A crowd, estimated at 10,000 saw the contest, -which -Hft brought out two teams equal in one thing, attack, and both lacking in another, a strong defense. The Orangemen, who were beaten rasily by Pitt last year at Syracuse were fully 50 per cent better in all departments yesterday as compared with that of 1916. They had a good line, with wonderful center in Robertson, who performed in true All-American fashion a fast set of backs, faster than any other com PI, SS. sr.x: -Vrir V- 1 a if.

2S to 3. Wesley-an scored early in the first quarter when Westminster was forced to kick end Fisher received the ball on his own 35-yard line and from here rrshed the ball over for a touchdown in four plays. A pass front Fisher to Hymes netted 20 yards. Hymes went around right end for 20 yards and Beck went 13 through the line for the first touchdown. Westminster's score followed soon after this, when Armstrong dropped back and kicked a pretty drop.

Wealeyan scored her second touchdown near the close of the second quarter after having rushed the ball to Westminster's 10-yard line two times, only to lose it on fumbles. This score came as the result of some clever passes and runs by Snedegar. Beck and Hymes. Wealeyan received at the beginning- of the second half and after some exchanging of punts Capt. Beck carried the ball over for the third tally, making the score 21 to 3, for Fisher had kicked all three goals after the touchdowns.

At the beginning of the third quarter Coach Neale made a number of substitutions and the playing was rather slow until about three minutes before time was up they took a fresh start and Hymes carried the ball over for the fourth and final touchdown. Both teams got away with a number of forward passes and with spectacular runs of Capt. Beck. Hymes. Fisher and Snedegar, the game was a most Interesting one to watch.

The line plunging of Hymes was the best that has been teen on the local field for some time, while the defensive work of Calae was excellent.

His play was very much a reminder of Bob Peck, whose name always comes to mind when another center is to be spoken of for meritorious work. He was a power on the defense and his tackling back of the line might be compared with that which Peck did last year at Syracuse. Malone, Thompson and Schwarzer followed in featuring for their team. Capt. Carlson, V.

AUehouse, Rtahl, McClelland and McCarter did the most consistent work for the Blue and Gold. Carlson, in particular, played an exceptionally strong game at end. Foxy Miller was not in the game at quarterback for Pitt as his leg. hurt against Lehigh, did not round to well enough to permit his playing. Seidel, who had his shoulder bruised, was out of the sport, too.

Capt. Cobb, who was hurt against Rutgers last Saturday, was missins in the Syracuse lineup and Alexander played his left tackle. The history of the periods follow: FIRST QCARTER. Fyracuaa won the toss and defended the north goal. Sies started the pro-ceedlngs by kicking to Barsha on the lS-yard line.

Finsterwald. in three attempts, elided off left tackle to the 22-yard line. The attack of Finsterwald was Irrepressible and he fairly shot through the Pitt forwards. The ball was soon on the 18-yard line. Barsha and Finsterwald, however, were unable to make it a first down Sast the 17-yard line and Pitt had the all.

Pitt showed confidence in Its line attack by sending Easterday and Me- wren jnip me lorwarua tor inori aratna. Then Oouarler ran end 2 yaroa to the 41-yard line. Beinar out of the danger zone Pitt resorted to short passes and crisscrosses and was soon on the Syracuse 44-yard line. The Orangemen were incapable of checking the fast driving Pitt backs, who made short and consistent gains. The march was checked momentarily when lost three yards on a wide end run and when a long forward pass was grounded.

Syracuse, In a highly Improved form, and with such good individual material, might be expected to show better in the- total result.

But Pitt, like all championship combinations, did a llttla better and, when opportunities presented themselves to convert opponents' mistakes1 Into profit, Bccetped the prooflers and gained thereby. Pitt was fortunate in getting the breaks oC the game, recovering fumbles, once converting one of them Into a touchdown, which came in the fourth period, when Mikach, who toox Easterday's place, picked up the ball when Red Carlson tackled Malone savagely and retraced his steps only 13 yards for score. ItcLarmn'm Long Run. Another play which was a good break for Pitt and which gave McLaren a chance to shine happened In the second period. Syracuse had hammered its way right up to the portals of Pitt's goal line, but at the eight-yard line had to the ball through inability to proceed any farther.

Then, on the very first play that Pitt tried. McLaren tore into the left side of the Syracuse line. Ho went through as though there was no opposition, clean as a whistle. The secondary defense men were up close, but they were put out of the way by McLaren's co-workers. With a clean field in front of him.

except Meehan, who was out around the SO-yard line. McLaren ran straight toward the goal line, which was 93 yards away from the poist of scrimmage. Meeban stood waiting for him to come up. McLaren did not swerve but when he neared the Syracuse quarter, back he turned to the right, and Meeban, trying to make a quick turn himself, lost his balance and fell to the ground. That gave McLaren an open field and he ran away.

But rinsterwald gave chase and was out running the I'itt star within the final 14 yards. Anally grabbing him around the waist at the four yard line. McLaren was not brought to earth to be denied a touchdown, for be fairly threw himself toward tho goal line. Hi did not quite reach it but he got close enough to shove the ball over McLaren secured another touchdown in the subsequent period and it was due primarily to the vigilance of tho Pitt team. Meehan attempted to get a way a kick and Sies broke through and blocked iu Before a Syracuse man could get the ball, which was bounding out in the open and toward the Syracuse goal.

IWty secured it for Pitt by diving between two Orange-. it was Pitt's ball and only varda away from a tOUCnaown. it wi yarns away not long until the ball was across the goal line, as Pltfs attack could not be denied. iff CmncmaU Fancy Play. Pitt encompassed the defeat of Syracuse without revealing any of Its concealed fancy plays, being in a position now to hold them for W.

J-Its attack consisted principally of plays off tackle, through eenter and naasea. It is good, at that. that the playa worked successfully. xnat because the lftierrerento to the standard. The end runs Weak because of poor assistance, team, and something rare in a Put team.

The Orangemen rushed tha ball yards right Vp to th very shadow of tho Fitt goal line. But it had to make a complete surrender and Pitt, showing confidence in its power to cover ground through rushing, took the ball straight up the field without losing It for IS yards and touchdown. Only onca in the first half was a Vick resorted to and Meehan did It for Syracuse.

But thera was more kicking in the second half, and Pit gained. Oougler oumicaing who finally gave away to Malone.
