Penn moved seven yards in three plays, so Warren punted and Penn got a break.

Whelan of Cornell, hobbled the punt when Lemonick, Penn's guard, hit him and Assif, the other guard, recovered for the Quakers on the Cornell 12. From there it took Penn eight plays, all though the line, to land in the end sone for the touchdown. Corbo and Bagnell did the lugging, with the former slugging over the Cornell left guard from a yard out. Agoch's conversion attempt was wide.

Engel then made five, Fleishmann three, Engel three and Fleisch-mann, needing a yard on fourth down, slamming five to the 25. Bell, Penn's negro end, came mashing in to spill Engel for a three-yard loss and Rhoades intercepted a Calvo pass on the next maneuver. But, on Penn's first llay, Bagnell fumbled after picking up a yard and Marchant, a halfback, fell on the leather on the eight.

Opening from its own 49, Cornell slogged 51 yards to its second touchdown. Merz, Seidenberg, Scazzero and Calvo showed amazing nimbleness in the gooey going. Merz opened the parade with a 10-yard thrust. Then it was Seidenberg for seven and Scazzero for seven more.
