast a fearful spell on the Continued on Page 19, Column 1 Columbia Alumni Day crowd of 35 000, but their attack clicked only in ineffective spurts.

The victory, however, was enough to put Cornell in a commanding position in the race for, the Ivy League championship, since the supposedly unbeatable team fell by the wayside. with only one minute left to play gave Princeton Tigers a thrilling 17-14 1 victory over the University of Pennsylvania today in one of the greatest upsets of the 1946 season.

Kitchenman had ordered his 350 men scheduled to end their tour of duty at 4 p.m. to remain in event of trouble but only 10O were used. The disturbance was over in approximately 30 minutes. Rivalry between Munger and Princeton Coach Charlie Caldwell has been friendly. The two are old chums and Caldwell is known to have sent Munger suggested plays in years when the two universities did not meet.

The linetms: i i ni crew from old Nassau, and the triumph that Keuflel boot provided was richly deserved. It was the first victory ever scored by the Tigers on Franklin field. From midway of the second quarter crowd of 72,000 had watched the two teams struggle to break a 14-14 de-dlock and it looked as though they would have to settle for a tie until, with the big clock registering exactly a minute to go, Keuflel put all his 185-pounds behind his placekick. The ball just barely cleared the crossbar as Perm's followers sat in stupefied silence. Penn, regarded as the ranking power cf the East with the exception of Army, entered the game a 28-point favorite to trounce the Tigers, who had only broken even in four games and had beaten no better teams than Brown and Rutgers.

Perm's huge for-. ward wall outweighed the Nassau linemen 23 pounds to the man. Starting confidentially the Quakers scored first in nine minutes on an eight-yard reverse by Bob Deuber, but within little more than a minute the Tigers had come back to knot it at 7-7 on a spectacular 26-yard pass into the end zone from Dick West to Ernest Ransom. Shortly after, Ran-some was hit heavily by three Perm tacklers and was carried from the field on a stretcher with a badly injured Before the first period ended, Penn 'fame back to score the second time on an 80-yard march during- which it "dropped the single wing back offense particular point was a mystery. And there matters stood through the entire third quarter, and right up to the instant of Keuffel's historic kick.

The Tiger's however, had much the better of the entire second half. Led by John Powers, a hard-running sophomore fullback, Princeton put on one 54-yard march in the third period down to Penn's 17, and again in the fourth they punched from the Penn 43 to the two-yard stripe before they were piled up. Powers personally accounted for nine of Princeton's 14 first downs and piled up 70 yards on 22 plunges. Penn made only ten first downs. The Quakers netted 210 yards by rushing to Princeton 119, but the Tigers gained 99 yards in the air to Penn's 41.

The Tigers threatened twice in the final quarter, driving first to Penn's two and again to the four. Both times the Quakers held. Police Inspector Herbert Kitchen-man said Patrolman Frank Dubree was treated at the Penn infirmary for cuts around the mouth received in the fracas. Four spectators were held for awhile in the Penn field house, Kitchenman said. The trouble began, Kitchenman said, when group of rooters stormed the goal posts amid boos and cheers.
